The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 209

Early the next morning, Lian Jing and the others were ready to go, but Sun Xiaoxi finally decided not to go with Bai Lingyu.

The two members of the Sun family and Sun Xiaoxi saw him off together, and Sun's father told Sun Xiaoxi not to read, and see you soon anyway.

Sun Xiaoxi, with her little hands behind her back, moved hesitantly in front of Bai Lingyu. Bai Lingyu looked down at her, while she looked up at him in a tacit understanding. The two looked at each other, full of reluctance in the chest.

"When will you be here?" Bai Lingyu didn't want to talk nonsense, and when he met her eyes, he asked directly.

"Where are you going?" Sun Xiaoxi pouted and asked knowingly.

Bai Lingyu took a deep look at her, sighed, and reached out to touch her face.

"Come to Liandu and marry me." He who had always been cold was now very straightforward.

Sun Xiaoxi lowered her eyes, and an obvious smile flashed across her eyes.

"Just wait, if I miss you and want to marry you, I will naturally go to Liandu to find you."

"Are you so confident? Do you think I will wait for you?" Bai Lingyu stretched out his hand to her. Originally, he just wanted to hold her hand and say goodbye to her. She fell on him, and raised her face to cover his thin lips.

Although he was taken aback, the sweetness in his heart was indescribable.

His big hands wrapped around her slender waist, and he raised the corners of his mouth.

Letting go of his lips, she grabbed his collar and said domineeringly: "Bai Lingyu, you belong to me, Sun Xiaoxi. Even if I'm not by your side now, you can't forget me!"

Originally, Bai Lingyu wanted to make fun of her, but now that he heard her declare so seriously, he didn't want to shake her heart at all.

Nodding heavily, as if he was afraid that she would not believe it, he stretched out his hand to hold her hand, kissed the back of her hand, and said, "I'll be waiting for you in Liandu."

Sun Xiaoxi's heart seemed to be cut by a knife, her pink lips were pursed, she stretched out her hand to grab his clothes, she looked aggrieved, she couldn't bear to part with him.

On one side, you and I are reluctant to let go, and on the other side, there are parents' short stories and various instructions.

"You don't have to worry about family matters. Old Sun and I will be fine." Mrs. Sun took Sun Xiaoxi's hand, patted the back of her hand, and said.

Sun Xiaoxi nodded. She knew how strong Mrs. Sun was, so she didn't worry too much.

"Xiaoxi, you don't have to miss us too much. We will go to Liandu to see you soon after we take care of the Sun family's business." Sun Raowei smiled kindly, although he said it lightly, But his eyes sparkled.

Sun Xiaoxi smiled, "Okay, then I will wait for father and mother in Liandu."

Lian Jing put his arms around Sun Xiaoxi's shoulders and brought her into his arms.

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Xi'er." He promised.

Mrs. Sun snorted coldly, and glanced at him distrustfully. Lian Jing saw Mrs. Sun's disdainful eyes, narrowed her black eyes dangerously, and saw that Old Sun hurriedly came out to act as a peacemaker.

"With the emperor taking care of Xiaoxi, we are of course relieved."

Sun Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Lian Jing, and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go quickly, or we won't be able to find the inn when it gets dark."

Lian Jing glanced at her thoughtfully, the corners of his thin lips curled up, "Well, Xi'er is polite, it's time for us to go."

Saying this, he has pushed her into the carriage domineeringly.

Turning around to say goodbye to Mrs. Sun, Lian Jing was in high spirits.

"Mother-in-law, since Xi'er is married to me, I don't need to bother you, what do you think?"

"Don't think that everything will be fine if Xiaoxi is willing to go back with you now. If I use tricks, it will be easy to keep her." Until the moment she left, Mrs. Sun still didn't like Lian Jing.

Lian Jing suppressed the smug smile on the corner of his mouth. As the saying goes, differences of opinion do not conspire with each other. Every time he talks to Mrs. Sun, he always has this feeling.

Sun Raowei had no time to care about the grievances between Lian Jing and Mrs. Sun. At this time, he handed the snacks in his hand to Sun Xiaoxi who was sitting in the carriage, and he ordered in a hurry.

"You take these dried fruit snacks to eat on the road. Dad picks them according to your taste. Don't worry about us. We will see you and Xiaosi soon."

Sun Xiaoxi couldn't take it anymore after talking about it all day long. After taking the snacks, she repeatedly replied to Lao Sun that she already knew his instructions.

Lian Jing also got into the carriage, and Bai Lingyu was in charge of guarding the horses. Before leaving, he didn't forget to look at Sun Xiaoxi a few more times, until they got farther and farther away, he still missed the people behind him.

She is so strong, she shouldn't cry, right?

However, Bai Lingyu's guess was completely wrong. The moment the carriage left, Sun Xiaoxi's eyes were red. They didn't go far, and she burst into tears.

Mrs. Sun scolded her for being useless, while Sun Raowei comforted her little daughter and told her that they would meet soon.

In fact, Sun Xiaoxi is not the only one who is sad about parting?Even Sun Xiaoxi in the carriage lost all energy for a while, hugging the snacks that the old sun gave her, she looked dull, and she couldn't cry, but there was a suffocation in her chest, and she had nowhere to go.

Lian Jing hated seeing her like this the most, but when she cried, his heart would throb again.

With his long arms across her shoulders, he hugged her into his arms, pressed her small head onto his shoulders with his big hands, and coaxed her softly.

"My baby Xi'er, if you are unhappy, you can sleep on my shoulder, okay?"

Sun Xiaoxi chuckled, how could she fall asleep?
She shook her head, "No need, go to sleep now, let alone fall asleep tonight."

Missing is always extremely depressing.

Lian Jing sighed, perhaps because he is a man, so his thoughts will never be as delicate as hers as a woman. He still doesn't understand until now, why a daughter of her who is married out is so homesick?
Is it not enough for her to have him by her side?

She hoped that her future life would be lived with him with her father and mother?

Lian Jing couldn't help but tremble when he thought of Mrs. Sun's tough face.

"Xi'er, you think my sister-in-law won't grow up, why don't you?" He sighed lowly, and while kissing her forehead, he still teased her.

Sun Xiaoxi raised her eyes and glared at her, "I showed my truest side in front of you, don't you like it?"

Does he like to see her forcefully smile?

Lian Jing really couldn't talk to her, so he closed his mouth in the end. She leaned in his arms, the carriage swayed all the way, and she was about to fall asleep. His thin lips parted slightly, and he whispered: "No I don't like it, I hate it."

Don't say it's you crying, even if you look depressed, I can't bear it.

"Besides, you have me by your side. I treat you as well as I treat myself. You never have to worry that your future days will be unhappy."

The selfishness of human nature tells us that all people are selfish. One person can treat thousands of others badly, but he will never treat himself badly.

He regarded her as himself, another "I" in this world.

Sun Xiaoxi couldn't bear his slick tongue the most. Although she couldn't bear it, she liked to hear it very much.

Closing her eyes, Sun Xiaoxi was completely immersed in her sweet dreams at some point.

Liandu, far in the north, is destined to be restless. Ever since Lian Yu heard about Su Qinyue, he disappeared from the palace. The queen mother was so angry that she dug three feet to find him and whip his corpse.

The power in the palace was controlled by Lian Zichen. In just over a month, the ministers in the court turned their backs one after another. Those ministers who originally supported Lian Jing all turned to Lian Zichen.

Prince Lian's Mansion——

"My lord, it is really my fault that this subordinate failed to prevent Eunuch Ma from passing the news to the emperor's ears in time. Please punish me, my lord."

Lian Zichen waved his hand, a lazy and seductive smile rose from the corner of his mouth, his voice was extremely calm.

"It's okay, anyway, it's about time for Lian Jing to come back. Even for Sun Xiaoxi, it's impossible for him to stay in the south of the Yangtze River for too long. After all, it doesn't mean that Lian Yu is really relieved when he entrusts the court affairs to Lian Yu."

"But my lord, the ministers in the court have not completely surrendered to you, my lord."

Hearing this, Lian Zichen felt even more complacent, picked up the teacup in hand and sipped tea, and when he put down the teacup, his brows and eyes were full of confidence.

"They will submit sooner or later. When Lian Jing no longer gains power, they can only submit to this king obediently in order to gain a foothold in this palace."

Knocking——the door of the study room was knocked, and the darkness was exposed in front of people. He nodded to Lian Zichen, turned around and jumped out of the window.

Seeing that Hei had left completely, Lian Zichen quietly looked towards the door, and spoke in a cold voice, even showing alienation.

"Come in."

The person who pushed the door was Ye Yan. She pushed the door with her right hand and lifted a tray with her left hand. There was a bowl of stew on the tray. She walked over gracefully. She was a concubine. pose to face him.

"My lord."

Lian Zichen frowned, with a hint of impatience flashing across his eyes, he picked up the military book on the table and pretended to read it.

"What's matter?"

"This subordinate made walnut dew..." After a pause, she walked a few steps closer to him and said, "My lord doesn't like desserts, but only eats walnut dew. Do you want to try Ye Yan's craftsmanship?"

Lian Zichen's hands froze, his brows furrowed, and then he calmly put down the book of war in his hand.

He raised his eyes to look at her expectant face, it was so ridiculous, when did he give her a chance to wishful thinking?
"Ye Yan, this king has already reminded you, don't do things that are not in line with your identity."

He didn't mean that to her. He used to save her just casually. He thought she could be used, so he put her by Sun Xiaoxi's side. But now, she seemed to be his threat.

Ye Yan's complexion suddenly changed, she squinted her eyes, and she put down the walnut dew in her hand.

"My lord, Ye Yan has never dared to wishful thinking, I just hope to stay by my lord's side for the rest of my life, serving you, my lord."

"This king doesn't need your service, step back." Lian Zichen dismissed her sarcastically.

Ye Yan's face was full of disappointment, she lowered her eyes, and finally turned around and walked out.

Looking at Ye Yan's back, Sun Xiaoxi's beautiful figure suddenly flashed in his mind, his handsome eyebrows furrowed, and he spoke.

"Wait a moment!"

Ye Yan paused, turned around with the corners of his mouth raised, and saw that Lian Zichen's eyes were vacant, and his eyes were clearly projected on her body, but passed through her body, but he didn't know who he was looking at.

"Sun Xiaoxi is coming back soon, you have to go back to her."

Ye Yan suddenly realized, no wonder he lost his mind, it turned out that it was because he thought of Sun Xiaoxi.

Even if he hasn't seen each other for more than a month, his affection for Sun Xiaoxi has not diminished at all.

She often looks at him, while he often looks at the distance in a daze, and she doesn't need to think about it to know who he is thinking at that time.

"I'm going back to her, what do you want me to do?"

His cool lips curled into an extremely beautiful and emotional arc, as precious as a flash in the pan, and he said in a calm and shallow voice, "Don't do it, let her see."
