Chapter 283 Feed You with My Own Hands
"Don't be so eloquent. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
But he still put the sword back.
When Concubine Hui saw this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but tears kept flowing down her face.
"Your Majesty, I was wrong. I shouldn't have tried to murder the Queen.
But you can't blame me, I just love you too much, I just want you to have only me in your eyes, is that wrong?"
"I just want Your Majesty to feel more at ease and not be trapped in the entanglement and pain of the past. Is that wrong?"
Every word Concubine Hui said was heart-wrenching, and Emperor Rongcheng gradually calmed down from his initial anger.
He looked at Concubine Hui and snorted coldly.
"Don't try to be so clever with your words. No one knows my feelings for Ah Hao better than you, yet you want to harm her? This isn't for me, it's clearly harming me!"
Concubine Hui immediately knelt forward.
"But she doesn't deserve it!"
"She is not worthy of your love, Your Majesty!"
"She doesn't love you at all, and she never cared about you at all. Otherwise, why would she lock herself up in Jingyu Palace for so many years and ignore you?"
"Because she doesn't care about you, and doesn't care about your joys or sorrows."
"I really can't bear to see Your Majesty acting so complacently just because of a single word from her.
You are His Majesty!"
"So, I will help you kill her even if I risk being punished by you!"
Concubine Hui was in tears and spoke earnestly.
Emperor Rongcheng glanced at her, turned his head away and shouted angrily.
"Confused!"
"idiot!"
After he finished speaking, he sighed and his tone softened a lot.
"No matter what, you can't touch her!"
"No one can touch her, you know?"
Concubine Hui nodded hurriedly.
"I was wrong. I was misleading at the time, but now I have come to my senses and am trying every possible way to remedy the situation. Look at this antidote. I have already prepared it. Your Majesty, please give it to the Empress."
"When her poison is cured, Your Majesty can punish me!"
Concubine Hui knelt on the ground, holding the "antidote" high above her head with a pious attitude.
Emperor Rongcheng glanced at her, then took the antidote and strode away.
Only after Emperor Rongcheng left did Concubine Hui curl the corners of her lips and smile with satisfaction.
"What are your feelings for her?"
"Oh!"
"I want to see what you will do when you find out that you poisoned the woman you love most with your own hands."
Emperor Rongcheng took the latest "antidote" he got from Concubine Hui to Jingyu Palace, but he still couldn't find Jiang Xianhao.
He searched all the rooms in Jingyu Palace, becoming more and more worried. Finally, he found Jiang Xianhao sitting quietly in the warehouse.
"Ahh?"
Jiang Xianhao turned around, her eyebrows curved and the corners of her lips slightly raised. The sunlight shone in from outside and sprinkled on her eyebrows.
It was as if her face was coated with a layer of gold, so beautiful and otherworldly.
And the smile on her lips was the same as it was back then.
Emperor Rongcheng's heart began beating uncontrollably again.
He slowly walked to Jiang Xianhao, squatted down in front of her, and looked up at her.
He spoke in a low voice, afraid to disturb her.
"Ah Hao, why are you here?"
Jiang Xianhao continued to laugh.
"I remembered something and came to take a look."
As she spoke, she handed the things in her hands to Emperor Rongcheng one by one.
Emperor Rongcheng lowered his head and the first thing he saw was a box.
The box is not exquisite and looks quite old. It is dirty and has some other marks on it.
He frowned slightly.
"What's this?"
Jiang Xianhao's eyes paused, then he curved his brows and continued, "You don't remember, this is the box you used to store earthworms!"
"The earthworms here were almost alive, but I fed them to death."
Jiang Xianhao said this and sighed with some regret.
Emperor Rongcheng paused, looked up in disbelief, and his hands holding the box kept tightening.
And the words from that year, following the traces of time, suddenly resurfaced in his ears.
"Ah Hao, don't marry Li Wenci. He has other women, and the love he can give you is only a little bit."
But I am different, Ah Hao. I am an emperor now, but you are the only one in my heart.
"Ah Hao, I promise, I won't have another woman in the future. I will love you with all my heart."
So, will you marry me?
Jiang Xianhao's laughter echoed in his ears.
"You fool, I've already told you, if you can catch a hundred earthworms and use them to catch a hundred koi, I'll marry you."
The words of the past seemed to be ringing in his ears, but they made Emperor Rongcheng's face turn pale in an instant.
“Ah…”
His throat was dry and he uttered two words with difficulty, his face showing an unprecedented embarrassment.
But Jiang Xianhao stood up, smiled and threw the box aside.
"I just happened to see it. It's already dirty. Your Majesty, please don't touch it."
She said, throwing the box aside.
A "clang" sound made Emperor Rongcheng's heart tremble violently.
His eyes were involuntarily drawn to the box and he looked over uncontrollably.
But Jiang Xianhao pulled him up and walked out of the warehouse.
Standing in the courtyard and looking at Jiang Xianhao's face, Emperor Rongcheng felt much better.
He quickly took out the "antidote" in his hand.
"Oh, this is the antidote. Take it quickly. Once you take it, you will feel better."
Jiang Xianhao nodded, looked at the pill in his hand, and suddenly raised his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I'm a little scared. Can I not eat?"
"The imperial physician said that I don't need to take the antidote now."
Emperor Rongcheng thought Jiang Xianhao was just being petty, so he couldn't help but emphasize his tone.
"Ah Hao, I know you're holding onto what happened back then. But what happened with Concubine Hui was just an accident. I wanted to explain it to you, but it's already happened. Please stop holding onto it, okay?"
"No matter what you do, you can't go against your body. This antidote must be taken for seven consecutive days to detoxify. This is only the first day, you must take it."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Jiang Xianhao's eyes.
Be petty?
Emperor Rongcheng saw that Jiang Xianhao looked unhappy, so he couldn't help but slow down his tone and said soothingly:
"I know you don't like taking medicine, so I specially ordered someone to prepare some candied fruit for you. Eat one right after you finish your meal."
Emperor Rongcheng said this and personally placed the "antidote" into Jiang Xianhao's mouth.
Jiang Xianhao looked up at him without blinking, then slowly swallowed the pill.
She slowly closed her eyes, and Emperor Rongcheng breathed a sigh of relief.
He immediately took out a candied fruit and gave it to Jiang Xianhao to take.
"Okay, you'll be fine after taking the medicine. I'll come back tomorrow and feed you myself."
