Chapter 141: Chess pieces, only one ending (first update)
After sending the Queen Mother away, Ye Wanwan took a breath. Today was really not a good day, as she met some heart-breaking people.
However, as if to prove that she could be even more unlucky, she started to have a fever that night and was feeling dizzy. When Qing Sha found out, she was almost feverish and confused.
The imperial doctor was invited to see her and prescribed medicine. However, Ye Wanwan did not feel better even after drinking it, and then her illness became more serious.
She was confused and ill for several days. She woke up and fell asleep again. Several imperial doctors wiped her sweat. Fortunately, Ye Wanwan finally got better.
It's not a serious illness, it's just an old problem that was suddenly triggered. The focus is not on the body, but on the heart.
After all, news of Ye Wanwan's illness reached the palace, and Zhao Yi personally went out of the palace to see Ye Wanwan.
Seeing Ye Wanwan like this, Zhao Yi also frowned: "What can't you think about? What did the Queen Mother say to make you so angry?"
She probably thought that Ye Wanwan fell ill because she was angry with the Queen Mother, but if you really think about it, it's not wrong.
"It's none of the Queen Mother's business, it's my own poor health."
Ye Wanwan felt much better, put on her clothes and stood up: "Since the Emperor is here, let's go to the next round. I haven't beaten you yet."
I can still remember to beat him, so it seems that this disease is not a serious problem.
Zhao Yi raised his sleeves: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Ye Wanwan changed her clothes and went out. The chess game had been set up. This was not the first time the two of them had played. They just made the move without saying anything.
You come and I go, competing on the chessboard.
Suddenly, Zhao Yi asked Ye Wanwan a question: "Xia has been harassing our border for many years, and now I want to send troops to attack Xia. What do you think I have a chance of winning?"
Ye Wanwan pretended to be stunned when she heard this, and then laughed: "I am a huge country. The Xia Kingdom has been harassing me for many years and I dare not enter. What can I do now? The emperor's cavalry has trampled through the mountains and rivers of the Xia Kingdom and rewritten the world.
.”
Zhao Yi's eyes widened when he heard this, and then he burst into laughter.
There may be people in the court who flatter, but Ye Wanwan is the first one who can say flattery so convincingly and without leaving any trace.
Ye Wanwan took the opportunity to make a move: "You lose."
Zhao Yi looked at the chessboard. In fact, it was not the end yet. He could only say that Ye Wanwan had the upper hand. It was okay for him to win, but he was happy at the moment and was willing to lose this game.
"Yes, I lost." Ye Wanwan's caution was so obvious that she didn't want to offend others.
After losing the chess game, he smiled even happier: "Tell me, what do you want?"
Ye Wanwan folded her clothes and said, "I want to visit my grandmother. After my mother passed away, my grandmother became seriously ill and I have never seen her again."
"Over the years, no matter whether I was good or bad, she would ask people to send her care and things from home, but she didn't say a word about her body. I was worried about her and wanted to see her."
If Ye Wanwan hated everyone else, then her only regret was the old lady of the Lin family. She had never been able to see her grandmother, who had always been very good to her, until her death.
She was already devastated when she heard the news of her grandmother's death. Not to mention going to see her, she just wanted to die and be with her.
Zhao Yi hesitated: "The Lin family is far away in Liyuan, the journey is long, and you are not in good health."
Ye Wanwan shook her head: "I'm not afraid. As long as you have the will, no matter how far you go, it's your return journey. This is my only request. Please grant it, Your Majesty."
Zhao Yi frowned: "It's not that I don't agree, it's just that it's a long way to go... Hey... Since you are filial, I will oblige you and send a team of forbidden troops to escort you back."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Wanwan quickly thanked her, and then thought of something: "I have left, and it is not appropriate to make it public. Just pretend that I am still here in this other courtyard."
Having achieved her goal, Ye Wanwan gave Zhao Yi a rare smile.
Zhao Yi couldn't help but feel moved, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold Ye Wanwan's hand: "I haven't been to this other courtyard a few times, please take me for a walk."
Ye Wanwan looked at the hoof in front of her, thinking that it would slip away in a few days: She can bear it!
He stood up and dodged naturally: "Then I'll go put on some clothes."
Putting on a thick coat, Ye Wanwan accompanies Zhao Yi for a walk, putting her hands in the armholes. Her body still needs it, so she naturally needs to keep warm.
In fact, there is nothing interesting to see in this courtyard, and the scenery is not as good as that of the palace.
Zhao Yi walked forward with his hands behind his back, and Ye Wanwan took a step back to follow him.
"Seeing as you are very used to living here, I didn't know you were a person who likes peace and quiet before."
Ye Wanwan: "It's better than being quieter than the palace. People's hearts are so complicated that I can't figure it out."
Zhao Yi turned back to look at her: "You have been in and out of the palace since childhood. You haven't made any progress in all these years?"
Ye Wanwan: "Probably."
She doesn't want to understand, but now she understands better than anyone else.
"You..." Zhao Yi looked at Ye Wanwan, feeling like he was looking at his sister for the first time, with a bit of pampering and indulgence. He had nowhere to reach out and could only touch Ye Wanwan.
Wanwan's head.
"The Queen Mother protects you, what are you afraid of? I will also be kind to you in the future."
Ye Wanwan paused, and Zhao Yi looked back, only to see her staring at him, with a calm look in her eyes that clearly said she didn't believe him.
Ye Wanwan turned around and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The matter was revealed in one sentence, but the atmosphere was about to reach freezing point in an instant.
She doesn't believe him!
And Zhao Yi thought about what happened before. Although he was wrong, he was the emperor...
Zhao Yi was angry, but he still decided to stay tonight. He went back for a stroll and read a book. After reading, he stayed for a meal. He obviously wanted to spend the night here, but in the end he was called back to the palace by an urgent message.
The border was defeated and the general was beheaded.
After everyone left, Ye Wanwan picked up the soup on the table and slowly took it into her mouth. This day was really torture.
Speaking of Zhao Yi, it is actually very easy for people to get distracted.
It doesn’t matter that he is young and handsome, the important thing is that he is an emperor. As an emperor, his power has given him a layer of brilliance and charm that is different from any man. When you look at him, you will definitely think of his identity and power.
For such a young and handsome emperor, even if they knew that he had a harem of three thousand, not many women would be able to resist his temptation.
Especially when he shows that he has affection for you.
But it was so good, but Ye Wanwan was the only one who didn't have a heartbeat, only a chill to her bones.
The imperial tenderness that once cost one's life but could not be sought is now easily available, but how can one get it?
Zhao Yi was kind to her today and seemed to be emotional, but it was just because she didn't sleep with him and never got him, so he thought about her deeply. But to him, her existence was as light as a fallen leaf. As long as she was moved and obeyed, it didn't matter.
It’s different.
She is still Concubine Ye, still one of the concubines, and still a chess piece that controls the Ye family, and chess pieces have only one ending.
If the emperor's love is taken seriously, death is not far away.
