Military Advisor and Princess - Chapter 84
As Ao Jun listened to Ao Xue's plan, his face slowly darkened, and cold sweat poured down his forehead. This punishment was too harsh! How could his brother-in-law, an emperor, endure such humiliation? And just thinking about how his sister had looked at him as if she wanted to kill him...
She couldn't help but shudder. She knew she'd be played with by the snow sooner or later, and doing so would only make Jinxuan more heartbroken. Her refusal to accept him was already agonizing enough; this further torment would only add insult to injury. She couldn't bear it.
Ah! Just as she was about to refuse Xue's plan, Xue suddenly collapsed, and she had to quickly hug her.
At the same time, a loud 'bang' was heard as the door was kicked open, followed by two furious shouts: "What are you doing?" Then, the figures of Huang and Qing instantly appeared beside them, pulling them apart one by one.
"Ling Aojun, you won't be happy unless you've injured me beyond recognition, will you?" Jin Xuan grabbed Aojun's slender wrist, his veins bulging as he roared, his eyes bloodshot, beads of sweat still dripping from his forehead from breaking through her acupoints.
His behavior was crazy, showing none of the characteristics of the 'cold-faced war god' Prince Jin.
"No, Jinxuan, actually I..." She's a woman... I didn't want to hurt you! Aojun said urgently, but stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence, turning her head away coldly, her expression so calm that no one knew what she was thinking.
No, she couldn't tell him. Since she couldn't give Jinxuan a satisfactory answer now, what good would it do? He would still be hurt, and she would still hurt him. Perhaps it was better for him to misunderstand; he would be overwhelmed by the pressure of loving another man.
Giving up would be because he would despair knowing she had a 'lover'. Once he gave up and despaired, he would no longer be hurt by her.
Say it! Say it! Confess already... Ao Xue was held in Zheng Xuan's arms, completely unaware that Zheng Xuan, who had been red-eyed and ready to kill, was now staring at her thoughtfully. She was only focused on the awkward interaction between the two people in front of her, her hands clenched...
Quan, his face tense, kept cheering for Ao Jun in his heart. Judging from his expression, Jin Xuan had already confessed, and now only Jun remained. As long as Jun revealed her true identity as a woman, as long as she expressed her true feelings, then everything could be resolved.
Fu's happiness was fulfilled, and her plan no longer needed to be implemented...
However, just as Aoxue was filled with nervous anticipation, Aojun said something that almost made Aoxue faint, making her want to go up and knock open her head to see what was inside her clever brain.
“Actually, I don’t want to hurt you, but I ‘love’ her, and no one can stop me.” Ao Jun turned her head and looked directly into Jin Xuan’s pained eyes. She suppressed the soreness in her heart, pointed at Ao Xue, and said resolutely.
"You...you..." Jin Xuan couldn't believe Ao Jun would be so disregardful of his feelings, so resolutely declaring her intense love for another person right in front of him. His heart ached so much he was completely numb. He pointed at Ao Jun, his expression somewhat dazed, unable to utter a single word.
He remained silent.
Ao Xue rolled her eyes, helplessly watching how the atmosphere that was supposed to be a pleasant confession had turned into such a miserable scene: "My lord, I've never seen you so obedient before! Why are you so obedient now?! You're following the plan he just told me exactly!"
What are you thinking? Such a good man, why are you being so awkward? It seems that plan still needs to continue.
Ao Xue observed Zheng Xuan's every move and expression, and was deeply puzzled: Why was Qing'er's expression so strange? When Mo Jun said those words, she looked at him with such disappointment. Could it be...? Zheng Xuan suddenly remembered...
The strange feeling he had when he first met Mo Jun, and then looking at Qing'er's attitude towards her, he glanced at the indifferent Mo Jun and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: So that's why... Hehe... Her Qing'er is really cute!
"Qing'er, I have something to say to you. Come out with me." Zhengxuan deliberately put on a stern face and, ignoring Aoxue's objections, forcibly dragged Aoxue out of the room.
Only the two remained silent in the room, an eerie atmosphere lingering between them.
"My lord, Yuqing is already my brother's wife. You can't be with her anymore. Please let her go, okay?" Jinxuan was still making a last-ditch effort, lowering his voice and asking softly. He had already relinquished his male pride for her, only hoping she could feel his...
A heart full of love.
"It's impossible, Jinxuan. If you can let go of Xue... and Yuqing, then you can let go of me too. Stop clinging to this, please let go." Aojun firmly refused, but seeing Jinxuan's unsteady figure, she finally couldn't bear it and let go.
He softened his voice and persuaded her.
"No, it's impossible. I said I would never let you go, never, never... Ling Aojun, how could you be so cruel? Why are you forcing me to let you go? Why? Why..." Jin Xuan gripped Aojun's shoulders, his expression frantic.
He shook Ao Jun wildly and roared, having completely lost his mind.
"Jinxuan... um... um..." Aojun wanted to say something, but Ruran Jinxuan lowered his head and sealed her lips with his, sucking on them gently, as if she were a precious treasure.
Ao Jun's mind went blank, then a wave of bitterness washed over her: "Jin Xuan, I really don't know what to do about your application. I really want to accept, but I'm also so afraid that I'll hurt you even more, you know?" Xue said.
Yes, that's right. Falling in love with someone as heartless and cold as me is destined to bring pain. Why did you fall in love with me? Why are you as foolish as Yelü Ying? What am I supposed to do with you and Yelü Ying?
Ao Jun's pain was no less than Jin Xuan's. She wanted to refuse Jin Xuan's kiss, but she was powerless to do so, and in the end, she slowly responded to Jin Xuan's kiss.
Upon receiving Ao Jun's response, Jin Xuan was overjoyed and pulled Ao Jun even closer to himself, wanting to deepen the kiss. However, Ao Jun suddenly reached out and grabbed Jin Xuan's chest, breaking free from his embrace.
"Jinxuan, I'm sorry," Aojun said hoarsely, her back to Jinxuan so he wouldn't see her tears. After speaking, without waiting for Jinxuan to reply, she fled out the door as if running away. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would really agree to him and give him everything.
I told him everything.
"Jun, I said I wouldn't give up, you'd better remember that." Jin Xuan shouted at Ao Jun, who was rushing out of the door. His resolute tone was filled with deep sorrow, which brought tears to the eyes of those who heard it and saddened those who listened.
Ao Jun may escape this room, but can she escape her own heart?
Military Advisor and Princess Consort: Kyoto Chapter 62 - Leaving the Prince Jin's Residence
Beside the lotus pond in Prince Jin's mansion, the emperor, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, was pulling along a stunningly beautiful woman dressed as a servant. The woman was struggling incessantly, and it looked as if the emperor was doing something immoral.
"Ouyang Zhengxuan, what are you doing! Let go of me!" Ao Xue broke free from Zhengxuan's grasp and shouted angrily. She had wanted to matchmake Jinxuan and Jun, but why did this brat Zhengxuan have to drag her into this? She wondered how things were between Jun and Jinxuan now, and whether that stubborn Jun had finally made things clear with Jinxuan...
"Don't think about other people in front of me." Zhengxuan tapped Aoxue unhappily. Even though he knew Mo Jun's identity, he was still unhappy that his Qing'er was lost in thought about other people in front of him.
"I'll do whatever I want, hmph, I'll just think about my most beloved Jun, what can you do about it?" Ao Xue retorted fearlessly. Seeing Xiao Xuanzi jealous for her, she felt both happy and smug. Hmph, back when he had three palaces and six courtyards, she was always the one jealous of him; now it was his turn to be jealous. Although it was a bit like settling scores later, who told him to conspire with Jin Xuan to deceive her! So she would never admit that she was just bored and looking for trouble.
“You…” Zhengxuan pointed at Aoxue with veins bulging, then smiled elegantly, waved his sleeve, sat down on a rock nearby, and said casually, “I can’t do anything about it. You can think whatever you want! I will absolutely respect you.”
"Huh? You're not angry?" Aoxue was feeling smug when Zhengxuan said something like that. She was stunned for a moment, then asked incredulously.
"Don't be angry. Haven't you always talked to me about freedom? Of course I have to respect your freedom of thought." Zhengxuan looked like a reasonable and good husband, with a face that said, 'I respect you very much.'
"You... well! Ouyang Zhengxuan is indeed Ouyang Zhengxuan. Hmph, as expected of someone who hangs out with women, you actually saw through this. Hmph, tell me, how did you see through it?" Ao Xue first pointed at Zhengxuan in anger, then asked with a disdainful look and a slightly sour tone.
She was initially furious that Zhengxuan seemed indifferent to her being "friendly" with others, but when she saw his ambiguous smile, she suddenly understood. The only reason his attitude had changed so quickly—from anger to murderous intent, and now to indifference—was that he had discovered Jun's true identity. Indeed, back then he had a harem of women, constantly surrounded by different beauties. It wasn't surprising that he would recognize Jun as a woman. But the thought of him having had so many women still made her feel a pang of jealousy. Really, she was supposed to be the one jealous, not the other way around!
