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

Jiang Lingyue was somewhat accustomed to the way his expression changed whenever he disagreed with her. She sat in his arms without struggling, but instead raised her hand to touch his face.

What a beautiful face, handsome and charming, even the coldness between the eyebrows makes people greedy.

From his deep eyebrows, slowly slid down to his straight nose, passing by little by little, and finally couldn't help but hold his face, kissed him, and said frankly: "Compared to the previous life, I think I like you more now."

In her previous life, she was of low status and was just one of the many concubines in his harem. Under such circumstances, her love for him could not be said to be pure.

Just like with Chen Ziwei, she regarded Chen Ziwei as a life-saving straw and wanted to marry into the Chen family to get rid of the control of the Shen family. She was more weighing the pros and cons. If he was not the eldest son of the Chen family with a promising future, she would not choose him.

Of course, she definitely likes Chen Ziwei. After all, even if she is desperate, she will not let herself marry a man she has no feelings for.

The same was true for the emperor in her previous life. Rather than liking him as a person, it would be better to say that she liked the warmth he brought her.

Like a charcoal fire in the snow, like a source of hope in despair.

She needs to be close to him to feel safe, and liking him only makes her feel more comfortable in the process.

In her previous life, she needed him, so she liked him.

But it is not like that in this life.

In this life, she discovered that to like someone means to be able to put yourself in the other person's shoes and feel their emotions.

This kind of liking is not utilitarian in nature.

Jiang Lingyue didn't want to hide her thoughts.

She sniffed, held his face even harder, leaned forward and pecked his lips again, "Qi Hengzhi, I really like you, do you believe me?"

"..." Qi Junyi's Adam's apple rolled, and he said in a hoarse voice: "A letter."

The pain in her eyes was not concealed, how could he not believe it.

It is said that the underlying feeling of loving someone is heartache.

Qi Junyi is like this.

He really couldn't bear to let her go. As long as she appeared in front of him, even if she didn't say anything, his usually cold heart would soften.

I want to hold her in my arms, coax her, and kiss her little by little, over and over again.

Now, she also understands how to feel sorry for him.

...It seems like he really made it through.

Perhaps because he was extremely happy, Qi Junyi's eyes were a little red. He stared into her eyes intently, "Do you only like me?"

"Yes!" Jiang Lingyue bit his lips again, without dodging or avoiding, and answered directly: "I only like you, and I will never look at anyone else in the future. I only want you forever."

"What about Chen Ziyi?" Qi Junyi lifted her chin, looked into her eyes, and stubbornly asked the question buried deep in his heart, "How much did you like him when you liked him the most?"

"..."

This jealous person.

"Your Majesty..." Jiang Lingyue was speechless, unable to put it into words, "You're almost pickled in vinegar. Can you smell it?"

"Don't change the subject," Qi Junyi pursed his lips, "Tell me the truth."

Even though he knew that it happened before she entered the palace, he still couldn't hide his bitterness when he thought about the girl having fallen in love with other men.

I can't help but wonder what it's like for them to get along with each other.

He couldn't stand the fact that his beloved girl had someone else in her heart.

Seeing this jealous look, Jiang Lingyue couldn't help but sigh. She claimed that she had nothing to hide about her relationship with Chen Ziwei.

At this moment, he was extremely frank and said directly: "I didn't like him much even when I liked him the most. I have a very stubborn personality. If it really came to the point where I had to have him, even if he was locked up in the family temple, I would find a way."

"Think about it, entering the palace wasn't my only option back then..."

"I can completely pretend to agree to Shen's arrangement and marry her nephew. After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. The wedding ceremony cannot be too hasty. It will take some time to get married. That time is enough for me to contact Chen Ziwei and... ask him to find a way to help me escape from the Jiang family."

However, rather than abandoning everything and eloping, she resolutely chose to enter the palace, betting on Chen Ziwei's constancy.

Of course, she believed in Chen Ziwei's sincerity at that time, and she also believed that even if they eloped, with his character, he would overcome all difficulties and give her the title of wife.

But marrying into the Chen family with the reputation of eloping, how much gossip would she have to endure?

Chen Ziwei cannot be the head of the Chen family. Even if he can love her consistently, he cannot stay by her side all the time.

At that time, she will face a life where her parents-in-law dislike her, her aunts and sisters-in-law are dissatisfied, and they think that she has brought shame to the Chen family. There will also be countless rumors from the outside world.

Those gossips would break her spine and make her feel inferior to others.

Once she sets foot in such a day, it will last a lifetime.

However, no matter how bad the Chen family's life was, it was still much better than marrying Shen's nephew.

If she had to choose between the two, there was no doubt that she would choose Chen Ziwei, even if it meant eloping.

But at that time, the imperial decree for the draft was issued.

So, Jiang Lingyue had three options to choose from.

After weighing the pros and cons, she chose the third option.

She said these words to tell this jealous man that her love for Chen Ziwei was not really that deep.

With Qi Junyi's intelligence, he did understand.

This was the first time she admitted her feelings for Chen Ziyu while she was sober.

Moreover, this good impression was actually very insignificant according to what she described.

She spoke with sincerity, openness and without reservation.

——She wanted to help him resolve this issue from the bottom of her heart.

Realizing this, Qi Junyi, who had always acted decisively, hesitated a little about his decision.

...Do you really want to use this trick to test her?

What's wrong with trusting her once?

He could feel that at this moment, she really had him in her heart.

As for whether there were other people, she said no, so he should try to believe it once.

...Just once!

Qi Junyi has never been a person who would drag his feet, and he quickly made up his mind, but he felt a tight pain in his chest.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the sour feeling, and lowered his head to hold her lips.

"Yueyue..." His voice was hoarse, and he spoke word by word, "Don't break my trust."

Hearing this, Jiang Lingyue's breath caught in her throat. She held his face and kissed him back hard.

"Okay!" She said seriously, "You too, Qi Hengzhi, you too!"

Don't violate my trust!

This kiss was almost uncontrollable.

Fortunately, Jiang Lingyue always remembered that this was Chengming Palace, not the study in Ning'an Palace, and she couldn't do anything wrong. That's why she held the emperor's wrist when he couldn't help but take off his clothes.

His Majesty the Emperor obediently restrained his desire, took her hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it, his red eyes filled with a smile, "Yueyue, tell me you love me."

"..." Jiang Lingyue was silent for a moment, then said unhappily, "Don't push your luck."

She just felt that she liked him, so she admitted it frankly.

That's it.

But she didn't say how much she loved him.

Qi Junyi smiled and didn't force it.

The two hugged each other tenderly for a while, then he stood up and walked to the secret compartment of the bookshelf to take out a jade box.

Inside is the last antidote pill.

Jiang Lingyue was surprised, "Is today the seventh day?"

It was quite a coincidence that she came.

After taking a detoxification pill, the smell of the medicine went up the throat. Jiang Lingyue felt inexplicably dissatisfied. She raised her arms, climbed onto the neck of the person in front of her and kissed him again, and the slightly bitter smell of the medicine was also transmitted to him.

She suffered, so he should have a taste of it too!

His Majesty the Emperor was stunned for a moment, then held her neck and deepened the kiss.

Jiang Lingyue was not released until she was almost out of breath.

She swallowed and asked him, "Is it bitter?"

"It's not bitter." His Majesty the Emperor smiled slowly, the lust in his eyes was well concealed.

Jiang Lingyue: “…”

She glared at him angrily and strode towards the door, "I'm going back."

Qi Junyi didn't stop her, nor did he go back with her.

He watched her get on the sedan chair and drive away, then called out to Liu Rong, saying, "Send Lu Mingrui to see you."
