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

The carriage was still moving slowly forward, and inside the spacious and comfortable carriage, the two people looked at each other.

One person shrank in fear, and the other had bloodshot eyes.

His Majesty the Emperor's eyes are actually very beautiful, long and narrow, deep, with thick eyelashes, but there are probably few people in the world who dare to look him in the eye.

At this moment, Jiang Lingyue, who was pinched by the jaw and forced to look at him, could clearly see his scarlet eyes.

In past and present lives, she had witnessed his gentle indulgence, his alienation and indifference, and also his cold calmness when he spoke heartbreaking words.

But she had never seen him like this.

It seems like it will get out of control at any time.

...maybe even out of control.

She tried her best to calm herself down, thinking about what to say to break the current situation, but the hand that pinched her jaw exerted a little force, and Qi Junyi lowered his head and moved closer.

"Speak," he leaned his forehead against hers, his eyes fixed on hers, and said, "Even though our Yueyue is full of lies, I still want to hear your side of the story."

The voice was surprisingly gentle.

Jiang Lingyue's heart suddenly tightened and a chill ran down her spine when she heard this.

"...That time...was an accident," she swallowed, forcing herself to remain calm. "It really was an accident. On a reunion festival like Mid-Autumn Festival, I was forgotten by my father and brother. I couldn't help but feel sad, so I drank a little more, and...we..."

She stumbled over her words, and in the end, under his intense gaze, she closed her eyes and said with a fearless attitude, "The reason we didn't leave the wine cellar is because we were all drunk."

She was really drunk that time, she didn't lie.

"I can swear that I really did not do anything inappropriate with Master Chen that night." She reached out to grasp his collar, her expression sincere. "Your Majesty, please believe me this time."

Qi Junyi listened quietly the entire time. Finally, he looked at the slender hand on his collar and said, "Are you done?"

Sensing his gaze, Jiang Lingyue's knuckles trembled, and she subconsciously loosened the strength in her hands.

She wanted to say something else, but her lips were pressed by his fingertips.

"Okay, it's my turn to speak."

"Now, I ask you questions."

His slender knuckles slowly and methodically flicked her lips.

It didn't hurt, but the action was a bit disrespectful, causing Jiang Lingyue to frown. She said with trembling eyelashes, "Yes."

Then I heard the voice of the man in front of me.

"Has he touched here?"

"..." Jiang Lingyue was confused for a moment until her lips were poked hard by him and she realized what he was talking about. Her almond-shaped eyes widened.

"No!" She felt as if her tail had been stepped on. If her jaw hadn't been held tightly, she would have almost jumped up. "How could we do such a thing!"

He actually guessed that!

How could he think like this!

This is how he thought of her and Chen Ziwei!

Although her biological mother died early, she was carefully brought up by her grandmother when she was young. Although she did not learn poetry, books and etiquette to a great extent, she never dared to forget the most important thing for a girl: cherishing herself.

She had to discuss marriage with Chen Ziwei in secret because she was forced to do so and had no other choice. She had to find a way out for herself.

But even if she was desperate, she never thought of losing her reputation by having physical contact with Chen Ziwei, forcing Jiang Shao and Shen to accept it.

She entered the palace with a clean record, and he was the only man she had in her two lives.

He knew her innocence better than anyone else, yet he could think of her like this!

But the person in front of her was the emperor, and she was his concubine.

Jiang Lingyue was so shocked and panicked by being misunderstood that she didn't even have time to get angry before it all turned into fear.

"Your Majesty actually thinks of me like this." She was so nervous that she even forgot to call herself that. Her eyes widened with disbelief. "In your eyes, am I just like what Shen said, a woman who would do anything to avoid marrying into the Shen family?"

From the moment Qi Junyi asked that question, he had been looking at her intently, and even the slightest changes in her expression were all visible to him.

He didn't expect to get an answer from her at all. He wanted to judge for himself this question that had tormented him for two lifetimes.

Hearing her question, the hand holding her chin trembled slightly, and then slowly loosened.

Her skin was delicate, and after he pinched her jaw for so long, the two fingerprints on her face were very obvious.

He took a look and bent down to kiss her.

Although she had regained her freedom, Jiang Lingyue didn't even dare to turn her face away. She clenched her fists, tilted her face up and stood still, letting him kiss her.

Soon, his breathing became disordered, and his lips moved along his jaw to hers.

When the distance was very close, he stopped.

"Yueyue..."

Jiang Lingyue clearly saw his Adam's apple roll.

He asked, "What was it like when you were closest?"

Jiang Lingyue's breathing stagnated. Just as she was thinking about how to respond, she heard him say, "To be honest, that happened before I entered the palace. I don't blame you. I just want to hear the truth."

"..." Perhaps it was because his eyes were too terrifying, as if they could penetrate people's hearts, or perhaps he was worried that if his lies were discovered, he would make indiscriminate guesses without any bottom line.

In short, Jiang Lingyue really believed that he would not blame them, and actually chose to tell the truth to the emperor.

She opened her lips tremblingly, "Hold..."

After she finished speaking, she saw the man's sharp eyebrows and eyes in front of her, and quickly said, "Just once! There is no other ambiguity."

Qi Junyi looked at her with his back teeth gritted.

Hug it!

Who gave her the courage to let other men hug her!

No ambiguity yet!

He is a man. How could he not know whether there is any ambiguity in a man hugging his beloved girl?

Jiang Lingyue shrank her neck and continued to explain, "He took me to the wine cellar and needed to climb over the wall. There really was no other meaning."

Holding the wall...

In an instant, a picture appeared in my mind.

Qi Junyi's expression changed again and again, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What else?"

"……what?"

"Besides hugging you this time, what else?"

"No more!" He had already told the truth, but he still wanted to think about it. Jiang Lingyue suddenly became anxious and raised three fingers and said, "I am willing to swear. Apart from this, if Chen Ziyu hugs me again, I will never... Ugh!"

He held back the rest of the words and couldn't utter them.

"Shut up!" His pupils trembled slightly, and he shouted sternly, "Don't talk nonsense!"

That word is his taboo.

During the Lantern Festival in his previous life, he hurried back from the Taiji Temple, but what he saw was her gradually cooling body. This word became his taboo.

In the days that followed, everyone in the palace, the court, and even the people of the world knew that the late imperial concubine in Changyue Palace was his beloved.

Even though he was mad with jealousy, he still cared about her health and didn't dare to question her beloved daughter.

No one had ever made him willing to endure this.

Therefore, the moment she closed her eyes, she was tearing his heart out.
