Liu Lieyu looked at me with angry eyes. I weakly shifted my gaze elsewhere, thinking to myself, "Is Liu Lieyu going to kill me?"
"Why didn't you say you were feeling unwell sooner?" Liu Lieyu asked, suppressing his anger.
"I already told you..." I whispered, reminding you, "I told you from the beginning that I couldn't walk anymore, and that the clothes were too complicated and the jewelry was too heavy."
Liu Lieyu paused for a moment, then said, "You only said you couldn't walk, I thought it wasn't serious."
I continued, "Later you threatened me not to faint, so I didn't dare to say anything more."
Liu Lieyu seemed to have a heart attack from anger. "Is it my fault again?"
I pursed my lips and didn't say anything; neither yes nor no would be a good answer.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Liu Lieyu sneered in anger, "Who was it that pretended to faint to deceive me before?"
Sure enough, he found out last time... But if he found out, why didn't he expose me then? Why did he bring me back? I was a little confused.
"Huh? You think you can get away with it by not saying anything?"
"I was wrong." Never mind, it's always good to apologize.
Liu Lieyu didn't buy my perfunctory apology. "You said something wrong? You're probably cursing me in your heart, aren't you?" As he spoke, Liu Lieyu reached out his hand, which was ice-cold, and touched my slightly warm face.
What exactly is this person trying to do? Even an apology isn't right?
Liu Lieyu suddenly pulled his hand back, stood up, and put his hands behind his back. "You should rest well. Once you've recovered, we can do it again."
"Again??" I asked incredulously. Shouldn't Liu Lieyu be very busy? He seems quite free to me.
"If you faint again next time? Then come again. I have plenty of time to waste with you." Liu Lieyu leaned close to me, his nose almost touching mine.
I could only look at Liu Lieyu with a speechless expression. He really had nothing better to do. Was this ceremony really that important to him?
Liu Lieyu stared at me with his narrow eyes, smiled, straightened up, and left.
Seeing that Liu Lieyu was about to leave, I quickly called out, "I will take good care of myself, so please don't harm them."
I didn't mention the name "You" for fear of provoking him.
Liu Lieyu slowed his pace slightly, then quickened his pace and left the room. My door closed as usual.
Sigh, how long are they going to keep me locked up like this? I looked at the tightly closed door and sighed.
I wonder if Zifeng has told her aunt about this. If Feiyan is willing to help me, then there is hope for You and me.
"Wisteria, Wisteria." As soon as Liu Lieyu left, I jumped out of bed and leaned against the door to call Wisteria's name.
"Your Majesty, what is it?" This time, Zi Teng did not push the door open to enter, but asked through the door.
"Wisteria." I knocked on the door and spoke to Wisteria through the door, "Wisteria, go and call your aunt."
The wisteria outside the door remained silent for a long time without responding to me.
I knocked on the door again and called out, "Wisteria?"
"Imperial Consort, I will not go to my aunt. Forget about it." Zi Teng's slightly indifferent voice came.
Oh? You don't want to?
“Wisteria, I clearly heard Donghuang say that day, ‘If I want to see Wisteria, then let me.’ Are you disobeying Donghuang’s orders?” I directly brought up Liu Lieyu. Luckily, I overheard what Liu Lieyu said outside the door that day.
Seeing that I mentioned Liu Lieyu and that so many people were listening outside, Zi Teng dared not openly disobey and could only say, "Please wait a moment, Your Highness, I will go and fetch my aunt."
