Chapter 555 Jiang Yue Extra (3)
【Nightmare. Dream within a dream】
After Dijiang and Jiujiu got married, they lived a happy life. For a long time, Dijiang had a smile on his face. Many people said that he had changed. He seemed to have really changed. The haze that had accumulated in his heart since he was a child seemed to have dissipated.
He had silently thanked God countless times for being so kind to him and he was very grateful to God.
But on this day, Dijiang had a nightmare.
What did Dijiang dream about?
.
Late at night, in the Longyu Palace, the lights were on brightly. The cold emperor, dressed in auspicious clothes and holding a wedding scale, slowly came to the bride sitting on the bed. He first glanced at the bed, which was full of red dates, peanuts, longans and lotus seeds, meaning a son would be born soon.
But he was unmoved, and there was not the slightest ripple in his heart. He used a wedding scale to lift up the red veil on the bride's head as if he had completed a task.
Feng Caiwei's face was revealed under the red veil.
Feng Caiwei was wearing a phoenix crown and a shawl, and she looked very dignified and elegant. The heavy makeup added some advantages to her originally flat facial features, making her look better. Today, she could be described as "beautiful", especially her flaming red lips, which were extremely attractive.
"Your Majesty." Feng Caiwei slowly raised her head, looked at Dijiang with a smile, and said, "It's time for us to settle down."
There was no sense of relaxation in her voice, only the tension of facing an emperor who held the power of life and death and could take her life with just a single word.
Feng Caiwei was very afraid of displeasing Dijiang, so she was very cautious and observed his words and expressions all the time.
Dijiang's deep eyes were full of indifference, and he was not moved by Feng Caiwei at all. He hummed perfunctorily, walked straight to the table covered with a red cloth, poured himself a glass of wine, and started eating.
Feng Caiwei followed and looked expectantly at the empty red wine glass next to Dijiang, hoping that Dijiang would also pour her a glass of wine. After all, today was their wedding day, and they should drink the wedding wine together.
However, Di Jiang seemed to be unaware of the wedding wine. He drank by himself without even glancing at Feng Caiwei, and drank five glasses of wine in succession.
With these five cups of wine, he congratulated himself in his heart that he had finally taken revenge, unified the world, and become a powerful overlord. He no longer had to live cautiously, his fate no longer had to be determined by anyone, and he no longer had to suffer.
He had a little joy in his heart, but only a little. The rest was just endless emptiness and loneliness.
It's lonely at the top.
He lacks the warmth and joy that ordinary people have.
Everyone around him is calculating, no one is pure, he is so tired.
Feng Caiwei had no idea about this. She waited for a long time, and seeing that Dijiang had no intention of drinking the wedding wine with her, she poured herself a cup and said, "Your Majesty, will I have a drink with you?"
Dijiang remained silent, as if he hadn't heard these words.
Feng Caiwei drank a few cups weakly. Because she drank too much and couldn't handle the alcohol, she felt a little drunk in a short while and was not sober anymore.
She dared to say out loud what she usually kept in her heart and dared not say.
She looked at Di Jiang with tearful eyes, who had no regard for her at all, and said, "Your Majesty, outsiders say that you admire and dote on me, so you let bygones be bygones and married me, a woman from Western Chu, as your queen." She knew that His Majesty hated everyone in Western Chu.
"Only I know that you married me only for the unification of the world and for the little beast-taming skills I know."
Although her ability was obtained with the help of drugs and was insignificant, and could not even compare to that of the Mermaid Saint Jiao Yan back then, and could not even reach the toes of the Mermaid Saint Jiao Yan, fortunately, she was the only one in the world who could do it, so she was more than capable of using the art of taming beasts to deal with people, and it was enough to help Di Jiang unify the world.
The reason why she could marry Dijiang and become his queen today was also due to her past achievements in taming beasts.
Her achievements in taming beasts were not great, but they were enough to beat those noble ladies who wanted to marry Emperor Jiang, and to conquer the court officials from all over the Southern Kingdom, so that they would jointly petition Emperor Jiang to marry her and make her his queen.
Dijiang did not raise any objection and married her.
But their hearts are not together.
"You don't have me in your heart at all." Feng Caiwei's words were full of resentment.
When Di Jiang heard these inappropriate and offensive words, he looked at Feng Caiwei with a sense of oppression, "Queen, what are you talking about?" He didn't like what he heard, and a chill emanated from his whole body.
Even though Feng Caiwei was drunk, she was still very afraid of the aura emanating from Dijiang.
She clenched her fists, not daring to say anything else, and tried her best to endure it.
Di Jiang snorted coldly, shook his sleeves, and was about to leave.
Feng Caiwei saw this and hurriedly followed him. She bravely hugged Dijiang from behind and begged, "Your Majesty, please don't leave. I beg you, please don't leave. Today is our wedding day. Tonight, we should become real husband and wife. You can't leave!"
She didn't want His Majesty to leave.
I don't want to be laughed at by everyone in the palace when I wake up tomorrow.
"Queen, you are becoming more and more out of control." Di Jiang commented extremely coldly without turning his head, and then looked at the maid standing beside him.
The maid understood and hurried forward to help pull Feng Caiwei away.
Feng Caiwei was unwilling and wanted to continue sticking to her, but the maids pulled her roughly and fiercely. Their attitude did not seem like they were treating the queen, but rather a servant who had committed a crime.
There was no way. In this palace, no one dared to disobey Di Jiang, and no one dared to displease this young but cruel emperor.
Everyone wants to live a good life.
After Feng Caiwei was pulled away, Di Jiang left.
As soon as Dijiang went out, he took off his cumbersome auspicious clothes, revealing the black clothes underneath.
Chu Yang was waiting outside. When he saw Di Jiang, he nodded and said, "Your Majesty."
Di Jiang hummed and looked at Chu Yang unhappily, as if he was angry. How could he do this? He actually carried Feng Caiwei to his bedroom?
You can no longer keep this bedroom.
Chu Yang was so shocked by this look that he broke out in a cold sweat. He said with trembling lips, "Your Majesty, I don't know what I did wrong."
"I don't know?" Di Jiang snorted coldly, "Go down and get thirty military sticks, and think about it carefully."
After saying this, Di Jiang left. He carried a pot of wine and came to the highest place in the palace. He sat on the roof, enjoying the breeze and drinking alone under the moonlight.
The world is so big and the palace is so magnificent, but there is no place that makes him feel like he belongs.
Even if he became the best man in the world, his heart would still be empty. He would still feel inexplicably sad and would still be troubled by the shadow of being a hostage in Western Chu. He would still need to lock himself in an empty room and face the pain that was like falling into the abyss alone, crying and screaming at the top of his lungs.
"I must be sick." Di Jiang said to the moonlight while drinking.
