Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 368

Chapter 368 - The Good Mother

"I don't know if she treats me that way, but she has truly shouldered the responsibilities of a good mother, a good princess consort. She has helped me take care of Zhu'er's daily life, carried out my duties as the Crown Prince's consort, was dignified and elegant, had zither, chess, painting, and other things like that, and she was very close to me, well aware of my thoughts. I know that I shouldn't say 'good' to her in front of you, but she is actually very strong on the outside. She knows my thoughts very well, so she will never disturb me. I thought it was a love born from time immemorial, but when I met you, I knew that it wasn't. It was just a kind of habit, just a kind of familial love! " Mu Jin said with a smile, and the pain in his eyes slowly seeped out.

It flowed into Wei Yuanwei's heart in an instant. His clothes were strong and her lips were indifferent, but the more Wei Yuanwei felt his helplessness and pain.

It was as if their bodies and minds were connected. She could clearly feel the pain and sorrow in his heart.

Every word that Mu Jin said …

Every gaze was able to strike at the string that hurt her the most.

This kind of girl was really good, even she felt that this kind of girl was really good. Moreover, after listening to Mu Jin's words, she didn't feel the slightest bit of sadness towards this kind of girl, it only added to her pity and regret.

Such a woman couldn't even get Mu Jin's love, which made Wei Yuanwei feel sad for her.

"If it wasn't for what happened five years ago, she would still be alive and you would treat her well. Just like your royal father, she would be the only one left in the harem!" Unknowingly, Wei Yuanwei's long and delicate eyelashes had been stained with sparkling teardrops, and like a crystal, Wei Yuanwei's eyes were now exceptionally bright.

Mu Jin reached out her thumb and gently erased the starlight that was surrounding Wei Yuanwei's eyelashes, "Yes, if not for the rebellion of the Zong Zheng five years ago, my Zhu'er would already be eight years old, I would be the emperor, the princess consort would become the empress, and she and I would even have a child …"

After Mu Jin said this, she suddenly choked and looked at Wei Yuanwei for a long time without saying anything.

"However, there are no 'ifs' in this world. Time will not flow backwards. Zhu Er and the princess consort will no longer be alive. The one accompanying me right now is you, and it will be you in the future!" Mu Jin frowned, "I only have you now, please don't leave me, okay?"

More and more starlight shone in Wei Yuanwei's eyes, as if it could fall from her eyes any time soon enough. Her heart ached, a type of pain that was both painful and astringent. "UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU … … … … … …"

She also really wanted to stay by his side. Perhaps before he turned nineteen, he had led an enviable life. But after that, he had to bear life that others of the same age couldn't endure.

He lost his mother, his father, Zhu'er, and then became the princess consort of his close family. Afterwards, he suffered heavy injuries, and even though he barely managed to survive, he had no choice but to live as someone else. In these eight years, he had endured too much, and he had experienced too much.

The people around him all left him one by one, and he had no choice but to walk forward without hesitation.

"Is the princess consort and Zhu'er really dead?" Wei Yuanwei really hoped that the princess consort didn't die, and that Zhu'er didn't die as well. She really hoped that the princess consort and Zhu'er would be able to escape from that coup back then.

She sincerely hoped that, as a woman, she would live too arduously. She had sacrificed so many years for Mu Jin and restrained her love for her. When she finally found Mu Jin, she lost her life.

If it was her, how unwilling would she be!

When Mu Jin didn't say what kind of person the Crown Princess was, she felt a little jealous of her. But when she finished listening to Mu Jin's story, she felt that the person who was being envied should be her!

The Crown Princess was so good, her status was so n.o.ble, and her character and family background were all above her. She had waited three years for Mu Jin's gaze, and she had only known her for half a year, yet she had managed to capture her heart.

The one who hated her to the core, and was jealous to the point of going crazy, should be the Crown Princess!

Suddenly, Wei Yuanwei felt that he had become a sinful person. What right did she have to mind that Mu Jin had married before, the ones who would mind should be Mu Jin and the Crown Princess.

"I also hope that they didn't die. After I woke up, I started to search for their whereabouts, but no matter how I searched, there would only be one piece of news. The crown prince's consort and Zhu'er were killed by the personal guards of the crown prince, and they were subsequently buried in a sea of fire together with the palace. No matter if it was a palace maid or a servant, none of them survived. How could Mu Jin not hope for the Crown Princess and Zhu Er to survive that coup?

But he hadn't heard from them in five years.

"I'm so envious of you, to be able to marry such a good princess consort!" Wei Yuanwei truly admired her from the bottom of her heart. If it was her, she really wouldn't be able to do it.

"Yes, Miao Ge is a very good girl. I have let her down and failed her. I have even regretted marrying such a good girl as the Crown Prince's consort, causing her to lose her life!" She didn't have to marry me, and she didn't have to die either, but that was all in my thoughts! " Mu Jin's eyes were full of regret when she thought of the dead princess consort.

Why was it that after making two choices in a row, he was wrong?

"I truly regret that I should have immediately killed him when I first noticed that he was conspiring against me, instead of hoping to get lucky and think that he was my royal uncle. But he still decided to kill me, and he did not care about my uncle's feelings, I really did not think that my beloved royal uncle would become such a cold-blooded, heartless person just for the sake of the throne!" This was probably what Mu Jin regretted the most.
