The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth
Chapter 73: His Majesty the Emperor: All Wrong...
"So, Your Majesty doesn't think I'm a fool?" Her expression was cold, revealing a certain poignant beauty. She raised her wrist and pointed directly at the incense burner, saying, "Your Majesty, please don't tell me that you didn't even know about this musk cut."
As the words "cut off the musk deer" came out, Qi Junyi, who was about to stand up to comfort people, stopped moving.
"You know about Yue Mo?" He frowned slightly, his face gradually turning pale as he thought of something. "...When did you know?"
When did you know this?
Jiang Lingyue's whole body stiffened, and the surging anger quickly subsided like a tide. Her rationality returned, and she finally realized what she had said and calmed down completely.
The panic of revealing her cards only lasted for a moment before she figured it out.
There was nothing to regret, she just did what she wanted to do in her previous life.
While she was silent, Qi Junyi had already stood up. A hint of nervousness appeared on his handsome face. "Tell me, who told you that?"
"Is this important?" Jiang Lingyue clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves and said calmly, "No one has told me. Your Majesty, please don't vent your anger on others."
Qi Junyi frowned slightly, took a step forward and wanted to hold her hand, but this action made Jiang Lingyue take three steps back.
This man had excellent insight and was very sharp. She felt a little breathless when he stared at her. If she really let him get close to her at this moment, she couldn't guarantee that he would not notice anything.
Seeing him stamp his feet, Jiang Lingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She gathered herself together and said, "Your Majesty knows that I lost my mother at a young age and had no mother to teach me. Mrs. Shen also never hired a nanny to teach me the etiquette of a noble lady. During my time in the boudoir, I loved to read miscellaneous books, including a few medical books. It was by chance that I met this Musk-cutting Doctor."
She spoke her prepared remarks in one breath, then laughed at herself, "You asked me when I knew the incense I burn every night contained musk deer... Of course, it started from the first night I slept with you."
The first night started...
Qi Junyi's face turned paler and paler, as if he had lost all his strength in an instant, and his slender figure like a bamboo was shaking.
In other words, she knew it from the beginning.
The same thing happened in the previous life.
Then why had she never mentioned it?
...What does she think?
What did that girl think of him?
His face was pale, but his eyes were still looking at her. He asked stubbornly: "What did you think after you knew it?"
His voice was rough, no longer as calm and composed as before.
Jiang Lingyue had never seen him like this before, as if her answer was very important, so important that it could determine whether he would fall into darkness forever.
Inexplicably, more anger surged in her heart.
What do you think?
What else can I think?
She said calmly, "I am a lowly concubine, unworthy of bearing children for Your Majesty. Your Majesty, just give the order, and I will obey without a single complaint. However, you have clearly done so, yet you still repeatedly use the child to tease me..."
"Why?" She asked with a smile on her face, a look that was neither mocking nor scornful, "Looking at a woman who can't get pregnant, longing for a child day and night, pitiful, will make your Majesty happy?"
Two lifetimes later, when Jiang Lingyue thought about her miscarriage in her previous life, she still felt a chill in her heart when she thought about how he comforted her one after another on the surface, saying that she would have a child in the future, but in fact he was secretly preparing to cut off her musk deer feet.
She discovered the existence of Yueshe after she became a noble concubine.
So until now, she still doesn't know whether the musk deer scalp surgery was arranged for her after her miscarriage, or it was used even earlier.
——She knelt outside Shaoguang Palace for a while, but lost the child. Was it because she was intoxicated by the gods and her body could not bear the responsibility of giving birth to an offspring; or was it because she inhaled the musk deer, and the child she was lucky enough to conceive could not be saved.
This question will probably never have an answer.
Jiang Lingyue no longer has those obsessive loves and is unwilling to cling to this answer anymore.
She only knew that when she was experiencing the pain of losing her son, she felt sad and touched by his words of comfort, and she looked forward to the return of her lost child every day.
But he was cutting off her musk deer.
If his 'beloved' hadn't revealed it, she might never have known until her death that the man beside her was taking pleasure in her pain.
After saying all the words that had been pent up in her heart for two lifetimes, Jiang Lingyue felt much more relaxed both physically and mentally.
This kind of rebellion is indeed a heinous crime, and she will accept any consequences.
After all, he had been on the throne for so long and had never ordered the death of any concubine, so the worst that happened to her was that she had fallen out of favor.
It's ok.
It is better to be in a desperate situation and then survive, no matter how difficult it is, than to let him poke her heart again and again.
Thinking of this, the last trace of panic in Jiang Lingyue's heart disappeared, and she finally turned her gaze back.
What caught my eye was the pale face of His Majesty the Emperor.
It's that kind of white that is indescribable.
He was still the emperor who held the power of life and death and was born unattainable, but at this moment he looked extremely fragile.
It was as if something that had always been firm was overturned and completely subverted.
His face was as pale as paper, his body tilted, and he fell back onto the couch in an awkward posture, his eyes, which had always been deep and unfathomable, were dazed.
When had Jiang Lingyue ever seen this emperor who looked down upon the world look like this?
...What she said was a bit outrageous, but that was also because he kept poking her in the heart.
How come... it became like this?
She swallowed and hesitated whether to step forward to apologize, but saw the emperor suddenly raised his hands and covered his eyes tightly.
"Wrong..." His lips trembled slightly, and a faint cry of sorrow escaped from his throat, "It's all wrong..."
"!!!" Jiang Lingyue's eyes suddenly widened, and she immediately retracted her raised steps, and froze in place.
Cried?
This man, who has a calm temperament, remains calm even when angry, and is unmoved by anything, actually cries.
What did she do?
Jiang Lingyue's brain was racing, and she finally came to the conclusion that she was just telling him that she knew about Yueshe's existence.
However, her words meant that she also knew about this in her previous life.
...Is it this fact that makes it so difficult for him to accept?
But he had already done it, so why was he afraid that she would know?
What could she do if she knew? In his opinion, the bedridden Jiang Lingyue was already dead. She couldn't come back to life and scold him, right?
Jiang Lingyue pursed her lips and quietly looked at the emperor who was crying uncontrollably beside the tea table. Suddenly, a voice popped up in her mind.
'It's because he's already dead that I suddenly find out that Jiang Lingyue knew about Yueshe's existence from the beginning, which is even more unbearable.'
As for why I can’t stand it.
She remembered the question she had asked angrily just now.
"Would Your Majesty be happy to see a woman who is completely unable to conceive, longing for a child day and night?"
