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

"No," Jiang Lingyue said quickly, "I was just talking nonsense."

She reacted quickly, but who was Qi Junyi?

How could he not see such a simple cover-up?

He lowered his eyes and looked carefully at the girl in his arms, and his relaxed brows gradually furrowed.

"I don't believe it," he said, emphasizing each word. "Explain to me clearly what you mean by 'your Yueyue'."

This name sounds really harsh to the ears.

A little ancestor had already disturbed his peace for two lifetimes, when did he have a "Yueyue"?

The long-lost strength made Jiang Lingyue silent for a moment.

In fact, His Majesty the Emperor has changed a lot in this life.

Compared to his previous life where he was secretive and didn't speak from the heart, in just a few months of this life, he was more open about his feelings than in the five years of his previous life combined.

At least Jiang Lingyue can clearly feel... his love.

So deep down in her heart, she also had doubts about how true and false the story about Chen Yue'er was.

...Am I really just a substitute for Chen Yue'er?

In her previous life, this incident was the biggest blow to Jiang Lingyue except for Jiang Lingxin's entry into the palace.

It is the cruel reality that she finds most difficult to face.

It made her very upset and caused her to collapse in pain.

As a woman, all her self-confidence and pride were completely shattered by these two things.

His cold and humiliating words first dealt her a heavy blow, and then, the fact that he only existed as a substitute made Jiang Lingyue completely understand what kind of person she was.

At that moment, the entire person's energy, spirit, and vitality collapsed.

That is a heart-wrenching pain.

The body is still alive, but the heart is dead.

In his mind, those painful memories that had been sealed tightly came flooding back.

She didn't want to revisit those memories.

But during this period, she was too defenseless in front of him, and in her joy, she actually revealed the existence of "Chen Yue'er".

So hastily, that protective background was punctured.

Jiang Lingyue only felt a sharp pain in all her limbs.

She tried to lower her eyes to hide the embarrassment that suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Really, it's so embarrassing.

But as soon as she lowered her eyes, the hand under her jaw suddenly tightened.

"…What's wrong?" Qi Junyi's pupils trembled, "Why are your eyes red?"

"No!" Jiang Lingyue clenched her palms, pursed her lips and didn't look at him, but her chin was clamped tightly by him.

After trying twice without success, my good mood disappeared.

Her face turned ugly, "Let me go first!"

The little girl in his arms had a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes with an inexplicable red glow, like a deer that had suffered a great injustice and was stubbornly unwilling to let anyone know, but was accidentally discovered.

And that sentence 'your Yueyue', everything about it revealed that something was wrong, it would be strange if Qi Junyi could let go.

He lowered his head and looked into her eyes.

The red eyes made his heart ache suddenly.

"What happened..." Qi Junyi touched the red corner of her eye, gently with his fingertips as if afraid of hurting her.

He coaxed her gently and patiently, "Don't be angry, tell me first, don't keep me in the dark."

But no matter how much he coaxed her, the girl in his arms changed her good temper. Not only did she not answer him obediently, but she twisted her waist and struggled continuously.

In this situation, it is impossible to let her go.

Afraid of hurting her, Qi Junyi had no other choice but to hold her waist, stand up, and push her against the table.

"What are you so angry about? Tell me!"

He held her twisting waist with one hand and the back of her head with the other, his face showing a bit of impatience, "Explain it to me clearly!"

The power disparity between men and women is too great.

Jiang Lingyue tried her best to break free from his grip but failed, and instead sweat broke out on her forehead from exhaustion.

She reached out and punched him on the shoulder, "Let go! Stop pressing on me!"

The little fist didn't hurt, Qi Junyi didn't move at all, just looked at her with his eyes lowered, and asked again and again: "What Yueyue?"

"...Let go first," Jiang Lingyue turned her face away and didn't look at him, "It hurts my waist."

Her lower back was pressed against the edge of the table, which was indeed uncomfortable.

Qi Junyi frowned, but finally stood up straight and was about to pull her to continue sitting on his lap.

Jiang Lingyue stood there stiffly, refusing to sit down.

Qi Junyi didn't force her, but just held her wrist and said, "Tell me..."

It was a rare opportunity for him to glimpse the secrets of his previous life that he didn't know about, so how could he let her get away with it so easily?

"Do you really have to know?" Jiang Lingyue pursed her lips and said expressionlessly, "If I tell you that this is exposing my scars, do you still have to know?"

scar……

Qi Junyi's heart skipped a beat.

Unbeknownst to him, she had a scar.

That scar also concerns 'his Yueyue'...

It's really ridiculous.

But Qi Junyi couldn't laugh at all. With his keen sense, he could already figure out the general idea.

Then I thought about the little girl's red eyes and her expression of avoiding the topic...

This scar must have caused her so much pain that even after a lifetime, she still refuses to even touch it.

But when Qianqian thought about it, a familiar dull pain rose in her heart.

He took a deep breath, trying hard to control his surging emotions, and clenched his fingers together, restraining himself and clasping the girl's delicate wrist in his palm.

"You tell me first,"

His voice was hoarse. "You have to let me know who dared to give you this 'scar'."

The words were soft and the tone was dull, but they were filled with strong murderous intent.

It was like a tangible murderous intent, causing Jiang Lingyue's eyelashes to tremble as she lowered her head.

She was standing, so she didn't need to look up to see the grim look on the young emperor's gentle and handsome face.

Noticing her gaze, Qi Junyi's eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up, "Speak."

“…” An inexplicable sense of separation came over me.

Jiang Lingyue pulled back her hand feeling awkward, took two steps back, and sat back in her seat.

She said, "It's your Lian Guiji."

Having spoken, she didn't wait for him to ask further questions before continuing, "Your Consort Lian told me that you were deeply in love with her sister, but her sister was a beautiful woman with a tragic fate, and she wasn't blessed with such wealth, so it was only for me, who looks a bit like her, who got the chance."

Lian Guiji, whose name is Chen Lian'er.

She is Chen Yue'er's biological sister. Because there is already a Chen Shuyi in the palace, in order to avoid conflict, everyone in the palace calls her Lian Guiji.

It sounds like he has a special title.

Counting the days, she won't enter the palace until next year.

The unfamiliar title made Qi Junyi frown.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that there is such a person in your harem?" Jiang Lingyue said with a mocking look on her face.

This is the sister of his 'sweetheart', almost his real cousin-in-law.

Having said that, he could eat it. Since his elder sister was gone, he took in his younger sister.
