Chapter 516: The Vase of Cannon Fodder in the Machiavellian Story (29)
After saying a few words of comfort and leaving a lot of rewards, Chu Yunxuan returned to the study.
He had no intention of thinking about other things now. The old thief Taishi could actually be used by Chu Yunci, and the two of them even joined forces to deal with him.
Now His Majesty trusts Taishi and is very concerned about what he says. If he continues to take action at this juncture, he will really miss the throne.
Looking at the methods his counselors gave him, each one was more outrageous than the last. Chu Yunxuan looked upset and tore them all apart.
At this time, the study door was pushed open, strictly speaking, it was knocked open, followed by the sound of rapid and messy footsteps.
Chu Yunxuan could guess who the person was, so before the guard could speak, he waved directly at him.
"The rest of you get out."
He and Zhao Ziyan were the only ones left in the room.
Because he was busy with matters in the court, he had not seen her for half a month, which was not more or less time, but when he saw Zhao Ziyan again, Chu Yunxuan still had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
The person standing in front of me was not a young girl, but a walking mummy.
Even those thin clothes looked empty on her body. Her skinny and formless body was matched with a face that was also unable to show any flesh. Two dark and hollow eyes looked at him, so shocked that Chu Yunxuan was speechless for a while.
Zhao Ziyan thought that the man in front of her was too guilty to speak.
So she bit her lip stubbornly, trembling as she approached, her voice low and desperate.
"Chu Yunxuan, is this how you treat me?"
Chu Yunxuan calmed down and then frowned.
"How did you become like this?"
"Is this the first thing you want to say to me?! Chu Yunxuan!! Are you worthy of me for doing this!!"
She spent the most difficult time with him in the cold palace. In the end, when he became famous again, she completely forgot about her original promise.
Zhao Ziyan's look coupled with her angry and crazy expression directly made Chu Yunxuan's remaining guilt disappear.
He is a man, why can't he find a woman and leave an heir? !
And he is not an ordinary man, he is a prince! He is the man who will rule the world in the future!
Chu Yunxuan didn't understand that he had given all his love to her. Why was this woman in front of him dissatisfied? She actually asked him in turn, acting as if it was natural.
A surge of anger arose spontaneously.
"I have come this far for you, why can't I feel sorry for you? Who in the house has better food and clothing than you?
I will satisfy all your requests. You like the cook Jiang Lai brought, so I paid a lot of money to let her serve you exclusively.
If you like flowers, plants and trees, I will search all over the world to plant a garden full of green for you.
Go and see if there is any woman in the world who has a better life than you? You are not satisfied yet, so greedy! ! ”
Zhao Ziyan stared at Chu Yunxuan with her eyes wide open and her mouth open, like a fish out of water.
She didn't expect such words to come out of his mouth.
She thought she was traveling through time just to meet him.
She thought that one day she would become the master of the world with him and enjoy all the prosperity in the world.
Just when she thought everything was developing in the direction she expected most, suddenly, the man in front of her changed.
Chu Yunxuan was also furious.
He was in the quagmire and could hardly stand out, and now he had to waste time dealing with her.
But seeing her expression, Chu Yunxuan only felt irritated and impatient.
So he yelled again in anger.
"If you can't give birth to a child, why don't you allow others to give birth to me?"
This sentence completely made Zhao Ziyan despair.
"Chu Yunxuan, you are really the most selfish person in the world! I misjudged you before!"
Chu Yunxuan couldn't help laughing.
"Am I selfish?
Whose idea was it to marry Jiang Lai in the first place?
Whose idea was it to use Jiang Lai's dowry?
Whose idea was it to have these women fighting among themselves in the backyard?
Who has been hiding behind Jiang Lai, enjoying the treatment of a royal concubine but throwing all the mess to Jiang Lai?
Who was the person who finally came up with the idea to send Jiang Lai to Chu Yunci's bed? !
Zhao Ziyan, do you really think I can't see anything?
You want to be a queen, but you don’t want to pay any price. Do you really think pie will fall in the sky? ”
Word by word, all Zhao Ziyan's masks were peeled off without mercy.
At this moment, Chu Yunxuan was too lazy to pretend anymore.
Zhao Ziyan, on the other hand, retreated continuously, with a ridiculously complex expression on his face, including shock, anger, sadness, and fear.
It was the first time she saw Chu Yunxuan like this, and it was also the first time she felt the powerlessness and despair of living in ancient times.
Finally, Chu Yunxuan shouted.
"Someone! Take her down."
The two guards grabbed Zhao Ziyan one by one and forced her out.
Finally arriving at the door, Zhao Ziyan seemed to wake up suddenly, staring at Chu Yunxuan with red eyes and a very hateful look, and shouted hoarsely.
"I'll make you regret it!"
But Chu Yunxuan didn't even want to look at her.
In the final analysis, it was all my fault that I was too spoiled to her.
The best way now is to let her calm down. When she figures everything out, she will know how important this child is to him.
——
As the days went by, Jiang Lai paid no attention to the things going on in the court. She could only tell how the battle for the throne was going by looking at her father's expression every day.
Chu Yunxuan was no match for Chu Yunci.
Therefore, Taishi came back from court every day with a relaxed smile on his face.
Now it seems that the second task has almost been completed. At present, the eldest emperor in the court, Chu Yunci, is the second eldest, and Taishi can be ranked in the top five. He can be regarded as an extremely human minister.
The task was completed. Jiang Lai's daily life consisted of eating, sleeping and walking. When he was really bored, he would go out for sightseeing, and when he was tired, he would come back and lie down.
Until one day, when Jiang Lai packed his parcel and was about to set off again, the carriage veered off course and was sent directly into the palace.
Looking at Chu Yunci in front of him, Jiang Lai racked his brains and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out how this busy man could suddenly think of a little transparent person like himself.
"Are you very busy recently?"
What Chu Yunci said was incomprehensible.
Whether she is busy or not has nothing to do with him.
But his father was still working in the hands of others, so Jiang Lai saluted politely.
"Back to Your Highness, I have nothing to worry about, so I'm not busy."
"Aren't you busy? Why don't you come to flatter me if you're not busy?"
"..."
Jiang Lai raised his head, met Chu Yunci's dark eyes, and understood to some extent why this man was the invincible being in this article.
This mind is so clear.
Jiang Lai smiled, not embarrassed at all.
"Your Highness holds a high position and everyone in the world is queuing up to flatter you. Considering that you are busy with government affairs, I dare not disturb you at will." (End of Chapter)
