Chapter 76 I've been waiting for this moment for a long time...
Ji Qingwu looked up at him; the man's jawline revealed a sharp, cold handsomeness.
Her expression changed as she realized she had been crying for a while.
My eyes can see clearly now.
Emperor Wusu's gaze fell on the tea table not far away, a storm raging in his eyes, as if he were deep in thought.
Ji Qingwu felt that she looked too pathetic tonight and didn't want to face him like this.
So, she pretended that her eyes hadn't fully recovered and groped her way out of his embrace.
Emperor Wusu said in a cold voice, "Don't move, let me hold you a little longer."
Only by holding her a little longer could he temporarily suppress the murderous intent churning within him.
After venting her emotions in his arms, Ji Qingwu felt better. She belatedly felt ashamed that she, a grown woman, was crying and sobbing so inappropriately, and had even soaked his clothes.
Thinking about her current appearance, she looked down and saw that her clothes were indeed disheveled and her hair was messy.
"Your Majesty." Her voice was muffled, with a thick nasal tone.
The man gave a soft "hmm".
Ji Qingwu struggled slightly, and Emperor Wusu then lowered his eyes to look at her.
His expression had lost its anger, like the calm yet profound sea after a giant wave has subsided, undisturbed yet ready to unleash an even greater storm at any moment.
Her eyes and nose were red, her eyelashes were already wet, her eyes were misty, and there were clear tear stains on her face.
After being washed by tears, the petals on her delicate face showed a tenderness like water.
Emperor Wusu's eyes dimmed slightly as he asked, "Are you feeling unwell?" Ignoring her slight struggles, he held her tighter and continued, "Do you know what kind of drug you've been given?"
Ji Qingwu nodded and said, "The doctor invited by Prince Yong said so."
"You can't see anymore?"
Ji Qingwu quickly lowered his head, rubbed his eyes, and mumbled, "Ah, yes, I can't see very clearly."
Emperor Wusu stroked the back of her head and said heavily, "We need to detoxify her as soon as possible."
Detoxification?
Just thinking about this method of detoxification...
Ji Qingwu's face flushed red, and she said somewhat flusteredly, "Your Majesty, I'm not feeling that bad. Perhaps I'll feel better in a little while."
"This medicine is extremely potent. Do you know how to counteract its effects?"
The woman's face was already delicate, and after crying, it was even more flushed. Upon hearing the question, it immediately turned bright red.
Ji Qingwu emphasized, "Your Majesty, I really don't feel bad anymore, really. Look, I can still speak, I can still hear, and I can still move my body. I'll be completely fine in a little while."
"This medicine will cause the loss of the five senses, but will the other senses remain normal?"
Her tone was firm: "As usual."
Emperor Wusu looked at her for a while, fearing that she was putting on a brave face, and said, "I want to inspect it myself."
He knew her abilities, but the medicine was potent and could be fatal if not handled carefully, so he couldn't take the risk.
Ji Qingwu was puzzled. Even the old doctor hadn't mentioned her loss of the five senses. How was he supposed to examine her?
Emperor Wusu took her hand and placed it on his waist, where a silver sachet with dragon and phoenix patterns hung down.
"Test your sense of smell first."
Beneath Ji Qingwu's soft palms lay firm and vigorous muscles.
He said softly, "Smell it, and then tell me what it smells like."
So that's how it was tested; it was within her acceptable limits.
Following the downward pressure, Ji Qingwu leaned down and pressed against his waist and hips, her nostrils twitching slightly as she sniffed.
Not long after, she lifted her head from his waist and said confidently, "Ambergris is the main fragrance, but the scent is subtle, soft, clear and elegant, and should also have the scent of seaweed, wood and moss."
A burning fervor rose in Emperor Wusu's eyes, and he chuckled, "That's right, you guessed correctly."
"If your sense of smell is fine, what about your sense of perception?"
His hand lifted her radiant face, his fingertips touched the side of her neck, and finally lingered on her collarbone, causing her to tremble.
He asked, "Can you feel anything here?"
Ji Qingwu nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, I can feel it here." Then, somewhat embarrassed, she asked, "Is the examination complete?"
"Awu, you need to tell me in detail how you feel. Otherwise, I won't know if you're just putting on a brave face and lying to me that you've recovered."
Ji Qingwu was a little embarrassed to describe the feeling, and said, "It's just... a little itchy, and numb."
Seeing the ripples in her eyes, Emperor Wusu raised an eyebrow: "You don't feel anything special? That's too ordinary a description."
Ji Qingwu didn't know how to say it to satisfy him.
Emperor Wusu's deep gaze fell on her heaving chest.
Her clothes had come loose during the earlier struggle, and that hand moved down her collarbone.
As the undulating snow-capped mountains were touched by warm fingers, Ji Qingwu let out a soft moan, her eyebrows immediately softening with a touch of shyness.
"It seems there is consciousness here."
There was no need for her to answer; Emperor Wusu had already done so for her.
His mischievous palms continued to knead and press her skin without leaving any gaps.
Ji Qingwu hurriedly tried to grab his fingers, but she couldn't stop him from forcefully pushing downwards.
He continued to ask questions, his voice deep and resonant, like the strains of an ancient zither.
"And what about this place?"
Veins also appeared on Emperor Wusu's arms, and his muscles bulged powerfully.
Its touch is as warm and smooth as white jade, far surpassing the slipperiness of perfume.
Shallow dust and narrow imprints, allowing no words.
Even though Ji Qingwu bit her lip and tried her best to suppress it, a faint murmur still escaped from between her teeth.
The man who lit the fire withdrew his hand and said seriously, "Hmm, there's no problem with sensation."
The familiar heat surged up again, and she began to wonder if the poison hadn't been neutralized. Why was it even more unbearable than before? Ji Qingwu had even tried to hold his hand down to prevent him from leaving.
"There's one more sense left." Emperor Wusu lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Awu, do you remember what it is?"
Her lips, delicate as flower petals, were pursed slightly.
Ji Qingwu's intuition told her that this was not a serious test, so she quickly suggested, "How about we taste the tea? I can tell the difference in flavor."
She glanced around the room and noticed a white tea set on the table; her eyes lit up.
"I'll go make some tea."
After saying that, she lightly tried to get off the ground and leave his side.
The person had just stood up, their feet not yet touching the ground.
Ji Qingwu was suddenly grabbed by the waist and lifted up. In a dizzying moment, she was pinned down on the bed.
My back was covered in soft bedding, so it didn't hurt, but the position I was in was very oppressive.
There's no escaping it, no way to break free.
Ji Qingwu tried to turn her head away, but he was prepared. He cupped her face in his large hand, his fingertips still playing with her earlobe.
Those watery eyes no longer held any trace of gloom; they were clear and bright.
Emperor Wusu pulled her wrist, squeezed it, and smiled slightly.
"Little liar."
His eyes were like moonlight, full of tenderness.
Knowing she was in the wrong and shouldn't have lied to him about this, she said, "I didn't mean to deceive Your Majesty, I just..."
"What I want to hear from that mouth is not an apology."
Emperor Wusu stared intently at her face; beneath the crimson silk robe, her skin was as smooth as ice.
The look of panic in her eyes had disappeared, replaced by a hint of shyness.
He had been planning this moment for a long time.
The unfinished words were completely drowned out, and his aura swept over everything, leaving no place to hide.
At first, she was quite gentle.
With obvious restraint and reverence.
But it quickly turned into sucking and biting, and the force became wild.
Her heart was pounding, and her long eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.
