Las cosas malas suceden a menudo

Capítulo 121

Zi Yi forced a smile and nodded. But inwardly, she was even more apprehensive. What this woman said was far more terrifying than what she did!

"Ziyi, do you know? Some people always like to act on their own initiative. They force me to do things I don't want to do without even asking my opinion." Qingyun stared at Ziyi, her eyes filled with sadness. "In this world, he's probably the only one who can force me to do things I don't want to do."

"Maybe he's doing it for your own good."

Qingyun sneered, "For my own good? Did he even consider that I didn't want to do it at all! He forced me into this mess, and he calls that for my own good?"

"He probably thought that after you did those things, you would be happy and no longer lonely."

A glint appeared in Qingyun's eyes, and her voice was very soft, "But he never thought that I could feel happiness just as much by his side. He was always so foolish, always doing so much for me all by himself, silently enduring sorrow. He taught me so many things. Without him, there would be no Qingyun. He taught me martial arts, how to disguise myself, the principles of life, made me smile, made me happy, made me joyful, cooked for me, made my wedding dress, dressed me as a man... but I never did anything for him. He will never know that only in front of him can I take off my mask and show him my most sincere and natural smile."

A gentle smile bloomed on Qingyun's lips.

"He always did so much for me silently. But he didn't know that I also wanted to do so much for him, to make him smile, and to make him happy because of me. Before, I always thought it was kinship, or the bond between teacher and student. But in the excruciating pain of the sword piercing my body, I suddenly realized that I could never leave him again. It wasn't kinship, it wasn't the bond between teacher and student, it was—love!"

Qingyun's eyes became increasingly moist. The candlelight flickered, and the water shimmered with a pale yellow light. In that instant, Qingyun possessed a breathtaking beauty.

"Actually, I was too selfish. Growing up in the royal family, I saw my mother often crying alone while my father indulged in pleasure with other concubines. At that time, I secretly vowed that I would absolutely find a man whose heart belonged only to me. That man's heart could only hold me, and could not accommodate any other woman. Moreover, I had to be the most important person in his heart. Now that I think about it, I was really selfish. But, I think that after experiencing so much, I can give up my standards for him. I can tolerate that in his heart, the patient comes first, and I come second."

As the water flowed smoothly, Qingyun's eyes gradually cleared.

She gazed at the woman in purple with a lingering sadness, her voice equally soft, "Li Ge, I've said so much. Do you still refuse to admit that you are Li Ge?"

The woman in purple sighed, then gently lifted her hand to reveal her face. Her purple robe fell away, revealing a face so handsome it inspired envy.

In the dim firelight, a man dressed in flowing white robes sighed softly.

"Woman, you have indeed regained your memories."

Qingyun stared intently at Lige, tears streaming down her face once more.

Li Ge looked at her helplessly and with affection, reaching out to gently wipe away the tears on her face.

"Woman, in my heart, you have long been number one."

Qingyun was taken aback. After a long while, a blissful smile bloomed on her face.

"Farewell Song..."

When Li Ge saw the smile on her face, he smiled back, and the two of them laughed with the innocent joy of children. The damp night air seemed to be infected by their happiness, becoming quiet and still.

Just then, the door was kicked open with a "bang!" The silence in the air was instantly shattered. All the laughter and joy vanished.

Jun Wuhen glared angrily at Qingyun, who was smiling broadly inside the room. Then, glancing at the elegant man in white, he immediately recognized him as the divine physician Li Ge.

He glanced down at the face and purple clothes on the ground, and a cold smile immediately appeared on his face.

He strode over, pulled Qingyun into his arms, and roughly pressed his hot lips against her thin lips, biting them hard, as if only in this way could he assert his dominance.

Qingyun frowned and pushed Jun Wuhen away with all her might.

"Jun Wuhen, what are you doing?!"

Jun Wuhen sneered, his blue eyes blazing with anger. "That's a question I should be asking you. What are you doing, you married woman?"

Qingyun pursed her lips and said coldly, "We didn't do anything! We were just old friends catching up!"

"Reminiscing?!" Jun Wuhen scoffed. "I think it's more like they're pouring out their feelings to each other." His gaze fell on Li Ge, and he sneered disdainfully, "I never thought that the dignified divine physician Li Ge would do such a despicable thing."

Li Ge frowned and said calmly, "I never thought that the dignified Martial Arts Master would eavesdrop on other people's conversations."

Jun Wuhen raised an eyebrow, looking at the indifferent man before him. If he weren't a rival for Jun Wuhen's affections, he would admire this man greatly. Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in this world.

"Hmph! I never imagined that the revered physician would stoop to be a maid in such a small palace. Old Man Juechen has truly misplaced his trust! I never thought his disciple would use his three wonders for this."

“Why not?” Li Ge raised an eyebrow indifferently. “I not only healed the sick with my master’s medical skills but also cured her disfigurement; I taught her my master’s lightness skills; I used my master’s beauty skills to their fullest potential; I am worthy of it!”

Jun Wuhen trembled, the blue light in his eyes paused, and then disappeared silently.

"You cured her disfigurement?!"

Li Ge nodded, "Yes, I healed her disfigurement!"

The candlelight flickered in the room, casting long, long shadows of them. After a long while, when Jun Wuhen's gaze fell upon Qingyun's fair and smooth face, his body trembled slightly. But when he saw the tear tracks on her face, he couldn't help but recall what he had just heard, and the blue light flashed again.

Jun Wuhen coldly shouted, "Guards! From today onwards, no one is allowed to approach Madam without my permission! And Madam is not allowed to step out of this room! Furthermore, from today onwards, Ziyi will no longer exist in the Li Palace!"

Having said that, Wuhen didn't even glance at Qingyun and Lige before turning and leaving.

Volume Two: Fate Leads to a Separated Palace, But a Happy Marriage is Born; Li Jing and Li Jing (Part

The palace has fallen into another slump!

And it was a cold, low tide!

The lord, who always doted on his wife, actually... actually put her under house arrest!

These past few days, everyone in the palace has been living in constant fear and unease. They are doing everything with extreme caution, for fear of making a mistake and incurring the Lord's wrath.

Jun Wuhen has been hiding in his study these past few days, drowning his sorrows in alcohol.

Xiao Qing lingered outside the study. She desperately wanted to go in and take care of the Lord, but Jun Wuhen had decreed that the study was a restricted area and no one could enter without a warrant.

Xiao Qing knew that the Lord and his wife had quarreled again, but she didn't know why. She also didn't know why her sister in purple had been expelled from the palace. But none of that mattered. What mattered was that the Lord was here, overeating and drinking, and seemed depressed. She was truly worried that something might happen to him!

Xiao Qing continued to linger outside the door, completely ignoring the two fierce-looking guards.
