Shen Wei wrapped herself in a cloak and said, “I am accompanying Mo Xun to cruise the lake.”
The King of Wu was still standing there.
Even Li Yuanjing noticed that something was wrong with him, and his hawk-like eyes fell on the King of Wu.
King Wu's knees went weak. The majestic middle-aged man in front of him with deep facial features was the former Emperor of Qing who had oppressed Donglin to the point of suffocation!
Just getting close, the King of Wu felt weak all over and trembling with fear. He stammered and greeted: "King of Wu, Donglin, I greet your Majesty..."
Li Yuanjing asked, "What's the matter?"
Just two words can bring people an infinite sense of oppression. King Wu was scared. He felt like he was trapped in a terrible wolf's den and was being scrutinized by the powerful wolf king.
If you are not careful, you will die.
The King of Wu stammered, "Nothing, nothing...it's just..."
Not far away, the guard Zhang Wuge suddenly called out, "Your Majesty! Oh, I finally found you!"
The guard Zhang Wu thought that King Wu had fallen into the water, so he searched for a while and finally found King Wu by the lake.
Brother Zhang Wu ran over breathlessly, with only King Wu in his eyes, not noticing the complicated situation around him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced at Shen Wei on the pleasure boat.
She is indeed a very good-looking girl! He looks noble, obviously from a very high family!
Brother Zhang Wu suddenly felt upset. He politely saluted Shen Wei and said sincerely, "My lady, my prince fell in love with you at first sight. It is an offense to ask for an audience rashly. I will take the prince back now. Please don't blame me, young lady."
Shen Wei: ...
King Wu was so shocked that he forgot to cover Zhang Wu's mouth.
Brother Zhang Wu's gaze shifted and he glanced at Li Yuanjing beside Shen Wei. Brother Zhang Wu saw that Li Yuanjing had an extraordinary demeanor and was wearing clothes so luxurious that one couldn't tell the material.
Brother Zhang Wu was shocked.
Zhang Wu Ge thought of Princess Donglin's instructions. Princess Donglin knew that King Wu was a troublemaker, so she repeatedly told Zhang Wu Ge to take good care of King Wu. He also gave Zhang Wu Ge a lot of silver and money so that if the King of Wu got into trouble, he could pay compensation.
However, when Zhang Wu Ge saw Li Yuanjing dressed in gorgeous clothes, he thought that he must be a wealthy man and would not be short of money, so he should not have to pay any compensation.
So Zhang Wuge said respectfully to Li Yuanjing: "My noble sir, I believe you are the father of this girl. Everyone loves beauty. You made your daughter beautiful, but my prince was blinded by greed. Oh, please forgive me and don't hold it against me."
Brother Zhang Wu admitted his mistake with a very good attitude and a sincere tone.
Li Yuanjing's handsome face was distorted.
Shen Wei couldn't help but laughed out loud.
The King of Wu's eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground with a thud, fainting.
...
...
Yan Mansion.
When the King of Wu woke up from his coma, it was dark outside the window and the room was filled with the smell of medicine.
Princess Donglin saw that he had woken up and asked with a worried look on her face: "Brother, are you feeling better? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
The King of Wu was at a loss. He rubbed his eyes hard and then touched his neck carefully.
Fortunately, the brain is still there.
Princess Donglin was puzzled: "Brother, why are you touching your neck?"
King Wu lay on the bed, tears streaming down his face: "It's over, the Kingdom of Donglin is over... I am a sinner, wuwuwu, I am a sinner for all eternity."
Seeing her brother acting weird, Princess Donglin asked the old nanny to call the imperial physician. The imperial physician came with his medicine box and carefully took the King of Wu's pulse.
In the end, the only four words that came to mind were "worry, fear and alarm".
The imperial physician prescribed some medicine and left.
The King of Wu leaned sickly on the edge of the bed, drinking the bitter medicine prepared by his sister, but his heart was even more bitter than the medicine. How could he have imagined that the beauty he had been pursuing so hard was actually the Queen Mother of Qing.
This also offended the terrible emperor.
Princess Donglin fed her brother medicine and said incessantly, "You scared me to death today. The Queen Mother sent someone to send you back to the Yan Mansion, saying that you fainted by the lake. Brother, tell me why you fainted."
The King of Wu kept his mouth shut.
Seeing this, Princess Donglin vaguely realized that something was wrong. She asked again and again, and the King of Wu finally couldn't hold back his tears and looked at his sister with tears in his eyes.
The King of Wu said, "Sister... when you came to Qing to marry, I felt so miserable that I ran to the beach alone. There, I met the wicked state teacher of Yue. He told me that I would meet an extraordinary woman after I came of age."
Princess Donglin nodded. She had heard her brother mention this before.
King Wu lowered his eyes and choked up, "Over the years, I have been looking for a girl of extraordinary beauty. Yanjing City is prosperous and there are many beauties. I met a girl a few days ago and fell in love with her at first sight. Unfortunately, the gap between her and my status is too big..."
Princess Donglin didn't understand what was going on. She thought her brother fell in love with a girl from a poor family, so he felt that there was a big gap in their status. Princess Donglin comforted her with a smile: "Brother, no matter what her background is, as long as she is the girl you like, I will definitely find a way to make the decision for you."
The King of Wu looked at his sister eagerly.
Princess Donglin asked: "Which girl do you like?"
The King of Wu hung his head: "Queen Mother."
Princess Donglin: "The maidservant beside the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother and I are close friends. I'll talk to her later."
The King of Wu lowered his head even lower and told Princess Donglin what had happened while choking with sobs.
Princess Donglin was struck by lightning.
She stood up quickly, ordered someone to fetch a feather duster, and gave King Wu a good beating, feeling very disappointed with him: "You came to Yanjing City and did nothing all day, and I didn't interfere too much! But you actually offended Queen Mother Shen!"
When the feather duster fell on him, the King of Wu ran away in panic, "Sister, I know I was wrong! Stop hitting me, I know I was wrong!"
Princess Donglin was furious: "Stay at home for the next few days and don't go anywhere! I will send you back to Donglin at the beginning of next month! The Queen Mother sent someone to send you back, which shows that she is not holding you accountable. You should burn incense and pray to the Buddha!"
The King of Wu was beaten and rested alone in his bed at night.
It was late at night and the insects in the yard were making so much noise that it was giving people a headache. The King of Wu held the soft silk quilt and felt very uncomfortable.
He knew that he had caused a terrible disaster.
Can...
When King Wu thought of that beautiful figure, his heart couldn't help beating.
He lived alone in Donglin in misery. His mother was cowardly and his elder sister lived far away. He relied on the predictions of the imperial teacher to survive and tried hard to stay alive just to meet that extraordinary girl.
Now that I have met her, she is indeed an "extraordinary" woman. But she is like the moon in the sky, out of reach.
The more the King of Wu thought about it, the sadder he became. He tasted the pain of love for the first time.
His eyes were red and he hid in his bed alone, biting the quilt and sobbing.
...
...
Luoyue Lake Royal Manor.
Li Yuanjing had a sullen face the whole day and was in a very bad mood, so much so that he didn't even eat two pieces of the venison that Le You had roasted himself.
After dark, Li Yuanjing tossed and turned in bed. He is ten years older than Shen Weixu, and when he went out today, he was mistaken for Shen Wei's "father" by ordinary people! It was like stabbing a knife into his heart!
The more Li Yuanjing thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He moved closer to Shen Wei, feeling a little aggrieved: "Weiwei, am I really old?"
The emperor had appearance anxiety.
