Chapter 994 She still has Xie Shang in her heart.
When Jiang Fenghua saw Xie Shang's appearance, she seemed to see the figure of Baili Shang. He also deeply loved Danji Aruan, but Danji Aruan did not love him.
Xie Shang asked, "What is Ruan Ruan thinking about?"
“I think I might know the origin of the Crescent Moon Whale Pattern.” Jiang Fenghua briefly recounted the events of her dream to Xie Shang, and then added, “The Kingdom of Yinchuan did exist, but it was taken away by a devastating natural disaster, and the Kingdom of Yinchuan disappeared from then on.”
Xie Shang frowned deeply. "What is the connection between the Yinchuan Kingdom and the Crescent Moon Whale Pattern? Does the existence of the Yinchuan Kingdom conflict with the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Jiang Fenghua smiled and said, "Yinchuan Kingdom has no conflict with Da Zhou, after all, more than a thousand years have passed. However, Yinchuan Kingdom and the Crescent Moon Whale Pattern have a certain connection, or you could say they have no connection. The key is who is plotting all this behind the scenes."
Xie Shang also knew there was someone involved, but he sent people to investigate without finding anything. From what he knew, this person was not Xiao Shang. He judged that Xiao Shang might also be someone else's pawn. "Ruan Ruan, tell me in detail what you know."
"Husband, I'm hungry." Jiang Fenghua suddenly began to whine, her voice becoming soft and gentle. "I feel like I've been starving for ages. Let's eat first and then we can talk!"
Xie Shang also felt sorry for her, especially when Jiang Fenghua softened towards him, he was particularly pleased, "Husband personally cooked noodles for his wife."
Xie Shang did not leave the capital as the emperor, so he naturally did not bring any personal servants. Although he had secret guards with him, at this time he was only a secret guard of the Divine Concealment Camp, so he had to take care of himself.
Jiang Fenghua watched Xie Shang bustling around, showing no trace of an emperor, but rather like an ordinary person. Xie Shang had said that he had been able to take care of himself since childhood, and having spent many years in the Shenyin Camp, he also possessed many life skills.
Jiang Fenghua's mind drifted back to Baili Shang. What connection could they possibly have?
While Xie Shang was busy, she got out of bed and wandered around outside. This was not Xichuan, which they had visited before.
When she returned, Xie Shang brought her a steaming bowl of vegetarian noodles. "Xichuan is such a barren place, there's nothing here. I had someone buy these noodles from a faraway place. Ruan Ruan, please make do with this!"
A feeling of happiness inexplicably rose in Jiang Fenghua's heart, a warm and comforting feeling.
Seeing the blush on her face, Xie Shang asked with concern, "Why is your face so red? Are you sick?"
He tentatively touched her forehead, and saw the curse between her brows slowly disappear. He said, "Ruan Ruan."
Seeing the shock in his eyes, Jiang Fenghua was too nervous to speak. "What happened again?"
Xie Shang exclaimed excitedly, "The red spider lily flower decoration between your eyebrows has disappeared!"
Jiang Fenghua quickly asked, "Is there a mirror?"
Xie Shang said, "There is a basin, and there is water in the basin."
He quickly carried the basin to Jiang Fenghua. Jiang Fenghua was also a little impatient. She looked into the water and saw a beautiful face appear in the water. The curse between her eyebrows had really disappeared.
She was also puzzled; how could he have suddenly disappeared?
Xie Shang asked, "What exactly happened to Ruan Ruan after she arrived in Xichuan?"
Jiang Fenghua stared at Xie Shang's face. She seemed to have been thinking about Xie Shang and Baili Shang just now. She was even comparing them. Her state of mind changed in that instant. She had Xie Shang in her heart.
In her dream, she persuaded Jiang Ruan in red and Danji Aruan to let go of their hatred. Did they really let go? Or was it because she had developed feelings for Xie Shang again, and she had also let go of her resentment from her past life and fallen in love with him again?
She had sworn never to fall in love again, nor to love any man. All she wanted was to stand at the top of power and look down on everyone. Could it be that she had fallen for Xie Shang again?
Jiang Fenghua was certain that her feelings for Xie Shang were feigned; their relationship was merely one of mutual exploitation. Only when both parties had value could they become husband and wife and treat each other with the respect due to guests.
"Ruan Ruan." Xie Shang saw that she looked like she was in a daze and asked with concern, "The curse between your eyebrows has disappeared. Aren't you happy?" Why does she have such a cold face?
Jiang Fenghua suddenly hugged Xie Shang tightly, burying her face in his chest to confirm her feelings and to hear if his heartbeat was real.
Xie Shang's chest wound was hurt by her rubbing, so he quickly pushed her away, saying, "Ruan Ruan is hurting me."
Jiang Fenghua asked, "Are you injured?"
Xie Shang said, "It's just a minor injury, but fortunately it didn't hit any vital organs."
Jiang Fenghua pulled open his clothes and saw that he was still wrapped in bandages, which were stained with blood. Judging from the bloodstains on the bandages, it was definitely not a minor injury. "What exactly happened? Your martial arts are not weak, and you have hidden guards protecting you. Who could have hurt you?"
Xie Shang remained calm. "It's nothing, I'll recover after a period of rest."
Jiang Fenghua looked into the basin again and saw a purplish-blue ring around her neck, as if she had been pinched by fingers. She touched her thigh, where she had pricked herself with silver needles in her dream in an attempt to save herself.
However, she had no injuries on her legs.
Could it be... that the person she stabbed was Xie Shang?
Jiang Fenghua finally understood what was going on. She had wanted to kill Xie Shang countless times, but she hadn't done it because she was controlled by the resentment in her heart.
She thought she had let go of the past, but it turns out she still harbored resentment.
She said, "I'm the one who hurt you."
Xie Shang recalled how she had tried to kill him without realizing it; she was also hurting herself. He still felt a chill when he thought about it. "As long as Ruan Ruan can wake up safely, I'll be at ease."
Jiang Fenghua gently hugged his waist and murmured, "I'm sorry."
She now understands Xie Shang quite well. He is the emperor, and sitting in such a high position, he has many things that are beyond his control. If he were Baili Shang, he would not fight for power and profit. He is just the Fifth Prince. Wouldn't he be much happier and more at ease?
The emperor has no right to do whatever he wants or enjoy freedom.
Xie Shang smiled and said, "If Ruan Ruan kisses her husband, her husband won't be angry anymore."
Jiang Fenghua kissed his cheek, and immediately became flustered. Even though they were an old married couple, her heart suddenly started beating very fast.
Xie Shang paused, his heart beating even faster after she kissed him. If it weren't for the inconvenience of the place, he might have wanted to take things further with her.
Jiang Fenghua knew Xie Shang was a womanizer, so she changed the subject, "How did my husband find me? What about Minister Xiao and Xiao Yu?"
Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "They have disappeared. I was able to find Ruan Ruan quickly because of Master Wu Zi's help. He calculated that the Ziwei Emperor Star had shifted, which is how I found you."
Jiang Fenghua asked in confusion, "What Ziwei Emperor Star?"
"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore. Back then, I had Master Wu Zi tell your fortune. He predicted that the Purple Star Emperor would descend upon the palace. At that time, Yuan'er was born, and I thought he was the Purple Star Emperor, the next ruler of the world. But now it seems that I was wrong. The real Purple Star Emperor is you, Ruan Ruan."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fenghua immediately said, "Impossible, that's too far-fetched, how could that be?"
She had no desire to compete with Xie Shang for the world, much less to become an empress. She and Xie Shang already had many misunderstandings, and Xie Shang was very wary of her. She was even less clear about how Master Wu Zi had interpreted the celestial phenomena.
She was thinking about how to explain it.
