The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 328 Showdown
"Xi'er, give me some more time, I believe that Prime Minister Yuan will surrender soon." Lian Jing put his arms around Sun Xiaoxi's shoulders, letting her lean into his arms comfortably, with his chin resting on the top of her head Hmph, his words are gentle.

Sun Xiaoxi smiled lowly, in fact, there is no need to be so anxious, he was nervous again.

"I believe in you." She slipped out of his arms, reached out her hand to touch his handsome face as if to take advantage, and then moved her face closer to kiss him.

Lian Jing smiled sweetly, turned her face and kissed her deeply.

The emperor and empress were so inattentive in the imperial garden, and when it was heard by Prime Minister Yuan, he was furious.

One day when the imperial court was over, he rushed to the imperial study to find Lian Jing himself. At this time, Lian Jing had almost collected the evidence in hand. There were all the witnesses and material evidence. He was not afraid that he would not be able to persuade Prime Minister Yuan.

Prime Minister Yuan strode into the imperial study with a sullen face, Xiao Mazi came out to greet him respectfully, and called him "Master Xiang" in a friendly voice. He was extremely disdainful, waved his sleeves, and walked in with great strides.

Seeing Prime Minister Yuan, the corners of Lian Jing's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a hint of confidence in his eyes.

"emperor!"

"Prime Minister Yuan."

"Your Majesty, you can just tell the old minister directly, do you intend to marry Xiangxiang?!"

"I don't seem to have promised the prime minister anything." Lian Jing always had a faint smile on his lips, but his eyes were extremely cold.

Doesn't Prime Minister Yuan know that his death is imminent?To be able to still press him so confidently until now.

"The implication is that the emperor doesn't want to accept Concubine Xiao as his queen?" This was his only trump card.

"I am the emperor, and who I want to be the successor is up to me to decide. When you ask this, Prime Minister Yuan, do you mean you want to intimidate me?" Lian Jing suppressed the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone became harsh. stand up.

Prime Minister Yuan waved his sleeves and snorted. It was obvious that he was silent if he didn't make a statement.

Lian Jing thought silently in his heart: Alright, this is really great, now I don't need to make a draft even if I threaten him.

The papers at hand were all evidence of Prime Minister Yuan's corruption and bribery. Lian Jing put his hands on it, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his voice was low and forceful, "Prime Minister Yuan, are you convicted?"

"What is the crime of the old man?!"

"Very good." Lian Jing grabbed the paper at hand and threw it in front of Prime Minister Yuan. He sneered, "Then please open your eyes and see, Prime Minister."

Prime Minister Yuan looked at the papers flying around, and reached out his hand to take one casually. He saw on it the evidence of how he bribed the minister and how the minister bribed him when he was drunk and ecstasy, and there was also the fingerprint and signature of the minister on the bottom of the paper. , he was taken aback, apparently he never thought that Lian Jing would do this.

"Your Majesty, you..."

"I think that because Prime Minister Yuan is an old hero who founded the country, I have kept your evidence of corruption and bribery until now and have not publicized it. If Prime Minister Yuan is not satisfied until now, then I will not be polite to Prime Minister Yuan in the future." Lian Jing's voice was extremely cold, with a serious face, he didn't leave any room for it.

"You...you are threatening the old man!"

"I am the emperor, if I threaten you, I will threaten you. Even if I don't use these threats to you, I will surely be able to cure you with my dragon power!" Lian Jing leaned slightly towards the dragon chair, put his hands on the armrest of the dragon chair, He looked lazy all over.

Seeing Prime Minister Yuan's lost prestige and dejected look on his face, he twitched the corner of his mouth, and finally added: "I am not someone who will kill everything, as long as Prime Minister Yuan agrees to support me in accepting Concubine Xiao as queen, then I will use the evidence to prove it." It will be destroyed, and Prime Minister Yuan is still the hero who founded the country, the minister of the court, and I will still respect you as before."

How could it be like before?Prime Minister Yuan sneered in his heart.

Even if Lian Jing had the right time to attack him, he might force him to step down from the prime minister's position after Sun Xiaoxi's letter.

"Your Majesty, is that why you don't like Xiangxiang so much?" Changing another strategy, Prime Minister Yuan began to be emotional.

"Six years ago, if the old minister hadn't stopped Xiangxiang from entering the palace, Xiangxiang and the emperor would have been a couple."

"Prime Minister Yuan would also say that it happened six years ago, and now I only have Concubine Xiao." How could Lian Jing not know what Prime Minister Yuan was planning?He just wanted to see what else he had to say.

"Your majesty, you may not know that Xiangxiang has not eaten for a few days because of you. Even if the emperor has no love for Xiangxiang, he still has a sense of righteousness, right? In terms of this kind of righteousness, can the emperor not accept her as his concubine?" , give her a wish?" Mentioning the little granddaughter, Yuan Chengxiang showed an inexplicable kindness on his face.

"Why didn't Yuan Yu want to let Xiangxiang enter the palace at the beginning? Aren't you afraid that she will suffer? You were afraid of me being ruthless before, but now I only love Concubine Xiao, and she will suffer even more. You still insist on it." Let her enter the palace?" Lian Jing smiled lightly and shook his head.

Perhaps Yuan Chengxiang is right, he has always had a sense of loyalty to Xiangxiang, no matter whose granddaughter she is, in his heart, she is his little sister, he took care of her when she was young, and when she grows up, he still loves her. He will take care of her like an elder brother, but it is absolutely impossible for him to accept her as his concubine.

"Xiangxiang has a deep affection for you. I have worked hard since I was a child to hope that one day I can enter the palace as a concubine and queen. The old minister begs the emperor to consider it. There are three thousand beauties in the harem, and there are not many more Xiangxiang." In court, he would not bow his head like this, but at this moment, he is eager for his granddaughter.

Lian Jing cast his eyes into the distance with a blank face. Prime Minister Yuan thought he was moved, so he tried his best to persuade him: "The old minister can abdicate to make up for the virtuous, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't become the prime minister. I just beg the emperor to give Xiangxiang a wish."

Lian Jing withdrew his gaze, his black eyes were cold, he shook his head lightly, for some things, he insisted enough.

"Prime Minister Yuan, I will not agree to your request."

It would be fine if Xiangxiang didn't have a deep affection for him, but knowing that she has such affection for him, how could he harm her life?

"Your Majesty, you..." Prime Minister Yuan finally got angry, he waved his sleeves, and his chest heaved up and down.

"What I want to talk about today, Prime Minister Yuan said it, and I have made it clear. There is nothing to do, so please go back." Lian Jing put on a handsome face. Regarding Yuan Chengxiang's old face, he didn't give face, and he didn't want to Give him face again.

The negotiation failed, and Prime Minister Yuan could do nothing but return home in a rage.

When having lunch at noon, Sun Xiaoxi found that Lian Jing would sometimes lose his mind about things, she put a side dish into his bowl, he looked down at her, she smiled slightly.

"Our majesty, who manages so many things every day, can't even worry about eating?" She teased.

Lian Jing raised the corners of his mouth slightly, he stretched out his hand to touch her pink face, and shouted dotingly: "Little fool."

Sun Xiaoxi raised her hand to hold his big hand and held it tightly. She looked at him suspiciously.

"Aren't you going to tell me what happened?"

Lian Jing hooked his lips, "You want to know?"

"I want to know everything that bothers you." She suddenly transformed into a caring little padded jacket.

Lian Jing narrowed his eyes and looked at him thoughtfully.

"Okay, since you want to know, I'll tell you."

Sighing deeply, she looked at him seriously, and said to him, "I have a showdown with Prime Minister Yuan today."

Sun Xiaoxi was taken aback for a moment, her big eyes rolled round, "What happened?"

"Prime Minister Yuan has suffered a crushing defeat, yet he wants to make love to me."

There are not many people who can bother Lian Jing, except for Yuan Xiangxiang, she really doesn't know who else there is.

Sun Xiaoxi picked up the white rice at once, sighed, and asked, "What's wrong with Yuan Xiangxiang?"

"That girl in Xiangxiang is determined to enter the palace and become my concubine, but Prime Minister Yuan actually said that he is not willing to be prime minister because of her."

Sun Xiaoxi pursed her lips, but understood why Lian Jing was so worried.

"Then what do you want to do?"

Sun Xiaoxi's tone sounded relaxed, but Lian Jing knew that she must be jealous again, with a slight smile, he held her hand.

"What else can I do? Do you want me to marry her? Are you happy?"

"That's not what I mean, it's just..." After a pause, Sun Xiaoxi continued, "I'm asking if you want to visit her and care about her or something."

Hearing this, Lian Jing's laughter became even more reckless, he stretched out his hand to pinch her little face, and his handsome face kept moving closer to her.

Sun Xiaoxi pushed him away angrily, he was in a good mood at the moment, no matter how cute his little princess was.

"Little fool, I haven't had time to care about you yet. How can I care about other women?"

Sun Xiaoxi couldn't bear his sweet talk the most, she pursed her lips and smiled, and after a while, she put on a straight face again.

"I'm telling you seriously. If you can't let go of Xiangxiang, then you should go and see her. Little girls are the most likely to miss her." How restless.

Lian Jing suppressed her smile, but still shook her head, "I can't pamper her, the more kind I am to her, the more she can't let go of me. In the end, it's not good for her or me."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoxi felt that what Lian Jing said was reasonable, so she didn't persuade him any more, and said with a smile that she would go outing with Jingxi the day after tomorrow.

"Are you going to take her out again? Is your injury healed?" Lian Jing asked worriedly.

"It's been done a long time ago, you just like to worry about it, don't worry, don't worry, I will go to Zichen's house to be with Sister Sara."

Hearing that Sara was there, Lian Jing was relieved a lot. He picked up the chopsticks and served her dishes, and introduced them to her. They were all swallowed.
