Chapter 170 Children
Chapter 170 Children
Le Xingxi stood to the side, her small face tense. Hearing His Majesty's words, disgust welled up within her: "Your Majesty, I have always been myself. I am not anyone's possession!"
General Yue seemed utterly fed up with this cat-and-mouse game in the palace!
She personally stepped forward to grab Zhongtian. Although Zhongtian was incredibly strong, he was no match for a battle-hardened general like General Yue!
Nakata was brought before His Majesty, bound hand and foot.
Jiang Yuxiao looked at Zhong Tian, forcefully handed a knife to Le Xingxi, and said to him, "Xingxi, kill her. As long as you kill her, everything will be over!"
Le Xingxi's hand holding the knife trembled. He examined the dagger carefully! A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and without hesitation, he turned and stabbed at His Majesty.
His Majesty was unable to dodge in time and was stabbed in the stomach.
His Majesty clutched his wound, and asked with some sadness, "Xingxi, I love you so much, and you hurt me!?"
Looking at the blade in his hand, Le Xingxi said to His Majesty, "If you dare to hand me this knife, I dare to stab you. The knife in my hand will never be pointed at Zhongniang! I will always, without hesitation, choose her!"
Jiang Yuxiao pulled the dagger from her stomach and pointed it at Le Xingxi, who retreated step by step!
"Le Wentao, if you don't act now, things will truly reach a point of no return!"
Zhongtian said to Yue Wentao who was standing next to him.
The wound inflicted by Le Xingxi was not large. Le Congxi did not want His Majesty to die, otherwise, would she have only stabbed His Majesty in the stomach instead of her heart?
Le Wentao walked over. He had broken free of his restraints and went to His Majesty's side. Looking at the bloodstains on His Majesty's stomach, he felt strangely happy.
He pressed His Majesty's wound with his slender fingers. Le Wentao's fingertips were stained with blood. He put them in his mouth and tasted them. His mouth was immediately filled with the taste of blood.
"His Majesty's blood is no different from that of ordinary people!" After saying that, he immediately pressed down hard on the wound.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on His Majesty's forehead. "Le Wentao, what are you doing?"
"Your Majesty was just wondering if you would feel pain if you were injured. Now it seems that Your Majesty is only human and will feel pain when you are injured!"
"Guards, take Lord Yue away!"
However, the people inside the hall did not move at all.
A sudden wave of terror washed over Jiang Yuxiao, causing her head and feet to spasm with tension, which aggravated the wound on her stomach and made her break out in a cold sweat.
She was well-prepared to deal with Prime Minister Jiang, but faced with the completely unexpected situation before her, she was at a loss.
"Your Majesty, my mother is now in power in the palace."
Jiang Yuxiao looked at General Yue: "General Yue, do you want to rebel?"
General Yue looked at His Majesty with the affection of a loving mother and said, "Your Majesty, I only have these two biological sons. Aren't you afraid that treating them like this will break my heart?"
Jiang Yuxiao knew that things had reached a point of no return. She had given them her full trust, but they had betrayed her in return!
She looked at Yue Wentao and said, "Wentao, let me go. I can give you anything you want."
Le Wentao smiled mockingly: "Your Majesty, you've remembered me now. What I want, Your Majesty cannot give me. Since you cannot give me love, then I will take something else!"
The Peach Blossom is a lush, man-eating flower that needs love and care. As long as His Majesty gives it enough love, it can thrive.
But since His Majesty was stingy with what he gave, he could only grasp at other things to keep himself from withering away.
Jiang Yuxiao was horrified to find that his body was weak and powerless, and he couldn't muster any energy. He looked at Le Wentao and asked in horror, "Le Wentao, what exactly did you do to me?"
Le Wentao said without any embarrassment, "Do you remember the medicine His Majesty drank last night? His Majesty was full of energy and very powerful last night, but this medicine also has side effects!"
Le Wentao, supporting His Majesty, addressed the assembled crowd, saying, "You can handle the rest yourselves. I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with His Majesty." His words were laced with ambiguity.
General Yue blushed slightly, nodded, and said, "...Alright."
The matters in the palace were quickly resolved. General Yue possessed bows and crossbows, weapons capable of killing, which gave him the greatest say.
Under the coordination of Master Li, the affairs of the palace were handled in an orderly manner, and her slightly hunched back gradually straightened up.
"Thank you very much, Master Li." Zhongtian stepped forward to express his gratitude.
"Lord Zhong, my family name is Tian. You can call me Master Tian!"
Zhongtian readily agreed, saying, "Master Tian!"
Master Tian looked around the palace with a deep expression, then said with a smile, "Lord Zhong, the world is about to change!"
……
Le Wentao helped His Majesty to the bedside and carefully bandaged him. His Majesty looked at Le Wentao squatting by the bed and slapped him, making a crisp sound.
Le Wentao stood up and stared at His Majesty for a while. Without warning, he slapped His Majesty across the face, leaving a clear red handprint.
"My dearest Majesty, do you still not understand the situation?"
"It seems His Majesty is in good health, so let's get on with our work!"
Jiang Yuxiao took a step back in alarm and asked hesitantly, "What do you want to do?"
"Your Majesty, of course we should have a child."
"Let's have a child! As long as we work hard, we'll have one! This child will become His Majesty in your place, and I will become the supreme Empress Dowager, ruling from behind the curtain. You can stay in the harem with me day and night!"
"Madman! Madman!"
Jiang Yuxiao wanted to stand up and fight back, but she was too weak to do so.
Jiang Yuxiao carefully took off His Majesty's clothes and placed them on the bedside table: "Your Majesty, taste what it's like to be forced. Don't worry, your servant will be very gentle."
The room was filled with the colors of spring.
It wasn't until dawn the next day that Yue Wentao finally got dressed, somewhat satisfied. The imperial physician knelt on the ground and carefully took her pulse.
"Your Majesty is in good health and there is no problem with you conceiving a child!"
"That's good."
Master Tian stood somewhat solicitously in front of Prince Le, taking his arm and saying, "Prince, it's snowing for the first time outside. Would you like to go out and enjoy it?"
"No, I need to go find my dear younger brother and resolve the last problem in my life."
Meanwhile, at this time, the Kunning Palace...
Le Xingxi was about to leave, his face beaming with joy, chattering incessantly to Jingtai. He couldn't stand staying in the palace for even a day longer.
Just then, a knock sounded on the door, and Yue Wentao's voice was like a ghost: "Little brother, are you still in the palace?"
