Chapter 251 Choice
Ji Qi looked at the bedroom door in confusion. Why did they disturb him at this hour? Did something happen?
After waiting for three breaths, the other party still didn't speak, so he put down the letter in his hand and glanced at Zhuo Wangshu beside him.
With a "clang" sound, the cold light came out of the sheath and the sword swept across.
There was a loud bang and a golden light flashed.
“Click…click…click…click…click”
Two large red pomegranates rolled to the ground.
The dust cleared, and a terrified and beautiful face appeared before the two men.
Her eyes were filled with clear tears, which fell one by one.
The pupils suddenly dilated and became hollow because of excessive fright.
The lips were covered with a thick layer of frost, and the lapels of his white clothes were covered with long and narrow cracks.
The three white jade rings on her waist broke in two, shattering in half. Her body was only a hair's breadth away from being reduced to ashes.
Ji Qi's heart suddenly stopped and he quickly moved forward and hugged the person tightly in his arms.
The beauty's shattered expression hurt his eyes deeply.
how so!
Zhuo Wangshu looked at the beauty who fell into the emperor's arms in disbelief. What had he done? He almost killed the emperor and the empress!
"Yaoyao, can you hear my voice?" Ji Qi fed her the pill and said a lot of words, but Mu Yao didn't respond at all.
"Hurry up and call Rong Xianyi over!" Ji Qi yelled at Zhuo Wangshu.
He carried her to the bed and wiped away her tears. His cold fingertips trembled uncontrollably, causing him to feel the fear of dying for the first time.
Mu Yao's mind was spinning, and her heart was aching as if it had been bitten by a wild beast. Her limbs were weak and numb, and the blood in her body seemed to be rushing back to her throat, and she felt nauseous.
Rong Xianyi rushed over in a hurry, but before he could say hello, he was suddenly pulled to the edge of the bed by a big hand.
"If you can't be cured, you will die." Ji Qi stared at him with bloodshot eyes. His eyes were calm and cold as if he was looking at a dead person.
Rong Xianyi was horrified, beads of sweat the size of beans kept appearing from his forehead. He knelt on the ground and nodded repeatedly.
He placed his shaking hands on Mu Yao's wrists and forced himself to calm down. When he saw the face of the person on the bed, he stopped breathing instantly and his heartbeat lost its rhythm.
Isn’t this the empress?
His mind became even more unstable and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.
"If the emperor and empress can't wake up after half a cup of tea, they will die." Ji Qi's face turned pale. Mu Yao now looked like an empty shell without a soul.
"I...I obey your order."
Rong Xianyi's mind was no longer confused, and he pressed his fingers hard on Mu Yao's pulse and diagnosed her carefully. His eyes saw eight hideous narrow cuts on her chest, but miraculously, she didn't hurt her body at all.
How strange! Rong Xianyi has lived for half a century, but she has never seen such incredible luck. No wonder the emperor would bow down for her, this girl is born with a phoenix destiny!
"Your Majesty, the Emperor and Empress are blessed with a long life and have escaped unharmed. They do not have any external injuries, they were just overfrightened, and they will be fine after a short rest. I will go and make some calming soup right away, and after one dose, they will surely regain their consciousness." Rong Xianyi replied tremblingly.
The air pressure around the emperor was so low that he couldn't breathe. He felt that staying here for another moment might cost him his life.
"Get out!" Ji Qi growled, but his expression relaxed.
"Yaoyao." He called her softly, the tear on his chest was shocking. He took off Mu Yao's outer shirt in annoyance, but saw that the same place on his inner shirt was also covered with scars. He was so frightened that his back shirt was soaked, and he suddenly wanted to take off the "fear" that made him lose his soul.
Suddenly, a small hand covered his big palm, and the heartbeat in his chest gradually returned to normal speed, and seemed to be speeding up.
Ji Qi raised his eyes suddenly and met a pair of eyes as deep as the sea, the blazing fire burning in the eyes was clearly visible.
"Ji Qi, I want to beat you to death." Her face was calm without a trace of emotion.
Ji Qixin was stabbed hard, so he took her into his arms and comforted her softly: "You can beat me or kill me as you wish."
Just now, for a moment, I thought I would lose her forever.
That kind of creepy fear was more terrifying than falling into the eighteen levels of hell. This scene today would become his nightmare for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, God bless us.
He let go of her slightly and asked, "Why are you here so late?"
Mu Yao lowered her eyes and stared at the half piece of white jade three-linked ring left on her waist. She felt like there was something stuck in her throat, and she understood everything.
It was the ancestor who saved her!
"I came here today to go back to Southern Xinjiang with you." She replied awkwardly.
Return to southern Xinjiang?
Ji Qi was overjoyed. He thought Mu Yao would try every possible means to refuse him this time. He hugged her tightly with joy again and was so excited that he was speechless for a moment.
Today's bloody disaster left a deep psychological shadow on Mu Yao. She felt that this seemed to be a kind reminder from the ancestor.
She had ten husbands, and not everyone could get whatever they wanted like Ji Qi. If something happened to her, who would they live with for the rest of their lives?
Mu Yao was shaken.
"How many days at most can you stay here?" she asked suddenly.
"What do you mean?" Ji Qi sensed something was wrong and suddenly tightened his arms.
"I don't think today is a good sign. I've changed my mind and won't go back to Southern Xinjiang with you." Mu Yao met his gaze frankly, with a stubbornness in her eyes, which immediately set off alarm bells in Ji Qi's eyes.
"Do you want to go back on your word?" His gaze suddenly became sharp, and a storm seemed to be brewing in his eyes, dark as ink.
"Have you looked closely at the tear in my clothes? How many lives do you think I have? You don't really think I can be reborn?"
She has always been in awe of mysterious things, and has become even more so since she met Yu Heng.
Now her mind was in a mess, and she lost her usual calmness.
Ji Qi's face was calm, but his mind was turbulent and crazy.
"Do you really want to treat me like this?" Every word he spoke was filled with tears and his eyes revealed a dying struggle.
For her, he exhausted all his energy and expanded his territory.
But it doesn't get any care or recognition in return.
From heaven to hell in a flash.
He was too conceited after all.
Ji Qi stared into Mu Yao's calm eyes. She was so beautiful that he was captivated by her, but he couldn't see any trace of himself in her.
We met in the vast crowd, and eventually fell in love.
"I'll have someone take you back."
After saying this, he gave her one last deep look and strode away.
The moon hangs high in the sky, while the earth is asleep.
The wheels rolled on the street, and the sound of horse hooves rose and fell in response to Mu Yao's heartbeat.
Lu Shen and Li Dan drove the carriage together, chatting with each other from time to time, making the lonely night less cold.
The torn undershirt was tightly wrapped under Ji Qi's black cloak, hiding her embarrassment.
The imperial green jade pouch tightly held in his hand was never given away.
What happened today was an accident, but she insisted on letting Ji Qi take full responsibility.
Was it intentional or was he really timid out of fear?
The look in the eyes of her husband, who was the emperor, when they left today, had an emotion she had never seen before, which made her panic for the first time.
"Lu Shen, do you know how many days the emperor plans to stay in Mu Garden?" Mu Yao suddenly asked.
Lu Shen's expression froze: The emperor didn't say anything? What does that mean? Can't bring back the emperor and empress this time?
"Replying to the Empress, the Emperor will return tomorrow."
"This trip will probably take another ten days. How is southern Xinjiang doing recently?" Mu Yao asked with concern.
It was difficult for him to answer the questions about the affairs of the court. But he had to answer the questions asked by the emperor and empress, so what should he do?
As he was hesitating, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he replied, "Your Majesty, rest assured. As long as it's about you, the Emperor will put it first, and he will make time to come and see you no matter how busy he is."
The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of Reverie Garden.
"Empress, we're here." Lu Shen said respectfully.
Mu Yao stroked the imperial green in her hand and rethought her relationship with Ji Qi.
"Lu Shen, let's go back. Li Dan, thank you for your hard work. Please allow us to make another trip." Mu Yao said with a faint smile.
Marriage is not about dragging each other down, but about healing each other.
Since she has chosen the Emperor of Southern Xinjiang, she should show her responsibility as an empress.
