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

Chapter 400 Ji Wuwang Returns to Beijing

Ji Wuyuan stood in the corridor outside the palace, gazing into the distance with a deep gaze. The cold wind blew up his ink-black dragon robe, making it rustle.

His fingers carelessly rubbed the black jade ring between his fingers, and his eyes were filled with a cold and piercing light...

"Someone come here." Ji Wuyuan spoke in a deep voice, his tone as cold as ice.

The leader of the secret guards, Fei Yu, suddenly appeared out of thin air, landed behind him, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty."

Ji Wuyuan's tone was cold and gloomy, and he spoke with great emphasis, "Martial law is in place in the city. Tomorrow, security in the palace will be increased several times. I will not allow even a fly to escape."

Fei Yu's expression was solemn: "Yes, I understand!"

"Also," Ji Wuyuan paused and continued, "Are you sure there's no movement in the northern border?"

Compared to Xie Zhiyan who is now powerless, he is more afraid of the King of Zhenbei Ji Wuwang who commands a large number of troops in the northern border.

Fei Yu was startled and said truthfully, "Your Majesty, according to the spies in the northern border, the King of Zhenbei was stabbed in the chest that day, causing severe external and internal injuries. The injuries recurred several times during the journey, and he has been bedridden since returning to the northern border."

"Our people have personally examined the patient's pulse. He has severe internal and external injuries, is overworked and depressed, and doesn't look well..."

"Also, our people haven't found any suspicious individuals near the capital."

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuyuan nodded thoughtfully.

Then, he said in a deep voice, "If anyone suspicious approaches, kill them without mercy."

"Yes." Feiyu responded and retreated.

At the same time, outside the capital, the small group of people had mixed in with the passing caravans and entered the city quietly.

Soon, they arrived at a remote and deserted house.

The tall and straight man in the lead raised his hand and took off the felt hat on his head, tearing off the mask on his face, revealing a cold and handsome face like jade.

It was the King of Zhenbei, Ji Wuwang.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Feng and Shi Lin, who were standing beside him, also tore off the disguise on their faces.

The originally empty mansion was suddenly filled with various disguised secret guards kneeling.

"This subordinate greets the Lord!"

Ji Wuwang nodded slightly, his clear eyes sweeping over the people kneeling on the ground. His voice was cold and clear: "Has anyone come to look for you since I left the capital?"

Upon hearing this, the secret guards looked at each other in bewilderment, then shook their heads and said frankly, "My lord, no."

Ji Wuwang understood in an instant, and a hint of sadness appeared in his cold eyes.

She had no use for any of the men he left for Jiang Wantang.

Soon, Ji Wuwang collected his thoughts and asked, "Is there any news from the palace?"

The leading secret guard stepped forward and reported respectfully, "My Lord, nothing unusual has been discovered in the palace. The tyrant is about to get married, and the palace is under extremely tight security these days. We, your subordinates, dare not act rashly."

"But rest assured, my lord. We are all prepared as you instructed. If the situation changes, we will just wait for your order and then we can act."

Ji Wuwang's brows showed a hint of fatigue, and he raised his hand slightly: "Everyone, leave."

"Yes!" the secret guards responded in unison.

Then, they quickly dispersed and disappeared from every corner of the house, as if they had never appeared.

After everyone left, Shi Lin saw Ji Wuwang's unhappy face and stepped forward to comfort him, "Your Highness, please go inside and rest for a while. You haven't had a good rest after traveling for so many days."

"Since there's no news coming out of the palace, it means Second Miss Jiang is fine. You can relax a little."

Ji Wuwang didn't say anything, but he didn't go into the house to rest either.

He stood alone in the yard, not knowing what he was thinking.

Shi Lin could more or less guess something. After all, the girl he had loved in his heart for many years would really get married tomorrow and become his sister-in-law.

No matter who it is, it will not be easy.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the cold wind is howling...

Inside the palace, Jiang Wantang opened her eyes not long after Ji Wuyuan left.

She supported herself with her hands and sat up. As she moved, a blur spread across the bed covers...

It has been like this for the past few days. Jiang Wantang went from being ashamed and angry at first to being numb now.

In the past, Ji Wuyuan would clean it up for her afterwards, but now, in order to help her get pregnant as soon as possible, he left it untreated.

Ji Wuyuan kept her in bed with him every day, and he was determined to make her pregnant.

Not only that, Jiang Wantang had no doubt that he had the imperial physician add tranquilizers to her fertility-enhancing medicine, so she spent most of her daytime sleep and had no time to sit down and think alone.

Through these few days, Jiang Wantang had already understood what kind of madman he had provoked.

She had long been fed up with such a depressing and suffocating life.

While Jiang Wantang was thinking, Leng Mei and Leng Xue came in to help her wash and dress.

The two men looked at the stunningly beautiful woman in front of them, who was covered in scars and sat silently on the bed. She looked listless and seemed to have lost all her life.

Even though they have become accustomed to such scenes in recent days, they still couldn't help feeling a little sad.

As early as half a month ago, Jiang Wantang's domineering and arrogant appearance had already been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

At that time, they only felt that being a noble concubine, the future queen, being favored by the emperor, second only to the emperor and above everyone else in the palace, sounded so noble and glorious.

Before this, they even thought Jiang Wantang was arrogant and had no sense of propriety because she always disobeyed her master.

But at this moment, they actually felt some sympathy and pity for this beautiful favorite concubine.

They could also see that His Majesty really loved her terribly.

But this love is too obsessive and heavy.

It's unbearable...

Leng Mei and Leng Xue walked towards Jiang Wantang silently. At this moment, Ji Wuyuan walked in from outside.

He saw Jiang Wantang sitting on the couch in a daze, her face flushed and a little dazed from having just woken up. One glance and he couldn't look away.

Even though everyone was kneeling and paying their respects, Jiang Wantang still sat there blankly, without any reaction.

Ji Wuyuan clenched his fists unconsciously. When he saw her waking up, he felt a rare bit of nervousness and uneasiness in his heart.

He didn't show it on his face, and looked at Jiang Wantang with feigned indifference, walking towards her...
