Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 914: Marrying on Behalf of Others 9

Two months passed quickly.

That day, King Wu received a letter inviting him to go to Wangyue Tower.

The letter was naturally written by Jiang Zhihuan, and Wangyue Tower was the restaurant that King Wu often took Jiang Zhihuan to.

King Wu was very conflicted. His reason told him that he should not go to the appointment, but his heart was not controlled by reason, so in the end, King Wu still followed his inner thoughts and went to Wangyue Tower.

"Your Majesty."

When King Wu pushed open the door of the box, what he saw was a picture of a beautiful woman shedding tears, which made his heart tremble. After all, the lethality of white moonlight has always been great.

King Wu clenched his fists and walked into the box, but it took a lot of willpower for him to sit down on the chair with a cold face, and he didn't try to coax Jiang Zhihuan with heartache: "What on earth do you want me to see you for? You can't ask me to see you crying, right?"

"Oh!" King Wu sneered, "Jiang Zhihuan, how dare you cry in front of me? You must have forgotten the shame you brought upon me when you ran away from your marriage!"

"Your Highness, I know that my escape from marriage caused you great harm, but..." Jiang Zhihuan covered her face and cried bitterly. The brokenness of her crying almost broke the cold face of King Wu. "I know that no matter what I say now, Your Highness will not believe me, but even so, I still want to defend myself."

"Back then, I was young and ignorant. When the imperial decree of marriage was issued, I was looking forward to marrying the prince with great joy. However, I could not stop the villains from taking advantage of my youth and ignorance and having them deceive me. This is why I made a decision that I regret for a long time."

"What you mean is that the reason why you eloped with that poor scholar was because of someone's plot." King Wu frowned slightly, and suddenly remembered what Jiang Chunxi said on his wedding night.

Could it be that Jiang Chunxi was right?

If King Wu had not investigated everything about Jiang Chunxi's life in the Jiang family from childhood to adulthood, even if he believed Jiang Chunxi's words, after hearing what Jiang Zhihuan said, he would probably still be led by the nose and subconsciously believe her words.

Unfortunately, he already knew about Jiang Chunxi's life in the Jiang family from childhood to adulthood, so naturally he also knew about Jiang Zhihuan's status in the Jiang family from childhood to adulthood.

Therefore, whether it is Jiang Chunxi or other people in the Jiang family, there is no possibility that anyone would dare to plot against Jiang Zhihuan.

"Your Highness, please stop asking." Jiang Zhihuan looked at King Wu with tears in her eyes. The affection in her eyes could almost drown King Wu. "What's the use of pursuing the person who plotted against me now? After all, the matter is done. That person is still someone Your Highness cannot let go of. So even if I tell Your Highness the truth about what happened back then, what can Your Highness do?"

Although Jiang Chunxi was not mentioned in every sentence, Jiang Zhihuan's words expressed one meaning, that is, Jiang Chunxi was plotting against her.

"I only hate myself for being young and ignorant and being fooled by that man. I missed such a good man like the prince. I should have died outside, but I was unwilling to do so! I was unwilling to not see the prince for the last time, so I shamelessly returned to the capital, just hoping to see the prince for the last time."

"Now that I have finally met the prince, my wish has been fulfilled. I can now walk the path I should walk without any worries, and let the world completely forget me, the woman who brought you a stain. This is the only thing I can do for the prince," Jiang Zhihuan looked at King Wu with deep affection and despair. "If there is an afterlife, I hope to continue our relationship with the prince, and I will never let the prince down again."

"After going through so many things, I can finally see my heart clearly. In fact, the person I love in my heart has always been the prince. Only a man as upright as the prince can enter my heart. It's just that I realized it too late. Now I am a broken flower and a withered willow. I don't even have the qualifications to silently watch over the prince. Only death can repay the prince's sincerity to me."

King Wu didn't believe Jiang Zhihuan's words at all. After all, Jiang Chunxi had not brainwashed him in vain over the years. But the same thing went, Bai Yeguang's lethality was just that great. Especially since Jiang Zhihuan was not just Bai Yueguang, she was also the mole in King Wu's heart.

"You don't have to do this." The King of Wu couldn't control himself anymore. He stood up and walked behind Jiang Zhihuan, hugging her in his arms. "You know that I have you in my heart, so why do you say such words to hurt my heart?"

Jiang Zhihuan's eyes flashed with pride, but her voice was tearful as she said, "My Lord, to hear you say such words, I have no regrets in my life. I didn't intend to live again when I came back this time. If it wasn't for wanting to see you one last time, otherwise... otherwise I would have ended my life outside with a white silk scarf."

"Your Highness, I regret it!" Jiang Zhihuan cried bitterly, "Why? Why did God torture us like this? We clearly loved each other, and we were born to be an enviable couple. But because of the evil deeds of a villain, I was blinded and my mind was blinded, so we can't be together."

"Your Highness, you have no idea. Over the years, whenever I think of my foolish decision, I wish I could just... I wish I could just end my life and let the foolish me disappear from this world."

"It is my longing and obsession for the prince that has kept me going until now. Now that I have seen the prince, the breath that supported me has dissipated. I can finally walk the path I should walk without any worries."

Even though he knew Jiang Zhihuan was lying, King Wu couldn't help but feel distressed at this moment: "Don't talk nonsense, I will never allow you to leave me again. Since we are a natural match, we should be together, instead of punishing us by separating us because you made the wrong choice in the past."

"Zhihuan," King Wu stroked Jiang Zhihuan's face and said affectionately, "Believe in me. If you really love me, then you should believe that I love you too. How could I, who loves you so deeply, care about the choice you made in a moment of confusion?"

"My Lord," Jiang Zhihuan broke down and burst into tears. She hugged the King of Wu's waist with both hands and buried her face in his waist. "Why are you so good? How could I, Jiang Zhihuan, deserve such deep affection from you?"

"Okay, stop crying," King Wu said with concern, "You keep crying like this, and you're almost breaking my heart."

It was impossible for Jiang Zhihuan to stop crying just by King Wu's coaxing. Instead, she had to wait for a long time before she burst into laughter.

But then she said worriedly, "My lord, what about Chunxi? She finally got her wish and married you. How could she agree to hand over the lord to me?"
