Chapter 42 A Well-Matched Contest
Ji Weiyu was silent for a moment and nodded slowly: "Your Highness is right. The reason why the Queen Mother has such power is ultimately due to the cowardice and incompetence of the Chu royal family."
As long as the king is courageous, heroic and wise, he will definitely not tolerate a harem woman being so arrogant.
Yan Qing raised her eyes to look at him, with a clear look in her eyes: "She wants to kill you because you don't want to let her get what she wants?"
"Yes." Ji Weiyu nodded, "The Queen Mother asked me to tell her fortune before and asked me about her fortune. Actually, she wanted to tell the world through my mouth that she is the queen chosen by God and the true emperor."
After a pause, "I didn't agree, and since then she has had murderous intentions towards me."
The subjects of Chu State respected the Son of God, and only words spoken from the mouth of the Son of God could be recognized by the emperor and his ministers to the greatest extent——
The Queen Mother's own ambitions and power are not small. If she wants to ascend the throne, the biggest obstacle is that she is not "inherited by destiny." Therefore, as soon as the Son of God opens his mouth, even if there are still objections from the royal family, the Queen Mother will at least have a legitimate excuse.
But Ji Weiyu just didn't do what she wanted.
The corner of Yan Qing's mouth raised slightly, and a cold smile appeared in her eyes: "The Queen Mother of Chu and this princess are very compatible with me. They are both outliers among the royal women. Calculated in this way, I should not be too big to deal with them. Bully the small, use the strong to bully the weak.”
"It doesn't count." Ji Weiyu said calmly, "This is a close contest. If they lose, it means their skills are inferior to others."
To say they are evenly matched is not accurate.
After all, Yan Qing came to Chu State alone, but the Queen Mother had the power to dominate the government and the public. With so many party members and minions at her disposal, she had an absolute advantage.
It's just that they didn't know Yan Qing's abilities beforehand, so they easily underestimated the enemy.
"Okay." Yan Qing curled her lips lazily, "For the sake of the appetite of the queen mothers and princesses of Chu State, I will stay here to support you."
Ji Weiyu's eyes lit up: "Your Highness, are you serious?"
"Seriously." Yan Qing picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, "But I can't work in vain."
"Your Highness, please speak." Ji Weiyu said hurriedly, "As long as it is your Highness's request, I will go through fire and water, even to the death."
"There is no need for you to go through fire and water." Yan Qing said, "To win the throne of Chu State, you can be there whenever I need you in the future."
"What's the problem with this?" Ji Weiyu agreed without hesitation, while not forgetting to express his dissatisfaction, "Does His Highness not trust me? Even if Your Highness doesn't stay, I will be there at your call."
Yan Qing's voice became more and more casual: "Don't you think being an emperor is boring?"
"How could it be boring?" Ji Weiyu frowned, "Sitting on the throne, with wealth and glory and the power of life and death in one's hands, how could it be boring?"
How many people are staring at that dragon chair, isn't it because they can do whatever they want after taking power?
"Although I didn't want to fight for the throne before, I changed my mind after they bullied me." Ji Weiyu said with a smile, "Besides, with His Highness helping me, wouldn't I be stupid if I didn't want to be the one above ten thousand people?"
Although the emperor sometimes cannot help himself, it is better than living in the shadow of swords and swords every day. At least relatively speaking, the emperor can decide the life and death of others instead of letting others control his own life and death.
A sound of footsteps came from outside.
Yan Qing casually picked up the curtain hat placed aside and put it on her head, stood up and prepared to welcome the guests, while Ji Weiyu quickly returned to the bed and lay down.
"Ji Weiyu!" A beautiful woman burst in, arrogant and domineering, and she looked like a master who was not easy to mess with. "Why are all the maids and guards of this palace kept outside?"
Ji Weiyu leaned on the bedside, coughing painfully, unable to speak at all.
"Prince Feng is unwell and it is not appropriate to make noise in the palace, so I can only aggrieve the eldest princess." Yan Qing looked at the woman in front of him through the veil.
It only takes one glance to confirm it, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
"Are you a female doctor who is good at detoxifying?" Ji Mingzhu stared at Yan Qing, but only saw the gauze hanging under the curtain, "Are you shady?"
Yan Qing said indifferently: "I really don't want to see anyone."
"I order you to take off your hat."
Yan Qing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her face hidden behind the gauze was cold and mocking: "Are you sure?"
"Not only am I sure, but I also want you to kneel down and pay homage to me." Ji Mingzhu looked at her coldly, "How brave you are to talk to me like this!"
Yan Qing raised her delicate white hands and slowly took the curtain hat. The gauze on the hat fluttered in the wind, and a faint fragrance floated in the air.
Ji Mingzhu's eyes narrowed, staring at Yan Qing's breathtakingly beautiful face, a trace of jealousy flashed across her eyes quickly, "Here comes -"
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a sudden sharp pain in his heart, as if hundreds of insects were biting his internal organs at the same time. Ji Mingzhu turned pale and suddenly grabbed the clothes around her heart, "Ah!"
Yan Qing raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong with the eldest princess?"
"You..." Ji Mingzhu pointed at her and wanted to say something, but was too painful to say a word, "Ugh!"
The high and mighty Princess seemed unable to bear the pain. Her body bent down a little, and she huddled on the ground clutching her heart. Her face turned pale, and her body began to convulse and tremble. She was no longer as arrogant as she was a moment ago.
"Ah..." Her internal organs were bitten, and the lingering pain drove her crazy. She squeezed out gnashing words from between her teeth, "You... you bastard! Damn it... I won't let you go... ...ah!”
"I asked you just now." Yan Qing put down her curtain and walked to the side lazily and sat down. "This is your own choice, enjoy it."
"Ah!" Ji Mingzhu curled up on the ground, her face pale in pain, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead, "You...who are you? I...I want to cut you into pieces..."
"Stay tough." Yan Qing raised her hands and sleeves and poured herself a cup of tea gracefully. "Princess, you can taste the bite of ten thousand ants. You will definitely be more enchanted than those beautiful boys."
Who are you?
Ji Mingzhu was so furious that she wanted to cut the woman in front of her into pieces, tear her into pieces, cut off her flesh and feed it to the wolves!
However, she was in so much pain that she couldn't say a word. She stretched out her trembling hands to grab the table legs, trying hard to stand up, but the pain in her body was overwhelming, and she could only curl up in pain: "Ah!"
Ji Weiyu watched coldly, then suddenly turned to look at Yan Qing: "I finally understand why Your Highness dares to come to Chu alone. With this poisonous skill, no one can be your opponent."
Ji Mingzhu is such an arrogant and domineering person.
Relying on the favor of the Queen Mother and her younger brother being the Crown Prince, no one in the Chu Kingdom dared to offend this eldest princess. She wanted wind and rain and she had her sights on some man, and she wanted to get him by force. .
When the novelty is gone and you are in a good mood, you can let him go. If you are in a bad mood, you may kill him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is angry.
What the people of Chu State remember most clearly is that on the day of the eldest princess's eighteenth birthday, she locked a man who resisted her into a large iron cage. There were two ferocious wolves in the iron cage. They watched the man with their own eyes. Amidst the screams, he was torn to pieces and devoured by wolves, and several teenagers in the house were forced to watch.
From then on, no one in the Princess Mansion dared to resist her.
If the ministers of the Chu State were to see the cruel and cruel eldest princess in the past, huddled on the ground in such an embarrassing state, suffering from severe pain, I'm afraid there would be many people applauding her.
After Yan Qing drank a cup of tea, Ji Mingzhu's pain eased slightly.
The air in the hall was quiet and depressing.
Ji Mingzhu clutched the legs of the table tightly, her forehead hair was messy, her face was pale and colorless, it took a while before she stood up holding on to the table.
Closing her eyes gently, she slowly raised her eyes to look at Yan Qing, her eyes filled with biting and cold murderous intent: "I will definitely let you die miserably. I will lock you in a cage and let you starve." Three days of wolves tearing you apart bit by bit - ah!"
Before she finished speaking, severe pain suddenly hit her. She fell to the ground with a thud and curled up again: "Ah!"
