Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces

Chapter 114: The Concubines Exchanged in the King’s Seizure of His Minister’s Wife (9)

Qi Lin frowned, his eyes cold, "It has nothing to do with her."

But to Ruan Qingqing, it seemed that Qi Lin did not refute the fact that he liked Sui Ning.

Even though she had taken the initiative to abandon the man in front of her, she still couldn't stand him transferring his affection to someone else so quickly!

This will make her feel like a loser.

At this moment, Ruan Qingqing was filled with jealousy and had unknowingly begun to hate Sui Ning.

But she didn't forget the purpose of this trip. She suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and asked in a gentle voice, "Brother Lin, you and I are husband and wife. Am I really that unbearable in your heart?"

Qi Lin turned his back to her and ignored her.

Ruan Qingqing wept bitterly and continued, "I am just a weak woman. The emperor has chosen me. How can I resist?"

"There are so many beauties in the harem, but he doesn't love me. During my time in the palace, I lived in fear every day. I thought about you all the time..."

What she said was half truth and half lie.

Ye Chen did dote on her at first and gave her the position of imperial concubine, but at the critical moment she became pregnant!

The harem was not rich in offspring, so it was a good thing for her to be pregnant with an heir. The emperor also promised that if she was pregnant with a boy, he would make him the crown prince.

But in the harem, her background was not prominent, and there were too many people coveting the position of crown prince.

Just a few days after the news of her pregnancy spread, she was attacked several times by others, and the target of the people behind the scenes was the baby in her belly.

So she needs a strong shelter!

Qi Lin immediately saw through her thoughts and sneered, "Ruan Qingqing, what makes you think I will help you?"

"Do I look like a fool who can be summoned and dismissed at will?"

Ruan Qingqing was stunned. She didn't expect Qi Lin to speak so bluntly and without giving her any face.

Her face turned pale, and she tried to explain in a panic, "Brother Lin, I..."

Qi Lin interrupted her and said in a cold tone, "If your Majesty still wants to maintain her position as the Imperial Concubine, please do not call me your servant anymore, such a close name."

"Your Majesty has already made your decision. Don't regret it. It would be too embarrassing to want it and then eat it."

After saying that, Qi Lin clutched the jade pendant in his hand, flicked his sleeves and left without looking back, leaving Ruan Qingqing standing alone in the pavilion, shaking with anger.

At the same time, Sui Ning and Qiu Shuang walked down the mountain. When they reached the mountainside, they saw a pavilion and sat down to rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, a blind fly came up to him.

"Young lady, why did you come to the Huguo Temple alone? I have my guards with me, so why don't you give me a ride?"

The man who was speaking had an greasy face and not only spoke frivolously, but also looked at Sui Ning and Qiu Shuang with lustful eyes.

The other party kept coming forward while talking, which made Sui Ning frown and feel uncomfortable all over.

Qiu Shuang stepped forward and pulled Sui Ning behind her, saying in a solemn voice, "Sir, please respect yourself and stay away from my young lady!"

"You're too kind. I just want to get to know your young lady. I have no ill intentions." The man did not retreat but advanced, pressing forward step by step.

The guards behind him were already used to it and started to watch the fun one by one.

Seeing that the visitor had ill intentions, Qiu Shuang tried to pull Sui Ning away, but was quickly stopped by the man's guards.

"Miss, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I am the legitimate son of the Minister of War. As long as you follow me, I will promise you wealth and glory, and I will never treat you unfairly!"

As he said that, the man smiled and stretched out his dirty hands towards Sui Ning.

Qiu Shuang hurried forward to stop her, shouting, "Miss, run!"

Seeing that the guards were about to attack Qiu Shuang, Sui Ning's face turned as cold as ice and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

She was about to take action when a familiar figure dropped from the sky and stood in front of her. He quickly knocked all the guards to the ground.

Qi Yanzhi looked Sui Ning up and down anxiously and asked, "Miss Ning, are you hurt anywhere?"

Sui Ning sighed helplessly. Why not come at any time?

"Qi Yanzhi, you're ruining my plan again?!" The man slowly stood up, covering his bleeding nose.

Qi Yanzhi's mind and eyes were full of Sui Ning at this moment, and he felt very unhappy about being disturbed.

"Get out of here now while I'm in a good mood, or I'll leave your dog paws behind!"

After leaving Huguo Temple, he rode his horse all the way to the farm outside Beijing, but was told that Sui Ning had been taken to Huguo Temple by her in-laws to burn incense.

Only then did he hurried back.

Who would have thought that as soon as he reached the mountainside, he saw this scene that made him want to tear his eyes out.

"You...just wait for me!"

After the people left, Qi Yanzhi checked carefully again and was relieved to see that Sui Ning was indeed not bumped or bruised.

But then he seemed to have thought of something, frowned and asked, "Miss Ning, why did you come up the mountain alone? Where is your husband?"

Huguo Temple is built on the top of a mountain, so it takes a while to walk there to burn incense.

This journey is neither long nor short, and accidents are inevitable. Therefore, people who come to burn incense usually either have guards with them or travel in groups.

"My husband and I came here together. He had something urgent to do and is still on the mountain, so Qiu Shuang and I went down the mountain first."

It would have been fine if he hadn't explained it, but as soon as he did, Qi Yanzhi's face darkened. At this moment, he wanted to tear Qi Lin apart.

In his opinion, no matter what the reason was, a woman should not be allowed to go down the mountain alone.

Thinking about it, he blurted out without any reservation, "How could this be? If I have a wife in the future, no matter what happens, I will never abandon her!"

At this moment, Qi Lin had no idea that his good second brother was trying every possible way to discredit him behind his back.

As soon as he said this, Qi Yanzhi looked at Sui Ning without blinking, nervously waiting for her reaction.

Sui Ning was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to understand the hidden meaning of Qi Yanzhi's words.

However, before she could say anything, Qiu Shuang said indignantly, "Mr. Qi's wife is truly blessed. Unlike my young lady, who has a miserable life."

She was very angry when she saw Qi Lin abandon Sui Ning to see Ruan Qingqing.

But Sui Ning acted as if nothing had happened, so she didn't know what to say.

But now that Qi Yanzhi brought up the topic, she could no longer hold back the resentment in her heart.

Qiu Shuang didn't know about the three-year divorce agreement between Sui Ning and Qi Lin, so in her opinion, Sui Ning was bullied by the wrong person.

"The master was originally going to go down the mountain with the young lady, but he saw his ex-wife on the way and left her behind."

Fortunately, Master Qi rescued her this time, otherwise she really couldn't believe what kind of humiliation her young lady would have suffered!

Upon hearing this, Qi Yanzhi felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.

He guessed that Sui Ning and her husband were not close enough, but he never imagined that the man actually had an ex-wife!

One can imagine how much injustice Sui Ning has suffered since getting married.

She is so beautiful, she shouldn't be treated like this!

Qi Yanzhi was angry and jealous at this moment.

She was jealous of him for being able to become Sui Ning's husband, but she was also angry at him for being fickle and not knowing how to cherish her after getting her.

Sui Ning, unaware of his crazy imagination, spoke up for Qi Lin, "Actually, he and I have an agreement not to interfere with each other, and we get along pretty well now."

But to Qi Yanzhi, these words sounded more like Sui Ning trying to save face for her husband.

He took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to ask, "Miss Ning, your husband treats you like this, have you ever thought about divorce?"

When he heard that the man had an ex-wife, he felt sorry for Sui Ning, but at the same time, there was a trace of disgusting joy in his heart.

Because the more despicable the person is, the greater the chance he has of stealing her away.
