Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered
Chapter 169 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (48)
Xiao Jin held her cheek, and they sat face to face. His forehead gently rested against Song Lingxi's forehead, and their breathing was almost audible.
"Are you sleepy, Xier?"
Xiao Jin looked at Song Lingxi's listless eyes. He wanted to tease her, but a hint of heartache flashed across his eyes. It seemed that he had gone too far last night.
"I'll carry you to rest for a while."
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, he picked up Song Lingxi's small body and frightened the girl so much that she screamed in surprise.
"Ah - Your Majesty -"
Out of instinct, Song Lingxi wrapped her arms around Xiao Jin's neck, but when she came to her senses, she withdrew her hands.
Xiao Jin noticed this keenly. When he looked at Song Lingxi, his eyes were thoughtful and his steps suddenly stopped.
"Xi'er is afraid of me?"
His voice was low and hoarse. To Song Lingxi, it sounded like the devil's whisper, causing her small body to stiffen.
"No...no."
Song Lingxi spoke hesitantly. She was indeed a little afraid of Xiao Jin. Last night, she was so angry that she took the initiative to ask Xiao Jin for a kiss and to crave for intimacy.
But now that she was clear-headed, Xiao Jin was just an emperor high above her, not much different from a stranger.
Moreover, Xiao Jin was so imposing, and his eyes that could frighten all the court officials made people dare not look directly at him. How could Song Lingxi not be afraid?
Therefore, Song Lingxi lied, but she didn't expect that she couldn't hide her thoughts at all and they were exposed in front of Xiao Jin.
She lied.
Xiao Jin could tell at a glance that Song Lingxi was not being sincere, and his heart sank.
The book said that the way to capture a woman's heart is through sex. He naively thought that as long as he had physical contact with Song Lingxi, Xier would fall in love with him.
but--
That's not the case at all. He couldn't see a trace of love in her eyes!
Xiao Jin held Song Lingxi's hands tightly. His burning heart felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it, chilling his entire heart.
Song Lingxi belatedly sensed Xiao Jin's gaze, which was so strong that she could not ignore it, and it made her little heart tremble.
Xiao Jin just held her without moving. They both fell silent at the same time, and the atmosphere in the room began to calm down.
……
Song Lingxi was a little confused. What happened to the emperor? Did she offend him with her actions just now?
And the look in his eyes really scared her.
Fear?
Song Lingxi suddenly recalled that the emperor seemed to have asked her if she was afraid of him just now. She replied no, but her voice was trembling.
It must be because my lie just now was discovered!
What is the remedy?
After a while, Song Lingxi tremblingly stretched out her hands, circled Xiao Jin's neck, and leaned her head on him.
Song Lingxi's soft and tender voice rang out in front of Xiao Jin's chest: "I was wrong, Your Majesty, please don't be angry."
The soft, sweet voice was like ice in the summer, which was the best for clearing away heat and instantly dissipating Xiao Jin's rising anger.
Seeing that Xiao Jin did not respond, Song Lingxi bravely looked him in the face. Generally speaking, looking directly into the emperor's face was disrespectful, and Song Lingxi would not dare to do so unless it was absolutely necessary.
But angering the emperor was not a good thing either, as he would be beheaded anyway. Therefore, Song Lingxi did not care about anything else and did it bravely.
"emperor……"
Xiao Jin lowered his head and immediately saw Song Lingxi's timid eyes. In those clear eyes, there was uneasiness, anxiety, and confusion, but no love.
But the girl didn't think there was anything wrong with this and still looked at him timidly. Her eyes seemed to be able to speak, asking for peace with her.
Xiao Jin was silent for a while, trying hard not to soften his heart, but it was all in vain. In the end, he helplessly succumbed to her little eyes.
He murmured helplessly, this little girl, could it be that she was sure that he would be soft-hearted, so she stared at him with her big, clear eyes?
"Let's go."
Xiao Jin did not answer her question as to whether he was angry or not. Instead, he carried her directly to the couch, and when he sat down, he also held her in his arms.
Xiao Jin half hugged her, holding Song Lingxi tightly in his arms, as if he was afraid of losing her.
He thought of Song Lingxi's clear eyes, and a strong sense of unwillingness surged in his heart. His arms held Song Lingxi tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to rub Song Lingxi into his flesh and blood.
"hiss--"
Song Lingxi felt like she could hardly breathe. She had been enduring it silently, but now, she couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Xiao Jin loosened his arms hastily, realizing that he had strangled her too hard. He lifted her clothes and saw the red marks left by his strangulation.
The red mark was particularly conspicuous on the snow-white skin, which made Xiao Jin's eyes flash with a trace of heartache and regret.
"Does it hurt?"
Xiao Jin's big hand stroked the skin of her abdomen, causing Song Lingxi to shudder, and the original pure meaning changed.
"It doesn't hurt anymore."
Song Lingxi held Xiao Jin's big hands with her two small hands to stop him from making trouble. At the same time, a hint of nervousness flashed in her eyes, fearing that refusing would anger him.
Xiao Jin naturally saw the meaning in Song Lingxi's eyes. He sighed helplessly, not understanding why he became like this in her heart.
"Xi'er, why are you afraid of me? You will be my only queen in the future. Why are you so afraid of me?"
Xiao Jin's words were like a huge bell hitting Song Lingxi, so awakening that she was unable to recover.
Queen, the only queen, what does that mean?
"Your Majesty...what Queen?"
Song Lingxi hesitated, but finally asked. She was afraid that she had misunderstood him and that she had said the wrong thing.
"Xi'er, don't you want to be my queen?"
Xiao Jin, however, looked relaxed. He just wanted Xier to marry him, marry him openly, to be his queen and the mother of the world.
"!"
Song Lingxi's face was filled with shock. When she came to her senses, she even forgot to put on her shoes. She ran down the couch and knelt down in front of Xiao Jin.
"Your Majesty, I would never dare to do that. I am a divorced woman and I am not worthy of being the Empress."
Song Lingxi's expression was somewhat uncertain. She didn't know what Xiao Jin was thinking. What if it was a test? Or was he testing her?
When she thought of this, she banged her head loudly. The noise startled Xiao Jin, and he quickly pulled the person up.
"What are you doing? Look, your head is almost broken and swollen."
Xiao Jin didn't expect that before he could even get angry, this silly girl would start to embarrass herself. Looking at the way she knocked her head, was she trying to disfigure herself?
"Your Majesty, I know that I am of low status and I am a second-time bride. I am content to be favored by Your Majesty for a while. How can I become the queen?"
Song Lingxi's eyes were filled with tears, and her bright red eyes made me feel particularly pitiful. Her two little hands clung tightly to Xiao Jin's shoulders, like a weak and helpless dodder.
Xiao Jin's heart softened instantly. He patted Song Lingxi on the back, held her tightly in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "I won't mention it now, Xi'er, don't be afraid."
He finally realized that this little girl was ruining her body because she was sure that he would be soft-hearted.
Xiao Jin secretly swore in her heart that the queen must be crowned, but Xier must be given some time to allow her to adapt to the palace for a while.
Since he had made up his mind, he couldn't let her down now, so he immediately ordered: "Li Peicong."
Eunuch Li had been guarding outside the palace. When he heard the emperor calling him, he immediately trotted in, fearing that if he was a second late, he would annoy the emperor.
"Your Majesty, this servant is here."
"Pass on my decree. I want to enthrone Song Lingxi of the Song family as the Imperial Consort Ling, to be in charge of the six palaces, and to temporarily take over the Phoenix Seal."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar throughout the place.
Song Lingxi was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, her eyes were full of disbelief. She had never dreamed of the position of imperial concubine, she was just inferior and felt that she was not worthy of it.
She always felt that she was abandoned by Xie Changling because he was tired of her, and that she was not worthy of a man's love, which was why she was hurt.
But Xiao Jin used his actions to tell her that she was worthy, not just a promise or a noble lady, but a noble concubine!
"Your Majesty, this is against etiquette!"
Eunuch Li was even more shocked. No matter how fast a concubine's career progressed, she had to be promoted step by step. Even if her family background was good, she had to start as a minor noble.
Only those who are old friends in the emperor's residence can be given titles of concubine or queen, but Miss Song is not one of them.
Is the position of imperial concubine too extraordinary?
"It seems that I am too kind to you. How dare you question my decision?"
Xiao Jin's face was full of displeasure. He originally wanted to make Song Lingxi the queen, but who would have thought that this little girl would kowtow when she heard the word queen, which made him feel distressed.
The Imperial Concubine was originally the second best choice, and we just had to find an opportunity to promote her to a higher position.
As a result, a small servant dared to question his decision?
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I've been too talkative. I'll slap myself in the face!"
Eunuch Li felt Xiao Jin's unfriendly look, so he rolled up his sleeves and began to slap himself over and over again. Soon his face was swollen.
"Ah, Your Majesty—"
Song Lingxi had never seen such a scene before. She was so scared that she hid in Xiao Jin's arms and buried her head tightly in his chest: "Your Majesty, please spare Eunuch Li. I am afraid--"
Xiao Jin patted her back soothingly and thought to himself that Xier was still too kind. Fortunately, he had her to protect her and would not let her suffer any harm.
At the same time, he was even more moved by her sincerity. No one would want the person they love to be a vicious person, especially a suspicious superior like him.
He patted Song Lingxi's trembling little body, feeling the warmth on his chest. His love for Song Lingxi deepened, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.
"Okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Li Peicong, get out of here and pass on the imperial edict, or you will be beheaded!"
After hearing this, Eunuch Li hurriedly kowtowed to thank the emperor and arranged for someone to bring a blank imperial edict. The edict had to be stamped by the emperor himself before it would be valid.
Therefore, Eunuch Li went to make arrangements without stopping, and did not forget to thank Song Lingxi for saving his life.
After all, just now, the emperor's murderous intention was not concealed at all.
