782 The Power of the Little Munchkins
Yu Wan was extremely sure that this was not the Ghost King’s memories. This was because according to the information she had learned from the two little girls, the Ghost King liked women with extremely thin waists. He liked graceful women. The reason why Madam Li and Madam Yu could enter the Ghost King’s eyes was not only because of their distant relationship, but more importantly, the two of them had the thinnest waist in the entire palace.
So this was Yan Jiuchao’s true preference? He liked chubby girls! It was really hard for him to not despise her for being so thin…
Also, the Ghost King was really heartless to the beauties in the palace. He really could not be considered to have a good temper towards them, let alone be angry for a beauty in public. Yan Jiuchao’s doting and possessiveness towards her were all his own.
He had hidden it in his heart for a long time, but he did not dare to show it because he was a man.
Perhaps it was because she suddenly knew the truth, but when she thought back to their seemingly ordinary interaction, she actually felt sweet at this moment.
Thinking about it carefully, it might not be a bad thing that his brain was damaged. After all, if he hadn’t lost his memory, this guy wouldn’t have been able to throw away so many burdens of being a young master. He clearly liked to get close to her as if no one was around, but he always put on a stiff and cold appearance.
Compared to the Yan Jiuchao who always disguised himself in the past, the current him was more real and undisguised.
Yu Wan was really spoiled to the point of being useless now. She did not even need to walk. She wrapped her arms around Yan Jiuchao’s neck and said softly, “Don’t punish the chef. His egg custard is very good. I still want to eat it for lunch.”
Yan Jiuchao did not say anything and only snorted coldly. However, everyone understood that the chef’s life was saved.
The beauties watched helplessly as their King carried the new Madam out of the hall. From the beginning to the end, the King did not even look at them. This was too heartbreaking. Compared to that unknown vixen, the new Madam, who was doted on by the King, was the biggest worry in their hearts.
“The vixen gave birth to three sons for the King, but she doesn’t even have a status. Perhaps the King has already dealt with her. The King only has the new Madam in his heart.”
“Isn’t that so? When has the King ever doted on a woman like this?”
“The King is dizzy from her charms…”
The beauties started whispering. In the past, they thought that Madam Li and Madam Yu were favored because they could be summoned by the King every month. As for why they were summoned, no one knew, but at least they had the chance to meet the King. Now that they saw the interaction between the King and the new Madam, they finally knew what true love was.
Madam Li and Madam Yu’s handkerchiefs were about to be crushed. There was no comparison. The two of them were still considered good. After comparison, those “kind favors” were not worth mentioning. Moreover, they suspected that from now on, those meager “kind favors” would also cease to exist with the arrival of the new Madam.
“Sister, what should we do?!” Madam Yu stomped her feet anxiously. She had thought that as long as they guarded that favor, they would be able to become a legitimate Madam sooner or later. At the very least, they could give birth to a son and a daughter for the King. Now, it was all for nothing. She could not count on anything!
A trace of unwillingness flashed across Madam Li’s eyes. “Good sister, if the person that was doted on is you, I won’t say anything. After all, you and I have guarded the King for so many years. We have worked hard without any contributions, but what is that woman? She’s just a b*tch! I heard that she was despised by everyone in the family back then. It was the previous king who ignored the past and adopted her. He saw that she was pitiful and forced the King to marry her before he died. But look, what did she do to the King? How can such a b*tch be worthy of the King?”
Madam Yu nodded. “Sister is right! She’s not worthy!”
Madam Li smiled coldly. “The King was just bewitched by her for a moment. As long as the King sees her true colors, can he still tolerate her living happily in the clan?”
Madam Yu’s eyes flickered. “Sister, do you have a good idea?”
Madam Li hooked her finger at Madam Yu, and Madam Yu handed her ear over. After listening carefully to Madam Li, she covered her mouth and chuckled. “Brilliant plan, brilliant plan! When the King sees this scene, he will definitely not dote on her anymore!”
Madam Li smiled and said, “It’s not enough for the two of us to be witnesses. Call Fourth Uncle and Fifth Uncle too!”
The Fourth and Fifth Uncles that Madam Li mentioned were the two guardians of the Ghost Clan. Their statuses were precious and were not inferior to priests. They were also cousins with the Ghost King’s mother, so they were even more valued in the clan.
Madam Li and Madam Yu were originally the daughters of the illegitimate brothers of the two guardians. In terms of relationship, they were not too close, but in terms of use, they were closer than biological daughters.
This was not the first time they were jealous of a favored beauty. They had also done many things to frame beauties. Some of them had even been discovered by the King, but the King never said anything. In the King’s opinion, this was the King’s doting on them and the King’s high regard for their uncles. Hence, the two of them were almost fearless when they wanted to frame the new Madam this time.
Yu Wan still did not know that she had been targeted by the two Ghost King’s concubines. She was brought back to the bedroom by Yan Jiuchao.
“Where’s the children?” she asked.
“They went to learn martial arts,” Yan Jiuchao said and gave her an impressive, awesome look, as if to say that being his sons were very tiring.
Yu Wan nodded. There was nothing to worry about if they went to look for Ah Wei. She had just eaten her fill, but now she was sleepy again. She was about to fall asleep when Yan Jiuchao grabbed her wrist. “Woman, have you forgotten something?”
“Huh?” Yu Wan looked at him in confusion.
“You fell asleep last night.”
“Yeah.” So?
“You owe me!”
“…” Yu Wan touched her stomach…
Seeing her hesitation, Yan Jiuchao narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Why? Are you thinking about your pretty boy again? You’re already my woman. You won’t have a chance to see him again in your life! If you know what’s good for you, listen to me obediently. Otherwise, I’ll kill your two subordinates!”
Yu Wan was at a loss. “Which two subordinates?”
Yan Jiuchao pinched her chin. “Those two are called Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen.”
Those are your subordinates!!!
Yu Wan ignored him. Yan Jiuchao domineeringly locked (separated) her in the corner. Yu Wan had never known that he could emit such a domineering aura. Such a person was undoubtedly even more charming.
…
An hour later, Yu Wan fell asleep while snoring.
Yan Jiuchao sat at the head of the bed in a daze, his ears so red that blood could drip from them.
Yan Jiuchao sat in the hall for a while and listened to the guard report that the two guardians of the clan had arrived. They had something to discuss with the King, so Yan Jiuchao left in high spirits.
The servant who was bribed by Madam Li and Madam Yu entered the bedchamber at this time.
The Ghost King liked silence and did not like to be served by too many servants. He was skilled in martial arts and was not worried that someone would assassinate him. That servant did not spend much effort to sneak into the Ghost King’s bedchamber.
The servant carried a large sack and saw Yu Wan sleeping soundly at a glance. Just as he was about to walk towards the bed, Fang Fei and Fang Rong suddenly walked in with a few plates of freshly made snacks from the kitchen. The man hid under the bed.
When Fang Fei and Fang Rong saw that their Madam had fallen asleep, they did not dare to disturb her. After putting down the snacks, they silently went to guard the door.
The servant crawled out from under the bed.
According to Madam Li and Madam Yu’s decree, he placed the drugged handsome man in the sack beside the new Madam. This man was carefully chosen by Madam Yu and Madam Li. He was more handsome, burly, and young. He was most suitable to be an adulterer.
In a while, he would shout that assassins had appeared when he’s outside the bedchamber. Madam Li, Madam Yu, and the other guardians would rush to the palace because they were worried about the King’s safety. In the end, they would stage a scene of catching the adulterer in the act in front of everyone.
The new Madam had embarrassed the King like this. They believed that the King would never dote on her again.
After everything was dealt with, the servant jumped out of the windowsill and changed back into his guard armor. As planned, he shouted, “There’s an assassin—come and catch the assassin—”
The guards were alarmed.
When the woman in the palace heard the news, she rushed over to “protect” the Emperor. The two Guardians and Yan Jiuchao, who were discussing in the side hall, also rushed over.
“My King, it’s better if you don’t go in… Madam, she… she…” At the door, Madam Li covered her mouth with a handkerchief and looked at Yan Jiuchao with teary eyes. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
“Move aside!” Yan Jiuchao shouted. He walked past her and into the room.
The corners of Madam Li’s lips curled up. The good show was about to start. When he saw his newlywed wife cheating on a man younger than him, he would definitely not be able to hold back his anger and kill them!
“King—”
Madam Li held back her smugness and exchanged a look with Madam Yu. They both cried and walked in.
The scene in front of them stunned the two of them. There was no sign of a man on the wide bed. There were only three cute little munchkins!!!
