Chapter 122 Extra 4 You two are truly of one mind
Wang Zhiyan held a dagger in her hand, her eyes bloodshot, while Jing Siye rushed forward at lightning speed. He stretched out his long arms, picked up Zhu Wenqin steadily with one hand, and at the same time turned sideways, taking advantage of the momentum to kick Wang Zhiyan fiercely in the chest.
The kick was so powerful that Wang Zhiyan flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.
"Wang Zhiyan, I originally wanted to give you a chance to live, but you are the one seeking death!"
Wang Zhiyan struggled to get up from the ground, her hair was disheveled, blood was hanging from the corners of her mouth, and she sneered coldly and resolutely:
"A way to live? Your Majesty, when you were still a prince, I stayed in your house for more than half a year. The Queen Mother even gave me to you. Who in the capital doesn't know about it? How dare I get married? Who dares to marry me?"
"It was you who didn't know better and left early. I didn't force you." Jing Siye's tone was as cold as frost in winter.
"Is it wrong for me to fight for my feelings? Do you have to kill me?"
Wang Zhiyan shouted at the top of her lungs, with endless grievance and unwillingness.
Jing Siye: "If you touch my people, there will be only one outcome."
"I have been ruined by your Jing family. Don't even think about leaving any descendants..." Wang Zhiyan went crazy. She raised the dagger again and stabbed Zhu Wenqin frantically.
However, as soon as she raised her hand, Jing Siye's secret guards appeared in front of her.
There was a flash of cold light, and the knife came down, and Wang Zhiyan's hand was chopped off.
She lost her balance and fell backwards, her back hitting the sword held by another secret guard, and the sharp blade instantly pierced her chest. Blood continued to flow from the corners of her mouth, her eyes gradually dimmed, and her life force disappeared.
Zhu Wenqin was so frightened after witnessing this bloody scene that his entire body was instantly drenched in cold sweat. His face turned as pale as paper and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Jing Siye's heart was filled with heartache and worry. He hurriedly carried Zhu Wenqin onto the carriage and galloped towards the palace.
Along the way, in order to reduce the bumps in the carriage, Jing Siye always held Zhu Wenqin tightly in his lap, with gentle eyes, and softly comforted the frightened person in his arms.
When they arrived at the palace bedroom, Chen Lian was already waiting there, looking anxious.
Jing Siye carefully placed Zhu Wenqin on the bed. He was extremely nervous and his eyes never left Zhu Wenqin's face.
Chen Lian hurried forward and carefully diagnosed Zhu Wenqin. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, a relieved smile appeared on his face and he said:
"The queen is fine, she is just too frightened. I will prescribe a medicine to keep her pregnant later. However, Your Majesty must accompany the queen well, especially at night. The queen must not leave her side."
"I understand. Thank you." Jing Siye nodded slightly, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He turned to look at Zhu Wenqin, his eyes full of doting, brought a glass of water, gently fed him, and said tentatively:
"Qin'er, did you hear what Doctor Chen said? Starting tonight, I must stay by Qin'er's side."
Zhu Wenqin drank two sips of water, and when she heard this, she turned her face away in displeasure, secretly complaining in her heart:
[You two are truly of one mind, king and subject.] 】
After Chen Lian left, Jing Siye gently wiped Zhu Wenqin's body, and then he quickly finished his own bath.
He hadn't slept with the little one in his arms for more than ten days. At this moment, he felt extremely cautious and excited.
He gently lifted the quilt and was about to get into bed when suddenly the slightly panicked voice of Eunuch Wu rang out from outside the door:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened..."
Jing Siye's face instantly turned gloomy. He was angry and wondered if Eunuch Wu wanted to be beaten for disturbing him at this time.
He was afraid of disturbing Zhu Wenqin, so he tiptoed towards the palace entrance and said through gritted teeth:
"Eunuch Wu, you'd better have something very important to tell me."
Eunuch Wu was so frightened that he trembled all over. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, knelt on the ground with a plop, and said:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I deserve to die..."
"Hurry up and tell me."
Jing Siye interrupted impatiently, suppressing his anger.
Eunuch Wu said tremblingly, "Zhai Yu is dying. He said he has something important to ask the emperor to come over."
Upon hearing this, Jing Siye was silent for a while, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He looked towards the bed again, and finally told Eunuch Wu:
"You must watch over me carefully. If there is any problem with the Queen, please report to me immediately."
Eunuch Wu said respectfully, "I obey your order."
Jing Siye hurried to Chen Lian's residence. Zhai Qing had been studying the antidote for the Soul-Breaking Powder with him, so they all stayed in Chen Lian's side hall for the time being.
Jing Siye walked into the side hall, and Chu Heng was carrying a basin of blood out. His eyes were red, and it was obvious that he had just cried.
When he saw Jing Siye, he quickly bowed respectfully. Jing Siye raised his hand to signal him not to bow, then walked towards the bed where Zhai Yu was.
Zhai Qing knelt on the ground, his eyes full of confusion and pain.
When Zhai Yu saw Jing Siye, he raised his head and tried to salute, but was stopped by Jing Siye.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty of impoliteness. I wanted to go to Your Majesty and explain it to you, but I am afraid that if I get sick, I will pollute Your Majesty's holy place."
Zhai Yu's voice was weak and he was barely breathing.
Jing Siye: "It's okay. There are some things I've wanted to ask for clarification."
At this time, Nangong Ling also hurried in, and when she saw Jing Siye, she quickly said:
"Your Majesty, you are here too?"
Jing Siye nodded, and they all looked at Zhai Yu lying on the bed.
Zhai Yu took a deep breath and said slowly: "...I know what the emperor wants to ask."
He looked at Zhai Qing lying on the ground, his eyes reluctant, and said to Jing Siye:
"Qing'er is from the south. His mother was seriously ill at the time and was crying at the pharmacy. I felt sorry for him and adopted him. My wife and I are only husband and wife in name only. I don't like women."
"At first I didn't know why the Madam would tolerate me. Later, when I found out that she was an undercover agent from Japan, I understood that she was just using my Madam's name to stay in the mansion so that she could carry out her plan."
Nangong Ling widened her eyes in shock and said:
“Don’t tell me that you and my master were…” He didn’t finish the rest of his words, but everyone understood what he meant.
Zhai Yu nodded, with a look of reminiscence on his face:
"Yes, but my mother couldn't accept it. However, we never lost contact. Until he finally learned that my wife had an accident in the palace, he immediately rushed to my house."
"So, Your Majesty, I beg you to spare this poor child. He is truly innocent. He has no blood relationship with Japan at all."
Hearing this, Zhai Qing swallowed back the tears and tried hard not to cry out loud. He just felt that the first half of his life had been a mess.
Chu Heng also came in at this time, knelt down with him, and gently pulled his sleeve. Zhai Qing held his hand tightly. Only the warmth in this palm made him feel that he had really lived the first half of his life.
Jing Siye was silent for a long time, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and finally he said:
"Yes, I can pardon him, but he must stay in the capital and must not leave my sight."
Upon hearing this, Zhai Yu showed a relieved smile on his face, as if a major issue had been resolved. He immediately said to Zhai Qing:
"Qing'er, ... hurry up and thank the emperor..."
Upon hearing this, Zhai Qing bowed respectfully to Jing Siye, and of course, Chu Heng did the same.
Zhai Yu said to Nangong Ling: "I have another unwelcome request, which is..."
"Bury you and your master together." Nangong Ling took over his words and said without beating around the bush.
Zhai Yu's eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, then he smiled and slowly closed his eyes. There was a trace of serenity on his face, as he had finally found his home.
