The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her
Chapter 258 Willing to admit defeat
After a long time, Ji Wuyuan raised his hand and slowly pinched his eyebrows, the expression on his face was unclear.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Feiyu asked with concern.
"Should we call the imperial physician over?"
Ji Wuyuan raised his eyes, and there seemed to be a layer of darkness in front of his eyes, with a hint of red faintly visible.
He waved his hand, and Feiyu retreated wisely.
Who doesn't know that His Majesty favors this Imperial Concubine the most?
But who would have known that this imperial concubine who usually looked delicate and gentle could be so hidden?
Going deep into the enemy camp and killing hundreds of men on the mountain by herself, how could an ordinary woman do this?
It's really... too crazy.
It's only been a few days, how did the situation develop to this point?
If it were him, he would probably not be able to accept it for a while, let alone the emperor whose majesty is inviolable.
After Feiyu left, he and Jiang Wantang were the only ones left in the room.
He stared at Jiang Wantang who was sleeping in front of him without blinking, with such complex and strong emotions. His eyes were like deep ink, and like the night that was so thick that it could not be dissolved.
As night fell, moonlight shone through the window onto Jiang Wantang's face, making her pale complexion look even more fragile and unconsciously arousing pity.
Ji Wuyuan held her little hand tightly and looked at her silently for a long time.
As he watched, a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his lips, with a hint of unspeakable bitterness.
He recalled the first time he felt pity for Jiang Wantang.
It happened in Concubine Qi's Chonghua Palace. It was raining heavily at the time. She was beaten with a stick by Concubine Qi until her body was covered in blood. However, she still refused to beg for mercy. She crawled in front of him stubbornly, boldly grasped the corner of his robe, and begged him to do it for her.
In the heavy rain, she was covered in blood and looked like a poor kitten begging for mercy from its owner.
And for some unknown reason, he took the oil-paper umbrella from the guard and tilted it slightly towards her.
Once the umbrella tilts, my heart will naturally tilt with it...
Later, she said she wanted to make a bet with him for three months.
This extraordinary move was unique, but it did succeed in arousing his interest.
But at that time, he was cold-hearted and had no idea what love was. He thought that she was just the most beautiful one among the many women in the harem, so what was wrong with playing with her?
She wanted the emperor's favor, and he gave it to her.
Anyway, what he wanted were useful chess pieces and interesting prey, and they each got what they needed.
Who knew that, as the drama between the emperor and his favorite concubine went on, he took it seriously and lost all sense of propriety...
In this way, the development of events deviated further and further from the original trajectory.
Now that he thought about it, he was initially deceived by her appearance of being weak and easily bullied.
The chance encounter outside Chonghua Palace that day, how she later angered Concubine Qi and was caned, how her maid stopped the emperor's carriage to ask for help, and how she aroused his pity and interest, were all just her carefully planned plans.
She put herself in the game and lured him into the trap.
Breaking down his defenses step by step...
He thought that perhaps she had been planning how to plot against him since the day she entered the palace.
Ji Wuyuan smiled and regained his composure.
He murmured, as if talking to himself, "Jiang Wantang, which part of you is the real you?"
"You are the first one who dares to plot against me, deceive me, and use me like this..."
"If it were someone else, they would have died long ago."
But there was a voice in my heart saying: "Ji Wuyuan, if you are willing to gamble, you should admit defeat."
He curled his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yeah, I'm willing to accept the loss..."
"Even if I knew all this, even if I was angry, I couldn't bear to treat you like that..."
"It's not just that I'm reluctant, I even feel like if there was a way, I could bear all this pain for you."
"My Tang'er must live a long and healthy life."
"..."
However, Jiang Wantang frowned at this moment. She dreamed that Ji Wuyuan was furious and sent people to hunt her down after he discovered that she had deceived him.
Jiang Wantang slept for three full days.
And Ji Wuyuan also guarded her for three whole days.
The first person to breathe a sigh of relief that she woke up so quickly was the imperial physician. Otherwise, he would have looked at Ji Wuyuan's gloomy face every day, fearing that he would order someone to drag him away and chop him to pieces in the next second.
Just before her eyelashes trembled and she was about to wake up, Ji Wuyuan had already stood up and left.
When Jiang Wantang woke up, he felt around and said in a hoarse voice, "It's so dark, why don't you light a candle?"
At this time, it was noon. Yun Shang and the imperial physician looked at the bright sun outside, and their eyes suddenly widened.
Especially Yun Shang, she raised her hand and waved it in front of Jiang Wantang, who just stared straight ahead without moving.
Even Ji Wuyuan, who had already walked into the yard, stopped and quickly turned back.
Ji Wuyuan gave him a sharp look, and the imperial physician immediately reacted and checked Jiang Wantang's eyes.
At this moment, Jiang Wantang also realized that it was not because it was dark, but because she could not see.
She didn't cry or make a fuss. On the contrary, she calmly cooperated with the imperial physician's examination.
The imperial physician examined the patient carefully and found no signs of injury in or around the eyes. The only conclusion he came to was that the eyes had been congested for too long, injuring the eyes and causing temporary blindness.
After hearing this, Ji Wuyuan's clenched heart finally relaxed a little.
I wish I wasn't blind.
She has such beautiful eyes, it would be such a pity if she lost her sight.
Then he turned and left again.
After he left, Jiang Wantang looked in the direction Ji Wuyuan had left. Although she couldn't see anything, she intuitively felt that there was someone there.
The imperial physician went out to prescribe and boil medicine for Jiang Wantang, leaving Yun Shang alone in the room to talk to Jiang Wantang.
Yun Shang looked at Jiang Wantang who had finally woken up, and hugged her excitedly while crying and laughing: "Sister, you finally woke up, you scared us to death..."
Jiang Wantang raised his hand and patted her back, comforting her: "It's okay, it's okay..."
The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Wantang asked about the follow-up matters of Wuming Mountain and the remaining women.
She remembered that before she passed out, she had asked Ji Wuyuan to kill all the men on the mountain...
Yun Shang held her hand and replied, "Don't worry, sister. His Majesty has ordered that all the limbs of those beasts be chopped off, and that thing be destroyed..."
