Ci Xingxuan still remembers the day of his wedding. He was very nervous, but he did not expect that his wife would say to him, "I will not touch you, don't worry. Marrying you is just a matter of interests. If you find someone you love in the future, I can arrange for you to fake your death and escape."
This sudden remark left Ci Xingxuan speechless for a moment, and in the end, he simply nodded and hummed in agreement.
The other person left the bed for him and went to the tatami mat in the outer room. Afterwards, due to various things and other reasons, they parted ways.
He rarely saw her except on major holidays, and he had no idea whether she accepted the food he sent her. He was simply fulfilling his duties as a husband; he knew nothing else.
…
Wan Ge held his hand, and Ci Xingxuan's body stiffened subconsciously for a moment, but then he relaxed inexplicably when he felt the warmth of the other's hand.
The woman in front of him said, "It's too cold in the snow. If you're not feeling well, don't catch a chill outside."
As she spoke, she led him into the house.
Ci Xingxuan remained silent for a long time, his gaze fixed on the two clasped hands.
…
The original owner had always been indifferent to him, and three years had passed. Wan Ge was afraid of frightening him, so she didn't stay long. After giving him a few simple instructions, she left his palace, but went directly to the Imperial Medical Bureau.
Wan Ge had always been in good health, so the imperial physicians rarely saw her. This time, when they saw the emperor himself come to the Imperial Medical Bureau, many of the physicians were stunned and hurriedly knelt down to welcome the emperor's arrival.
Wan Ge merely glanced at it indifferently, then asked the chief imperial physician, "How exactly is the Emperor Feng's health?"
Upon inquiry, Wan Ge learned that the imperial physician had already examined Ci Xingxuan, which is why she went directly to the imperial physician to ask about Ci Xingxuan's physical condition.
When the chief physician heard her ask this, he took a deep breath and hesitated for a moment: "Why don't you speak quickly?"
Wan Ge's tone instantly turned cold, and the imperial physician trembled in fright. He immediately said, "The Phoenix Prince seems to be born weak and sickly. He has been relying on medicine to prolong his life all these years. I'm afraid... I'm afraid... he won't be able to hold on for much longer."
In this world, someone like Feng Jun, born weak and sickly, would probably have died young if she hadn't been born into a wealthy family.
For so many years, she has been clinging to life with the help of some precious medicinal herbs, but Feng Jun doesn't take care of his health. I don't know if she can last another three years.
"What did you say!" Wan Ge's heart skipped a beat. Logically speaking, her little husband was the villain, so he shouldn't have died so early.
But Wan Ge has also encountered worlds where he is not the villain, and he has been the protagonist before. But what if he is neither the protagonist nor the villain?
What if she really was just someone else's beloved, who passed away early?
In the original owner's memories, he died too early; he left before the story even began, which made Wan Ge very uneasy.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us. We will do our utmost."
"No matter what method is used, no matter what medicine is needed, you must cure Feng Jun."
After Wan Ge finished speaking, she left. She also contacted the system in her mind. The system's medicine was very effective for her. It shouldn't be a problem for the system to deal with a weak condition.
But to everyone's surprise, Ruan Ruan said, "My lord, the system shop is under maintenance and cannot be redeemed at the moment."
