328 If the queen is dethroned

Zhai Tianyu stared at the woman who asked him the impossible, he thought that he knew Ji Yu but now that he was looking at her, and taking in her frenzied gaze along with her twisted expression, he realised that he might have never known the real Ji Yu.

True they were the best of friends but just as the Queen said, people, changed with time and most certainly somewhere when he was not looking Ji Yu, the girl who was honest and caring for all changed as well.

Somewhere he blamed himself as well, he was the one who did not take care of Ji Yu properly, he knew that Ji Yu was having a hard time in the Ji family and which was why she relied on him a bit too much but he was stupid enough to believe that it was similar to a friend relying on another friend since he never knew what it means to be in love or like anyone.

Whenever Ji Yu looked at him with that admiration-filled gaze of hers, he thought—- ‘Oh, it’s because she cares about me and respects me,’ who would have thought that the gaze that he thought was respectful and admiring was the one that was filled with adoration and love.

” You seem like you are tired, consort,” He told Ji Yu as he looked away after turning his head to the side and then heaving a breath. He was glad when he thought that Ji Yu respected him but now that he knew that what she had for him was not respect but love, he was filling more burdened than relieved, these feelings he was not worthy of them since he knew that he will never be able to return these feelings that Ji Yu had for him.

With that, he turned to leave but was stopped by Ji Yu who stepped in front of him and then spread her arms out in such a way that she will stop him from walking past her. She raised her head and stubbornly gazed at her as she asked with determination, ” Why? She is your wife and so am I! I married you just like her—— if she can touch you then why can’t I? Why can I not get the love of my husband? It’s my right your majesty, are you saying that you will take my right away as well?”

” You know that I can never do that!” Zhai Tianyu watched his mother slip into depression as she turned from a woman who was gentle and serene with a hint of elegance to someone he could not even recognize because of the fact that his father picked more than twenty Concubines and doted on them more than he did to his mother.

He watched his mother and father slipping through the cracks of their relationship which were why he was certain that he will not do the same even if he could not avoid taking concubines since his officials will not leave him alone if he did that, he was certain that he will never sleep with those concubines who were sent to him such as there will be no strife in the harem.

He did not want to fall from grace like his father if he wanted to just follow in the footsteps of his father, for what did he stay in the pond of his courtyard when his grandmother sent two women from the brothel to teach him the ways of a man? Why did he avoid sleeping with the Queen on their wedding night?

.....

Wasn’t it because he wanted to stay true to one woman and one woman alone?

Even if he had not fallen for the Queen only one woman would have borne his child and that too because he had to give an heir to the throne but after Ji Yu was unable to do so, he even thought of giving up the thought of giving birth to an heir than sleep with a woman whom he did not know.

This was something that Ji Yu knew and yet she was asking him to ——

Zhai Tianyu looked away from her face as he breathed hard and closed his eyes. ” Do not, I beg you consort …do not speak any further because you are only making me disappointed in you.”

” Then what about me? Have you thought about me?” Ji Yu said to him with tears streaming down her cheeks as she kept her arms on the side stretched wide. ” Does my disappointment in you not matter to your majesty? I am disappointed in you as well, if you never intended to keep your promises then why did you make them to me? Why did you not stop me when I was falling helplessly and madly in love with you? Why! Tell me!”

There was no answer to her question and in all honesty, Ji Yu felt even more hurt by Zhai Tianyu than him speaking cruel words to her. She felt her eyes burn as she stumbled forward but only for Zhai Tianyu to take a step back from her ——seeing him act like this, Ji Yu tugged the corner of her lips and then said, ” Now you don’t even want to be close to me, your majesty. Do I disgust you this much?”

She then raised her head and looked at him as she asked, ” I am going to ask you again, your majesty will you give me your body if you cannot give me your heart?”
