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

The palace door slowly closed, and they were the only two left in the room.

Qi Junyi uncorked the bottle, and a round brown pill lay in his palm.

He picked up the pill, fed it to her lips, and said, "Eat it."

The familiar aroma of medicine filled my nostrils.

Jiang Lingyue opened her lips gently, and as the pill entered her mouth, she was finally sure that she had eaten this thing in her previous life.

It was also after Doctor Li entered the palace.

But at that time, she was so weak that she needed someone to help her get out of bed. Only after taking this mind-concentrating pill did she have the strength to get out of bed.

...It must be an extremely rare life-saving medicine.

It turned out that he had hidden so much from her without her knowing.

Seeing that she swallowed the pill without saying a word, Qi Junyi asked, "Is there anything you want to ask?"

Is there anything you want to ask?

Jiang Lingyue had so many questions.

But she kept in mind that she must not reveal the fact that she was reborn, so many questions were not so easy to ask.

While she was thinking, she took the initiative to hold his hand.

Qi Junyi liked her closeness to him, so he let her hold his hand, but he smiled and said, "Yueyue just saw that miracle doctor and seemed very surprised."

"!!!"

Jiang Lingyue's heart skipped a beat, but her hands didn't stop moving. She was still playing with his fingers slowly, and said calmly, "I am just surprised that you summoned me and didn't allow me to avoid taboos."

She was indeed surprised by this.

Qi Junyi pondered for a few moments and stopped dwelling on this question.

If he got closer, he could probably hear the girl's heartbeat next to him, each beat louder than the last.

Jiang Lingyue let go of his hand, poured herself a cup of cold tea, and drank away the panic in her heart along with the tea.

She took a deep breath and asked, "Your Majesty once warned me that the Shen family's ancestral home is in Lingnan, a region rich in poisons... So, was the poison in my body injected by my stepmother, Shen?"

"Yes." Qi Junyi nodded, his voice clear and powerful.

"How could this happen?" Jiang Lingyue's lips trembled slightly, and her bright eyes were full of disbelief at being betrayed by her 'relatives'.

My eyes quickly filled with tears, and they fell one by one.

"Why are you crying?" Qi Junyi frowned, grabbed her wrist with his backhand, pulled her into his arms and hugged her, scolding her in a low voice: "Crying for those people, don't you think it's worth it?"

As he spoke, he pinched her jaw and lifted it up, then lowered his head and placed his lips on her eyelids, "Don't cry."

Her crying, besides making him feel distressed, would only increase his murderous intent towards the entire Shen family and the Jiang family.

He wants to let the Jiang family go, so stop crying.

Jiang Lingyue clutched his sleeves, sobbing softly, staring at him with moist eyes: "Do my father and brother know?"

"..." Qi Junyi was silent for a while. Seeing her stubbornly waiting for an answer, he said helplessly: "I don't know. It was Shen who made the decision on her own."

He didn't lie to her. At this time, the Jiang family really didn't know.

Hearing this, Jiang Lingyue's eyelashes trembled, and a crystal teardrop fell on the back of Qi Junyi's hand. His fingertips suddenly stopped, but the girl in his arms still smiled with a tearful look on her face.

"It's great that they don't know," Jiang Lingyue sniffed and repeated softly, "It was the Shen family who acted on their own initiative. They didn't want me to die."

Qi Junyi couldn't bear to watch the little girl's humble desire for family affection any longer, so he bent down and kissed her lips that were still chattering.

"If you dare shed another tear," he said in a deep voice, emphasizing each word, "I will take you here."

"..." Jiang Lingyue sobbed and choked, "Even His Majesty wants to bully me?"

Anyone who sees the little girl staring at people with red eyes and making accusations will say that she is so pitiful.

But the man who always patiently coaxed her hummed softly and said, "Yueyue, remember this, only I can bully you, and you can only cry for me."

When Jiang Lingyue heard the words, her pupils dilated instantly.

This time I'm not pretending.

I can't even continue acting.

……What's the meaning?

What does it mean!

Thinking that the little girl was timid, Qi Junyi's eyes softened and he coaxed her in a low voice: "Be good, and I won't bully you too much."

Jiang Lingyue: “…”

He added, "As for the others who bully you, I will take care of them for you."

In fact, he did say this, but Jiang Lingyue didn't take it seriously at the time.

And now, she had to take it seriously.

He had said long ago that he would take action against the Shen family, and in his previous life, the Shen family was completely raided.

She swallowed.

...In the previous life, it couldn't be because of her that the Shen family collapsed.

What about Shen?

After Jiang Shao's death, could it be that Shen, who committed suicide for her husband, was secretly executed by him?

In an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed through Jiang Lingyue's mind, and her heart was extremely complicated.

It was as if something that was so firm and deep-rooted had a shallow crack.

The crack was so tiny, almost invisible, but it was indeed cracked.

Is there any truth about her past life that she doesn't know?

Or was she overthinking?

Shen is Jiang Lingxin's biological mother. It is true that he dotes on Jiang Lingxin, so how could he bear to kill her biological mother?

Thinking of this, Jiang Lingyue's thoughts quickly returned to normal.

Yes, Jiang Lingxin is his favorite. She was promoted to the third-rank concubine when she entered the palace. No one else has had this honor, and she cannot compare to him.

It is true that the emperor is passionate, but it is also true that he is ruthless.

If you can pamper her, you can certainly pamper others even more.

She shouldn't be bewitched and have any more delusions.

The poison was administered by Shen, but that only meant that the concubines in the harem did not use their methods on her.

That's it.

"Don't be afraid," she said for a long time without saying anything. Qi Junyi thought she was frightened by the fact that she was poisoned, so he comforted her, "You just heard it too. The poison is not serious. There is medicine to cure it. I will not let anything happen to you."

Jiang Lingyue nodded gently, put her arms around his neck, buried her face in the crook of his neck, and said sullenly, "Your Majesty, I believe in you."

I believe you never intended to take my life.

I believe that after you are reborn, you will want to make it up to me from the bottom of your heart.

In the empty hall, the two of them hugged each other quietly, their breaths intertwined, and they were very close.

Qi Junyi was held in her arms, and worried that her neck would be sore, he put his hand on the back of her neck and gently massaged it.

He really loved the girl in his arms, who was so gentle and submissive that she seemed to trust him wholeheartedly. Even though there were still many memorials on the imperial desk that he had not reviewed, he was reluctant to push her away.

After a long moment, Jiang Lingyue was the first to release her hand. An embarrassed smile appeared on her tear-stained face. "Your Majesty is very busy with government affairs. Am I delaying your handling of government affairs? How about I take my leave first?"

Qi Junyi lowered his eyes and looked at her. Seeing that her expression had returned to normal, he still felt worried.

How could a teenage girl not be affected when she found out that she was poisoned?

He refused to let her go, so he took her hand and stood up, saying, "Grind some ink for me."

The emperor had the taste for beautiful women, so Jiang Lingyue had no choice but to do as he was told.

Just as she stood up, she saw the food box left on the table.

"..." Qi Junyi held his forehead with a headache, reached out to close the food box, and warned: "Don't eat this, your body is precious, you can't make any mistakes, be careful not to eat too much and get an upset stomach."

The poison of the Immortal Drunk will make a person weak, like an assassin lurking in the body. It will remain silent when the person is healthy, but once the person is infected with an illness, it will make the situation worse and deliver a fatal blow.

This was what happened in her previous life. After her miscarriage, her body became weaker day by day.

Finally, it reached the point where there was almost no cure.

Thinking of the ridiculous reason for her death, Qi Junyi tightened his grip on her hand, "No mistakes allowed, do you hear me?"

Jiang Lingyue was startled by the sudden change of expression and nodded hurriedly, "I won't eat it."

It wasn't a good thing, and she didn't have to eat it.

Qi Junyi called Liu Rong and told him to bring in a few plates of cakes. He then pointed to the food box on the table and said, "Take it down."

"Yes."

Liu Rong bowed and stepped back, and when he saw the intact 'pastries' inside, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He almost thought that his two masters wanted to eat this thing.

God knows how shocked he was when he saw what was in the food box just now.
