Chapter 493: A Fall from Gold



"You are a woman, yet your appetite is so big." Ji Heng couldn't help but sneer at her, but found that she didn't seem angry and stopped talking. However, he lost his appetite after sitting with this woman.

"Food is the most important thing for people. Didn't your parents tell you this?" Gu Yunru was starving. She hadn't eaten or slept well because of Nangong's matter.

"I heard that you transported Nangong's body back to a foreign country. I didn't expect that your myth of bringing back the dead is not effective at all. Thinking about the fact that my Ruotong died in your hands, I find it hard to believe that you really wanted to save Miss Nangong."

Gu Yunru rolled her eyes silently, stuffed the pig ears and duck wings into her mouth, and after eating all the delicious stewed food, she looked at him calmly and said, "If you can't talk, don't talk. I never said that I can bring people back to health. There are many doctors who are better than me."

"I don't think so."

"Oh? What's the matter? Do you want to ask me for the antidote?" Gu Yunru teased him deliberately. She felt unhappy when she saw that he usually acted like a big shot.

"You said what the antidote was and what you gave me to eat. You should know better than anyone else." Ji Heng didn't want to face her directly and turned his head away awkwardly. It was really shameful to talk about such things. He didn't expect that this woman's face was as thick as a city wall.

"I really don't know. Just tell me your symptoms and maybe I can prescribe the right medicine. If you don't want to tell me, then I'll leave."

"You!" Ji Heng knew that this woman was deliberately making things difficult for him, but he had no other way to deal with it, so he had to bite the bullet and quickly spit out a few words. Gu Yunru pretended to be shocked and said, "What do you mean you are impotent?"

All the guests present at the dinner table cast their eyes towards Ji Heng's face. This Master Ji had some reputation in the city. Now everyone knew his secret and burst into laughter.

Ji Heng drew his sword angrily and pointed it at them, "If anyone of you dares to laugh again, I will immediately make him lose his head!" He threatened them so much that everyone tried hard to hold back their laughter, and their mouths were almost twitching.

"Oh, this young man has such a bad temper. Actually, to cure your impotence, it's very simple. Just take some powerful pills, like Jin Ge. I have a good Jin Ge that can prolong the duration."

Ji Heng heard that Gu Yunru asked him to come to the restaurant to discuss this matter just to mock him. He directly put the sword on her neck, but Gu Yunru didn't even blink, instead she looked at him arrogantly, "If you think you can get the antidote by killing me, then do it quickly. Do you know that what you are doing is disrespectful? I am the Princess of Zhao."

This scene was quickly reported to the palace by someone with ulterior motives, and even to the ears of the emperor and Lord Ji. The emperor was furious! He directly called Lord Ji and gave him a severe reprimand. Lord Ji returned to the mansion and was sweating profusely. How could this rebellious son dare to be so disrespectful!

When Ji Heng came back, he slapped him twice, which made Ji Heng see stars and take a big step back. "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"You still ask me what's wrong, how dare you be so rude to the princess, you rebellious son, rebellious son!" As he was about to pull out the stick to chop him, Ji Heng quickly took out the hilt of the sword to resist and quickly slipped back to the backyard. This journey was really not smooth. It must be a plan set up by that woman! Lord Ji summoned all the maids and housekeepers in the mansion and gave an order not to let the young master go out of the door. He was locked up for a whole month and was not allowed to send him food. He could only be sent a bowl of bran rice porridge every day. If anyone violated this order, he would be kicked out of the house! Everyone understood tacitly, and when they saw Ji Heng, they lowered their heads and retreated ten steps away, just because they were afraid that because of what they said to the young master, it would be heard by the adults, and then they would be kicked out. Five or six days passed, and Ji Heng lay on the bed without going anywhere. He was so hungry that he could make a sound.

At this moment, he heard a furtive movement outside the door and immediately sat up straight. It was Shu'er. Shu'er came in with a few steamed buns and a few plates of pickled vegetables, put them on the ground and said, "Husband, please eat quickly. There are only so many things left in the kitchen."

The thing that he disliked the most on weekdays has now become his life-saving straw. Ji Heng felt a sense of bitterness and irony in his heart. He would never eat this steamed bun even if he died. He turned around and closed his eyes indifferently.

Her stomach growled again, and Shu'er sighed helplessly, "Dad did this just to warn you, so that you don't make the same mistake again next time. Don't be angry with Dad. How can you be full with just one bowl of millet porridge a day?"

"You don't need to care about what happens to me, and you don't need to come and see me in a hypocritical manner. I am in such a miserable state today because of your aunt."

Ji Heng still hadn't forgotten the woman's ridicule and humiliation. Now everyone knew his secret, but they didn't even give him the antidote.

Shu'er felt ashamed. She took a deep breath and walked forward and said, "If you are still blaming my aunt, then I will apologize to you on her behalf. I will ask her for the antidote now."

"Don't go!" Ji Heng turned over and walked in front of her, with a murderous look in his eyes, "If you dare to go out, I will kill you on the spot." Ji Heng suddenly felt the primitive impulse spreading in his heart, and the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous, as if sending a very obscure signal. He suddenly felt the heat in his body becoming more and more intense, so he tried to press her to the bed. Sure enough, after trying this, his impotence was finally cured.

After half an incense stick of time had passed, Shu'er's face flushed. She slowly put on her clothes, sat up and said, "It seems that my aunt was just trying to scare you. This thing will get better naturally as long as the time is up, so don't be angry anymore."

"Of course I won't argue with a woman, and the same goes for you. If you dare to complain to her behind my back again, you will suffer the consequences. Just leave your things behind and you can go."

Ji Heng was still as indifferent as usual, without any warning. Shu Shang had already gotten used to her moodiness, so she nodded and left the room.

The next morning, Shu'er wanted to secretly send him some food, but she heard the sounds of laughter and playfulness in the house. Curiously, she lay down by the door, but heard unbearable panting.

"Sir, this is not a good thing to do. If the lady knew about this, she would definitely not forgive me."
