The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 185 I'm Right

Time flies like a shuttle, every minute and every second, and it disappears in a flash.

Five days later, the Empress Dowager returned to the palace for offering sacrifices. Upon returning to the palace, she heard all kinds of bad news. She was instantly exhausted physically and mentally, and her appearance also became haggard.

Lian Jing had known for a long time that the Queen Mother would be angry and sad when she heard those things when she returned to the palace. However, even if he was the emperor, he would not be able to stop what had happened.

"Empress, this time it's Erchen who made a mistake. Erchen underestimated the development of the matter."

Hearing this, obvious surprise crossed the Queen Mother's face, she quietly looked at his regretful handsome face for a long time, the corner of her mouth curled up, and she nodded.

"Although the lives of the queen and Xiaoxi's children were lost, it's not worthwhile for the proud you to learn to bow your head."

Lian Jing raised his head, he never thought that the Queen Mother would say such a thing, he thought she would blame him for everything.

"Mother, don't you think that the price is too high? If I have taken care of the overall situation and if I am not so selfish, then the child of Xiaoxi and Xiaoxi can be saved, and the mother will die after eight months. You can see the emperor and grandson now."

The queen mother shook her head, "Some things cannot be forced, and the same goes for children." Although she said this, there was great regret hidden in her words.

Lian Jing lowered his head silently, his expression was still regretful.

The Empress Dowager looked at his melancholy look and thought: Even his extremely powerful son would have a hard time because of this incident, but as a mother, Xiaoxi, she would have a hard time.

Sighing, the Queen Mother suggested with a smile: "Jing'er, let it pass after this matter is over. The most important thing right now is to cherish the people in front of you. This matter will not be easy for you, and neither will Xiaoxi. Find a way to comfort her, and if it doesn't work, put down the work at hand and go out with her for a walk to relax."

"My son is planning to take Xiaoxi back to Jiangnan."

"Jiangnan?" The Queen Mother looked at Lian Jing with raised eyebrows, "You want to take Xiaoxi back to her natal home in Jiangnan?"

In the past, she begged him to take Xiaoxi home, but he was unwilling because he hated Xiaoxi's mother who was married with her from the bottom of his heart.

This time he took the initiative to say that he would go home with Xiaoxi. It seemed that he was prepared to deal with his mother-in-law.

"Okay, you can take Xiaoxi back for a while, go to the south of the Yangtze River and take a look at the scenery there, maybe her mood will slowly recover."

"I think so too." Thinking about Sun Xiaoxi, Lian Jing couldn't help but smile softly.

She missed her natal family, so he took her back, thinking about how surprised she was when she heard the news, he really wished he could go back to Longxuan Palace and tell her now.

If you go to the south of the Yangtze River, you can't leave the affairs of the court alone. It stands to reason that Prince Lian should take over these matters temporarily, but Lian Jing is worried about letting Lian Zichen intervene temporarily, so he plans to leave these Leave the matter to Lian Yu.

Because of the child's matter, Lian Jing hadn't seen Lian Yu for a long time, but seeing him now, he immediately noticed that something was wrong with him.

The originally suave, handsome and cheerful person suddenly became melancholy, as if something happened to him in the past half month that hit his self-confidence.

"Lian Yu, what's wrong with you?" Lian Jing frowned, and asked a little worriedly.

Lian Yu was in a trance, and Lian Jing called him several times before he slowly recovered.

"Huh? Brother Huang, what do you want me to do?"

Lian Jing sighed, and raised his hand to signal Xiao Mazi to lead the servants out first.

When only Lian Yu and himself were left in the imperial study room, Lian Jing walked around the desk and walked in front of Lian Yu.

"Yu, tell Brother Huang, what happened to you?"

Lian Yu really didn't want to talk about that matter, but when asked by Brother Huang, he and Brother Huang have talked about everything since they were young. At this time, he said in a soft voice: "Qin Yue left the palace and is leaving the city. She was taken away by an unknown person when she was born, and her whereabouts are still unknown."

Hearing this, Lian Yu raised his handsome eyebrows, didn't say anything to comfort him, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and asked, "Do you need me to help you find it?"

Although he doesn't like that woman Su Qinyue, but seeing how stupid Lian Yu is now, he is completely obsessed with her. No matter what Lian Yu is his imperial brother, he can't sit idly by and ignore his affairs.

Lian Yu obviously didn't think that Lian Jing would take the initiative to ask for help. At this moment, he looked at him in surprise and asked, "Brother Huang, don't you hate Qin Yue?"

"What's the use of hating her? She lives in your heart. No matter how I look at her, she is unique in your heart." It is precisely because he is in love with someone that he can understand his current mood.

If it was the past, even if he secretly sent someone to kill Su Qinyue, he would not let Lian Yu be with her.

But now, he only hopes that the lovers will finally get married.

Hearing that Lian Jing understood what he said, Lian Yu was extremely grateful, stretched out his big hand, and hugged Lian Jing like a brother, just like the emperor brother comforted him when he was a child.

"Thank you, brother."

Lian Jing also raised his hand, and patted him hard on the back as a sign of comfort.

Lian Yu temporarily handled political affairs on his behalf, so it was imperative for him and Xiaoxi to travel to the south of the Yangtze River.

Answering Long Xuandian, she just came out of his bath as big as a swimming pool, her hair was still wet, Lian Jing frowned in displeasure, took the big towel that was put aside, walked behind her and covered her head superior.

Sun Xiaoxi knew that he was coming, she turned her head to look at him, and rubbed his slightly rough palm with her delicate face.

"Why don't you dry your hair?" Lian Jing withdrew his hands and placed them on her wet head. He gently wiped the water droplets on her hair.

"Because I know you're coming back soon." Sun Xiaoxi said it as a matter of course, as if he was an emperor, coming back to help her brush her hair was something that should be done.

"Don't be like this again in the future." Lian Jing's tone was tinged with reproach.

If he doesn't come back in time to help her dry her hair, does she not plan to dry her hair?

Hearing the anger in Lian Jing's words, she turned her head to look at him and asked innocently, "You don't want to help me brush my hair?"

Lian Jing stopped the movement of his hands, narrowed his handsome eyes, stretched out his long arms, and pulled her up from the chair.

His strength was a bit heavy, and Sun Xiaoxi's small body was pulled by him to a distance of only one or two centimeters from him. If it was any closer, he would almost kiss her.

Sun Xiaoxi was nervous, "What... what do you want to do?" Do you want to hit her?
The corners of Lian Jing's mouth were raised, and a faint smile was raised, his handsome face was slightly turned sideways, he lowered his head and bit the tender flesh on her face as if punishing, Sun Xiaoxi was startled, and his face also hurt.

She pushed him away, covered her face and stepped back, and shouted at him dissatisfied: "Why did you bite my face?!"

She's not food, why would he just nibble on her? !
Her voice sounded coquettish rather than angry, Lian Jing laughed lightly, looking down at her little face that had been abused by him.

Stretching out his big hand to caress her side face, he said, "Who made you so misbehaving? So ignorant of taking care of yourself?"

The hand that caressed her small face moved to her hair that was still a little wet, he rubbed her hair, and said to her in a reproachful tone, "Don't be like this again in the future, with wet hair, you can easily get sick. "

From now on, he only wanted to see her happy face, and he didn't want to see her sickly face again.

Sun Xiaoxi knew that he cared about her, so she wasn't really angry at his punishment for such a prank.

She turned around and wrapped her arms around his waist, leaning her head against his chest, "Lian Jing, I will always obey you from now on."

How can you be so good?The corners of Lian Jing's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Xi'er is so obedient, will I reward you?" He lowered his head and kissed the top of her hair, and asked.

There was a reward, of course Sun Xiaoxi was happy and active, she nodded at him and nodded again.

Lian Jing chuckled and said, "You are homesick, I will take you back to your natal family in Jiangnan."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoxi was stunned, "Go back to her mother's house in Jiangnan?"

Seeing that Sun Xiaoxi's reaction was not the joy he imagined, Lian Jing frowned, "What's wrong with you?" He touched her face, "Are you unhappy?"

Sun Xiaoxi shook her head, "No..." After a pause, she gave him a forced smile, "I'm happy!"

How could Lian Jing not know if she was unhappy?Holding her face with big hands, she said dissatisfiedly, "Tell me if you are unhappy, I don't need you to force a smile."

Hearing what he said, she finally put away her smile.

Sighing, she grabbed his clothes, "Lian Jing, have you forgotten? I lost my memory."

The ancient natal family is not her home, so what's the use of her going back?It is impossible to really feel the warmth of home.

She said she was homesick because she wanted the modern home, but how could she tell Lian Jing that she was a person from the future?
Lian Jing thought she was worried about something, and whispered in her ear that she was a fool, and then comforted her: "Even if you lose your memory, the bond between family and love is still there. After listening to your mother, your mother is A very interesting woman, when you meet her, you may remember something."

Did she have a mother in ancient times?Sun Xiaoxi felt strange now.

In the modern age, she is a daughter who was drawn and raised by her father. Perhaps it is because she lost her mother since she was a child, so her father loves her like a jewel.

In modern times, she doesn't have a mother, perhaps, she should go to meet the mother in ancient times.

Thinking of this, Sun Xiaoxi couldn't help but smile from the bottom of her heart.

"Lian Jing, I'm going to Jiangnan!"

This kind of smile is what Lian Jing thought in his heart. He held her face in his hands, lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her lips.

"I'm ready!"
