The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 245 When We Meet
In five days, under the careful care of Lian Zichen, Sun Xiaoxi's body gradually recovered, her complexion was no longer pale, but completely replaced by rosy.

The spoon made a crisp sound when it touched the porcelain bowl. Lian Zichen fed the last mouthful of anti-natal medicine into her mouth, and then wiped the medicine stains on the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

"Thank you." This was what Sun Xiaoxi said to him the most these days, and Lian Zichen was a little tired of hearing it.

"Instead of saying thank you empty-handed, it's better to give me a real reward."

Sun Xiaoxi thought for a while, nodded with a smile, and readily agreed, "Okay, what do you want?"

Lian Zichen cast his eyes on her still flat belly, hooked his lips, he was not polite at all.

"This king will be the godfather of this child."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoxi frowned subconsciously, "Godfather? But you and this child are related by blood."

"You are no longer Lian Jing's concubine." Lian Zichen repeatedly and patiently reminded her.

"Even if it's not, there's still no way to erase things like blood relationship." Sun Xiaoxi pouted and refuted him in a low voice.

Lian Zichen looked at her deeply, for a long time, only to see that she lowered her head and kept avoiding his gaze, and sighed, there was really no way to argue with her, so he just left with the medicine bowl out of her room.

Seeing the back of Lian Zichen leaving, Sun Xiaoxi was completely relieved, otherwise she would not know how to answer his embarrassing questions.

Two magpies flew out of the window, and Sun Xiaoxi was overjoyed. Seeing the two magpies interacting, they rubbed against each other, and their sharp beaks collided with each other, just like a kiss between a man and a woman. Jing.

The smile on the corner of her mouth gradually disappeared. Sometimes she really hated such conflicts with herself. Now that she has already escaped, why should she still think about the palace and the people in the palace?

There was a rush of footsteps coming from her ears, Sun Xiaoxi thought it was Lian Zichen who came back, but who knew it was Ye Yan who walked in in a hurry.

She looked at her suspiciously and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Miss Xiaoxi..." Ye Yan gasped, her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, her eyes were fixed on her face that didn't know anything, she suddenly hesitated.

The prince didn't even tell her, if she told her the truth rashly, the prince will punish himself after he finds out, right?
Ye Yan's face was ugly, and Sun Xiaoxi's heart became flustered with her flustered expression, "What the hell happened?"

Over 500 lives were weighed against Lian Zichen's punishment, Ye Yan closed his eyes, and finally decided...

"Calm down and listen to me, don't get excited." Ye Yan stretched out his hand to hold her hand, "The emperor has captured all the people from Sun's residence back to Liandu, if you still don't appear in front of the emperor after five days, then Sun The more than 500 people in the house will be beheaded for public display."

This bad news broke Sun Xiaoxi's heart. Her whole heart seemed to stop beating, and her chest was suffocated. She couldn't breathe, so she could only hold her chest tightly.

How could this be?Why did Lian Jing do this? More than 500 lives, he just wanted to use this method to force her? !

"Xiaoxi, calm down!" Ye Yan supported her trembling body, "Now only you can save those people, so you must not collapse."

Tears welled up uncontrollably, Sun Xiaoxi grabbed Ye Yan's arm tightly, and wanted to cry loudly, but found that her voice was already hoarse.

When Lian Zichen came back from putting the medicine bowl away, she saw that she was having difficulty breathing, and walked quickly to her, and ruthlessly pushed Ye Yan away with one hand.

"Damn it! What did you say to her?!" Lian Zichen was furious, and hugged Sun Xiaoxi tightly with his iron arms, but his voice roared at Ye Yan.

"My lord, my subordinates really have no way to watch so many people die tragically and ignore them. The concubine has the right to know the truth..."

"Shut up for me!"

She actually told her the truth? !He actually told her everything!
Sun Xiaoxi tightened her grip on Lian Zichen's clothes, sobbing and choking, "Zichen...please...take me back...take me back..."

She can't watch so many people die because of her freedom, and she can't trample on these lives for the rest of her life.

Lian Zichen clasped the back of her head tightly, and pressed her into his arms with all his strength, a group of hills and valleys formed between his brows, and he couldn't bear it in every possible way.

"Lian Jing wouldn't do that." He didn't dare.

"He will...he will..." Lian Jing could even kill Mrs. Sun, so what is a mere few hundred lives in his eyes? !

Sun Xiaoxi grabbed his clothes, crying out of breath, sobbing that she couldn't even speak smoothly, she just begged him to take her back.

Lian Zichen didn't want her to go back, because he knew that if he let her go back this time, it would be even more difficult for him to have her in the future. Their relationship finally changed a little bit. If you want to soften your heart to yourself, how can you let all the hard work he put in on her go to waste because of a threat from Lian Jing? !
He is not reconciled!He can never let her go!

With the knife in his hand, Sun Xiaoxi was knocked unconscious by him. Ye Yan saw Lian Zichen's intention and stood up quickly.

"My lord, do you want to..."

"Get out for me!" Before Ye Yan could finish speaking, Lian Zichen had already stopped her.

If it weren't for her talking too much to tell Sun Xiaoxi these things, he wouldn't need to be cruel to her now.

Ye Yan felt sad for a while, she just wanted to help Concubine Xiao, what's wrong?
"My lord, you kept saying that you loved Concubine Xiao, but you never put yourself in her shoes. You watched those people from the Sun House being sent to the execution ground, and you watched Concubine's family members die one by one. The emperor is no different."

After saying this, Ye Yan suppressed the bitterness in his heart, turned around and left the guest room.

Ye Yan didn't know how long he had been gone, but her words were still in his ears, constantly circling in his mind.

In fact, how could he not know?It's just that I really don't want to be succeeded by Lian Jing.

He worked so hard to get her out of the palace, and a single order from him could force her to such a degree, how could he compromise?

Looking sideways at the person on the bed, she still frowned even though she had passed out.

"Don't..." Her hands and feet danced wildly, groping for the air, as if she wanted to catch something.

Lian Zichen quickly stretched out his hand to hold her hand, she finally calmed down, her lips parted slightly, and kept murmuring, "I'm sorry..."

She is a careless and heartless person, but he knows that her heart is kinder than anyone else, how can she endure others' death because of her?
Didn't she run away from Lian Jing because of his cruelty?

If he insists on detaining her here now, then what is the difference between him and Lian Jing?
An hour, two hours passed, Sun Xiaoxi opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw Lian Zichen, she tensed up all of a sudden.

She regained her defensive posture, it was impossible for Lian Zichen's heart not to be hurt.

"Xiaoxi, you know that this king will not hurt you." So, don't be so defensive against him.

"I want to go back." Sun Xiaoxi didn't want to talk nonsense to him anymore, she just wanted to go back and save those people.

"If you go back this time, you will never come out again for the rest of your life. Are you willing to pay such a price?"

"I..." Sun Xiaoxi closed her eyes. It was no longer a matter of her will. She could not exchange the lives of those people for her own happiness.

"I would."

Lian Zichen had already closed his eyes in despair, and was quiet for a while. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were full of unwillingness.

"What about my king? Have you never thought about this king?"

"Zichen, I know that you are so good to me that I feel guilty, but..." She paused and told him, "I never thought of being with you, because in my heart , even if you are not a friend, you are still my family."

Uncle Huang is Uncle Huang, the first time she saw him, she didn't regard him as an object.

"Zichen, I really... thank you very much."

Lian Zichen didn't want to hear any more, and stood up from the stool, "That's enough, if you want to go back, then go back, but I won't send you back."

As soon as the voice fell, he turned around and left.

Looking at Lian Zichen's lonely back, Sun Xiaoxi felt even more uncomfortable. She took a deep breath, now is not the time to feel guilty, she should find a way to keep the Sun family out of danger.

There are only five days left before the execution time. Early in the morning, Sun Xiaoxi asked to return to Liandu, but Lian Zichen did not show up for a long time. Just like what he said last night, he would never send her back of.

"Miss Xiaoxi, although the prince will not come out to see you off, he has already ordered the old slave to prepare a carriage for the girl."

Sun Xiaoxi forced herself to smile, and politely said thank you to the housekeeper.

Ye Yan walked out of the villa with a burden on his back, "Concubine, the prince asked me to go back to the palace with the concubine."

Sun Xiaoxi nodded knowingly, even if he didn't see her off, he still worried about her safety, so he let Ye Yan follow.

The carriage slowly drove away from the villa. Sun Xiaoxi opened the curtain and looked at the three words Richenzhuang, her pink lips slightly parted. No amount of words could be worth a thank you.

After the carriage left, Lian Zichen came out of the dark place, went to the door and looked at the carriage that was going further and further away, feeling extremely overwhelmed.

"My lord, why don't I go and bring Miss Xiaoxi back now?"

Lian Zichen shook his head, "Forget it, let her go, even if her people are forced to stay, she won't be happy."

"My lord, what are you going to do now? You haven't been to court for a month, and the emperor has already suspected you."

"Lian Jing can't find Richenzhuang. Only the most trusted people of this king can set foot here."

Four days later, the market in Liandu was full of onlookers. More than 500 people were pushed out one by one by officers and soldiers, and there was no place to kneel.

Uncharacteristically, Lian Jing took up the role of supervisor and beheader, and he didn't even go to court in the early morning, just to meet that cruel woman.

His expression was cold, and he was playing with the chopping card again and again, looking up at the sky, as if when the time came, he would be able to see bloody, terrifying and exciting scenes when he threw the chopping card away.

"Your Majesty, the time has come." Xiao Mazi looked flustered, looking at those old and young kneeling on Xingtai, he couldn't bear it in his heart.

"Really?" Lian Jing's tone was indifferent, and he turned his eyes to Sun Raowei, Sun Xiaoxi and Bai Lingyu who were kneeling in front, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "It seems that you have really raised a good daughter .”

"Stop talking nonsense! If you want to kill or cut, you do it!" Now that he has ended up today, Sun Raowei will not be wronged to survive, he only hopes that Xiaoxi can be in Richenzhuang. Have a good time.

"Okay! Since Master Sun wants to die so much, then I will help you now."

There was a slap and the sound of the chopping board falling to the ground. Lian Jing was gloomy in front of him, and his voice was cold, "Cut!"

"No...don't!" Sun Xiaoxi shouted.

The executioner raised his sword and sprayed a mouthful of shochu on it. Seeing that no one was there, a clear and rapid voice came from his ear.

"Don't chop!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Lian Jing's expression changed drastically, and he stood up from his chair abruptly, looking around at the people around him.

over there?
Sun Xiaoxi, where are you? !
