Chapter 165 The Queen Who Used as a Shield in a Good Pregnancy Novel (5)
Looking down at Li Yanxiu, who was lying on the dragon bed in a disheveled state, Le Yan felt the hatred in her heart dissipate and felt relaxed.
The original owner hated the scoundrel emperor who ruined her life, so of course she couldn't let him get away with it.
After thinking for a moment, Le Yan bent down, getting closer to Li Yanxiu, and smiled as she stretched out her hand, waving her slender fingers in front of his eyes, "Does it hurt a lot?"
She asked herself and answered, "It must have been very painful, considering you were castrated at such an advanced age. It must have been several times more painful than for those young eunuchs."
Le Yan didn't actually understand whether castration was less painful for older or younger people; she was just saying it to mock and provoke Li Yanxiu.
At the same time, it was also telling him that he would be castrated, and that it was all her doing.
Li Yanxiu, who had been distracted by Le Yan's fingers, realized what she had said and his eyes widened in fury.
"It's you?!"
"Why are you treating me like this!"
Could this person who impersonated Sun Leyan be one of his enemies?
Did he hurt her?
Li Yanxiu felt both hatred and confusion, but all his complicated emotions vanished when he met those almond-shaped eyes filled with disgust.
His spirits sank, and he leaned weakly against the edge of the bed.
Le Yan straightened up and sighed, "Why do you ask me? I'd like to ask you what gives you the right."
Did Sun Leyan kill your entire family in your past life? Why did you treat her like that?
"It's clearly your own fault for not being able to have children, what does it have to do with her?"
"You're something else! You've set up a shield for yourself, pushing all the blame onto her while you enjoy the good reputation all to yourself, even creating a reputation for being a deeply affectionate emperor. How could you be so clever?"
Li Yanxiu remained silent, simply listening to Le Yan's words without offering any rebuttal.
Only when Le Yan stopped did he sneer and say, "So it was for Sun Le Yan to take revenge on me."
He sneered, "I am the emperor, her husband. She should give everything for me and bear the blame for me!"
"Snapped!"
Before Li Yanxiu could finish speaking, Le Yan had already slapped him across the face.
She used all her strength and slapped Li Yanxiu's head so hard it tilted to the side. In the blink of an eye, a red handprint appeared on his face.
Li Yanxiu winced in pain, pressed his tongue against his cheek, and looked at Le Yan with his blood-red phoenix eyes, then suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"Ah."
"I will not hold it against you, but don't be too presumptuous."
Li Yanxiu raised his head and touched his stinging cheek. He half-closed his eyes and called out loudly, "Gao De!"
Li Yanxiu pondered to himself that he still needed to recover from his injuries, so he shouldn't bother with this woman for the time being. He should first have Gao De lock her up to prevent her from escaping.
He never expected that he wouldn't be able to call anyone in at all.
No matter how loudly he called for people, Gao De, who was waiting outside the hall, could not get in.
"Lord Wen, could you please move your dagger to the side?"
With a dagger held to his neck, Gao De chuckled awkwardly, showing no intention of making any rash moves.
Although the emperor kept calling him, and the anger in his voice was becoming more and more obvious, his life was now in someone else's hands, so in order to protect himself, he decided to ignore the emperor for the time being.
Moreover, there is only the Empress in the palace. No matter how bold the Empress is, she would never commit regicide. Therefore, the Emperor should be fine, and he should take care of himself first.
Gao De, a wise man who knows when to yield, and Wen Songzhi, not minding treating him well, moved the dagger away a little, looked at Ying Yi, and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
Let's see if Her Majesty the Empress has anything she needs them to do.
Yingyi nodded silently, then turned and went into the hall.
Gao De watched quietly, his eyes darting around, a slight sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.
Why did he feel that his thinking just now was not quite right? It seemed that the emperor was about to be finished?
Your Majesty the Empress... Could it be that you're really so audacious as to plot regicide?
Gao De felt a pang of sympathy.
Inside the hall, Yingyi appeared beside Leyan like a shadow. The first thing he noticed was not his emperor master, who was almost dead, but Leyan's right hand hanging by her side, which was bright red.
His eyes turned cold, and he quickly grasped Le Yan's hand, taking out the medicine he carried with him to apply to her wounds.
He then whispered, "Your Majesty should prioritize your health. I will take care of everything for you."
For example, something like slapping the emperor could be done by him or Wen Songzhi; there's no need to do it yourself, as it would be a case of hurting the enemy a thousand while hurting yourself eight hundred.
Upon hearing this, Le Yan couldn't help but glance at him sideways, feeling that he wasn't a good person either. To say such things in front of the emperor, was he afraid that the emperor wouldn't know that he had decided to switch allegiance?
However, Le Yan didn't say anything. Anyway, it didn't matter if he wasn't a good person, as long as he was her person.
While they were happily applying the medicine, Li Yanxiu was about to vomit blood from anger.
Li Yanxiu coldly watched Ying Yi holding Le Yan's hand and said resentfully, "What a shadow guard! He can't even recognize his master!"
Ying Yi was stunned for a moment, but looked at Le Yan, withdrew her hand somewhat humbly, and was about to kneel down before Li Yanxiu.
Le Yan's eyes flashed, and she was slightly speechless. This familiar method made her think of who had used it before.
Even though her mind was wandering, it didn't stop Le Yan from following Ying Yi's lead and grabbing his hand in front of Li Yanxiu, preventing him from kneeling down to Li Yanxiu.
Turning back to look at Li Yanxiu, he said coldly, "Master? You dare to say that?"
She raised her hand and ripped off the human skin mask from Ying Yi's face, revealing a face exactly like Li Yanxiu's. He was so shocked that his eyes widened. "Insolence!"
how come? !
Shadow One's face...
Li Yanxiu suddenly remembered that he had a twin brother.
He was panicked. Wasn't it said that his younger brother was strangled to death at birth?
How is this going?
Li Yanxiu stared at Ying Yi, gritting his teeth as he asked, "Who exactly are you?!"
Ying Yi raised a pair of phoenix eyes that were exactly the same as Li Yanxiu's, and looked at him with full of mockery, "What does Your Majesty think?"
Why is it that only one of the twin brothers bears all this pain, while the other, completely unaware, enjoys everything beyond his reach?
This is not fair!
At this moment, Li Yanxiu was already in a panic, and even guessed the purpose of Le Yan bringing Ying Yi to him. He reached out to Le Yan with trembling hands, "Empress, you... what do you want to do?"
Le Yan smiled politely: "You are the Emperor, what can I do?"
