Wei Yi looked at the 'resignation letter' in his hand. His heart was trembling and bleeding.
He looked at Ji Yunshu and said, "You want to stay away from me, so you made this decision, right?"
Ji Yunshu lowered her gaze and replied, "Your Majesty misunderstands. This subject is just tired and doesn't want to meddle in the affairs of the imperial court."
"You can choose not to get involved!"
Ji Yunshu's face was resolute. "I beg Your Majesty to grant my wish."
He cupped his hands and bowed!
Wei Yi's gaze darkened.
He didn't know when it started, but the relationship between him and Ji Yunshu had unexpectedly become that of a ruler and a subject!
He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. "Why do you have to do this? Even if you want to avoid me, you don't have to do this. "
His voice trembled.
"Yes!" Ji Yunshu suddenly raised her head and met his sorrowful gaze. A trace of disappointment flashed across her eyes. "You're right. I'm trying to avoid you."
"…"
Ji Yunshu said with tears in her eyes, "The current Emperor is no longer the Emperor I knew, and the current Wei Yi is no longer the Wei Yi I knew. How can I face him? How could he accept all of this? I have no choice but to hide. "
"Shu 'er …" Ji Yunshu immediately took two steps back. "Ever since we returned to the capital, I've been afraid to see you. I've been trying to convince myself that as long as I don't think about it or care about it, I can pretend that everything is still the same. I can pretend that you haven't changed, and we haven't changed.
There are some things that you can't deceive yourself about. "
Tears streamed down his cheeks!
Wei Yi's heart ached as he looked at her. Suddenly, he pulled her into his embrace.
"Shu 'er, I haven't changed. I am still the same Wei Yi. I am still the same Wei Yi who is willing to do anything for you."
Ji Yunshu did not evade or struggle. She was like a completely unconscious person, allowing him to hug her.
She only said, "We can't go back." "Yes, yes! Shu 'er, I only want you! " He roared with all his might and hugged her even tighter. "At first, I thought I could let go and let you be with Jing Rong, but I couldn't deceive myself! Shu'er, I can't lose you. I can't let you leave me again.
Side! "
Ji Yunshu remained silent.
There was no reaction at all.
Wei Yi released her and held her arm tightly. He resolutely said, "For you, I am willing to give up the entire empire to Jing Rong. As long as you want it, I can give it to you."
"I want the old Wei Yi. Can you give it to me?" Her voice was soft and filled with despair.
Ugh!
Wei Yi was astonished.
Ji Yunshu slowly withdrew her hand from his grasp.
She knew very well that the Wei Yi she wanted would never come back.
Thus, she once again cupped her hands in greeting and said, "This official has said what I should say today. This official doesn't want to say anything else. I only hope that Your Majesty will wake up soon."
With that, she turned around and left!
He could only stare blankly as she gradually disappeared from his sight.
His hands, which were in the air, slowly clenched into fists.
Perhaps no one could understand how heartache felt. Only he knew.
He staggered back a few steps and laughed in pain. Then, he took two steps up the stairs and flipped the table over.
Boom!
There was a loud noise.
The sound reverberated throughout the hall.
When the table was flipped over, the screen embroidered with a dragon also toppled over.
There was a series of crackling sounds.
Everything on the table was scattered on the ground. The things on the table rolled off the table and down the stairs. When the inkstone hit the ground, it instantly broke into two halves. The ink inside splattered everywhere and dyed the pile of vermilion memorials into a mess.
Hearing the noise, the eunuch outside hurried in with a frightened expression. He bowed to the side. "Your Majesty?"
"Get out!"
"If Your Majesty is not feeling well, this servant will summon an imperial physician."
Wei Yi smiled bitterly. "Not feeling well? Yes, I am not feeling well! "
The eunuch jumped in fright. "This servant will summon an imperial physician immediately."
Just as he was about to go …
Wei Yi suddenly burst into laughter. His whole body slumped weakly on the stairs.
He stared at the ground and said, "We are indeed sick. It's a mental illness! No one can cure it! "
"Your Majesty …"
"We can give her everything, but we can no longer give her what she wants."
Sorrow! Helplessness!
The eunuch was a smart man. He had been serving Wei Yi for almost a year. He knew that the Emperor was thinking about Lord Ji. He also knew that the 'she' the Emperor was talking about was Teacher Ji. However, as a servant, he could not say or listen. He could only stay in the palace for a long time by pretending to be a fool.
That night, Wei Yi ordered people to fetch several jars of wine and sent everyone out.
He did not like to drink, nor was he good at it. After a few cups, he felt a little dizzy.
"Shu 'er …"
He called Ji Yunshu's name over and over again.
He supported his head with one hand and held a cup in the other. His wrist gradually lost strength. His fingers loosened and the cup fell to the ground with a 'bang'.
The wine spilled!
The quilt was also split open!
At that moment, all sorts of memories from the past flashed through his mind.
That year …
Almost all of his memories were related to Ji Yunshu.
He thought that he would not be in so much pain when he was drunk. However, when his body was numbed by alcohol, his mind was sober. It was even more sober than when he was not drunk. The pain was magnified infinitely. It was like a knife cutting his flesh. It was painful, but he was powerless.
Outside the hall.
It was already nighttime. The lanterns outside the hall were lit one by one. In the distance, the row upon row of palaces were brightly lit, dazzling the eyes.
At this moment, Ji Wanxin put on a cloak and lit a lantern as she quietly came out of the Brocade Office.
She walked all the way to Fuyang Hall.
The weather was very cold at night. Her body was weak to begin with. Moreover, she had walked all the way from the Brocade Office to Fuyang Hall. Her body was already shivering from the cold.
Outside the door.
The eunuch who was guarding outside stopped her.
"Where are you from?"
She lowered her head and said, "I'm here to see the Emperor."
"The Emperor is resting inside."
"I'll have to trouble the two eunuchs to make an exception. I was personally summoned by the Emperor to the Brocade Office." She deliberately explained.
The two eunuchs looked at each other.
They pondered.
Then, they asked, "Are you the Miss Ji that the Emperor summoned to the palace?"
This was no longer a secret!
She bowed and said, "Yes."
Immediately, the two maidservants' expressions changed. They smiled and welcomed her, "So it's Miss Ji. Please wait outside for a moment. This servant will go in and inform the Emperor."
"Many thanks!"
The eunuch immediately pushed the door open and went in to inform the Emperor. The room was filled with wine bottles and the Emperor was sitting on one of them.
"Your Majesty?" she called out softly.
There was no movement!
"Your Majesty?" she called again.
