Twin Space: The Evil King Should Never Think of Taking the Throne

After Ji Cheng dealt with government affairs, he hurried to Jinxiu Palace. The maids in Jinxiu Palace were quite surprised to see him, after all, he had not been here for a long time.

Wen Ning was also surprised to see Ji Cheng, because she had heard from Chi Ming that he had been away for a while, and she didn't know what he was doing in the Central Plains. In the past, he often went out and left the government affairs to Tong Lu, so he was not afraid that someone would take advantage of the opportunity to take his place.

As soon as Ji Cheng entered the room, Wen Ning could see that he had been through a lot. From a distance, Ji Cheng seemed to have become much more haggard. On the other hand, Wen Ning felt particularly comfortable in Ji Cheng's absence and had gained a lot of weight.

Obviously, Ji Cheng also found that Wen Ning had gained weight after seeing her. He glanced at Chi Ming who was following Wen Ning closely, and felt unhappy.

"Ning'er, I haven't seen you for a long time. You have become a lot plumper and more charming."

Ji Cheng's heartfelt praise was first met with a cold snort from Chi Ming. Ji Cheng raised his eyes to glance at Chi Ming and said in a cold voice:

"Fuyuan, go prepare some fragrant water for me. I want to take a bath."

When Chi Ming heard that Ji Cheng was going to bathe in Jinxiu Palace, his eyes almost popped out. His murderous look made Ji Cheng feel much happier. He just looked at the smug Ji Cheng without moving.

Wen Ning looked at Ji Cheng a little embarrassedly, and then said to Chi Ming in a gentle voice:

"A Ming, go and make some arrangements. A Cheng has been traveling a long way and needs to wash up first."

Chi Ming wanted to get angry, but seeing Wen Ning begging him, he suppressed his anger and went downstairs to order people to prepare a fragrant bath for Ji Cheng. Ji Cheng watched Chi Ming leave and said with an unhappy face:

"Ning'er, how do you use this Fuyuan? If it doesn't suit your taste, I can get you another palace servant. Even if you want Fulin, I can bear the pain and give him up."

"Ah Cheng, don't always call Ah Ming Fuyuan Fuyuan. He is such a proud man. It is not easy for him to endure humiliation and stay in this harem. Why should you do the same?"

"Ning'er, speak for him."

Wen Ning saw Ji Cheng's voice was eight degrees higher and his face was not good. She knew that Ji Cheng was angry and looked helpless. It was too difficult for her to be caught between these two men.

On one hand, she had to suppress Ji Cheng, not letting him embarrass Chi Ming and save Chi Ming's life, and on the other hand, she had to persuade Chi Ming, hoping that he would think more about Ji Cheng and not bear a grudge against him. But now both of them blamed her, making her feel like a nobody.

"Ah Cheng, why don't you let him go? I am enough of a caged bird in this deep palace."

Wen Ning accepted her fate, but Chi Ming still had a bright future ahead of him. She didn't want to ruin the life of such a talented person because of her.

"Okay! I am not such an unkind person. Ning'er has asked me for help, and I will not embarrass a eunuch. I will let him go."

"Ning'er, if you don't leave, I won't leave either. Your Majesty, please let Ning'er go! She doesn't belong to you, nor does she belong to the Ming Palace."

When Chi Ming returned to the hall, he heard Ji Cheng's words that he wanted to let him go, but he knelt down without hesitation. He wanted to take Wen Ning with him.

"Ning'er is my concubine Ning, and can only stay in the Ming Palace."

Unless I marry my little queen. Ji Cheng added in his heart, then looked at Wen Ning, his eyes full of tenderness, and said with a smile:

"I believe Ning'er will not leave me."

Wen Ning felt uncomfortable looking at Ji Cheng like this. After weighing the pros and cons, she still hoped to be able to accompany Ji Cheng in the palace.

"Ning'er will of course accompany Ah Cheng well."

Ji Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the kneeling Chi Ming, then stood up and went to the bathroom. He wanted to take a shower first to wash off the dust on the way, and then ask about the sheepskin scroll. As for Chi Ming's matter, it was nothing at all.

Chi Ming felt furious when he saw Ji Cheng who was acting so arrogant. He thought that he became such a coward because of this man. If he had the chance, he really wanted to kill him.

"Ning'er, why do you always side with this selfish person and let him do whatever he wants?"

"A Ming, you know that many people in the court are obsessed with the fact that he has no children. He has no one else around him. If he lets me go, the court will be even more chaotic in the future. Besides, Uncle Jing's attitude is unclear, so he dare not take any other actions."

"Then let him take in a few concubines. Within half a year, good news will spread. Then..."

"A Ming! If he wanted to take a concubine, he would have done so long ago. He wouldn't have waited until he was almost thirty."

"He didn't take a concubine before because he had some plans for you. Now he..."

Before Chi Ming could finish his words, he saw Ji Cheng standing at the door in a refreshing outfit, his hair was still wet, and he had changed into comfortable clothes.

"Why... do you wash so fast?"

Chi Ming was really impressed by Ji Cheng. Was he afraid of missing something, so he hurried over after washing?

"It's not impossible for me to let you go alone."

Ji Cheng thought about it, and he remembered that his little queen was a person who would not tolerate any injustice. If she knew that he had a concubine before marrying her, she would definitely feel uncomfortable, so he had to think of a way to kill two birds with one stone. So, he hurriedly finished washing and heard Chi Ming's words.

Hearing Ji Cheng say this, Chi Ming and Wen Ning both looked at him, as if they saw hope.

"I do have reasons to keep Ning'er in the harem now, but I can find a way to let you leave if I have the chance in the future. However, before you leave, you must be my concubine and palace servant, and don't leave me alone. In addition, I want an ancient book that records ancient formations and spiritual weapons. Ning'er, please help me find it."

Wen Ning covered his mouth and laughed, raised his hand to call the palace maid beside him over, and then said a few words in her ear. After the palace maid bowed and left, Wen Ning invited Ji Cheng to sit down and eat together.

Ji Cheng sat down obediently, staring at Wen Ning with anticipation. Wen Ning ignored his anticipation and just silently picked up some food for him. When she saw that Ji Cheng had no intention of eating and was staring at her, she asked helplessly:

"The ancient book is important to you?"

"Yes, it's important."

"What's it for?"

"Check the spiritual weapon. I can't tell you the details, but it is definitely very important. If you can help me solve this problem, I will let you go if there is a chance in the future."

Ji Cheng spoke word by word, his attitude was particularly gentle, and there was light in his eyes. Wen Ning looked at him with a smile on his face. At this time, a little palace maid came in from outside and took out an ancient box and handed it to Wen Ning.

"Your Majesty, the things are here."

Wen Ning took the box and handed it to Ji Cheng and said:

"This ancient book talks about something very mysterious. I don't know whether it's true or not, but since Ah Cheng wants it, just take it!"

Seeing this, Ji Cheng quickly put the box away, and a smile spread across his face. After the two of them had dinner together, Ji Cheng hurriedly left. Chi Ming, who was standing by, was skeptical about Ji Cheng's words, but Wen Ning believed them without a doubt. Chi Ming asked her why she believed in Ji Cheng so much, but Wen Ning did not answer, but just said something without a beginning or an end:

"Ah Cheng has someone in his heart."
