Chapter 4 He Wasn't Like a Person at All

ould replace Ji Lingyan to get married, she readily agreed: "Alright, I agree." 。As long as you obediently marry off, don't even think about running away. The dowry that is due to you, I will natural...After ginger concubine spoke, she ordered the maidservant to take her to Nan Gong Ye's courtyard.

Qingxuan had a keen sense of smell. After crossing over, she unexpectedly found that her sense of smell was the same as before.

As soon as Qingxuan reached the door of Nangong Ye's room, a pungent sour smell, mixed with the stench of decay, wafted out.

Xipi frowned, the smell was so heavy even before the door was opened. It was easy to imagine what it was like inside. No wonder the maid from the Ji Du Hou's mansion had said that Nangong Ye's room reeked of stench.

The maidservant brought her to the door and stopped: "His Royal Highness is inside now. You go in yourself."

The maid's tone was extremely arrogant, as if she were the mistress and the other person was the servant. This maid was ordering her around.

Before Qingxuan could speak, the maid turned and left.

Qingxuan said coldly, "This princess hasn't let you leave yet."

The maid stopped in her tracks: “You really think you are the princess”

Qingxuan lifted the bridal veil, only to meet the disdainful gaze of a maidservant.

At this moment, she realized that in Nan Gong Ye's courtyard, there were only her and the maidservant besides anyone else.

Seeing this situation, Qingxuan became even more certain that Jiang Fei had long since given up on Nangong Ye and was now just waiting for him to die.

Even though Nangong Ye was inside right now, the maid didn't seem to care. She said boldly, "Who do you think you are The King is about to die, you're marrying in just to be buried with him."

Even the maidservant glanced at her, then sneered, "Concubine Jiang said that from today until the King recovers, you are not allowed to leave this courtyard. You truly can glorify yourself and pretend to be a princess!"

The maid finished speaking without looking at her again, raised her head and turned to leave. In the now silent courtyard, only Qingxuan stood alone in her wedding dress.

At that moment, Qingxuan cast a careful glance around the courtyard. She discovered that it had been neglected for quite some time. Piles of withered leaves lay strewn about, and on the stone table sat checkers covered in a thick layer of dust. Some pieces had even fallen to the ground.

Thinking of Nangong Ye lying inside, like a discarded pawn that had fallen, Qing Xuan frowned and turned to walk to the door of Nangong Ye's room.

"My lord, I am Ji Qingxuan, the princess who is marrying you today."

She finished speaking, but there was no response from inside.

It seems likely that the people inside can't even speak, or the situation is even worse.

Qingxuan no longer hesitated and pushed the door open directly.

She was already prepared, but the moment she pushed open the door, the pungent stench inside made her gag.

What is this thing

At this moment, Qingxuan noticed a thin bamboo tube extending directly from the window to Nangong Ye's bed. There was a curtain blocking the bed, and the bamboo tube went through a small hole deliberately cut out of the curtain.

She was puzzled.

Because the smell in the room was too strong, she opened all the windows in the room to ventilate before lifting the curtains.

After opening all the windows, she walked to Nan Gong Ye's bedside and, through the curtain, called out again: "Your Highness"

There is still no response.

Even though Qingxuan had already mentally prepared herself, the moment she lifted the curtain, she was so shocked by the sight before her that she couldn't even breathe.

Lying in bed right now, they really don't look like a person!

Nangong Ye's entire face was already rotting, with white maggots even writhing on it.

If not for the bloodshot eyes that were fixed on her, and his long eyelashes trembling slightly, she truly would have thought she was looking at a corpse that had been lying around for ages!

After a long silence, Qingxuan withdrew the shock from her eyes and tentatively asked, "Your Highness, can you hear me speaking"

At this moment, Nangong Ye glared at her resentfully, as if she were the culprit who had made him look so disfigured.

Qingxuan found it amusing and couldn't help but chuckle: "It's good that you still have the energy to glare at me. But rest assured, as long as you haven't lost your last breath, I can revive you."

Nan Gong Ye glared at her, a trace of disbelief flashing in his eyes.t for a moment, and quickly made a choice between the two options.Now that she's back at the palace, she doesn't really need guards protecting her, only when she goes out.That is to say, what she need...
