739 Her Majesty's rebellion Prime Minister 40

When he lost it, his past shortcomings would be beautified by distance.

Xia Ling's departure gave Ji Wenyuan space to imagine.

She didn't care about the country and arranged the imperial guards. If Ji Wenyuan rebelled, she wouldn't resist because she was prepared to give the throne to Ji Wenyuan.

Even if she fought to the death, Ji Wenyuan could still succeed in his rebellion.

Then she might as well turn these conditions to her advantage.

*

As expected...

In the original plot, Ji Wenyuan was only able to sit firmly on the emperor's throne because of Princess Zhaoping's help.

The two of them became a community of interests.

And now, Ji Wenyuan didn't rely on Zhaoping to sit firmly on the emperor's throne.

He obtained the imperial guards of the capital and the tiger talismans at the border.

The military power in Zhaoping's hands wasn't that important to Ji Wenyuan.

Then Zhaoping wasn't important to Ji Wenyuan anymore.

*

Xia Ling dared to leave the palace like this. Wasn't she afraid that if she wasn't in the palace, Ji Wenyuan would really marry Zhaoping?

It was because she knew Ji Wenyuan well enough.

Moreover, there were still some tricks up his sleeve.

That night, Ji Wenyuan didn't sleep at all.

And after he fell asleep, he had a dream.

The woman in the dream was Neon Phoenix.

The woman had snow-white skin and was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. She still looked like the empress.

On the bright red bed, she lay on her side and looked at him with a smile on her face.

"Ji Ai Qing, why don't you come up?"

She looked at him with a flowing gaze. Her appearance and posture were very charming.

In front of Ji Wenyuan, he was wearing a brown official robe and standing behind the curtain.

In the Spring Dew Hall, he seemed to be a bystander.

He looked at the woman who seemed lazy, but there was genuine affection in her eyes.

At that time, he didn't know anything about all this. He only knew that he was stiff and wary of her.

He thought that she was an emperor who coveted his beauty. He mocked her in his heart and didn't know about his wild ambitions.

"Minister Ji, I'm very pleased with you."

She snuggled into his arms. The two of them were in the hot spring. They seemed to be at loggerheads, but in fact, there was a kind of indescribable harmony.

And when she was saying this, with her never lazy phoenix eyes, from the angle of his view now, unexpectedly he could see her undisguised affection.

And finally...

It was the night he was with her in Yangxin Palace.

He plotted to take her throne and imprisoned her. The two of them were in Yangxin Temple.

She said the harsh words, with closed eyes, but the corner of the eye is soaked with a tear.

The tears seemed to fall on his heart.

Waking up after the dream, Ji Wenyuan could feel in his heart a deep loss, as if hollowed out by something.

He didn't know why he had such a dream.

But what he saw was Neon Phoenix hiding her feelings for him behind his back.

From the perspective of a bystander.

At that time, his heart was full of power.

She had long understood everything, so from that moment on, she had wanted to give up everything, follow him, and fight for a future with him, right?

Unfortunately, after she wanted to be his only one, he rejected her because of power.

Then she took the child and left him.

Perhaps she had really given up on him?

Thinking of this, Ji Wenyuan, who was sitting on the bed at a loss, felt as if his heart was being twisted by a knife.

Looking at the gorgeous veil in front of him, the red color gradually became dreary.

Ji Wenyuan's vision turned black, and he vomited a mouthful of black blood.

*

When Ji Wenyuan vomited blood...

Xia Ling's side mission was truly completed.

The last little flower was flickering with light. It connected with the other four flowers and turned into a ball of white light.
