After many twists and turns, I have no idea where to go
Ever since Li Qingyun took over all affairs in the imperial city, Ji Mingxiu's meal schedule has become much more regular.
When Ji Mingxiu walked into the Qianqing Palace leisurely and without any hurry, Li Qingyun was already sitting at the table waiting for him, holding a letter in his hand, with his eyes lowered and his expression unclear.
"It's meal time, Lord Li, you don't have to work so hard."
Before he finished speaking, he pretended to try to take the letter from Li Qingyun's hand, but missed.
It seems to be very important news.
Although he failed, Ji Mingxiu was not disappointed. He calmly withdrew his hand and reached for the silver chopsticks on the table.
However, the next second, the letter was thrown aside by Li Qingyun, and Ji Mingxiu's consciousness fell to the side along with the letter.
In the moment he was distracted, someone grabbed his wrist and pulled him to the side.
The hot kiss landed on his lips, not giving him any chance to breathe. He tilted his head back and endured it. His already beautiful lips were ruthlessly bitten, leaving dark teeth marks.
Not until the bloodthirsty sucking had spread to his fragile pale neck did Ji Mingxiu find the strength to push away the mad dog that was pressing on him.
"What's wrong with you?"
In broad daylight, palace maids and eunuchs stood in a row around him, all watching how he was humiliated by his subjects.
Such naked humiliation made Ji Mingxiu so angry that the corners of his eyes turned red, his hands hanging at his sides trembled constantly, and his eyes were filled with rippling tears.
He licked the wetness on his lips and tasted blood.
Ever since he was nearly stripped naked by Li Qingyun in Yu Garden last time, and the red marks from the beads tied around his wrists have not yet disappeared, he has been very restrained and tried his best not to provoke this lunatic.
Last time he said he wanted to meet Su Yuanbai, so what about today?
Was it because he teased Cheng Tianfeng in Yu Garden, or because of this letter?
Perhaps it was because the sudden pain in his eyes was too clear, Li Qingyun's eyes froze, and he raised his hand to order the palace maid to leave.
"Is your subject crazy? Your Majesty, have you forgotten your current situation?"
There were only two of them left in the hall.
The shadows of the window frames separated them from each other, and Li Qingyun approached step by step at a slow pace.
"Do you need me to help your majesty recall the past?"
My lower back hit the corner of the table hard, and the sharp pain spread inch by inch to every corner of my body.
Ji Mingxiu held onto the edge of the desk, his knuckles turning white from the exertion, and tilted his head back as Li Qingyun pinched his neck, taking away his breathing.
His movements were fierce and brutal. Bright red blood flowed down their lips and tongues, and bright fingerprints were left on the fair neck. He did not let go until Ji Mingxiu was almost suffocated.
“Cough…cough cough!”
The violent coughing brought out tears. Ji Mingxiu held on to the table and coughed until his face turned red. He felt limp and had no strength at all. Even standing up straight was a luxury.
Only those eyes were dark and firm.
"If you have the guts... then kill me."
"OK."
Li Qingyun agreed without hesitation, contrary to his usual behavior. He put his cold lips close to Ji Mingxiu's earlobe, and a sinister smile appeared on his face. His gloomy eyes were filled with morbid madness.
"It may hurt a little, but it's okay. I will be very quick, very quick, Your Majesty, the pain won't last long."
"Your Majesty, do not be afraid. I will."
"Always and always accompany your majesty."
The chilling coldness penetrated into his bones. Ji Mingxiu was stunned for a long while, his fingertips trembling slightly, and he just cursed through gritted teeth.
"Mad!"
"Heh. Your Majesty, are you wondering why I didn't threaten you with the lives of Su Yuanbai and Qiu Ling?"
Li Qingyun pinched Ji Mingxiu's chin with a sarcastic look on his face.
"If you do this double act for too long, it becomes boring."
"I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Your Majesty, how could you not understand? Isn't my achievement today exactly what Your Majesty hoped to see?"
Li Qingyun ignored Ji Mingxiu's pretense of stupidity and spoke to himself.
"On the one hand, he suppressed me and pushed me to the brink of death. On the other hand, he broke with his confidants and created the illusion that he was isolated and helpless."
He stared closely into Ji Mingxiu's trembling eyes and knew that he had guessed right.
"Who gave your majesty this idea? Su Yuanbai?"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to laugh himself, and every word he said was extremely sarcastic.
"That nerd doesn't have this ability, it looks like it must be Eunuch Qiu."
"But, didn't Qiu Ling tell His Majesty?"
Li Qingyun moved closer, his ink-black eyes were as quiet as a deep pool, leaving him no place to escape.
"Your Majesty's acting skills are really poor."
"So, who is your Majesty's trump card? Is it Gu Zi'an?"
Li Qingyun released the hand that was holding Ji Mingxiu, an ambiguous smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he slowly took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from his arms and waved it in front of Ji Mingxiu's eyes.
"Your Majesty, would you like to guess whether he will be able to come back alive?"
This was exactly the token he gave to Qu Chuan that day!
The color instantly drained from Ji Mingxiu's already pale face, and he subconsciously tried to snatch it away. However, Li Qingyun let him take it and look at it carefully, but the more he looked, the colder he felt in his heart.
At that time, he only thought that Li Qingyun would not have any good intentions, but he didn't expect that.
It turned out that Li Qingyun was aiming to kill Gu Zian from the very beginning!
No, it won't.
Something must be wrong.
But before he could think carefully, he was dragged by Li Qingyun and pressed onto the desk. The jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.
His wrist was gripped so tightly that it hurt, Li Qingyun stared at his wolf and laughed wantonly.
Of course he was happy, seeing His Majesty finally take off his calm and indifferent disguise, even if there was only deep pain and hatred in his eyes, he was extremely happy.
"Perhaps if Your Majesty behaves a little better and gives in, I will not kill him."
His voice was as deep as a poisonous snake, which made Ji Mingxiu stunned for a while, and he opened his mouth subconsciously. But the next second, he looked up and met Li Qingyun's eyes full of teasing. He swallowed his words with a dry voice, then turned his face away in embarrassment, and tears fell without warning, hitting the table.
He would never believe a word from that old fox Li Qingyun again.
But even though he knew that Li Qingyun said this just to humiliate him, he couldn't help but put aside his dignity and think about it again and again. If something really happened to Gu Zian, he couldn't forgive himself.
Perhaps Ji Mingxiu himself did not realize that at this moment his eyes were empty and lifeless, with only bright red tears dripping down his face and unable to stop.
The thin butterfly bones were bruised purple by the cold and hard table top. Li Qingyun's kisses were always hot and crazy, like a raging fire, with a fierce smell of blood.
He shivered in the heavy rain, and his wet sweat soaked the edges of the rice paper, one inch cold, one inch hot.
Until everything stopped, Ji Mingxiu sat up with the help of Li Qingyun, his loose robe draped over his arms, revealing large marks of abuse.
"You are lying to me."
His unfocused eyes finally gathered their brilliance, his red fingertips lightly rested on Li Qingyun's brow, and each word he spoke was hoarse and slow.
"Gu Zi'an is not dead, and he can't be dead."
"You can't kill him."
Li Qingyun is a person with such a personality. When the chess game is in his hands, he always takes pleasure in teasing his prey.
Now that anger has gotten so out of control that it is going to destroy everything, there is only one possibility.
Ji Mingxiu's eyes fell on the thin letter on the ground.
The matter was out of his control.
Otherwise, he could have killed Gu Zi'an silently and then used this matter to hang him as if nothing had happened.
"Oh."
A satisfying lunch calmed Li Qingyun down a lot. He followed Ji Mingxiu's line of sight and leaned over to pick up the letter.
"Your Majesty has really grown up."
His slender fingertips scratched across the paper harshly, like a cold dagger.
It was a letter of victory. Gu Zi'an had broken through Jiayu Pass with a surprising tactic and had reorganized his troops to advance eastward into the pass.
It seems that Qu Chuan has long forgotten that his mother is still in his hands.
But it doesn’t matter, he has another gift for Gu Zian, and he believes he will like it.
only.
Li Qingyun handed the letter to Ji Mingxiu and admired his ecstasy. His smiling eyes were full of pity.
"Why don't you understand, Your Majesty?
"I killed him for your majesty."
