Chapter 729: Strategy for the Blind Villain (25)
Since Taifu Qu was bedridden, Shi Yi often went out of the palace to visit him. However, no matter how many famous doctors treated him or how precious the medicines were, his illness did not improve. Shi Yi could only watch his body deteriorate day by day.
Shi Yi cried several times by his bed, and each time Ji Jingrong personally took her back to the palace to comfort her. After so many times, Ji Jingrong was reluctant to let Shi Yi leave the palace. To be precise, it was not that he was reluctant, but he felt sorry for his queen.
The whole harem knew that the queen was the weather vane of the emperor's mood. When the queen was happy, the emperor would be happy even if he was busy and exhausted; when the queen was unhappy, the emperor would be unhappy even if he had free time to visit the garden and watch a play.
The emperor and the queen had a good relationship, and they were happy to see it. It was just a pity that the queen had not been pregnant since she entered the palace.
On this day, the sun was still shining, and Ji Jingrong personally brought gifts to visit his father-in-law at Taifu's mansion.
"Father, you are feeling better." To show his affection, he stood directly in front of Master Qu's bed. However, he blocked the light from Master Qu's reading.
"Thanks to you, I am not going to die yet." Qu Mingzhu put down the books that he had to finish reading, looked at the tall young man, and found that his noble aura had formed a "momentum".
This shows that the young man has already secured the throne of the emperor.
Yes, in this court, anyone who opposed him has almost died.
"What are you talking about, father? Sooner or later, everyone will die." Ji Jingrong smiled, took the medicine bowl from the housekeeper, took the initiative to take the task of feeding medicine, and casually mentioned the death of the eldest princess Ji Yun in the prison riot.
"You are cruel." Qu Mingzhu looked at the man in the dragon robe, his eyes were silent for a long time, and he closed his eyes to hide the admiration in his eyes.
Those who accomplish great things do not care about trivial matters. The emperor is not very old, but his character and actions are more cruel than those of ordinary people. In the future court, he doesn't have to worry about his old bones.
It's just a pity for Ji Yun.
He had long advised Ji Yun not to interfere in the affairs of the court, but Ji Yun relied on the fact that the emperor was born in her belly and never took his words to heart. In the end, she brought about her own destruction.
"Father, if I wasn't cruel enough, I would be the one to die." The spoon in the young man's hand was against his lips, and the light liquid exuded a faint sweetness, which was completely different from the overly thick medicine juice in the past.
Qu Mingzhu glanced at the porcelain bowl, and a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
He suddenly remembered that time when he was summoned to the Qinzheng Hall by the young man late at night in the heavy snow to discuss matters. The young man promised that he would only have such a queen in his life and would treat her well with his life.
After returning that day, his old bones no longer had any worries, so he gave up his original thoughts. Thinking of the late emperor who was walking in front, he felt a little bit of cold guilt. When people are so lazy, their bodies can't keep up, and their hearts are lazy, so they just lie there all the time.
He swallowed the medicine without resistance, lay down neatly, and slowly closed his eyes.
After a long time, Ji Jingrong put down the medicine bowl and reached out to feel his breath. It was warm and cool before being cold. He covered the old man with a quilt and walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.
On the way, he thought of the people who died at his hands: Ji Yucheng, Bai Yuer, Wang Baolin, the late emperor, the eldest princess Ji Yun, and now there is another Qu Mingzhu.
They are all dead, and his sister can be with him forever.
When he walked out of Qu Taifu's house, he accidentally tripped over the threshold.
The housekeeper who sent him out immediately knelt down to apologize. He raised his hand and said gently, "It has nothing to do with you. Leave."
He smelled the scent of flowers in the air and sat in the dragon sedan. Somehow, he recalled the past.
Qu Mingzhu has always been reluctant to see his "bastard" because he caused his wife to lose her life. At that time, Qu Jingrong also understood this and never took the initiative to appear in front of Qu Mingzhu.
After the death of the former crown prince Ji Yucheng, he entered the palace as a prince. This was the first time that Qu Mingzhu and he had an open conversation in the East Palace.
"Are you sure?"
"Father should know better than me."
They were clearly talking about the most rebellious thing in the world, but both of them looked calm, as if they were talking about a trivial matter of whether to add tea leaves to tea.
"You know, I have always been reluctant to marry Shi Yi to you, because I am afraid that she will suffer with you." Qu Mingzhu sighed. For the first time, he lowered his head in shame. He knew that his father-in-law despised him for being born with an imperfect body.
"Do you know why I agreed later?" Qu Mingzhu put her hand on his shoulder. This was also the first physical contact between the two of them.
His lips moved for a moment, and before the three words "why" came out, Qu Mingzhu had already told him the answer.
"Because I bet you won't let her down."
It was this conversation that made him determined to become the emperor.
In this world, the most noble woman is the queen who is the mother of the country.
He may not be the emperor, but his sister, the daughter of the Grand Tutor, must become the most honorable one in the world - the queen.
————————————
The brocade bag that Shi Yi promised to embroider on the day of his enthronement has been embroidered intermittently from last year to this year, and it has finally taken shape. When she was about to put away the needle, the reminder sound suddenly sounded -
[Task completed, harvest [redemption]]
She smiled for a moment, and the next second a fierce scream rang in her mind -
[Character collapse, character collapse, no leaving, no leaving]
Fu Sheng appeared from nowhere, grabbed her wrist and penetrated all obstacles at the speed of wind to come in front of Ji Jingrong.
"What are you going to do?" In this rare gap, Shi Yi spoke.
Fu Sheng and Ji Jingrong stared at each other for a long time through a thin layer of air medium, and suddenly used the fire of rebirth to devour Ji Jingrong's soul.

【Skills harvest collection, leaving the first-order world and entering the second-order world strategy】 The sonic boom in Shi Yi's mind gradually subsided, and she released the hand holding Fu Sheng, and her consciousness separated from her body.
At the same time, the entire small world they were in was suddenly destroyed.
Fu Sheng wanted to hold her consciousness from leaving, but was suppressed by an invisible force. He could only watch Shi Yi disappear.
