Concubine Jinghua

Chapter 172 Letting you enter the palace is already the greatest favor to you
The intimate embrace between Li Jianyang and Ji Chenxi not only filled Li Yan's eyes with jealousy, but also made the jealous hands of the woman beside him hold tightly together.

"Okay, stop making trouble. If you keep making trouble, your eyes will kill you." Yu Guang made Ji Chenxi notice the woman's eyes that wished she could kill herself.

"Okay, I will stay at night and slowly plunder everything that belongs to me."

Li Jianyang's deep voice mixed with endless ambiguous breath sprayed in Ji Chenxi's ears, and those explicit words made Ji Chenxi's cheeks instantly flush with a seductive blush.

Li Jianyang waved his hand, and immediately someone from the palace placed a high-quality guqin in the hall, and the woman beside Li Yan gently pulled the palace skirt and sat gracefully in front of the guqin.

The sound of Youyang's piano immediately filled everyone's ears. The gentle and rapid sound of the piano at that time seemed to bring everyone into the world that they couldn't get out of...

It wasn't until the woman raised a pair of weak and boneless hands that everyone regained consciousness and couldn't help applauding the woman.

Especially Qi Zihe, the son of the general who was sitting on the lower side, looked at the woman obsessively.

"Yan Ran is showing her ugliness." The woman leaned slightly, and said softly, in those charming eyes, there were thousands of charms shining.

Seeing that Li Jianyang's gaze had been on the woman, Ji Chenxi couldn't help twisting his waist hard.

Li Jianyang, who was in pain, looked away helplessly.Xi'er, I am just curious about the jade pendant on the woman, and have no other intentions.

Li Jianyang signaled Ji Chenxi with his eyes, but Ji Chenxi didn't pay any attention to it, instead he glanced all over the men.

"Don't look at other men." Seeing that Ji Chenxi's attention had been completely absorbed by other men, Li Jianyang couldn't help being a little displeased, and clasped Ji Chenxi's willow waist tightly with his big hands.

"Do I have it?" A sly light quickly flashed across Ji Chenxi's eyes.

"Your Majesty..." Li Jianyang didn't pay attention all the time, the woman seemed a little anxious, and her soft voice carried the unique coquettishness and charm of a woman.

"What's your name?" Until this time, Li Jianyang remembered that he didn't know the woman's name at all.

"My name is Leng Yanran, the emperor can call me Ran'er directly." The woman looked at Li Jianyang shyly.

"However?" Hearing such an intimate address, Li Jianyang's lips evoked an intriguing smile.

"Your Majesty, please keep Yanran in the capital. Yanran will do her best to take care of the Emperor and solve his problems." Leng Yanran suddenly knelt down in front of Li Jianyang and said resolutely.

Leng Yanran's sudden action surprised some ministers sitting below.

"You want to stay in my identity and have a place in my harem?" Leng Yanran's actions were beyond everyone's expectations, and Li Jianyang also cut to the chase, without dragging mud or water, just as straightforward as before.

"As long as the emperor gives Yanran a chance, Yanran promises that you won't regret it."

In Leng Yanran's charming eyes, there was a gleam of light flowing, and on that cheek with peerless beauty, she made no secret of her obsession with Li Jianyang.

"Li Yan, what do you think?"

Li Yan didn't expect that Leng Yanran would make such a sudden move, but he liked to see the picture in front of him very much.

"Although Ran'er is only my righteous sister, she is my own princess. If we can become good friends of Qin and Jin with the emperor, of course I will not have any objections. Instead, I will be happy for the emperor and Ran'er."

What Li Yan said was perfect, and there was nothing that could arouse other people's doubts.

"What if I don't want her?"

As soon as Li Jianyang's words fell, Leng Yanran quickly floated to one of the warriors, pulled out the soft knife from his waist without any effort, and put it on his neck without hesitation.

"If the emperor does not agree, then I would rather die."

Such resolute words made Li Jianyang look at Leng Yanran differently, and a calculating expression quickly crossed his handsome cheek.

"However, how could you do such a stupid thing?" Seeing Leng Yanran's actions, Li Yan quickly rushed in front of her, just about to snatch the knife from her hand, but saw Leng Yanran forcefully, slightly Blood dripped from her neck.

This action frightened Li Yan to stop quickly.

"Your Majesty, please help me."

Leng Yanran's pair of beautiful clear water pupils were filled with a touch of sadness.

"Okay, canonize Ran'er as a noble concubine, and enter the quiet palace."

Li Jianyang's Langlang voice made Leng Yanran burst into laughter immediately, she dropped the knife in her hand, walked directly in front of Li Jianyang, and rushed into his arms without hesitation.

Ji Chenxi, who was sitting beside her, had been watching all this with cold eyes, and Li Jianyang pushed Leng Yanran away without a trace.

"Come here, send Concubine Ran back to Jingyuan."

Jingyuan, hence the name Siyi, although it is the residence of the imperial concubine, it is a long way from the main hall.

Leng Yanran was taken away, and Li Yan heaved a long sigh of relief, his eyes full of deep meaning swept across Ji Chenxi's calm little face.

The banquet did not end until midnight under Li Jianyang's order, and all the ministers returned to their respective mansions under the escort of their servants.

"Your majesty, don't you want to go to Ran'er?" Seeing Li Jianyang holding Ji Chenxi's little hand and leaving the hall, Li Yan couldn't help feeling a little anxious. He knew that Leng Yanran must have been ready to wait for Li Jianyang in the palace.

"Letting her stay in the harem is already the greatest connivance to your Fengcheng. Li Yan, do you really think that I like that woman?"

What Li Jianyang said was very indifferent, without any warmth.

"Could it be... Isn't it because the emperor fell in love with Ran'er at first sight?" Hearing Li Jianyang's answer, Li Yan had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Love at first sight?" These four words made Li Jianyang laugh out loud.

"In this world, there is no woman who can make me fall in love at first sight, except Xi'er. Li Yan, you are still too condescending and indifferent."

For Leng Yanran, Li Jianyang didn't have the slightest affection, it was just a strategy for the stability and unity of the two.

"But... but I will be sad." Thinking of Leng Yanran's love for Li Jianyang at first sight, and her obsessive gaze when she looked at Li Jianyang, Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little worthless for her.

"This is her choice, and she must be able to bear all the consequences."

After saying this, Li Jianyang hugged Ji Chenxi and walked directly past Li Yan without any mercy or nostalgia.

"Xi'er..."

Li Yan's blurted call made Li Jianyang's sword eyebrows tightly knit together.

"Li Yan, Xi'er is not something you can call." Li Jianyang's voice was not very loud, but with a strong deterrent force, it clearly rang in Li Yan's ear.

Perhaps because he realized that his reaction just now was inappropriate, when he was warned so indifferently by Li Jianyang, the expression on Li Yan's face was very embarrassing.

"I know."

Li Jianyang snorted coldly, turned around and left with Ji Chenxi in his arms.

Looking at Ji Chenxi who was left in Li Jianyang's arms, Li Yan seemed to feel his heart was much emptier in an instant.

Originally wanted to find Leng Yanran, but thought that she had already been made a concubine by Li Jianyang, and it would be really inconvenient to go find her by himself. There was no other way, so Li Yan had no choice but to return to the hall that Li Jianyang had arranged for him.

Leng Yanran, who was in Jingyuan, waited for two full hours, but still did not see Li Jianyang's figure, which made her a little uneasy.

"Are you sure the emperor has booked a banquet?"

Leng Yanran anxiously asked the maid beside her.

"Returning to your empress, the emperor announced the end of the banquet two hours ago, so... so the emperor left the hall two hours ago."

The palace lady answered very carefully, she didn't know much about this newly conferred imperial concubine, so she was very apprehensive when answering.

"The emperor left with Ji Chenxi, right?" After waiting for two hours without seeing Li Jianyang, Leng Yanran already guessed that Li Jianyang would definitely be with Ji Chenxi.

"Yes...the emperor did leave with Miss Xi'er."

Leng Yanran nodded, she was not surprised by this answer, after all, when she came to the capital, Li Yan told her about Ji Chenxi and Li Jianyang.

Although Li Jianyang is not in his palace at this time, Leng Yanran firmly believes that one day, sooner or later, he will be intoxicated by his own charm. As for Ji Chenxi, he is destined to be a passerby by Li Jianyang's side.

Thinking of this, Leng Yanran's mouth curled into a charming smile.

"Undress for me."

Sleeping beautifully with his beloved woman in his arms, Li Jian felt indescribably comfortable when he got up.

Ji Chenxi, who had been loved all night, frowned slightly, and a faint light floated in her charming peach eyes.

"The emperor doesn't intend to go and see the newly conferred imperial concubine?"

Thinking of Leng Yanran, Ji Chenxi can't say whether she hates it or likes it. In short, she doesn't want to have contact with this woman. A woman who can threaten to enter the palace with a knife in the hall is definitely not an ordinary woman.

With Chu Mo's slender and clear index finger, he lightly picked Ji Chenxi's soft chin, and his fingertips with fiery breath rubbed against her soft skin provocatively.

"I said before that in my heart, there is only Xi'er. Although she has entered the palace, she has nothing to do with me."

What Li Jianyang said was so resolute that no one could see any doubts.

"I just sympathize with her. I know that even if I enter the palace, I won't be favored by the emperor, but I still insist on entering the palace. She like this will only make people feel pity."

Thinking of Leng Yanran who will spend her entire life alone in her empty boudoir, as a woman, Ji Chenxi still sympathizes with her.

"From the beginning to the end, there is only one woman I want. She is... Ji Chenxi."

After passionately kissing Ji Chenxi's tender cheeks, Li Jianyang turned over and got out of bed.

Looking at Li Jianyang's leaving back, Ji Chenxi's petal-like mouth curled into a faint smile.

After finishing her own Ji Chenxi, she simply ate her breakfast and brought the maids who served her with her.When they came to the courtyard, the scent of bamboo filled the air, causing Ji Chenxi to slightly close her cosmetic contact lenses.Greedily breathing the air with the fresh smell of bamboo.

"Miss Xi'er, the newly conferred noble concubine is here." A little court lady saw Leng Yanran walking towards the courtyard with sharp eyes, hurried to Ji Chenxi's side, and said softly.

Ji Chenxi sighed softly, what should come will still come, I just hope that this Leng Yanran will not be as stupid as other women.

Leng Yanran brought the court lady to Ji Chenxi's face, bowed gracefully, there was an indescribable charm in those winking eyes.

"Ran'er greets Sister Xi'er."

Ji Chenxi swept over Leng Yanran lightly, and suddenly she felt that the charm between Leng Yanran's brows seemed very familiar, could it be... Could it be that she had seen her before?

Ji Chenxi desperately searched for any information about Leng Yanran in her mind, but apart from what Li Jianyang told her, Leng Yanran was rescued by Li Yan and brought back to the palace, and then canonized as a princess. Apart from this little information, Ji Chenxi had no information. Find any clues related to Leng Yanran.

"Where did I meet you, didn't I?" Ji Chenxi asked softly, with a wise light shining in those big clear eyes.

There was still an elegant and noble smile on Leng Yanran's lips.

"Miss Xi'er must have misremembered. Before being rescued by the emperor and returning to the palace, Xi'er was just a busker on the street. Thanks to the emperor's rescue that day, Leng Yanran is what she is today."

Leng Yanran spoke very calmly, and her flawless words made no one suspect the slightest bit, but Ji Chenxi's intuition told her that this woman was definitely not simple.

"Xiaohong. Prepare a chair for the imperial concubine."

The maid behind her quickly moved a chair and waited for Leng Yanran to sit down.

"Is the imperial concubine looking for the emperor?" Seeing Leng Yanran's gaze sweeping towards her room from time to time, Ji Chenxi's delicate lips evoked a clear smile, that alluring smile was like the beginning of summer. The blooming lotus, under the sunlight, exudes a seductive charm.

"I made sister Xi'er laugh, but she is indeed looking for the emperor, but it seems a pity that the emperor is not in sister Xi'er's yard."

Leng Yanran didn't hide anything, but chose to admit it instead, which surprised Ji Chenxi a little. Touching Leng Yanran's big bright eyes, Ji Chenxi nodded slightly, as if she understood a lot in an instant.

After chatting with each other for a while, Leng Yanran found an excuse to leave the bamboo garden, but when she walked to the door, her charming eyes swept around the yard with ulterior motives, and finally fell to the ground. It landed on Ji Chenxi's body, although it was only a flash, but Ji Chenxi still had sharp eyes in her eyes, capturing a bloodthirsty murderous aura.

Li Jianyang, who finished the morning court, returned to the main hall, looking at the mountain of memorials, his brows were tightly knit together.

"Are these ministers all idiots? Why do I have to agree to everything? Don't they have any opinions of their own?"

Looking at these memorials, Li Jianyang said coldly.

The father-in-law beside him hurriedly came to Li Jianyang.

"In their eyes, the emperor is the sky, the dragon who rules the world, so..." Eunuch Zhou, who knew how to please the emperor, looked at Li Jianyang with a smile on his face.

Li Jianyang sighed softly. He thought that sitting on the throne would allow Xi'er to spend more time with him, but now...

There was no way, Li Jianyang knew that he must be a good emperor who loved the country and the people, so he had no choice but to sit on the dragon chair and look at the memorial in front of him resignedly.

When he opened the first memorial and read the contents inside, his eyes lit up.

"Call Xi'er over."

The servants didn't dare to delay, and quickly left the hall. With little effort, Ji Chenxi, with an elegant smile on his face, came to the hall.

"Your Majesty, what do you need from me?" Ji Chenxi raised her eyebrows, and asked Li Jianyang not far away in a soft voice.

"I miss you."

Li Jianyang hugged Ji Chenxi in his arms with a few big sword steps. Although he didn't see her for only a few hours, Li Jianyang felt a lot empty in his heart. Only when he hugged Ji Chenxi tightly in his arms did he feel To himself at this time is complete.

"Leng Yanran looked for me not long ago." Nestled in Li Jianyang's arms, Ji Chenxi told him about Leng Yanran's coming to look for her.

"I will send more dead soldiers to protect you in secret, so that you will not be harmed in the slightest. If Leng Yanran dares to hurt you, then she will wait for me to personally send her to hell."

Li Jianyang's cold voice was not gentle at all, as if it came from the depths of hell, which made Leng Yanran, who had just walked to the entrance of the main hall and wanted to bring him some snacks, hear it clearly.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Seeing Leng Yanran's suddenly pale face, the maid beside her couldn't help but asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Leng Yanran stabilized her mind, and her expression returned to its original elegance.

After being informed by the eunuch, Leng Yanran saw Li Jianyang who fell in love at first sight after a stick of incense, but Ji Chenxi was in Li Jianyang's arms.

Leng Yanran, who almost fell down, came slowly to Li Jianyang with the support of the maid beside her. Her light steps, her willow waist, and her slightly powdered, gorgeous and refined cheeks were all a rare sight. beauties.

"Then greet the emperor."

The soft and beautiful voice is mixed with the unique coquettishness of women, and the charming appearance is even more charming, but it is a pity that she is facing a man who can no longer hold other women in his heart.

"However, I heard that the emperor didn't eat anything after the morning court, so I specially made some pastries for the emperor."

Leng Yanran said quietly, those apricot eyes shining brightly were locked on Li Jianyang's body for an instant, and Ji Chenxi, who was in Li Jianyang's arms, could clearly feel that undisguised love.

Ji Chenxi knew that Li Jianyang had clearly felt Leng Yanran's love for him, but...

Seeing Li Jianyang's eyes that had been lingering on him, Ji Chenxi couldn't help but sighed softly.

"Xiaohong, quickly help the imperial concubine to sit down."

Unable to bear to watch Leng Yanran standing with cakes, Ji Chenxi ordered his maid to help Leng Yanran to a chair beside her.

"Your Majesty, if Ran'er did something wrong, please tell Ran'er, and then you will correct it. Please don't ignore me, okay?"

Looking at Leng Yanran who was about to cry, Ji Chenxi's heart was full of sympathy for her.

"Come here, take the imperial concubine back to Jingyuan."

Li Jianyang didn't want to pay attention to Leng Yanran at all, instead he caressed Ji Chenxi's tender face, his affectionate eyes were locked on her body, never leaving for a moment.

"Ran'er... Then leave."

After saying this, Leng Yanran stood up and walked directly to the door, but when she reached the door, she suddenly fell to the ground.

"Imperial concubine..." The maid beside her saw Leng Yanran fall, and hurriedly helped her up, but at this moment, her face was already pale, and she didn't seem to be awake at all.

Seeing Leng Yanran fainted, Li Jianyang frowned tightly with his sword eyebrows.

Ji Chenxi hurriedly walked in front of Leng Yanran, and lightly touched her nose.That faint breath surprised Ji Chenxi.

"She really passed out."

"Really passed out?" Li Jianyang frowned more and more tightly, he thought it was just Leng Yanran's means to attract his attention.

"Send it back to Jingyuan."

The palace lady quickly carried Leng Yanran back to Jingyuan, Li Jianyang deliberately ordered the imperial physician to treat her, but several imperial physicians all walked out of the inner room helplessly.

"How is it?" After all, she is the nominal princess of Fengcheng, Li Jianyang and Ji Chenxi have been waiting outside.

"Damn it, I really can't find any reason. The imperial concubine is still not awake." Several imperial doctors knelt down in front of Li Jianyang, with self-blame on their faces.

"Can't find the reason?" Li Jianyang raised the corners of his lips playfully.

"Let Li Yan come here."

After about one stick of incense, Li Yan rushed to Jingyuan under the leadership of two guards.

"Your Majesty, how did you come back? Why did Yanran faint suddenly?" From Li Yan's eager tone, Ji Chenxi could be sure that he was really worried about Leng Yanran.

"Suddenly passed out, the imperial doctor couldn't find any cause." Li Jianyang said lightly, he never cared too much about other women.

"Can't find the cause?" Li Yan was also a little surprised to hear such an answer, and he rushed into Leng Yanran's inner room.

He was originally just a small temptation, even if Li Jianyang had a little bit of possessiveness towards Yanran, he would prevent himself from entering Leng Yanran's bedroom, but he never thought that he would already have a stick of incense when he walked in, Li Jianyang did not It means to ask people to drive themselves out.

Sighing softly, Li Yan sat beside Leng Yanran's bed.

"However, you should know that he doesn't have the slightest feeling for you, so why do you do this? It only hurts your own body."

Li Yan whispered in Leng Yanran's ear.Really, the maid didn't pay attention, and stuffed the pill that had been hidden between her fingers into Leng Yanran's mouth. After making sure that the pill in Leng Yanran's mouth had melted, Li Yan walked out of the inner room.

"How? Is she awake?"

Seeing Li Yan walking out dejectedly, Ji Chenxi also knew that things were not as easy as he thought.

"I don't know why such a thing happened. In Fengcheng, Ran'er's body has never had any problems."

Ji Chenxi nodded, and glanced at Li Jianyang beside him.

Li Jianyang's handsome face was always filled with an intriguing smile, which made Ji Chenxi feel a little strange, could it be...Did Jian Yang discover something?
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is awake?" Just when Ji Chenxi was puzzled, the maid in the inner room ran to Li Jianyang's side with a look of surprise.

"Really awake?"

Ji Chenxi was full of joy, and hurriedly ordered the imperial physician to go in for further diagnosis and treatment for Leng Yanran.

After about a cup of tea, several imperial doctors came out with smiles on their faces.

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the imperial concubine is indeed awake, and apart from being a little weak, there is no serious problem."

Li Jianyang nodded indifferently.

"Take good care of the imperial concubine." After saying this, Li Jianyang took Ji Chenxi's hand and walked directly to the door.

"Your Majesty, you...don't you stay here to take a look at Yanran?" Seeing Li Jianyang leaving without nostalgia, Li Yan felt a little worthless for Leng Yanran.

Li Jianyang turned around, his falcon-like black pupils were filled with coldness and hostility.

"Being able to let her enter the harem is already my biggest concession. Li Yan, tell that woman not to expect too much, because she will never get anything in this life."

The cold words spit out from Li Jianyang's thin lips full of indifference.

Looking at Li Jianyang's handsome face without any tenderness, Li Yan sighed helplessly, and watched Li Jianyang leave with Ji Chenxi in his arms.

"Come out."

A few faint words overflowed from Li Yan's thin lips.

The pale Leng Yanran slowly walked out from behind the screen.

"Is it really worth it? Use the unique breath-holding technique to make yourself faint. However, you should know that the only one who will hurt you is yourself."

Looking at Leng Yanran's pale face, Li Yan couldn't imagine how much pain she had endured just now.

"No, I must persevere. Only by persevering to the end will I win the final victory. Your Majesty, didn't you tell me that?"

Leng Yanran's face was icy cold, at this moment, she no longer had the tenderness she used to have, but instead had a bit more sternness.
