The Perfect Destiny

System: "Speak human."

Chen Liguo: "Damn it, I still want to fuck him once!"

System: "......."

Chen Liguo: "Don’t tell me it’s because I’m too thin and he doesn’t like this type?

System: "Don’t talk to me."

Chen Liguo: "I will talk, I will talk."

System："......"

Chen Liguo: "You don’t pay attention to me anymore. You don’t love me anymore."

System: "Never loved."

The moment Chen Liguo heard the system say that it didn’t love him, the play began again. He covered his chest, made a hurt appearance, and tears slowly flowed out of the rims of his eye. He said with a trembling voice, "Why don’t you love me?"

The result was, Le Qi who was bringing medicine into the room saw this scene.

Chen Liguo immediately withdrew his hand and pretended to be dying, but evidently, it was already too late.

"Mi-Milord." Le Qi was evidently frightened by this appearance of Chen Liguo’s and said, "The medicine has arrived."

Chen Liguo hummed in response and continued to lie in bed pretending to die.

Le Qi puts the medicine away and wanted to say something, but Chen Liguo waved and motioned for him to go out.

Le Qi licked his lips and said in a low voice, “Milord, don’t be sad... His, once His Highness has dealt with all those matters he will definitely come to see you.”

Chen Liguo had an indifferent expression, "Oh."

Le Qi sighed and left.

Chen Liguo heaved a deep sigh, "The Gods are against me!"

Although Le Qi said that the Third Prince would come back to see him when he had dealt with the other matters, the fact was clearly contrary to what he had said——It wasn’t until he received a message saying that the Third Prince was to be enthroned tomorrow that Chen Liguo knew that Yan Jingyi had already settled everything.

Chen Liguo: “...” Alas, once children grow up they are difficult to manage.

On the day of Yan Jingyi’s accession to the throne, the weather was fine and the sky was clear and cloudless. Yan Jingyi, dressed in fine clothes, stood on the altar. Under the sunshine, he was even more dazzling, just like a god.

Chen Liguo sat down below and watched as Yan Jingyi walked to the altar step by step and raise the imperial jade seals on top of it.

The rites and music began and the ceremonial officials began offering various sacrifices.

The ceremony began in the morning and it was not until the sun was well up in the sky that it ended with a "rites finished^[1]".

Chen Liguo’s eyes were hurt by the sunshine, but he still looked at the figure with a solemn and pious look.

The moment Yan Jingyi puts the crown on, all the ministers bowed down to the ground and shouted in unison, “Emperor, wan sui, wan sui, wan wan sui^[2].”

Chen Liguo has always avoided kneeling because of his disability, and this time is no exception, so when people knelt down, his eyes and Yan Jingyi’s eyes met each other. But in a split second, Chen Liguo hung his head and avoided Yan Jingyi’s eyes.

Yan Jingyi pursed his lips with a little dissatisfaction and stared at Chen Liguo’s head. After a moment, he looked away and said. "Subjects may rise."

The ministers said, "Thanking Your Majesty."

After the ceremony was the state banquet. Chen Liguo’s had already been weak. Sitting in the sun for half a day, he almost fainted. Now that he can rest, he could be relieved at last.

When the dishes on the table came up one by one, Chen Liguo was not feeling well and so he only drank some porridge and ate some vegetables the put his chopsticks on the table.

"Dear subject Ji^[3]." Yan Jingyi who had been chatting with the ministers suddenly called Chen Liguo’s name. "Is the food not to your liking?"

Chen Liguo was in a daze. He did not expect to suddenly be named by Yan Jingyi. He said, "This minister is merely ill....I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Yan Jingyi nodded and said, “Since Dear Subject Ji is not feeling well, then go back earlier. There’s no need to push oneself.”

Chen Liguo said, "Then, Then many thanks, Your Majesty."

Yan Jingyi watched as Chen Liguo was pushed away from the banquet, a particularly dark look in his eyes.

Chen Liguo went back to his residence, drank the soup that Le Qi had already prepared, and went to bed early.

Unlike in the previous nights where he tossed and turned in bed, Today, as soon as Chen Liguo’s head touched the pillow, he fell asleep. Furthermore, it was a deep sleep.

The dream was sweet, but Chen Liguo had a slight uneasiness. He wanted to eyes open his eyes and wake up, but his eyelids felt so heavy that he couldn’t open his eyes.

"Lord Ji." Someone’s voice rang out and Chen Liguo finally saw a ray of light.

"Lord Ji." The voice was still calling Chen Liguo. who uttered a slight groan and finally saw what was in front of him.

This dazzling bright yellow made Chen Liguo dizzy and made him realize for the first time that he was no longer in his residence.

"Lord Ji." Yan Jingyi looked at the blank face of the man under him and reached out his hand to touch his cheek. "Not yet awake?"

"Your Majesty?" Chen Liguo was sluggish for yet another moment before he finally reacted to what was going on. He wanted to sit up but discovered that his hands were tied to his head.

"Woken up?" Seeing the confusion on Chen Liguo’s face turn into panic, Yan Jingyi’s mood was indescribably good. He leaned over to Chen Liguo’s earlobe and gently put his lip on it then whispered, “We haven’t met for three years, did you miss me as well?”

Chen Liguo: “...” The surprise came so suddenly that he couldn’t adapt to it.

Yan Jingyi said, "Why doesn’t Lord Ji speak?"

Chen Liguo: “...” I’m afraid I’ll laugh as soon as I speak.

Yan Jingyi said, “Look at you. What I said to you before? You were originally thin, and now you’re even thinner.”

Chen Liguo turned his head, his voice trembled, “Your Majesty please conduct yourself with dignity."

Yan Jingyi smiled and reached out to touch Chen Liguo’s waist. It was no surprise to see Chen Liguo’s body quiver at once. He said, "Conduct myself with dignity? Where have I not conducted myself with dignity?"

Chen Liguo said angrily, "Have I done something worthy of Your Majesty’s pardon for Your Majesty to humiliate me like this? Three years ago still isn’t enough? Your Majesty you——ou."

The final words ended in a kiss, Yan Jingyi’s kiss was rough, it was not until he almost suffocated Chen Liguo with the kiss that he stopped.

Chen Liguo’s cheeks were red and his eyes were misted over. He said, “Bug off.”

Yan Jingyi said with a low smile, “When you sent me the letter to help me ascend the throne, shouldn’t you have thought about of those days long ago?”

Chen Liguo rebuked angrily, "Where would I ever be able to imagine that Your Majesty would return kindness with ingratitude like this?”

Yan Jingyi said, "This is returning kindness with ingratitude? Lord Ji, I’ve already endured it for three years, you don’t know....." When he spoke till here, he deliberately lowered his voice. "That day when I saw you lying in the main hall gasping for breath, I got hard."

Chen Liguo: "......" He really didn’t know.

Chen Liguo closed his eyes, his wrists continually struggled, seemingly in despair. He said, "Your Majesty, let me go—If you have a little gratitude to me, please don’t put me in this situation."

Yan Jingyi said, "Why do you think I became the Emperor?"

Chen Liguo was at a loss.

Yan Jingyi pinched Chen Liguo’s chin and smiled coolly, “Is it not just to get what I want?” As he spoke, he slowly removed Chen Liguo’s inner clothes.

In the very next moment, Chen Liguo felt something hard against his leg. He turned his head, seemingly reluctant to speak anymore.

Yan Jingyi forcefully turned Chen Ligo’s face over and said, "Lord Ji, are you very disappointed?"

Chen Liguo didn’t talk.

Yan Jingyi said, "Say if princess Huige learned that you are such a person, what would she think?"

Chen Liguo was shocked and said, “How do you know that?”

Yan Jingyi said, "I naturally have my own methods. These three years, what happened in this place, I wouldn’t know?"

Chen Liguo grit his teeth, "Did you know of the Second Prince’s plan?"

Yan Jingyi shook his head, "This matter was too abrupt. When my people hadn’t yet sent me the news, I received your letter." In other words, the implication was this meritorious deed was still placed upon Chen Liguo.

It was only then that Chen Liguo could rest his heart. He appeared to be sad and say, “She’s still a child. Don’t let her know these things.”

Yan Jingyi smiled, but not even an ounce of sincerity could be seen in this smile, "That will have to depend on how Lord Ji performs."

Chen Liguo shivered, more than half of his clothes had been removed. He felt that at this moment he was like a pitiful rabbit that had been skinned and placed in front of the wolf.

Chen Liguo rapidly gasped for breath and wailed, "Why—Why me!"

Yan Jingyi sighed, "I want to ask that as well."

Chen Liguo’s tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes. He stopped struggling and permitted Yan Jingyi movements.

Yan Jingyi felt that Chen Liguo had given up his struggles. He felt somewhat happy, but also felt somewhat angry, but the things that should be done, he didn’t hold back at all.

Chen Liguo was dragged into a frenzied passion be him.

This night was particularly long, and in the end, Chen Liguo cried and begged for mercy and did not allow Yan Jingyi to continue on. Yan Jingyi had gone hungry for three years, finally getting his meat, if he hadn’t taken pity Chen Liguo’s body, he might have been able to continue until noon the next day.

In any case, when dawn arises, Chen Liguo couldn’t feel his own body anymore. His eyes spiritless, head resting upon Yan Jingyi’s shoulders. What Yan Jingyi wanted him to say, he said, what he wanted him to do, he did.

Such an obedient Ji Shang was very attractive. Yan Jingyi smiled gently, looking at the proud and lofty person before him behaving like an obedient doll.

"Lord Ji." Yan Jingyi slowly said, "I really to kill you in bed......"

The man who had lost his senses did not know what Yan Jingyi had said and was held in Yan Jingyi’s arms, unable to even cry out.

"Come." Yan Jingyi’s body was still full of energy. He said, "Prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."

Moments later, hot water was prepared by the palace servants outside the door.

Yan Jingyi picked up Chen Liguo, wrapped him in a blanket, and carried him in such a way into the bathroom.

Chen Liguo was muddled and confused, completely unaware of the outside world.
