Ling Yue widened her eyes and looked at the intimacy between Jun Zechen and Su Jingyao. Her eyes gradually turned red and tears flowed down her cheeks.
Her face was full of despair and unwillingness, and she looked as if the world was collapsing in an instant.
Ling Yue closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
She really lost completely.
"Why her, why her...what do you like about her?"
Ling Yue's voice was as weak as a candle in the wind, trembling constantly, and every word was filled with deep confusion and pain.
Jun Zechen put his arm around Su Jingyao's waist and glanced at Ling Yue with disgust through her shoulders, his eyes full of disdain and impatience.
Then he fixed his gaze on the woman in his arms, as if Ling Yue didn't exist at all.
He took Su Jingyao out of the secret room until he was sure that Ling Yue could not see her.
Jun Zechen bit his back teeth, and the lines on his face were as tight as stone sculptures.
The strength in his hands increased and loosened, and he struggled and hesitated for a long time.
In the end, he pushed the woman in his arms away.
He didn't want Ling to laugh at her, so he didn't want to say anything harsh in front of Ling Yue.
But that doesn't mean he isn't angry.
After Jun Zechen pushed her away, he turned around and strode away, leaving behind a gust of wind.
Su Jingyao felt helpless and hurriedly followed him.
But Jun Zechen's long legs took him three steps at a time, so there was no way she could catch up with him.
"His Majesty!"
Su Jingyao shouted softly, her voice echoing in the corridor of the secret room, extremely clear, and there was a hint of grievance in her voice.
Jun Zechen's body suddenly paused, as if he was under a spell, but his steps slowed down unconsciously.
But Jun Zechen could not feel the movement of the woman behind him, and he turned around angrily.
But he saw Su Jingyao standing there motionless, staring at him with a wronged look, tears welling up in her eyes and rolling around in them.
What is she aggrieved about? !
Isn't he the one who has been deceived by her?
Jun Zechen frowned, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
With a dark face, he walked quickly to her side, took her hand without saying anything, and strode out of the secret room.
Su Jingyao followed him with her head down, a sly smile like a little fox quietly curled up at the corner of her mouth, and her smile contained a pride that was difficult for others to detect.
Returning to the bedroom of Kunning Palace, Jun Zechen's face was filled with anger and he slammed the door shut.
A loud "bang" was heard.
Miaoxia stood outside with a worried look on her face, pacing back and forth anxiously, muttering to herself, "What should I do? What should I do?"
Anshun stood aside calmly, his eyes peaceful, and just sighed slightly.
Jun Zechen pushed Su Jingyao against the door, with his hands on both sides of her body.
His tall figure created an oppressive aura, staring down at her.
"General Ling, was it Yaoyao who killed him?"
His voice was low and filled with suppressed anger.
She actually dared to kill someone, what else didn't he know?
Su Jingyao ignored his anger, lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
She looked up at him with a firm gaze, nodded and winked, not making any excuses for herself.
But she added, speaking with extreme precision, "It was I who gave the order and sent people to kill him."
It means she didn't kill him with her own hands.
His tone was calm, and he didn't seem to have any problems.
Seeing her honesty, Jun Zechen was stunned for a moment. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Did I do anything wrong?" Su Jingyao looked at him innocently.
The ancient rule was that everyone prospers together and everyone suffers together. Ling Yue's attempt to murder the royal family was a heinous crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of the family. It was only natural for her to kill her father.
What's more, she kindly let Ling Yue make the choice, and it was Ling Yue herself who gave up her father.
The cruel one is Ling Yue, could it be her too?
Jun Zechen looked at her with a complicated expression, his brows furrowed, and his heart was in turmoil.
Did she do something wrong?
She was right. He had originally planned to send someone to kill Ling's father.
But the reason he was shocked and angry today was that he didn't expect her to kill someone.
I have never seen her so imposing and aggressive today.
Her eyes were no longer as gentle as before, but full of sharpness and decisiveness. She was completely different from before!
"You're right, but I didn't know Yaoyao was also a person who could kill people without being noticed while chatting and laughing."
Jun Zechen's tone was filled with disbelief, his voice trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with astonishment and unfamiliarity.
He wanted to know what this woman was hiding from him, but he was also afraid that everything she hid from him would be unacceptable to him.
Su Jingyao raised her slender eyebrows, slowly raised her right hand, and placed her jade-like fingers on Jun Zechen's neck.
His thumb slid slowly and nonchalantly across Jun Zechen's Adam's apple.
Her movements seemed casual, yet she carried a sense of control and composure.
Because of her movements, Jun Zechen's Adam's apple rolled uncontrollably a few times and his breathing became slightly rapid.
Su Jingyao's eyes were calm and focused on his Adam's apple, and there seemed to be a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"Your Majesty has always been very kind to your first wife. I have no place to vent my anger. Why should I not dare to kill someone who deserves death?"
Her voice was soft, yet contained a hint of chill.
Jun Zechen's expression instantly turned gloomy and ugly, and his teeth clenched.
"How do you know I won't kill Father Ling?"
"If Your Majesty could use the same ruthlessness towards the Ye and Lin families on the Ling family, then perhaps I wouldn't have to do it myself."
