The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 42 Concubine
The eldest princess left the three of them to have dinner at the princess mansion, when the three of them came out, the sky had already darkened slightly.

It was still Jingshu and the third girl who rode in the car, and Li Ling rode the horse.

Halfway through the journey, I happened to meet Li Xian riding a horse back from the yamen.After the two brothers greeted each other, they rode side by side on horses and talked.

Sitting in the car, Jing Shu vaguely heard Li Ling ask about her elder brother joining the cabinet. Because of the political affairs involved, the voices of the two brothers' conversation were extremely low, and Jing Shu didn't hear clearly.

She opened the curtain of the car slightly, and saw Li Xian wearing a dark blue official second-rank official uniform, riding on a horse talking with Li Ling with great interest, with a high-spirited attitude.

Seeing his complacent look, Jing Shu could also guess that he has been in the cabinet in all likelihood.

To be able to enter the cabinet is what civil servants have wanted all their lives.If Li Xian can make it this far, he will naturally shine on the lintel, and the entire Zhen Guo government will also be honored.

But thinking of his doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, Jing Shu felt heavy in her heart, no matter how she looked at him, she was not pleasing to her eyes.

She looked at Li Ling, he and Li Xian were riding in front, so she could only see his back.

In her previous life, she had spent five years with him. Although their relationship had always been weak, it was true that he had Qingluan in his heart, but he had never met any other woman.

Nor was she ever bothered by sharing a husband with another woman.

In this life, he treated her better than in the last life, but he didn't know if he would take a concubine in the end.After all, with his powerful position, there are quite a few people who want to win over him, and the things they want to win over are naturally nothing more than wealth and beauty.

She remembered that in her previous life, many dignitaries had sent beauties to the mansion, but fortunately Li Ling didn't touch them and dismissed them casually.

Even so, she couldn't be sure that he was a gentleman who was truly clean-spirited.

Which man does not love beauty?
They had only been together for five years in their last life, she was still young, it was normal for him to be greedy for his body, and look down on other women.Isn't Li Xian and Xu Wanning the same? If Li Xian doesn't like Xu Wanning at all, how can she have both children after four or five years in the house, but now that time has passed, wouldn't Li Xian just like the new and dislike the old?

She quietly looked at Li Ling who was walking in front. He was tall and tall, and he was as tall and straight as a pine sitting on a horse.

In terms of appearance, he is really the best.

She doesn't want to share this man with other women, and she can't bear other women's children to carve up her future child's fatherly love. Even if he still can't let Qingluan go in his heart in this life, at least his body belongs to him completely. Own.

He can't be touched by other women.

She had to find a way to win him over.

It was already dark when we returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. Li Xian got off his horse first. He threw the reins of the horse to the stable boy and said to Li Ling, "I'll go back first." Then he strode towards Xiyuan.

Looking at his brisk steps and anxious look, it doesn't look like going to Bitangyuan to coax Xu Wanning.

Sure enough, as soon as Jing Shu, Li Ling, and Zi Yun entered the inner courtyard, they saw a woman in pink standing in the corridor from afar.When she saw Li Xian, she stepped forward to greet her gracefully. Li Xian took her hand and whispered something sweet to her. Sweetly headed towards Xiyuan.

Jing Shu looked at the backs of the two with a heavy heart.

Li Ling naturally saw it too, and turned to ask Jingshu, "Who is that woman?"

Jing Shu said with a cold face: "Brother Xinna's concubine's room."

Li Ling said "Oh" without saying anything, and walked shoulder to shoulder with Jing Shu.

Jing Shu turned her head to the side, looked at Li Ling and said, "It's a gift from the palace."

Li Ling glanced at Jing Shu, but still said nothing.

Jing Shu looked at him, and asked again: "What do you think of the woman from the palace?"

Li Ling stood still, and said calmly to Ziyun who was following him, "Go back first."

Ziyun understood, glanced at the two, and left in a hurry.

The willows are slightly on the moon, and the sky is getting dark.Li Ling leaned down to look at his little wife's face, Jing Shu turned her head to the side, still with a cold face, and asked: "Why does the son look at me like this?"

Li Ling turned her body, and said with a half smile: "I want to ask you, why have you been pestering me to ask that Gong Ji?"

When asked by him like this, Jing Shu didn't know how to respond for a while.For some reason, she was suddenly afraid that Li Ling would find out that Qingluan was actually her taboo, and she was even more afraid that she would see that she was worried about his concubine.

With her head lowered, she rubbed the fine sand and gravel on the ground back and forth with her embroidered shoes, humming like a mosquito in her mouth, "It's nothing, just ask casually."

Li Ling looked down at his shy little wife, with the corners of his mouth curled up, and said: "Since there's nothing else, let's go, I have something to do when I go back." After speaking, he strode forward.

Jing Shu rolled her eyes and rolled her eyes, and followed him in small steps, but her heart was still depressed.

After walking for a while, Li Ling turned his head again, and saw his little wife following behind him not too far away, her eyes downcast, and even her palm-sized face was slumped.

With a drooping head, like a little rabbit that has been robbed of its food.

Li Ling stood still, and after she followed, Li Ling walked forward side by side with her. He didn't look at her, but just turned his head forward, and asked in a somewhat joking tone: "I see that Madam seems to have something on her mind?"

Jing Shu suddenly felt guilty, she didn't want him to see through her mind.

She didn't want to share him with other women, not because she loved him so much and couldn't do without her, but because she didn't want her status to be threatened and her future children to be wronged. She was completely thinking about herself.

snort!Don't think she cares much about him!

Jing Shu raised her head, smiled at Li Ling, and said nonchalantly, "I can have nothing on my mind, but I'm just doing the sums. I'm too busy during the day, so I don't bother to look at the books."

As she said that, as if she was afraid that Li Ling would not believe it, she added: "To be in charge of the house, I have to sort out the accounts first. This is the most important thing right now. I have to hurry up and sort out the accounts."

Li Ling gave her a fixed look, but didn't make a sound.

When we arrived at Qingfengyuan, Li Ling said: "You go back first, I have to go to the study for a while."

Jing Shu replied with a smile: "Then you go quickly, finish your work early and go to bed early."

After all, she turned around and was about to leave, but Li Ling grabbed her wrist, and Jing Shu raised her eyes and asked, "Is there anything else you can do, Master?"

Li Ling looked at his little wife's eyes as clear as water and the moon.

There was only him there.

He took her hand, looked at her and said, "If you treat me well, I will never take a concubine."

For a moment, Jing Shu wanted to cry, but she came back to her senses immediately, looked up at Li Ling and asked, "Then what if I can't treat you sincerely?"

Li Ling paused, raised his hand to stroke the broken hair on Fu Jingshu's forehead, with an unruly look on his face, and replied leisurely: "That's hard to say."

Jing Shu's almond eyes widened, she stared at him fiercely and said, "How dare you!"

Li Ling replied with a half-smile: "If you don't treat me well, and you always don't listen to my words, one day you really anger me, and I will marry seven or eight again. Then don't cry beg me."

Jing Shu raised her leg and kicked him fiercely, angrily said: "Don't say seven or eight, if you dare to take back one, I will poke twelve blood holes in your body and smash you into a sieve. "

Li Ling was kicked by Jing Shu, but he was not annoyed at all. He touched the footprints that Jing Shu had printed on his robe with his hands, and joked with a smile, "You still dare to fight with me? Do you think I will be afraid?" Is it?" As he spoke, he scratched his little wife's nose with his fingers: "Can you beat me?"

Jing Shu was so annoyed that she raised her foot to kick her again, but Li Ling grabbed her ankle lightly.

Jing Shu had one foot grabbed by him, and she landed on the ground with one foot, so she had to hold on to Li Ling's clothes danglingly to maintain her balance.

Li Ling grabbed her ankle with one hand, and firmly wrapped his arms around her waist with the other. He whispered into her ear and pretended to be annoyed, "You still dare to be rough on your husband. Go back tonight and see how I deal with you."

　Jingshu@李陵: I can not love you, but you are not allowed to take concubines.

　　Li Ling scratched his head: I don't think you don't love me?
　　Jing Shu was helpless: How can there be such a dull person!
