Hey, you are reborn too?

He suddenly became very excited about what the emperor would do to him after he discovered that he was different from his previous life.

After all, he thought it was boring to play chess with that guy Jiang Yu.

If I could play chess with the man in front of me in this life, then we would be evenly matched.

The man in front of him was the most dazzling existence in Dayuan at present. Although he still had shortcomings in some aspects, he was much stronger than his successor Jiang Yu in the previous life.

In his previous life, Jiang Mian had been planning carefully for several years when playing chess with Jiang Yu. But when he actually broke into the abyss, he was really shocked.

He couldn't help but wonder what he had been planning for all those years.

If he had known that Jiang Yu was so fragile, he wouldn't have had to keep a low profile for so long.

Of course, he had to admit that Beili’s internal affairs were complicated and there were various problems that could not be solved in a short time.

But all in all, he felt that Jiang Yu was not worthy of being his opponent.

Since Jiang Yu took office, all the problems accumulated in Dayuan broke out at once.

Jiang Yu not only did not pity the common people who could not afford to eat and set lighter taxes, but he allowed the officials to levy heavy taxes.

Because a large part of the money extorted from the people by officials will eventually flow into Jiang Yu’s own small treasury.

And for his own selfish interests, Jiang Yu actually acquiesced in the officials robbing the people of their livelihood.

As a result, the people were burdened with heavy taxes and not only had their skin peeled off several times, but even their marrow was sucked clean by the termites.

While the people were living in dire straits, the capital of Dayuan was still prosperous and peaceful.

Jiang Yu's throne came from military power, so he was particularly wary of military officials, especially those who held military power.

Therefore, when other generals were defeated and the Xie father and son had some ability to resist, Jiang Yu immediately panicked.

He was reckless and forgot about the countless people behind General Xie and the many cities under their protection. When the battle report came, Jiang Yu had only one thought in his mind.

Kill! The Xie family father and son who have such a powerful army deserve to be killed!

Who knows if they will turn around and attack the imperial city and declare themselves king after repelling the Beili army?

The extreme lack of confidence in his own ability made this poor chess player go to extremes.

He called back two generals who had fought bravely for him on the front lines in his previous life, thus destroying his slim chance of a comeback.

Jiang Mian could only sneer at Jiang Yu's move.

But he also had to admit that if Jiang Yu had not been so confused, he would not have been able to capture Dayuan with his army so quickly.

Although he won beautifully, Jiang Mian still didn't feel satisfied.

He felt that when playing against a chess player like Jiang Yu, he didn't even need to use his full strength to easily win.

There is no sense of winning at all.

There was a huge difference in chess skills between the two. Jiang Mian felt that he was not engaging in a back-and-forth attack and defense with the opponent, but was instead engaging in a massacre.

Maybe Jiang Mian himself didn't realize that he was proud in his bones.

In fact, he felt disdain for a mediocre person like Jiang Yu.

Jiang Mian can only feel honored to have met his worthy opponent in this life.

After all, he was not afraid of failure. What he was more afraid of was that he had been standing still for so many years without any growth.

His heart suddenly beat again.

Yes, he forgot the most important thing.

In his previous life, he had one unfulfilled wish - to spend his life with Avi.

If I can win these political struggles in this life, I will do everything I can to realize that wish.

"Well……"

Jiang Mian felt a sharp pain in his heart and couldn't help but put his hand over his chest and frowned slightly.

The pain in my body became more and more severe, and my abdomen began to cramp.

A bone-chilling chill spread from every part of my body, and my fingertips suddenly lost their temperature.

There was a buzzing sound in his ears, and Jiang Mian felt as if something in his abdomen was about to come up, and his upper abdomen was bloated and stuffy.

He gritted his teeth and pinched his temples. No, he couldn't just fall down like this. There were people waiting for him...

As I thought this, a rusty taste rose in my throat.

Jiang Mian had long been accustomed to the familiar reaction over the years. He tilted his head slightly, and as he lowered his head, he spat the warm blood into the copper basin.

His ears were still vibrating and Jiang Mian's breathing became heavy.

"Little Lord!"

The voice sounded a little anxious. It was Zeng Qing.

Jiang Mian closed his eyes silently, feeling a spasm in his fingertips. His heart seemed to be tightly grasped, making it hard for him to breathe.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It seemed that if he really wanted to fulfill his wish of spending his life with Avi, the biggest obstacle would be the life and death in his body.

After being reborn, Jiang Mian knew all the events, big and small, very well. He thought to himself that even if he made some mistakes in political schemes, he would never lose his life.

"Young Master, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. Do you need to take medicine? I have already prepared the medicine on my own initiative."

Zeng Qing's voice came again, this time not with anxiety, but with caution and some care.

Jiang Mian breathed a sigh of relief and pinched his brows hard: "Bring it up."

He closed his eyes and opened them again, and a bowl of steaming black bitter medicine was placed beside his bed.

Jiang Mian held the pill in one hand, frowning, but without saying anything more, he tilted his head back, rolled his Adam's apple twice, and drank the bowl of bitter medicine in one gulp.

Bitterness spreads to the tip of the tongue, and an overbearing burning sensation comes from the throat.

Jiang Mian's hands were shaking as he tried to put down the medicine bowl.

He stared at the place where the medicine bowl was originally placed, and moved his fingers several times before finally finding the right angle for placement. It took a lot of effort to pry his trembling fingers away from the edge of the medicine bowl.

As soon as he put the medicine bowl away, Jiang Mian couldn't help but shiver. His whole body trembled and cold sweat covered his back.

Although the pain in my heart was relieved a little, my chest still felt stuffy.

His breathing suddenly stopped, and before he could react, the sweet smell of blood filled his mouth.

What's going on? I just took the medicine!

Jiang Mian didn't have time to think, and immediately turned his head to the copper basin. His throat tightened, and bright red liquid flowed into the copper basin.

The Emperor and Concubine Chen had just left, and the countless glazed lamps lit in the side hall of Tingyun Pavilion had not yet been extinguished. They were still burning quietly, illuminating the entire inner hall as bright as day.

Under the bright light, everything in the hall seemed to be visible.

Jiang Mian watched the blood dripping down his chin, slowly but irreversibly blending into the water in the copper basin below.

The originally clear water in the basin had now been dyed light red. As the thick red blood flowed in, the color of the clear water continued to deepen.

Little by little, drop by drop, it finally gathered into a basin of deep red blood.

"Your Highness!" Zeng Qing shouted until his voice broke.

After all, he still remembered the rules. Although there were many people from the Tianhong Sect around Jiang Mian, there were also many palace servants who knew about the Tianhong Sect. In private, he could call Jiang Mian "Young Master", but he could never say that in public.

Seeing the young master vomiting blood twice, he was extremely anxious.

Oh no, that medicine is finally no longer effective?
