Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Unexpectedly, His Majesty rejected all such memorials that very day.

His Majesty announced in front of all the civil and military officials that he would only have one empress in his life and would not take any other concubines.

This statement was, of course, met with strong opposition from the court officials.

But there was no use in opposing; His Majesty's mind was made up, and he wouldn't listen to anything anyone said.

His Majesty has just ascended the throne and is ruthless. Everyone still feels lingering fear when they think about how he dealt with his uncle from the previous dynasty and his other royal brothers, so no one dares to offer any advice.

Apart from a few stubborn old ministers who kept submitting memorials, most people quieted down and could only hope that His Majesty would change his mind later.

Aside from these ministers, everyone else was also extremely shocked that Qi Ning was about to enter the palace as empress.

Most of the young ladies from prominent families in the capital secretly envied them.

The wives of the Minister of Revenue and the Duke of Cheng, who had previously expressed interest in marrying Qi Ning, were also quite surprised.

When Cheng Mu first met Qi Ning, he fell in love with her at first sight. Unfortunately, they were not destined to be together. First, Prince Qing stole her away, and later, after Prince Qing fell from power, Qi Ning was to enter the palace as empress.

Fang Hewen, upon hearing this news, suddenly realized what was going on.

It seems that His Majesty had already developed romantic feelings for his nominal younger sister, Miss Qi, when he was still the second young master of the Marquis of Changping's mansion.

Therefore, Qi Jingyu frequently acted strangely when he was looking at Miss Qi.

The people who were most shocked and unable to accept it were not these outsiders, but Qi Jinglin and his sister Qi Yuan.

However, there was nothing that the siblings could do; they could no longer stir up any trouble.

Regardless of outside opinions, the wedding of His Majesty and Empress was not affected and preparations proceeded as planned.

The emperor and empress's wedding was scheduled for three months later.

If it weren't for the numerous rituals and essential rules and regulations required for the emperor and empress's wedding, Qi Jingyu would have felt that the preparation time was far too long.

Of course, during these three months, Qi Jingyu also visited Qi Ning at the Duke's mansion every few days.

Qi Ning felt that Qi Jingyu's back-and-forth running around was a bit of a hassle. Sometimes, even if Qi Jingyu had to attend the morning court session the next day, he would still have to come over, even if it was just to see Qi Ning for a moment before leaving.

Qi Ning couldn't help but say, "People say that the bride and groom shouldn't meet before the wedding, otherwise it's bad luck. Why did you come?"

Qi Jingyu, however, said, "I don't believe in these things."

"What if Grandmother and Father find out..."

"Therefore, they must not find out."

Qi Jingyu was just mindful of those rules; otherwise, he would have preferred to come and find Qi Ning openly and honestly.

Now that he's coming in private, he naturally can't let the old lady and Qi Congming know.

Qi Jingyu didn't care about anything auspicious or inauspicious, or about rules and regulations; he just wanted to spend more time with Qi Ning.

Qi Ning leaned against Qi Jingyu's chest and chuckled softly.

"What are you laughing at?" Qi Jingyu asked, looking down at her.

"nothing."

Qi Ning just smiled. When they were together, Qi Jingyu always kept his bottom line and never took the final step with her, which always made him uncomfortable. Yet he still insisted on coming over to suffer.

Qi Jingyu looked at the sly glint in Qi Ning's eyes, pinched her chin, and kissed her: "What mischievous thoughts are you plotting?"

"No."

Qi Ning denied it verbally, but actually deliberately nudged him with her knee.

Qi Jingyu won't do anything to her now, so if she doesn't take this opportunity to tease him, she might not have another chance.

Qi Jingyu's expression changed slightly as Qi Ning rubbed against him.

He pressed down on Qi Ning's knee: "Was that on purpose?"

"No."

"You're still saying no?"

The two of them were making a ruckus on the bed.

Qi Jingyu's hand slipped inside her undergarment, moving upwards along her slender, smooth waist.

Immediately afterwards, the ties at the back of Qi Ning's bodice came undone.

Things were getting out of control when Qi Ning realized she'd gone too far. She pleaded softly, "Second brother, I was wrong, I was wrong, please don't..."

Qi Jingyu's hands were still rummaging inside her clothes. He looked at her and said, "Weren't you afraid?"

"I……"

Qi Jingyu chuckled: "Do you want me to stop?"

"Yes." Qi Ning nodded hurriedly.

"How about you do me a favor?" Qi Jingyu coaxed patiently.

"What's the deal?"

Qi Jingyu grabbed her hand.

He said in a low voice, "How is it?"

Qi Ning realized something, turned her head away, and whispered her refusal, "No..."

Seeing that she seemed scared, Qi Jingyu let go of her hand. Actually, he didn't plan to do anything before the wedding; he just wanted to scare her because she was so audacious.

"I'll let you off this time for deliberately provoking me."

Qi Ning dared not speak out in anger, fearing what he might do next, and could only mutter a few words under his breath.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and finally the day of the Emperor and Empress's wedding arrived.

Qi Jingyu, dressed in a black dragon robe, led Qi Ning, who wore a red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, and in the presence of court officials and imperial relatives, they conducted the sacrificial ceremony to Heaven and the investiture ceremony.

Qi Jingyu handed the Empress's Phoenix Seal to Qi Ning, officially bestowing upon her the title of Empress.

After a series of elaborate ceremonies, Qi Ning was led to the bridal chamber.

Qi Jingyu gently lifted Qi Ning's red veil, and the two sat facing each other and drank the nuptial wine.

"From this day forward, Ning'er will be my Empress," Qi Jingyu said, looking at her.

Qi Ning, however, stretched out her hand towards Qi Jingyu: "Where is the imperial edict?"

Qi Jingyu was both amused and exasperated: "What's the rush? Would I lie to you?"

He took an imperial edict from a box beside him and handed it to Qi Ning.

Qi Ning opened it and saw that it was indeed a blank imperial edict with a stamp.

"How are you, satisfied?"

"Mm." Qi Ning nodded.

Qi Jingyu snatched the imperial edict from her hand and put it aside.

"May we consummate our marriage now, my Empress?"

He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Qi Ning blushed slightly and remained silent.

Qi Jingyu lowered the thick bed curtains, so that the view inside could not be seen from the outside.

All that was heard was Qi Ning's startled cry: "Your Majesty!"

Then came Qi Jingyu's voice: "Don't call me Your Majesty."

"Second brother..."
