Chapter 490
However, Jiang Yanche, who was living a life worse than death every day, had no time or energy to think about how to win over Wen Xin.
Especially recently, he has noticed that his body is becoming increasingly weak. Even though it's the height of summer, he's bundled up as if it were the dead of winter; he's cold, very cold.
He would also have uncontrollable convulsions at night.
Jiang Yanche understood that the side effects of the medicine that Granny Wan had given him had appeared.
He was scared!
He didn't want to die!
How could he die?
Jiang Yanche did want to resist, but he had spent all the points he got from sleeping with Xu Ming, and the props he used on Granny Wan and the others were ineffective.
He did complain and argue with the system.
Initially, the system would compensate him with new items, but later it simply ignored him.
"System, save me, save me!"
Once again, Jiang Yanche convulsed as if having an epileptic seizure, painfully pleading for help from the system.
Sorry, host does not have enough points.
The system spoke coldly.
"I need to pay on credit, system. Please help me first. I will work hard to complete the tasks and pay you back the points. Trust me."
Sorry, the system does not offer a credit service.
Jiang Yanche could easily tell that the system didn't want to save him.
Why?
It brought him to this terrible world, how could it not save him?
Everyone looks down on him, and everyone wants to harm him...
They're all cheap sluts! Cheap sluts!
Jiang Yanche's face was contorted with rage, his initial plea for help turning into a torrent of curses.
The system coldly blocked all his foul language.
Sure enough, even with good fortune, a loser is still a loser. Pshaw!
Jiang Yanche was tortured to the point of near death, and the next day he went mad. He hid a dagger in his sleeve and decided that he would rush to the lakeside pavilion to see Empress Fengyuan no matter what.
If she obediently gives him the strategy, then things will be fine; otherwise, he'll just kill her.
All despicable people deserve to die!
Haha, if he's not having an easy time, they shouldn't expect to either.
However, just as Jiang Yanche had mustered a bit of desperate courage from the torment of physical pain, the result was...
Granny Wan and the others did not appear today.
The Empress no longer goes to the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
The next few days were the same; Jiang Yanche was forgotten and left to fend for himself in the cold, dilapidated palace.
Later, he overheard the palace servants discussing that with the arrival of the hot summer, His Highness the Regent was worried that it would be too hot in the palace and that His Majesty's health would not be able to withstand it, so he ordered that His Majesty go to the Royal Summer Palace and would not return to the palace until before the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Jiang Yanche, who had mustered the courage to turn evil and pull off a big heist, found that nobody took him seriously: "..."
Ugh, you slut, you slut!
The system just watched Jiang Yanche go crazy like a twisted maggot, coldly calculating when he would finally die so it could pack its bags and find a new home.
"Your Highness?"
When Xu Ming arrived, he saw the bedroom in a mess, and Jiang Yanche sitting on the ground in a disheveled state.
Upon hearing the voice, Jiang Yanche, his face contorted in pain, lunged forward and grabbed her leg as if grasping at a last straw, pleading, "Ah Ming, please save me, please save me."
Xu Ming looked at Jiang Yanche, who was in such a sorry state that he looked like a stray dog, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
"Is His Highness alright?"
"Ah Ming, I'm in so much pain, I'm going to die. It's because of those medicines the Empress gives me every day... You, you must find a way to save me."
Xu Ming's eyes flickered. She naturally knew what kind of medicine it was. It wasn't fatal, but it would make people wish they were dead.
It was a secret drug used in the imperial palace specifically to torture people.
She just didn't expect that the little empress would be so ruthless as to use it on Jiang Yanche.
He really is a psychopath!
Unfortunately, she hasn't had the chance to serve in front of the Empress these days, nor has she been able to find an opportunity to send Jiang Yanche to her for torture.
But these things were not enough to make Xu Ming panic. What made her most uneasy was that she realized that the Imperial Guards were ostracizing her.
This terrified Xu Ming. Had the emperor discovered something?
Now Xu Ming dares not underestimate that young empress in the slightest.
If the Empress were to discover her affair with Jiang Yanche, not only would she be doomed, but the entire Xu family would be ruined.
Xu Ming gritted her teeth. She had been careful enough; how could she have been discovered?
Or was it that the emperor himself was suspicious, and because of Jiang Yanche, he began to suspect her?
Thinking about this, Xu Ming wished she could kick Jiang Yanche out.
It's all because of this despicable man!
If he hadn't seduced her, how could she have...
No, she couldn't let the Empress harm her and the Xu family.
Xu Ming's eyes were full of ruthlessness. The Empress was the first to be ruthless, so she shouldn't blame Xu Ming for being disloyal.
She suddenly squatted down, looking at Jiang Yanche with deep affection, "Ache, I've already aroused His Majesty's suspicion because of you, but I don't regret it, because I love you, and I won't stand by and watch anything happen to you..."
Under Xu Ming's gentle comfort, Jiang Yanche's originally fearful and ferocious face gradually calmed down, and a glint of infatuation appeared in his eyes, as if he could give everything for the woman in front of him.
The offspring gu that backfired on the mother gu is extremely powerful. If Xu Ming were willing, Jiang Yanche would instantly become her puppet.
The system also sensed the change in the Heart-Connecting Gu. Even though it had no heartbeat, it felt as if its heart was about to explode.
Weird!
This little world is fucking incredibly weird!
From the day Jiang Yanche went to the artificial hill to find the Little Empress, it was suddenly blocked, and then the offspring Gu suddenly turned against the mother Gu. This was something that the power of this small world could not have done.
Who exactly is it?
Could there be other systems operating here?
But it didn't notice.
That can only mean that the other party's level is higher than its own.
No, it needs to leave Jiang Yanche, that good-for-nothing, as soon as possible and seek the protection of other people with great fortune, lest it end up being devoured.
Therefore, the system made no attempt to warn Jiang Yanche, allowing him to be controlled by Xu Ming and court death.
...
While Xu Ming, Jiang Yanche, and a system were secretly causing trouble behind the scenes, the grand imperial procession had already arrived at the Royal Summer Palace.
The villa was built on the mountainside of a place called "Qingshan" not far from the imperial city.
When Wen Xin heard the name of the mountain, she dropped the sunflower seeds in her hand.
Aoyama or something?
I feel that my mental state is alright, and there should be nothing wrong with me, right?
Little Gold thought to itself: No, this is a serious problem. The master is already in the late stage. Please don't give up on treatment.
And then, that was it.
Another day, Xiao Jin turned into a dead butterfly.
Wen Xin asked Granny Wan who gave her the name Qingshan.
Granny Wan was puzzled as to why the young empress suddenly cared about the name of a mountain, but she still answered truthfully: it was the founding emperor of Fengyuan.
Wen Xin: "..."
Oh, so it was my ancestor who had a problem.
"Ahem, by the way, Granny, who decided on my reign title, Tianqi?"
Granny Wan: "Your Majesty, it is the Regent."
