The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 271 Be cruel and be strong
Lian Zichen carried Sun Xiaoxi's daughter back to the palace. Bai and Hei were surprised when they saw her.

"My lord, aren't you looking for the concubine? This child is..."

"Don't ask so many questions, go find some nannies and trustworthy maids." As soon as the words fell, Lian Zichen picked up his steps and walked to his room.

Neither Bai nor Hei had ever seen such a thoughtful and thoughtful side of Lian Zichen, and they couldn't help feeling a little bit surprised when they saw it now.

"Yes." The two of them clasped their hands together and answered in unison, and then they split up.

Lian Zichen carried the child back to his room, looked down at the child's sleeping face, the eyes were small, the nose was small, the face was small, everything was small, this made his heart soft A few points.

Such a small child, as long as he exerts a little force, she will die fragile, "Why is your mother so cruel, and left you when you were so young?"

The child was full of sleep, and gradually opened his eyes, exchanged a glance with Lian Zichen, and then burst into tears.

Lian Zichen is a big man, let alone a child crying, even holding a child for the first time, at this moment, he is really at a loss.

Frowning and staring at that little face, he said in a somewhat bewildered tone, "Why are you crying? If you cry any more, this king will throw you out."

The child seemed to understand the words he disliked, and cried louder, as if shouting at the top of his throat.

Lian Zichen took a deep breath, held her hand and lifted her up in disgust, as if he really wanted to throw her to the ground.

As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and a newborn baby is also not afraid of things, crying and making a fuss with all its strength, it is certain that Lian Zichen will never throw her to the ground.

Sure enough, Lian Zichen had no choice but to hold her in his arms again, looked down at her dumbfounded, and made faces at her with a stiff expression from time to time.

Seeing the novel expression, the child immediately stopped crying. Seeing that she had stopped crying, Lian Zichen immediately relaxed her vigilance. She didn't see the novel expression, so she choked up and cried again.

She was crying so badly that Lian Zichen really had a headache, but luckily Bai showed up in time with the nanny. As soon as the nanny saw the baby crying, she immediately came over to take over.

"Hey, my baby must cry when I'm hungry, my lord, please give the baby to this old slave."

Looking at the pair of rough hands stretched out towards him, Lian Zichen frowned subconsciously, he didn't want to hand over this child to someone else?

"Prince?" Bai didn't understand why Lian Zichen didn't hand over the child for so long, but when Lian Zichen came back to his senses, he gave Bai a dissatisfied look, and handed it to the nanny gently and slowly.

"This is the royal family's daughter, you'd better take good care of me!" Before leaving the room, Lian Zichen didn't forget to threaten the nanny.

The nanny answered indifferently, Lian Zichen reluctantly glanced at the crying child, frowned, and then turned and left.

Bringing Bai back to the study, Lian Zichen's expression became very unkind.

"My lord, is the concubine unwilling to come back with you?" Bai asked cautiously.

"It's hard to explain this matter." Lian Zichen closed his eyes, his head was filled with Sun Xiaoxi's determined face.

She has made up her mind to go, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to persuade her to stay. If she is to stay, he can only use the method of stealing.

However, what she said was right. A woman and a peace, as a ruler, should know the trade-offs.

"My lord, what do you want to do now?"

Lian Zichen shook his head, he didn't know what to do.

As an emperor, Lian Jing was already very irrational for Sun Xiaoxi. If he, Prince Lian, was as irrational as him, then Lian Long would be finished too.

"You step back first, let me think about it."

Bai was silent for a while, cupped his hands, and exited the study.

In the palace, Hei and Bai split up to find the nanny, and Bai found it, but Hei sneaked into the palace to inform Lian Jing.

Lian Jing's bedroom was guarded by Bai Lingyu and Lian Yu in turn. Tonight, Bai Lingyu was guarding, and sneaked into the Longxuan Palace in the dark.

Lian Jing was acupointed by Bai Lingyu, and Hei went to the dragon bed to untie the acupoints for him.

"Your Majesty!" Hei bowed his hands.

After Lian Jing got his freedom, he quickly got up from the dragon bed, "How is it? Did you find Sun Xiaoxi?!"

Hei frowned, "Prince Lian found the imperial concubine, but for some reason, neither he nor Bai was willing to tell his subordinates. The two often act secretly, and the subordinates are afraid that following them casually will scare them off."

Lian Jing clenched his fists, "At a time like this, what are you afraid of?! Even if they know you are my wife, it doesn't matter, as long as my Xi'er can come back!" collar, "Go get Xiaoxi back now!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This subordinate is here today and wants to tell you one more thing."

"what?"

"The prince should have brought the princess back just now. Who knows that the concubine didn't come back, but the prince came back with a child in his arms. His subordinates suspected..."

There was a loud bang, before Hei could finish speaking, Lian Jing pushed him away and rushed outside.

He opened the door of the bedroom quickly, and Bai Lingyu, who was guarding outside, was full of astonishment.

"Your Majesty, why do you..."

"I'm going to Prince Lian's mansion! Immediately, immediately!" Lian Jing looked very anxious, as if something big was about to happen, Bai Lingyu didn't dare to stop him, and asked his servants to do it for him after he ordered The royal horse was brought out.

When the two arrived at Prince Lian's mansion, it was already dawn, and Lian Jing got off his horse and rushed in.

Lian Zichen was still coaxing the child at this moment, when he heard Lian Jing's hurried footsteps, the corners of his mouth curled up, thinking to himself: It's a bit late.

Lian Zichen didn't close the door, the door opened, Lian Jing came in at this time and saved the step of kicking the door.

"This is... what is this?" He walked towards Lian Zichen step by step, and when he saw the child in his hand, his face was full of panic.

"What does the emperor think this is?" Lian Zichen hugged the child who was full and fell asleep, and handed it to him. He asked, "Does this child look like the emperor?"

Lian Jing's eyes were red, and after a while, tears overflowed from his eyes, falling to the ground along his handsome face.

He slowly stretched out his hand and took the small piece of meat that Lian Zichen handed over, "Where is Xiaoxi?" His voice sounded very fragile, as if all his confidence could be wiped out by Lian Zichen in the blink of an eye. destroy.

"The king will not tell you."

Lian Jing's eyes were red, and his black eyes were filled with a terrifying light.

"I ask you where Sun Xiaoxi is?!" He let out a roar that frightened the little man in his arms to cry. The child yelled, tears soared like a fountain.

Lian Zichen was crazy not to accompany him, and stretched out his hand to take the child, but Lian Jing refused to give it life or death.

"This is my child!"

"You scared her!"

"Where is Sun Xiaoxi?!"

"She doesn't want to see you!"

"Where is she?!" Anger ran wildly in his chest, and anxiety filled his chest again. Lian Jing suddenly felt very at a loss, as if he had fallen into an abyss and had no way out.

His originally handsome face was covered with tears, he gritted his teeth, hugged his daughter tightly, and knelt down in front of Lian Zichen on one knee.

"Tell me where she is, please."

Seeing Lian Jing kneeling in front of him, Lian Zichen was stunned. He had never seen such a weak and helpless Lian Jing. He had never kneeled before him since he was a child, and he never showed weakness like this.

The soles of Lian Zichen's feet were numb, he didn't know what was wrong with him, when he saw Sun Xiaoxi just now, his heart was already going numb with pain, now looking at Lian Jing, what is his little pain?

"Forget it, go find her. If she doesn't want to come back with you, that's your own business." Lian Zichen told the name of Lianjing Inn.

Lian Jing thanked Lian Zichen gratefully for the first time in his life.

Lian Zichen sat on the bed blankly, completely dazed.

What you care about is never the throne. In fact, like Lian Jing, what you want is warmth...

Sun Xiaoxi's words lingered in her mind like a magic voice, unable to leave for a long time.

After Lian Jing knew the address, he carried his daughter and rushed to Sun Xiaoxi's side, while Sun Xiaoxi and the others had already left the inn and started on their way.

She leaned against the carriage with a depressed face, her eyes were dull, and she looked haggard.

"Are you still thinking about Lian Jing?" Mrs. Sun sat beside her, doing ideological work for her.

Sun Xiaoxi was silent, she didn't want to listen to her, let alone answer her.

Mrs. Sun knew that she was still repelling herself, so she curled her lips slightly, and said, "Trust me, love, it will slowly fade away with time."

Sun Xiaoxi smiled coldly, and turned to look at Mrs. Sun, "That's how you treated Dad? You choose to believe that time can dilute love, so you'd rather he think you're dead?"

Hearing Sun Xiaoxi mentioning Old Sun, Mrs. Sun's face was a little silent.

"Yes, when I die, he will give up hope. It's better than him clinging on."

"Don't say it so great, you are not such a person." After saying this, she turned her face away and did not look at her.

The woman in front of her is very scheming, she has seen through everything, she does everything for a purpose, including now that she wants to take her back to Italy.

The carriage moved extremely slowly, because Sun Xiaoxi had just given birth, so it was not suitable for bumps.

"Ma'am, it's not good. There are many soldiers from the Lianlong Kingdom coming from behind." The wayfinder outside reported to Madam Sun.

Sun Xiaoxi turned her head to look at the people chasing the carriage behind her. The person who opened the way in the middle was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe—it was Lian Jing!

"Lian Jing..." Sun Xiaoxi climbed to the window, trying to stick her head out, when Madam Sun's hand was placed on her shoulder, and Madam Sun pushed her back.

"Xiaoxi, no matter what you think now, remember those words, if you want Lian Jing to be a good emperor for the country and the people, then you must never go back with him!"

Sun Xiaoxi's eyes were wet. She understood Mrs. Sun's words and didn't answer, but just looked at her silently.

Mrs. Sun ordered people to stop the carriage, and Lian Jing chased after him after a while.

He jumped off the horse, carried his daughter to the front of the carriage, Sun Xiaoxi lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, the two looked at each other, Lian Jing had an urge to rush forward and hug her in his arms.

Sun Xiaoxi took a deep breath, meditating in her heart to be strong and ruthless, her eyes touched the baby in his hand, her heart ached, her hand subconsciously grabbed her thigh, and replaced her heartache with flesh and blood pain.

"Xi'er, where are you going?" Lian Jing walked towards her step by step, but she backed away when he came up.

"Lian Jing, I'm leaving, and I won't be coming back." Her voice was calm, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

"Why?" Lian Jing's eyes were red again, and he even showed a painful expression, "Why did you leave me this time?"

"My mother is not dead, I and Pace are sisters..." Sun Xiaoxi closed her eyes, holding back the tears in her eyes tightly, not letting them fall, not letting Lian Jing cry while watching her, "I want to apologize Li Guo is a princess."

"You are my wife!"

"I'm already tired. I don't want to be an imperial concubine anymore. My mother is right. An imperial concubine is just a concubine of the emperor. Rather than be wronged and be someone else's concubine, it is better to be a princess in a glorious manner."

"You gave birth to a little princess for me, and I will soon canonize you as a queen." Lian Jing hugged her daughter tightly and tried to approach her, but she still retreated relentlessly.

Sun Xiaoxi still shook her head, "We are fighting now, if you lose, I will become a prisoner, I don't want to be a prisoner..."

"I won't lose, I will win this battle for you." Lian Jing softly coaxed her, as long as she promised not to leave, he could even hand over his life to her.

"Look at your current appearance, there is still the majesty of the emperor, you are just an ordinary man, blinded by the so-called love, I don't need a man like a coward! You said you can win this battle, right? Okay, you go to fight, if you win, I will come back to you, if you don’t win, we will never meet again!” Sun Xiaoxi clenched her fists.

She can be cruel, for him, she can be a bad woman!

"Sun Xiaoxi, are you despising me now?"

"Yes!"

"What about the daughter?"

"She is just an oil bottle to me. I don't need her by my side. I will throw her to you. You can do whatever you like. If you don't like it, then throw her away!" Sun Xiaoxi's voice gradually trembled , She wanted to make a quick decision, and was afraid that if this dragged on for a long time, she would not be able to help but leave with him.

Sun Xiaoxi's cruelty made Lian Jing hate her at this time. He could understand why he abandoned him because he was cowardly, but daughter, how could she be so cruel to her own daughter? !
"Okay! You go! One day I will make you regret what you did today!"

"I'll wait and see? However, I believe it's impossible, because as long as you still love me, you will never be able to return to being as ruthless as before."

"Get out!" Lian Jing's hands tightened around the child's body, and the child burst into tears immediately after being pinched by him.

Hearing the cry, Sun Xiaoxi wished she could rush over immediately, gritted her teeth and endured it, she turned around and returned to the carriage without looking back.

The carriage went further and further away, but Lian Jing absolutely refused to turn back.

"emperor……"

Lian Jing hugged the child, passed Bai Lingyu and got on the horse with no expression on his face.

Bai Lingyu frowned and looked at Lian Jing, who was exuding a cold aura all over his body. He suddenly felt as if he saw the cold-blooded emperor who ordered the massacre of villages and burning people four years ago.
