Empress with no Virtue Chapter 86: Situation

When Ye Zhenzhen woke up, she found herself lying on a river beach with a piece of wood. The river flows quietly, holding countless pieces of gold under the sunset, shaking with a sense of indifference and tranquility, as if the flood that swallowed up the sky and the earth before was just a dream.

However, the surrounding vegetation and the smell of mud in the air betrayed this tranquility.

Ye Zhenzhen raised her head with difficulty and looked to the west. Across a river, the sun was sinking and about to be swallowed up by the earth. As if unwilling to do so, it dyed the horizon a shocking blood red.

The thick color was so dazzling that it made her eyes sore and her heart hurt.

The red light was suddenly obscured by a shadow. It was a person, wearing white clothes, with a slender figure. His face could not be seen clearly with the light behind his back. He only had a pair of bright eyes, which seemed to be looking at her with a smile. Ye Zhenzhen's eyes were sore from looking directly at the sun, and now her eyes were turning black. She squinted her eyes to look at him, vaguely thinking that he was him.

"Ji Wu Jiu..." She couldn't help but shout. Due to her weak body, her voice was not loud, more like whispering alone.

The man squatted down, raised his hand to help Ye Zhenzhen smooth her messy hair, and wiped away the mud on her face. He called her in a low voice, "Brother Zhen, do you still know me?"

Ye Zhenzhen closed her eyes tightly, holding back tears, "Why don't you know me, Li You?" Ji Wu Jiu thought about the person he wanted to catch.

Ji Liyou untied her body, picked her up from the waist, "Let's go, I'll take you to find a place to stay first."

Ye Zhenzhen nodded. She didn't reject him. Ji Liyou knew who she was, so he must have come prepared, otherwise she wouldn't have appeared here by chance. Even if she refused, it was of no use, so she had to pretend to be obedient first, and then try to escape.

However, although she knew who he was, he didn't know that she knew who he was, so she was willing to keep pretending to be stupid.

In order not to show off her flaws, Ye Zhenzhen deliberately asked, "Why are you here?"

"I was just passing by and happened to see you lying by the river. I didn't dare to recognize you at first. Brother Zhen...can I call you Sister Zhen?"

"Whatever."

Ji Liyou pursed her lips and said, "Well, Sister Zhen... why are you in such a mess? What happened?"

When Ye Zhenzhen thought of Ji Wu Jiu's figure being swallowed up by the flood in the blink of an eye, she finally couldn't hold it back and burst into tears, and soon broke down in tears.

"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore, don't cry." He comforted her. Seeing Ye Zhenzhen crying miserably, he frowned and then relaxed his brows.

Ye Zhenzhen wiped her tears carelessly and said, "Li, Li You, thank you, thank you."

"You don't have to be polite to me."

Ye Zhenzhen looked around and asked, "Are the floods serious here?"

Li You explained, "It's not bad. There was originally a river here. When the flood came here, it flowed directly into the sea along with the river, which was the end of Qiannu."

"Then where is this place?"

"This is within Binhai County."

Ye Zhenzhen didn't know where Binhai was, but from the name she knew it was not far from the sea. She didn't even know how far she was rushed out. At that time, she was drifting along with the water and encountered a large slope. The water rushed like a waterfall. When she fell down, she fainted. When she woke up again, she was already here.

She had a piece of wood to protect herself, so Ji Wu Jiu... Thinking of this, she felt a twinge of pain in her heart.

Ji Liyou brought Ye Zhenzhen to a house. The house is located on the edge of a small village, with a blue brick house and a spacious courtyard with a big mulberry tree planted in the courtyard. It looks like an ordinary farm house.

Ye Zhenzhen took a hot bath and put on the clean clothes Ji Liyou found for her. After that, she sorted out her belongings, and found that none of them had been lost in the flood. Only her purse, a folding fan, and a bottle of medicine were left. The purse and Ji Wu Jiu's are a pair, the folding fan was given to her by Ji Wu Jiu, and the medicine was used by her to scare Ji Wu Jiu...

Ye Zhenzhen opened the folding fan. The surface of the fan was made of silk and was not damaged in the water. However, the pictures and inscriptions on the fan were blurred by the water. She touched the fan and thought about how she hit him with the fan and he ducked while begging for mercy with a smile. She felt like an awl was pricking her heart.

No, he can't die, he will definitely not die. He is the true dragon emperor chosen by God, and he will not die easily. He is the omnipotent Ji Wu Jiu, how could he die?

Ye Zhenzhen held the fan in her arms, thinking in confusion that she must find him.

But now, the first thing she has to do is find a way to escape.

Ye Zhenzhen deliberately walked out in a swagger, and sure enough, as soon as she took three steps out the door, someone immediately walked into the yard and respectfully asked her what she needed. She made up an excuse casually, and returned to the house with his good eyes on her.

She was placed under house arrest, with countless people watching her. Ye Zhenzhen sat at the table, patting her forehead gently with her index finger, forcing herself to calm down and think.

With such a huge flood, it was impossible for neither she nor Ji Liyou to confirm Ji Wu Jiu's condition so quickly. That's why Ji Liyou hid here and stood still.

The first person to know about Ji Wu Jiu’s life and death should be the imperial court.

Ji Wu Jiu is the emperor. If the emperor dies, the world will definitely know about it. Ye Zhen Zhen's heart started to worry again. If Ji Wu Jiu was really... dead, she would know it in a few days or in ten days.

But now that she is under house arrest and news from the outside cannot come in, how can she know?

Or maybe Ji Liyou deliberately sent false news to her?

Ye Zhenzhen thought of Ji Liyou again. He was Ji Wu Jiu's cousin. After Ji Wu Jiu, he was more qualified than Tan Ji to inherit the throne. Ji Liyou is keeping her in prison now because he is not sure about Ji Wu Jiu's life and death, so he doesn't know how to deal with her. In fact, judging from Ji Liyou's reaction, we can guess Ji Wu Jiu's situation. If Ji Liyou kept her under house arrest or took her north, then Ji Wu Jiu should be still alive and she could be used. If Ji Liyou wants to kill her, it must be because Ji Wu Jiu is already dead... She will probably die more calmly by then.

Ye Zhenzhen summarized her current situation and came up with two action guidelines. First, don’t believe a word Ji Liyou and the people around him say. Second, closely observe Ji Liyou's attitude while not giving up the opportunity to escape.

At this time, Ji Liyou knocked on the door and delivered the meal.

Ye Zhenzhen opened the door and asked him to come in. Ji Liyou saw her eyes were red and her expression was haggard, and knowing that she had cried again, he comforted her. Ye Zhenzhen thanked her, but kept rolling her eyes in her heart.

Ji Liyou felt uncomfortable seeing her working so hard for that person.

The two stopped in this small village for a few days. During this period, Ye Zhenzhen tried several escape strategies, but none of them were successful. Ji Liyou would visit her every day and chat with her, playing the role of a gentle, friendly and caring good friend. Ye Zhenzhen's acting skills were not as good as Ji Liyou's. At first, she rolled her eyes in her heart, but then accidentally, her eyes showed on her face.

Ji Liyou looked stern.

Ye Zhenzhen felt a little guilty and a little impatient, "I'm a little sleepy and want to go to bed earlier. Brother Li, thank you, I feel much better."

"It should be much better." He stood up and looked down at her, "When I become the emperor, you will still be the queen. There is nothing wrong with that. You don't need to worry."

Ye Zhenzhen suddenly raised her head and looked at him in surprise.

He laughed, the laughter was low and sounded in the quiet room. Ye Zhenzhen heard that the laughter sounded like a ghost seeking his life in the dark night. She lowered her head and rolled her eyes, not knowing how to respond.

Ji Liyou smiled and said, "Don't you already know this a long time ago? I'm sorry that you have been pretending for so many days, my sister Zhenzhen."

Just right, no need to pretend. Ye Zhenzhen took a long breath and said bluntly, "He won't die."

"Really, but I heard that his body has been found, and now the whole country is going to hold a national mourning." He smiled more and more proudly, "I will sell you a favor and allow you to wear mourning for your ex-husband for a few days, what do you think? ”

Calm down, calm down, Ye Zhenzhen clenched her fists, thinking, she must not believe his lies. She closed her eyes and said, "There is one thing I have never understood. It didn't rain on the day of the incident, so how could a flood suddenly break out? And, although I have never seen a flood, how could the sound of the flood bursting the embankments be the same as an earthquake? ? After much deliberation, there is only one explanation - someone used explosives to blow up the river embankment. Don't you think so?"

He laughed and tapped her head gently with the folding fan, "Smart."

Ye Zhenzhen suddenly felt cold all over. This man created a flood just to kill one person. This piece of land was fertile, and the autumn harvest season would come in one month. However, with his explosion, thousands of hectares of fertile fields were turned into a swamp in an instant, and the people's hard work of more than half a year was wiped out. The most terrifying thing is how many innocent souls this flood will cause to die in vain!

Even the roots of Ye Zhenzhen’s teeth were feeling cold. She stood up and walked to Ji Liyou, looking up at her with a calm expression.

Ji Liyou was also looking at her. He was attracted by her pure eyes. These eyes contained everything he desired. Clean, pure, simple, happy. It is moss that grows in the dark, damp, cold, and cannot see the light of day. She is a flower that blooms in the sun, bright, warm, and supremely pure. She was to him like a magnet to a sword, with an innate and inescapable attraction. No matter how sharp you are, you will still be able to walk towards her uncontrollably, get close to her, and get her.

Bah!

Ji Liyou was beaten so hard that he came to his senses. He kept his face tilted to the side and looked at Ye Zhenzhen, his eyes finally turning cold.

"Beast!" Ye Zhenzhen scolded, "Do you know how many people you have killed?!"

"I don't know," he said coldly, "I only know that if I want to get it, I must get it."

Ye Zhenzhen was so angry that she was trembling. How could there be such a person! So cold-blooded and shameless! Worse than a beast!

"You only know how many people I killed, but do you know how many people my uncle, your **** father-in-law, killed? Back then, no one in the world could help me, so why should I care about it now? They? The so-called country is just a pile of corpses." He caressed her face and suddenly smiled brightly.

The author has something to say: Well, there is no amnesia plot...

I found that readers have rich imaginations. In Song Ruogu's mind, they were thinking about earthquakes, and here they were thinking about amnesia. Everyone's imagination was quite high, haha
