Part 1 - Yu Nu Jiao / Jade Slave / Enslaved By Love

Chapter 133 The Word 'Ji'

Yin Ji felt a sharp pain in his chest. He raised his hand to support the tree trunk, but his breathing was stagnant. What had he done...

He summoned Xie Yun to the palace, but he didn't let her live a peaceful day; he asked her to come to Shanglin Garden, but he couldn't protect her.

Even the people he sent out to rescue people gave up on her when they saw Xie Yun. How desperate she must have been at that time...

Yin Ji, what have you done...

The old wound on his chest seemed to be torn open again. The intense and sharp pain made his eyes black, but he was too lazy to even take a look. He just wanted to touch the word "Ji" carved by Xie Yun with his trembling hands.

But he was obviously very careful, but the moment he touched it, the bark that had been ravaged by the fire turned into black ash. Not to mention the complete word, not even a trace was left.

Yin Ji froze instantly, and he suddenly covered the tree trunk: "No, don't, Xie Yun, Xie Yun..."

He slapped the tree trunk hard, but no matter how hard he tried, it was useless. The word disappeared, just like its owner, it completely left this world.

His eyes suddenly went dark, and there was a cry of surprise around him. When he regained consciousness, the imperial physician was checking his pulse, and Cai Tianxi and Zhong Bai were looking at him worriedly.

"Your Majesty, are you awake? Take care of your body."

Yin Ji was a little confused. For a moment, he couldn't even remember where he was and what happened until he saw the black ash on his hands.

Oh, Xie Yun is dead.

"He vomited blood again, the emperor vomited blood again," Cai Tianxi suddenly screamed, "Imperial physician, come and see the emperor!"

Someone came to grab his wrist, Yin Ji pushed it away, he wiped the corner of his mouth a little confused, and it was indeed red.

Cai Tianxi's face was full of anxiety: "Your Majesty, you have to let the imperial physician take a look..."

Yin Ji pushed him away and stood up. He didn't think anything wrong on him, nor did he want to see the imperial physician. He just thought Cai Tianxi was noisy.

Vomiting blood won't kill anyone.

He staggered forward. He remembered that someone told him that Xie Yun's body was there. He had never been with Xie Yun properly since he entered the palace. Now, he had to go see her.

"Your Majesty..."

Cai Tianxi spoke again, but Yin Ji ignored him and sat down next to the charred body before speaking: "Everyone go down."

Now even Zhong Bai spoke: "Your Majesty, there are wild beasts in the forest..."

"Go down."

He was a little weak and didn't want to waste energy on talking. Fortunately, no one continued to pester him this time, and the surroundings soon became quiet.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the body in front of him. In fact, Xie Yun didn't know that he had secretly seen her many times when she was asleep, but he never touched her.

Afraid of waking her up, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

He didn't allow himself to have any feelings for this woman who betrayed her, killed him, and had no feelings for him.

Whenever his mind wandered, he would have an attack the next day. She would have an attack that was particularly severe...

Xie Yun, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I'm too stubborn, too selfish, it's just a life, I'll give it to you if you want it... Why do you treat me like this...

He raised his hand and gently stroked the cheek that couldn't see the face at all. The wound in his heart became more and more painful, more and more empty, but his hands were shaking more and more. Obviously everyone said that this was Xie Yun, but he was so close to her, why couldn't he feel a familiar breath or familiar traces from her?

He grabbed the charred hands and pressed them tightly against his heart, but his empty chest still couldn't get a trace of comfort, but instead seemed to fall into the abyss and never be free.

It turns out that there is such a big difference between living and dying.

No body temperature, no breathing, so cold that it makes people despair...

His emotions completely broke out at this moment. He leaned down and hugged the person tightly in his arms: "Xie Yun, don't die, I beg you, don't die..."

You don't know how important you are to me. You don't know that I fought hard to seize the throne just to get you by my side. I beg you, don't die, don't die...

Even if you want to leave, even if you want to go to southern Yunnan, don't die...

But no matter how much he screamed, the person in his arms didn't respond at all.

Yin Ji slowly froze and didn't move for a long time.

Everyone watched from a distance, no one dared to step forward, but Cai Tianxi was fidgeting: "Commander Zhong, is the emperor okay? He hasn't moved for several hours."

Zhong Bai shook his head. He didn't know that Yin Ji had lived in the Xiao family since he was a child. He knew very well that he was not a descendant of the Xiao family and would never be obsessed with anything.

He would give away his precious orphan copy at the word of the Xiao brothers; he never said a harsh word when the scripture he spent months copying for his deceased mother was torn up by Xiao Baobao...

He had been with Yin Ji for so long, and he had only seen him being persistent in one thing, that is, his marriage with Xie Yun. Although he was rejected in public, he stood outside the Xie family's door and waited for several months, from scorching heat to severe cold, from heavy rain to frost and snow, and he left three-inch deep footprints outside the Xie family's door.

Even when he was rescued back to the Xiao family with such serious injuries, he didn't say a bad word about Xie Yun. If it weren't for the Xie family's ruthless behavior, if he hadn't seen Xie Yun and the King of Qi get married...

Zhong Bai sighed deeply: "How could it turn out like this..."

Cai Tianxi also sighed. Who said it wasn't? He thought that the two people were so entangled that there would be a good result in the end, but who would have thought...

He glanced at Yin Ji from a distance again, and just when he was about to sigh, he saw that the person fell down silently.
