When she was planning to fake her death, she didn't realize how much he liked her, so why was she pretending to be so affectionate now?
A trace of annoyance flashed across Su Jingyao's face.
But Jun Zechen is the emperor, she can't gamble with Jun Zechen with Li Jing and Zhongli Mingchuan's lives, because Jun Zechen really can kill people.
Su Jingyao grasped the tip of Jun Zechen's sword against Li Jing's neck without hesitation, and slowly increased the strength in her hand, preparing to push the sword out.
If Jun Zechen didn't hold back, her hand would definitely be cut by the sword.
Su Jingyao didn't know what Jun Zechen's attitude towards her was now, so she could only test it lightly.
This also determines how she will treat him if she goes back with him.
Seeing that Su Jingyao was willing to save this wild man regardless of her own safety, Jun Zechen became even angrier and his chest heaved violently.
But his sword was extremely sharp, and Jun Zechen withdrew the sword in an instant for fear of hurting her hand.
Then he roughly grabbed her hand, pulled hard, and lifted her directly onto the horse.
Jun Zechen turned around and ordered the secret guards behind him: "Lock these two people in jail." His voice was as cold as ice.
After saying that, Jun Zechen squeezed the horse's belly hard and galloped back to the city.
The gate of Jiangzhou had been closed long ago, but Anshun was still waiting at the gate.
Seeing His Majesty coming back, Anshun breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked closely, he found that there was a woman in front of His Majesty. As His Majesty got closer, Anshun saw the woman's face clearly. He felt his eyes go dark and he almost fainted.
Did he find someone similar again or...
The Queen is back?!
Anshun's heart was beating wildly and he stood there in a daze.
Jun Zechen had no obstructions and went directly through the city gate back to his residence in Jiangzhou.
Along the way, his face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
After bringing her back to the house, he carried her straight back to his room and threw her onto the bed like an object.
Jun Zechen stood by the bed, his arms folded across his chest, looking down at her condescendingly.
His eyes were so cold that they seemed to be able to freeze people into ice sculptures.
"Tell me, why did you fake your death?"
His voice was low and suppressed, and he squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.
Su Jingyao frowned at his rude behavior and felt a little unhappy.
But Jun Zechen was angry now, and she couldn't argue with him at this time.
However, judging from the fact that he immediately retracted his sword when she grasped it just now, Jun Zechen might still care about her?
The Queen's fake death is a crime of deceiving the emperor. In this era, it is not excessive to exterminate all nine clans of the Su family.
Seeing that she didn't speak and her eyes were wandering, as if she was distracted, Jun Zechen's anger was ignited again.
"Oh."
He laughed out of anger.
"When you first said you wanted to be the Queen, I granted you my wish. Ever since you entered the Eastern Palace, I have always granted your wish. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
His voice rose higher and higher.
"I learned from Anshun that the imperial physician who has been by your side only entered the palace when you were five or six months pregnant. Are you attracted to him? So you'd rather fake your own death than leave me?"
Jun Zechen stared at her intently, wondering how she could dare to do such a heinous thing.
Su Jingyao blinked suddenly, wondering if he had misunderstood.
She said no, does he believe it?
Su Jingyao felt a little headache. She took a deep breath and whispered, "It has nothing to do with him. He and I are just brother and sister."
Jun Zechen, who had been wearing a tense expression the whole time, finally calmed down a little when he saw that she was finally willing to speak and explain. His heart, which had been suppressing his jealousy, finally calmed down a little.
The facial muscles are no longer so stiff, but the eyes are still complex and deep.
He lowered his eyes and looked at her with complicated eyes.
"So you faked your death and left the palace because of me?"
"Because I favored another woman?"
He couldn't think of any other reason except this. She was indeed jealous of this at the beginning. He spoiled her and made her arrogant and willful. But he didn't expect that when she was unhappy, she would even fake her death and leave the palace.
Su Jingyao frowned, not knowing how to answer his question.
She didn't mind him because he favored other women, but because she never thought of him as the same person as Jun Zechen in her previous two lives.
So Su Jingyao didn't care whether he favored others or not.
Just like Jun Zechen in her first life, she didn't care at all in the early days whether he favored other women.
Since they have traveled to this era, Su Jingyao naturally will not judge them with modern morality. They have their own responsibilities and obligations, but Su Jingyao also has her own choices and principles.
What's more, in this life, after Su Jingyao recovered her memory, she did not continue to attack Jun Zechen's heart. She also did not feel that Jun Zechen loved her very much five years ago, so it was normal for him to favor others.
She thought that by faking her death, she could make the story of this world return to its origin, and Jun Zechen could become the cold and ruthless emperor in the original book again, but...
Su Jingyao slowly raised her eyes, her gaze clear and firm, looking at him seriously.
"Your Majesty should have learned about Ling Yue's past life from her. Ever since Ling Yue left the palace, memories of her past life have begun to appear in my mind."
She paused and continued, "I want to leave because you are not him..."
Su Jingyao spoke the last few words softly, but each word struck Jun Zechen's heart.
He was stunned for a moment, never expecting that this was the reason!
"The man in your previous life ignored you when you entered the Eastern Palace and fell in love with Ling Yue. After he ascended the throne, he also favored other women and even required you to find ways to get the position of Queen."
