NFBE Chapter 148 Murder?
Chapter 148 Murder?
Although Yi Luo was unwilling, she was still forced to nod reluctantly under Jiang Qingyan's tyranny. "Fine! I'll go see him after I finish eating! I'll go talk to him every day for the next two weeks! Is my husband satisfied?"
Jiang Qingyan chuckled softly, "I knew my Yiluo darling was the most obedient. Be good, after dinner, your husband will reward you with a sweet kiss~"
Yi Luo is always targeting Yuan Lie, and over time the two will definitely grow apart. It would be better to take this opportunity to let Yi Luo and Yuan Lie develop a relationship, and perhaps they can reconcile...
Yi Luo pouted and complained, "My husband always bullies me..."
But secretly, I chuckled to myself hundreds of times. My husband will reward me with a sweet kiss soon, hehe~
After lunch, Yi Luo pulled Jiang Qingyan into his arms, pointed to his lips, and indicated that it was time for her to fulfill her reward.
Jiang Qingyan smiled and wrapped her arms around Yi Luo's neck, gently kissing his lips.
Yi Luo felt a tingling sensation in her heart from the kiss, and a satisfied smile appeared on her lips. Amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, she strode towards the side hall.
Perhaps due to a slight cold, Jiang Qingyan felt a little dizzy. She yawned, waved to everyone, and said, "My darlings, go back now. I need to catch up on some sleep. See you tonight!"
The others had hoped to sweet-talk their husbands and receive a kiss in return, but seeing how sleepy they were today, they had no choice but to let them off the hook for the time being…
At this moment, Yi Luo, who had already reached the entrance of the side hall, rolled his eyes and instantly a wicked smile appeared on his lips as he slowly pushed open the door.
My husband only told me to come and talk to Yuan Lie, but he didn't specify what he should say, so... hehe...
The medicine took effect, and Yuan Lie gradually woke up from his coma. He slowly opened his eyes and heard the palace door being pushed open. He excitedly turned his head to look outside.
Upon recognizing Yi Luo as the newcomer, Yuan Lie's eyes instantly dimmed.
The person who came was not her husband…
Yuan Lie said coldly, "Yi Luo? What are you doing in my bedchamber?"
Yi Luo curled her lips into a smile, walked step by step to the bedside, and said calmly, "My husband asked me to come and see if you are dead or not."
Yuan Lie's heart trembled upon hearing this. How could her husband say such a thing about her?
No... Yi Luo is a really bad guy. He must have said that on purpose just to annoy me.
He rolled his eyes at Yi Luo and said coldly, "Do you think I'll believe you just because you say that? Humph, my husband would never say that."
Yi Luo scoffed, "Then tell me, how did I know you had caught a cold? And why did you walk in so openly?"
Yuan Lie frowned. He vaguely remembered that his husband had carried him out of the bathtub, taken off his wet clothes, and kissed him for a long time...
Therefore, only her husband knew that she had caught a cold…
Moreover, the main hall is only a few steps away from the side hall, so her husband knew that Yi Luo had come here…
Did my husband really say that...?
But then again… my husband has so many men, all of them handsome, he doesn’t need another one…
If he dies, it'll make room for the new person...
The thought of this caused a sudden, sharp pain in his heart…
Seeing Yuan Lie's distressed expression, Yi Luo, looking smug, continued to add insult to injury: "Since you're not dead, then take good care of yourself. Oh... by the way, your husband has already given me your night of service this time."
Touched on a sore spot, Yuan Lie finally lost his temper and roared with all his might, "Why should I give you my night of service? No way! I won't allow it! Get my husband here! I'll talk to him myself!"
Yi Luo crossed her arms over her chest, leaned against the bedside, pointed to her lips, and said lightly, "My husband is tired from kissing me just now and has fallen asleep. Why? Of course, it's because I'm prettier than you~ have a better figure~ and I'm better in bed too~"
Yuan Lie laboriously pulled his hand out from under the covers, intending to raise it to hit Yi Luo, but Yi Luo nimbly dodged it…
She could only grit her teeth and curse, "Look at you, so effeminate! My husband clearly prefers a man like me! My figure is a perfect match for his, so stop bragging!"
Seeing that Yuan Lie's upper body was naked, Yi Luo had another wicked idea. He rushed over and pulled back the blanket, staring at Yuan Lie and looking him up and down.
Yuan Lie was both ashamed and angry. How could Yi Luo be so annoying! Once he recovered, he would definitely give this scoundrel a good beating!
A chill ran through him, and Yuan Lie couldn't help but shiver, but he didn't have the strength to pull the blanket back up, so he could only let Yi Luo's gaze sweep over him...
Yuan Lie angrily said, "What are you doing? Quickly cover me with the blanket!"
A moment later, Yi Luo curled her lip and said with feigned confidence, "Tch~ So small~ You're nowhere near as good as me~ No wonder my husband canceled your night service days~"
In fact, Yuan Lie's physique is similar to Yi Luo's—both muscular and perfect, and incredibly alluring…
He said that on purpose, simply to provoke Yuan Lie...
Upon hearing these words, the usually arrogant Yuan Lie was instantly enraged and became dizzy, fainting once again...
Seeing this, Yi Luo quickly bent down and patted his face. When he didn't react, she panicked...
This is really going to be a big problem...
He quickly covered Yuan Lie with the quilt again, then went to the Imperial Household Department to get a charcoal brazier and placed it beside Yuan Lie's bed.
Fearing drafts would get into the room, he carefully closed each window tightly.
Soon, the room warmed up. Yi Luo breathed a sigh of relief, "This bedchamber is warmer than mine now. That Yuan fellow should be alright now..."
Don't kill this kid, or my husband will be angry...
Yuan Lie is currently unconscious and unable to speak. He has completed the task his husband assigned him, and there's nothing else to do here. He might as well go back and catch up on some sleep.
About an hour later, Yuan Lie slowly woke up amidst a violent coughing fit.
The room was filled with thick smoke, which made it hard for him to breathe.
He slowly turned his head and saw a large charcoal brazier beside the bed, from which the thick smoke was coming...
Yuan Lie struggled to get out of bed, but he couldn't muster any strength...
He tried to shout for help, but the doors and windows were tightly shut, and no matter how much he shouted, no one outside could hear him…
Yuan Lie was completely exhausted. He stopped calling for help, slowly closed his eyes, and quietly awaited death…
It's laughable that he, the ruler of a powerful nation, would willingly come to that woman's country and become one of the many men in her harem...
Perhaps his arrival was unnecessary...
That woman was only after his good looks; she didn't care about her own life or death at all…
Otherwise, why would he have allowed Yi Luo to provoke him and then attempted to murder him by burning charcoal while he was unconscious?
Ha...this cold-blooded, ruthless, and vicious woman...
If he could do it all over again, he would never be foolish enough to share her with another man. He would take her back and make her his one and only queen…
Consciousness grew weaker and weaker, and the breath of death drew ever closer…
