The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 179 Accomplice
It was the afternoon of the second day when Sun Xiaoxi woke up. She opened her eyes dimly. As soon as she opened her eyes, she could see Lian Jing frowning and reviewing the memorial. She raised her hand and her lips whispered, wanting to call him When I came over, I found that my voice was hoarse.

Although Lian Jing was reviewing the memorial, he glanced at her from time to time from the corner of his eye, catching that she was awake, and he quickly dropped the memorial and walked towards her.

"Xi'er." He called her softly, his voice was extremely tired, and Sun Xiaoxi couldn't help but guess how long he had been sitting there taking care of her?
Lian Jing stretched out his hands to hug her, pulled the quilt to wrap her small body tightly, and she leaned peacefully on his strong chest, allowing him to serve her.

"Is there any discomfort there? I will call the imperial doctor for you."

Sun Xiaoxi shook her head, she didn't know that she had a miscarriage, it should be that this time the menstrual period reaction was more severe, although she thought so, there was still something in her mind that she couldn't figure out.

"Have you been by my side all the time?" Just because of a short menstrual period, he was by her side all the time?

Lian Jing's black eyes glowed with a deep light, he stared closely at her little face, and after a while, he raised the corner of his mouth.

"You are not feeling well, of course I want to take care of you by your side." The big hand caressed her pale face.

Sun Xiaoxi nodded, and a surge of "moving" surged in her heart.

"Lian Jing, I love you the most." With her small face close to his chest, she acted like a baby to him.

She loves him?A hint of sarcasm flashed across Lian Jing's heart. If one day she knew the truth, would she still be able to say the words of loving him so simply like now?
"Well." He didn't dare to think about the future, he just wanted to enjoy the present, her dependence on him.

"Xi'er, I love you too." Almost rarely, he didn't use "Zhen" to address himself, but called himself "I", who is equal to her.

The careful Sun Xiaoxi noticed this, and couldn't help but feel even happier.

Knock knock, there was a knock on the door, Lian Jing let go of her body slightly, and said in a cold voice, "Come in."

The pony pushed the door open and walked in, holding a tray full of bottles and jars in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician has made the decoction into pills according to your instructions." Xiao Mazi handed the tray to Lian Jing.

Lian Jing took a bottle of medicine on the tray, ordered the maid to bring water, and he fed the pill to her mouth.

"I know you don't like to drink medicine, so I asked the imperial doctor to make soup and medicine into pills, so that you won't feel uncomfortable if you take it every day to regulate your body." He said thoughtfully.

He was so attentive to her, even if Sun Xiaoxi didn't like taking medicine, she secretly swore in her heart that she would eat all of it, opened her mouth, and she swallowed his fingers together.

Touching her soft tongue, Lian Jing's body was struck by a thunderbolt, and he felt flustered, and he quickly withdrew his hand.

Sun Xiaoxi smiled slyly, thinking that his flustered appearance is cute now, he usually looks calm and composed, but today he panicked?

Seeing her smile, Lian Jing realized that he had been tricked by her, his handsome brows tightened, and he opened his mouth to warn, "Xi'er, you are not allowed to be so naughty."

She hasn't recovered yet, how can he be willing to touch her?

Sun Xiaoxi, who didn't know the truth, didn't care about his feelings, picked up the water glass and sent the medicine down, sighing.

How can the decoction be made into a medicine bowl, and the medicine is still so unpalatable?A nausea came over me.

Seeing her in such pain from taking the medicine, Lian Jing felt uncomfortable. He stroked her forehead with his big hand, and comforted her carefully, "It's okay, after taking the medicine, your body will get better. Wait until you get better." , I will take you where you want to go, okay?"

Sun Xiaoxi was puzzled, and she couldn't be blamed for being overwhelmed. Lian Jing's current appearance was really strange.

"Lian Jing." She didn't answer his question immediately, but called his name first.

Lian Jing responded to her very patiently, took her hand and put it on her mouth to kiss, and said, "Huh? What's the matter?"

"Did you do something that made me unhappy?" That's why I'm trying so hard to make up for her now.

Because she is usually sick, but like now, it is the first time that he stays by her side without even working.

A woman's sixth sense is sensitive, and Lian Jingduo hoped that she would not be so sensitive. He suppressed the undercurrent in his heart and tried his best to protect her.

"Why do you ask such a question?" He didn't answer the question, but held her tightly in his arms with an extremely insecure hand.

Xiaomazi and the maids who were waiting on the side had all retreated at some point, Sun Xiaoxi blinked her eyes, she was still in a bad mood no matter what.

"Because you are so kind to me now, as if you are ashamed of me, but you are not ashamed of me, are you?"

Lian Jing was silent again, how should he tell her about the child?Can he tell her?

After thinking for a long time, Lian Jing still decided to hide it, let alone her, he himself still can't accept this matter until now, how can he tell her?

"Do you think I am ashamed of you? Because of what? Tell me about it." To hide her but not make her suspicious, Lian Jing decided to play Tai Chi with her.

Sun Xiaoxi seemed to have expected that he would play Tai Chi with her, she chuckled lightly, and guessed in a relaxed tone.

"Lian'er, you hid it from me, so you feel guilty about me?"

Hearing her mention of Lian'er, Lian Jing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes."

The big hand caressed her black and shiny hair, smoothing it again and again, which made Sun Xiaoxi feel extremely comfortable.

"Just like what you heard Lian'er said, she may be innocent, but I sentenced her to death without careful investigation."

There was a click in Sun Xiaoxi's heart, and she was filled with guilt for a moment.

"But then I stopped her execution, unfortunately..." He paused, and looked down at her expectant little face.

"In the end, she couldn't bear the pain of prison and the pain of public opinion, so she chose to hang herself."

Sun Xiaoxi was startled, and her face turned even paler. Seeing her pale as dead face, Lian Jing couldn't help frowning, damn it, he shouldn't have told her such a thing.

"She...she committed suicide?"

Lian Jing pursed his thin lips. After a long time, he nodded and replied, "I still couldn't save her in the end."

Sun Xiaoxi's chest seemed to be blocked by something, making her suffocate uncomfortably.

She has lived a comfortable life since she was a child, and she has no way to believe that someone died because of her.

Seeing tears welling up in her eyes, Lian Jing quickly hugged her tightly, "Xi'er, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself for this."

"How could it not be my fault?" Sun Xiaoxi shook her head, "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't just catch someone and treat her as a scapegoat, then she wouldn't die."

"No, that's my problem, it's my way of doing things!" Lian Jing held her face in his hands, and swept her thumbs over her eye sockets, wiping away the tears that overflowed from her eyes. "Xi'er, don't cry, I promise you, I will bury Lian'er generously, at least, I will ensure that her relatives will live a life of prosperity and happiness, okay?"

Seeing Lian Jing's embarrassed expression, Sun Xiaoxi was also very reluctant. In this world, the last thing she wanted to see was his uncomfortable expression.

However, Lian'er's words kept circling in her mind, and she couldn't let go of her heart.

She could only hide in his broad arms, only hiding there, she felt that she was not so wrong.

She and Lian Jing are both accomplices, the accomplices who killed Lian'er, they will not have a good life in this life.

Tired of crying, Sun Xiaoxi fell asleep.

Lian Jing looked at her sleeping face, but his brows were so tightly frowned that he could kill a fly. He can fully understand what it means to be physically and mentally exhausted.

For more than 20 years, he has never lived such a useless life. He can't do anything according to his wishes, just to carefully protect her from getting hurt.

He felt that it was worth dying to protect their happiness, but the price was their children.

He doesn't know what to do now?I only hope that the truth of the matter can be revealed when she is in better health.

Lian Jing blocked the news of Sun Xiaoxi's miscarriage, except for a few court ladies and imperial physicians who took care of her, only Lian Yu and Xiao Mazi knew about it.

After a certain person went to court, Lian Zichen blocked Lian Yu's way, Lian Yu was still a little confused at the time, with a cold and defensive expression.

"Uncle, what's the matter with you?"

Lian Zichen's complexion was also not very good-looking, he did not circle around with Lian Yu or Lian Jing as before, this time he asked straightforwardly: "Sun Xiaoxi, how is she now?"

Few people knew about Sun Xiaoxi, not even herself, but Lian Zichen seemed to know a lot, which made Lian Yu feel puzzled.

Lian Yu smiled, "Uncle Huang, I really don't know what question you are asking, how is Concubine Xiao doing now, shouldn't you ask Brother Huang? Why are you blocking me?"

"Lian Yu, you are also a smart person. Since this king came to you, it means that this king knows everything." Lian Zichen also smiled, but the smile was cold and heartless.

"I'm really sorry, but my nephew really doesn't know what the emperor knows." Lian Yu suppressed his smile and replied with a serious face.

"Really?" Lian Zichen nodded.

Lian Yu didn't want to entangle with him anymore, and wanted to leave after bypassing him, but he heard him say: "This king has found a doctor who can cure Miss Qinyue's eye disease, if you are willing to cooperate with this king, then this king I am happy to help Miss Qinyue."

Sure enough, Lian Yu stopped in his tracks.

He looked back at Lian Zichen with doubts in his eyes, "Cooperation? How do you want me to cooperate with you? Join hands with you to defeat my brother?"

"Don't even think about it!"

"It seems that you don't care about Miss Qinyue that much." Lian Zichen mocked him, deliberately provoking him.

Lian Yu's face darkened, and he walked up to him in a few steps, "Lian Zichen, I warn you, don't try to use Qinyue to control me, Qinyue is Qinyue, and the emperor is the emperor. Make it clear!"

"Women and siblings can really be distinguished clearly?" Lian Zichen's smile grew wider, "In my opinion, that may not be the case."

Lian Yu walked on the verge of anger, to avoid doing anything wrong, he turned around and walked very fast.

"Lian Yu, if you decide not to cooperate with me now, then one day, you will regret your choice today!" Seeing Lian Yu's figure walking faster and faster, Lian Zichen put down his harsh words.
