After being read, the abstinent prince bullies others with his wife every day

Chapter 306 Resentment

Under the moonlight, the handsome man in black slowly walked over to the girl and stood beside her.

He half embraced her, such a suitable position, from his eyes to his smile, he completely enveloped her just right.

He glanced indifferently, his eyes swept around, and every glance was like a scent of kings.

Such graceful, brilliant and unrivaled eyes.

And the girl who had originally set her eyes on him turned her head to meet his gaze the moment he looked at her. After listening to what the man said, she immediately smiled, her eyes shining brightly, as if this winter night had instantly turned into the most beautiful spring, with flowers blooming everywhere, so dazzling.

He pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled with difficulty. Very good, this is good.

Seeing her safe and happy is better than anything else.

Gu Wen suppressed the thousands of thoughts that were surging in his heart, and bowed to Jiang Hong and Pei Yan, saying: "The carriage is ready, please get in, Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."

He met Jiang Hong's gaze and was slightly stunned.

It was because she didn't see any emotion in his eyes, they were calm, or even empty like stagnant water.

It was Pei Yan who spoke up and said softly, "Thank you, Master Gu."

Then he supported Jiang Hong and got into the carriage with him.

Jiang Che walked up to Gu Wen and patted him on the shoulder: "Thanks to Lord Gu for rushing here with the imperial edict today, the King will definitely come to thank you tomorrow."

Gu Wen said: "This is what I should do. Your Highness Prince Rong must not do this."

Jiang Che said solemnly, "That won't work. Sixth brother didn't tell me the first half of this drama. If he told me, I would act unnatural. He didn't even let me know that he had already informed Chen Zhao who stayed in Beijing and asked you to go to the palace in advance to ask father for this imperial edict. I was frightened for nothing just now."

"Now that the show is over, you play such an important role in Sixth Brother's plan. As his seventh brother, I naturally have to thank you on his behalf. Otherwise, I would not feel involved at all. Therefore, I have to come to your house to express my gratitude."

"..."

Gu Wen pursed his lips and said, "Then I will stay here first. Thank you, His Royal Highness Prince Rong."

……

There was silence in the palace.

As soon as Yun Shuning returned to the capital, she was invited by Concubine Xi to the palace to examine Emperor Jingsheng.

Fortunately, Yun Zhong was not in the capital, otherwise he would have been summoned to the palace overnight to have an argument with Emperor Jingsheng after learning that his precious daughter had just experienced such a thrilling situation.

The boiled medicine soup glowed faintly under the palace lanterns. Yun Shuning stirred it gently with a spoon to ensure that the temperature was right.

Then she slowly walked into Emperor Jingsheng's bedroom holding the bowl of medicine and handed it to Eunuch Li.

"Thank you, Miss Yun," Eunuch Li took the medicine bowl, his face full of sorrow, "The emperor's illness is severe, and the imperial doctors have prescribed many medicines, but none of them have any effect. I have no choice but to trouble Miss Yun to do it herself."

Yun Shuning smiled slightly: "What are you talking about, Eunuch Li? It is my honor to be able to help the emperor solve his problems."

Eunuch Li looked at her approvingly and said, "Then we will go in and help the emperor drink his medicine."

Yun Shuning nodded and watched him step into the inner hall. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Hong, who was being escorted in with a gloomy face.

At this moment, his face finally showed emotion again, his eyes were as dark and deep as a thousand-foot abyss, and all the forbearance before seemed to be planning and paving the way for this moment.

Their eyes met, Yun Shuning moved aside to make way for him: "Your Highness, please."

The night is still young.

The stars flickered in the moonlight, just like the dim lights behind the heavy curtains in Emperor Jingsheng's bedroom at this moment.

The hall was very quiet, with only the sound of the patient's heavy breathing being heard.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is here, please take it." Eunuch Li said softly and brought the medicine bowl to Emperor Jingsheng.

Emperor Jingsheng lay on the bed, his eyes deep: "Is this Yun girl's recipe?"

"Exactly."

Eunuch Li smiled and said, "Miss Yun just told me that this medicine will not be effective if it gets cold. Your Majesty should take it while it's still hot."

Emperor Jingsheng didn't hesitate any longer and drank it all in one gulp.

As the medicine took his mouth, he felt a cool feeling sliding down his throat and slowly seeping into his whole body, as if every tense nerve was relaxing under the effect of the medicine.

The heaviness in his body disappeared instantly, and his spirit, which had been exhausted for several days, was also lifted. Emperor Jingsheng murmured to himself: "As expected of Miss Yun, just one prescription has such a miraculous effect."

He closed his eyes and let out a breath, his mind feeling the long-lost peace at this moment.

However, this silence did not last long, as a sound was heard outside the door.

Eunuch Li, who had gone to check, returned with an unpleasant expression on his face, and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here. Do you want me to ask His Majesty to change the time..."

"No need, let him in." Emperor Jingsheng pressed his eyebrows and waved his hand.

"Yes." Although Eunuch Li looked worried, he could not disobey the emperor's order, so he still did as he was told.

After a while, Jiang Hong slowly walked into the inner hall with a stern expression, and knelt woodenly in front of Emperor Jingsheng.

"Your Highness has greeted me, Father. Long live the Father. Long live the Father. Long live the Father."

Emperor Jingsheng snorted and laughed. It was good enough that he was not so angry that he was physically and mentally broken. Long live the emperor.

He looked at Jiang Hong who was bowing his head in front of him and said, "Prince, do you admit your guilt?"

Jiang Hong raised his eyes to meet his gaze, without any attempt to hide or defend himself, and said bluntly: "I know my crime."

"Where the sin lies, there is the fault."

"I secretly raised soldiers and mined and forged weapons. Everything was done by me..."

"Snapped--"

The medicine bowl whizzed past Jiang Hong's eyes and made a sharp shattering sound behind him.

Then there was another "pop" sound.

A golden tray hit Jiang Hong on the forehead, then fell from his body to the ground, spinning like a top for several times before finally stopping.

Jiang Hong did not dodge at all from beginning to end, allowing Emperor Jingsheng to vent his anger. His forehead felt as if it was burning, and a hot stream gushed out.

Emperor Jingsheng was panting like a cow, and the few words he spoke seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Why? Why did you do this?!"

"why?"

Jiang Hong smiled: "Father, you really don't understand? Over the years, you have been very biased towards Prince Rui, don't you know? If everyone hadn't said that the position of Crown Prince would belong to Prince Rui sooner or later, how could I have such thoughts? Father asked me if I knew my faults, and today I want to ask you, do you also know your faults?!"

Jiang Hong looked at him with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of silent resentment.

Emperor Jingsheng was stunned.

Before Jiang Hong said this, he never realized that there was anything wrong with his behavior.

Just because the only love of his life was Concubine Xi, he unconsciously poured his love into Jiang Yu alone.

Now, someone's voice was tearing open in front of him, and he realized that his behavior made others feel neglected and ignored, even if that was not his intention.

Emperor Jingsheng held his forehead with his hand, but he was speechless and had no way to defend himself.

He just murmured to himself: "For so many years, you have such a deep hatred towards me..."

He seemed to have suddenly become much older and more haggard, with bloodshot eyes.

Jiang Hong laughed and said, "I was just joking, father, please don't take it seriously. You are the emperor, how could you be wrong?"

He smiled, but his eyes were red: "But I still have to say, I hate you, I hate your partiality, I hate you for ignoring me, obviously I am the prince! But now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say anymore."

He looked at Emperor Jingsheng, his back straight, "I have committed a serious crime by plotting rebellion. I beg Your Majesty to punish me severely."
