Chapter 176 The Iron-blooded Emperor's Palm
In the absence of the monarch, the palace became especially quiet.
The confidant who was left behind had to deliver a portion of cat food that was comparable to the king's meal to the king's bedroom every day.
Although he knew that the king had a kitten, the confidant was still surprised that the king valued the kitten so much that he even stayed behind to let the kitten eat fresh food every day.
This……
But he dared not interfere with the king's orders.
Hearing the noise outside the door, Shi Li, who was lying on the bed, raised her eyelids lazily and did not rush to eat.
My body became heavier and heavier, and sometimes I slept for a whole day.
In this state, it’s obvious that the cat’s life is about to end.
She had always ignored this matter before. A cat's lifespan is limited. Even if she behaved well, it would be impossible for her to accompany Ji Junze forever.
But I can’t bear to leave him!
Shi Li closed her eyes again, hiding the pain in her eyes.
After eight years of living together day and night, watching Ji Junze approaching step by step, how could she bear to leave?
But she couldn't change it.
[Wow, is the live broadcast about to end? I can’t bear to leave the emperor! ]
[This... So the emperor really doesn't like women, right? ]
[Of course! The Emperor likes cats!!!]
The friends in the live broadcast room were actually very sad, but seeing Shi Li like this, they were still trying hard to adjust the atmosphere.
After a while, Shi Li mustered up enough strength to open her eyes, jumped out of bed and went to eat.
If she could hold on, she wanted to wait until Ji Junze returned triumphantly and take one more look at him.
Just one glance.
Unfortunately, there is no chance.
In a state of confusion, Shi Li persisted for another half a month, sleeping almost all day long. But her health was getting worse and worse.
I really can't hold on any longer.
One night, Shi Li decided to leave.
Stepping on the pillow that was stained with Ji Junze's scent, a tear flowed down the corner of her eye.
If Ji Junze comes back and doesn’t see her, will he be angry?
But not being able to see her and thinking she just left on her own might be better than knowing she was dead.
Shi Li didn’t know which ending Ji Junze would prefer, so she could only make a decision for him.
Even the comments were silent, no one was telling her what to do.
Shi Li came to the garden shrouded in moonlight, found the most remote corner, slowly lay down next to a bunch of unknown wild flowers, and slowly closed her eyes again.
But this time I can never wake up again.
Ji Junze, who won consecutively, had another dream that night.
The cat-eared girl who had not appeared in my dreams for a long time appeared again.
This time, in his military tent, the young girl walked in, smiling, pulling aside the curtain. The candlelight shone on her fair face, and her dimples seemed to be glowing.
"I'm leaving."
She spoke in her dream for the first time, and the smile on her face gradually faded and turned into sadness.
Hearing this, Ji Junze felt unprecedented panic and subconsciously reached out to grab her, but the moment before he touched her sleeve, his dream was shattered.
Ji Junze woke up with a serious expression.
Just then, a confidant's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, there is a letter from the palace."
Ji Junze's face was as gloomy as water, and he said slowly: "Come in."
The confidant walked in slowly with his head down, holding a letter in his hands, and presented it with both hands, "Your Majesty, a letter."
Ji Junze looked at the letter, but for some reason, he did not take it immediately.
The confidant did not dare to move and waited patiently.
Finally, Ji Junze finally picked up the letter.
The letter said that his cat was missing.
Ji Junze had a premonition when he woke up, but now when he read the letter, he didn't feel surprised at all.
However, his palms were still clenched into fists.
In November of the same year, Ji Junze captured the capital of Su State.
In December, the army returned to the capital.
At the end of the year, the remaining royal relatives of Su State gathered many beauties and sent them to Feng State along with countless treasures.
Among the beauties, there was one who was an acquaintance of Ji Junze.
Qin Ling, who had grown into a graceful young girl, had refused to get married all these years, enduring year after year. When she heard that Su State was going to send a beauty to Feng State, she immediately volunteered.
Compared to the other crying beauties in the carriage, Qin Ling was the only one who came forward on her own initiative, with excitement and joy revealed on her pretty face.
She could finally be with Ji Junze.
Over the years, she has regretted countless times why she didn't go with Ji Junze back then, causing so much time to be wasted.
Now, the chance has finally come!
No one noticed that a petite girl was curled up in the corner of the carriage, crying until she fainted.
When I woke up again, the core had been replaced.
