Chapter XVII
Ye Zhaopei's face was red, and he muttered in a low voice: "Your Majesty, if you do this again, I won't dare to come to see you." ”
Jiang Zhi sighed, lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek: "Don't come to see me, I don't say these words." ”
After a pause, Jiang Zhi pressed Ye Zhaopei's waist again, and said, "But Zhaopei, you have to be ready, you are my queen, and that day will always come." ”
Ye Zhaopei was stunned for a moment, Jiang Zhi had already picked her up from the table and put her on the ground.
Ye Zhaopei's face was still red, and his eyes were fixed on Jiang Zhi's body. So Jiang Zhi asked her with a smile: "Is there anything else you want to say to me?" ”
After being silent for a moment, Ye Zhaopei nodded: "Yes." ”
On the way here, Ye Zhaopei actually made some plans, about what to say to Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi raised an eyebrow to look at her: "What?" ”
Ye Zhaopei took a deep breath, leaned over with courage, pulled the corner of Jiang Zhi's sleeve, and whispered in Jiang Zhi's ear on tiptoe: "Your Excellency, I like you very much." ”
Listening to her confession, Jiang Zhi felt that the soles of his feet were fluttering. He looked at Ye Zhaopei and persuaded her: "Say it again, I didn't hear clearly." ”
"Your Majesty, you bluffed me, you heard me clearly." Ye Zhaopei snorted and rebelled against his cheekiness.
"I really didn't hear clearly." Jiang Zhi continued to play scoundrel.
Ye Zhaopei snorted and turned away: "Then I won't continue, I'm going back, and tomorrow I have to go to the Birthday Hall to continue cultivating with the queen mother, I can't get up late." ”
Jiang Zhi pretended to be aggrieved behind her: "Zhao Pei, won't you accompany me?" I've been busy with politics lately, and I haven't had a good night's sleep in days. I really didn't hear what you said just now. ”
He pretended to be presentable, Ye Zhaopei was innocent, and he naturally distinguished the true from the fake. She couldn't bear it, turned back, and said, "I didn't say anything special, I just said, Your Majesty, you are very good." You have been so good to me, and I often feel that I have no way to leave your side. ”
Jiang Zhi looked at her, his gaze froze slightly.
In fact, if he hadn't had such a dream, he might not have been so good to Ye Zhaopei. Midnight dream, his mind was always the scene when Ye Zhaopei stabbed the long sword into his chest, she stood in front of the bed with a blank face, and the full moon behind her was dim.
When I wake up, I feel a dull pain in my chest. So Jiang Zhi understood that Ye Zhaopei meant too much to him.
Seeing Jiang Zhi's expression, Ye Zhaopei was a little worried: "Your Majesty, are you really uncomfortable?" Do you want to call a doctor to take a look? ”
Jiang Zhi shook his head, took a step forward, and hugged Ye Zhaopei: "Any elixir is not as effective as yours." ”
He frowned, "I just remembered when I lost you in my dream. I told you before, do you remember? I dreamed that I was very bad to you and that you came to kill me in the end. ”
Ye Zhaopei nodded: "I remember." ”
After a moment of silence, she whispered again, "Actually...... Your Majesty, what I said just now is that I like you very much. ”
Jiang Zhi smiled: "I like it very much, what kind of like is it?" ”
Ye Zhaopei said: "At the beginning of the burning mountain, I became good friends with Yun Mang, he didn't learn as strict as mine, once, he asked me very strangely, why do I have to work so hard as a woman?" I said that my life was given by the king, and I will dedicate my life to this matter, to be the most powerful killer, and to clear all obstacles to the future of the king. Some people also asked me, if I really have hands and eyes to the sky and outstanding martial arts, why don't I replace the king and claim the king myself? ”
Jiang Zhi looked down at her: "Then what did you say?" ”
Ye Zhaopei said: "I said, the king is already the only beauty left in my depressed life, he is the only meaning, if he dies, people think that the radiant world is only gloomy in my Ye Zhaopei's opinion." ”
Is it worth it just because of a glimpse of it when you were young?
Ye Zhaopei never nodded in doubt, it was worth it.
Jiang Zhi sighed, not knowing what to do with Ye Zhaopei. How to pet it? Hold it in the palm of your hand and hold it in your mouth? One or two methods, they are also afraid of damage.
"I'm a killer, and I don't know what to do to you. In the past, I killed people for you, even if you asked for my life, it didn't matter at all, I wouldn't frown. Is that good for you? I do not know. Now that you don't need me to kill people, then I have no choice but to show my sincerity to you. Although you can rest assured, Ye Zhaopei is yours from the inside out. Ye Zhaopei spoke very softly.
She hadn't learned much poetry, books, etiquette, and righteousness, and these words were all pieced together by her racking her brains.
She wanted Jiang Zhi to know that she did like him.
Jiang Zhi hugged Ye Zhaopei and nodded: "I know." ”
After a long time, he said again: "If you talk about it, Zhao Pei, this world is not as good as you." ”
——————
After complaining to each other all night, Ye Zhaopei went back to the wrong garden, his heart was still beating wildly, he couldn't sleep well that night, and went to the birthday hall, and his spirit was not very good.
Empress Dowager Zheng didn't blame her, but pulled her to drink tea together. Green apricots and white pears served on the side, with some smiles in their eyes.
At this time, Jiang Zhi was not very happy.
The Eastern Corner Kingdom ushered in an envoy sent by the Emperor of Chaojing to meet Jiang Zhi in person. As the monarch of the Eastern Corner Kingdom, he was responsible for the Son of Heaven, and Jiang Zhi treated the Son of Heaven with courtesy. Even if he knew very well why the envoy had come here.
The envoy Jiang Zhi met in the study had no special memory of the envoy's appearance.
The envoy greeted the Empress Dowager Zheng and Jiang Zhi again, and when he saw Jiang Zhi frowning impatiently, he stopped and said instead: "Your Excellency, I still remember that I met in Beijing last year, and I have been a little old in the past. ”
The envoy's remarks made Jiang Zhi's heart very irritable. Jiang Zhi sneered: "Who is the Son of Heaven thinking, just say it." ”
When the envoy heard Jiang Zhi say this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but he quickly adjusted and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is right to say this...... The Son of Heaven and the Son of Heaven are brothers of the same lineage, and the Son of Heaven dreams of the Son of Heaven. But well, didn't Jun Shang still have a beautiful sword by his side at the beginning? The Son of Heaven also saw the beautiful sword a few times in his dream. ”
After a pause, the envoy said: "The Son of Heaven likes the beauty sword very much, and he almost suffers from illness when he thinks about it, so he called Weichen to come and ask the king when he can send the beauty sword to Chaojing." If you can, after a while, the beauty sword can go with Weichen. ”
Finally showed the fox's tail.
Jiang Zhi glanced at him indifferently: "There is no beauty sword in the East Corner Country. ”
The envoy was slightly stunned, and Jiang Zhi continued: "The Son of Heaven should have also heard about the edict I issued. The beauty sword is Ye Zhaopei, the queen I decreed. ”
The envoy lowered his eyes: "But...... Didn't the king already promise the Son of Heaven? So...... I'm afraid it will displease the Son of Heaven, right? Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven said that if he can get the beauty sword, then whatever the monarch wants, he is willing to ......"
"Do you think there's something else missing in my eastern country?" Jiang Zhi coldly interrupted the envoy's unfinished words.
He said: "Originally, you were the envoy of the Son of Heaven, and according to the rules, I should have kept you here for a few days, but now I don't even want to give the face of the Son of Heaven." Leave the palace quickly today, and let me see you no more. ”
The envoy was surprised: "Your Majesty, this is not a rule!" ”
Jiang Zhi glanced at him: "What, in the East Country, in my country, what rules do you talk to me about?" I'm the rule, tell you to get out of here, and you'll get out of here! ”
The envoy was speechless all of a sudden, and the official took a step forward and stopped the envoy who wanted to speak and stopped: "Please go out quickly, no one can stop the temper of the king." ”
The ministers were so angry that they couldn't speak, but they didn't seem to leave.
In his opinion, as an envoy of the Son of Heaven, in other vassal states, that is, the symbol of the Son of Heaven, how did he come to this eastern kingdom to suffer such anger? Naturally, he was not angry.
Seeing that he didn't leave, Jiang Zhi immediately raised his eyebrows and swept over: "Why don't you leave?" Do you want me to drive people out? ”
The minister's body shook, and Guan Shui sighed: "The king is angry." ”
Jiang Zhi couldn't calm his anger, as soon as he thought that this envoy had come here to take Ye Zhaopei away from him, his mood became irritable. He grabbed a cup in his hand and slammed it at the envoy.
The cup didn't hit the envoy, and it shattered when it landed on the ground, and the sound was crisp. There was still a lot of tea left in the cup, and it splashed, staining the hem of the envoy's clothes.
Everyone was terrified.
Jiang Zhi has always behaved politely, and although he is alienated and indifferent to people, he has never seen such a violent anger. Even Guan Shui, who had served Jiang Zhi for many years, had never seen such a Jiang Zhi, and he knew that Jiang Zhi was because it was about Ye Zhaopei, but he was still taken aback when he saw Jiang Zhi like this.
Facing Jiang Zhi's anger, Guan Shui and the attendants hurriedly knelt down: "Your Excellency is angry!" ”
The envoy looked left and right, and knelt down: "Jun, the king is angry." ”
"What's going on here?" A soft voice rang out in the doorway.
The envoy knelt on the ground, hung his head, and when he heard that sound, he couldn't help but think in his heart, where did this come from? Don't you know that the king of this eastern corner country is angry now? It is said that this Jiang Zhi is ruthless, when he died in Huangquan, but he didn't even have tears to cry.
But unexpectedly, as soon as this person arrived, Jiang Zhi's voice, who was originally angry, softened: "It's nothing, it's just a broken cup." ”
The envoy was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to see who was speaking, and wondered where the sacredness could make Jiang Zhi's attitude change so much. At a glance, he couldn't help but be even more stunned.
This woman, isn't the beauty sword he met with the Son of Heaven at the beginning?
Ye Zhaopei passed by the envoy's side, leaving a faint fragrance.
She glanced at the crumbs of the cup on the ground and snorted: "Nonsense, I think you are angry." How much you hurt yourself when you get angry, you don't know. How could you be upset? ”
Jiang Zhi sighed, looked at Ye Zhaopei, and all his anger disappeared.
Sometimes, that's where the magic of love comes in.
