An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Ji Yue didn't speak for a long time, Wei Lian's heart gradually sank.

I can't tell what it feels like, sad or disappointed, accompanied by the pain in my body, there is some inexplicable irony.

He is a little tired.

It seems that everything went around in circles and returned to the original point.

Ji Yue turned around, took the pill back to the bedside, and handed it to Wei Lian: "This is the antidote."

Wei Lian was so angry that he didn't want to talk, and he didn't want to eat.

Ji Yue explained without changing his face: "After taking this antidote for one year, the toxicity will be resolved automatically. There is no other medicine."

Wei Lian raised his head and stared at him without blinking.

"Really." Ji Yue said sincerely.

Wei Lian was suspicious: "Then how do you control those hidden guards...?"

"They don't know that every year, what Gu gives them is not an antidote, but a new poison. In this way, they can control it for another year, and the cycle repeats." Ji Yue lied on the spot, his face not red and his heart beating, "This is a secret, I will tell you. Don't tell it."

He said sorry in his heart.

He didn't want to get into trouble with Wei Lian because of this matter, so he could only cheat like this.

He actually thought it through.Wei Lian chooses to hide it from him now, maybe because he doesn't like him enough.

It doesn't matter, give him another year to cultivate more relationships, he believes that Wei Lian will not lie to him again then.

When the time comes, he will replace the real antidote without anyone noticing, completely detoxifying Wei Lian's poison.As long as Nadu is taken on time, there will be no side effects. If you can use this to buy yourself a year, why not do it?

The worst outcome... is that Wei Lian still kept it from him until then.

Ji Yue's eyes dimmed.

If so, he will probably be very sad.

But he will still give Wei Lian the real antidote.

If he can't touch a person's complete heart for a year, then he will let Wei Lian go free.Ji Yue didn't want to force her, nor did she want to imprison Wei Lian, it would be a pain to anyone.

But Ji Yue still had a little selfishness, and wanted enough time to fight for Wei Lian to open up and accept him completely.

One year, just one year.

Wei Lian: "..."

If this is the case, those hidden guards who were deceived into running around are really miserable.

Regarding Ji Yue's words, Wei Lian believed seven points and kept three points.

Seven points are out of love for Ji Yue, and three points are reserved for my vigilant instinct.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, Wei Lian would never believe it at all, and would check it out by himself.

It is undeniable that the original depression in my heart suddenly became much lighter, and it flew away lightly in Ji Yue's words.

All he wanted was this sentence.

It's not the antidote, but Ji Yue's honesty.

It's just that I still can't admit that the person who fought Ji Yue tonight is me.

The master once said that if you are not full of weak crowns, if you show your sharpness, you will appear desperate. Wei Lian has always kept this in mind.

Now it's less than two months before he reaches the crown age, two more months to endure, he won't need to put on such a show anymore.

Wei Lian cherishes his life.When I was alone, I tried my best to survive.But in this world, if there is someone who binds her beloved, she doesn't want to die even more.

I wouldn't take any chances with this.

The two have their own thoughts, but the expressions on their faces are seamless, and no one can see the flaws.

Wei Lian took the medicine without saying a word.

After Ji Yue figured it out, he stopped worrying about Wei Lian hiding something from him, and instead cared about Wei Lian's body.

He's in a terrible mood tonight.

The maid of Yan Kingdom cursed Wei Lian to death, and Ji Yue was able to pierce someone's heart with an arrow.After Huyan Kemu said something difficult, Ji Yue dared to send the entire delegation of Chen Guo's envoys to the cell.If someone really hurt Wei Lian, Ji Yue would definitely tear him to pieces.

But in the end, it was me.

Wei Lian was born weak and beautiful, his frail body leaned quietly on the couch, his delicate and pale face was bloodless, and his silent appearance made people feel distressed.

The bloodstains on Xuebai's neck were dazzling, and the collarbone was also scarred. Ji Yue didn't even dare to look at his bandaged arm.

Even if you know that he is not weak, but everyone will hurt.

Ji Yue couldn't help but asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Wei Lian: "..."

Nonsense, he didn't lose his sense of pain.

Ji Yue was very uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to show his self-blame. He looked more aggrieved than Wei Lian.

"The imperial doctor bandaged you just now, but you didn't even yell." Ji Yue pointed out sullenly.

Wei Lian once said that he was afraid of pain.

But in fact, he was really ruthless.

I can handle myself.

It's just that such a strong and forbearing Wei Lian made Ji Yue feel even more distressed.

Ji Yue still remembered that the first time he and Wei Lian had done that, Wei Lian was in severe pain, but he insisted on biting the back of his hand, refusing to make a sound even when he was bleeding from the bite.

He saw the two rows of extremely deep teeth marks on the back of the young man's snow-white hand, half annoyed, he pinched the man's wrist, ordering him not to bite.Wei Lian leaned down, scratched and wrinkled the bed sheet, the syllables were smashed to pieces, but he still refused to ask for mercy.

After the incident, Wei Lian's half-opened eyes were full of mist, and his body was trembling with pain, but he refused to shed a tear, showing a trace of stubbornness all the time.

At that time, Ji Yue knew that this young man who said he was afraid of pain was actually forbearing to the bottom of his bones.

But things on the couch became familiar after a few more visits.Later, Ji Yue put Wei Lian into sleep, especially the drunk Wei Xiaolian, who was so obedient and so soft.The hard bones in his daily body turned into a puddle of water, weeping unrestrainedly, begging for mercy, sloppy, hugging him unscrupulously, coquettishly screaming for pain, kicking him out of bed when he is angry, and giving him away when he is happy A kiss, a smile on the brow, and light in the eyes.

At least on the couch, Wei Lian had liberated his nature with Ji Yue.

In all fairness, Ji Yue likes Wei Lian like this.

It's not that I like his debauchery, but that he yells when he feels pain, cries when he is wronged, begs for mercy when he can't bear it, and never puts anything in his heart.

Ji Yue followed him.

Being strong is a good thing, being able to endure is also a quality.But he doesn't need it here.Wei Lian doesn't need to hold on to him or endure anything, those are things that those who have suffered need to learn.

Ji Yue wanted to give Wei Lian all the sweets in the world, such as bunny-shaped cakes, candied haws in Shangyuan Yeli, and that steaming bowl of sesame glutinous rice balls.

But he made him suffer anyway.

The pain lies in the sword he stabbed with himself.

So, how can it not be sad?

Wei Lian noticed that Ji Yue was depressed, and he only thought that he was sad because of his injury.

He said seriously: "I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak."

He spoke half-truths and half-truths.

Wei Lian doesn't like pain, but he can also bear it.

He can tease and act like a baby with Ji Yue for some insignificant things, or he can bear the unspeakable big things without saying a word.

This level is nothing.

Ji Yue thought to himself that you are lying to ghosts.

Apart from blaming himself and being sad about this, he was more angry.

Especially seeing the injuries on Wei Lian's neck and legs, he was even more angry.

Those two injuries were definitely made by Wei Lian himself.

So don't take your body seriously.

However, Ji Yue couldn't have an attack yet, so he could only sulk by himself.

"Let's talk about it." Wei Lian looked at his arm, "Aren't you acting like nothing happened?"

Ji Yue himself is a wounded person.

Wei Lian really wanted to lift up Ji Yue's sleeves to see what was going on with him, but firstly, he himself had limited mobility, secondly, he couldn't expose his medical skills and couldn't help much, and thirdly, Ji Yue had a lot of injuries. The imperial doctors circled around, nothing happened to him.

Still don't get involved.

Can run and jump, as long as you don't die.

Wei Lian felt a little resentful for being stabbed for no reason.

"I've been through hundreds of battles alone, and I've suffered countless injuries. Can I be the same as you?" Ji Yue said angrily.

Even if Wei Lian made a breach, he would feel like facing a formidable enemy.

Wei Lian said politely: "Then please return to the palace to rest earlier, Your Majesty is going to sleep."

Ji Yue: "Are you in such a hurry to drive Gu back?"

Wei Lian was surprised: "Otherwise you still want to stay?"

He sighed softly, very mournful: "My minister is ill and cannot serve His Majesty anymore. I have been injured for a hundred days, and I will not be able to serve Your Majesty in the next hundred days." He tried his best to hide the uncontrollable excitement in his tone , "You'd better go back."

He suddenly remembered.He was injured, and Ji Yue was also injured, so they can abstain from sex!

There is such a good thing in the world!

Although it was Wei Lian who lured him into bed at the beginning, but later on Ji Yue learned the truth and tossed hard, Wei Lian was also very annoyed.

It was rare to be able to rest openly, and Wei Lian was very happy.

He restrained the corners of his mouth from rising, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty will also recover soon."

Ji Yue looked at Wei Lian, who was a showman, and was speechless.

Don't think that Gu can't tell that you are happy.

Ji Yue laughed angrily.

He turned around: "I'm gone alone."

Wei Lian sent off respectfully: "Your Majesty, go slowly."

Ji Yue couldn't help turning her head back: "Gu really left."

Wei Lian nodded: "Go slowly."

When Ji Yue walked to the door, he couldn't help turning his head again: "Gu..."

Wei Lian was expressionless: "Go faster."

"..." Ji Yue said, "Then sleep well, don't press on the wound, remember to change the dressing on time, don't go to the ground these few days, you don't need to worry about the things in the palace..."

He told them one after another, more worried than the old nuns in the palace.

Wei Lian buried himself in the quilt and ignored him.

Ji Yue looked at him quietly for a long time, pushed the door open and walked out.

The night outside is as cold as water, and the cold wind is blowing.

Ji Yue's heart is heavy.

No matter how much you gag, you can't escape the erosion of self-blame.

He couldn't see it.Wei Lian appeared to be fine, his face was as white as paper, and he hid his seriously injured left arm under the quilt to prevent him from seeing it.

It must hurt.

Ji Yue didn't dare to turn red in front of others, Wei Lian didn't cry yet, he cried first, it was too embarrassing.

He floated back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation like a wandering soul, and the first sentence he said when he entered the door was: "Bring the wine."

Li Fuquan was taken aback: "It's so late...?"

What time is it now, if you don't sleep well and recuperate, what kind of wine should you drink?

"Go as soon as I tell you, stop talking nonsense." Ji Yue whispered, "I just want to drink away my worries."

Li Fuquan: "... promise."

……

Toast Mingyue, and Yingying became three people.

Li Fuquan looked at Ji Yue who was almost drunk under the moon in front of the window, with an anxious expression on his face: "Your Majesty, stop drinking."

It's fine if you just drink, but His Majesty is obviously hiding something in his heart, so he doesn't talk about it.

Ji Yue shook his wine glass, his phoenix eyes sparkled, and he was half drunk: "Li Fuquan, if someone in this world deceives Gu, what should Gu do?"

Is there any need to answer this?Li Fuquan said decisively: "The crime of deceiving the emperor should be punished."

"No!" Ji Yue immediately vetoed, "I can't bear it."

Li Fuquan was shocked.

The only one who can make His Majesty reluctant... is that one.

Li Fuquan patted his mouth lightly, annoyed that he was talking too much.

Could it be that His Majesty and Young Master Wei had a conflict?

"Gu also lied to him... the medicine that Gu lied to him... it will take a year to get rid of it." Ji Yue suddenly laughed lowly, and lay down on the table with his eyes closed, "Gu wants him to stay. Gu is afraid that he will leave Yes. Gu hurt him today, will he be angry..."

Li Fuquan couldn't understand at first.

What is this all about?

But he could see that His Majesty was very sad.

His Majesty had a deep relationship with his mother concubine Yunji when he was young. The day before, he had made an appointment with Yunji to play in the snow tomorrow, and he saw Yunji being pushed into the well that night.

Later, His Majesty raised a rabbit and took good care of it so that it could be fed well.The unfamiliar rabbit ran to the embrace of the Queen Mother, and was served on the table by His Majesty that night.

Later, His Majesty liked an eagle, and the eagle was used by the Queen Mother as a threat, and was finally shot to death by His Majesty himself.

Your Majesty has few favorites.As long as there is one, he will always leave him in the end, and he will not die well, so he will never dare to have the beloved again.

If he has a sweetheart, he must be careful and cautious, for fear that that person will leave him like those people and things in the past.

He was so cautious that he didn't even dare to ask a question.

Li Fuquan guessed that His Majesty should be irritated by Young Master Wei's injury today.There are many crises around His Majesty, and those close to His Majesty are always in danger.Your Majesty must be afraid that Young Master Wei will be like Queen Mother Yun, that eagle, and that rabbit, and leave him for various reasons.

His worries and fears today are all because of the pain of the past.

Li Fuquan persuaded carefully: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wei will not be angry with you."

"He must be angry." Ji Yue said gloomily, "He doesn't care about Gu."

"Young Master Wei is hard-spoken and soft-hearted." Ever since His Majesty took charge of his own affairs, Li Fuquan had rarely seen Ji Yue look so fragile. He was so anxious that he suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, Your Majesty knows about your old days. Suffering from insomnia, I specially ordered my servant to adjust the incense in your palace to the secret recipe of Chu Guoan, so that you can sleep peacefully even when he is not by your side."

"That five-clawed golden dragon auspicious cloud robe is your favorite dress. A hole was accidentally washed by the palace guards from the Huanyi Bureau, and the young master sewed it up with a needle and thread."

"And you go to see the son every day, and the son doesn't seem to care about you. But when you are not there, the son will ask about your whereabouts several times a day. If he knows that you are discussing with the minister, he will never bother, just sigh There is no fun in the Palace of Sound. If you have nothing else to do, the young master will get up and look for you, saying that it is only fun to be with you."

"...These things, the young master only said that they were insignificant, and never let the slave talk about them."

There are some things that even he can't do so carefully.

"The young master is from Chu, and I did have some prejudices against the young master at the beginning. It was in this day-to-day slump that I gradually changed my view." Li Fuquan sighed, "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry."

In this world, no one loves you more than Wei Lian.
