After the seventh day after Jiang Zhanyuan's death, Yunchu was brought into the palace by Jiang Zhanchuan.
Only a few days after he ascended the throne, there were already thirty-two more concubines in the harem.
"'Miss, you must be ready tonight. His Majesty has specifically requested you today~"
The eunuch, with his light steps, slender waist and sharp voice, said to Yunchu. Before Yunchu responded, he turned away, muttering as he walked:
"A delicate woman like this wouldn't survive many days in this deep palace. It's better for me to stop wasting my time."
Yunchu looked at the eunuch's back as he left and sneered in his heart.
Delicate?
They were born in an era where they often had no control over their own affairs. After all, imperial power was supreme, and the power oppressed merchants, who then bullied the people. With layer upon layer of corruption, how could ordinary people have a say?
She walked to the mirror, took out the lip balm she had prepared in advance, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Then she changed her hairstyle to a lighter one and sat on the bed waiting for the man to arrive.
Sitting in the house, Yunchu could still hear the sound of wind and snow outside.
What a pity! I can’t wait until New Year’s Eve, let alone the crabapple blossoms blooming next spring.
"No matter what happens in the house, you are not allowed to come in!"
Jiang Zhanchuan was probably in a good mood and drank quite a bit of wine.
His face was slightly red and his eyes were blurry.
He was quite satisfied with the sweetheart of Jiang Zhanyuan, that good-for-nothing. After all, there was no other woman in the entire capital with such a gentle and kind temperament.
And that appearance also won his heart.
He just wondered if this woman would be as soft and delicate as he imagined when playing with her.
He rubbed his hands obscenely and pushed open the door of the room.
Although Yunchu was prepared, he was still shocked when he saw Jiang Zhanchuan.
But thinking of her plan for today, she still bit the bullet and pretended to be shy and called out, "Your Majesty."
When Jiang Zhanchuan heard the other person's soft and sweet voice, a sigh appeared on his face. When he met her in the Second Prince's Mansion that day, he didn't think her voice was so nice.
Jiang Zhanchuan twisted his waist, walked over with bad intentions, and started pulling Yun Chu's belt without saying a word.
Yun Chu swallowed, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and then he closed his eyes and kissed Jiang Zhanchuan.
Jiang Zhanchuan's eyes lit up for a moment.
This woman looks gentle and generous, but when she comes to the palace, isn't she still thinking about how to please me and how to win my favor?
It turns out that all women in this world are the same, just cheap!
He wanted to make his movements a little rougher, and a part of Yunchu's clothes had already been torn off by him.
Yun Chu calculated the time when the drug would take effect, pushed him hard, and then took out the dagger he had hidden long ago and stabbed Jiang Zhanchuan hard.
Jiang Zhanchuan didn't know what was going on after Yun Chu pushed him, and he felt a little dizzy.
Then he saw Yunchu stabbing at him with a dagger.
Although he didn't have much strength, he could still dodge the opponent's attack.
He pushed the man to the ground. No wonder she kissed him so actively just now and even applied the medicine on her lips.
"You bitch! Just because you're a sickly person, you think you can deal with me?!"
He stood up and wanted to teach this ignorant woman a lesson. He snatched the dagger that had just fallen to the ground and quickly stabbed Yun Chu.
Just when the dagger was about to pierce Yunchu's throat, the other party stopped moving, and then there was a sound of falling to the ground.
The eunuch guarding the door heard the noise, "Your Majesty, didn't beat her to death? Was that the noise inside just now Your Majesty scolding someone?"
Another eunuch shook his head. "How can a woman favored by the Emperor have the right to struggle? Besides, that woman looks like a sickly woman. Even if His Majesty doesn't beat her to death, she will be tortured to death!"
"That's not something we should worry about!"
As he spoke, sympathy showed on his face.
Even if the Second Prince took her to the border, it would be better than leaving her in the capital.
Now that the second prince is dead, can this beautiful concubine still live a good life?
Yunchu closed his eyes in fear, waiting for the other party to stab the dagger into his body. The next second, he heard the other party fall to the ground.
She breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the dagger with trembling hands, and stabbed Jiang Zhanchuan several times in the vital parts.
Jiang Zhanchuan's blood sprayed on Yunchu's face, and the strong smell of blood on her clothes made her cough continuously.
She covered her mouth with tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Delicate... No matter how delicate a person is, they won't choose to be manipulated by others."
She held the dagger in her hand and pushed open the door. The two eunuchs guarding the door were frightened to see her like this.
How can you still walk out after losing so much blood?
They looked down and saw the dagger she was holding, with blood still dripping from it.
The bright red blood fell to the ground, and the two eunuchs finally realized that something was wrong.
They hurried to check on Jiang Zhanchuan, shouting, "Help! His Majesty has been assassinated!"
Yunchu ignored their shouting.
She had no intention of leaving the palace alive after entering it.
She raised her hand, and a snowflake fell on her palm, merging with the blood on her hand.
She looked at the bloody dagger in her other hand again. She was going to die anyway, so she might as well leave in a dignified manner.
She raised her hand and pointed the dagger at her neck.
The moment the blood spurted out, the white snow was dyed with red plum blossoms, one after another.
She seemed to see Xiaotao.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll just find someone to marry you off!"
"Eh? That won't do. Xiao Tao has never even touched a man's hand in her life! How can she get married?"
She saw Xiaotao crying as she ran towards the address she had scribbled down, muttering, "Yun Xiaotao, you can't feel tired, you can't feel the hardship, the lady is still waiting for you..."
The little girl ran stumblingly, getting up every time she fell, and never stopped.
She seemed to see Jiang Zhanyuan again. He was standing in the snow, looking at where she was with indifference.
She stretched out her hand, wanting to call out his name.
But my body no longer had the strength to make any sound.
She could only look silently into his eyes, eyes without warmth...
How could she forget that he didn't love her.
He was nice to her only for some reason that she couldn't find.
He must be very distressed because of being restricted by such factors.
That's why I can't wait to go to the border.
Then I should be more sensible in my next life and not cling to him...
