Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered
Chapter 184 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (63)
The song is over.
Chen Wanting finally stopped her dance. She felt that she had performed very well, probably twice as well as when she practiced at home.
She dared to say that her dancing steps were the best in the world.
Therefore, when he stopped, his eyes held a hint of pride, and as he looked at the intoxicated expressions of the crowd, he felt completely confident.
Her father was Chen Mo, a king of a different surname in this dynasty. He was a descendant of a founding hero. He inherited his father's title and became one of the few princes in this dynasty.
Chen Wanting looked at her father, but did not see a satisfied expression on his face. Instead, his face was gloomy, as if she had not met his expectations, and looked a little gloomy.
Chen Wanting didn't understand, but she suppressed the smug expression on her face and looked at the masters sitting at the main seats.
It was not a big deal at first glance, but I was shocked when I looked again. The empress dowager sitting on the main seat had a dark face and no joy at all. The empress dowager's eyes, which originally had a kind look, looked a little scary at this moment.
The Emperor kept staring at the Empress intently, not paying any attention to her.
The focused eyes and gentle movements can give people goose bumps.
The Queen was the most normal among them, but because Xiao Jin was pulling her sleeve, she couldn't sit upright. She could only whisper something to the Emperor without even looking at him.
Chen Wanting then realized that she had danced entirely for the old ministers.
Those old ministers were old enough to be her grandfathers. Not to mention the emperor, even the empress dowager didn't look at them much.
"Your Highness wishes the Queen Mother good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains."
Helplessly, Chen Wanting could only go and remind the Queen Mother herself, hoping that she could say a few good words for her, or even better, bypass the Emperor and the Queen and take her into the palace directly.
"Well, Wanting is charming and graceful. Her Guangling dance is world-famous. She is a good child, talented and graceful. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
As Chen Wanting listened to the Queen Mother's praise, a blush of anticipation unconsciously appeared on her face, and her eyes slowly moved up from the bottom to the top. This was also something she had specially trained herself to do.
This kind of look was commonly used in brothels, giving people a sense of shyness that was about to bloom, little by little. Although Chen Wanting didn't know whether the emperor would buy into it or not, she did it this way.
Xiao Jin had to find time to answer the empress dowager's questions, but his attitude was extremely perfunctory.
"As long as the Queen Mother likes it."
"If nothing happens—"
Xiao Jin was already impatient to stay here. He could see that his Xier was unwilling to get close to him in such an occasion, which made him feel a little annoyed.
He wanted to take her back to Fengyi Palace and give her a good kiss to see if she would dare to hide from him. This little girl made him feel itchy.
……
The Queen Mother's goal had not yet been achieved, so how could she let him go? So she interrupted him and tried to leave.
"I feel that the emperor's harem is still too empty, and the queen lacks someone to talk to. The queen is pregnant, and the emperor has not selected any concubines, so he is in need of someone to serve her."
"I will make the decision today. Chen is beautiful and charming, and her dancing is moving. She should live in Xianfu Palace and be made a concubine to accompany the emperor. The emperor should have no objection."
The empress dowager said so much without giving the emperor a chance to interrupt her. In the end, she didn't even want to ask for the emperor's opinion and made the final decision directly.
But Xiao Jin is not a puppet. He hates people making decisions on their own. The Queen Mother didn't even ask him. Was she afraid that he would refuse?
"Mother!"
"I don't need any other women. If you insist on having Chen enter the palace, then I will reward her with being Li Peicong's concubine. That way, everyone will be happy."
As soon as Xiao Jin's words came out, everyone gasped and looked at each other, no one dared to speak.
The emperor's move was cruel enough. Even palace maids of noble birth were unwilling to marry eunuchs, let alone the daughter of a king of a different surname, as they feared it would be a great shame and humiliation.
Sure enough, when Xiao Jin finished speaking, the person who was most afraid and nervous was not the Queen Mother, but the father and daughter of the Chen family.
Especially Chen Wanting, she originally wanted to be a concubine, but the emperor made her marry a eunuch? Did he want her to become a joke to the world? Why did he humiliate her like this?
Chen Mo could no longer play deaf and dumb. He looked at Chen Wanting's face which turned suddenly pale, stood up and made a last effort.
"Your Majesty, my daughter has admired you for a long time. I have specially asked this old minister to bring her to this birthday banquet. I beg Your Majesty to fulfill my daughter's love."
Chen Mo sneered, not wanting to let Chen Wanting return empty-handed. Becoming the emperor's concubine would bring enormous benefits to the family, and he was reluctant to give up the benefits that were within his grasp.
"Hehe, it seems that Prince Chen is determined to send his daughter to the harem?"
Xiao Jin laughed softly, his voice full of warning.
Unfortunately, Chen Mo did not realize this and thought his lobbying had worked.
"Your Majesty, my daughter is so devoted, I really feel sorry for her, please forgive me for my love for her."
After Chen Mo finished speaking, he knelt down to let Xiao Jin see his determination. His kneeling also inspired Chen Wanting.
Chen Wanting also realized that this was the best opportunity, and perhaps the emperor would be persuaded by her father, so she also knelt down.
The Queen Mother also chimed in. She liked Chen Wanting. She was like herself when she was young. She could sacrifice her freedom for the benefit of the family. She thought she was a good person.
"Hahahaha, okay, Your Majesty, it's rare to meet someone so infatuated, so take her as your concubine."
The Queen Mother saw that Xiao Jin was silent for a long time and thought that he was considering the pregnant Song. Men are all lustful, and since Xiao Jin was unwilling to speak, she would do it.
"Empress, you are getting heavier and heavier now, and you can't serve the emperor. Concubines should be virtuous and kind. As the queen, you should set an example for the six palaces. What do you think?"
This was a trap for Song Lingxi. No matter what Song Lingxi answered, Xiao Jin would dislike her.
If Song Lingxi agreed to take a concubine, it would mean she was unfaithful to Xiao Jin.
If Song Lingxi disagrees, then she is not worthy of being the queen and a role model for women all over the world. At the same time, Xiao Jin will think she is jealous and become dissatisfied with her.
The Queen Mother sneered in her heart, just waiting for Song Lingxi to be fooled, which could also alienate the relationship between the Emperor and her. The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel proud from the bottom of her heart.
If Song Lingxi had not been pregnant, she would have hoped that the emperor would take more concubines, have more children, and choose a suitable heir.
But somehow, after she became pregnant, as her body became heavier, she became more dependent on Xiao Jin and didn't like his attention being diverted by other women.
Song Lingxi was a person who said whatever she thought. Her tricks were insignificant in the eyes of the empress dowager, so she fell into her trap.
"I think the emperor's wishes should prevail. However, Your Majesty, there is one thing I disagree with. If a woman loves her husband very much, she naturally does not want to share him with others."
"So, I don't want to."
As Song Lingxi finished her words, her soft voice, but her tone was so powerful that Xiao Jin was shocked from the inside out!
This was the first time he heard Song Lingxi say she loved him, how could he not be surprised?
"Xi'er, what did you just say?"
Xiao Jin was both happy and surprised. He was happy that Song Lingxi admitted her feelings for him, but he was surprised that he didn't even notice it and was still being jealous.
In fact, this day came sooner than he had imagined, and he was ecstatic, like a madman.
“Hahahaha, Xier——”
Xiao Jin lifted up Song Lingxi and spun her around twice, causing the girl to scream: "I'm scared, Your Majesty!"
Song Lingxi took out her little fist and punched his shoulder twice, finally making Xiao Jin regain some sanity and put him down carefully.
Xiao Jin feels so fond of Song Lingxi that he wants to hold her in his mouth for fear that she will melt, and to hold her in his hand for fear that she will fall. No matter how much he cherishes her, it can never be enough.
"Don't be afraid, I will always stand by you."
Double entendre.
Xiao Jin meant that he would be tied to Song Lingxi for the rest of his life, and the two of them would be of one mind and rule the world.
This time, he will stand firmly by Song Lingxi's side and support any decision she makes.
"Since the Queen and I are unwilling, then send him to the dungeon. You dared to destroy the deep love between the Emperor and the Queen, and almost caused the Queen and I to fall out. The dragon and the phoenix are not in harmony, and the world is in chaos."
"You have ulterior motives. Come, pass on my order to lock up the daughter of the Chen family in a dungeon and send heavy soldiers to guard her. No one is allowed to visit her for a period of ten years."
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, he carefully protected Song Lingxi and returned to Fengyi Palace, fearing that the daughter of the Chen family would suddenly attack and hurt Xier and the baby in her belly.
After the emperor left, Chen Wanting was forced to kneel on the ground, her face ashen. The pearl hairpins on her head were scattered all over the ground because of her struggle, and she looked extremely miserable.
She looked at Chen Mo with pleading eyes, hoping that her father could save him. She didn't want to be imprisoned for ten years. By the time she got out, she would have missed the best time to get married!
"Father, please save me, I don't want to be locked up!"
No matter how miserable Chen Wanting's cry was, Chen Mo never gave in. To him, his daughter was not as important as his son. She was imprisoned because of her own incompetence. What did he have to do with it?
"Queen Dowager, Queen Dowager, please save me——"
Seeing that her father Chen Mo was indifferent to this, Chen Wanting wished to stay as far away from him as possible. Knowing that he was unreliable, she turned her gaze to the Queen Mother.
She cried pitifully, hoping that the Queen Mother would be merciful and save her. If she was really imprisoned for ten years, the most precious time of a woman would be gone. What future would she have?
"Your Highness, you can't ignore me, Your Highness, Your Highness—"
Finally, the Queen Mother gave a look, and Chen Wanting was covered by the mouth and nose by the palace servants and dragged away forcibly.
Eventually, this turned into a farce.
A "lively and celebratory" birthday party ended in such a depressing way. Except for Xiao Jin and Song Lingxi, no one was happy.
