Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered
Chapter 172 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (51)
Fengyi Palace.
Song Lingxi looked at the jadeite and gold earrings, the pink glazed peach blossom hairpin, the golden phoenix-tail hairpin... and more than a dozen complete sets of head ornaments that were brought back.
There was everything, all kinds of patterns and styles, she was dazzled by the sight.
Xiao Jin was sitting at the eight-immortals table drinking tea. Looking at how she treasured these things, he shook his head with amusement.
"Come and have breakfast quickly. What's so good about these dead things? Are they prettier than me?"
Xiao Jin said with some jealousy. After all, he had never received Song Lingxi's wholehearted attention, but these few pieces of jewelry got it. His tone was a little sour.
However, I also felt a little more distressed for Song Lingxi. As the eldest daughter of the Censorate, she had never seen a few sets of precious headwear. I don’t know how this bastard Song Liwen raised a child.
Moreover, Xier is so thin that he can hold her waist with just one hand. It is obvious that she has never gotten anything good from him before. He has to investigate carefully.
"Be obedient and stop looking. They are all yours and you can't run away. If I had known you liked them, I would have kept two more pieces when Persia paid tribute instead of giving them to my sister."
Hearing Xiao Jin say this, Song Lingxi paused fiddling with her headdress, and casually picked up an emerald glass lotus hairpin and pinned it on her head.
She stood up with a smile on her face and called out "Your Majesty". Her soft voice immediately made Xiao Jin turn his head. That one look almost made him lose half his soul.
The girl was wearing a light green dress and a jade hairpin on her head. The lifelike hairpin looked like a real green lotus, which made the girl look more delicate and lovely than a lotus in clear water.
Xiao Jin was dazzled by Song Lingxi, who was as pretty as a delicate flower. He couldn't help but want to protect her and water her himself so that she could grow better.
"Your Majesty, there is one thing I can't quite remember. I want to ask you, but I'm afraid you won't tell me."
Song Lingxi began to walk, and with her small steps, her skirt fluttered along with her, looking like a lotus with every step, which was very beautiful.
As expected, Xiao Jin was attracted by Song Lingxi. His heart began to beat violently, his mouth was dry, and he was looking forward to what she would do next.
It's rare for Xi'er to be so proactive, is she trying to seduce me?
"Just ask, why are you walking so far? Come, let me see."
Xiao Jin directly pulled her into his arms, let her sit on his lap, leaning against his chest, and supported her small body with his big hands, holding her tight in his arms.
"Well, the book says that a lotus flower emerges naturally without any decoration, and it is indeed true. In my opinion, this hairpin suits you very well."
His gaze was gentle and powerful, with an indescribable tenderness, which made Song Lingxi blush and her eyes evasive.
"Hahaha, why are you still shy? Xier, don't you have something to ask me? Ask, I will definitely answer you."
Xiao Jin held the sweet and soft beauty in his arms, and he felt better than ever before. As long as Song Lingxi was willing to be close to him, he would be happy in his heart. This was an uncontrollable physical reaction.
He did not reject this reaction, and even said that Xiao Jin was looking forward to his being moved, which made him feel that he was still alive and could still love someone!
Since Xiao Jin brought it up, Song Lingxi was still confused, so she just asked.
"Your Majesty, did I do anything immoral that day in the Princess's residence that made my husband, no, that man, divorce me?"
Hearing Song Lingxi blurt out the word "husband", Xiao Jin's heart tightened, and the joy just now disappeared. What was he secretly happy about? Xier had not forgotten that man at all.
Song Lingxi did not expect Xiao Jin's mood swings. She knew she had called the wrong name, but she quickly corrected it. She thought it was nothing.
Unexpectedly, the man's arms became tighter and tighter, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Song Lingxi had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are strangling me, it hurts~"
The soft and gentle voice did not sound like an accusation, but rather like acting coquettishly. To Xiao Jin's ears, the dissatisfaction that had just risen in his heart was extinguished like a flame by cold water before it could even burn.
"Xi'er is always acting like a spoiled brat and making me soft-hearted. What a little rascal."
Xiao Jin tapped her nose, and finally put on a helpless smile on his face, which looked particularly warm.
At this time, Eunuch Li came to report: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Huang who delivered the imperial edict has returned. Do you want to see him?"
"Oh?"
Xiao Jin hesitated for once. Originally, he didn't want to let Xi'er know about the arranged marriage. Instead, he wanted to take Xi'er to their wedding and sever their evil fate with his own hands.
But Xier obviously still had feelings for that man. He felt that he could not wait for that day, so he told her the news today so that Xier would give up on him as soon as possible.
"Xuan."
Eunuch Li was stunned and looked at Song Lingxi who knew nothing. He didn't understand why the emperor suddenly changed his mind.
After all, the emperor had just given him an instruction. When Eunuch Huang came back, he should tell him and there was no need to reply specifically.
But what the emperor thought was none of his business, so he could only nod and leave.
As soon as he left, Xiao Jin turned Song Lingxi's little face over and let her look at him, so that he could see the expression on her face clearly. He asked Song Lingxi softly.
"Xi'er, are you curious? Where did I send him?"
Song Lingxi didn't understand what was going on. Confusion flashed in her big eyes. She didn't understand why Xiao Jin asked that.
But she still followed his words and asked: "Where?"
"The Prime Minister's Mansion."
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, he quietly looked at the expression on Song Lingxi's face. Sure enough, he saw her expression suddenly change and the smile on her face gradually faded.
When Xiao Jin watched this scene, his heart sank. His heart felt uncomfortable, as if a large hand was constantly stirring it, and he slowly began to feel a heart-wrenching pain.
But before he could get angry, Eunuch Huang came in quietly. Seeing the bad atmosphere between the two people in the hall, he thought something was wrong and knelt down to pay his respects.
"Your servant pays respects to His Majesty, and to His Majesty the Imperial Concubine."
"Get up."
Sure enough, Xiao Jin's voice was deep and he sounded unhappy, which made Eunuch Huang even more cautious so as not to offend the emperor.
"Tell me, what are the reactions of the Prime Minister's wife and the young master?"
When Eunuch Huang heard this, his heart began to beat fast. He even suspected that he was being interrogated by the Emperor because he had accepted the reward from the Prime Minister's wife.
His mind was racing, and after some thought he felt that it was impossible. He could only take it one step at a time, so he answered carefully.
"I have conveyed your Majesty's will. The Prime Minister's wife is grateful for your kindness and has given me a big red envelope. I want to share in your happiness. I brought it back to your Majesty on purpose."
"Happy, what's the happy news?"
After listening to what Eunuch Huang said, Song Lingxi couldn't sit still even before Xiao Jin said anything. How could divorcing her be considered a happy event?
She knew she shouldn't have such a big reaction, but she was indeed an ordinary person, not that cunning, and she couldn't suppress the bitterness in her heart.
……
Hearing the urgency in her voice, Xiao Jin's body tensed up and he felt even worse in his heart. He tried hard to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.
"The imperial concubine is asking you a question, go ahead."
Eunuch Huang glanced at Xiao Jin's ugly face and secretly groaned in his heart. What was this all about? If he gave a bad answer, he would lose his head.
"Your Highness, it was the Emperor who granted the marriage to Master Xie and Miss Jiang. The Prime Minister's wife and Master Xie are both very satisfied with this marriage and are smiling."
"A marriage arranged?"
Song Lingxi glanced at Xiao Jin. If she didn’t know what Xiao Jin meant, she would be a fool.
She could no longer pay attention to her husband Xie Changling. No matter if he was forced to do so or took the initiative to flatter her, she could no longer show that she still had feelings for Xie Changling.
The Prime Minister's Mansion has been very kind to her, and now she has repaid their kindness. From now on, they can go their separate ways.
"The arranged marriage is good, very good, very good. It's time to move on. It's good to move on."
Song Lingxi murmured to herself, but this time it was her turn to hold Xiao Jin's hand tightly, and she even increased her strength, hurting Xiao Jin and leaving a bright red handprint.
"Yes, everything should have an ending, and we should move on. It's all in the past."
Song Lingxi was in a daze, and kept saying these words, as if she was comforting herself, or as if she was just saying it for her own ears.
Xiao Jin glanced at Song Lingxi who was daydreaming, and did not bother with her. Seeing the unrest in her eyes, he finally patted the back of her hand.
"Okay, you go down."
Eunuch Huang pretended that he heard nothing, and retreated obediently, not daring to look at it any more.
Xiao Jin was also filled with anger. He pinched Song Lingxi's chin and looked into her eyes: "Why, having me is not enough, you are still thinking about that person?"
Song Lingxi didn't say anything for a long time before she came to her senses. When she saw the danger in Xiao Jin's eyes, she realized that she had lost her composure.
