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

Jiang Lingyue couldn't bear to listen any longer. She suddenly pulled her hand away and said, "Aunt Xie, don't worry about anything else. This is your life. The decision of divorce should be entirely up to you."

As she spoke, she glanced at the man beside her with a half-smile, "If divorce means both sides will suffer, then if you swallow your anger and stay, you might be the only one who gets hurt."

Childhood sweethearts, young couples, the deeper the love they once had, the deeper the hurt will be when the relationship changes.

The pressure of being childless for a woman is self-evident. Aunt Xie carried this burden for more than ten years, and in the end, she was abandoned by her husband and tortured by her mother-in-law.

Wan'er is safe in this life, and Aunt Xie's fate has been changed. Because she wanted to break off the engagement with the Yao family, she saw through the Wang family and Wang Shaofu, and only then did she have the courage to divorce.

But what about the previous life?

In her previous life, her husband changed his mind and took a concubine. She endured it all for the sake of her daughter's future, but her daughter ended up dying unexpectedly.

Her Aunt Xie could no longer bear it and passed away soon after her daughter. No one knew whether she died of illness due to excessive grief or committed suicide because she had no desire to live.

But no matter which one it is, it proves that Aunt Xie no longer has any attachment to Wang Shaofu.

After all, as long as there is still a trace of attachment to the world, the couple can comfort each other after the loss of their daughter, and with time to heal, they will always be able to get over it.

At such a young age, Wang Shaofu has fallen into decline in the Wang family's backyard. Can he be innocent?

Will not!

Even after losing his wife and daughter, he came to his senses and was heartbroken, but this was what he deserved.

Whenever Jiang Lingyue thought of the miserable end of Aunt Xie and her daughter in her previous life, anger would surge to the top of her head.

She dodged the Emperor's hand, which he extended again, and said firmly, "Your Majesty, do you think what I said makes sense?"

The long-lost self-proclaimed name made Qi Junyi's face slightly tense.

He withdrew his hand that was frozen in mid-air, hummed softly, and agreed, "That makes sense."

Nanny Qian and Liu Rong, who were standing beside him, were no longer surprised by their Majesty's worthless appearance.

But the fear in Xie An Ning and Wang Wan's hearts was about to overflow from their eyes.

They knew that Jiang Lingyue was favored, but they never imagined that she was favored in this way.

Throughout history, which concubine would dare to treat the monarch in such a manner?

Not to mention concubines, even the queen had to bow her head and listen to the monarch's instructions.

——No wonder he was so confident just now, saying that no one in the harem dared to bring trouble to Ning'an Palace.

indeed.

With such favor from the emperor and her status as the head of the four concubines, she really can look down on everyone.

This topic ends here.

Xie An Ning sat down again, and the hall became quiet again.

Jiang Lingyue didn't realize how scary the person next to her was. After all, after her rebirth, the two of them had been facing each other day and night, and she had long been accustomed to it.

Except for the beginning when she had not yet revealed her rebirth, she was still nervous and cautious. Later, when her disguise was exposed, she simply gave up and refused to even act with him.

In addition, this person's attitude in front of her became lower and lower, almost to the point of asking for whatever she wanted.

She could clearly feel the strong love from him.

It’s so vast, and it might even be just the tip of the iceberg.

The love was continuously transmitted to her from his side, building up her confidence bit by bit.

...or a sense of security.

Logically speaking, love, especially the love of an emperor, is the most illusory thing. With Jiang Lingyue's vigilance, she would just listen to it for fun and would never take it seriously.

But it cannot resist the love of His Majesty the Emperor, it can be seen and touched.

He really took action.

She had been a noble concubine for less than a year, and the Phoenix Seal was already in his hand. He also promised to make her the queen next year.

If it were just this, Jiang Lingyue thought, she would probably still attribute it all to the Emperor's compensation and unwillingness, or even a temporary sense of novelty.

But there is more to it than that.

Not only did he plan to make her the queen, he also began to disband the harem.

This is an extremely shocking thing. It can be said that there is no second emperor who dismissed concubines from his harem even after searching through many history books.

The founding emperor and empress had a deep relationship, and there was no third person between them, but Emperor Gaozu never took concubines, so there was naturally no question of disbanding the harem.

But that's not enough.

He has never visited other concubines!

There has never been another woman.

From the beginning, she was special.

What His Majesty the Emperor did cannot be explained by compensation, unwillingness, or novelty.

He is such a cold and rational person who is good at hiding his emotions.

I care a lot about it, but what was actually leaked is probably less than half a cent.

If it wasn't true love without any impurities, how could it be possible to achieve such a level?

Jiang Lingyue never thinks too highly of herself, but she also won't belittle herself.

This man just loves her.

Even if his love faded with the passage of time, she was sure that he would never give such a strong and sincere love to another woman in his life.

Based on the above, she had enough confidence to "be herself" in front of him.

After all, no girl would be afraid of a man who loves her so much that he allows her to have whatever she wants.

Jiang Lingyue didn't feel much fear, but Xie Anning and Wang Wan, mother and daughter, were really uneasy.

They had been away from Beijing for many years, and this was the first time they had met the emperor at such close range.

The atmosphere in the hall, which was full of laughter and chatter just now, became a little stiff and cold with the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor.

Xie An Ning felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. After finishing a cup of tea, she couldn't help but stand up and ask for leave again. "I've troubled Your Majesty and Your Majesty for a long time. I still have some complicated matters to attend to at home, so I'll take my leave first."

Jiang Lingyue refused.

She said, "Since you're here, why don't you stay for lunch before leaving?"

It was almost time for dinner, and being able to stay in the palace for a meal was a great honor.

If the old lady of the Wang family was sensible, she would not treat her eldest daughter-in-law badly in the future after seeing that she had won the favor of the imperial concubine in the palace.

Xie An Ning was touched, but she had her own plans about divorce and was about to refuse when Jin Shu came in to ask for instructions.

Lunch is ready.

Jiang Lingyue stood up immediately after hearing this and said, "Aunt Xie, please stop being polite. It's just lunch. Why bother you?"

In this case, Xie Anning had no choice but to give up.

But both mother and daughter were a little flattered and very uneasy.

After all, the honor of dining with the emperor is a rare privilege, even for important officials in the court.

The dining table was large, with servants serving them. There was also a rule of not talking while eating. Except for Jiang Lingyue who ordered the palace maids to serve the dishes to the mother and daughter when she had some decent dishes, the place was very quiet.

After the meal, the emperor went to the study specially set up in Ning'an Palace to handle government affairs.

As soon as he left, both mother and daughter breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, Xie Anning asked to resign again.

This time, Jiang Lingyue did not try to keep the guest, but asked Nanny Qian to see him off personally.

After the mother and daughter left, she turned and went to the study.

She was really curious about what the emperor had just done and why he had to give those words of advice. He had previously said that in his previous life, Wang Shaofu's personality changed drastically after the death of his wife and daughter.

What kind of "big change" is this?
