The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Jiang Wantang had just come out for a casual walk, but unexpectedly, as soon as she came out, she heard a few young palace maids whispering in the corner.

A palace maid asked, "I heard that the Saint of the Nanyue Kingdom is the former Princess Liuli. Is that true?"

A palace maid whispered back, "Of course it's true. I saw it with my own eyes at the banquet just now. It was her."

Another palace maid exclaimed, "No wonder when I passed by the rockery just now, I saw His Majesty standing with a woman from afar..."

"Alas, your Majesty has been thinking about Nangong Liuli for many years, and now he has finally got her back. It's not surprising that old feelings have rekindled. But it's a pity for that imperial concubine. She has only been favored for a short time, and now she is afraid that she will fall out of favor..."

"But I think the Imperial Concubine is obviously prettier than that Princess Liuli. Besides, since His Majesty dotes on the Imperial Concubine so much, she won't necessarily fall out of favor..."

"What's the point of being favored? After all, I'm not the one that His Majesty holds dear. No matter how much I'm favored, I can only be promoted to the position of Imperial Concubine..."

"But Nangong Liuli is different. His Majesty has always reserved the position of Queen for her."

"..."

Jiang Wantang listened to the conversation of several palace maids, curled the corners of her lips, turned around and walked towards the rockery.

She wanted to see with her own eyes what it was like for a man to be in love with a woman to be interested in her...

Imperial Garden, near the rockery.

As Jiang Wantang approached, he heard a female voice coming from not far away.

"Brother A Yuan, I'm back..."

"I'm here to marry you..."

Behind the rockery, Nangong Liuli was looking at Ji Wuyuan, whose face was stern, with a sad look. His red eyes and aggrieved tone were so moving that no man could remain unmoved.

Seeing Ji Wuyuan was indifferent, Nangong Liuli continued: "Brother Yuan, during these years when you were away, I missed you all the time..."

"I endured countless difficult days just by thinking of you."

Her words were sincere and didn't sound fake.

She had indeed survived all the way by relying on her hatred and murderous intent towards Ji Wuyuan.

Ji Wuyuan sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice: "Miss me?"

"Are you wondering when I will die?"

"If I remember correctly, the person you really fell in love with back then was my seventh brother Ji Wuwang, right?"

Nangong Liuli was stung by his words, but her face remained unchanged, and she said in a wronged tone: "Brother Yuan, I was young and ignorant at the time, and I couldn't see my own feelings clearly. After I left, I realized that the person I really loved was you."

Ji Wuyuan just looked at her coldly without responding.

At this moment, Nangong Liuli caught a glimpse of a red figure walking towards the rockery. Her eyes lit up and she suddenly reached out to grab Ji Wuyuan's arm.

As soon as she stretched out her hand, Ji Wuyuan suddenly waved his sleeve away.

Nangong Liuli looked at him with a sad look in her eyes: "Brother Yuan, I know you are just angry with me, but you shouldn't deliberately find a woman to be my substitute, right?"

"Now that I'm back, and I'm the Saint of the Southern Moon Kingdom, let's join forces to stir up trouble in the Southern Moon Kingdom and take it into our own hands, okay?"

"Brother Yuan, I'm willing to risk everything for you, just believe me..."

Ji Wuyuan's face was cold, and he asked with a smile: "Substitute?"

Nangong Liuli nodded and deliberately raised her voice a bit, "Well, the rumor in this palace is that the imperial concubine is my substitute. Everyone knows that the person you have been thinking about has always been me. You favor her because she has eyes similar to mine."

"And this harem position is still vacant. Isn't it because they are waiting for my return?"

"Now I'm back. You'll be the emperor, and I'll be the queen. We'll be together forever, never to be apart again..."

When Jiang Wantang came over, the first thing she heard was the word "substitute" from Ji Wuyuan's mouth.

Ji Wuyuan had his back to her, so she couldn't see the expression on his face.

She looked at Nangong Liuli's red eyes and pitiful look, the way she cried to Ji Wuyuan with sincere feelings, and the words "You are the emperor and I am the queen", and suddenly felt it was boring and turned away.

Just after Jiang Wantang left, Ji Wuyuan sneered, his tone extremely cold: "You said Tang'er is your substitute?"

Nangong Liuli didn't say anything, but her expression said it all.

"Nangong Liuli, where do you get the confidence to say that Gu's Tang'er is your substitute?!"

Ji Wuyuan looked her up and down, his eyes filled with disdain and contempt, and he sarcastically said, "From head to toe, how can you compare to her?"

"You two are in heaven and earth, the difference is like heaven and earth."

So under the bright sunshine, the expression on Nangong Liuli's face instantly froze and stiffened...

"As for those rumors you mentioned... Aren't you the one who knows best how they came about?" Ji Wuyuan's eyes were filled with frivolous sarcasm, as cold as ice.

"I've never liked you. Do you think I don't know that you deliberately spread those rumors back then?"

"I have never taken you seriously, so naturally I have never taken your methods seriously."

"Back then, you thought Ji Wuwang was the prince most likely to ascend to the throne, so you showed your affection to him while deliberately spreading rumors that Gu Xin liked you, hoping to arouse Ji Wuwang's jealousy..."

"Later, seeing my rise, she turned back and expressed her love to me from time to time. While she was infatuated with Ji Wuwang, she was also dreaming of seducing me..."

"He has a face that wants everything, which makes people lose their appetite."

Nangong Liuli clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh. She bit her lower lip tightly, and it took a long while before she let go. "I don't believe it! I don't believe you don't have any feelings for me. There are so many women in the harem, why do you have to fall for Jiang Wantang, who is somewhat similar to me?"

Ji Wuyuan sneered, his tone mocking: "Because in my opinion, you two are not alike at all."

"Lonely Tang'er, like the bright moon in the sky, spotless..."

"And you are just a puddle of mud under my feet!"

Ji Wuyuan looked at Nangong Liuli's increasingly embarrassed expression, the smile on his lips widened, and his tone became cruel.

"Nangong Liuli, are you a lowly person? I have already wiped out all nine of your Nangong clan, and yet you still come running over here eagerly to curry favor with me."

He pulled the corner of his mouth, not giving her a chance to buffer, and laughed sarcastically: "What a pity, I hate self-righteous women like you the most..."

"Are you worthy enough to be my queen?"
