Xuanyuan Qi led two servant girls and brought plates of sumptuous and exquisite dishes to the west side of the Vast Wind Restaurant, a small room filled with flowers and trees.
"Huan 'er, you're up? The doctor said that your body is still very weak. Why don't you lie down and rest more?”Xuanyuan Qi came to Chu Huanyi's side and said this to Chu Huanyi, who was staring out the window. At the same time, he reached out and helped Chu Huanyi back to the bed.
Chu Huanyi didn't refuse, but she didn't say anything either. She just looked at Xuanyuan Qi quietly as if she was looking at a stranger she had never met before.
Xuanyuan Qi didn't mind. He picked up a bowl of porridge, picked up a few delicious dishes, and handed them to Chu Huanyi." Eat, Huan 'er. It's good to drink the medicine after you're done."”
Chu Huanyi did not move at all and continued to glare at Xuanyuan Qi." Your Highness, why are you so good to me?”
Xuanyuan Qi was stunned and couldn't help but laugh." You're my wife. If I don't treat you well, who should I treat well?”
"Is that so? Can you not care about my past and not even care about me losing my virginity?”
Xuanyuan Qi shook his head and caressed her face." What's the use of caring? Can caring change the fact that you've already lost your virginity? Besides, you didn't do it willingly. Eighth Brother forced you, right?”
This time, it was Chu Huanyi's turn to shake her head." No, you're wrong! The emperor didn't force me. I was the one who was willing to be with him, willing to give myself to him, willing to be his wife.”
Xuanyuan Qi was a little stunned. Anger appeared in his deep eyes, but he quickly returned to normal." I don't believe it! We swore in front of the Vermillion Bird Maiden that we would take care of each other and support each other for the rest of our lives. Neither of us would betray the other, or else we would suffer the pain of being burned by the heavenly fire. That's why I don't believe that you'd be willing to marry him.”
Chu Huanyi revealed a faint smile." It's true. I was really willing to give it to him. Not only that, I even gave him the Nine Phoenix Ring.”
Xuanyuan Qi was shocked." You what? Say it again?"
Chu Huanyi raised his head and said calmly,""I said that I gave him the Nine Phoenix Ring so that he could go to the Phoenix Palace to see the Jade Kylin that was rumored to have an ancient divine beast hiding in it.”
When Xuanyuan Qi heard this, he was instantly enraged. He slapped Chu Huanyi so hard that he fell to the ground." You damned b * tch. It's fine if you let him sleep with you, but you actually gave him the Nine Phoenix Ring? Don't you know that the Nine Phoenix Ring should have been mine? Why did you give it to him?"
Chu Huanyi smiled coldly." Because you're not worthy!”
Xuanyuan Qi's eyes narrowed dangerously." What did you say?”
"I said that you don't deserve the Nine Phoenix Ring.”
"Why am I not worthy? I traveled thousands of miles from the Southern Qin to Dunhuang. I went through countless hardships, passed through forty-nine checkpoints, and tasted the torment of water and fire in eighty-eight sixty-four places. You even lowered yourself to kneel and kowtow to your eldest sister in order to obtain the Nine Phoenix Ring. I didn't expect you to actually give the Nine Phoenix Ring to Eighth Brother? You…you deserve to die!"
The furious Xuanyuan Qi slapped Chu Huanyi again. At the same time, he grabbed her long hair and pulled her up from the ground." Speak, why did you give the Nine Phoenix Ring to him?”
"Because the Nine Phoenix Ring is a heaven and earth spiritual item, the Phoenix Palace's guardian treasure. It's impossible and cannot be given to a person like you who poisoned your biological father.”
"What do you know? What do you know?" Xuanyuan Qi threw Chu Huanyi heavily onto the ground and stepped on her body. Chu Huanyi almost cried out in pain." Do you know the pain of being taken away and exiled? Do you know the hatred of having your wife and daughter snatched away? Do you know the unwillingness of being compared to others in every way since you were young?”
Chu Huanyi's eyes were filled with tears, and she could barely breathe. However, she endured it and continued,"I'm not interested in the fight between you brothers, and I don't want to know either, but I know that the throne can only be passed on to those who are capable and virtuous. A person like you who colluded with your mother, killed your father and brother, and attempted to usurp the throne will never inherit the throne!”
" You…" Xuanyuan Qi rolled his eyes as if he wanted to kick Chu Huanyi to death. However, a thought suddenly entered his mind, causing his anger to turn into joy.
Xuanyuan Qi grabbed Chu Huanyi's chin and forced her to face him." Huan 'er, do you really love him so much that you're willing to sacrifice yourself like this?”
Chu Huanyi was stunned." What…what did you say?”
Xuanyuan Qi snorted." You already know that Ruyan and I plan to capture Eighth Brother alive and force him to abdicate. That's why you want to anger me and make me kill you so that Eighth Brother won't have to worry about anything else and can focus on dealing with me, right? Indeed, a woman's heart was the most vicious! What have I done wrong for you to treat me like this?”
Chu Huanyi's face instantly turned pale." You…"
"It's too late, Huan 'er. It's already too late!”
"What do you mean?"
Xuanyuan Qi pulled Chu Huanyi up and dragged him to the window. He pointed at the billowing smoke, the sound of the carriage, and the shouting outside." Do you know what that is?”
Chu Huanyi's body trembled as he watched the approaching hooves. That was…
A sinister expression appeared on Xuanyuan Qi's face." That's the sound of Eighth Brother fighting with someone. If I'm not wrong, Eighth Brother should be in a tough battle now because the thousand guards he brought out have long been drugged. So before long, we will be able to see how the dignified emperor of the South Qin country was tied up and sent to this Haofeng Mansion in a sorry state! Hahaha!"
Chu Huanyi turned around and looked at him in disbelief." He's your biological brother, but you still want to kill him?”
"Even if I don't kill him, he will kill me. Besides, how can a mountain accommodate two tigers, how can a country accommodate two monarchs? With him, there would be no me, and with me, there would be no him!”
Chu Huanyi nodded." I understand now. So you're such a person.”
"Oh? What kind of person am I?"
Chu Huanyi didn't answer, but a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face." It doesn't matter what kind of person you are. What's important is that I won't let you get what you want. Even if I die, I won't let you have your wish. I won't let you and Chen Ruyan hurt the Emperor!”
Before he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Qi suddenly smelled a fragrance coming from Chu Huanyi's mouth. By the time he noticed it, it was already too late!
His eyes were wide open, and his body fell backward. He fell to the ground with a thud." You…What do you want to do?”
Chu Huanyi smiled sweetly. Crown Prince, you've always wanted me, right?”
For some reason, Xuanyuan Qi felt his throat go dry, and his entire body heated up.
However, his mind was still clear. He knew that something was wrong. He should not have reacted like this.
As he thought about it, Xuanyuan Qi felt a warm current quickly rush up from his lower abdomen and travel through his entire body, stimulating his rationality and thoughts." You…What did you do? What did you do to me?"
"I planted the seed of love in you, the love gu unique to the Phoenix Palace. If a man who was afflicted with this kind of love gu did not copulate with a woman, his meridians would burst and he would die. Crown Prince, you don't want to die now, right?”She said in a low voice as she slowly walked in front of Xuanyuan Qi and started to undress him.
Xuanyuan Qi's blood rushed to his head. He almost couldn't control himself from wanting to possess Chu Huanyi immediately.
He grabbed Chu Huanyi, but his rationality was still resisting." The root of love? You…you're so vicious…"
A faint smile appeared on Chu Huanyi's beautiful face. That smile was so beautiful and sweet, but within the sweetness, there was a hint of determination and despair." I'm vicious? No matter how vicious I am, I can't compare to you! Crown Prince, do you know why I'm called Yuetian? That was because I lived on the ninth day of the thirteen days of the Phoenix Palace. I had to endure the gentle aura of the moon all day long and developed a personality that was submissive to everything. That was why my brothers and sisters called me Yuetian. However, the moonlight is clear and can give a trace of light to the dark mortal world. Although I, Chu Huanyi, am a weak woman, I know how to use the little power I have to protect the man I love.”
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I just want the Crown Prince to know that the Emperor is so devoted to me. If he finds out that I am willing to return to your side, what will he think? What will he do when he opens the door and finds me rolling around with you? Should I kill you or me? Or should we kill them together?"
"You!" Xuanyuan Qi's body immediately turned cold, but the desire to keep on attacking his rationality made his entire body tremble and heat up. He was about to lose control.
Chu Huanyi continued," I love the Emperor. He is the only man I have ever loved in my life. Therefore, I am willing to lose my reputation and my innocence for him. I only wish for his safety and safety. I only wish for peace and safety in the South Qin Country!”
At this point, Xuanyuan Qi finally understood Chu Huanyi's thoughts. He tried his best to push Chu Huanyi away, not wanting to fall into Chu Huanyi's death trap.
But was it possible? His body no longer listened to his commands, and even his head was about to explode. The only thing he could think of was to possess her, to possess her. As long as he possessed this woman, all the pain and suffering would end.
Just as Xuanyuan Qi was being controlled by his lust and was desperately trying to free himself from Chu Huanyi, a figure suddenly broke through the window. A long sword pierced through Xuanyuan Qi's back from top to bottom. It pierced through his body and pierced Chu Huanyi's chest at the same time. Blood instantly filled the ground and the room was filled with a stench.
Xuanyuan Rui pulled out his sword and kicked away Xuanyuan Qi, who was already dead. He glared coldly at Chu Huanyi, who was naked and covered in blood.
Chu Huanyi panted heavily. With one hand on his chest, he struggled to sit up." Your…Your Majesty…"
Xuanyuan Rui looked at her coldly." What did you call me for? Your emperor is him, your husband is also him, why are you calling me?”
Chu Huanyi coughed and spat out large mouthfuls of blood." Emperor, listen to me. I…"
"I don't want to hear it! The truth is right in front of you. What else do you have to explain?”
She shook her head strenuously." No, it's not like that. It's…not what you think…"
"It's not what I think? The truth is right in front of you. What else do you have to explain?”
" No, it's really not like that. I can really explain…"
"Explain what? Explain that the corpses lying outside were not sent by you and the Crown Prince? Explain that you were forced to come here? Or do you want to explain that he forced you to roll around with him?”
"The Crown Prince didn't force me, I was willing…Wah!”Chu Huanyi spat out another mouthful of blood.
When he heard Chu Huanyi say that she was willing to do it, Xuanyuan Rui's anger that had never stopped reached its peak." You…you're cheap! I thought that you had suffered so much humiliation and grievances here that I had to mobilize a large number of troops from the capital to come here to save you. I didn't expect that what welcomed me was a trap that you had carefully set up? If Ruyan hadn't informed me earlier, I'm afraid I would have died in your hands! Huan 'er, do you love him so much that you're willing to sacrifice yourself like this?”
Hearing Chen Ruyan's name, Chu Huanyi quickly shook her head." No, Your Majesty, don't listen to her. She is…"
At this moment, Chen Ruyan's sweet voice rang out,""If you don't listen to me, do you think I'll listen to you?”
" You…" Chu Huanyi endured the pain in her chest and looked at the smug Chen Ruyan.
This Chen Ruyan was so scheming. Not only did she betray Xuanyuan Rui, but she even betrayed Xuanyuan Qi for him at the critical moment.
Why didn't she think of that? How could she only care about dealing with Xuanyuan Qi? She had forgotten that Chen Ruyan was also eyeing Xuanyuan Rui like a tiger eyeing its prey.
At the thought of this, Chu Huanyi struggled to crawl forward. Her blood-stained hands clung onto him." Your Majesty, listen to me. She is in cahoots with the Crown Prince. She and the Crown Prince have set up a trap for Your Majesty. You can't trust her. You can't listen to her…"
Xuanyuan Rui kicked Chu Huanyi away." If I don't listen to her, do I have to listen to you? If it weren't for Ruyan, I would be lying on the ground now, not your husband Xuanyuan Qi.”
Chu Huanyi did not give up and crawled back." Your Majesty, I'm telling the truth! She was the one who found those people lying in ambush outside. She was also the one who sent people to intercept me halfway and send me here. Emperor, you have to believe me, emperor…"
The furious Xuanyuan Rui kicked Chu Huanyi away once again. At the same time, he hugged Chen Ruyan's waist and said,""I believe what I see with my own eyes and what I hear with my own ears. As for the rest, go tell your husband!”
After saying that, Xuanyuan Rui snorted coldly and left the Vast Wind Mansion with Chen Ruyan, leaving Chu Huanyi lying alone in a pool of blood.
Chu Huanyi lay on the ground, panting in pain. Her mouth was wide open, and her chest was heaving up and down. As her chest rose and fell, the wound that had pierced deeply into her left lung continued to bleed, causing her to be covered in blood. She was almost covered in blood.
But she didn't care. She struggled to get up and put on her clothes. She had to go see Xuanyuan Rui. She had to tell him to be careful of Chen Ruyan. One day, she would set him up like how she set up Xuanyuan Qi and make him die without a burial place.
She loved him, and she didn't want him to repeat the same mistake again, so she had to warn him.
Her amazing perseverance and her unregretful love for Xuanyuan Rui made Chu Huanyi stumble up and put on her clothes. She then used her blood-stained hands to support herself against the wall and walked out step by step. She muttered,"Emperor, you can't trust her, she will harm you. Emperor, you can't trust her, you can't trust her…"
As Chu Huanyi spoke, her body fell forward uncontrollably. Before she lost consciousness, she heard a woman shout,""Emperor, quickly hug her, she can't take it anymore!”
The Emperor? Was he back? Chu Huanyi's consciousness was still blurry as she tried to open her eyes. She saw a man's face, a handsome face that she had met once before. She remembered Fourth Sister mentioning him before. His name was Ouyang Che, right?
When Chu Huanyi woke up, she was greeted by a beautiful face." You…You are…"
The woman smiled brightly. She helped Chu Huanyi up and fed her a bowl of black, thick, and bitter medicine." I'm Tantai Mingji, and he's Ouyang Che.”
Ouyang Che? Wasn't that the Emperor of the West Qin Country, the West Saint Ouyang Che of the Four Qilin Emperors? Why was he here? She heard from Fourth Sister that Ouyang Che married the daughter of the emperor of the Purple Cloud. Tantai Mingji should be his wife, right?
At the thought of this, Chu Huanyi struggled to get up. Tantai Mingji quickly held her down." Don't move. I spent a lot of effort to stop your bleeding. Your wound still can't close up. If you move around and touch the wound, even I won't be able to do anything about it.”
Chu Huanyi panted heavily." No…It's okay. I'm okay. I know my injuries very well.”
She looked up at Ouyang Che." Your Majesty, can I ask you for a favor?"”
Ouyang Che frowned and stepped forward.""What is it?"
"I want to see the emperor, can you take me to see the emperor?”
Ouyang Che was stunned." Your Majesty? You mean Xuanyuan Rui?"
"Yes, I want to see him. I want to tell him that he mustn't fall for Chen Ruyan's trick. Otherwise, he will end up like the Crown Prince, not even knowing how he died…Cough cough cough!”Chu Huanyi coughed repeatedly because of her excitement. However, blood gushed out from the wound on her chest again.
Tantai Mingji's expression changed. She quickly took out silver needles and pricked Chu Huanyi's major acupuncture points." Don't get agitated. If you get agitated, your wounds will bleed.”
Chu Huanyi shook his head." I'm fine. I just want to see the Emperor."”
She turned to Ouyang Che." Your Majesty, can you help me?" I know that you and the emperor are good friends. If you step forward, the emperor will definitely listen…"
Tantai Mingji interrupted her." Stop it! You're already injured like this, why do you care about that heartless man? He's currently in the capital for the coronation ceremony. How would he remember that you sacrificed your virginity and almost lost your life to save him?”
Chu Huanyi was stunned when he heard that. He couldn't catch his breath and fainted.
When Chu Huanyi opened her eyes again, she heard Ouyang Che's reproach towards Tantai Mingji." Mingji, why did you provoke her like this? You know that she can't take any stimulation now, but you still…"
"I just can't help it, I just can't stand it, I just want to say it!" Tantai Mingji said angrily. How could there be a man so stupid that he couldn't figure out the truth, but he actually conferred his father's concubine as the empress? This kind of man should just die!"
" Shut up!" Ouyang Che shouted." Do you want her injury to worsen?"”
But it was too late! Chu Huanyi had already heard every single word.
"What did you say?" she asked in a trembling voice. Who will the emperor appoint as the empress?"
Tantai Mingji stuck out her tongue." You heard that?”
"Please tell me, who will the emperor appoint as the empress? Was it…was it Chen Ruyan?”
Tantai Mingji didn't know whether to nod or shake her head. She could only stand there quietly without saying a word.
Seeing that she could not get an answer from Tantai Mingji, Chu Huanyi turned to Ouyang Che." Your Majesty, please tell me. Did the Emperor appoint Chen Ruyan as the Empress?”
Ouyang Che saw that he could not hide it any longer, so he nodded slightly." That's right. He has already announced to the world that he wants to make Chen Ruyan the Empress. The time is today."”
Tantai Mingji widened her eyes and stared at Chu Huanyi. She was afraid that Chu Huanyi, who was heavily injured, would faint again and tear his wound open.
However, she was wrong. Chu Huanyi did not faint, and she did not pull on her wound. She did not cry, laugh, or speak. She just lay there quietly, like a wooden doll whose life had been taken away in an instant. She lay there motionless.
After a long time, Chu Huanyi blinked and said to Ouyang Che,""Your Majesty, I know that you came here to track down the Jade Kylin, right?”
"That's right! Ming Ji and I chased all the way from Dongting Lake to Dunhuang, but when we reached Dunhuang, we only knew that the Phoenix Palace was in the Buddha Cave, but we couldn't enter it. Coincidentally, I heard that you agreed to the marriage of the South Qin Crown Prince and are preparing to marry into the South Qin Country, so I came to the South Qin Country, hoping to get the whereabouts of the Jade Kylin from you. " I didn't expect…I didn't expect you to…" Ouyang Che shook his head, as if he couldn't understand how such a delicate and weak woman could go from being the Crown Prince's concubine to Xuanyuan Rui's concubine. She even used such a suicidal method to save her lover.
What was even more unexpected was that Xuanyuan Rui actually believed it. He actually believed Chen Ruyan's words and abandoned Chu Huanyi like an old shoe. It was really too surprising.
"Your Majesty, how about we make a deal?”
Ouyang Che's eyes narrowed." Deal?”
"Yes! As long as you bring me to see the Emperor, I will let you go to the Phoenix Palace to see the Jade Kylin. This kind of deal is not a loss, right?”
Ouyang Che glared at Chu Huanyi." But your injuries…"
"I said it's fine. Besides, everyone knows that Tantai Mingji's medical skills are unparalleled. This small matter shouldn't be a problem for her.”
Ouyang Che looked at Tantai Mingji.
Tantai Mingji looked at Ouyang Che and then at Chu Huanyi. After a long while, she finally nodded." Brother Che, bring her there!" Because she's already pregnant. No matter what, you have to let her see the child's father. If she doesn't see the child's father, she won't be able to rest in peace even if she dies.”#
