When Shu Qingmu came out, he also saw Wan Ge kneeling there. His sharp eyes fell on her slightly swollen cheek. Half of her face was swollen. That was interesting.
Besides, wasn't it just said that the Empress was unwell due to her pregnancy? Yet she knelt in the snow for so long, didn't the Emperor feel sorry for her?
Shu Qingmu didn't know what was going on. That dog emperor didn't seem to care, but he inexplicably felt a pang in his heart.
“Brother Qingmu.” Wan Ge looked up at the person in front of her.
When the words "Brother Qingmu" were uttered, Shu Qingmu felt a sudden pang in her heart.
The two hadn't crossed paths for many years, but these four words inexplicably reminded Shu Qingmu of their childhood.
It wasn't about romantic love; it was just the carefree feeling of childhood that inexplicably stirred his heart. Back then, the beautiful woman before him was just a little dumpling, obediently following behind him and calling him Brother Qingmu.
"He won't feel sorry for you, get up." Shu Qingmu reached out her hand to Wan Ge in front of her.
Wan Ge didn't respond; she simply lowered her head again.
What Wan Ge wanted wasn't the other person's pity; she hoped that someone who would care about her had already appeared. As for the dog emperor, Wan Ge truly didn't care.
"Why do you have to do this?" As Shu Qingmu finished speaking, she felt a gaze on her back.
With a helpless sigh, he whispered in Wan Ge's ear, "Coming to me might be more effective than begging him."
After saying that, he said to Wan Ge again, "This humble subject will take his leave now."
After Shu Qingmu left, Wan Ge met Ye Zhaobai's eyes. He was extremely angry, as if he was about to kill her.
Wan Ge slowly got up from the snow. She had probably been kneeling for too long, and her legs were a little numb, so she staggered slightly.
However, Wan Ge quickly regained her composure, brushed the snow off her body, and left without saying a word under Ye Zhaobai's gaze.
…
Before nightfall, Ye Zhaobai arrived. Sure enough, after everyone had left, Ye Zhaobai's face changed instantly, turning gloomy and filled with violence: "Ji Wange, do you want to die?"
"When His Majesty was using me as a pawn, didn't he think that he would kill me sooner or later?" In the story, the original owner had already become a deposed empress in the cold palace, but because An Shuke said: "I feel particularly sad when I think that His Majesty's wife was not me."
Without a second thought, Ye Zhaobai bestowed upon him a cup of poisoned wine.
Ye Zhaobai sat down in the chair, his cold gaze fixed on Wan Ge: "So you want to die now?"
“If I could die now, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.” Wan Ge’s smile was mocking, a smile Ye Zhaobai had never seen before.
In my memory, Ji Wange has always been a very sensible and well-behaved person. She would never disobey him, let alone do anything to make him angry.
Wan Ge sat down opposite him, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip: "When I was young, I went out to see the lanterns without my father's knowledge, but in the capital, there were people riding horses in the street. I was scared, and because I had learned some martial arts from my father, I could run faster than other women. Just because I ran in front of a woman."
I became her shield, forced to bear the brunt of all the intrigues and schemes in the harem. If this is my fate, I accept it. But why does His Majesty still target the Ji family and harm my father and brothers?
The Ji family has always been loyal to the emperor and loved their country. They believe that His Majesty favors them above all others, and they would never dare to have any disloyalty to His Majesty. So why can't His Majesty tolerate them?
