Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered

Chapter 182 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (61)

In fact, Song Lingyu knew that Song Lingxi would definitely not see her. The reason why she agreed to Xiao Heng was to delay him for some time and get pregnant with his child as soon as possible.

She had figured out that Xiao Heng was the type of person who got bored easily and easily. Now that she had just married into the family and was already being ignored not long ago, it was possible that her life would be even more difficult in the future.

Pregnant with Xiao Heng's child as soon as possible would always make her position more stable. In the future, when Xiao Heng ascended the throne, she would be the most noble woman in the world, the master of the central palace - the queen.

However, she didn't expect Xiao Heng to be so anxious this time. If she couldn't meet Song Lingxi at all, Xiao Heng would definitely continue to ignore her, and her hopes would be dashed.

"Why don't we wait until the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is over and then we can make a long-term plan. There is no need to rush now."

Song Lingyu's little plan was so obvious, Xiao Heng could still see a little bit of it. He was very anxious right now, so how could he agree?

Xiao Heng's face immediately turned cold, and he looked at Song Lingyu with an extremely cold gaze, completely different from before. His eyes were extremely serious and he would not tolerate any disobedience from others.

"Lingyu, that's your sister. There's no reason for two sisters to hold grudges. I'll go and deliver the petition now. You should dress up and don't keep your sister waiting for too long."

After Xiao Heng finished speaking, he strode away without waiting for Song Lingyu to refute again.

Song Lingyu was left alone standing there in a daze for a long time. Her family had lost power, her husband was unfaithful, and her mother-in-law was overbearing. She was extremely sad now and did not even have the right to say no.

But she quickly calmed down and now could only take one step at a time and see what happened.

……

royal palace.

Fengyi Palace.

Xiao Jin took the memorial to Song Lingxi and said, "Xi'er, Xiao Heng's new wife is your sister. He sent a memorial today saying that he wanted to reminisce with you."

Song Lingxi was originally reading a storybook, but upon hearing this, she immediately put down her raised feet.

"Song Lingyu wants to see me, but I won't see her. Your Majesty, please reply to them on my behalf."

Xiao Jin held her fair ankle, took away her storybook and checked it. It was full of stories about talented men and beautiful women. He was worried that his own son would love storybooks from the moment he was born.

"Xi'er doesn't like them. Do you want me to fine them some salary to make Xi'er happy?"

Xiao Jin saw that Song Lingxi looked unhappy and her mood was visibly depressed, but he was reluctant to blame her, so he hurried to comfort her.

"is it okay?"

Song Lingxi really took it seriously. She remembered how badly she was harmed by this couple in her previous life. Now, her enemies were still jumping around fiercely, but she couldn't do anything about them.

There was some expectation in her eyes. Song Lingxi knew that she was being spoiled, but she wanted Xiao Jin to stand on her side.

Xiao Heng saw the expectation in her eyes. Although he didn't know how Xiao Heng had offended her, it did not stop him from venting his anger on Song Lingxi.

"Of course you can. Xiao Heng has been dismissed from all his official positions by me. This shouldn't have happened in the first place. I don't know how the Ministry of Personnel handles things. I will announce it in court tomorrow and suspend his salary."

Song Lingxi suddenly became happy. She was visibly happy and her whole body was filled with joy, which made Xiao Jin's heart soften.

"Then your Majesty, please don't be soft-hearted!"

The childlike words made Xiao Jin couldn't help laughing. He pinched Song Lingxi's smooth and moist little face and smiled.

"a man of his words."

……

The eldest princess's mansion.

Xiao Heng looked very unhappy after being rejected. He thought that Concubine Ling would definitely behave virtuously in front of the emperor. After all, who would admit that she had a bad relationship with her family?

Isn't that openly saying that she is disobedient, unvirtuous, or even that she is despised by women nowadays and is spurned by everyone?

Moreover, he suddenly realized that Song Lingyu had lost even the last bit of value that could be utilized. She had a bad family background and was at odds with her sister, the imperial concubine in the palace. She was of no help to his cause at all.

Xiao Heng might not have been so utilitarian before, thinking about the value of everything. That was because he had no sense of crisis before, and he was the only junior who could inherit the throne of the emperor.

But now, the news suddenly came out that Concubine Ling was pregnant, and he suddenly became panic-stricken. Between his son and his nephew, everyone knew which one to choose.

When Song Lingyu saw Xiao Heng's extremely ugly face in her yard, she knew that something was wrong.

She was wearing a light pink waist-length skirt and her face was covered with powder. The strong peony scent made Xiao Heng's face look even uglier.

Song Lingyu wanted to reach out and grab Xiao Heng's sleeve, but the man dodged her. She immediately realized that she was implicated in his anger.

She follows her mother around, and what she does best is to make men feel distressed. Thinking of this, Song Lingyu's eyes instantly turned red and bloodshot.

"Your Highness, is it possible that my sister doesn't want to see me? However, I really don't know how I offended her. I have been trying to ease the relationship between the sisters."

Song Lingyu cried sincerely. Although she could not compare with Song Lingxi's stunning beauty, she had taken good care of herself since she was a child and paid attention to controlling her diet, so she had a delicate and fragile appearance.

When she cried, her tears were like pearls from a broken string. She was clearly the principal wife, but she looked like a little bird, and the huge contrast made Xiao Heng feel a little sympathy for her.

"Your Highness, I will definitely try my best to seek my sister's forgiveness. I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that I can visit her in time to complete this bond between sisters."

This sentence really touched Xiao Heng. He had no brothers or sisters, so he naturally didn't know that some sisters would quarrel with each other because they had different mothers.

They even got to the point where they never spoke to each other again, and because they were brothers and sisters, they hated each other even more.

Xiao Heng still naively thought that Song Lingyu could reconcile with her sister the Imperial Concubine. After all, they were from the same family and should take some feelings into consideration.

Thinking of this, Xiao Heng hurriedly hugged Song Lingyu, who was crying and about to collapse, in his arms and tried to calm her down.

"Yu'er, I know what you're thinking. Grandmother's birthday party will be in a few days. You must seize this opportunity and don't let the Imperial Concubine have a grudge against you."

Xiao Heng actually just wanted to be prepared. He couldn't place his own people around the emperor, but wasn't Song Lingyu a natural one of his?

He knew that some spices could cause a woman to miscarry. If he allowed Yu'er to accompany the imperial concubine every day, the imperial concubine would miscarry silently.

It was a perfect plan, and no one would know about it. Even if it was discovered, it would be the fault of the Song family. They didn't raise their daughter well, so what did it have to do with him?

Xiao Heng couldn't help but imagine that after the plan was completed, his position would become more and more stable, and when he became the emperor...

"Your Highness, Your Highness, what are you thinking about?"

Song Lingyu's voice interrupted Xiao Heng's reverie. After Xiao Heng reacted, he made up a few words to get by.

"I was busy with work these days and neglected you a little. Thank you Yu'er for not taking it seriously. I will accompany you tonight."

"it is good"

Song Lingyu lowered her head shyly, but in her heart she was complaining that the man was obviously unfaithful, but she had to act with him.

The couple clearly had their own ulterior motives, but on the surface they appeared to be living a peaceful and harmonious life.

……

Ten days later.

The Queen Mother's birthday banquet was held as scheduled.

At the banquet, there was singing and dancing, and the atmosphere was peaceful.

Originally, the Queen Mother only wanted to hold a simple family dinner, but the Prime Minister happened to come back from disaster relief work, so she decided to hold a celebration banquet together.

In fact, the Queen Mother also felt guilty. Her son did such a thing, which was the first time since the founding of the State of Xiao. His father had devoted himself to the State of Xiao until his death.

Alas, children are all here to collect debts, so the empress dowager can only take this opportunity to host a banquet for the prime minister to express her apology.

Look, the Queen Mother raised her glass to toast the Prime Minister on behalf of her son: "The Prime Minister's great achievements are a blessing to the world today, and will bring peace to future generations. I admire heroes like you the most, so I toast to you."

The Prime Minister hurriedly stood up, his face respectful, without showing any dissatisfaction towards the Emperor. One can only say that an old fox is an old fox with profound skills.

"Your Majesty, your words are too kind. I am only trying my best to do something for the Xiao Kingdom. This is my duty."

The empress dowager nodded with satisfaction. She glanced at the main seat and saw that the emperor and Concubine Ling had not come yet. Thinking something had gone wrong, she urged someone to go and invite them.

Before the young palace girl stepped out of the palace gate, the voice of Eunuch Li was heard outside the door.

"The Emperor has arrived, and Concubine Ling has arrived—"

"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty, His Majesty the Imperial Concubine."

Xiao Heng also knelt among the crowd. He looked at Xiao Jin who was rising to a high position step by step. A strong desire surged in his heart. He wanted to be the one who would be admired by everyone in the future.

"Flat body."

After Xiao Jin helped Song Lingxi sit steadily on the chair, he casually said "Stand up". Everyone was fortunate enough to see the beloved Concubine Ling.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t look, but once you look, it’s like you’re frozen in time, everyone is stunned.

I saw the beautiful woman smiling, her pair of almond-shaped eyes were like stars, so dark and bright that it was somewhat shocking. Just by looking at her, I felt as if I was attracted by her pair of eyes that could speak.

She had a delicate nose, cherry lips, skin as white as snow, and a graceful figure. She was wearing a bright red palace dress, which made her look even more gorgeous and extraordinary.

Xiao Heng couldn't help but stare at her in a daze. After all, there were such beautiful women in the world, so beautiful that they could make fish sink to the bottom of the water, geese fall to the ground, the moon hide in shame, and flowers blush. She had a beauty that could topple a country.

Others were also shocked by Song Lingxi's beauty when they saw her for the first time. They stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

But they all knew their limits and knew that this was not the woman they should desire. When they came to their senses, they all withdrew their gazes and dared not look at her any more.

Only Xiao Heng was obsessed with Song Lingxi's beauty. If Song Lingyu hadn't reminded him, Xiao Jin would have set his sights on him.

Who would want her husband to fall in love with someone else? Song Lingyu felt very sick, but for the sake of her own glory, she had to bring Xiao Heng back to his senses.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?"

Xiao Heng was pulled by Song Lingyu's sleeve. When he looked at Song Lingyu impatiently, he saw that dull face and felt even more uncomfortable.

They are sisters, but why do they look so different? One is like a fairy high in the sky, while the other is like the mud on the ground.

However, before Xiao Heng could get angry, after Xiao Jin settled Song Lingxi down, he also started to talk about the situation, forcing Xiao Heng to swallow back the words that were about to come out of his mouth to humiliate Song Lingyu.

"Today is the Queen Mother's Centennial Banquet. The Queen Mother specially discussed with me to hold a celebration banquet for the Prime Minister's disaster relief work. This move will benefit the present and future generations, and I am very pleased."

"Come on, let's celebrate!"

Everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Ling was pregnant and couldn't drink alcohol, so the tea specially prepared for her was the finest fairy mountain snow, clear and refreshing.

After drinking the glass of wine, Xiao Jin did not put down the glass. Instead, his face showed even more joy, his face was rosy, and he was doubly happy. He continued.

"I am ashamed to say that I have not had any offspring since I ascended the throne. I feel ashamed of my ancestors and I am ashamed to face their legacy."

"Now that Imperial Concubine Ling is pregnant, it is my good fortune. Considering her contributions to the country, I specially announce in front of all of you that Imperial Concubine Ling will be crowned Empress and will be the head of the Imperial Palace."

As soon as Xiao Jin finished speaking, everything fell silent, and the court officials looked at each other in bewilderment. But not only the officials, but even Song Lingxi herself did not react for a while.

She seemed to not believe her ears, and she knocked the teacup to the ground. However, she did not care about it, but called out stupidly: "Your Majesty."

"I'm here, you must be so happy, why are you reacting like this, huh?"

Xiao Jin's voice was gentle, as if he was afraid of frightening the delicate girl in front of him. Even the ending of his voice was raised, which was much better than usual.

All those here are important and veteran ministers. They have followed the emperor for more than ten years, and have never seen such a gentle emperor. They all have goose bumps all over their bodies.

At the same time, she was secretly shocked in her heart. It turned out that the Emperor got along like this with the Imperial Concubine, no, with the Empress, in private. It was really unbelievable.

"Concubine..."

Song Lingxi wanted to refuse, but she couldn't find a suitable reason. Xiao Jin seemed to see her hesitation and coughed lightly: "Hey, Xi'er, think about it before you answer."

Hearing the threat in Xiao Jin's words, Song Lingxi was not completely resistant in her heart, so she stood up and saluted, thanked the emperor, and agreed.

"I thank the emperor for his grace."

"Hahahahaha, good, good, good!"

The emperor was very pleased. This was a good time to flatter him. Seeing this, the ministers stood up one by one and rushed to say words of blessing.

The Prime Minister also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I wish you and the Queen a harmonious marriage and a long life together."

The Queen Mother felt guilty towards the Prime Minister's family. She felt uncomfortable and embarrassed when she heard the Prime Minister's flattery.

"I think that the Prime Minister has made great contributions this time, and the Emperor should not be stingy with his rewards."

Xiao Jin was used to being a big shot, a man who would eat people without leaving any bones. He did not look embarrassed at all and was much more open-minded than the empress dowager.

"Haha, mother, you don't know that this old fox is asking for a reward."

"I am very sorry, Your Majesty, please do not misunderstand me."

Although the Prime Minister smiled, the smile did not reach his eyes, and even his tone was much stiffer, which showed his attitude.

As a subject, one should be loyal to the monarch, but this does not mean that one should happily accept that his daughter-in-law was taken away by the emperor.
