Quick Wear: After being conquered by the male protagonist, he said I was sick

Chapter 791: Green Plum Drunk (29)

Cheng Hui tidied himself up, wrote a prescription, and handed it to the maid: "Could you please get me some medicine?"

The maid smiled slightly and said respectfully, "Yes, please wait a moment."

The leader said that Young Hero Cheng should be treated the same way he was treated, and that he could come and go freely in Black Wu City.

The maid took the prescription and gracefully went out. When she returned with the medicine, Cheng Hui picked and chose from the medicine, grinding off some of the ingredients she wanted to make a paste to apply to her body.

Just as he finished wiping, a maid came and knocked on the door: "Young Master Cheng, the leader has returned and is waiting for you to dine at Tongju Restaurant."

Cheng Hui, who had been shameless for so many years, felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly put the things away: "Mm."

...

Tongjulou.

It is the tallest and most magnificent building in Black Wu City. Standing on the top, you can overlook the entire Black Wu City.

When Cheng Hui was led upstairs, Jiang Que was talking to someone inside.

"Amitabha."

"Benefactor Cheng, how have you been?"

Cheng Hui frowned, recognizing the man: "Brother Gu?"

The monk in front of me had a shaved head, wore a monk's robe, held a string of Bodhi beads in his hand, had clear eyebrows and bright eyes, and his lips were red without any makeup. After being ordained, his features were magnified even more. He seemed ascetic, but in reality, he could easily seduce you and leave. He was definitely a demonic monk.

Seeing that he had actually shaved his head, Cheng Hui felt a mix of emotions.

The last time they met was three years ago at that teahouse.

The argument didn't turn out very pleasantly.

wrong.

He was the only one who was unhappy.

The two were very happy.

Just two days ago, Jiang Que explained that Gu Feibai was considered his subordinate because he had gone to become a monk to chant sutras that day because he had been too talkative.

That's how it is.

Gu Feibai became a monk.

It's also related to him.

Cheng Hui was puzzled.

Cheng Hui remained silent.

When Cheng Hui came upstairs, Jiang Que, who had been sitting and listening to Gu Feibai speak, got up when he saw him arrive. He took Cheng Hui's hand and led him to the dining table, which was full of food, still steaming, so it was probably just served.

Jiang Que set out a bowl and chopsticks for Cheng Hui: [Brother, please eat first. I need to discuss something with your sworn brother.]

Hearing Cheng Hui's thoughts, Cheng Hui, who had been led to sit next to Jiang Que, glanced up at him. The man who was serving him food then kissed Cheng Hui's slightly upturned lips, his eyes softening with a tender smile: "[You've taken a bath, brother smells so good.]"

Cheng Hui was blinded by that laugh.

Hearing his thoughts, she blushed again.

There are still people...

But no one else can hear Jiang Que's true feelings.

Cheng Hui didn't say anything, and just kept eating his steaming meal with his head down.

Gu Feibai, who was watching from the side, looked at it as if he had seen something dirty. He closed his eyes, quickened the pace of the Bodhi tree he was playing with, and muttered, "Amitabha, Amitabha."

His head was quite bright at that moment.

Jiang Que and the others continued their conversation.

Cheng Hui sat to the side eating and listening. The gist of what they were saying was that the emperor was ostensibly going to Gu Feibai's place to cultivate himself as a Buddhist monk, but in reality, he was recruiting soldiers and horses there.

In particular, knowing that Kong Xuan, also known as Gu Feibai, is the infamous leader of the Destroying Heart Sect in the martial arts world, they wanted to recruit him to fight against the Crown Prince.

Gu Feibai feigned surrender, and according to the emperor's instructions, he would randomly select a trustworthy person within the sect to succeed him as sect leader, while retaining actual control. He intended to gradually fade from the public eye.

To prevent the suspicious crown prince from discovering anything amiss.

During these three years, Gu Feibai enjoyed the emperor's deep trust, and he and the emperor discussed every day how to kill the crown prince and regain power.

Once the matter was accomplished, the emperor appointed him as the Imperial Preceptor.

And that day has come.

The emperor abdicated, and they took action on the very day the crown prince ascended the throne.

It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs.

The emperor ate both his wife and son.

When he was a prince, he used Jiang Que's mother's good reputation to gain the support of the people.

After becoming emperor, he married a noblewoman as his principal wife to consolidate his power. However, he was not capable enough and was betrayed by the empress. Seeing his son gaining power, he had his son fight against the empress while he retreated to the background. After his son purged the court and eliminated the empress's faction, he killed his son and continued to be the emperor, continuing to play the role of someone who deeply loved his wife but lost his beloved son.

Cheng Hui had never learned about the story behind the struggle for the throne. He only thought that Jiang Que was avenging his mother and that he was the rightful heir, so it was only a matter of time before he sat on the throne. However, he did not expect that the emperor had no intention of handing over the throne to anyone. He had established a crown prince early on, which was also a way to make him the empress.

Enemy from both sides.

If the crown prince isn't ruthless, he will be devoured by these wolves in human skin.

In the vast imperial court, he had no one he could rely on. Even the Liu family, who were desperately protecting him, were actually the emperor's people.

They protect him only because he is the crown prince, the future emperor who will inherit the throne.

The Liu family, however, only supports the orthodox tradition.

What they didn't know was that although Jiang Que was made crown prince, the emperor did not intend to let him ascend the throne alive.

The emperor... deceived everyone.

All he ever cared about was power.

Jiang Que's mother, the Imperial Concubine, likely died because she knew something.

...

"Amitabha, good, good, good."

The emperor planned to use the people of the Destroying Heart Sect to surround the palace. Even if these martial arts practitioners died, there was no need to feel sorry for them.

The martial arts world should not interfere in the affairs of the imperial court. To be able to sacrifice oneself for the greater cause is a worthy death.

As it turned out, the emperor never expected that from the very beginning, this whole scheme was orchestrated by his good crown prince just for him.

If the emperor were to harbor even the slightest greed, he would face utter ruin.

So his decision to have Gu Feibai become a monk wasn't simply because he disliked Gu Feibai for talking too much.

As Cheng Hui ate his meal, a pang of heartache flashed in his eyes as he looked at the person beside him who wasn't even nineteen yet, but had experienced hardships that others his age had never gone through.

The man felt his gaze and turned to look at him.

Having said almost everything, Gu Feibai saw the two of them so affectionate that he wished he could kiss them right away, which made the monk even more eager to join in.

If I, the monk, hadn't intervened, would you two have been able to kiss so quickly?

Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha.

Gu Feibai chanted Buddhist mantras, twirling a Bodhi seed in his hand, and told them to stay upstairs while he left the troublesome place first.

To avoid seeing things that monks are not allowed to see, which could ruin their spiritual practice.

No sooner had Gu Feibai left than Jiang Que kissed Cheng Hui. Cheng Hui dropped the chopsticks she was holding onto the table, and Jiang Que pulled her over to sit on his lap and kissed her.

After the kiss, both of them were breathing heavily and were not calm, so they just held each other to calm down.

Jiang Que, holding Cheng Hui's hand, suddenly asked him, "Does it still hurt?"

Cheng Hui knew what he was talking about. She stared at the wound on his lip that she had bitten a couple of days ago. Because of the kiss just now, it was now so red that it looked like it was about to bleed.

Cheng Hui coughed lightly: "It's alright, I applied some medicine before I came, but tonight... I can't."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Que lowered her eyes and smiled, took his hand, and nodded: "Mm."

Jiang Que: "Are you full? Do you want to take a walk and inspect your future husband's territory?"

Speaking of this, Cheng Hui asked again, "We grew up together and have hardly ever been apart. When did you build the Destroyer of Hearts Cult behind my back, and even have such a large city?"

He still pretends to be soft and helpless by his side, making him worry every day that his naivety might lead to being deceived. He's afraid of thunder, so they sleep together because he's afraid of bugs. Every time he takes him out, he always carries a lot of insect repellent. He's not in good health and even hates taking bitter medicine, so he has to coax him to take it.

Some of Zhao'er's previous obedient behavior was all an act. Sitting in Jiang Que's lap, Cheng Hui rubbed against him. He saw the man's breathing quicken, his face tighten, and his gaze towards Cheng Hui was like a huge black vortex, trying to suck him in. Then, considering something, he pulled Cheng Hui and sighed, "Stop fooling around."

Feeling Jiang Que's presence, Cheng Hui hugged him tightly and called out to him softly and affectionately, "Zhao'er... I've missed you so much all these years."

Whenever he was going through a tough time, he wanted to go back and see the place, just for a glance, to bring himself some sweetness.

But I'm also afraid of getting too sweet, and I'm reluctant to leave.

I can only secretly miss you in my heart.

The longer time went on, the stronger his affection for Zhao'er became, and he could not let go of her.

Perhaps because he had endured too many hardships, even now, holding this person in his arms, he still felt like he was dreaming.

I love her so much, I love Zhao'er so much.

The thought that he also liked her and had gone to great lengths to deceive her made Cheng Hui unable to get angry, even though she had been tricked.

Otherwise, why wouldn't he lie to others?

He just likes me.

I've liked it since I was a child.
