The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 122

The black eyes stared at her big eyes seriously, Lian Jing's face was full of sincere requests, Sun Xiaoxi's heart tightened, she didn't know how to face him, she took a step back holding the book.

"I'm going to read a book, what are you supposed to do!" She said, turning around and walking towards the small wooden table.

Sun Xiaoxi read her little yellow book, while Lian Jing picked up a Zizhi Tongjian and sat opposite her to carefully study the way of governing the country.

At first she read with gusto and didn't notice Lian Jing's existence, but when she finished flipping through the book and looked up to see his focused and handsome face, she was startled and puzzled at the same time.

Why is he still here with her?As the emperor, isn't he very busy?
Obviously, he came back to her after reviewing all the memorials in the past, and state affairs were always more important than her.

Thinking of this, Sun Xiaoxi suddenly felt that she was complaining about him now, shaking her head angrily.

Her movements were so big that Lian Jing couldn't help noticing. He moved his eyes away from the book and landed on her face. He hooked his lips and said softly, "Read it?" The little yellow book that got up.

Sun Xiaoxi nodded, and glanced at him suspiciously. Originally, she wanted to hold back from asking, but when she met his candid black eyes, she wanted to ask again.

"Don't you have to deal with state affairs now?" Since the day she was brought back by him, he always came to look for her every morning, and sometimes stayed with her all day until she drove him back at night. Reluctantly, he returned to Longxuan Hall.

Lian Jing closed the Zi Zhi Tong Jian, propped his chin, and looked at her with burning eyes, "I want to be with you now, okay?"

A blush flashed across her face, she stood up from the seat, and said as if evading: "I'm hungry, I want to go back to eat!"

Lian Jing only felt that her requirements were really getting lower and lower. She didn't have to be too nice to him, just not bad, and she didn't have to smile at him anymore, as long as she blushed. With a flushed face, he is really very happy now.

After dinner, the sky gradually turned from dusk to black.

Lian Jing was driven back to Longxuan Palace by Sun Xiaoxi, while she stayed in the room boredly watching the sunset.

Xiaosi walked in with her clothes in her arms, seeing that she was in a daze with a bored look, she put down her clothes and walked over.

"Imperial concubine."

Hearing the voice, she looked back at Xiaosi, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Xiaosi shook his head, "I don't have anything to do, I just want to see if the injury on your face is healed, and do you still need medicine?"

This imperial concubine will turn red and purple every time she comes back from the outside, can't she be quiet for a while?

Sun Xiaoxi raised her hand to cover her cheek, the pain didn't hurt anymore, it was red, not as red as when she came back with the injury three days ago, shouldn't there be any more medicine?

"No need." She shook her head and answered Xiao Si.

"Is it ready?" Xiaosi nodded reassuringly, "The servant girl can also deal with the emperor."

Hearing Xiaosi mentioned Lian Jing, she quickly reached out and grabbed Xiaosi who turned and walked out.

Xiao Si looked back at her suspiciously, but she asked nervously and expectantly: "Why do you have to explain to Lian Jing?"

Xiaosi glanced at her silently, then laughed softly, "Princess, do you really not know or are you pretending to be ignorant? Of course, the emperor is worried about you, so he told the slave to take good care of you."

"Not only the wound on your face, but even your daily life, he will ask the servant carefully over and over again."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoxi pursed her lower lip, he was so busy, he even took care of her daily life!
Seeing her hesitant look, Xiaosi sighed and acted as a peacemaker.

"Princess, don't run out of the palace just because you are angry with the emperor. Do you know how worried the emperor was when you disappeared?"

Sun Xiaoxi didn't believe it, "How worried can you be?"

"The emperor was so worried that he sat in Xiaoxuan Hall for a whole day waiting for you to come back. He didn't go to court in the morning, and he didn't eat any food. At the end of the day, he was full of anger and worry." Xiaosi replied seriously.

Worried about her day?Sun Xiaoxi hugged her knees with both hands, still very suspicious of Xiaosi's words.

It was completely dark, and before going to sleep, Sun Xiaoxi had no sleep at all because she was too full for dinner. Carrying a small lantern, she walked out of Xiaoxuan Palace and walked around to digest food.

Is Koji's words too exaggerated?
How could Lian Jing be so worried because she didn't return to the palace that she didn't think about tea and food, and didn't even go to court in the morning?
Does he like her so much?

Obviously, she yelled at everyone before, slap everyone!She is still thinking about these things.

She denied Lian Jing's goodness in her heart, but her feet moved to the door of Yushufang unknowingly. When Sun Xiaoxi looked up and saw the words Yushufang, she realized that her steps were too far away.

The imperial study room is brightly lit, Lian Jing must be inside!

Sun Xiaoxi rolled her eyes, and if she didn't come, she would come, so she went in to see what Lian Jing was doing!
She tiptoed to the window where no guards were stationed, observed the surrounding environment, and saw that there was no one around, she gently opened the window from the outside and opened a crack. Concentrate on reviewing the thick stack of memorials on the table.

"Your Majesty, the tea you want." Xiao Mazi came over with a teacup, feeling a little sorry for the emperor being so tired now.

Lian Jing put down the brush, relaxed his shoulders, and took the teacup.

"Your Majesty, you should stop going to Xiaoxuan Hall to look for Concubine Xiao in the morning. Look at you, you have been with Concubine Xiao for a day, and you have to stay up all night to see the minister's memorial. You only rest for two or three hours a day. , how can the body take it?" Xiao Mazi persuaded with a worried face.

Putting down the teacup, Lian Jing rubbed his eyebrows wearily, "I'm fine."

That girl is still angry, if he doesn't go to plead guilty every day, when will she be willing to forgive him?

It's good that she will forgive him in the end, but the worst thing is that as soon as she turns around and pats her butt, she won't know where to slip away so that he can find him easily!

Seeing this, Sun Xiaoxi already understood many things, closed the window, and she leaned against the window silently.

No wonder he spends so much time with her in the morning, it turns out he works at night.

Such a thick stack of memorials, if he read it seriously, wouldn't he have to see it in the middle of the night?
Thinking of this, her heart felt a little uncomfortable.

Sun Xiaoxi stood at the door of the imperial study for a while, but finally did not go in to find Lian Jing. Firstly, she did not want to disturb him, and secondly, she did not know how to face him and could do nothing. Lantern went back to his Xiaoxuan Palace.

As soon as she walked away, Lian Yu came back.

Lian Jing never thought that he would come to him so late, he was a little puzzled, and asked, "Why did you enter the palace so late?"

Lian Yu looked at him with a serious face, this matter was in his mind for three days, he couldn't say anything.

"Brother Huang, you really don't intend to punish Lian Zichen for hiding the concubine?"

"Didn't you say that the maid who can testify against him hiding his concubine is dead?" Lian Jing was not interested in this matter.

"Yes, the servant girl is dead, but Sun Xiaoxi is still alive, isn't she? If you ask her where she lived for those three days, you can also convict Lian Zichen!"

"No!" Lian Jing refused with a gloomy expression.

"Brother Emperor!"

"You know why I can't agree!" He replied in an unhappy tone.

"But this is a good opportunity to convict Lian Zichen!"

"But doing that will kill Xiaoxi at the same time!" Prince Lian's uncle had a private meeting with his niece and daughter-in-law. If these words were spoken, would Sun Xiaoxi survive?
At most, Lian Zichen's title would be abolished. If he wanted to, he could even push everything to Xiaoxi, but what about Sun Xiaoxi?She has to pay the price for this incident, and now he is even glad that the meddling maid died!
"Brother Huang..." Lian Yu looked at him with a disappointed face, gritted his teeth and accused: "You have changed, and now you are completely blinded by your emotions!"

If it was the past, how could he miss any chance to convict Lian Zichen? !

"Lian Yu!" Lian Jing glared at him displeasedly, frowning to look extremely impatient, but he understood his self-blame at this moment.

He sighed and persuaded: "I know you blame yourself because of Dongmei's matter, but it is impossible for you to use this matter to incriminate Lian Zichen. If you do this, you will not only harm Xiaoxi, and will scare the snake."

Lian Yu sneered, "So for the sake of Sun Xiaoxi, you can treat this incident as if nothing happened, even if someone died because of it, you don't have to care!"

What's the difference between such an imperial brother and the cold-blooded Lian Zichen? !

"Lian Yu, why can't you calm down?" Lian Jing stood up from the dragon chair, walked around the table and walked to him.

"Who is Lian Zichen, you should already know very well by now, right? I have been on the throne for so many years, and he has been able to exert power for so many years. This is not only because of his ability, but also because of his vicious methods. We think To bring him down, there must be evidence, solid evidence, and this evidence cannot be accomplished by just one Sun Xiaoxi or one Dongmei."

His emperor's brother is too kind. When encountering such a thing, he will be unhappy and irritable. But now that he is so impatient, he is really afraid that he will be used by others one day.

Hearing this, Lian Yu finally calmed down a bit, took a deep breath, and looked at Lian Jing.

"Is it true that as long as I find those evidences, I can seek justice for Dongmei?"

Lian Jing lowered his eyes and expressed his affirmation, "Not only Dongmei, but everyone who died at the hands of Lian Zichen, you can seek justice for them one by one."

"Okay! I'm going to look for evidence that he wants to usurp the throne now!" Lian Yu's eyes changed, becoming determined and fighting, completely different from him who used to be foolish.

Lian Jing looked at his back as he turned and walked out, frowned, and couldn't help worrying.

Five hundred miles away from Liandu, there is a small village called Zixing Village. It is a simple and harmonious village, but it is very poor.

A carriage stopped at the entrance of Zixing Village. Su Qinxiu lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, and walked slowly to a small wooden house by the stream.

The door of the cabin opened, and the girl inside just walked out of the room. The girl has beautiful features, a small face, and exudes a delicate and clear aura. However, it is a pity that the girl's eyes are watery, and it is not difficult to find that her eyes have lost their spirit. .

When Su Qinxiu saw the little girl, her eyes turned red and her voice choked up.

"Qinyue."

Although Su Qinyue couldn't see, her hearing was particularly sensitive. When she listened carefully, she immediately recognized her own sister's voice.

"elder sister?"

Su Qinxiu stepped in front of her, reached out to hold her hand, "It's me, the half-year agreement has come, sister is here to see you."

Under the rising sun, Su Qinyue's face was delicate and clear, with a touching smile on the corner of her mouth, which made Su Qinxiu feel that her dirty heart could be washed away.

For her only relative in this world, her only sister, no matter how depraved she is, it doesn't matter
