Beauty Scheming: Remnant King and Concubine

Chapter 43

After the father-in-law left, Qin Yunyao ordered the others to retreat as well, and asked Ji Liangruo to push him into the house, all the way to her bedroom.

She stood beside him, holding Yizhi in her hand, watching Dongyue and the others come in and out without saying a word.Dongyue and Xun'er made tea, but didn't leave the room, and stood in the corner, looking like they were waiting on them.

Qin Yunyao reached out to touch the teacup, and said to them, "Back off."

"Yes." They stepped back obediently and closed the door.

He picked up the tea and smelled it, and asked, "Can you make tea?"

"……meeting."

"Give me a cup."

Ji Liangruo was silent for a while, he just deliberately used this princess as a servant girl.She put the imperial edict in her hand on the table, turned around and took tea to make tea.

While she was making tea, he picked up the imperial edict and read it word by word.

After the tea was brewed, she handed it to him with both hands. She wanted to put it on the table, but he reached out to take it. His rough fingers brushed across her fingertips, making her tremble slightly in a daze.

"What are you going to do?" he asked.

"What do you mean?"

"This..." He pointed at the imperial edict, which happened to be on the word "children".

She bit her lip and said hoarsely: "Three hundred sticks blamed me for not being able to survive, even if I survived, I don't want to be sent to the frontier... My only relatives are Ru Taiji and Eighth Princess, I don't want to leave them... I don't even want to die in a foreign land..."

After three hundred sticks, she will be distributed to the frontier, and she will definitely die before she can go far.Even if she goes to the border safely, who knows what she will suffer as a woman in an unfamiliar place?In short, more bad luck than good luck.

"So—" He looked at her.

"My concubine doesn't know."

"do not know?"

"I don't know for the time being." She glanced at him and couldn't help laughing at herself, "My lord doesn't want to touch me now... Fortunately, I still have half a year, so it may not be possible to change my lord's opinion of me."

Her words made his hands tremble violently, the water in the teacup spilled on his hands, and trickled down his wrists onto his knees.

When she saw it, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly picked up the handkerchief to wipe it.After wiping halfway, he came to his senses, withdrew his hand suddenly, and pushed her away: "Don't touch me!"

She froze, not knowing what to do for a while.

He looked at her, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Don't try to change me!"
.
half a year...

In the dead of night, Ji Liangruo tossed and turned on the bed.

The queen mother gave a deadline of half a year. I don't know if he is sure to get rid of Qin Yunyao within half a year.Now this decree is to give her a reason to get close to him desperately, and she has no reason to retreat no matter what he says about her.Half a year later, if the queen mother didn't pull him off the horse, and he was still the prince safely, but she didn't conceive a child, wouldn't she be punished according to Yi's order?
If she was pregnant with his child while working for the queen mother... no!If Qin Yunyao loses power in half a year, the queen mother will definitely not allow his child to live, nor will the woman who is pregnant with his child live!

She can't predict the situation half a year later, and now she can only follow the Queen Mother's order.

On the day of the queen mother's birthday, in the depths of the Longfu Palace, the queen mother learned that she had made no progress, and couldn't help blaming her: "Aren't you capable of making him fall in love with you?! If a man falls in love with a woman, he will lose his greatest love." Watch out!"
