Chapter 68 Shameless, ruined by the emperor for a lifetime
Chapter 68 Shameless, ruined by the emperor for the rest of his life
As soon as Xiao Jiuan returned to Beijing, the emperor issued an order announcing his entry into the palace. Everyone thought that Xiao Jiuan's act was more dangerous than bad, but...
An hour later, Xiao Jiuan not only left the palace safely, but also received a large number of rewards. It seemed that Xiao Jiuan was not only not reprimanded by the emperor, but also praised by the emperor.
"It's amazing!"
"I don't understand, I don't understand, why would the emperor reward King Yanbei?"
…
Not only the people outside, but even Xiao Shaorong couldn't understand. As soon as Xiao Jiuan came back, he circled around Xiao Jiuan and kept muttering: "Impossible!"
"can't read!"
"Did the emperor fall into trouble? How could he reward you?"
"You came back from a victorious battle and didn't see the emperor reward you. How come you disobeyed the order and went out of the capital privately, and still got the emperor's reward?"
…
Xiao Jiu'an was annoyed by his thoughts and said with a cold face: "Xiao Shaorong, that's enough...it's time to get out!" What would it be like for the young master of the Xiao family to stay in his palace without anything to do?
"Before you leave, please tell me why the emperor rewarded you." The cold Yanbei Palace has no popularity at all, so he really thinks he is willing to stay.
"The emperor rewarded Ji Yunkai." Xiao Shaorong is not an outsider, so there is no need to hide it.
"What? Give it to Ji Yunkai? What does the emperor mean by this?" Xiao Shaorong is worthy of being the young master of the Xiao family. He understood the emperor's intention in just one sentence.
"It's just as you thought." Xiao Jiuan said mockingly, with a flash of disdain in his eyes.
It's not that he looks down on the emperor, but that the emperor is too arrogant. In the emperor's eyes, everyone except himself may be a fool.
"Your Majesty... you are really shameless. Ji Yunkai saved his life." Xiao Shaorong couldn't help but feel chilled when he mentioned this.
At that time, the emperor was poisoned by a strange poison, and the imperial doctors were helpless. At that time, all the ministers were considering establishing a new emperor, and even the emperor himself was preparing to arrange his posthumous affairs.
At this time, Ji Yunkai stood up and bet her life, saying that if she could not cure the emperor's poison, she would die with him.
In order to prepare the antidote, Ji Yunkai poisoned himself with the same poison and tested the medicine on his own body. In order to find the antidote, Ji Yunkai drank no less than a hundred doses of the medicine, ruining his peerless appearance.
Ji Yunkai saved his life in exchange for the emperor's life, but the emperor was not grateful. Afterwards, he actually terminated his engagement with Ji Yunkai on the grounds that Ji Yunkai was ugly and had no motherly appearance.
At that time, many people were already disappointed, but most people could understand that Tianqi could not have an ugly queen after all. It would not matter if she broke off the engagement, as long as Ji Yunkai was given enough rewards afterwards and she was allowed to live a stable and prosperous life.
Okay, but what did the emperor do?
Not only did the emperor not give Ji Yun a reward, he instead gave her to Xiao Jiu'an, the king of Yanbei who hated her.
At that time, Jiu'an was also poisoned, which was 70% similar to the poison poisoned by the emperor, but more dangerous than the emperor. When Xiao Shiqing saw that the emperor's poison was cured, he wanted to ask Ji Yunkai to prepare another antidote, or ask him to
Ji Yunkai took out the formula of the antidote so that the doctor could study it.
Ji Yunkai did not refuse, but she argued that the medicine had been used up and there was only one antidote. She could not prepare a second antidote. As for the prescription?
Ji Yunkai did write a prescription, but without a prescription, the prescription was of no use at all.
Under such circumstances, what would the people in Yanbei Palace think of Ji Yunkai?
Under such circumstances, no matter what the truth is, the people in Yanbei Palace will only think that Ji Yunkai refused to give out the antidote to save Xiao Jiuan, and even the prescription she gave out was fake.
Ji Yunkai was naive and ignorant, thinking that she was telling the truth, that she had done her best, and that the people in the Yanbei Palace would not bear grudges against her, but would the emperor not know what the people in the Yanbei Palace thought?
But when the Prince of Yanbei was extremely dissatisfied with Ji Yunkai, the emperor actually granted marriage to Ji Yunkai on the grounds of his deep love for Xiao Jiuan. Jane really wanted to trick Ji Yunkai to death.
Fortunately, the only people who knew about this matter were a few masters of the Yanbei Palace. If everyone in the Yanbei Army knew about this, Ji Yunkai would not be able to gain a foothold in the Yanbei Palace.
The emperor is so cruel to his savior, how can he be kind to others? How can such an emperor be worth their efforts?
Originally, the Xiao family did not approve of Xiao Shaorong being so close to Xiao Jiu'an, but because of this matter, the Xiao family acquiesced to Xiao Shaorong's behavior.
The Xiao family will be loyal to the emperor and the country, and will not rebel, but they dare not put all their wealth and lives on the emperor. They are afraid that they will be broken into pieces and fight for the emperor, and what they will get in exchange is not a knife from their opponent, but a knife from the emperor's back.
I thought that the emperor's cruelty would end here, but he didn't expect that Ji Yunkai got married as he wished, but the emperor still refused to let her go. It was really...
"Ji Yunkai is really blind, and his whole life has been ruined." Xiao Shaorong couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Ji Yunkai's experience.
A good and noble daughter, the granddaughter of the Yun family, a wealthy family in the south, ended up in such a situation. It was indeed the right time and fate.
"You care about her very much?" Xiao Jiu'an noticed Xiao Shaorong's unusual concern for Ji Yunkai.
Xiao Shaorong did not deny it, and readily admitted: "She is miserable. I am very concerned about miserable people and things." It's like seeing a poor person on the road, he can't help but take a second look, and he can't help but feel sad.
Sympathy is the same.
But it was just a look and sympathy, and it was impossible for him to help Ji Yunkai.
"There are many people in the world who are worse off than her, but they have the energy to care about these useless things and deal with the rebellion in the army." Xiao Jiu'an once again issued an order to expel the guest unceremoniously.
"I have locked up the rest of them, and they will be dealt with according to military law. Marquis Guangping is your uncle, so it is inconvenient for me to interfere." Xiao Shaorong always said something in front of Xiao Jiu'an, and never showed up.
"Yeah." Xiao Jiu'an responded and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Xiao Shaorong had to stand up wisely: "Okay, okay, I..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the steward who hurried in: "Your Majesty, the princess is not well!"
Xiao Shaorong paused and asked, "What's wrong? Are you going to die?"
The steward did not answer immediately, but glanced at Xiao Jiu'an. When Xiao Jiu'an nodded, the steward said: "The princess's poison has taken effect again. Doctor Zhuge said that she can't suppress it, and I'm afraid there is no way to save her!"
The good daughter of the Ji family died on the third day after marrying into the Yanbei Palace. Even if the Ji family did not dare to argue with the Yanbei Palace, the emperor would not let the Yanbei Palace go.
The person died in the Yanbei Palace, and the Yanbei Palace was in the wrong. When the time comes, the emperor will cause trouble to the Yanbei Palace under the pretext of seeking justice for his savior. No matter how powerful the Yanbei Palace is, the emperor will have to scratch off a layer of his skin.
Xiao Jiuan saw the emperor's shamelessness today and knew very well that the emperor could definitely do such a thing. Therefore, even if he no longer cared about Ji Yunkai's life or death, he did not want anyone to die in Yanbei Palace at this time.
Xiao Jiuan pondered for a moment and said, "Go and ask someone to find Feng Qi."
He believed that Feng Qi would definitely save Ji Yunkai. As for whether Feng Qi's injuries would worsen as a result, that had nothing to do with him... (To be continued)
