Qianxia helped Nan Zhiyun stand up. Because she had just been applying medicine, her trouser legs were rolled up, which looked rather unsightly now.
"No manners," Yu Jingchen said coldly.
Nan Zhiyun lowered her head and remained silent. Perhaps because she had been reborn, she was somewhat numb. Yu Jingchen was furious at the sight of Nan Zhiyun like this, especially when he thought about what the Empress Dowager had said today; his anger flared even more.
"You want to leave the palace?" Yu Jingchen asked directly.
Nan Zhiyun guessed that the Empress Dowager must have told Yu Jingchen about her desire to leave the palace that day. Although she was a little scared, she still said, "Yes... Your Majesty knows that Your Majesty dislikes me and does not want to see me. I was ignorant of the rules before and disturbed Your Majesty. Now I know I was wrong, so I am willing to leave."
"Heh, Nan Zhiyun, do you think this is a place you can come and go as you please?" Yu Jingchen sneered.
Nan Zhiyun's heart tightened. She didn't know what to say, so she simply remained silent. But it was this attitude that angered Yu Jingchen. Yu Jingchen took two steps forward and grabbed Nan Zhiyun's arm, which frightened her greatly.
"Nan Zhiyun, how well did you use the tactic of playing hard to get? You even got the Empress Dowager to help you put on an act? Fine, I'll grant your wish today!" Yu Jingchen didn't know where his anger came from, but he needed to vent. He pulled Nan Zhiyun inside.
Nan Zhiyun was so frightened that she tried to break free: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty, please let me go!" Nan Zhiyun's fear came from the bottom of her heart, but how could Yu Jingchen let her go so easily?
Qianxia wanted to follow, but Xinglai stopped her: "Do you dare to interfere in His Majesty's affairs?" Xinglai looked at Qianxia warningly, and Qianxia had no choice.
Nan Zhiyun was pulled into the house by Yu Jingchen, who then roughly threw her onto the bed. Nan Zhiyun felt like she was seeing stars from the impact.
Before he could react, Yu Jingchen had already grabbed her face with his hand: "Nan Zhiyun, if you want to play, I'll play with you. I want to see just how capable you are!" After saying that, Yu Jingchen roughly tore Nan Zhiyun's clothes.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Nan Zhiyun cried out in fright, but Yu Jingchen remained unmoved.
Whenever Yu Jingchen thought about what happened today, and about the Empress Dowager and Nan Zhiyun saying that he was leaving again, he was filled with anger and started demanding things without any regard for the consequences. Nan Zhiyun was initially resisting, but how could she possibly be stronger than Yu Jingchen?
Nan Zhiyun suddenly felt humiliated, and memories of her past life flooded her mind. She began to tremble with fear, crying out, "No...no..."
"No... Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun couldn't take it anymore, but Yu Jingchen ignored her cries and instead tore off the last piece of clothing covering Nan Zhiyun's body.
Nan Zhiyun was completely naked, her body utterly exposed, but... at that very moment, just as Nan Zhiyun was sinking into despair, Yu Jingchen's body froze, because... Nan Zhiyun's body was covered in countless wounds...
Yu Jingchen still remembered that perhaps it was the last time, when the Empress Dowager forced him to come, that he was so angry that he vented all his anger on Nan Zhiyun, leaving her with many injuries that she had not yet recovered from.
He looked at Nan Zhiyun and found her eyes closed, her face streaked with tears, as if she were in a deathly stillness, her whole body trembling uncontrollably, filled with despair. Was she that afraid of him? Looking at Nan Zhiyun beneath him, Yu Jingchen suddenly lost all desire to continue.
Nan Zhiyun had been waiting for this torture, but it never came. She opened her eyes in fear and met Yu Jingchen's dark eyes.
"Your Majesty...no..." Nan Zhiyun shook her head, her voice weak, so weak that it seemed a gust of wind could blow it away.
She wanted to resist, she wanted to hide, but she was no match for Yu Jingchen. In front of Yu Jingchen, she was like a lamb to the slaughter, like fish on a chopping board.
Something seemed to have been touched in Yu Jingchen's heart, but it happened so quickly that he didn't even realize it. Looking at Nan Zhiyun like this, the anger in his heart instantly dissipated. He released Nan Zhiyun and stood up.
"Useless thing," Yu Jingchen didn't know where his frustration came from. He casually waved his hand, and all the candlesticks next to him were overturned and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Nan Zhiyun trembled violently with fear. Qianxia outside was even more worried when she heard the sound, but she was blocked from entering. Only Xinglai remained unmoved when she heard the sound.
Inside the room, Nan Zhiyun saw the candlesticks scattered on the floor, and memories flooded her mind. The first time, Yu Jingchen had used candlesticks...
She looked at the candlestick on the ground, curled up into a small ball, and kept hiding behind him. She looked at Yu Jingchen pleadingly: "Please, don't... Your Majesty, I beg you..." Nan Zhiyun thought he would use the same method as before.
Yu Jingchen didn't actually know why Nan Zhiyun had such a strong reaction, but after seeing Nan Zhiyun looking at the candlestick on the ground, he could roughly guess that it was from last time, right? The injuries on her body now were mostly left from last time.
Seeing Nan Zhiyun like this, Yu Jingchen didn't know what he was thinking. Suddenly, he took two steps forward and picked up the candlestick from the ground. Nan Zhiyun looked at his actions, her eyes filled with fear. But Yu Jingchen clearly didn't want to let her go, and walked to Nan Zhiyun's side with the candlestick in his hand.
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun looked at Yu Jingchen in despair.
"Afraid?" Yu Jingchen used a candlestick to lift Nan Zhiyun's chin, and Nan Zhiyun was too scared to speak.
"If you're afraid, why did you come to provoke me? Why did you come to get close to me? Nan Zhiyun, how shameless are you? Hmm?" Yu Jingchen's tone was terrifying. Nan Zhiyun closed her eyes, and tears fell uncontrollably.
