He lifted his eyelids and glanced at Ning Qing.
"My lord, I see that the flowers in the courtyard are in full bloom. How about we set up a table in the courtyard and have breakfast while enjoying the flowers?"
When Ning Qing saw his refusal, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
My wife smells so good, I wish I could hold her and be with her all the time.
The system, having overheard Ning Qing's thoughts, was so startled that it lost its balance and stumbled.
He silently thought to himself: Host, please have some decency! Are you trying to kill the target you're protecting in bed?!
Before long, Ning Qing and Jia Lan were having breakfast in the courtyard.
Jialan ate the shrimp balls that Ningqing had picked up for her, feeling extremely satisfied.
When he decided to enter the palace to assassinate the tyrannical emperor, he was already prepared to die.
At that time, what he missed most was his parents.
It's so nice to be able to eat at the same table with adults again.
Jialan looked up at Ning Qing.
"My lord, do you know what I was most reluctant to part with when I entered the palace to assassinate that tyrannical emperor?"
Ning Qing raised an eyebrow and asked with great interest.
"Oh, what's the thing you'll miss the most?"
Jialan gazed intently at Ning Qing, his eyes filled with deep affection.
"What I miss the most is... you, my lord."
Ning Qing's heart stirred slightly, and she reached out and pulled the person into her arms.
She lowered her head and gave his pink lips a deep, passionate kiss.
"So sweet."
Jialan curled her lips into a faint smile.
Ning Qing covered his face with her palm.
"If you want to go back to the bedroom for dinner, you can flirt with me as much as you like."
Upon hearing this, Jialan's body stiffened slightly.
Those three days remain vivid in my memory.
Again! What if he dies in bed?
Jialan quickly withdrew from Ning Qing's embrace, stood up, and returned to her seat.
Continue eating.
Ning Qing chuckled softly upon seeing this.
"By the way, why hasn't the old emperor died yet?"
Jialan's eyes flashed sharply, and she curled her lips into a smile.
"If I let him die too easily, wouldn't that be too easy on him? I want him to want to live but not be able to, and to want to die but not be able to, to spend his days and nights in torment, only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart."
Ning Qing nodded.
"Yes, my wife is right, well done."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jialan's eyes, and she tentatively asked.
"Don't you think this method is too vicious?"
Ning Qing shook her head and replied in a serious tone.
"No, my wife is the kindest person I could ever be."
But in his mind, he asked the system: "Little cat, tell me about the grudges between my wife and those two in the palace."
The system immediately replied: Okay, host.
Here's the thing: the father of the protected target is the younger brother of the Great Eastern Emperor. The two are siblings from the same mother and should be the closest of brothers.
Unexpectedly, the father of the person being protected, Prince Yu, was intelligent from a young age and always outshone the eldest prince, the Great Eastern Emperor.
Naturally, he also received the late emperor's praise, and rewards poured in like water.
Over time, envy, jealousy, and hatred sprouted and took root in the heart of the Great Eastern Emperor.
It eventually grew into a towering tree, and people wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible!
Until the Empress saw that the Great Eastern Emperor favored the same concubine every day.
Resentful, he devised a scheme at a palace banquet, luring the drunken Prince Yu to the concubine's bedchamber.
Then, he led the group to catch the adulterers in the act.
Although the Great Eastern Emperor saw through the Empress's tricks, he did not expose her.
Instead, they turned the tables and killed the two men.
Ning Qing nodded. The Emperor and Empress of the Great Eastern Kingdom deserved to be killed.
