Chapter 168 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (47)

Xiao Jin had just finished the morning court and had not yet left the house when he heard Eunuch Li's report. His eyes suddenly turned cold.

"You said that Fengyi Palace has summoned the imperial physician?"

Eunuch Li nodded. He didn't understand what the Queen Mother was thinking. She chose to summon the imperial physician when the Emperor was attending the morning court. Wasn't this clearly telling the Emperor that there was a problem?

"Let's go back to Fengyi Palace."

Xiao Jin made a prompt decision and got on the dragon chariot. Eunuch Li seemed to understand Xiao Jin's thoughts and instructed them to leave quickly so as not to waste the opportunity.

Behind him, Censor Song fell to the ground, thinking over and over in his mind, it's over, it's over, it's over.

He worked hard for most of his life, got into the Hanlin Academy on his own, and found a powerful in-law family. However, before he could enjoy the support, all the loyal members of his family died on the battlefield.

After changing his second wife, his new father-in-law helped him become an imperial censor. His success and failure were all due to his second wife. He listened to his wife and spoke for Xiao Heng, but the result was...

He regretted it so much. He had worked diligently for most of his life, from the previous dynasty to the present, but because of the words of two women, he lost his official position!

None of the ministers who came and went were willing to pay attention to him. Even the eldest princess's party looked down on him and walked around him.

In fact, this is also the fault of the eldest princess for keeping the news too secret. Song Lingxi, the eldest daughter of Censor Song, was brought to the palace. Not to mention becoming a palace concubine, even the queen could have done it.

However, the eldest princess did not dare to make a decision on her own without the emperor's order. After all, she had just been warned when the incident happened, and for the sake of her son, she could not make it public.

The Prime Minister's Mansion was also quiet, and even if others wanted to know, they had no idea where to start.

This also led to the fact that even the father, Censor Song, was completely unaware of this and was still plucking hair from the tiger's whiskers. It was a good thing that the emperor did not execute him.

However, it’s better that Censor Song doesn’t know. Once he finds out, he will start to commit suicide again. It is still unknown what will be waiting for him then.

……

Fengyi Palace.

The imperial physician had just finished taking Song Lingxi's pulse and secretly shook his head at the empress dowager, but said.

"Your Majesty is in poor health and has accumulated a lot of energy. I will prescribe two doses of tonic medicine to nourish her. You only need to drink it for a month."

The empress dowager understood the imperial physician's expression, but she was not much relieved. After all, even if Song was pregnant, it could not be diagnosed now, so it was better to take medicine to be safe.

"Okay, I order you to cure Song and I will reward you handsomely."

"Mother!"

Before the Queen Mother finished her words, a figure dressed in a bright yellow five-clawed dragon robe hurried in. The man was tall, slender, and looked very powerful.

"Your servant greets His Majesty."

Seeing this figure, everyone was shocked. When did the emperor come? Did he rush here right after the morning court session?

The Queen Mother was also feeling nervous, but she soon calmed down. She had done nothing wrong, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Emperor, you are here too, please take a seat."

After the empress dowager's suspicion, she regained her composure and a kind smile on her face. This was not fake, as she had high hopes for her son.

When Xiao Jin disappeared, she almost died and lost half her life. She didn't recover until she found him.

That's why she attached so much importance to Song Lingxi's belly. She would rather let her not give birth than let her give birth to a bastard.

Xiao Jin personally helped Song Lingxi up. Seeing that her face was rosy and just a little bit reserved, he felt much more at ease.

After pressing her down on the chair, he touched her little hand, which was also warm, and only then did he feel completely relieved.

"But you are not feeling well, why did you ask for a doctor?"

Xiao Jin looked concerned. Even though he was sitting in the main seat, he kept his eyes on Song Lingxi, fearing that something might have happened to her.

"She is just a little bit deficient in energy and blood. I have summoned the imperial physician to take a look at her. God has mercy on her. She is so thin. She will be fine after drinking some tonic medicine."

The empress dowager was afraid that Song Lingxi would talk too much, so she just said a few more words herself to dispel the emperor's doubts.

However, the Queen Mother's words were too urgent, which made Xiao Jin see some clues. His mother was not a bad person, but she was prone to doing stupid things.

In the past few years, because of Xiao Heng's affairs, the eldest princess often instigated the empress dowager to plead for him, and spoiled him beyond recognition. Xiao Heng, who was originally incompetent, became even more arrogant and domineering.

She suppressed her arrogance, and later, when the flood occurred in the south of the Yangtze River, the empress dowager realized that her grandson was spoiled, and she calmed down.

There is no such thing as a visit without a request. If the Queen Mother just wanted to see Xier, she could have just summoned her. Why would she come during her court session and bring the imperial physician with her?

There was something strange about this matter, and Xiao Jin had his doubts, but he didn't know what his mother was planning, so he could only wait and see.

"Oh, I see Xi'er looks very well. Where is the imperial physician? I want to hear it myself."

Xiao Jin wanted to see which imperial physician it was. He should remember that person so that he would not be unable to find him when the time came to hold him accountable.

It would be better to prevent it before it happens. If this person is ungrateful and insists on aiding and abetting the evil and harming Xier, then I will not be merciful and will just play a game of Nine Clans Candy Crush Saga.

"Your Majesty, I was ordered by the Queen Mother to diagnose your pulse. Your Majesty is suffering from a deficiency of Qi and blood, but it is not a big deal. You only need to take tonic medicine for a month."

Xiao Jin recognized that he was the imperial physician who often diagnosed the empress dowager's pulse. He was considered to be someone that his mother was used to. Well, his opinions should all be those of his mother.

"What's your name?"

"Your Majesty, I am Liang Zhijie."

"Well, go ahead. You don't need to prescribe the medicine."

Xiao Jin knew that the prescription would definitely not be wrong. As they were both working for the Imperial Physician Shu, it would be difficult for him to tinker with the medicinal materials. He didn't trust him, so he simply didn't let him do it.

"I will have someone take care of Xi'er's health in the future. You should just focus on taking care of the queen mother's health."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she knew that Xiao Jin was suspicious of him, but she was his mother, so how could she doubt her?

"Emperor, you don't trust me?"

"Mother, your words are too serious. I know you care about the younger generation, but your health should be the most important thing. How can I let you worry about it? Okay, this matter is settled."

Xiao Jin didn't want to argue with the Queen Mother. He cherished the mother-son relationship with the Queen Mother very much and didn't want to waste it, so he tried to avoid disputes if possible.

"Okay, okay, since you don't understand me, I don't have to think about you all the time. Rong Pei, let's go back to the palace."

The empress dowager stood up angrily. She saw that her plan had failed and she was furious and humiliated. She also felt very aggrieved and thought that her son was no longer under the control of his mother and that the emperor had become estranged from her.

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Rong Pei was anxious when she saw the mother and son falling out, but as a servant, it was not her place to have a say, so she could only go back and try to persuade them.

Xiao Jin watched them walk away without stopping them, but his eyes were gloomy and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, is it because of me that you..."

Song Lingxi didn't know what to say. She had offended the Queen Mother when she first entered the palace, and she didn't know if she would be tripped up in the future.

She looked at Xiao Jin timidly, with a pitiful fear in her eyes. Her little hands kept twisting the handkerchief. The light green dress made her look more like a delicate flower.

"Scared?"

Xiao Jin was originally feeling a little annoyed, but the moment he saw Song Lingxi, all his depression and irritability disappeared.

This feeling is like drinking a glass of cold drink in the scorching heat. You feel refreshed in an instant and all your worries disappear.

He walked down from the main seat, came to Song Lingxi, held her fair little hand, pulled her up into his arms, sat in her seat, and held her on his lap.

"Xi'er, you can finally get enough sleep today. I didn't know that the Queen Mother was coming, so I stayed up a little late last night."

Xiao Jin's eyes were gentle and affectionate, and the words he said were very embarrassing, which made Song Lingxi instantly think of last night.

The man's roar was still in my ears, and his hot body...

Song Lingxi's little face turned red instantly. She even felt that the place where she was sitting was a little hot. She didn't know whether to stand or sit.

"Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me."

Song Lingxi wanted to reach out and cover his mouth, but he was the emperor, how dare she?

So she could only speak softly, with a shy face, feeling extremely nervous and shy.

Even so, Song Lingxi was still afraid that she would anger the emperor. After all, it was easier for the emperor to kill someone than to crush an ant.

In her previous life, she was trapped in a brothel because of a word from Xiao Heng and Song Lingyu. To the absolute rulers, people like her were as lowly as mud.

Xiao Jin did not get angry, and even wanted to tease her because of her obedience. He finally got a lovely person, so naturally it would not be excessive to treasure her.

"Really? Then I want to tell you, who was it that begged me and cried so hard last night?"

"emperor!"

Song Lingxi was at a loss, her little face turned red, like the long sunset in autumn, so gorgeous and colorful that Xiao Jin wanted to pinch it.

But she didn't give Xiao Jin the chance. She buried her head in the crook of his neck, buried her little face, and pretended to be an ostrich, unable to face anyone.

Xiao Jin was stunned. After all, no one had ever been so close to him. Song Lingxi's collision just hit his heart.

When he realized what was happening, he burst into laughter: "Hahahahahahaha."

Hearing Xiao Jin's laughter, Song Lingxi's tense body slowly relaxed. She was afraid that she had lost her composure and angered the emperor.

But fortunately, this can be considered to have coaxed the person, Song Lingxi thought uncertainly, forgive her for really not knowing how to coax people.

This was an accidental discovery that made Song Lingxi realize that Xiao Jin liked her action.

She felt the vibration in Xiao Jin's chest, and slowly her body relaxed. Her whole body became soft, delicate and sweet, making Xiao Jin unable to let go.

Xiao Jin seemed to feel that Song Lingxi's mood had become relaxed, and an indescribable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart. His Xi'er was the softest, wasn't she?

Even though she was afraid, she still tried to comfort him, calm his anger, and allow him to let down his guard.

"Xi'er..."
