Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Lin Yiwan calmed down in an instant. To be honest, she had very deep feelings for Xiao Ling.

The little guy lost his mother at a young age and is very dependent on her.

Although he is now an emperor and married, in her heart, he is still a child who needs care.

However, he suddenly turned his attention to the Zhan Yihou Mansion, which she could not tolerate.

She looked at Zhan Yan: "Do you have any good reason to let Zhan Miao avoid the draft? Once the imperial decree is issued, he can't take it back!"

Zhan Yan's expression grew colder. "I'll go and persuade him. If he refuses to listen, don't blame us for being unkind!"

Lin Yiwan agreed with his decision. After all, they all hoped that Xiao Ling would not act on impulse.

She didn't want to enter the palace because she would not be able to help but teach him a lesson!

Zhan Yan went to the palace to see Xiao Ling again. He said bluntly: "No matter what you plan, Zhan Miao will never participate in the selection. She is our little daughter, and we just want her to live a free life!"

Xiao Ling froze. He didn't expect Zhan Yan to come to him so soon.

The imperial edict for the selection of talents had only just been issued half a day ago!

He hesitated and said, "Uncle Wan, Miao'er also has freedom in the palace. I can indulge her!"

Zhan Yan stared at him with a frown: "Your Majesty, do you want Miao'er to be scolded by everyone? In the harem, women who don't behave themselves will be criticized!"

Xiao Ling stubbornly said, "Uncle Wan, she is a young girl of marriageable age. This cannot be changed. If I were to be lenient with her, how would I explain this to the other court officials?"

Zhan Yan remained silent, his eyes already frosty.

Xiao Ling could see that he was angry, but he didn't want to compromise.

This is his only chance to keep Zhan Miao in the palace!

He softened his tone and pleaded, "Uncle Wan, I will only keep her by my side. I can give her everything except freedom. Isn't that enough?"

Zhan Yan shook his head decisively: "Your Majesty, are you going to break Miao'er's wings? She is my eye, I will never let her suffer the slightest injustice!"

Xiao Ling now understood that this was a game. If he insisted any further, Zhan Yihou in front of him would leave and turn against him.

He can't take any risks!

We must take it step by step!

After thinking for a moment, he compromised: "The draft will not be cancelled. Since Zhan Yihou is reluctant to part with Miao'er, then we won't force her!"

Zhan Yan frowned. How could he change his mind so easily?

Or does he have other plans?

Even though he had many doubts in his heart, Zhan Yan bowed with gratitude on the surface: "Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. I will take my leave!"

Watching his departing figure, Xiao Ling murmured hoarsely, "I will not give up on Zhan Miao. I know in my heart that as long as she is here, none of you will dare to act rashly!"

Since Zhan Miao did not participate in the draft, Lin Yiwan detained her in the house and did not allow her to go out.

She felt very suffocated and always wanted to go out for a walk.

Only after the audition was over could Zhan Miao and Zhan Qingning go to attend the birthday party hosted by their little sister.

She went to the Chen family of the Minister of Revenue. She was Chen Sifang's sister, who happened to be selected as a concubine. She chose an auspicious day to enter the palace and hold her last birthday party in the mansion.

Zhan Miao and Zhan Qingning didn't have much interaction with the Chen family originally, so they planned to leave after delivering the gifts.

They had already agreed with Zhan Xuan to go hunting at a farm outside Beijing, so they took the opportunity to have a good time together before they left Beijing.

Unexpectedly, he was tripped as soon as he entered the Chen family's backyard.

There was no other reason, because Emperor Xiao Ling actually came with Queen Wang.

He called Zhan Miao to his side and asked her what she had been doing recently.

Zhan Miao was a little anxious, she really wanted to get rid of the emperor.

Just when her attention was distracted, a dark shadow suddenly appeared on the tree and pounced towards her face.

Her face suddenly changed and she screamed subconsciously to get away.

However, Xiao Ling was faster than her.

He protected her and turned his back to the shadow.

The severe pain hit him and his face turned pale.

Someone nearby screamed, "It's a snake! Where did this black snake come from? It's so scary!"

Zhan Miao was so frightened that her whole body was shaking violently. She heard Xiao Ling constantly comforting her in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, Miao'er, Brother Ling is here!"

Zhan Miao saw that he looked unhappy, so he subconsciously asked, "You, were you bitten?"

Xiao Ling wanted to say no, but blood suddenly gushed out of his nose.

Zhan Miao immediately shouted: "Hurry up, the emperor has been bitten by a poisonous snake!"

The Chen Mansion was suddenly in chaos, and Zhan Miao's plan had to be put on hold. She couldn't abandon the emperor. After all, everyone saw that the emperor was bitten by a poisonous snake while trying to save her.

She first asked the maid to deliver the message to Zhan Xuan, and then stood under the eaves waiting for news.

Suddenly, the young eunuch shouted anxiously from inside the room: "Miss Zhan, the emperor asks you to come in quickly!"

Zhan Miao walked in with her skirt lifted up, and saw Xiao Ling lying on the bed with a pale face. She said, "Miao'er, don't be afraid, Brother Ling is fine!"

Zhan Miao nodded: "I'm not afraid. If the court doctor can't cure the snake venom for you, there is still my mother. She can definitely save your life!"

Xiao Ling spoke in a gloomy voice: "Fortunately, I am standing in front of you, otherwise, if the venomous snake bites you, you will suffer again!"

Zhan Miao thought carefully before saying, "When it first appeared, it looked quite scary, but when I saw clearly that it was a venomous snake, I could actually catch it. It was you who panicked and left your back for it to bite!"

Xiao Ling's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were filled with frost.

Minister Chen, who was standing nearby, quickly spoke up: "Miss Zhan, what are you talking about? The emperor was bitten by a poisonous snake to save you. You should be grateful to him!"

Zhan Miao frowned. "I didn't say I wasn't grateful to him, but you, how come a poisonous snake suddenly appeared in the yard? Your daughter is hosting a banquet, and all the guests are noble ladies. Even ordinary families know to sweep the courtyard before guests. And a poisonous snake suddenly appeared in your Shangshu Mansion. Who are you trying to harm?"

Minister Chen turned pale with fear. He denied it hastily, "I didn't mean to harm anyone. This was just an accident. I've already ordered someone to kill the venomous snake!"

Xiao Ling came to his rescue: "Meow, don't blame him, he doesn't want to see me get bitten!"

Zhan Miao raised his eyebrows: "It depends on you. If you are willing to forgive him, then forgive him. Anyway, if anything happens to you, no one in the Chen family will escape!"

Xiao Ling suddenly started coughing violently, startling her so much that she quickly stepped forward and asked, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Xiao Ling replied weakly, "I feel a little dizzy and my breathing is not smooth. The court doctor just said that black snakes are extremely venomous. I'm afraid I'm going to suffer!"

Zhan Miao said angrily: "Look, you are in such a serious condition, but you still refuse to blame the Chen family. It's all their fault!"

Minister Chen couldn't help but retort, "Miss Zhan, didn't the emperor save you? You should be most grateful to him for taking care of him personally until he recovered!"
