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

Unless, he could show weakness in front of her repeatedly, just like in this life, wishing to offer her true heart and let her squeeze it and trample on it at will.

Otherwise, she wouldn't believe it.

But he can do this in this life because he has already lost once.

Her life was exchanged for the emperor, who never bowed to show weakness, to learn to bow his head.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lingyue became a little annoyed and glared at him, "Asshole!"

"..." The emperor, who was inexplicably scolded, held his forehead and said, "Okay, I'm a bastard."

This topic was not suitable to be continued, so the bastard changed the subject and asked about Chen Shuyi and Lu Mingyao's visit today.

It immediately brought Jiang Lingyue's thoughts back.

She recounted to him a summary of their afternoon conversation. When she spoke of Lu Mingyao's ambitions, her eyes lit up as she praised him, "You've chosen Concubine Hui to hold the Phoenix Seal. You truly have a keen eye for talent."

"Oh?" Qi Junyi tilted his head, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Lingyue said: "She is smart and sensible, and knows how to read people's expressions. She knows what to do and what not to do. She is also very capable and resourceful. She doesn't have you in her heart yet. She can take care of the affairs of the harem and leave you alone, but she won't come to you to seek your favor and get in your way."

It should be said that as long as her position was not shaken, Concubine Hui treated all the concubines in the harem equally and clearly defined rewards and punishments.

The entire harem was made so quiet by her.

If His Majesty the Emperor had not come to his senses halfway, the harem would have remained so quiet.

She praised a concubine lavishly, making Qi Junyi laugh and cry, "It seems that you are very satisfied with her."

"Of course!" Jiang Lingyue told her that Lu Mingyao knelt down to greet her as soon as she entered the door.

For the whole afternoon, she acted like a subject and was very respectful.

This is an extremely smart person.

Such smart people know what they want and can always recognize their own identity.

Be ambitious, dare to admit it, and be willing to risk your life for it.

Really, such people are likable regardless of gender.

She kept talking, her love was evident in her words. Qi Junyi's smile gradually faded and he stopped talking.

Jiang Lingyue finished speaking in one breath, looked at him in surprise and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Why are you suddenly so serious?

Qi Junyi glanced at her, pushed the teacup in front of her, and said indifferently: "You said you were thirsty, have some tea."

Jiang Lingyue: “…”

She didn't understand why, but she was indeed thirsty, so she picked up the teacup and drank it all.

Qi Junyi held the teapot and refilled her cup.

Pale yellow tea gushed out from the spout of the kettle. Jiang Lingyue watched as a sudden inspiration struck her. She looked up abruptly, "You're not jealous, are you?"

"No," His Majesty replied quickly, "I never get jealous."

"……Oh."

Jiang Lingyue nodded as if she didn't believe it, and didn't ask any more questions. She picked up the teacup and took a sip.

After talking for a whole afternoon, she was really thirsty.

On the opposite side, His Majesty the Emperor waited for a while, and when he saw that the little girl really no longer paid attention to him, he pursed his thin lips.

After a while, he tapped the table with his fingertips, attracting her attention, and said lightly: "The trial at the Dali Temple is almost over. The case will be judged tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"

This case is very serious, and even two first-rank concubines in the harem are involved.

The final decision must be made by His Majesty the Emperor himself.

Jiang Lingyue thought about it and nodded, "Then go."

It wasn’t because of the Jiang family, but mainly because she hadn’t seen Aunt Xie for several days.

Although Jiang Lingyue was in the palace, she was very clear about the developments in the Dali Temple.

The case was tried for many days, and Aunt Xie and Wan'er had been staying in the Dali Temple for more than ten days.

Wan'er was fine, she was quiet and undisturbed.

As for Aunt Xie, she is caught between two men, and her life is probably in chaos.

Jiang Lingyue suddenly chuckled, not knowing what she was thinking about. She looked up at the man opposite her and said, "You've already predicted that the show after Wang Shaofu returned to Beijing is indeed interesting."

Apart from anything else, the plot of two men fighting for one woman is even more exciting than in the storybook.

What's more, there is the Wang family who are jumping up and down to help.

Jiang Lingyue considered herself to be Xie Anning's in-laws, so she was naturally happy to see Wang Shaofu abandon his family. The Wang family was anxious and angry, and became a laughing stock.

The eldest son even gave up his family for the sake of his wife and daughter. Old Master Wang, who cares most about his reputation, has been claiming to be sick these days. Not only did he not attend the morning court, he didn't even leave the house.

The second and third masters of the Wang family went to the Dali Temple to invite their brother, but Wang Shaofu did not show up.

He only waited for Wang Yong to be by his side.

Wang Yong was carrying a handkerchief stained with Wang Shaofu's blood.

It was said that after his master returned to Beijing, he learned that his wife and daughter had left him and he was left alone. He could not bear the blow and vomited blood repeatedly.

I can't get out of bed now.

Filial piety is greater than heaven. A son should not speak of his father’s faults. Wang Shaofu did not dare to resent his parents.

He asked his loyal servant to convey a message that he would rather die than return to the royal family.

No one wants to blame their parents when dying.

But even when he was dying, he was unwilling to return to the Wang family.

Seeing this scene, no one can say that Wang Shaofu is unfilial.

Even among the people in the capital, there were many voices praising him for his kindness and righteousness.

I can do this for my wife who cannot give birth to a son.

This is the love that comes from marriage. Who among those who have been married doesn’t have a first wife?

How many men can be so affectionate and loyal to their original wives?

No one can remain unmoved.

Especially in the eyes of the noble ladies in the capital, Wang Shaofu has become a contemporary love saint.

Of course, after the concubines in the harem are cleared out, the position of the love saint will belong to His Majesty the Emperor.

And now, Jiang Lingyue's face was full of gloating smiles, "Tell me, based on your understanding of Wang Shaofu, can he really take the initiative to withdraw and let Aunt Xie and Ishihara Qing achieve a happy ending?"

Qi Junyi said: "No."

Jiang Lingyue was not surprised. She snorted and laughed, "Now he still knows how to play the victim and deliberately get hurt just to live in the Xie family. Tsk, then let him see Aunt Xie and Ishihara Qing's sweet love with his own eyes, and let him cry."

"..." Qi Junyi was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked her, "Why does Yueyue think that your Aunt Xie will never forgive Wang Shaofu?"

Before Jiang Lingyue could speak, he reminded her, "You know about the death of Xie's mother and daughter in your previous life, but she herself doesn't know."

Yes.

This is why Jiang Lingyue tried every possible means to find a new man for Xie Anning.

Because she knew that Aunt Xie died in the Wang family in her previous life, she didn't want her to come back in this life.

But Xie An Ning himself didn't know that.

In her eyes, she had no mortal hatred with the Wang family, and her rift with Wang Shaofu was only because he broke his promise to take a concubine.

That's all.

Now, Wang Shaofu has paid the price for this.

He did everything a man who loved his wife deeply could do in the situation.

Even, far beyond.

He rushed back to the capital without sleep just to protect his wife and daughter.

When he came back, he saw his wife kissing and hugging another man lovingly.
