Chapter 819 Felt A Little Bitter
Why? asked Wanyan Luosang at once.
Wanyan Jin closed his eyes. I heard that the Emperor went to great lengths to marry her. If not for love, what else could be the reason?
He had found out all this through his subordinates investigations.
Although he had long been aware of Lu Liangweis situation, he felt a little bitter today for some reason. The feeling produced a slight itch in his throat, and he could not help holding onto the pillar next to him and coughing violently.
Startled, Wanyan Luosang rushed over and patted his back. Is your illness acting up
again?
Wanyan Jins coughing fit was much worse this time, preventing him from answering her.
Seeing her brother in such a state removed all other thoughts from Wanyan Luosangs mind, leaving her with only distress.
In other peoples eyes, her brother was a callous and ruthless person who was willing to kill his brothers and nephews for the sake of power.
However, she knew that he had suffered a lot since he was a child. Due to his birth mothers lowly status, he was thrown into the sheepfold right after he was born and practically grew up there. His life had been basically a living h.e.l.l, which was why he sometimes needed to be menacing and vicious.
Brother, there are many great physicians in Cathay. Since were here, lets visit one, she suggested. After the coughing had finally subsided, Wanyan Jin waved a hand. No need. He knew his own condition well.
Wanyan Luosang was anxious. But
Thats enough, Luosang. Lets go, Wanyan Jin cut her off.
Wanyan Luosang stopped talking reluctantly.
When Long Yang and Lu Liangwei arrived at Jade Dew Hall, they b.u.mped into Lu Hetian and the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess at the entrance.
Before Lu Hetian and the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess could greet them, Lu Liangwei broke free from Long Yangs grasp and hurried up to them.
Grandmother, Dad.
The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess and Lu Hetian almost jumped in fright. Weiwei, walk slower! the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess cried anxiously.
Lu Hetian, on the other hand, strode forward and reached out to support Lu Liangwei.
Lu Liangweis eyes reddened at the sight of her father. She had not seen him for a few months, and she missed him terribly. Dad she called out softly, her lip trembling.
Lu Hetian felt the same.
He had not seen his daughter for the past few months. Now that she was standing in front of him, he wanted to hug her badly.
However, now was not the right time, and he could only endure his longing.
Seeing his precious daughters red-rimmed eyes, he felt pain grip his heart. Did that sc.u.mbag Emperor bully her?
She seemed so miserable.
How are you feeling, Weiwei? Have you been eating well? Have you been sleeping well?
Remembering that she was pregnant, Lu Hetian grew nervous and started peppering her with questions.
Pursing her lips, Lu Liangwei suddenly reached out to him. Dad, I missed you so much.
Lu Hetians eyes turned red, and he eventually could not help reaching out to take his precious daughter into his arms, but all he embraced was air.
Long Yang, who had been standing behind Lu Liangwei, had stepped forward at some point and pulled her to him. Lu Hetians arms froze in midair, and he looked at Long Yang with restrained anger.
Long Yang pretended not to notice it and smiled. Its cold out here. Lets head inside, shall we?
Lu Hetian longed to tear this p.r.i.c.k to shreds, but his expression remained respectful. Very well.
However, the moment he entered Jade Dew Hall, he could no longer contain his rage.
Ling Lihua was sitting in a corner, and next to her was Ji Qingyuan, cozying up to her. He muttered something to her, drawing a smile from her usually cold face.
