Have You Written Your Will Today?-Chapter 501 - 494: That Bastard Has Plenty of Schemes
The moon exuded a hazy beauty.
Inside the Imperial Palace, Ji Teng met Ying Yi and after hearing his words, his face completely darkened. Returning to his chamber, he saw Wei Yingying had fallen asleep, then turned to the desk.
He paid attention and focused on this matter.
Thinking back to Wei Yingying lying on the couch and reading, he was stifled for books she loved and intended to prepare more.
Ji Teng flipped open the first book.
"Divorced Lady"
He opened the second book.
"Heartless Man"
The third book had clearly been flipped through numerous times.
"Emperor’s Cruelty"
Very well.
Ji Teng laughed bitterly in anger.
He calmed his mind, his face frosty but his steps slow as he walked out of the chamber, speaking mercilessly to the Hidden Guard.
"Bring Ji Huo to me, bound!"
Were it not for Wei Yingying being pregnant, she might still be at the Minister of Justice Mansion! This time, it could be said he was honored because of his son.
No wonder, after returning to the palace, Wei Yingying would occasionally provoke him, assuming it was the temper of a pregnant woman.
Unexpectedly, it was Ji Huo’s doing.
Ying Yi still stood there. His expressionless face said, "The Prince also has a message to pass to the official family."
Ji Teng looked over, listening as Ying Yi’s voice was hoarse.
"The Princely Heir’s nature is well-known to those familiar; without someone’s instigation, he wouldn’t have thought of such a sinister trick."
Ying Yi respectfully said, "It will also be a bother to the official family to bind the Seventh Prince as well."
If it weren’t for Cui Yun being happy today, he himself would likely have taken action.
"Ji Teng!"
A voice called out from within the chamber.
Ji Teng paused, leaving a sentence that he knew before striding inside.
Indeed, Wei Yingying was awake. She sat on the bed, her eyes bleary.
"I’m hungry."
She had slept from noon until now, and hadn’t yet had her evening meal. Ji Teng calculated the time after returning, anticipating that she would wake up, so he had the Imperial Kitchen prepare some food.
He brought over a bowl of Sanxian porridge to feed her.
Wei Yingying turned her head away.
"What’s wrong?"
Ji Teng asked in good humor, "Didn’t you want to eat this yesterday?"
Wei Yingying looked noticeably displeased.
She felt that Ji Teng was not taking things seriously.
"Yesterday was yesterday, today is today. I want to eat pork knuckle now. Is that not allowed?"
"Alright, I’ll have the Imperial Kitchen make it, but first, have a few bites of this."
Wei Yingying frowned, glancing at Ji Teng.
"Are you growing impatient with me?"
"Not at all."
Wei Yingying: "Then you have a few bites first."
She clearly tried clumsily to cover her tracks, "These past few days, I might have been too harsh on you, it’s not that I’m suspicious, but I fear the porridge might be poisoned, you might not know, I have heard a lot recently about ruthless husbands harming their wives."
So many...
It’s from your book"Emperor’s Cruelty"isn’t it.
Ji Teng felt darkness before his eyes.
When he exited the chamber again, he coldly instructed the Hidden Guard.
"Let Ji Huo and Ji Ge roll over here to me!"
Not bound, but making them roll over themselves.
The fury was overwhelming.
————
The Duke Mansion and the Seventh Prince Mansion are far apart, Ji Ge intentionally spent more time with Le Jia, the same journey took half the pace, and only now was returning.
Ji Ge was the first to jump off the carriage.
Le Jia lifted the carriage curtain, stepped out of the compartment, and then saw Ji Ge reaching out his hand. She remained silent for a moment, not placing her hand in his, even stepping back.
But he forcefully grasped her hand and helped her down from the carriage.
Ji Ge did not let her dodge nor did he let go.
Le Jia’s eyes flickered slightly, but for the first time, she did not dodge again.
The couple headed inside.
The news of their discord had spread long ago, and therefore, at noon, an official sought Ji Ge intending to send a concubine daughter into his home.
She was also present at the time.
Ji Ge refused.
He righteously told the official not to harm him. After sending the person away, Ji Ge almost swore to Le Jia.
"Before, I admit I was frivolous, frequently visiting the pleasure districts, and I did have intimate acquaintances," he confessed.
"But after marrying you, I haven’t messed up again."
"My mother died from a hemorrhage shortly after giving birth to me. The late Emperor had many offspring and regarded me as an ominous creature."
His birth mother was just a lowly talented person without any backing. Ji Ge was despised by the Emperor from a young age, and the palace servants that attended him were all cunning, most of those with connections left to serve in other palaces, leaving behind those who were indifferent.
In the treacherous Imperial Palace, just surviving was difficult.
"Originally, only Cui Yun didn’t disdain me. He was willing to associate with me. When he was younger, he was different from now. If nothing had happened, he might have ended up like Shen, and I owe it to his frequent private help."
"I’m not telling you this to gain your pity, I just want to clarify with you, I want a home more than anyone else. There are no other concubines or concubines, just the two of us, and our offspring are legitimate and direct."
He did not want his children to walk the same difficult path he had.
Previously, he hadn’t loved Le Jia, but he hadn’t mistreated her either, even consciously avoiding his former careless behavior after their marriage.
After hearing this, Le Jia merely pursed her lips, silent for a long time only to unexpectedly say on the returning carriage, "I am unclean."
She was actually deceiving him.
Originally, Ji Teng had arrived just in time; she remained a virgin, and later with Ji Zhui, it was merely an act.
It was evident that Xiaoqi’s aphrodisiac was indeed effective, as Ji Zhui had never suspected anything.
She would not go so far as to ruin herself just to set someone up.
She just wanted to see if Ji Ge minded.
Ji Ge was stunned.
He wanted to say he was dirtier than Le Jia and now regretted his past.
He also regretted that when the incident occurred, he did not take action, he was inattentive.
But such words, heartfelt as they may be, can also be empty. Anyone can speak, everyone has a mouth.
In the end, he said: "You are already brave enough."
"Thank you, Princess, for always protecting my Le Jia."
Using her status as a princess, she kept climbing upwards, avoiding falling into the abyss.
"It’s been long enough, it’s time for me to take over the duty."
Therefore, Le Jia actually found Ji Ge agreeable. She let him lead her.
But for Ji Ge, it was a signal. He was insatiable. There was a servant carrying a lantern leading the way ahead, and their shadows drew closer and closer.
Le Jia could feel Ji Ge’s hand inching further, wrapping around her shoulder. He even held his breath and asked.
"Tonight, can I sleep in the same room with you?"
Before Le Jia could refuse, someone from the Imperial Palace arrived. Behind the Imperial Guard, there was a drunken Ji Huo.
Ji Ge guessed something but outright denied: "This is Ji Huo’s doing, why come to me!"
"It turns out, I am also innocent."
"What do you mean this is my lead? Can’t Ji Huo have a moment of intelligence for once!"
Hearing this, Ji Huo was displeased: "What do you mean it has nothing to do with you? Now you want to run, no way!"
If we are to die, let’s die together!
The brothers began to break.
Rarely smart Ji Huo: "I haven’t seen you being very smart! These past days, I’ve had enough of your farce."
He began to mock: "You’ve received so many cold looks from Le Jia! No matter how eager you were, it was useless. Have you never thought about the reason?"
Le Jia was silent for a moment: "Did you never consider that I read those books too?"
Ji Ge as if struck by lightning: !!!
Ji Huo proudly: "You sneaky bastard, you don’t think you can remain safe and sound, do you?"
