Chapter 404: Don’t dare to prove your innocence
Is this person Shen Chengjing?
If it were Shen Chengjing, how could he be by the emperor's side?
Ji Qingyuan couldn't figure it out. She was frightened and her mind went blank.
Shen Chengjing took another step closer to Ji Qingyuan.
"Go away! You ugly thing, don't come over here!" Ji Qingyuan was so scared that she ran towards the emperor.
Originally, she wanted to throw herself into the emperor's arms, but in the end she didn't have the courage, so she could only hold the emperor's arm and kneel on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I'm scared. Who is he?" Ji Qingyuan's voice was as sweet as silk, and her little face was pale without any blood.
The emperor looked down at her, without a trace of pity in his eyes.
"Don't you recognize him? He was your former husband."
"Shen Chengjing?" Ji Qingyuan pretended to be shocked. "Wasn't he beheaded?"
"Your Majesty!" Shen Chengjing suddenly knelt down, "Your Majesty, please don't be fooled by this vicious woman! In the beginning, it was she who secretly remarried and drugged me, forcing me to sleep with her. She then made the matter a done deal. I am of low status and my words carry no weight. On one side is the County Magistrate's Mansion, and on the other side is the Huaiyang Prince's Mansion. I can't afford to offend either of them!" After Shen Chengjing finished speaking, he raised his hand to wipe away the tears that didn't exist at all.
Ji Qingyuan turned her head to look at Shen Chengjing, then immediately looked away.
Before, she had confessed to the emperor that she married Shen Chengjing because she wanted to change her fate. Who knew that Shen Chengjing was still alive and bit back at him in front of the emperor!
Now I don’t even know how to explain it.
I could only cry and shake my head, "Your Majesty, I have served you for so long, don't you trust me at all? I didn't drug him at all! He has been coveting me for a long time, and when he saw that I was the one marrying him that night, he immediately slept with me! Your Majesty, you are so wise, you will definitely not be deceived by Shen Chengjing's words."
"I will not be deceived by anyone's words. In order to gain my trust, Shen Chengjing dared to put a bucket full of charcoal directly on his head. Ji Qingyuan, do you dare?"
Ji Qingyuan's pupils shrank, she couldn't believe what she heard!
An iron bucket filled with charcoal...put on your head...
She couldn't even imagine that scene.
No wonder Shen Chengjing has become like this.
Shen Chengjing knew that Ji Qingyuan was afraid of death. She wouldn't even dare to use a knife to cut his skin, let alone an iron bucket full of charcoal!
I really don’t know how he could be so obsessed with her in his previous life!
Yes, he also remembered things from his past life!
That day, he was secretly brought before the emperor even though he should have been beheaded.
Of course he desperately begged for mercy from the emperor.
The excuse that Ji Qingyuan drugged him was originally a plot set up by the emperor to capture Ji Chuhe. He resolutely said this in front of the emperor, just to atone for his sins.
Originally, he was innocent too!
If Ji Qingyuan hadn't interfered in this life, he would still marry Ji Chuhe. When he recovered his memories of his previous life, he would definitely treat Ji Chuhe well! In this life, he would never have anything to do with Ji Qingyuan again!
Didn’t Ji Qingyuan just recover her memories of her previous life first!
Such a short period of time changed the trajectory of his life and made him what he is now!
He now has only deep hatred towards Ji Qingyuan!
He wanted to kill Ji Xinyan and cut her into pieces.
He also learned from the emperor that Ji Qingyuan did not dare to tell the emperor about her rebirth, but instead played a mysterious trick and said that she had the ability to predict the future!
In order to gild herself and attract the emperor's attention, she dares to say anything!
Shen Chengjing fainted after an iron bucket filled with charcoal was turned upside down on his head. He could not bear the torture and when he woke up, he remembered everything from his past life.
After waking up, the regret in his heart and the torture of his body almost made him unable to bear it, and he ended his life!
In the end, he failed to die. His strong desire to survive made him realize that he still wanted to live!
He wants to live!
Take back everything that originally belonged to you!
He was so cruel as to put an iron bucket full of charcoal on his head in order to gain the emperor's trust and to survive!
What made Shen Chengjing even more unacceptable was that after he woke up, the emperor asked him a question.
Ask him if he is willing to stay with the emperor.
At that time, he was really flattered!
You see, God is still kind to him!
He agreed without any hesitation.
Then he was dragged away and castrated!
He is now a eunuch!
Shen Chengjing looked at Ji Qingyuan angrily, his eyes were like a devil crawling out of hell!
Ji Qingyuan took one look and her body began to tremble like a sieve.
"Ji Qingyuan, you dare not prove that what you said is true." The emperor spoke again.
"Your Majesty, spare my life!" Ji Qingyuan grabbed the emperor's clothes and pleaded pitifully, "I love your majesty with all my heart and I can't bear to destroy my appearance."
"Your Majesty, Ji Qingyuan is just quibbling." Shen Chengjing pointed at Ji Qingyuan and added viciously.
"Eunuch Shen, Concubine Yue is still short of staff to serve her. From today on, you will stay here and serve her well." The emperor ordered in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty! Don't!" Ji Qingyuan's voice was extremely shrill.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will do my best to serve Concubine Yue." Shen Chengjing immediately bowed in response.
The emperor stood up and strode away.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Ji Qingyuan immediately stood up and chased outside!
She didn't want to stay here, didn't want to be in the same place with Shen Chengjing. Every time she looked at Shen Chengjing, it was her nightmare!
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. Please banish me to the cold palace! Or put me in jail! Just don't let me be with Shen Chengjing!"
Shen Chengjing felt happy when he saw Ji Qingyuan's desperate look.
As soon as he raised his hand, two eunuchs came forward and pulled Ji Qingyuan back.
"Concubine Yue, what were you shouting just now? Shen Chengjing has been beheaded a long time ago, and you were still shouting his name in the palace. Aren't you afraid that someone will pull out your tongue and make you unable to speak again?" After Shen Chengjing finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and laughed.
Ji Qingyuan's legs had no strength left and she collapsed to the ground, covering her ears in horror.
How I wish this was just a nightmare and everything in front of me would disappear as soon as I wake up!
She is still the Concubine Yue who is favored by the Emperor.
Shen Chengjing walked up to Ji Qingyuan and squatted down. "This servant greets Concubine Yue. Your Majesty, let me help you back to your room."
Ji Qingyuan opened the hand that Shen Chengjing extended to her.
"Shen Chengjing, what on earth do you want! I was supposed to marry into the Huaiyang Palace and become the main wife. I didn't despise you and insisted on marrying you, enduring everyone's ridicule! Not only that, I also fell in love with you. Even my mother lost her life to help you! Why do you hate me so much? You want to kill me!" Ji Qingyuan asked loudly!
