The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 476 Tang'er, I am different from him!

Having said this, Ji Wuyuan paused, raised his hand, picked up the wine jar beside him, and took several gulps in one breath.

In fact, when he reached his position, he had already become cold-hearted and would not do such incompetent things as drowning his sorrows in alcohol and numbing himself.

However, sometimes, the pain and depression in the heart can only be released by the stimulation of bitter wine entering the throat.

After drinking, Ji Wuyuan narrowed his dark eyes slightly, and a hint of red tinged his already cold eyes: "I didn't expect that my outstanding performance would not bring comfort and stability to my mother, but more conspiracies, designs and frame-ups."

"That year, in this very palace, I watched helplessly as my mother, in order to prove her innocence to that man and to gain his conscience and mercy, committed suicide in the hall..."

"Blood flowed all over the ground. I was young and weak at the time and had no power to resist."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wantang's heart suddenly tightened.

Just listening to it can make people imagine and fall into a heavy, resentful, powerless and painful scene.

Jiang Wantang opened her mouth, wanting to say something to comfort him, but she felt that any words would seem pale and powerless at this moment.

She raised her hand and gently covered the back of Ji Wuyuan's hand, then held his hand tightly.

With the meaning of comfort and soothing.

Ji Wuyuan smiled nonchalantly and held Jiang Wantang's hand tightly.

At this moment, a few scattered snowflakes in the sky were blown towards the two of them by the cold wind...

Ji Wuyuan stretched out his other hand, and a tiny snowflake fell into his palm and melted into a drop of water in an instant.

When he spoke again, his voice was colder than the icy snow. He said, "It was at this moment that I finally saw clearly the cold-bloodedness and indifference of that man."

"He has no feelings for any of the princes and concubines in this harem."

"He's even so cold-blooded that he doesn't care about the life or death of anyone in the palace, even his own flesh and blood."

"Utterly cruel and ruthless."

As he spoke, Ji Wuyuan lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Wantang's clean and pure face. He looked at her for a long time, but in the end he still did not reveal all the vicious and dirty conspiracies, intrigues and complicated emotional entanglements of the previous dynasty and the harem.

And also, his unbearable past after being imprisoned...

For example, he had spent a long, dark time alone, and even survival seemed to be extremely difficult. As a prince, even the palace maids and eunuchs could bully him at will...

For example, in order to prove himself and his mother, he joined the army at the age of ten and went to the border to fight on the battlefield. He did not have any aura of a prince and started completely as a soldier.

His life hung by a thread countless times, but he fought hard and climbed all the way to the top. He came back with a lot of military merits and stood in front of that man with dignity.

From a person he ignored the most, he became his most outstanding and ruthless son who could not be ignored, and then to the most suitable candidate for the crown prince in his mind.

For example...

He never said a word to anyone about these sufferings and pains.

And he would never mention it in front of Jiang Wantang.

He didn't need Jiang Wantang's pity and sympathy, and he didn't want to see her sad because of the past.

His road to becoming an emperor was always littered with corpses and he had many chances of death.

And he never let go of those who bullied and hurt him.

Recalling these past events, Ji Wuyuan smiled, the smile on his lips full of sarcasm: "Do you know why I hate that man so much?"

"It's not just because of my mother's death..."

Jiang Wantang was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "Why?"

Ji Wuyuan's voice was very soft, but his eyes were extremely cold: "Because, later I found out that he actually had a woman and a child whom he cherished and loved as his own life."

"But the woman and child he cherished are all dead..."

"That's how he ended up with so many concubines and descendants."

He paused, the sarcasm on his lips growing stronger as he said, "All the women in the harem bear more or less resemblance to the woman he loved. They are all stand-ins he uses to commemorate his deceased lover."

"And he took a liking to my mother when she was among the common people. It was simply because she had a calm and gentle temperament that reminded him of an old friend. So he simply ordered her to be brought back to the palace."

"At that time, my mother was already engaged. She could have married a good man and lived a peaceful life, but because of him..."

Ji Wuyuan sneered: "Oh, what a ridiculous and selfish person!"

"It seems very affectionate, but it makes people feel very sick."

After a long silence...

Ji Wuyuan felt a pair of slender and soft arms wrapped around his waist.

The soft and fragrant body of the person in his arms was pressed tightly against him.

Ji Wuyuan lowered his eyes and looked at the charming face of Jiang Wantang in his arms, and his eyes softened a little.

He raised his hand and caressed her cheek lovingly, and said softly, "Tang'er, do you know?"

"Before I met you, I didn't understand the relationship between men and women. I just simply hated it."

"But after falling in love with you, I suddenly realized that if you truly love a woman, how could you touch other women?"

Such affection and love seemed ridiculous and dirty to him!

Jiang Wantang's eyes widened as she looked at him in surprise.

However, Ji Wuyuan looked at her seriously with deep eyes, his gaze was unbelievably focused. He said, "Tang'er, I am different from him!"

I love you, and only you!

In my life, I will only have children born by you.

Even if you don't love me and are not by my side, there will be no other shadow or substitute appearing.

He looked at Jiang Wantang deeply, and said in a serious tone without any trace of pretense, "You are irreplaceable to me."

Jiang Wantang stared at him blankly, and her silent heart inevitably trembled.

Unwavering preference and choice were what she had longed for and yearned for the most.

But when Ji Wuyuan put all this in front of her again, her heart did not feel relieved, but even heavier.

Jiang Wantang hugged Ji Wuyuan tightly with both hands, and the latter hugged her back tightly.

The two of them sat quietly hugging each other on the stone steps, watching the snowflakes falling in the yard.

The old plum tree in the courtyard is blooming in the snow, and under the night sky, bursts of fragrance float in the air...

Later, the sky grew darker and darker. Jiang Wantang nestled in Ji Wuyuan's arms. Suddenly, she looked up at him, and the latter lowered his eyes and looked over at her.

"Are you cold?" Ji Wuyuan asked in a low voice, raising his hand to brush away the snow particles in her hair.

Jiang Wantang shook her head. She smiled at him and said mysteriously, "Today is your Majesty's birthday. I have learned something specially and would like to show off my skills in front of your Majesty."

Ji Wuyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed across his dark pupils.
