Chapter 118 Lost a Leg

Xie Junyao kept talking to her, even neglecting his official duties. Most of his talk was aimed at flattering her, and he eventually brought up the idea of ​​asking her for a few more days.

Wen Wanyu let go of Xie Junyao's hand and said coldly, "I have said everything I need to say. I will return to the palace first. I will take my leave."

Xie Junyao touched his nose, realizing that Wanwan was determined to "punish" him this time. He followed her eagerly: "I'll take you there."

Wen Wanyu was about to refuse when she saw Xie Junyao's aggrieved eyes. He pulled Wen Wanyu's sleeve and swung it twice, imitating Wen Wanyu's coquettish look in the past.

"I was supposed to be away from you for ten days. And now you won't even let me see you off. Wanwan really has a cruel heart."

Wen Wanyu suppressed her laughter and said, "Okay."

Xie Junyao immediately changed the cloudy sky to clear, and asked people to prepare the imperial sedan chair and put a cloak on him. By the time he was ready to set off, a quarter of an hour had passed.

As the two sat on the imperial sedan chair, Xie Junyao belatedly remembered Li Dexian and asked, "By the way, why did Wanwan kidnap Li Dexian? Where is he?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Li Dexian is fine." Wen Wanyu said.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the strands of hair on Wen Wanyu's forehead swayed in the wind. Xie Junyao saw this and his eyes gradually became more emotional. He hugged her into his cloak and whispered in her ear:

"Wanwan can just tie me up and take me away. Then she can strip me or whip me. It all depends on what she likes."

He added: "I won't resist."

Wen Wanyu felt uncomfortable all over, and hurriedly lowered her eyelids, her ears turning red. This person... how could he be so shameless! He was still out there... and already... in heat...

Xie Junyao raised his thin lips in a slight arc and reached out to pinch her burning earlobe. "Why are you shy, Wanwan? I thought Wanwan liked this."

Wen Wanyu immediately understood what he meant. She had explained the meaning of SM to him before, and this lecher had remembered it.

Wen Wanyu grabbed his fingers and said with a forced smile: "Xie Junyao, if you say one more word, you will not be able to enter the Forgetful Palace for the next 15 days."

Wen Wanyu knows how to control Xie Junyao.

Xie Junyao immediately panicked, his voice emitting from the tip of his nose revealing a bit of grievance: "No, no, no, I was wrong, I won't say it again. Ten days are hard enough, on the fifteenth, you are going to..."

Before he could finish his words, Wen Wanyu's elbow bumped his chest. Xie Junyao followed her gaze and saw that it was Yang.

Yang's face was dark yellow, revealing obvious fatigue and weakness. In such cold weather, she was only wearing a thin cloak. Although she was still alive, the drastic change in her life had made her little different from a walking corpse.

Yang knelt down, her head bowed, her voice hoarse, "Your Highness... Noble Concubine Ling pays respects."

Xie Junyao glanced at her indifferently: "Get up. Why are you here?"

The area had already been cleared in advance, so how did she get in?

Yang replied, "In reply to the Emperor, Concubine Cheng asked me to go to Yihua Palace to meet the Second Princess."

Wen Wanyu paused. Shuyi must have her reasons for doing this. The Second Princess had indeed been quiet these past few days.

Xie Junyao looked ahead and said, "Go back."

"yes."

The imperial carriage slowly moved towards the Wangyou Palace.

Yang couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground, tears welling in her eyes as she stared at the direction of the imperial carriage. This was how the emperor truly loved someone. His previous love for her was all fake.

Hua Shan supported her arm and said, "My Lady, let's go back."

…

The next few days.

The Emperor would send gifts to Wangyou Palace every few hours. Sometimes it was just a bowl of soup, a pot of gorgeous flowers, or a handwritten letter sent on a whim.

There are only a few words in the letter——

Is my wife all right? I watch the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk. I miss you when I walk and when I sit.

I miss you very much, but I don’t know what you mean to me.

Li Dexian ran his legs off.

One night, Wen Wanyu was half asleep when she accidentally saw a person standing by the window. She was so scared that she thought it was a thief. Later she found out that Xie Junyao, the little thief, would climb over the wall and sneak into Wangyou Palace every other day.

He loved to act like a spoiled child, but after being discovered, he stopped pretending and started calling her "Qingqing" and "Husband". He insisted on taking up half of the bed.

It was also the first time that Wen Wanyu experienced Xie Junyao's shamelessness.

For Xie Junyao, being thick-skinned is sometimes a good thing.

In early spring, the palace was no longer filled with the festive atmosphere of the New Year, and Xie Junyao planned to send his seventh brother back to his fiefdom. His seventh brother was kind on the outside but deep on the inside, and cunning and scheming.

In the past, because of the Empress Dowager's consideration, he had always been lenient with him, even when he recruited soldiers and made some small moves in his fiefdom, he only gave him a warning.

But Xie Junxuan should never, ever touch his bottom line.

Xie Junxuan could no longer stay in the capital.

Xie Junyao then issued an order to send Xie Jun back to his fiefdom.

On this day, Xie Junxuan entered the palace to bid farewell to the Queen Mother. The mother and son said goodbye reluctantly.

For this reason, the Queen Mother refused to see Xie Junyao for over ten days, even calling him an ungrateful person and refusing to acknowledge him from now on. Wen Wanyu knew that Xie Junyao had done this for her, disregarding the Queen Mother's opinion and banishing the Seventh Prince back to his fiefdom.

Wen Wanyu stayed in Chengqian Palace to accompany Xie Junyao.

Now, she is four months pregnant. Her face has become rounder and her belly is bigger than others.

Sometimes when he saw her belly, Xie Junyao would worry that the baby was too big and the delivery would not be smooth.

Li Dexian entered the palace and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince requests an audience."

Xie Junyao paused, "Announce."

It wouldn't make sense for her to stay here, so Wen Wanyu stood up and said, "Then I'll go to the side hall first."

"Okay." Xie Junyao helped her up, "Slow down."

Xie Jun walked into the hall hesitantly. Wen Wanyu passed by him and even though she didn't like him, she still nodded and greeted him.

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Empress's sister-in-law." Xie Junchu also nodded in return. Wen Wanyu frowned; she didn't like the title of Empress's sister-in-law.

Ignoring him, Wen Wanyu was about to raise her foot.

Someone pushed her shoulder hard, and after she screamed, a dagger was pressed coldly against her neck. She looked down at the dagger on her neck.

Xie Junxuan has gone crazy, she thought.

Wen Wanyu didn't dare to move.

Xie Junyao's pupils suddenly locked, as if they were frozen: "Xie Junxuan, let her go."

Xie Junxuan smiled evilly and said, "Brother Emperor, please don't speak so loudly. My sword has no eyes."

"What exactly do you want to do?" Xie Junyao stared at him calmly, but a layer of cold sweat appeared on his palms.

"Royal brother, you caused my eldest brother to lose a leg." Xie Junxuan was filled with hatred and threw a dagger in front of him. "I want you to cripple your own leg."

The dagger was sharp, leaving a bloody mark on Wen Wanyu's neck. "If you don't do as I say, it will be a pity for the emperor's sister-in-law and the dragon heir in her belly."

Xie Junyao said calmly, "Let her go first." A faint blush crept beneath his brow. His hands trembled uncontrollably.

Xie Jun suddenly shouted, "You are not qualified to negotiate with me."

"Okay. Don't touch her. I'll listen to you." Xie Junyao's eyes gradually hardened. He calmed his heart.

He picked up the dagger from the ground.

Wen Wanyu couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, don't."

Xie Junyao gave her a gentle smile: "Nothing."
