Wearing a book, hooking him up

Ling Yue stared blankly at Su Jingyao's back as she walked away, her eyes full of complexity.

She didn't know why she had become so paranoid. She knew in her heart that she could not compare to Su Jingyao in any aspect, but she still wanted to compete with her like a moth to a flame.

In the end, he just brought shame upon himself again and again.

but......

She just doesn't want Su Jingyao to have an easy life!

Ling Yue slowly lowered her eyes and her gaze fell on the water in the teacup in front of her. Her eyes were empty and lifeless. She just stared blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Ye Yaqin, who had been invited earlier, walked out slowly and quietly from the inner room.

Her usually calm and gentle face was now full of doubts, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of confusion.

Why couldn't she understand the conversation between the Crown Princess and the Concubine?

What do you mean I don’t know how long the Crown Princess has lived?

What is the past of the Crown Princess and the Concubine?

If she remembered correctly, the concubine had not been in the Eastern Palace for long.

What are the memories of the previous life?

She knew what the words "previous life" meant, but she couldn't believe it.

But what shocked her the most was that the Crown Prince actually wanted the Crown Princess to leave the palace after a month!

The reason is to make room for the concubine in the future queen's position!

Although His Highness favored only the concubine when she first entered the East Palace and did not begin to favor them until the concubine became pregnant, she knew that His Highness the Crown Prince loved the concubine very much.

But I didn't expect that it had reached the point where he favored his concubine and killed his wife.

Why did the Crown Princess call her over today?

The Crown Princess and the Concubine have a grudge against each other and now she is about to be sent out of the palace. Her future is bleak. Ye Yaqin doesn't think there is any benefit for her to cooperate with her.

"What is the purpose of the Crown Princess asking me to listen to your conversation with the concubine today?"

Ye Yaqin looked down at Ling Yue, her tone alert.

When Ling Yue heard Ye Yaqin's voice, her originally distracted eyes began to slowly focus.

She slowly raised her head and looked at Ye Yaqin, looking a little tired.

"Ye Liangdi, please sit down."

Ling Yue said weakly, casually gesturing to the seat next to him.

"Regarding the fact that the concubine will become the future queen of Your Highness, does Ye Liang Di have anything to say?"

"Your Highness will naturally decide who will be the future queen. Since entering the East Palace, everyone can see that Your Highness likes the concubine, so it is not surprising that the concubine becomes the queen."

Ye Yaqin frowned slightly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a perfect smile, her tone calm and gentle.

She folded her hands in front of her, her posture was dignified, but her eyes were cautious.

Ye Yaqin has been brought up by the Ye family since she was a child, so naturally she would not reveal her thoughts in a situation where she doesn't know whether someone is an enemy or a friend. Even if she is surprised at His Highness's attitude of favoring his concubine over his wife, she would not show it.

"I asked you to come here today, not only to tell you that Su Jingyao will soon become the queen, but also to make you believe that I know some endings that you don't know."

Ling Yue's voice was low and slow, full of mystery.

Ye Yaqin frowned. What exactly did the Crown Princess want to say? Was there really a previous life?

She remained silent. Rebirth was too shocking for her. It was no longer a question of belief or not. It completely shattered her cognition.

"As the legitimate daughter of the Ye family, you married into the Eastern Palace for the position of Queen. My purpose in calling you here today is very simple, to kill Su Jingyao."

Ling Yue's eyes suddenly became extremely vicious, as if he wanted to devour someone.

"I have no grudges against the concubine, why should I help you?"

Ye Yaqin's brows furrowed even more tightly, and disdain flashed in her eyes.

Is the Crown Princess so stupid?

Even if she wanted to deal with Su Jingyao, she wouldn't do it at this critical juncture.

"No grudges or hatred? If you don't kill Su Jingyao, your entire Ye family will die."

Ling Yue's voice suddenly rose and his expression became ferocious.

In the previous life, the Ye family was exterminated, and Ye Yaqin asked her to cooperate. She learned some inside stories. Jun Zechen cooperated with the Su family to confuse the Ye family, and eventually the entire Ye family was exterminated.

A crack suddenly appeared on Ye Yaqin's face, which had always been calm and composed.

Her expression became extremely serious, and she said sternly: "Why should I believe you?"

"In your previous life, your Ye family privately trained soldiers and recruited troops, but was exterminated by Jun Zechen."

"Jun Zechen wants to unify the world. He can either subdue the Su family's power after ascending the throne, or integrate the Ye family's military power."

Ling Yue stared at Ye Yaqin intently, with madness in his eyes.

"In the beginning of my previous life, Jun Zechen was originally planning to deal with the Su family, and there was even a secret letter as evidence. But later, Su Jingyao entered the East Palace, and Jun Zechen fell in love with her, so he changed his plan for her."

"Your Ye family has become Jun Zechen's target."

Ling Yue didn't say anything more, and Ye Yaqin's heart sank even more.

He seemed to have heard his father mention some secret letter, and even because of this, his father did not take the Su family seriously at all, and let her enter the prince's backyard to compete for the position of queen that would bring honor to the family.

Ling Yue looked at Ye Yaqin's increasingly serious expression and sneered.

"Jun Zechen dotes on Su Jingyao even more in this life. Your Ye family may have become a thorn in Jun Zechen's side. Before long, the eldest daughter of the Ye family will become a criminal."

Although Ye Yaqin was very mature at a young age, she was only sixteen years old.

When she heard the news, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and even her breathing became rapid.

Ling Yue showed a proud look on her face. She calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

She just wanted to make Ye Yaqin and Su Jingyao fight each other. Now Jun Zechen couldn't easily touch the Ye family. If Ye Yaqin killed Su Jingyao as soon as possible, Jun Zechen might not dare to touch Ye Yaqin. After all, Jun Zechen had not yet recovered the military power of the Ye family.

If it was later, after Jun Zechen ascended the throne and integrated the court, the Ye family would be the real fish on the chopping board.

No matter who wins or loses between the two, Ling Yue will be happy.

In her previous life, Ye Yaqin used her father to trick her into murdering Su Jingyao. She remembered clearly that it would be best if two enemies were to suffer losses on both sides.

Ling Yue seemed to have foreseen the scene of Ye Yaqin and Su Jingyao fighting each other, and really hoped to hear the news of the new emperor and empress's death outside the palace.

At this moment, Ye Yaqin was completely at a loss and didn't know what to say.

This matter is not something she can decide, she must ask her father first.

"Crown Princess, I will pretend that I have not heard anything you said today. I will take my leave."

Ye Yaqin took a deep breath, calmed herself down, bowed slightly, turned around and left. Her steps were hurried and she was no longer as steady as when she came.

-

At night, the night was as dark as water, and Jun Zechen came to Shuining Palace under the moonlight.

Because Su Jingyao was pregnant, apart from necessary walking, she just liked to lie in bed most of the time.

It is already December, and it is freezing outside with snow and howling cold winds.

Even though there were floor heating in the palace, it was still difficult to dispel the slight chill.

She lay on the bed with her long hair casually spread out like a waterfall, and her face was smooth and delicate, like fine jade.

The quilt covered her waist and abdomen. She was leaning against the head of the bed, holding a book in her hands, reading intently.

Jun Zechen tiptoed into the bedroom and slowly opened the bed curtains.

Su Jingyao raised her eyes when she heard the voice, and Jun Zechen's figure was reflected in her watery eyes.

"Your Highness."

Her tone was gentle. She was already used to him coming in without notifying anyone, and there was no surprise on her face.

Jun Zechen had just come in from outside, still feeling a bit cold.

He took off his outer robe neatly, walked to the brazier, stretched out his hands to warm them, and only got into bed after his hands had regained some temperature.

"Did the child bother you today?"

Jun Zechen's gaze fell on Su Jingyao's slightly bulging belly.

"No, I'm very good."

Su Jingyao gently placed her hand on her belly, and a faint smile appeared on her face, as gentle as water, as if it could melt the cold of winter.

After Jun Zechen got on the bed, he gently held Su Jingyao in his arms. She leaned on his shoulder and found a comfortable position.

Su Jingyao couldn't see Jun Zechen's expression. His deep eyes seemed to hide some unspeakable thoughts.

After chatting with Ling Yue yesterday, he kept thinking about what Ling Yue said about his previous life. He also carefully recalled Su Jingyao's various behaviors after entering the East Palace, and compared them with Su Jingyao in his memory of his previous life. His mind was filled with thousands of thoughts, like a tangled mess, so he never came to Shuining Palace.

"When Jiaojiao first entered the palace, she didn't get along well with the Crown Princess. Is there a reason for that?"

His voice sounded slowly from above Su Jingyao's head, with a probing tone.

"I and the Crown Princess don't get along?"

Su Jingyao suddenly got up from his arms, turned her head, and stared at him with her beautiful eyes, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her expression.

"It's obviously the Crown Princess who is targeting me!"

"I'm just asking."

Jun Zechen quickly spoke to comfort her, and at the same time reached out and gently touched her belly.

People are becoming more and more pampered now. They will be unhappy if just one word goes against their will.

"Then Jiaojiao, do you know why the Crown Princess is targeting you?"

Jun Zechen continued to ask seemingly casually.

Su Jingyao lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. Why did she feel like the old man was testing her?

Could it be that Ling Yue said something to him yesterday?

"Of course it's because of His Highness's favor. His Highness is so powerful and handsome that he has captured the hearts of all women." Su Jingyao said coquettishly.

Seduce all the women's hearts? If the girl in my arms doesn't enter the East Palace, she will also seduce all the men who have seen her.

"I only care about whether I can win Jiaojiao's heart."

Jun Zechen's heart suddenly tightened, and his eyes became more profound.

Maybe he was overthinking it.

She has no memory of the past, and it is true that she likes him.

Su Jingyao didn't expect Jun Zechen to suddenly say sweet words to her. Then she curled the corners of her mouth, and her small hands gently stroked his Adam's apple. Her eyes were charming and full of endless temptation.

"Your Highness, the answer is very long. I will spend my whole life to answer it. Are you willing to listen?"

Jun Zechen was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

"With great pleasure."

A look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

The two of them hugged each other tenderly for a while. After Su Jingyao became pregnant, her energy was running low. Gradually, she felt sleepy. Her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she fell asleep soon.

Jun Zechen was also used to holding her to sleep, feeling her even breathing, kissing her forehead, and slowly closing his eyes.

In the darkness, only a candle light hidden by a lampshade was flickering faintly.

The candle flame burned shorter and shorter, and the light and shadow flickered, illuminating the faces of the two people.

Both of them were breathing shallowly and were sleeping soundly.

In the silent palace, even the slightest sound of the wind could be clearly heard, but suddenly a soft crying voice was heard.

The sound was like a wisp of smoke, breaking the silence.

Jun Zechen has always been a very light sleeper and would be woken up by the slightest noise.

When he opened his eyes, he saw in the dim light that the woman in his arms was frowning tightly, and her eyebrows seemed to be twisted into a knot.

There seemed to be tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, and in the dim light, they looked like tiny pearls.

Jun Zechen instantly became nervous.

Have a nightmare?

Just when I was about to wake her up, I heard her aggrieved words in a crying voice.

"Your Highness, why didn't you tell me about your birthday, wuwu..."

Her voice was soft, nasal, and a little unclear, as if she was whispering in a dream.

However, Jun Zechen had sharp ears and eyes, and could hear these subtle sounds clearly.

His face suddenly darkened, as if covered with dark clouds.

Her birthday this year had already passed before she married into the Eastern Palace, so he naturally had no chance to wish her a happy birthday.

Your Highness?

Could it be... another him? !

Thinking of this, Jun Zechen's eyes flashed with astonishment, and his dark pupils stared straight at the woman in his arms who had a frown on her face and was still immersed in a nightmare.
