Chapter 291 The Sick King Qin
Chapter 291 The Sick King Qin
Ye Jintang didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Mo. He was a shameless man and just pretended not to see her and walked closer with a shameless face.
"Jintang, my shoulder is still uncomfortable. Can you help me see if there are other problems with the shoulder injury?"
"No way. Logically speaking, I gave you the best medicine. You should be almost healed after such a long time."
When Ye Jintang heard that Xiao Mo felt uncomfortable in his shoulder, he immediately came over to check.
After taking his pulse, I found that he was fine. When I removed the gauze on his shoulder, I found that the originally red and swollen wound had already healed and only a small trace remained.
"This is not fine, I feel uncomfortable somewhere."
Xiao Mo suddenly grabbed Ye Jintang's hand and said, "I feel uncomfortable when you ignore me."
"Don't come on, then do you know why I'm angry?"
"I just found out. Don't worry, I promise there won't be even a female mosquito around me in the future."
"It's not that exaggerated. If it was a normal woman, I wouldn't mind."
The implication is that Duan Linghui is abnormal.
"I see."
Xiao Mo was so smart and understood things immediately. Besides, he was also very eloquent, so Ye Jintang's unhappiness soon disappeared.
She simply took this opportunity to make some things clear.
"There's something I haven't told you. Let's get it out in the open now while there's still time."
"If the prince really wants to be with me for a long time, not only can he not take concubines, he can't have concubines either. Even if the prince becomes the emperor in the future, he can't have concubines."
"I am a rather aloof person and don't like to share my husband's love with other women. If Your Majesty can't do that, it's better for us to make it clear as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty, please think carefully before answering. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Your Majesty, you can't go back on your word if you promise me."
In fact, Ye Jintang should have told Xiao Mo about this problem a long time ago, but there were too many miscellaneous things along the way and she had never taken care of it.
Duan Linghui's appearance gave her the perfect opportunity to explain the matter clearly.
Fine, they can continue to live together. No, she will just be a wealthy and carefree businesswoman with the empty title of Princess Qin. No matter what Xiao Mo chooses, it won't have much impact on her.
"Jintang, I only have you in my heart, and I won't tolerate anyone else. Even if I become the emperor in the future, my harem will be empty."
"Besides, it's not easy to make money. I use all the money to support the soldiers, so how can I have money to support the concubines in the harem? They are very wasteful of money."
Xiao Mo, who grew up in the harem, naturally knew how much the expenses of the women in the harem were.
He doesn't want to waste all his money on this.
Ye Jintang looked at Xiao Mo, thinking to himself, he only has her in his heart. Maybe he doesn't want to keep so many concubines in the harem because he is poor.
The two of them did not continue to talk about this topic. Since Xiao Mo had agreed, she would not continue to dwell on this issue. As for whether he could do it in the future, let time prove it.
Ye Jintang saw that the injury on Xiao Mo's shoulder was not serious. She put down the medical book in her hand and sent him away. She wanted to rest.
Xiao Mo was not so easy to chase away, and the two of them hesitated for a long time before turning off the lights.
The light was on in the king's tent, so Duan Linghui would be able to see it if she was not blind.
She hid aside and looked in the direction of the king's tent, feeling extremely upset.
Before Xiao Mo was not yet a prince, she had thought about marrying him, but there were wars every day at that time, and Xiao Mo had no such idea, so she could only watch silently by his side.
Later, when the war was over, she wanted her brother to talk to Xiao Mo about this matter, but Duan Feng refused on the grounds that she was young, and said that he would talk to Xiao Mo when she was older.
After waiting for a long time, she finally got the news that Xiao Mo was crowned king and got married.
She thought that there was no possibility for her and Xiao Mo in this life, but unexpectedly, God opened his eyes and Xiao Mo was going to the fiefdom of Ningchuan Prefecture, which gave her hope again.
She would definitely try every possible means to get Ye Jintang out. She was the one who loved Xiao Mo the most, and she was just someone forced upon Xiao Mo by the Marquis' Mansion.
After resting for a night, they broke camp early the next morning and continued their journey towards Jianing City.
At the same time, Zhou Quankun had already arrived in Jianing City and met up with Yao Zhen.
"Xiaozhen finally sees you."
When Zhou Quankun saw Yao Zhen dressed as a peasant woman, he almost didn't recognize her.
"Brother Kun, your eyes?"
"When attacking Xiao Mo, he was blown up by the thunder bomb in Shi Bin's hand."
Zhou Quankun touched the black eye patch on his eyes, his words filled with hatred.
"As long as you are alive, I thought I would never see you again in this life."
With red eyes, Yao Zhen didn't care at all that Zhou Quankun had blinded one eye. She threw herself into Zhou Quankun's arms and burst into tears.
She suffered a lot on the way from the capital to Jianing City. In order to prevent Imperial Noble Consort Dehui from finding her, she disguised herself as a beggar and a merchant. Sometimes, when she saw that the city gates were tightly guarded, she did not dare to enter the city and could only hide in the wilderness outside the city to sleep.
Such fearful days almost made her collapse.
Now that she finally saw her lover whom she could rely on, the tension in Yao Zhen's heart suddenly broke.
She hugged Zhou Quankun and cried so hard that she could hardly breathe.
"With me here, no one can hurt you. Xiaozhen, tell me what happened in the capital and why you were hunted by Imperial Noble Consort Dehui."
"I was wronged."
Yao Zhen wiped the tears from her face and told Zhou Quankun everything that happened in the capital.
"Someone must have framed me. How could I have the guts to go to the palace and steal the treasury of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui? Even if I had the guts, I don't have the ability to do it."
"Do you know how much silver was stolen from Imperial Concubine Dehui's vault?"
"There are all kinds of rumors. Some say they emptied the place outright, while others say they stole several million taels."
"Several million taels is not a small amount of money. Ordinary people can't take it away."
Zhou Quankun was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you know who framed you and harmed the entire Yao family?"
"I seldom have grudges against others on a daily basis. If I really want to count, it seems that I have offended quite a few people since I entered the Prince Qi's Mansion and followed Ye Yanran."
Zhou Quankun knew best what Yao Zhen's ambitions were. She had had enough of living like an ant and was eager to climb up.
And climbing up will inevitably affect the interests of others.
"Could it be Ye Jintang?" Zhou Quankun muttered.
Ye Yanran and Ye Jintang were fighting to the death, and Yao Zhen had given her advice, so it was very likely that Ye Jintang held a grudge against her because of this.
"It's very likely. Ye Jintang is probably a scheming person. When she was in the Marquis' Mansion, she acted pitiful and looked harmless, so anyone could step on her."
"She has completely changed since she became the Princess of Qin, and her methods are extremely powerful. It is not impossible that she and Xiao Mo teamed up to steal the treasury of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui."
Suddenly Zhou Quankun thought of Xiao Mo's carriage team. There seemed to be too many boxes and cages in their carriage team.
At the beginning, Emperor Jing suddenly ordered him to go to his fiefdom. Logically, he left in a hurry and would only take some gold and silver jewelry with him. How could he have so many boxes and cages?
If this is true, Xiao Mo would be highly suspicious.
A carriage can hold a lot of silver.
