The cumulus clouds, as thick and gloomy as snow-capped mountains, pressed very low, and the lead-gray clouds blocked the light completely, and the entire capital city became gloomy.
The magnificent palace looked like a crawling giant beast. After the pale golden halo faded, only the terrifying and eerie appearance remained.
The first drop of rain fell, and then a torrential downpour came.
A eunuch quickly turned the corner, carefully holding a tray in his hand, which contained freshly boiled medicine.
The medicine was delivered.
Not long after, a crisp sound was heard from inside. The sound of porcelain breaking was drowned out by the sound of rain, making it difficult to hear clearly.
"ah!"
Then, another scream came from inside.
There was no other sound.
After the incident of vomiting blood in the imperial study, the emperor has been bedridden and all important memorials are directly delivered to the bedroom for his review.
The bedroom was heavily guarded, with only those who delivered potions and memorials allowed inside, and no one else was allowed to approach.
When the emperor fell ill, the empress was also confined to his bedside to serve him.
I don’t know what kind of torture this beautiful person will suffer.
Not long after the eunuch who delivered the medicine left the palace, he met an acquaintance.
"How is it? Is Your Majesty feeling better today?"
The eunuch who delivered the medicine shook his head and said, "I didn't see anyone, so I don't think it's good. I heard that even the medicine bowl was dropped."
How can this person get better if he doesn't take medicine?
The heavy rain hit the umbrella, but the rain was too heavy and my body was still wet.
The two people who had a brief conversation met and parted, and the news passed through the layers of palace walls and flew into the hands of those who were interested.
However, in the palace.
Mo Qin threw the memorial at Jun Ye and ran to the table angrily and sat down. Jun Ye was leaning on the bed wearing only a thin inner garment, with his long black hair scattered on the brocade quilt.
His raised lips were an overly bright red, and under his loosely opened collar, two scratches could be vaguely seen, which were obviously made last night.
Mo Qin's tone was filled with resentment, "You are sick in the house, why can't I go out too?"
Jun Ye turned over from the bed, stepped on the ground barefoot, and walked towards Mo Qin without tidying up his clothes.
"Wouldn't it be better if you stayed here with me?"
Mo Qin turned her head away and didn't look at him, refusing him with her actions.
Seeing someone coming to sit next to her, she stood up and was about to leave, but Jun Ye grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. He put his arm around her waist and hugged her in his arms.
Mo Qin tried to break free, but Jun Ye wouldn't let her go. "Hurry up and read your memorial!"
He didn't even look at the memorials, but just whispered coaxingly, "Read them to me, I'm still sick."
Jun Ye's face was rosy and there was a cunning light in his eyes. He looked like a child playing a mischievous game and didn't look sick at all.
It would be fine if I didn’t mention it, but as soon as I mentioned Mo Qin, I got angry again.
Previously, Jun Ye said that he didn't want to read the memorial and begged Mo Qin to read it to him. Mo Qin thought that this man was betrayed by his good friend and it was very pitiful, so she agreed.
But before she finished reading a book, this person became unruly. Mo Qin glared at him, but he not only did not stop but asked her to continue reading.
She sneered, "You wish!"
As the two men pulled each other, Jun Ye's clothes became more scattered, but he didn't care at all.
"Okay, then don't read the memorials, do something else."
As he said this, he continued what he had not finished before.
"Your memorial hasn't yet..."
"It's okay. It won't take half an hour to finish reading those memorials. It's not too late to read them later..."
What Yun Rongsheng did did not seem to leave any trace in Jun Ye's mind. Except for the fact that he sat there for several hours on the day of the incident, his subsequent plans were all carried out in an orderly manner. Even after claiming to be sick and locking himself in the room, he did not forget to have fun.
Apart from the necessary things, life is extremely absurd.
It was one of the rare indulgences he had experienced in the past twenty years.
-
The rain continued to fall the next day.
Jun Chen sat on the bed listening to the sound of rain outside the window, feeling more and more irritated.
Yesterday, a letter was delivered from outside the mansion, saying that the troops he secretly dispatched had arrived at the designated location. Everything was ready, and they were just waiting for Jun Ye to collapse and die.
He casually flipped through the book on his lap, imagining a bright future over and over again in his mind, even his dreams in the past few days were about that.
Suddenly there was a commotion outside the house, and the dull and complex sound of footsteps came closer and closer.
He frowned, doubt and uneasiness exploded in his mind. His thoughts were like willow catkins drenched by heavy rain, nailed into the mud, stagnant and unable to move.
"How dare you..."
Bang--
The carved wooden door was knocked open without warning.
Low, heavy footsteps stained with mud and water came in. The general in armor had a sword hanging at his waist. Raindrops were dripping on his cold armor and scabbard. The person following behind him was holding a bright yellow imperial edict.
The cold air that rushed into the house as he did so made Jun Chen shiver.
Jun Chen's heart sank, his slightly pale face was dignified without anger, and he didn't show any panic at all.
"What is General Lin doing?"
General Lin's cold eyes were like sharp blades, and the corners of his mouth were raised, full of pride and sarcasm.
"The emperor has issued an order. This general knows that the prince has difficulty walking, so he has come to announce it to you."
As he spoke, two people came forward and the imperial edict embroidered with dragon patterns was slowly unfolded. It was a long piece of white silk that strangled his throat, like a blade that cut off his head.
Jun Chen's head was buzzing. The voice of General Lin reading out the imperial edict was heard above the heavy rain outside, destroying his will with every word.
After an unknown amount of time, the imperial edict was finally read out.
To sum up, Jun Ye intended to rebel, and his house was confiscated and he was thrown into prison.
"Your Majesty, please accept the order." General Lin said and laughed again, "Look at my memory. Your Majesty has difficulty walking and cannot accept the order."
The person who was holding the rolled-up imperial edict next to him understood and handed the edict to Jun Chen with both hands.
Jun Chen's face was as gloomy as water, and he raised his hand to knock down the imperial edict.
"Good job, Jun Ye! Are you so impatient?"
General Lin was not annoyed. He placed his right hand on the hilt of the sword at his side and said, "Your Highness, the evidence is irrefutable. Don't struggle like that."
Jun Chen supported himself on the edge of the bed with both hands, as if he wanted to get up, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Hahahaha, Jun Ye, even though he's bedridden, didn't forget to kill me! If you want to kill me, have you ever asked my 200,000 soldiers?!"
General Lin turned around and paused, but instead of being frightened, he smiled.
"Your Highness may not be aware that there was unrest at the border a few days ago. Qu Meng, Guan Jie and others returned to the capital without imperial decree and were executed last night."
Jun Chen's eyes widened in anger. "What?! This is impossible!"
Whether it was the court or the army, his arrangements were well-organized. With good news pouring in these days, how could he possibly fail?
The heavy rain hit the branches, and the small branches drooped and dipped into the mud. In the distance, shrill cries and pleas for mercy were heard. The thick water vapor in the air made the distant scenery blurred.
Suddenly he seemed to smell the smell of earth and blood.
