Handsome Broken Legged Little Military Advisor [14]

  Curling up in the misty bath, Chen Liguo’s soul and body reached a perfect unity. His entire person was muddle-headed and he was so comfortable that he wanted to straightforwardly moan.

  In the bath, Yan Jingyi did not toss Chen Liguo around again. He simply helped Chen Liguo clean up his body and then took him back to his room. He carefully wiped Chen Liguo’s hair then went to sleep with Chen Liguo in his arms.

  Both of them slept well this night, and Chen Liguo had a dream.

  The next day, when Chen Liguo woke up, Yan Jingyi was already no longer by his side. He looked out the window and found that it was already late into the day. He figured that Yan Jingyi had gone to court.

  Yesterday really was too intense, even though Chen Liguo’s spirit was strong, it was incapable of preventing his body to become sore. He lay in bed and discovered what he couldn’t feel wasn’t only his legs, to be exact, he didn’t feel anything below his waist……

  When Chen Liguo discovered this, his heart was somewhat horrified, and said in his mind that it was surely unlikely for him to become disabled by Yan Jingyi, right?

  Chen Liguo said, “System, System.”


  The system played dead.

  Chen Liguo said, “What’s wrong with my body? Why it move anymore?”


  The system continued to play dead.

  Chen Liguo said, "I don’t feel quite too great……Baby, why aren’t you talking?"

  The system coldly thought: "Who the fuck is your baby?" However, because of his own obligation, he answered Chen Liguo’s question. He said, "Strenuous exercise can lead to muscle strain, after resting a few days it’ll be fine."

  Chen Liguo: "It was like this! Actually, I feel that the amount of exercise is good, it’s just I haven’t moved for too long……" He said this, then actually bushed and revealed a blissful smile.

  The system thought in its heart, thank goodness there’s a privacy protection function, otherwise, its eyes would have since long be blinded.

  Last night really was too much. After Chen Liguo woke up for a while, he fell asleep in a daze again. It was not until that Yan Jingyi came back from court that he was awakened by a gentle touch.

  As soon as he opened his eyes, Chen Liguo saw Yan Jingyi’s face a very short distance away.

  "Hic." Startled, Chen Liguo hiccuped.

  It was only then that Yan Jingyi sat up and say with a smile, "You’re up."

  Chen Liguo was about to speak, but the moment he opened his mouth, what came out was: "Hic—"

  Yan Jingyi："……"

  Chen Liguo said: "Hurry, hic, let me go, hic, back, hic……" What should have been a menacing tone, now became like that of a spoiled child.

  After Yan Jingyi listened, he slightly curved the corners of his mouth and said, "Lord Ji, what are you saying? I can’t hear clearly."

  "You, hic——" Chen Liguo held his breath and strived his great effort to make his sentence clear. He said, "Your Highness please send me back home. If you let others know about the relationship between Your Majesty and myself, it will certainly harm Your Majesty’s reputation!"

  Yan Jingyi’s smile faded slightly. He said, “That is correct.”


  Chen Liguo was still hiccuping. He felt that he needed to drink some water.

  Yan Jingyi watched Chen Liguo’s expression and saw him hang his head, unwilling to look at him. He reached out, held his chin, then lifted his head.

  The person before him compared to three years ago, really was thinner. Yan Jingyi looked at Chen Liguo’s face and sighed in his heart. But this stubborn temper has not changed a single bit.

  Chen Liguo hiccuped softly, pursed his lips, his expression indifferent.

  Yan Jingyi said, "Ji Shang."

  Chen Liguo heard Yan Jingyi suddenly call his name and inexplicably felt a chill crawl up his spine.

  Yan Jingyi was unaware of Chen Liguo’s nervousness. He asked in a low voice, "Why did you help me?"

  Chen Liguo thought in his heard: For what reason? Is it not because you’re handsome?——But he definitely couldn’t answer Yan Jingyi like this, and thus he disregarded his face and said icily, "I didn’t help you, I helped Great Yan."

  Yan Jingyi knew that he was doomed to be disappointed, but when he really got this answer, he still found it difficult to accept it and said, "Even if I treat you in such a way?"

  Chen Liguo sighed, and like a weary elder, he said, "Your Majesty is young, playing hard, I can still understand. I am just a tough-boned man. After a few years, Your Majesty will be tired of this, and will forget me."

  Yan Jingyi’s grip on Chen Liguo’s chin tightened, aggravated. It wasn’t until Chen Liguo frowned slightly that he loosened his grip. But Chen Liguo’s chin now had a blue and purple fingerprint.

  Yan Jingyi said, "It turns out that you thought like this."

  Chen Liguo was silent and did not speak.

  "The Yan army won." Yan Jingyi awkwardly said this sentence. "Just before I could send the news about the victory back to the royal court, I received your letter."

  Chen Liguo vaguely guessed what Yan Jingyi was going to say.

  Yan Jingyi said, "The Emperor of that country wants to make peace, saying as long as we marry a princess over, then he will give us ten cities."

  Chen Liguo blinked, and then trembled, "No, you can’t."

  Yan Jingyi’s voice was like ice. He said, "I can."

  Chen Liguo’s entire body trembled and he said, "Huige is not suitable a political marriage, she is still so small—Your Majesty—"

  Yan Jingyi looked into Chen Liguo’s eyes without a trace of warmth. He said coldly, "Lord Ji, yes or no, the choice of this matter is in your hands."

  Chen Liguo failed to understand the reason why,

  Yan Jingyi said, "You have made great contributions, and I won’t force you."

  Chen Liguo heard this and though in his heart: my chrysanthemum is still burning, how can you lie so brazenly like this, but you look so good, so I will generously forgive you.

  Yan Jingyi said, "So, I can grant you one request."

  Chen Liguo’s face was as white as paper, seemingly unable to speak a single word.

  Yan Jingyi looked at him seeming like this and felt some pity in his heart. But this pity did not last long, and in a split second, he hardened his heart. He said, "You can tell me, what is your request?"

  Chen Liguo said: My request is that you promise me another thousand requests—this is could not happen, it was not in line with Ji Shang’s settings. If he really said such a thing, it was estimated that he would be removed from the world by the system in the next moment. So Chen Liguo clenched his teeth and squeezed out a single sentence from his mouth: "Your Majesty, why make things difficult for me?"

  Yan Jingyi laughed with no intention of answering.

  Also correct, he was the emperor, the most powerful person in the land under the heavens. If he wants to say something, he can say it, if he didn’t want to say, who can force him to say it?

  Chen Liguo closed his eyes, his emotion seemed to be on the verge of collapsing and he no longer cared about his naked body being exposed to Yan Jingyi.

  Yan Jingyi looked at the ambiguous marks on Chen Liguo’s body and his gaze sank slightly, but he also knew that it was not the time for doing those things. He was waiting for an answer, an answer he already knew.

  Chen Liguo finally opened his eyes, there was a hint of fragility in his eyes. His voice was hoarse and seemed to crack, "Why, Why me?"

  Yan Jingyi lifted a strand of Chen Liguo’s hair and said lightly, "This question, I also want to know."

  Chen Liguo heard this sentence, suddenly covered his chest and bright red blood spewed out of his mouth.

  Yan Jingyi was shocked and was about to get up and call the doctor but Chen Liguo grabbed his Sleeve.

  Chen Liguo’s expression was miserable and he said with a gloomy tone, "Your Majesty, I’ve chosen."

  Yan Jingyi looked at his face, his heart felt somewhat irritated, and he said, "I’ll call the imperial doctor first."

  Chen Liguo shook his head slowly and calmly said, "This subject had had the illness of coughing up blood for a long time, even the imperial physicians within the palace can do nothing about it."

  Yan Jingyi frowned and said, "You’ve never thought to seek medical treatment elsewhere?"

  Chen Liguo sighed lightly, a heavy sense of tiredness in his brows, and broached the previous topic again. He said, "This subject has decided."

  Yan Jingyi said, "Oh?"

  Chen Liguo said, “Please…… Your Majesty, demote Princess Huige to a commoner."

  Yan Jingyi did not think that Chen Liguo’s request would actually be this. He said, "Are you sure?"

  Chen Liguo nodded.

  Yan Zhiyao’s character was not tough. Although Chen Liguo had done his best to help her, her childhood experiences made her very sensitive and feel inferior. In this palace, Yan Zhiyao never thought about how she could get to a higher position. She only asked for herself to not live in a such a terrible way. Even after having someone she liked, she didn’t dare to think about a future with this person.

  Chen Liguo had done a lot for Yan Zhiyao, but it could be said that he is now doing in front of Yan Jingyi is arguably the most significant thing.

  Yan Jingyi’s attitude would determine Yan Zhiyao’s fate. Whether she would marry into the other country and lead a sorrowful life, or stay in the Yan country and enjoy a fairly wealthy life as a small nobel, full of children and grandchildren, and see her own motherland look over the lands under the heaven.

  Yan Jingyi slowly said, "Have you thought, if she knew, that it was you who wanted me to usurp her princess title, how would she want you?"

  Chen Liguo said, "She won’t blame me."

  Yan Jingyi was silent for a while and seemed to be thinking about something. Then after a long time, he said, "I can promise you this request."

  Chen Liguo secretly rejoiced in his heart.

  Yan Jingyi had no expression on his face and Chen Liguo couldn’t see whether he was happy or angry. He only heard Yan Jingyi say, "Just you need to understand, the number of requests you can make, is just one."

  The implication was that if he wanted to save Yan Zhiyao, he must stay with Yan Jingyi.

  Chen Liguo said, "I understand."

  Yan Jingyi gazed at Chen Liguo’s face and found that Chen Liguo’s face had no resentment or remorse, it was completely indifferent and made his heart dissatisfied and agitated. He said, "Lord Ji, I never perceived before that your relationship with princess Huige is so good."

  Chen Liguo said faintly, "It’s just because I can’t help but help those who are pitiful and can’t help themselves."

  Yan Jingyi laughed grimly and said, "Then this matter, will be settled with such."

  Chen Liguo nodded, "This official will trouble Your Majesty to send this official home."

  Yan Jingyi said, "Good."

  When he finished speaking, he sent palace servant to prepare the carriage.

  Chen Liguo noticed that Yan Jingyi was still contentiously protecting his confidentiality. The palace people used were only the personal aids, and when he was carried into the carriage he was also specially wrapped tightly into a blanket.

  Chen Liguo’s body was somewhat fatigued and he vomited blood earlier so his appearance at this time was particularly bad.

  In the carriage, Yan Jingyi touched his forehead and sighed, "We haven’t met for a few years and your body is getting worse and worse. When I have time, I will find some famous doctors around the whole country.

  Chen Liguo said lightly, "Many thanks Your Majesty for your great kindness."

  Yan Jingyi’s eyes carried a bit of reluctance to part, but he was very good at suppressing this sort of emotion in his heart, and said to Chen Liguo, " Go on."

  The carriage continued on and Chen Liguo fell asleep one more in this bumpy ride.

  When he arrived the manor, Chen Liguo could not remember who it was that had carried him back, but in any case, when he woke up again, it was already the next day.

  Chen Liguo whispered, "Le Qi."

  Le Qi, who had been close at hand the entire time, slowly came over and then cried out with a somewhat guilty tone, "Milord."

  Chen Liguo closed his eyes, "How do I treat you?"

  Le Qi choked with sobs, fell to his knees and said, "Milord, Milord I wronged you—forgive me, Milord—"

  Chen Liguo coughed a few times and said indifferently, "You started following me since four years old, and now it’s more than a dozen years. Seeing as we’ve been master and servant for a long time, I won’t make things difficult for you, leave on your own."

  Le Qi burst into tears, his voice sounded incomparably miserable that Chen Liguo could not bear to hear it.

  But since Le Qi’s identity as a spy was already exposed, Chen Liguo couldn’t leave him by his side.

  Le Qi said, "Milord, I know my wrongs, I really know my wrongs. Don’t chase me away, don’t chase me away!"

  Chen Liguo said, "Why?" What did he give you, that you would work for him?"

  Le Qi’s tears kept flowing and said, "Third—no, His Majesty, his Majesty promised me that if I helped him, when he ascended the throne, he would release me from slavery."

  To be released from slavery, Chen Liguo really couldn’t help in this matter. Although he could not treat Le Qi as a slave and tear Le Qi’s deed of sale, Le Qi still couldn’t be rid of his slave status for Le Qi was a special official slave that only the emperor could release.

  Chen Liguo said, "This I can understand."

  Le Qi knelt and moved forward two steps grabbing Chen Liguo’s clothes as he pleased, "Milord Milord—I really was muddled-headed, please forgive me, don’t drive me away."

  Chen Liguo sighed lightly and reached out to touch Le Qi’s head. He said, "After you cast off your slave status, don’t you want to go and live your own life?"

  Le Qi shook his head, his tears flowed even more fiercely.

  Chen Liguo said warmly, "A man of character born into troubled times ought to wear a three feet sword, to stand is not an achievement—this chaotic world is a disaster to the people and a blessing to the heroes."

  Le Qi listened in ignorance.

  Chen Liguo said, "You definitely cannot stay in my home. But after you shed your slave status, if you want to go anywhere, you can tell me. If I am able to help, then I will help you."

  Le Qi said, "Milord you really don’t blame me?"

  Chen Liguo smiled calmly and said, "Don’t blame you."

  Le Qi cried again, but this time there was no panic in his sobs, it was the mourn of a child who suffered through grievances. He said, "Milord, why did things come to this point? Milord—"

  Chen Liguo felt that at this moment he really was like a Buddha with golden halos shining around his body. Eh, who is pretending? How unpleasant?

  Le Qi cried from morning to noon and finally fell asleep after crying and crying. Chen Liguo looked at his pitiful appearance and felt upset—he didn’t eat anything the entire day and just watched Le Qi cry.

  But watching Le Qi cry until he became like this, Chen Liguo felt that it was a bit inhumane to wake him up.

  Fortunately, Le Qi didn’t sleep for long. After waking up, the whole person blanked out for a moment then asked, "Milord, how long did I sleep for?"

  Chen Liguo said, "……half a day now."

  Le Qi said, "Mi, Why didn’t Milord wake me up?"

  Chen Liguo said, "Let you sleep more, I saw that you were tired."

  Looking at this thoughtful Chen Liguo, Le Qi’s tears almost came out again. He choked on a sob and said, "Milord, you’re so kind."

  Chen Liguo saw that there were tears in his eyes and said hurriedly, "I’m a little hungry, how about you bring me something to eat."

  Le Qi made a sound of agreement and left.

  Chen Liguo let out a breath of relief and said to the system, "Le Qi is cute everywhere, but he likes to cry too much."

  System："……"

  Chen Liguo said, "Look at how strong I am! Never have I cried so wretchedly."

  The system was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "You cry even more wretchedly than him."

  Chen Liguo, "When?"

  System: "Yesterday."

  Chen Liguo: "……" He was silent for a moment, then cautiously said, "Isn’t there a host privacy protection system? How do you know?"

  System: "Because when it was over, you were still crying."

  Chen Liguo: "……" Fuck, this is really embarrassing.

  System: "When you cry you say don’t."

  Chen Liguo："……"

  System: "Hehe."

  Chen Liguo keenly felt the system’s change. He didn’t know what happened to the system that had originally always gone in accordance with him for all matters. Chen Liguo was lost, "You changed."

  System: "This is called evolution."

  While the two were talking, Le Qi came in with the meal. When he came in, his expression was very cautious. When Chen Liguo saw his expression, he knew that something had definitely happened, he knew this child too well.

  But Chen Liguo was too hungry, so he wasn’t in a hurry to ask. After he drank his porridge and ate his a la carte he asked, "What happened?"

  "I, I just received a message from somebody……" Le Qi was even more careful. He hesitated for a while before intermittently days, "The princess in the palace……something happened."

  The hand that held the porridge bowl paused for a moment. Chen Liguo said, "Which princess."

  Le Qi said, "Princess Huige……"

  Chen Liguo said, "What happened?"

  "Princess……Princess, she……" Le Qi said ’she’ for a long time, unable to say it.

  Chen Liguo had a guess in his heart, so he was not too panicked, "Say, what happened?"

  Le Qi gritted his teeth and said, "The Princess is dead."

  Chen Liguo heard this, and the bowl in his hand fell with a bang. For the first time in this world, he forgot his manners, "What did you say?"

  "It is said that she got infected with a bad disease." Le Qi whispered, "After one night’s of effort, the person died." His voice got smaller and smaller, evidently, he did not believe his own words.

  Chen Liguo was shocked for a period of time, but quickly reacted and realized that what Le Qi said was impossible. For in accordance with the System’s nature, if Yan Zhiyao died, he would definitely be ejected from the world immediately.

  But despite this, this incident caught Chen Liguo by surprise.

  Le Qi saw Chen Liguo’s sluggish look and thought that his family’s Lord had suffered a serious blow. He said in a hurry, "Milord, Milord, you must hold on, Princess Huige definitely wouldn’t want to see you meet with any mishap."

  Chen Liguo put on a poker face. "I know, you prepare the carriage for me, I will go to the palace."

  Le Qi gulped his saliva and looked at Chen Liguo’s calm face, his own heart was terrified to death. He said. "Milord……"

  Chen Liguo shouted loudly, "Quickly go!"

  Le Qi did not dare say anything more, he turned out and went to prepare a carriage for Chen Liguo to go to the palace.

  Chen Liguo said, "How was it? How many points would you give to my acting?"

  System: "Chat function is not provided."

  Chen Liguo: "Humph, you’ll easily lose me if you act like this you know."

  System: "All that one can wish for."

  Chen Liguo："……"

  Le Qi prepared very quickly. When he came back in, he saw Chen Liguo sitting silently at the head of the bed. He became worried and asked, “Milord, are you alright?”


  Chen Liguo said faintly, "I’ve very well."

  Le Qi pushed Chen Liguo and the two got onto the carriage.

  In the carriage, Chen Liguo was bored and asked, "When did you start working for his Majesty?"

  Le Qi heard this and felt that Chen Liguo was pursuing the matter and answered ashamedly, "It’s, it’s already been a few years."

  "No wonder." Chen Liguo said this then closed his eyes.

  Le Qi desired to speak but stopped again. When the words reached his mouth he swallowed them back. His Lord knew that he had betrayed him, but did not blame him. What qualifications did he have to say other things?

  It was only yesterday that he left the palace and today he is returning again, furthermore, it was with his own initiative.

  Chen Liguo’s mood at this time was very complicated. He never thought that Yan Jingyi would be so efficient His request was made only made yesterday but was fulfilled today,

  Yan Jingyi was also sure that Chen Liguo would definitely come, so he sent people to greet them in advance.

  Chen Liguo entered the palace without any hindrance and it only took half an hour to see Yan Jingyi.

  Le Qi was left outside the door and he watched with concern as Chen Liguo wheeled himself into the study room.

  "After a day’s sleep, did you rest well?" Yan Jingyi was looking at a document on the table and didn’t even raise his head when he heard Chen Liguo come in.

  "Your Majesty." Chen Liguo said, "I heard about Princess Huige’s matter."

  Yan Jingyi stopped writing and raised his head, "Well?"

  Chen Liguo said, "……For what reason is it death?"

  Yan Jingyi threw down his pen and said, “I regret it, is that not allowed?”


  Chen Liguo was speechless.

  Yan Jingyi saw that Chen Liguo was unmoved and smiled, "Alright, in fact, she was too ignorant and actually had the audacity to contradict me."

  Chen Liguo smiled tiredly, "And then?"

  Yan Jingyi said coldly, "Then? And then, of course, she angered me—the new emperor. The princess died without any pain or aitch, it’s not that big of an event."

  Chen Liguo said, "I understand."

  Yan Jingyi said, "What do you understand?"

  Chen Liguo chuckled and said, "I understand that Your Majesty is definitely joking with me."
