Mercenary Concubine’s Romantic Disaster - C173
The morning arrived quickly. The capital city of Jiang Country was different from the capital city of Night Emperor Yan. In the capital city of Night Emperor Yan’s country, the citizens were simpler and more prosperous. However, in this place, mournful cries could be heard everywhere. The citizens did not have the slightest bit of smiles on their faces, and the buildings in the capital were all dilapidated. It was like a dead city.
However, in this sort of dilapidated city, there was a palace like structure.
That was the imperial palace of the Jiang Country.
“Strange, isn’t it? The people were already like this, but the imperial palace of Jiang Country was even more luxurious than the imperial palace of any country. “It’s even expanding now.” Jiang Wuyue said to Shui Ruo in a mocking manner. However, underneath this seemingly indifferent attitude, there was a gritting hatred hidden within.
Shui Long listened silently, just watching. From now on, she was Jiang Wuyue’s hostage, a bargaining chip he had used to deal with Night Emperor Yan. If it was said that she only hated Jiang Wuyue before she came to the Jiang Country, then now, she was probably supporting him.
If kidnapping her would make the country better, then she didn’t mind being kidnapped. At least he wouldn’t see such a desolate scene again.
Seeing this, he believed that regardless of whether he was kind or not, regardless of whether he had a sense of justice, he would make the same decision.
Shui Long held Jiang Wuyue’s hand silently as he thought. But he discovered that his hand was even colder than hers.
The horse carriage entered the palace, and when it reached the entrance, it was stopped. The soldiers of Jiang Guo pointed their long spears at Jiang Wuyue’s carriage.
Jiang Wuyue slowly got off the carriage. The soldiers then put down their weapons. He respectfully kneeled on the ground, but his eyes were filled with fear and hatred. Not a shred of love.
This was Jiang Wuyue’s country. This was Jiang Wuyue’s subject.
Jiang Wuyue looked at these people and sneered. Then, without a word of greeting, he leisurely walked into the palace with Shui.
When those people saw him enter the palace, they seemed to heave a sigh of relief. After they left, these people all stood up.
“You’re really unpopular.” Shui Sheng gazed at Jiang Wuyue who was walking in front of him, and could not help but speak up.
Hearing that, the man laughed: “Where are you now? The worst was yet to come. Unpopular? That’s great of you to think about. All the subjects of the Jiang Country hate me. I believe that it won’t be long before someone wants to kill me. ”
Jiang Wuyue’s beautiful eyes flashed with ridicule as she spoke to here.
Soon, Jiang Wuyue brought Shui Long to the Emperor’s study.
They were stopped again in front of the study.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince.” The guard at the entrance kneeled down towards Jiang Wuyue with a respectful expression.
“I want to enter to see royal father.” The Crown Prince frowned.
“This… I’m afraid that’s not appropriate. The empress and the emperor are together right now. ” The speaker was a bit embarrassed.
Shui Yuehan also took a glance at this person. He saw that all of them looked ordinary, but they were very relaxed. When they spoke and did things, they were completely flawless. He was a typical smart person.
“No worries, I just returned from outside and have something important to tell royal father.” Jiang Wuyue was very calm in the face of this man’s rejection.
After hearing what Jiang Wuyue said, he felt helpless. Although she wanted to reject him using a method like doubting whether he was the crown prince or not. But the crown prince had an abominable and unreplicable pair of eyes.
Looking at his scarlet eyes, the man could only silently step aside.
Then, when he saw the water, his expression froze. This woman … Wasn’t that the woman depicted on the portrait that was sent to the imperial palace of the Jiang Country?
Thinking of this, the man immediately gave way to the two of them.
“Your Highness, please.”
Seeing that the man had made way, Jiang Wuyue harrumphed coldly and dragged the water into the Emperor’s royal study.
The imperial study room was decorated with luxurious decorations and tables filled with exquisite food. All of these indicated the extravagance and waste of this country’s emperor.
At this moment, a man and a woman were seated opposite the table. The woman was bright-yellow in color, and looked alluring without makeup. Judging by her appearance, it was not hard to tell that she was Jiang Wuyue’s mother. Because the two were so similar. Sitting on the side with a face full of infatuation looking at the girl was probably the rumored Emperor of Jiang Country.
Therefore, things like the emperor truly loving the empress might not always be a good thing. The empress had great power. If the emperor still allowed her to do so, she might end up facing such an ugly situation.
“Greetings to royal father and mother.” Jiang Wuyue pursed her lips and kneeled on the ground while holding onto the water.
His shout had also attracted the attention of the Emperor. The emperor looked at Shui Long and Jiang Wuyue, and asked with dissatisfaction: “Wu Yue? “Why aren’t you dead yet?”
“I still have things to do, so I haven’t died yet.” Jiang Wuyue’s voice was low, and as his words fell, his gaze filled with hatred landed on the Queen who had already discovered them.
The Queen saw the expression on Jiang Wuyue’s face, and ridicule flashed past her eyes, “There’s still something you haven’t done? Wu Yue, there should only be one thing for you to do, and that is to die and use your death to pacify your subjects. ”
The empress’s voice was clear and pleasant to listen to, but her words were chilling. It was hard to imagine what a mother would say to her child.
Shui Ruo dared to bet that even Night Emperor Yan’s mother would not say such a thing.
This woman was too cold.
“Your son thinks he deserves to die as well, but if your son dies, how will the internal conflict in Jiang Country be resolved?” Jiang Wu Yue didn’t pay attention to the empress’s mockery. He asked calmly.
The Emperor and Queen fell silent when they heard this.
Ever since Jiang Wuyue had died, without any form of shield, the citizens had gradually discovered that the Jiang Country’s downfall was not only due to the crown prince’s lack of information, but also a deeper reason.
It had to be said, if Jiang Wuyue came back at this time, it would be a good thing for the entire country. After the people of Jiang Chen had a united goal, they would no longer want to rebel, but wanted to kill the Crown Prince.
They just needed to be parents who couldn’t bear to do anything to their children.
Thinking of this, the empress’s expression softened. Although he was still disgusted, he gave Jiang Wuyue a smile: “What my son has said, it would be good for you to come back. However, who is this lady beside you?”
The empress changed the subject and set her eyes on Shui You. It seemed nothing serious, but this really gave her a fright.
Wasn’t this the woman in the portrait given to her by the Third Marquis of the neighboring countries? She had also investigated what had happened. This woman was the imperial concubine of the emperor of a neighboring country. In order to find her, the emperor had mobilized the entire country.
Why would it appear in such a place?
“Imperial Mother, she is a woman that your son brought back.” Jiang Wuyue’s voice was low.
The empress smiled meaningfully when she heard that. “Oh? My son’s woman? This was truly strange. Your Majesty, do you think so? ”
The empress’s gaze fell on the emperor. At the same time, the Emperor, who had just been ignored, was currently gobbling down the food. There was still meat in his mouth. When he heard the empress’s question, he nodded vigorously.
When the empress saw the emperor stand up in disgust, “Your Majesty, I’m a little tired. “I’ll take my leave first.” The empress left without looking back.
Only after the Queen left did the emperor swallow the food in his mouth. As he looked at Jiang Wuyue, an apologetic expression appeared on his aged face.
“It’s been hard on you.” The emperor said as he looked at Jiang Wuyue.
Hearing that, Jiang Wu Yue smiled mournfully: “Royal father, what are you saying? As long as you and your mother are well, this son doesn’t care. ”
“You know that this is not the question that I’m talking about. Wuyue, you are a good child. “Even though I’ve been called a fool, it’s not like I can’t see the big picture.”
The emperor’s expression was solemn. In fact, the emperor himself wasn’t too ugly. He had just passed forty years of age, so he looked rather handsome.
Between his brows, they revealed a sense of shrewdness. However, such a person was said to be ridiculous outside. For a single woman, he had buried the entire country.
Did he really not know what he was doing? You know what? Shui Yuehan thought to himself as he looked at the emperor’s expression.
He looked at the emperor and said with a slightly hoarse voice: “What is royal father saying? I don’t understand, I have just come back and am a little tired, I hope that royal father can enjoy his meal.”
With that, Jiang Wuyue left with Shui Yuehan. Just as he walked out of the imperial study, he saw the person at the door bowing respectfully towards the two of them. “Crown Prince, the empress is waiting for you.”
“I know.” Nightmare King Yan was not surprised. He merely said those words in a cold tone and then leisurely walked towards the empress’s chambers with Shui Ruo in tow.
The empress’s quarters were very far away from the emperor’s study, and she had requested it herself. In her own words, she didn’t want to see the Emperor all the time.
From this, it could be seen how much the empress loathed the Emperor.
By the time the two of them reached the empress’s chambers, a quarter of an hour had already passed.
The Queen’s bedroom was called the Jade Creek Palace, and there were peach blossoms growing around it. At this moment, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and the petals were gently falling to the ground. The fragrance of the peach blossoms wafted through the breeze.
Shui Sheng stared at the scenery in shock.
This place was not as exquisite and magnificent as the Emperor’s Imperial Study, but it also had a unique flavor.
“This is the empress’s residence?” Water was curious.
“No, this is the residence of the Imperial Advisor.”
“Huh? The Imperial Advisor lives in the palace? The empress can come to the Imperial Advisor’s place as she pleases? ”
Shui Long felt as though his entire body had been shocked.
Yes, but the Queen Mother can’t come here as she pleases. She usually resides here. If the Queen Mother had not given her permission, the Royal Father would not have come to see the Queen Mother. Therefore, the Queen Mother would only call the Royal Father to see her when she needed it. She was usually here. “Look at the man here.
“Men here?”
“Mo Xi.” Jiang Wuyue bit out the word from the bottom of her heart with hatred.
He then saw a man dressed in elegant white walk out. He smiled playfully and said, “Your highness has already started calling my name before you even entered the door?”
The man’s voice was hoarse and ethereal, with a man’s unique magnetism within. It was very nice. However, this was not the main point. The main point was that this voice sounded very familiar.
When Shui Yuehan heard this sound, his whole body turned into a mess.
Isn’t this? Shui Ruo stared at the man who had a devilish appearance. He was now dressed in white, but was staring at her with great interest as he silently cursed.
Wasn’t this Feiyu!
He was actually the Imperial Advisor of the Jiang Country? The person who could cure her of the poison? If she had only felt that he had been harming her at the time, then now she was completely certain.
When this person was on good terms with her, he didn’t detoxify her and even harmed her once. If it wasn’t for her fast reaction, she would have already fed the shark.
When she thought of this, Shui Ruo couldn’t help but glare at the man.
“Why is this girl looking at me like that? We know each other? ” Mo Xi stared at Shui Long, laughing in a devilish way.
Shui Ruo gritted his teeth in hatred, “Ah, I don’t know you. I just want to see how you look like.”
“Ha!” His Highness the Crown Prince has managed to find a sharp tongued beauty. ”
“Is that enough? I’m not here to listen to you talk about this. ” Jiang Wuyue said coldly with a deadpan expression on his face.
“Naturally. The empress is waiting for you inside. ”
“Then, before that, can the Imperial Advisor help this lady remove the Lovesick Gu? Because I had to, I planted a Lovesick Gu for this young lady. ”
Jiang Wuyue entered as soon as she finished speaking.
Only after Jiang Wuyue entered the room did the man retract his previous silly look that was unfamiliar to us. He looked at Shui Long and said meaningfully: “We meet again.”
“Ha!” Shui Ruo sneered.
“I knew it, the lady would come to see me again.” The man smiled brilliantly.
Ever since he found out that this woman had planted a Lovesick Gu, he had a rough idea of what was going on. At the same time, he believed that this woman would definitely come looking for him. For the sake of survival and for the sake of freedom.
A person who had been infected with the Lovesick Gu would definitely not have any freedom. And this woman, she probably really wants to be free. The desire in her eyes had long ago betrayed her.
“I didn’t know you were an Imperial Advisor, I’ve offended you. I hope that the Imperial Advisor can help me release the Lovesick Gu. ” Shui Ruo said unhappily as he looked at the man in front of him.
“Is this your attitude of begging? But forget it. This Seat is also not interested in this. If it’s the Lovesick Gu, it’s better not to remove it. ” Mo Xi looked at Shui Long as she spoke.
“Why are they here?” Water frowned.
“You don’t want to know how. To be honest, I have never released the Lovesick Gu for anyone. “Because, you have to share a room with me.”
When Mo Xi said this, Shui Long’s expression immediately changed.
