Ji Wushang looked at him, "Cong, it really is you, isn't it?"
"My king, it wasn't him!" He suppressed his anger, knowing he was truly unwilling to be a substitute!
He continued to take off his clothes, and then, shirtless, he sat on the edge of the bed, adjusted his position, and focused his gaze on Ji Wushang.
He couldn't help but reach out and wipe away her tears. "You shed a whole kilogram of tears every day, you know that?"
Ji Wushang was taken aback.
"Don't cry, okay?" His large hand stroked her face, his eyes warm.
Ji Wushang pouted, sobbed, and then pushed his hand away. "I want to see."
He sighed, then straightened his back. "I'm telling you, this little thing is a sword..." He froze for a moment.
Ji Wushang stared wide-eyed. "It's a wound from a dagger piercing straight in!"
Tuoba Heyan stared blankly at Ji Wushang.
Ji Wushang's tears flowed silently. Her gaze fell on Tuoba Heyan's eyes, her hand trembling. She reached out and removed the golden mask, revealing that familiar face in the air.
Ji Wushang looked at him with bright eyes, "I wanted to kill you, but you were so stupid as to teach me to stab you in the chest with a dagger! ... Cong..." She was speechless.
...
☆、309 I'll give you three days!
"That slightly larger wound is a scar left by the Demon-Slaying Sword. In the whole world, only you would be so foolish as to let me stab you, let me kill you, let me hurt you!" Tears streamed down Ji Wushang's face. She covered her lips, unable to believe it—it really was him! It was him!
Yes, it was Nan Xuzong who had these scars! She might not have been fully conscious at the time, but she absolutely remembered these scars on Nan Xuzong's body!
If the identical face, handwriting, technique, movements, and even his occasional gaze are not enough to identify him as Nan Xuzong, then how do we explain the wound? It's just that his personality has changed.
She had wondered what would happen if Nan Xuzong removed his forbearance and unleashed his domineering and kingly aura. Was that really the case?
Tuoba Heyan was surprised and disbelieving, but still said, "I was indeed injured before. This sword wound was truly caused by practicing swordsmanship."
Ji Wushang shook her head. "Then how do you explain what you wrote?" She took out the prescription. "You wrote this, didn't you?"
Tuoba Heyan took it and looked at it. "Yes. It's a pity you don't appreciate my kindness at all!" This was the prescription he had written for her, to try and ease her heart ailment. As he said this, Tuoba Heyan's voice deepened, and a hint of malice appeared in his eyes.
"Can you write 'A phoenix soaring through the heavens, startling the world with its fiery cry' for me to see?" Yes, she was filled with anticipation. It was him, it was Nan Xu Cong! He had finally returned to her side, hadn't he?
Tuoba Heyan was stunned for a moment. Looking at her expectant expression, he finally suppressed his anger, turned around, got out of bed, and immediately wrote eight characters on the desk.
She was so stubborn, insisting that she wasn't Nan Xuzong!
Is Nan Xuzong the only one who can give her warmth and love? Why can't Tuoba Heyan? The man is dead, yet he still clings to wishful thinking; it's driving him absolutely crazy!
In a short while, Tuoba Heyan had finished writing the eight characters. Just as he was about to pick them up and examine them closely, he heard a voice in his ear.
"You, you still say you're not Nan Xuzong..." Ji Wushang somehow managed to get to his side and almost fell to the ground, but he caught her and pulled her into his arms.
"If I say it's not true, then it's not true!" Tuoba Heyan was somewhat agitated. He would definitely find out the truth of everything, but before he understood everything, if she forced him to become the Nan Xu Cong she spoke of, her deceased husband, he would not be willing or happy!
"You never yell at me..." Ji Wushang looked at him, tears streaming down her face again. "Why, why would you do this to me! I admit, I haven't been good enough to you, but I love you, I've always loved you, I've always been waiting for you! Cong..."
"What a stubborn woman!" Tuoba Heyan picked her up and put her on the bed, then used acupressure to immobilize her. He was afraid that she would go crazy and go mad, and be sad and in pain. So, sometimes he would rather she just lie on the bed quietly.
Ji Wushang was unable to move, but tears streamed down her face as she cried out, "Nan Xuzong, Nan Xuzong!"
"Don't mention Nan Xu Cong to me again!" Tuoba Heyan turned his head angrily. "Let me tell you, just because they look exactly alike doesn't mean they can't be two different people! But I am absolutely not the Nan Xu Cong you're talking about, nor am I the twin brother of the Nan Xu Cong you're talking about! Princess Wushang, your delusions are too severe! I've had enough, you'd better wake up!"
Ji Wushang felt completely exhausted, both physically and mentally. He couldn't remember himself, and he had become a different person. What's more, he couldn't accept anything from his past!
Seeing that she was crying and not speaking, Tuoba Heyan could only go forward and stroke her black hair, but Ji Wushang immediately shouted, "Don't touch me!"
"If you're not him, don't touch me!" she shouted angrily, her face covered in tears and snot.
Tuoba Heyan's hand froze in mid-air. He pulled it back and said, "Once you've recovered, you can start serving me in bed!" He snorted coldly, immediately turned around, got up, put on his clothes, donned the golden mask, and left!
He had spoiled her far too much! To the point that she had become so audacious! Not only had she repeatedly challenged his bottom line, but she had also said such things! Had she truly forgotten that she was now a princess sent for a political marriage?
Ji Wushang stood there, completely stunned...
To serve the emperor in bed.
Haha, he actually said that he would start serving the emperor after he recovered his health?
Ji Wushang seemed to have run out of tears, sinking into that endless darkness.
She was so tired. He was alive, but he wasn't the one who loved her, the one who would have sacrificed his life for her. This man felt so unfamiliar, so strange, that it made her feel scared and terrified.
She couldn't accept that he would say those things to her.
However, Ji Wushang remembered that he had asked Hongfei and Cuiwu to invite Beigong Minhao, and he was determined to return to Miluo Palace!
Ji Wushang moved his body, looked at the sky, and realized that he had slept for three hours. Now, it was probably dinner time.
Ji Wushang's stomach rumbled. He was hungry. Ji Wushang sighed. It was dinnertime! Back then, whenever he was hungry, Nan Xuzong would always tell him to quickly make something delicious for him. He would affectionately hold him on his lap and serve him food.
Ji Wushang wiped away his tears.
Those days will never come again.
I will try my best to help Tuoba Heyan regain his memories, but how can I help him regain his memories in his current state?
Ji Wushang struggled to get out of bed, then looked around and saw his outer robe. He immediately went over, took it off, and put it on.
Just as Ji Wushang reached the doorway, she saw Tuoba Heyan push the door open and enter. Immediately, Ji Wushang hid behind the screen.
Tuoba Heyan went straight into the inner room, and when he saw that the bed was empty, he was shocked. "Princess Wushang! Someone come here!"
"Damn it!" Tuoba Heyan shouted, and quickly walked out of the palace.
Ji Wushang knew that he must have gone out to ask the guards about his whereabouts, so Ji Wushang immediately began to search for a place to hide in the palace.
Yes, she was terrified of this man. She knew he was Nan Xuzong, but he wouldn't admit it; he always believed he was the tyrannical, domineering, and aloof Prince Qingzhao, Tuoba Heyan!
What I need to do now is ask Beigong Minhao why he disposed of Nan Xuzong's body in that way, and why all of this happened. Is there any way to help Tuoba Heyan regain his original memories?
This isn't the real Tuoba Heyan, but Nan Xucong. However, he possesses Tuoba Heyan's memories but not Nan Xucong's. Where did the real Tuoba Heyan go, and what happened in between?
Ji Wushang clenched his fists, determined to find out the truth. And as for the women in Tuoba Heyan's harem, it was time for him to retaliate!
Ji Wushang looked around. There was nowhere to hide except for two things: First, the bath. But that wouldn't do. He'd been scared half to death a few days ago, and his body was too weak to stay underwater for long. Second, under Tuoba Heyan's bed. But if Tuoba Heyan slept there, he could only come out after Tuoba Heyan went to court the next day. And even then, he had to hide there without making a sound. Tuoba Heyan's martial arts were too formidable.
Ji Wushang made up his mind, and upon hearing footsteps outside, immediately crawled under the large bed.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Ji Wushang tried his best to cover his nose to keep his breath from being too strong.
Tuoba Heyan snorted coldly. He entered the palace, closed the door, and locked it.
Ji Wushang felt a sense of foreboding. He was certain that Ji Wushang knew he was still in the palace, and his anger seemed to be at its peak.
Ji Wushang was filled with apprehension, but having come this far, he had no choice but to endure it.
"He probably won't kill me, will he?" Ji Wushang pursed his lips. Die at his hands? Oh well, actually that's not so bad.
Tuoba Heyan walked very lightly into the palace. His sinister eyes scanned his surroundings. He was certain that he could see and hear anything that moved.
"Princess Wushang, come out! Come out for me!" Tuoba Heyan looked around and walked into the inner room. "I know you didn't escape. You're still here! If you're smart, come out and I might spare you!" Tuoba Heyan turned around, then turned back again, his eyes dark and wary.
"Princess Wushang!" His tone had turned cold. "I'll count to three! If you don't come out, I'll have no choice but to stop burning the Miluo incense for Huangfu Jun'an! In that case, his illness will never be cured!"
Ji Wushang was stunned, and she covered her lips. Huangfu Jun'an is your son! How could you bear to say such a thing?
Tuoba Heyan turned around and looked at the bed. He was stunned for a moment. This woman had actually crawled under the bed!
"One!" But then, he curled his thin lips and cruelly began to count.
Ji Wushang was stunned. Was he really serious?
"Two!" Tuoba Heyan narrowed his dark eyes. He had always underestimated this woman's abilities; she always possessed so many incredible qualities!
Ji Wushang gritted his teeth.
"Three!" Tuoba Heyan immediately spoke, stepping forward. "I will kill everyone in the Mi Luo Palace first, and then see if you come out!"
"No!" Ji Wushang crawled out from under the bed, calling out, "Cong, Cong!" and quickly ran out.
Tuoba Heyan turned around and saw the woman running up to him. She was a little dirty because she had crawled under the bed.
"I have said before that I do not want to hear the name Nan Xu Cong. How many times do I have to say it before you listen!" Tuoba Heyan glared angrily at Ji Wushang. "Look at you, you've gotten yourself all dirty!"
“Tuoba Heyan,” Ji Wushang looked at him, took a deep breath, and said, “Three days, please give me three days.”
"No!" Tuoba Heyan snorted coldly. He stepped forward and said, "It seems Princess Wushang is in good spirits! Why not have her serve you tonight?"
"You!" Ji Wushang stepped back. Even though he was Nan Xuzong, he felt like a completely different person! A tyrant, someone who only knew how to seize by force! How was he any different from Yiyun Shangcheng!
"What? Does the princess not wish to? Oh, right, I once said I would not force her, but do you know what the conditions are?" Tuoba Heyan stepped forward, his whole body radiating a fierce aura!
Ji Wushang felt his aura pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe. "I just want to investigate all of this, why won't you agree!"
"You've broken the rules of the game, Ji Wushang!" His warm breath was on Ji Wushang's face. Ji Wushang tried to lean back, but his large hand had already restrained her slender waist!
"You really like to run away." His tone was calm, but it carried endless anger. "Since you say that I am your ex-husband, then use your methods to serve me and make me happy!"
Ji Wushang was completely stunned. How could he have said such a thing! No, Nan Xuzong is definitely not that kind of person!
"Let go of me!" Ji Wushang pushed him away, but he immediately grabbed her and kissed her fiercely!
"Let go!" Ji Wushang wanted to punch him with her small fists, but after a few punches, tears streamed down her face. He was Nan Xuzong, how could she hit him... But he had humiliated her with his words, it hurt so much!
Ji Wushang's tears suddenly fell down. If he said he wanted it, if he forced himself on her, she would not resist anymore... She owed him, and she should repay him... He was Nan Xuzong, but the ridiculous thing was that he didn't remember their past, didn't remember how he cared for her!
Tuoba Heyan was somewhat shocked to see that she didn't struggle, but the restlessness within him made him want to explore her beauty. Little by little, he suddenly pulled her onto the bed and pressed his body against hers!
Ji Wushang was in tears, lying limp on the bed, completely at his mercy.
But when he turned back and kissed her eyes, he was shocked. Her eyes were blurry with tears, and her face was full of grievance. Tuoba Heyan felt a pang of pain in his heart. He lowered his gaze, and the next second, he closed her clothes again, pushing her away forcefully. "I'll give you three days! On the condition that you recover seventy or eighty percent of your strength!"
He strode out of the palace in a fit of rage.
Ji Wushang curled up on the bed, his shoulders trembling as he cried.
Three days. Ji Wushang took a deep breath, wiped away his tears, got dressed, and hurried out.
Tuoba Heyan stood there, watching her run back to the Mi Luo Palace, feeling truly bitter.
Ji Wushang returned to the Mi Luo Palace, and Hong Fei, Cui Wu, and the others immediately came forward to help her inside.
