The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

Neither of them had expected that after the fierce argument that night, which was almost a fight between them, their relationship became more natural.

Perhaps it was because he had seen the emperor, who was wielding unfathomable power, with a face full of hostility and a boiling desire to kill, yet trying hard to calm himself down.

Jiang Lingyue felt that this king who looked down upon the world seemed... not so high and mighty and invincible.

At least, he will cry, get angry, and learn to swallow his anger.

...It wasn't as scary as she had thought.

His repeated concessions, coupled with the exposure of his most secretive secrets, made Jiang Lingyue no longer as cautious in front of him as before, and she was eager to carefully deal with every word and action.

These days, she has basically returned to her true self.

No more pretending to be nice to him.

In Qi Junyi's words, that's being spoiled by love.

Of course, you will be fearless if you are confident. Only when you are fearless can you develop the confidence to not compromise yourself.

However, Qi Junyi was more happy to see this happen than anyone else.

Before, he was often annoyed by her perfunctory attitude, but now...

Now that she was willing to reveal her true nature in front of him, he was of course happy.

Even though this girl's nature, in most cases...actually gave him a headache.

For example, he had been obsessed with taking advantage of others, but even though the atmosphere between the two of them had become closer over the past few days, he still couldn't get what he wanted.

There wasn't even a chance to get close to her.

Counting the days, His Majesty the Emperor didn’t even know how many days he had been a vegetarian.

At the age of full vigor and vitality, the lover is lying next to me... The feeling is simply indescribable.

That night, when Jiang Lingyue came out of the bathroom, she saw the burning gaze of the man on the couch.

Like a wolf so hungry that its eyes are green.

Half of her body was burned by that look.

It really makes people speechless.

She walked slowly to the couch and tried to start a conversation.

"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Someone from Shaoguang Palace came today and invited me to help organize a palace banquet," Jiang Lingyue said. "What do you think, Hengzhi? Should I go?"

Mid-Autumn Festival is a major festival, and the palace banquets held there are attended not only by concubines, but also by important officials of the court and members of the royal family.

This is a major event, involving the power of the harem and even the inner court.

Three years after Qi Junyi ascended the throne, the affairs of the harem have always been managed by Concubine Hui, assisted by Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu. But this time, Concubine Hui called her to join in.

Although there's a high probability that they have no good intentions, on the surface they do want to decentralize power...

The identity of a concubine is not enough to be affected by the power of the palace. Jiang Lingyue asked this question with the intention of testing her.

In her previous life, she ascended to the position of Imperial Concubine, but she never held power in the palace. In this life, she has only been a Concubine for three or four months and is not in a hurry to be promoted.

Jiang Lingyue just wanted to know whether His Majesty the Emperor intended to give her some power.

If so, does it mean that she also has the opportunity to go further than the position of imperial concubine in her previous life?

She knew that her scheming and tricks were like those of a child in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and she never intended to show off in front of him.

This temptation is very straightforward and crude.

easy to understand.

But who would have thought that the man who was half leaning on the couch seemed to have not understood at all and looked calm.

He held her wrist, squeezed it gently, and said lightly: "Don't get involved with them."

Hearing this, Jiang Lingyue was a little disappointed.

Yes.

His Majesty the Emperor has never liked her interacting with the concubines in the harem.

He would rather let her go out of the palace to play every day than let her get too close to his 'other women'.

He treated those women like air.

So, she had to do the same.

What's the difference between this and covering your ears and stealing the bell, deceiving yourself and others?

Whether they come or go, the concubines are there.

How could she completely avoid those people when she was in the harem?

Jiang Lingyue just thought it was outrageous.

Throughout history, haven't all emperors allowed their favorite concubines to ascend to high positions step by step, until they were finally above all other concubines?

Judging from the way he looks, he doesn't think so.

Concubines were not allowed to enter her Ning'an Palace, and she was not allowed to get too close to them.

Independent of the six palaces.

It's simply... like he's keeping her as a concubine.

Qi Junyi moved inward, lifted the corner of the quilt, and said, "Come up."

“…” Jiang Lingyue pursed her lips and went to bed.

Her side of the bed was perfectly warmed by the Emperor, without a trace of coldness.

Qi Junyi put down the book in his hand, stretched out his arm to hold her shoulders, and said, "In a few days, the antidote from Divine Doctor Li will be ready."

He had mentioned this before. It was related to his health. Jiang Lingyue was still very concerned. She nodded and said, "I remember it."

"Detoxification is a very serious matter. Removing the poison will damage your vitality. During this period, your body cannot afford to be damaged or tired."

Qi Junyi said slowly, "You don't need to worry about things like the palace banquet. Your most urgent task now is to take good care of your health."

As if he was afraid that she would have wild thoughts, he explained very patiently.

Every word he said showed concern for her health.

If she still has any objections, she will be ungrateful.

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Lingyue hummed softly and said lightly, "Then I will go and refuse it tomorrow."

She responded happily, and Qi Junyi lowered his head to look into her eyes.

"You really know?" He smiled slightly and said, "If you don't take it to heart, what crime are you trying to accuse me of?"

The tone was teasing, but it revealed a certain seriousness.

Jiang Lingyue raised her eyelids and glanced at him, pulled the hand off her shoulder, turned her back to him, and lay down.

Qi Junyi lay down immediately afterwards and leaned over to hug her, but she pushed him away with her elbow.

Look at this...

Qi Junyi sighed helplessly, "What's so great about organizing a palace banquet? Just think of it as a way to reassure me. Stay away from them."

This statement made it seem as if every woman in the harem was a monster.

Jiang Lingyue suddenly turned over and glared at him: "We are in the same harem, can I still avoid them forever?"

What a bullshit reason.

Isn't it just that you don't want her to be in charge of palace affairs?

She lived a life of luxury, was not bothered by anything, and was treated as a precious toy in his palm.

A treasure is a treasure, but a toy cannot have its own thoughts.

You can't worry about other things.

He wants to ruin her!
