The emperor was lying in bed. A palace maid had just fed the medicinal soup into his mouth when it flowed out again. His consciousness had returned, but he was weak in all four limbs and unable to move. His hand was slightly half - open, trying to clench it, but he couldn't!
The people serving him looked very strange. Seeing that the emperor refused to take the medicine, the palace maid simply took it away. "The prince said that if Your Majesty is willing to take the medicine, then take it. If not, there's no need to force it."
After saying that, she withdrew. In the huge bedroom, only the emperor was left lying there, unable to turn over or move.
It took him a long time to spit out two words from his mouth: "Unfilial son!"
Zhongli Mingye didn't care about the emperor's condition. Now the imperial palace was strictly guarded by him, and Concubine Qin and the young prince were also closely monitored.
No one cared whether Concubine Qin was really crazy or faking it. But many palace maids said that since the emperor fell seriously ill, Concubine Qin had been getting better day by day. She originally wanted to take care of the emperor herself, but unexpectedly, she was controlled.
Zhongli Chengze scratched the wounds on his body. The wounds seriously injured by Chen Mingzhu had begun to scab. But due to the lack of doctors and medicine, the faint pain tortured him almost to the point of losing his mind.
Especially when he saw that graceful figure, he almost rushed up. "Princess Yu!"
Jinyu was very satisfied. After such a long - winded detour, his ultimate goal was finally achieved. In his fox - like eyes, there was a gentle spring, no longer the previous coldness.
"Ouyang Jinse! Where is Concubine Shu?" Song Jinyu didn't waste any words with her. Although she wasn't sure whether this woman who looked exactly like Ouyang Jinse was really him, as soon as she called out this name, Jinyu, that is, Ouyang Jinse, was instantly stunned there.
It also brought him back to reality. Now, just like her, he was also in a female body!
His eyes gradually turned sinister. "Your prince doesn't treat you that well. For the sake of Concubine Shu, didn't he just give you away?"
With a faint smile, Song Jinyu said, "How he treats me has nothing to do with you!"
It had nothing to do with him. Ouyang Jinse's gaze was as if he wanted to kill someone. He stood up, reached out his hand and grabbed Song Jinyu. "Very soon, it will have something to do with me!"
He leaned forward, trying to kiss her.
Zhongli Chengze beside them widened his phoenix - like eyes. She was actually Ouyang Jinse? How could she be a woman?
Song Jinyu closed her eyes. "Jinse, I know you're filled with hatred in your heart."
"If killing me can make you feel better, then kill me."
Her voice trembled slightly. Ouyang Jinse stopped. "Do you think I'll kill you?"
He shook his head and laughed like a madman. "I want you to live well." After all these years, his hand finally touched that flower - like delicate face.
But Ouyang Jinse deeply understood that the man who made this delicate face bloom with such an enchanting charm was not him.
The jealousy and hatred in his heart became more and more unbearable. But at the moment when she lowered her head and drooped her eyes, a soft call of "Brother Jinse" made all his defenses crumble. He put his arm around her slender waist and stared at her. "Why? After doing such heartless things, how can you still be so calm?"
Song Jinyu said helplessly, "Master and Yan Fei are the most important people in my life!"
"You killed them and tried to destroy the entire Tianmen Mountain. But you still expect me to be with you... Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Ridiculous? "Song Jinyu, I'll make you live well, live in pain just like me."
"Guess what will happen to Zhongli Mingye without you?"
He sighed. "You and I are the most suitable couple. Without you, he still has other women. After all, he is the future emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty... Soon... he will forget you!"
Song Jinyu didn't take it seriously. "If that's the case, I'll actually be very relieved."
"At least he won't be so painful. At least he can live a happy life." Song Jinyu wasn't heartless. Instead, she thought that if she asked Zhongli Mingye to abandon everything and die with her, it would be better for him to live well. Their Dabao would also live a better life.
Hearing this, Ouyang Jinse was furious. "Fine, then I'll let you see it with your own eyes!" Zhongli Chengze looked at Ouyang Jinse and then at the Princess Yu, suddenly realizing something!
"You're really Ouyang Jinse? How did you become a woman?" Before Zhongli Chengze could finish his words, Ouyang Jinse waved his hand. He was sent flying and immediately fainted.
Ouyang Jinse's gaze fell on Song Jinyu's fair and delicate fingers. He was very familiar with the ring with a hidden mechanism there because he had been tricked by it more than once.
"Give it to me!"
Song Jinyu had no choice but to hand it over obediently. "Now that I'm here, please let Concubine Shu go."
"The person you should be after is me..."
"Ha... Song Jinyu..."
Ouyang Jinse's eyes became even more sinister, making people shiver. "If it weren't for Zhongli Mingye, would my Jinshui Palace have been destroyed so quickly?"
"Zhongli Mingye really loves you. For you... he actually did something to betray the emperor!"
The more he said, the more heart - broken he felt. It was precisely because of what Zhongli Mingye had done that Song Jinyu was so devoted to him and regarded Ouyang Jinse as nothing.
As soon as Zhongli Mingye led his troops out of the city, Zhong Yuanliu stepped forward to greet him. "Your subordinate found the mark left by the princess..."
"The princess once stayed in this mountain villa!"
Why did she leave the city privately? Was it to be a bait? His mother was still missing, and now she had also disappeared. "Chase!"
Song Chuyu went home and first asked Mrs. Xiang to go to the prince's mansion. "Please take care of Dabao..."
"Make sure no one takes advantage of this opportunity!"
At this time, Ming Ruyi also got the news. He never expected that Song Jinyu would take such a risk just to find out the whereabouts of Concubine Shu. He couldn't sit still immediately, but he was also concerned about the funeral of Empress Dowager Ming.
Rong Shuang'er noticed the change in his mood and knew that he hadn't completely let go of his feelings for Song Jinyu. "My prince, go!"
"Your concubine will definitely prepare the funeral of the queen mother well."
She put her hands on Ming Ruyi's shoulders. A trace of imperceptible pain flashed in her eyes. "If Jinyu can't come back, your concubine will also be sad."
Song Jinyu was also her friend.
Ming Ruyi held her hand back. "Thank you!" Then he mounted his horse and galloped out of the city! A trace of guilt flashed across his beautiful face, but he had no regrets.
Song Jinyu looked at Ouyang Jinse helplessly. She remembered that about three years ago, she was also kidnapped by him like this and taken to the Jinshui Palace.
That time, Zhongli Mingye came to rescue her. In the forest under the sunlight, she was kissed so hard that she could hardly breathe.
He said, "If my heart is towards Jinyu, then I'll just follow my heart!" What a fool. Didn't he know that marrying her would bring a lot of troubles?
Thinking of Zhongli Mingye, Song Jinyu felt a slight pain in her chest.
