Qin Jue's hand held the wine glass for a moment, and there was an indescribable pain in his eyes.
He suddenly grasped Jiang Li's hand holding the wine glass, very hard.
Then looking at the slightly surprised look in the other person's eyes, he said word by word, "No, it's my turn to wish you... peace and joy for the rest of your life."
After saying that, he suddenly swept the wine glass out of Jiang Li's hand and spilled the pot of wine on the floor.
Before Jiang Li could react, Qin Jue had already finished his cup in one gulp.
The poison in the wine was extremely poisonous, and Jiang Li also took great pains, hoping that he could walk faster and with as little pain as possible.
This was indeed the case. After drinking a glass of wine, Qin Jue smiled at her, "Jiang Li... I think I have learned how to love someone."
"Although...it's a little late..."
The moment he finished speaking, Qin Jue spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes completely lost their look almost instantly, and he lay on the table and stopped moving.
Jiang Li sat there stiffly for a while, and then she suddenly raised her hand and put it on her heart.
After all... she was still in pain.
At this moment, the voice of System 007 suddenly sounded in Jiang Li's mind.
It seemed a little excited and a little surprised, "Jiang Li, you have completed your mission!"
Jiang Li seemed to have insufficient brain power at this time, and it took him a while to react before asking, "...What?"
System No. 007 said excitedly: "I said, the system has determined that you have successfully completed the mission!"
"I just checked, because there was no resentment in my heart when Qin Jue died. In addition, you changed the resentment caused by Qin Jue in Qing State, so it means that you have successfully completed this task!"
"Oh my God, I really didn't expect that Qin Jue would finally have a conscience. It's great that you don't have to die!"
"It's a good thing you didn't drink the poisoned wine together, otherwise it would be too late to regret it now!"
System No. 007 muttered happily, and after a while he noticed that Jiang Li seemed to have not spoken any more.
So its happy voice couldn't help but stop abruptly, and it said cautiously and tentatively, "Well... aren't you happy? You have completed your mission and you can go home!"
Jiang Li didn't speak, he just stared at Qin Jue who was no longer breathing.
This face is still as beautiful as the first time I saw it.
After a long while, she finally said: "Xiao Qi, you still owe me something, do you remember?"
System No. 007 responded, "What do you want to do?"
Jiang Li tried her best to move the corners of her lips and showed a smile. She said, "Xiao Qi, I don't want to go home. I want to stay here. Is that okay?"
System No. 007 was stunned, "Have you... thought about it?"
"Ah."
Jiang Li responded, then stood up, opened the door and walked out.
The sun is about to set outside, which is a great view of the setting sun.
She stood there facing the setting sun, and after a long time she said softly, "I'm not leaving... This is the country I finally conquered, how can I leave it to others?"
System No. 007 did not persuade her any more, but solemnly said goodbye to her, "Jiang Li, it's nice to meet you, and thank you for letting me see a different scenery."
"The system is about to be untied, and we have to say goodbye. You...don't be too sad."
Jiang Li looked at the sunset and curled up the corners of his mouth, "I'm not sad."
"But..." System No. 007's voice was a little lower, "But Jiang Li, you are crying."
As it finished its last sentence, Jiang Li heard a beep in his mind, "The system has been separated. I wish the host all the best."
After a long while, Jiang Li raised his hand and touched his cheek, which was wet.
It turns out that I really cried.
Qin Jue died, and Jiang Li had him buried in the imperial mausoleum.
From then on, no one mentioned him again, as if this person never existed in the world.
Jiang Li continued to be her empress and worked diligently to benefit the people.
Three years after Qin Jue's death, the civil and military officials finally couldn't bear it anymore and wrote a letter saying: Your Majesty, the harem is empty, you should also recruit a few people!
On the one hand, the crown prince is indeed the foundation of the country, especially as Jiang Li is the empress, and her children must be born in the future. Now that she is twenty-one years old, if she continues to waste her time, she will miss the best years.
On the other hand, all the civil and military officials are also eyeing their position in the harem. No matter what, they still have to have someone who can help them feel at ease.
Jiang Li thought for a while and did not refuse.
Since she was alive, she never thought about dying alone.
Especially since she is still an emperor and there is indeed a throne in her family that she wants to inherit.
It's just that the selection still needs to be considered, especially in the back position, we can't be too hasty.
Jiang Li asked the men of suitable age in the court who were willing to be sent to the harem to submit their names and albums.
She also made it clear that if you enter the harem, you cannot get involved in government affairs, so you have to do it voluntarily.
Then she saw the candidates sent by the Lu family in the book handed over.
He is Lu Zhan's younger brother, named Lu Jing, and he looks somewhat similar to Lu Zhan.
After she ascended the throne, she had Lu Zhan's bones brought back to the capital and buried in the imperial mausoleum.
In the past few years, she would visit him whenever she had nothing to do, so some in the court also speculated that she had feelings for Lu Zhan.
So the Lu family sent a picture album of their legitimate son Lu Jing. They probably had some careful thoughts, maybe because they wanted to take the throne.
After thinking about it, Jiang Li asked someone to send Prime Minister Lu to the imperial study.
Jiang Li got straight to the point, pointed at the album and asked him, "Is this what you mean?"
Prime Minister Lu hesitated slightly, feeling a little uneasy, but he could only nod his head, "...exactly."
Jiang Li said "Oh", "The Lu family wants to take the back seat?"
It's still a bit too direct.
Prime Minister Lu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but he knew that Jiang Li didn't like to hide behind his back and use his little tricks, so he gritted his teeth and nodded, "The back seat... there should be no one who doesn't want it."
Jiang Li nodded and said after a while, "Prime Minister Lu, I'm sorry that I can't promise you, and I can't let Lu Jing enter the palace."
Prime Minister Lu was stunned. He suddenly thought that he had angered Jiang Li, and he was about to kneel down in fear.
Jiang Li took him one step ahead and helped him, and then said seriously: "Lu Zhan died because of me. I miss him and the Lu family in my heart."
"I can give a lot to the Lu family, but I cannot give the post to his younger brother Lu Jing because of Lu Zhan."
"No one can replace the person I miss, Lu Zhan... If I did this, he would be unhappy if he knew about it."
Prime Minister Lu was completely stunned. He did not expect such a reason. At the same time, there were indescribable emotions stirring in his heart.
His eyes were red, and he suddenly knelt down and said, "...it was my lack of consideration. Thank you, Your Majesty, for still thinking of my son."
Moreover, I mean it sincerely.
Jiang Li shook his head and looked at another picture album on the desk.
The man above looks almost like Qin Jue.
She twitched the corners of her lips and said, "Wan Wan Leiqing's trick... I'd better forget it."
When people are deep in their hearts, why should they find a substitute to solve their lovesickness?
