Chapter 140 "Madman," He Yuncheng cursed
When he knew that Jiang Wanning was pregnant, he did exactly as He Yuncheng said, because they had a secret crush on each other. At that time, He Yuncheng's life or death was uncertain. He thought that He Yuncheng had been injured for him many times, so he wanted to leave the child to him.
Jiang Wanning was less than five months pregnant at that time, and he had been faking his death for more than half a year, so the timing didn't match at all. He arranged everything and even stirred up trouble in the palace to advance Jiang Wanning's pregnancy by two months.
"I have to thank you for this. The child is innocent. Thank you for saving him," He Yuncheng showed great regret and helplessness.
After hunting geese all day, he was blinded by geese. Xiao Yunjin admitted that He Yuncheng was better at pretending than him. "Don't worry, the baby is not born yet after all."
Xiao Yunjin's lips curled up into a mocking smile, "Oh! By the way, let's look at the time. Jiang Wanning is about to give birth. Do you want to go back or should I go back?"
This was said with great skill. Xiao Yunjin liked it very much and even thought that if He Yuncheng went back in his place, he would be able to meet Su Muxi again.
"I want to go back for you, too," He Yuncheng seemed not to notice the mockery on Xiao Yunjin's face, "but you came back from the dead and need to verify your identity. How can I help you?"
Why didn’t I realize that He Yuncheng was so hypocritical before? Xiao Yunjin was too lazy to deal with him. He put away his expression and stood up, his aura suddenly full of energy.
He Yuncheng took a step back unconsciously, feeling confused and uncertain. He thought he already knew Xiao Yunjin very well. Even if he couldn't learn 100%, he could definitely learn 90% of him.
But now he discovered that what he had learned was all deliberately displayed by Xiao Yunjin. Xiao Yunjin only needed one look to make him understand that a fake was just a fake after all.
He Yuncheng was unwilling to accept this. It was obvious that all of this should belong to him. His mother was the real Concubine Lan, and he was the real prince. Xiao Yunjin was just the child of a thief. Why should he have the right?
"Cousin, you should know my temper best. I am very vicious and I don't like others touching my things," Xiao Yunjin stared at him expressionlessly. "As for Jiang Wanning's matter, since we are brothers, I will let it go for now. If you do it again, don't blame me for being cruel."
He Yuncheng was extremely jealous and afraid of Xiao Yunjin for being arrogant and looking down on others. He came to the northwest with the intention of mobilizing the Tibetan soldiers in the Cangliang Mountains, but found that the token of command had been replaced by Xiao Yunjin.
The tiger talisman in his hand became a decoration. He could not move Xiao Yunjin's biggest bargaining chip. He was seriously injured several times for Xiao Yunjin and his life was in danger, but Xiao Yunjin treated him as an outsider.
He Yuncheng gritted his teeth, held back these doubts, and forced himself to face them. He raised a bitter smile and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help."
It was clearly a warning, but He Yuncheng took it as a favor and regarded all the betrayals as something he couldn't help.
Xiao Yunjin sneered and hooked his finger, as if He Yuncheng was a pet dog that could be summoned and dismissed at will.
He Yuncheng felt a chill in his heart and fear crept into his mind. He knew that Xiao Yunjin was warning him. He took two steps forward like an obedient watchdog.
Xiao Yunjin admired his ability to know the current situation and said, "I hope cousin, you really remember it and don't just pretend to obey." After saying that, he didn't even look at He Yuncheng, lifted the curtain and walked out.
With a clang, He Yuncheng kicked down the sword standing beside the bed, "Arrogant."
He Yuncheng slumped on the bed, gasping for breath, his back wet with sweat. He didn't want to admit it, but had to admit that he was no match for Xiao Yunjin in terms of momentum.
"Madman," He Yuncheng cursed. Xiao Yunjin had just warned him with a double meaning that he couldn't move the Tibetan soldiers in the Cangliang Mountains, and he couldn't move Su Muxi either.
This time, his plan was just a little bit short of replacing Xiao Yunjin. He thought he had no chance anymore, but now it seems that Xiao Yunjin also has a weakness.
Xiao Yunjin rode back on horseback. He wanted to see Su Muxi again before returning to Beijing.
He went over the whole thing from beginning to end and found that his life was quite sad. Except for Su Muxi when he was young, no one was sincere to him. Everyone wanted to kill him. He Yuncheng risked his life to save him many times just to win his trust.
His achievements were so great that he shocked the emperor. He became famous in one battle, and not only shocked the emperor, but also the Prince of Huaiyang.
The emperor used him to appease Prince Huaiyang and made him a spy to monitor Prince Huaiyang. Prince Huaiyang bribed him and let him be in charge of 150,000 soldiers. Prince Huaiyang thought he was a fool and wanted to use him to annoy the emperor.
Everyone is taking advantage of him, everyone is forcing him, he just wants to live, but it seems very difficult.
He thought He Yuncheng could be trusted, and even gave him the tiger talisman that saved his life. However, he didn't expect that he was the one with the biggest appetite. Now that he thought about it, when his heart-eating insect broke out, He Yuncheng was seriously injured because of him, and he suggested that he fake his death and return to Beijing to recuperate under He Yuncheng's identity.
These were all his plans to replace the emperor. What's more, he even gained the trust of King Huaiyang. After all, what King Huaiyang needed was just a chess piece that was easy to control. Jiang Wanning had seduced him countless times, and he must have given up on him, so he let He Yuncheng take his place, let Jiang Wanning give birth to a child, and use the emperor to control the princes.
Thinking of this, he touched the black jade on his chest, and the slight coolness soothed his disordered heartbeat.
It was all thanks to Su Muxi. Seeing how precious it was to Su Muxi, he wanted to snatch it away to play with her. Later, he accidentally found out that it was the seal for the Su family to mobilize the secret guards. He thought it was great. If such a thing was just thrown into the jewelry box, no one would be able to find it.
He didn't expect that he asked Cang Jue to make a trip and actually made a profit. Su Muxi is his lucky star.
The stars and the moon were shining brightly outside, and it was dim and warm inside the house. Su Muxi was lying quietly on the bed. Xiao Yunjin had been walking quickly in the night and had long since adapted to the darkness. He looked at the bulge in the quilt and felt at peace in his heart.
He threw a sleeping pill into the charcoal basin and stuffed an antidote into his mouth. There was no way because Su Muxi was too alert and he was afraid that he would be discovered if he moved.
The smoke curled up and dissipated in the room. Xiao Yunjin estimated that the time had come, then he walked to the bed and lowered his head to look at Su Muxi's sleeping face.
He reached out and stroked Su Muxi's face, kissed her forehead, then stood up and took off his clothes. He found it funny. He didn't expect that one day he would become that lecher. He chuckled, lifted a corner of the quilt, lay down beside Su Muxi, and gently rubbed her into his arms.
The room was still a little dark, and he couldn't see clearly enough. He wanted to light a candle, but was afraid of waking others. He stroked Su Muxi's long hair, pressed her into his arms, and smoothed her hair before he fell asleep with her in his arms, contentedly.
