I hesitated for a moment but decided to go see him.
As I approached Jiang Zhizhu's chamber, I heard a burst of laughter.
It was Jiang Zhizhu's voice.
What was he laughing about?
Pushing the door open, I saw Jiang Zhizhu sitting in front of a mirror, holding a hairpin and laughing happily.
When he noticed my arrival, he suppressed his laughter and looked up at me.
"What are you here for?"
I bowed and replied softly, "I came to visit my elder brother."
Jiang Zhizhu snorted coldly and turned his back to me.
"Jiang Huan, do you know?"
"Mother once told me that you are the most hypocritical person."
"She warned me to be cautious of you and not to be deceived by your schemes."
At those words, my body stiffened for a moment.
Mother said to warn Jiang Zhizhu about me.
But she had never told me to be wary of Jiang Zhizhu.
I took a deep breath, suppressing the sadness within me, and said softly, "Elder brother, I never intended to harm you."
"I came today just to find out why you went to the Imperial Study this morning."
Jiang Zhizhu fell silent for a moment before suddenly asking, "Jiang Huan, do you want to see Mother?"
I was taken aback by his question.
In the evening, Han Wen arrived.
Usually, Han Wen wouldn't come to see me.
Even if she did come, she would be called away by Jiang Zhizhu within half an hour.
But today, Jiang Zhizhu did not send anyone to summon her.
Han Wen stood in the night, her gaze towards me somewhat complicated.
Our eyes met, reminiscent of the times we shared the same bed.
Han Wen asked me, " Huan, did you have a nightmare?"
I was taken aback, lowered my head, and shook it.
Han Wen reached out her hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes.
In a soft voice, she said, "Don't cry, it hurts my heart."
"Jiang Zhizhu has been spoiled, don't blame him."
For some reason, my heart ached a little.
Han Wen said that Jiang Zhizhu had been spoiled. So what?
My heart sank suddenly.
Han Wen… was actually speaking up for Jiang Zhizhu in front of me.
It seemed that in her heart, there was only Jiang Zhizhu.
" Huan, your eyes are all swollen from crying."
Han Wen's fingers gently caressed my cheek, her voice as gentle as water: " Huan, please stop crying, okay?"
I closed my eyes, not wanting to look at her anymore.
" Huan, are you still blaming me?"
" Huan, do you know? Seeing you like this really breaks my heart."
Han Wen sighed softly and lowered her head to kiss my eyes.
Her lips were soft and warm, but it made me think that she might have used those same lips to kiss Jiang Zhizhu, which made me feel nauseous.
I suddenly pushed her away.
Han Wen was taken aback, her expression instantly darkening: " Huan, do you… do you dislike me?"
"Your Majesty, this humble servant does not dare."
"Then why..."
"Your Majesty, this humble servant does not dare. I am unwell, please forgive me."
Han Wen looked at me deeply, then suddenly sighed, "Forget it, since you do not wish to, I will not force you."
I lowered my head and did not respond.
" Huan, I know you are very sad, but you also understand that I cannot allow her to come to harm."
"So what?"
" Huan, I want you to help Zhiwei with Breeding Gu."
" Huan, I know this request is excessive for you."
Han Wen held my hand, her tone earnest: "But Huan, you love me so much; you would never let me or our child come to harm, would you?"
I stared blankly at her, my heart filled with mixed emotions.
I knew I had no choice left.
" Huan, once you have cured Zhiwei of the poison, we can start over, alright?"
Start over?
I closed my eyes and sighed, "Your Majesty, this humble servant does not dare. I have only one request."
"You may speak."
"Your Majesty, this humble servant does not dare. I wish to leave this place."
" Huan, you..."
"Your Majesty, this humble servant does not dare. I just want to leave this place."
Han Wen was silent for a moment and then said, "Alright, I promise you."
Just then, a Court Lady hurried in: "Your Majesty, the Empress is having a headache; please come and take a look."
Han Wen frowned slightly, seeming somewhat displeased.
