When am I normal

Ji Yao held Wu Shen's shoulders tightly, bent slightly and looked at Wu Shen, "Shen'er, I don't want to be an emperor, I'm not suitable to be an emperor! You know, I've hated those set rules since I was a child!"

"This is what you were born to do!"

"Should I be born to be emperor!?"

Wu Shen looked stern, "Yes! Because you were born in the royal family, you are the eldest daughter of the late emperor who valued and loved the most."

Ji Yao helped his forehead, and sighed, "Why do you all care so much about birth? Why do you have to have someone surnamed Ji to sit on this throne? Why can't it be someone else with talent? My kinsman, why don’t you marry me!?”

"Jing Tan, what do you think? Don't think too simply. If it wasn't because you are the eldest daughter of the emperor, why would you be able to wear such a luxurious brocade?" Wu Shen tugged at Ji Yao's sleeve embroidered with dark gold thread, " And why can you eat and drink well? Even a bowl of mung bean paste, which is no more than ordinary, has to be made by the top chefs in the whole country?"

"This is everyone's fate. Do you think that poor people don't want to sit on the throne and live a life of glory and wealth? But they were not born in Ji's family, so they don't have this fate, they have to eat chaff and swallow vegetables."

"Jing Tan, you can live such a life, so you have to be the emperor and serve the people."

From birth to now, Ji Yao has never been exposed to such things in her 19 years of life, and she has never thought about these problems. Now she is stunned by Wu Shen's words, and she can't react for a while .

Wu Shen pointed to himself, "And me, I'm the son of a brothel concubine, so I can't be your queen."

Ji Yao frowned, and the muscles on her face trembled with anger, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" She clenched her cheeks tightly, "I hate this rule! I must abolish it!"

Ji Yao was like a crazy calf, running rampant in the room, Wu Shen grabbed her sleeve, but was almost brought to the ground by her giant strength, Ji Yao almost bumped into Wu Shen, Quickly stopped, and stood in front of Wu Shen, "You wait for me, wait for me!" After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence, "Shen'er, don't play your temper again, you must be sure to go to court tomorrow morning." Come!"

Wu Shen shook hands that stopped in mid-air, and sighed helplessly. She knew that Ji Yao was about to deal another heavy blow to the court, but she was powerless to stop it.

After Ji Yao came out from Prince Xian's mansion, he did not return to the prison, but turned around and went to the side hall where Ye Er lived. Poor Eunuch Xia and the guard of honor carrying the emperor squatted at the gate of the prison with his neck held high like a puppy. After waiting for a long time, he scratched his head and looked distressed.

Ye'er woke up yesterday from the coma that lasted for several days and nights. The dull pain in her chest reminded her of what happened before she lost consciousness. When she opened her eyes, there was only the maid who was sent to take care of her body, but There was no sign of Jian Xing.No need to ask, Jian Xing must have been detained by the emperor.Originally thought that he was going to be killed by Xiao Linzi's knife, but he didn't know that the two of them had committed such a heinous crime, but the emperor was still willing to spend his energy to heal an insignificant self.Apart from wanting to be grateful to Dade, she can think of no other way to repay Ji Yao in the future.

"Ye'er."

Ye'er raised her body slightly when she heard the sound, and whispered in surprise, "Your Majesty?!" She wanted to stand up and salute, but Ji Yao walked over quickly, and lay back on the bed with her shoulders pressed.

"You are still seriously injured, so don't do it again, Fan Li."

Ji Yao's voice was so gentle that Ye'er had never heard before. Tears filled her eyes, "Your Majesty..." Ye'er just sniffed, the wound on her chest was painfully pulled, then The pain pierced her heart, which made her tremble on the bed, and her tears were even more turbulent.

"why are you crying?"

"Your Majesty, it hurts, Ye'er hurts so much!"

Ji Yao panicked, stood up hastily, and shouted to the outside, "Emperor... Imperial Physician! Quick, come quickly!" She pulled a maid beside her, "Go! Xuan Imperial Physician!"

Ye Er tugged at her sleeve to stop, "No, no, Your Majesty, Ye Er is really happy."

Ji Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "Hi! I'm so scared." She waved her hand at the court lady to let her back down, then brought a stool by herself, placed it beside the bed, smoothed the hem of the dragon robe, and sat down, " How are you feeling now? Is it still in pain?"

"Well, it still hurts a little." Ye'er told the truth with her face flushed, holding back her tears.

Ji Yao sighed, "It's such a long and deep wound, it's no wonder it's been a few days and it still hurts."

Ye'er hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, Jane..."

"King Bei Xiao is in prison." Ji Yao's voice became cold.

"...Yes." Ye'er looked at Ji Yao's face, knowing that it would not be good to ask too many questions, so she had to put away all kinds of worries and doubts in her heart.

"I know you miss her and worry about her." Ji Yao shook Ye'er's hand, "But if it wasn't for her, you wouldn't be hurt either. Don't foolishly hurt yourself for her anymore!"

Ye'er lay flat on the bed, the tears that had been held back, but after hearing Ji Yao's words, she couldn't help rolling down from the corners of her eyes one by one, dripping into her ear cavity. "Your Majesty, if you don't do it for her, you will hurt yourself."

Ji Yao frowned slightly. She couldn't bear people crying, and she didn't want to see women cry in front of her.Although Ye'er's tears were not as shocking as Wu Shen's in her heart, they still made her feel pity.But she is not blind and ignorant, she always knows what is right and wrong, what position Jian Xing stands on, and what stand she stands on, she can always tell the difference.Ji Yao didn't respond directly to Ye'er's words, but there was a hint of approval in his eyes.

"Just like you did to His Royal Highness, even if you know it's a fire, don't you still rush towards it?"

"So, you came to Nanling?" Ji Yao asked back, she was full of curiosity, doubts and puzzles about Jian Xing sending Ye'er, who was only ten years old, to Nanling. "Even if you knew her purpose of infidelity, you still did it because you loved her?"

Ye'er paused for a moment, as if she was a little surprised by Ji Yao's straightforward question, then she collected herself and looked straight into Ji Yao's eyes, "If the emperor is Ye'er and the virtuous king is Jian Xing, what would you do? "

Ji Yao remained silent, she was overwhelmed by the question.

"Ye'er is sure that the emperor will make the same choice as Ye'er."

"No!" Ji Yao immediately retorted, "I won't, I don't want to fall into the trap of others, even the one I love the most."

Ye'er smiled wryly and shook her head, "It's just a hypothesis, the emperor may not be able to understand Ye'er's suffering in person."

Ji Yao frowned, "I hate that everyone of you is whispering in your ears, this difficulty, which one is wrong, I don't like it." She raised her eyes and looked straight at Ye'er, "To put it bluntly, Jian Xing is just Is it my Nanling who covets my throne? If she is suffering, where is it? I have never brought the Nanling army to do any harm to Bei Xiao."

Ye'er wiped away her tears, "...Probably because I was born in the royal family and couldn't help myself."

"I'm really tired of these fate theories! Identity theories!" Ji Yao stood up abruptly, clenched her fists with her hands hanging by her side, she pointed at Ye'er, "Even if you finally recognize the facts and abandon the dark to the bright, I will I can't forget that you let down my close relationship with you in the past few years! You are a vicious woman! You talked about love, but you actually endured it for five years, just to infringe my country!"

"Then why did the emperor save me!" Ye'er unconsciously raised her voice, causing her throat to itch and coughing several times.

Ji Yao couldn't bear to support her again, and patted her on the back to make her feel better. She said helplessly, "I am different from you... You can hurt others because of the so-called righteous reasons." , Abandon my lover. I won’t, I don’t care about the gossip outside, nor do I care about my status or even my bloodline.”

"you?"

Ji Yao sighed and waved her hands, "What are you talking about!" She tucked in the quilt for Ye'er, and was about to turn around and leave, but Ye'er grabbed her fingers.

"Your Majesty, Ye'er thank you."

Ji Yao didn't look back, "Thank you for what? You saved your life?" And he paid a lot of money. I don't know if Wu Shen has noticed that the green pearl has long since disappeared.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing Jian Xing."

Ji Yao didn't like being punctured when spreading love, so she snorted awkwardly, "I still have to think about whether Jian Xing's life will be saved or not, you thanked you too early!" Ignoring Ye'er's reaction, he drove away from the side hall.

On the morning of the second day, Ji Yao was uncharacteristically not late as usual, but put on the dragon robe neatly under the service of Ah Chao, and never dared to stay on the bed for half an hour like before. Then at the end of the day, when I was in a hurry to enter the hall, I didn't even put on my outer robe, and my middle skirt was put on backwards.

She was waiting for Wu Shen. She made an agreement with Wu Shen. Although it was unilateral, but with Wu Shen's temperament, she should appear today.

Sure enough, Wu Shen, dressed in a prince's python robe, stepped in through the side door holding a wat board.Seeing that Ji Yao was already sitting on the dragon chair with a domineering and majestic appearance, she was a little surprised, but quickly calmed down, knelt down to Ji Yao, and saluted.

"My minister Wu Shanwei attends..."

"Shen'er, come here." Ji Yao interrupted her.

Wu Shen raised his head and saw Ji Yao patted her side.The wide and long dragon chair only accommodated Ji Yao, and there was room to accommodate a petite Wu Shen.Wu Shen turned his head and looked around, frowned slightly angrily, "Your Majesty, this is impossible, it's too unruly." Ji Yao was just messing around, how could the dragon chair be used to let people sit together casually?

Ji Yao seemed to know that she would say that, sighed, and said, "Okay, you sit on the left side." She pointed to the upholstered chair on the left side of His Highness.Opposite this chair is the special seat for King Yu on the right.

Wu Shen also knew that it would not be good not to follow her any longer, so he reluctantly took the seat that belonged to her for the first time.She patronizes her inner entanglement, and how can she see Ji Yao's tricky and cheap appearance? Ji Yao also knew that it was impossible for Wu Shen to sit on the dragon chair with her, so she prepared Wu Shen He had never sat on the throne of the virtuous king before, and then he set the conditions extremely high from the beginning, and then seemed to be the second best, so Wu Shen willingly sat on the chair.In the past, Wu Shen had always stood up for morning court, and she felt very distressed. This time, Wu Shen must not be allowed to stand still. After all...today's morning court will definitely last for a long time.
