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

Chapter 87 The Emperor's Indifference

Jiang Wantang felt the heat from his palm, which was transferred to her own hand bit by bit.

The kiss was gentle and delicate, but the action was extremely domineering and strong, with an irresistible force.

Invading inch by inch, conquering cities and plundering territories...

Just like him, no matter how gentle his smile appears on the surface, he is actually cold, arrogant, domineering and strong in his bones.

It was unknown how long it took before Jiang Wantang walked out of the imperial study with red and swollen lips and a flushed face.

Before he had walked far, he met Lady Zhang, who was wearing a gorgeous plum-red long dress. Her hair was tied up high, with swaying golden hairpins, and she was wearing heavy makeup. With a condescending look on her face, she looked like a smug villain.

Concubine Zhang saw Jiang Wantang walking out of the imperial study from afar. Now when she got closer, she found that her face was flushed and she was extremely charming. The jealousy and resentment in her eyes became even deeper.

His eyes turned, and he suddenly remembered something, and a malicious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

She walked forward, bowed, and said reluctantly, "Greetings, Concubine Jiang."

Jiang Wantang nodded slightly and was about to leave, not wanting to pay any attention to her.

Faced with her blatant disdain and neglect, Lady Zhang gritted her teeth in anger, and suddenly laughed softly as she passed by.

"Jiang Jieyu is so lucky to receive such favor from His Majesty." Concubine Zhang said with a sarcastic smile.

Jiang Wantang did not stop and ignored her sour words.

Lady Zhang smiled, then suddenly raised her voice, "You're enjoying yourself, but I feel bad for your imprisoned brother. I'm afraid he can't even get a full meal now, right?"

“It’s really chilling!”

Jiang Wantang's heart sank suddenly. He turned around and walked to Lady Zhang, his eyes stained with scarlet. "What did you just say?!"

"My brother is a man of honor and has always been law-abiding. How could he be in jail?"

Seeing this, Concubine Zhang's smile widened, her eyes filled with pride. She feigned surprise and asked, "Jiang Jieyu didn't know this?"

"His Majesty dotes on you so much, didn't he tell you?"

Jiang Wantang lost his patience. He reached out and grabbed Lady Zhang's skirt, pulling her towards him, angrily saying, "Speak clearly!"

Concubine Zhang looked at Jiang Wantang, whose aura had suddenly become fierce and terrifying, with a look of fear on her face. She trembled and said, "I'm telling you... let go first."

Jiang Wantang let go of her hand. Concubine Zhang unconsciously took a few steps back, smoothed her wrinkled sleeve, and calmed herself down before saying, "While you and His Majesty were enjoying each other's company in Beishan, your brother Jiang Huaizhou was implicated in a case of embezzling military funds. The evidence is irrefutable, and he has been imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice."

"Even if you don't die soon, you will be exiled."

"You really don't know about this order from His Majesty himself?"

Jiang Wantang was suddenly struck by lightning, his face turned pale and his eyes were full of disbelief.

When Concubine Zhang saw her like this, she felt very happy.

She sneered and said sarcastically, "It seems that His Majesty treats you just like this."

Jiang Wantang no longer cared about what Concubine Zhang said. Her mind was full of her brother being imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice.

In a trance, she suddenly remembered that night in Beishan, when Jiang Huaizhou came in a hurry, smelling of medicine, and left in a hurry...

So, at that time...something had already happened to my brother, right?

But not only did he not ask for help from her, he was also worried about whether she was living well in the palace and whether she was implicated.

But what about her, what is she doing?

Unspeakable self-blame and regret surged into my heart, my heart suddenly contracted, and it hurt so much that I could hardly breathe.

Jiang Wantang's whole body was trembling.

She is too stupid!

I was so stupid that I almost forgot that Ji Wuyuan was a cold-blooded and ruthless emperor.

Xiuzhu, who was behind her, was frightened when he saw this and quickly stepped forward to support her.

Jiang Wantang didn't believe that his brother would do such a thing as corruption. Someone must have deliberately framed him.

At this moment, she had only one thought in her mind: nothing must happen to her brother.

This is the only relative she treats sincerely in the world.

Without caring about anything else, Jiang Wantang hurriedly returned to the imperial study.

When Concubine Zhang saw her distraught figure, her face was full of smugness and viciousness.

Jiang Wantang, go make some noise!

After this, your good days will be over!

When Jiang Wantang stumbled to the door of the imperial study, her eyes were red and her face was full of sorrow, which frightened Wang Fuhai who was guarding the door.

Before he could pass on the message, Jiang Wantang had already rushed in.

If she can't even protect her own brother, what's the point of all her planning?

Ji Wuyuan, who was busy handling government affairs at the imperial desk, looked up at Jiang Wantang who had barged in and frowned.

The latter knelt on the ground, his eyes were red and tears were in his eyes, but he was stubborn and refused to let them fall. His whole body was filled with a sadness that was so thick that it seemed impossible to dissolve it.

She spoke, her voice trembling slightly: "Your Majesty, how do you intend to deal with my brother?"

Ji Wuyuan stood up and looked down at Jiang Wantang, his eyes cold and narrowed slightly: "Who told you?"

Judging from his reaction, it seemed that Concubine Zhang did not lie to her.

Jiang Wantang smiled sarcastically, her eyes turning icy as she asked again, "So, Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with my brother?"

Ji Wuyuan's face was as gloomy as water, and as cold as ice: "Are you questioning me?"

"I dare not!" Jiang Wantang's eyes were unyielding and her words were cold, without any sign of fear.

Ji Wuyuan looked at her with a sullen expression and smiled creepily, "Jiang Wantang, I've really spoiled you. How dare you talk to me like that?"

Jiang Wantang simply raised her eyes to look at him, her gaze stubborn yet calm. "Your Majesty, my brother has been wrongly accused. I beg you to have mercy and order a thorough re-investigation of this case."

After she finished speaking, she leaned over and kowtowed heavily on the hard white marble floor tiles.

Ji Wuyuan stared at Jiang Wantang's cold and distant expression without blinking.

He suddenly sneered, his words lingering, his voice cold and sardonic: "What if I want to execute him?"

"You said you were willing to be my sword, but now I'm pointing this sword at Jiang Huaizhou. How can you do that?"

Even though Jiang Wantang already knew that Ji Wuyuan was cold-blooded and heartless at heart, she was still deeply hurt by his words.

At this moment, she truly realized what it meant to be an emperor's heartless heart.

The cold-blooded emperor in front of her was completely different from the man who had gently kissed her on the imperial desk not long ago.

You see, a man’s heart is indeed the most unreliable thing in the world.

Jiang Wantang smiled sadly and said calmly, "Then Your Majesty, please execute me as well. It would be a good opportunity for us, brother and sister, to have a companion on our journey to the underworld."

"Anyway, if I lose the bet, I won't survive."

Her back was very straight, and she looked really strong.

Ji Wuyuan was filled with hostility and said in a sharp tone, "Are you threatening me?"

"In my life, I hate being threatened the most."

Jiang Wantang sneered inwardly: What a coincidence, I am also...
