Chapter 1: Out of Control Again
Then, Yan Zhi Xi pushed the door open and walked in.
"Your Majesty, please take it slow."
Zhang Gonggong lit the candles, and the room brightened up. The flickering candlelight illuminated Wen Qingyu, who lay motionless on the bed, her face ashen.
Yan Zhi Xi frowned and asked the physician, "Didn’t you say she would wake up today?"
"I'm afraid... I'm afraid the Consort is too deeply poisoned, her vitality severely damaged. It may take some more time," the physician replied, sensing something was wrong but unable to pinpoint the cause, causing cold sweat to trickle down his back.
"Incompetent doctor," Yan Zhi Xi scolded. "Get out!"
After the physician left, Yan Zhi Xi looked at the emaciated Wen Qingyu, his heart tightening.
"Zhang Gonggong, bring in another physician," Yan Zhi Xi ordered coldly.
Zhang Gonggong trembled, "Your Majesty, that physician was already the best in the palace."
Yan Zhi Xi slammed his palm angrily against the intricately carved bedpost.
"Convey my decree: if anything happens to Consort Yu, let the entire Imperial Medical Institute come to see me with their heads on a platter."
Wen Qingyu did not want to face this man. But upon hearing Yan Zhi Xi's words filled with murderous intent, her breath caught in her throat, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide.
She had caused enough trouble; she could not drag anyone else down with her.
Seeing this, Yan Zhi Xi was momentarily stunned before narrowing his eyes dangerously. He grabbed Wen Qingyu's bony arm and pulled her up.
"Wen Qingyu, you were pretending to be asleep!"
Wen Qingyu defiantly met his gaze, her weak tone laced with hatred, " Yan Zhi Xi, why take your anger out on others? Wasn't it you who turned me into this? Why pretend now?"
This statement infuriated Yan Zhi Xi to the extreme. At the banquet, he had still been concerned about this woman, and as soon as the event ended, he hurried over, only to be met with deception and mockery.
Yan Zhi Xi threw Wen Qingyu onto the bed, a storm brewing in his eyes. " Wen Qingyu, my patience is limited. Do not challenge my bottom line."
Her head hit the headboard heavily, causing a wave of dizziness. She gasped for breath, "You treat a person who poisoned you, Consort, with such 'tolerance,' saving her from the brink of death time and again. Do you even have a bottom line?"
"Shut up!" he growled, wishing he could strangle this woman.
"Or is it..." Wen Qingyu provocatively lifted her chin, "you can't bear to kill me?"
Can't bear to?
What kind of daydream was this woman having!
Yan Zhi Xi gritted his teeth, but a completely different smile surfaced in his eyes.
He playfully tilted her sharp chin upward. "It’s true I can’t bear to. Although Consort Yu is useless now, this body is still quite tempting."
After saying that, he leaned down and bit her pale lips as if venting his frustrations, the metallic taste of blood flooding his mouth instantly.
Wen Qingyu was taken aback and struggled fiercely. Little did she know that her desperate resistance only ignited the man's desire for conquest.
Yan Zhi Xi violently tore her clothes apart and bound her hands with the belt he had ripped off.
At the moment he entered her, he thought recklessly that he must have been poisoned by this woman to feel such desire for her.
Mu Xue Palace.
"Your Highness, please don't wait any longer. The Emperor is resting in Chenyu Palace," the maid said cautiously.
Wen Ruxue, who was combing her long hair, suddenly froze, her reflection in the mirror showing a fierce expression. "What did you say?"
The maid dared not speak again and knelt on the ground, only to be kicked away by Wen Ruxue.
Wen Ruxue gritted her teeth and muttered under her breath, "That shameless woman, Wen Qingyu, why hasn't she died yet!"
"Your Highness, should I go invite the Emperor over? Your Highness is unwell," the personal maid suggested to Wen Ruxue.
Wen Ruxue did not agree.
Ever since Yan Zhi Xi had expressed suspicion last time, she no longer dared to act as recklessly as before.
But that did not mean she would let this woman go.
She would make sure that Wen Qingyu completely disappeared from this world sooner or later.
