The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 232 Xi'er used to be the best at acting like a baby

"So Sun Xiaoxi, are you taking revenge on me now?!" Lian Jing raised his voice an octave, and yelled at Sun Xiaoxi, as if he was the victim.

"Yes, I'm taking revenge on you, on your mother, what do you want? Kill me too." She looked at him fearlessly, and her appearance could only be described in four words: unscrupulous.

"Kill you?" Lian Jing nodded with a sneer, "Oh, if I kill you, then I must have killed myself first!"

After saying such a sentence, Lian Jing put his hands behind his back, clenched his fists tightly, stared at her for a long time with dark and deep eyes like a spring, then let go of his fists, he walked away with long legs without saying a word Xiaoxuan Hall.

Sun Xiaoxi closed her eyes, feeling a dull pain in her heart, she had to suffer this kind of torture every day, did she owe him Lian Jing in her previous life?
After Lian Jing completely left Xiaoxuan Hall, Ye Yan dared to walk up to Sun Xiaoxi.

"Princess, are you alright?"

Sun Xiaoxi kept covering her heart with her hand, and her complexion was frighteningly pale, which made Ye Yan really worried.

"Why are you threatening the Queen Mother?"

"Huh?" Ye Yan was still pretending to be crazy.

"I ask you, why do you want to threaten the Queen Mother?!" Sun Xiaoxi's voice suddenly became severe.

Ye Yan frowned, looking like she wanted to hide it, but Sun Xiaoxi still didn't want to tell her when she saw her, and she looked impatient.

"Okay, since you don't want to talk about it, I'll ask Lian Zichen." After speaking, she walked out.

Ye Yan stretched out his hand to grab her, "The Queen Mother is the one who killed Concubine Li."

"Concubine Li?" Sun Xiaoxi turned to look at Ye Yan, "Who is Concubine Li?"

"Concubine Li is Prince Yu's concubine mother. I heard that she was once a sister to the Queen Mother."

"Since we love sisters, where did the statement that the queen mother killed Concubine Li come from?"

"Your father told the prince about this matter. The prince was half-believing at first, so he ordered me to investigate this matter. However, Concubine Li has passed away. If you want to know the truth about this matter, you can only get it from the queen mother." Let's do it."

Sun Xiaoxi suddenly realized, "That's why you wrote those notes again and again to scare the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother is really the murderer who killed Concubine Li, she must be very nervous now."

"She was so anxious to find the servant, and the servant thought, even if she didn't kill Concubine Li, she did it indirectly." Ye Yan said with a confident face.

Sun Xiaoxi agreed with her statement and added, "If even Zichen doesn't know about this matter, then Lian Jing and Lian Yu probably don't know about the Empress Dowager and Concubine Li either."

"Indeed, and if Lord Ruoyu knows about this, we can imagine how much he hates her for being a thief and mother for so many years."

Sun Xiaoxi thought for a while in silence, her voice was clear and serious.

"No, you can't let Lian Yu know about this, it's too dangerous, and you can't continue to investigate like this."

"But this is the order of the prince, and the slaves must obey."

"Lian Zichen didn't take your life seriously at all. Think about it, who is the Queen Mother? She is a smiling, duplicity person. You have no idea what she is thinking. She called me today. Go talk, tomorrow I might torture all the servants in Xiaoxuan Palace to extract confessions, I can't ignore the safety of these people!"

There was a flash of sadness in Ye Yan's eyes, she nodded, and finally raised a helpless smile.

"Imperial Concubine, the servants understand what you said, but the servants belong to the prince. If there is no prince, the slaves have already been casted several times. Now I don't know whether to be a pig or a dog. This kindness, even if it takes the life of the servant to pay back, the servant will not hesitate."

"You..." Ye Yan's smile was too stern, not so much for repaying her kindness, but rather because she fell in love with Lian Zichen, and her whole heart was controlled by her.

"All in all, you can no longer go to the Anhe Palace tonight, not for your safety, but for the servants in my Xiaoxuan Palace."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ye Yan to refute, Sun Xiaoxi left her and went back to the bedroom.

Good words are not good, ugly words are good, Sun Xiaoxi only guessed yesterday whether the Queen Mother would be so vicious that in order to find assassins, all the servants of Xiaoxuan Palace were captured and tortured to extract confessions. Early the next morning, the Queen Mother really sent people to bring those maids to Anhe Hall went.

Several maids in the court were beaten all over their bodies. In order not to let Sun Xiaoxi see it, the old women in the Anhe Palace beat their bodies without slapping their faces. Full body.

"It's simply too hateful!" Sun Xiaoxi was filled with righteous indignation.

She looked left and right to find Ye Yan, but she couldn't find anyone. She felt flustered, so Sun Xiaoxi went to ask the maids who had just returned from the beating.

"Have you seen Xiaosi?"

The maids nodded and said they saw it, and Ye Yan was also called by the Queen Mother to inquire.

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoxi was even more frightened. It's fine for the other maids to know nothing, but Ye Yan is the one in charge. If she is really interrogated, will her life be saved?
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and Sun Xiaoxi ran out of Xiaoxuan Hall holding her skirt.

The situation is critical, there is really no other way, she can only beg, the person she least wants to beg.

Lian Jing just came down and was walking towards the imperial study, when he raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the hurried figure not far away, he frowned and waited and watched.

Sun Xiaoxi also saw him, so she quickened her pace and ran in front of him, and when she finally ran in front of Lian Jing, she was so tired that she was out of breath.

Lian Jing wanted to reach out to help her, but her ruthlessness and indifference from the past few days flashed across his mind, resisting the reluctance in his heart, he put his hands behind his back, and asked her pretendingly indifferently.

"Do you have something to do?"

Sun Xiaoxi took a deep breath, and finally recovered, she reached out and grabbed his sleeve actively.

"Lian Jing, I need your help."

Lian Jing looked down at the back of her fair hand, his heart skipped a beat, and his throat even felt a little itchy.

"Come in first." He pretended to be calm with no expression on his face, held her hand behind his back, and without asking if she would like it, he directly led her into the imperial study.

Her hand touched his big warm hand, and she originally wanted to shake him off, but when she thought that she came to save someone, she told herself: If you want to save someone, you have to give someone some tofu to eat.

Lian Jing took her to the dragon chair, and sat on it straight up, but he didn't let her sit, he just held her hand and didn't want to let her go. He sat, she stood, and he asked her.

"What do you want me to do for you?"

"The Empress Dowager arrested my people from the Xiaoxuan Palace and went to the Anhe Palace for interrogation early this morning. All the maids in my palace were beaten up by her. I hope the emperor can intervene in this matter."

Lian Jing hooked her lips and let go of her hand, her expression was a bit grim.

"Why should I intervene in these matters? The affairs of the harem are managed by either the queen or the queen mother. I have always stayed out of it."

"But there is no proof, why does the Queen Mother arrest my people and lynch them!"

"Who said there is no proof? Bai Lingyu and the other guards watched the assassin escape into your palace and did not come out."

Sun Xiaoxi silenced her voice all of a sudden. In this respect, she will never be able to compete with him for integrity.

"What do you want, so you are willing to help me save people?" She lowered her tone and bowed her head to Lian Jing.

Lian Jing successfully raised the corners of his mouth, slowly turned his handsome face, raised his eyes to look at her aggrieved face, pulled her to his lap with a big hand, and looked down at her.

"I can help you save people, but I want you to treat me like before."

impossible!Sun Xiaoxi thought so in her heart, but after thinking about it again and again, she said, "How did I treat you before?"

Lian Jing smiled lightly, his mood seemed to have improved a lot, and his face was not as cold as before.

He pinched her chin, leaned down to touch hers with the tip of his nose, and the atmosphere was ambiguous and charming.

"Xi'er used to be the best at acting like a baby, as long as you act like a baby, I will have nothing to do with you."

Sun Xiaoxi blinked, and the slightly long eyelashes hit his eyelids. He was itchy, but he wanted to suppress the urge to move in his heart.

Indulging in his temptation, Sun Xiaoxi refused at first, but for the sake of Xiaosi, she had nothing to do.

She actively wrapped her arms around his neck, raised her face, and her pink lips gently touched his cold thin lips, the touch was like being swept by a feather.

For Lian Jing, it was far from enough. He grabbed the back of her head and acted passively instead of actively.

He plundered vigorously, just like the two of them when they were at their best, tenderly grinding and biting each other, and they didn't know it until the end of time.

The feeling of falling down step by step surrounds Sun Xiaoxi. After so many days of self-control, after being touched by him, everything is just a passing cloud.

How naive and ignorant she is, she still wants to escape the shackles of love.

It turned out that what trapped her was not the palace, but the love between her and Lian Jing.

After the kiss, Lian Jing was extremely satisfied, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, hugging her like a treasure in the world.

"Xi'er, forgive me?"

Sun Xiaoxi raised a bitter smile, she couldn't forgive herself, how could she forgive others?

"Sorry, I can't forgive you yet."

The big hand stroking her long hair froze suddenly, he sighed, without getting angry, he just said: "It doesn't matter, I understand, I won't force you."

If he asked her to forgive him, she would nod immediately, and he would wonder if she was using a delaying tactic.

"It doesn't matter if you never forgive me for the rest of your life, as long as you don't run away from me, I will treat you well and let me take good care of you by your side."

Sun Xiaoxi didn't answer him, but pursed her pink lips, and she leaned in his arms silently.

After a while, she raised her hand and pushed him away.

"Now, can I go to the Hall of Peace and save people?" This was her goal.

Lian Jing didn't answer her, but put his chin against the top of her hair, lowered his head to inhale the fragrance of her hair, he asked her.

"Tell me, is Concubine Li's death related to the Queen Mother?"

Sun Xiaoxi was startled, and looked up at Lian Jing, her eyes were full of doubts.

How...how would he know about this?
