Jiang Lingyue was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Here I am."

Lady Zhao's belly has grown quite big. It has been almost eight months.

This is the Emperor's first child, and everyone in the court and the country is keeping an eye on him.

Logically speaking, as the weather was getting colder, she, a pregnant woman about to give birth, should stay in her bedroom and take good care of the baby.

Even if you want to move around, just walk around the palace.

But ever since His Majesty the Emperor lifted the ban on Ning'an Palace, Lü Chonghua had been coming here for a few days, and Concubine Zhao had followed.

Jiang Lingyue felt a little nervous every time she looked at her pointed belly. She advised her several times not to wander around, but she refused to listen and kept muttering that she wanted to come and pay her respects with her sisters.

He also said that while the weather is not too cold, we should get out and exercise more, because once the baby is born, we will have to start hibernating.

Anyway, the reasons were one after another, and the attitude was extremely humble, so there was nothing wrong with it.

Jiang Lingyue couldn't kick them out either.

At this moment, when she heard the emperor asking about Concubine Zhao alone, she immediately explained, "I didn't deliberately make it difficult for her to come and pay her respects to me. It was she who refused to listen to my advice."

Qi Junyi was stunned by these words.

Did she think he was standing up for Lady Zhao and was trying to warn her?

When has he ever lost face for her for other women?

Even in his previous life when he was competing with himself, he had never done this.

Qi Junyi tried to hold it in, but in the end he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched her moist face, "What are you thinking about in your little head?"

"You are the only one in the harem now, and there will only be you in the future. I won't stop you from making things difficult for anyone."

He was angry and amused at the same time. After saying that, he pinched the chin of the girl in his arms and leaned over to kiss her lips.

The two lips touched, tasted each other gently, and the breath gradually became disordered.

Qi Junyi tried hard to suppress his crazy desire, pecked her crimson lips, and teased her in a hoarse voice, "Look, even I... am I not also letting you torture me..."

Jiang Lingyue was still immersed in the message conveyed by his previous words. She did not move at all and let him kiss her lightly or heavily.

After he stepped back, she blinked her somewhat dull eyes and said in a daze, "What did you say?"

Aren’t the only ones he wants to send out of the palace the concubines of low rank who have not given birth?

What do you mean, she will be alone in the future?

...Are Concubine Hui, Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian, and Chen Shuyi also going to be sent out of the palace?

Concubines of low rank like Lu Chonghua were not even qualified to attend palace banquets, and few people had heard of their names, so they were just sent away.

Concubine Hui and the others all hold high positions and are the masters of a palace who hold power in the palace.

Only one step away from the rear position.

Even if you die and are buried in the imperial mausoleum, you will have your own separate underground palace.

Even with such a noble status, he would be sent back home?

Also, Lady Zhao...

That's the biological mother of his eldest son!

Qi Junyi patted her little head and sighed softly, "I said, we will only be husband and wife in this life."

Monogamy.

His Majesty the Emperor's personal emotional strategist, Prince Lu, said that no matter whether a woman says she cares or not, as long as you want to please her, you should not let her have the slightest possibility of being unhappy.

This is especially unacceptable when there is a huge disparity in status.

Suddenly, Qi Junyi realized a truth.

——He shouldn't insist on letting his beloved girl experience the taste of jealousy.

He had tasted that flavor many times, and even with his patience, he still found it unpleasant.

But this girl is a hedgehog, very defensive. The more uncomfortable she is, the more dangerous she feels and the tighter she curls up.

If this goes on and on, it will be impossible to open my heart to him again.

Therefore, in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, the other concubines in the harem became thorns that hindered him from breaking through the defenses of his beloved.

Not a single one can be left behind.

And it must be sent out as quickly as possible, with lightning speed, cleanly and neatly.

They want to stay together forever, so how can they have other people hanging around in front of them from time to time?

His Majesty the Emperor's enlightenment was unprecedentedly high, but Jiang Lingyue felt as if she was listening to a foreign language.

She was silent for a few breaths, slowly calming down, then raised her eyes to look at him and said, "Let's not talk about the other concubines for now. You don't want Concubine Hui, Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian, and Concubine Zhao either?"

"No," Qi Junyi looked at her, his handsome features close to her, his eyes smiling, his voice soft, "I really didn't ask for it, do you believe it?"

Such a gentle and indulgent look really doesn't seem like he is just joking.

It's not about deceiving yourself.

At this moment, Jiang Lingyue actually believed it a little.

Those ridiculous words he had repeated many times echoed in his mind again.

He said, "If I only have you as my daughter, will you be happier?"

He said, 'I haven't touched anyone else. It's only you from beginning to end.'

What else did he say...

Jiang Lingyue's eyes were full of absurdity. "Whose child is that in Lady Zhao's belly?"

"It's hard to say," Qi Junyi sneered, "It's not mine after all."

The emperor mentioned that he was cuckolded and his child was about to be born, but his tone was not angry at all and he was very nonchalant.

Jiang Lingyue admired him but was also in disbelief. "Did it happen before or after entering the palace?"

If a man from outside the palace wants to enter the harem, he must be summoned by the concubine's family for an audience.

Concubine Zhao was of low status and had no right to summon her family. Not long after entering the palace, she was found to be pregnant...

Thinking of this, Jiang Lingyue felt it was even more outrageous. "How did she get selected to enter the palace if she wasn't a virgin?"

"This isn't a difficult task," Qi Junyi said with a smile, "It's normal for those great families that have been passed down for centuries to have such secret recipes."

So, Concubine Zhao really lost her virginity outside the palace. Under such circumstances, she still dared to enter the palace!

Jiang Lingyue felt a chill down her spine. "Does the Zhao family know about this?"
