Chapter 657: Blowing the Pillow Wind
Concubine Li remembered that King Nan Xiao had promised her solemnly before that Luo Junhe's leg was poisoned by him and that it could not be cured without the dragon scale grass to detoxify.
He also firmly believed that Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe could not get the dragon scale grass.
But now, Emperor Jingyang actually told her that Luo Junhe had stood up. What was going on?
It would be a lie for Concubine Li to say she wasn't shocked.
But what was even more shocking was that Emperor Jingyang didn't believe what she said at all.
He firmly believed that Concubine Li knew the news about Luo Junhe, but did not tell him and kept it a secret for him.
Concubine Li felt like a mute, unable to express her pain.
She said: "Your Majesty, I really don't know about this matter."
"You also know that Princess Ye doesn't like me at all. Ever since Ji Yuntang married into the Ye Palace, she has been trying to sow discord between us mother and son."
"Now the relationship between me and the Night King is like fire and water. He hasn't called me mother for a long time."
As Concubine Li spoke, she actually started crying out of grievance.
Emperor Jingyang frowned. He knew about the relationship between Concubine Li and Ji Yuntang.
Neither of them likes the other, and they tend to fight as soon as they meet.
It’s just that during this period of time, Ji Yuntang rarely went into the palace, so the two of them calmed down a bit.
Seeing Concubine Li crying so sadly, Emperor Jingyang couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.
He thought that the other party served him so hard every night, but he still doubted her, and he felt a little guilty.
Emperor Jingyang stepped forward, pulled Concubine Li up, and reached out to touch her face.
There seemed to be a deep five-finger mark on Concubine Li's delicate face.
Jingyangdi asked with a distressed look on his face, "Does it hurt?"
Concubine Li turned her head away and refused to look at him out of spite.
"Your Majesty, if you don't trust me, why did you come to my Weiyang Palace?"
"Why don't you just let me live out my life here alone?"
She was angry. If Emperor Jingyang had not forced her, how could she have lost her virginity?
He has been pestering me for so long, giving me many expensive gifts and saying many seductive words to me.
Concubine Li just felt disgusted when she heard it, but she still had to cooperate with Emperor Jingyang.
Because she knew very well what kind of person Emperor Jingyang was.
If he sets his eyes on something, he will definitely find a way to get it.
If he can't get it, he will destroy it.
Before, Concubine Li was not favored in the Weiyang Palace, and Emperor Jingyang had no such thoughts about her.
But since the other party noticed her, Concubine Li knew she couldn't escape.
At first, she could still find excuses to prevent Emperor Jingyang from touching her.
But if he resisted again, it would inevitably arouse the disgust of Emperor Jingyang.
The other party hated her because she was small, but the problem was how could she help the prince to gain benefits?
Concubine Li felt that she devoted herself to Emperor Jingyang only for the sake of the overall situation.
If using her body could bring benefits to the prince, then she would definitely be willing to do so.
She felt that by doing this, she was not betraying King Nan Xiao. At least they were all doing it for the good of the prince.
Emperor Jingyang had no idea what Concubine Li was thinking. He asked a maid to bring ointment and applied it on Concubine Li's face himself.
Looking at Concubine Li's misty eyes, Emperor Jingyang sighed helplessly.
His tone also slowed down a lot, "It's not that I don't believe you, but the Night King's recovery is a very important matter."
"To put it in a broader sense, he is related to the stability of the entire Dragon Leap Army. After the Night King was paralyzed, the Dragon Leap Army refused to obey my discipline for a long time."
"I have tried many methods and finally made them submit to me. Now that the Night King is well, it is inevitable that these people will have other thoughts in their minds."
"I am afraid that he will be too powerful and overpower me."
When Emperor Jingyang said this, he looked at Concubine Li tenderly and asked, "My beloved, do you understand what I am saying?"
Of course Concubine Li could understand, because in her heart, she thought the same way.
The difference is that Luo Junhe blocked Luo Jingshen's way, so she had to help Luo Jingshen and eliminate Luo Junhe.
Now, listening to Emperor Jingyang's tone, Concubine Li can be sure that Jingyang Li cannot tolerate this son in his heart.
She had an idea in her mind, and couldn't help but have some small thoughts.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could use Emperor Jingyang to get rid of Luo Junhe?
He and Ji Yuntang went to Liangzhoukou this time without bringing anyone with them.
If something unexpected happened on the way back to Beijing, that would be normal, wouldn't it?
Thinking of this, Concubine Li buried her face in Emperor Jingyang's arms, her voice extremely gentle.
"I understand what the emperor said. Although the Night King is my son, I also have to consider the overall situation and the whole Dongchen Kingdom."
"The Night King has military talent, but he lacks the tenacity that an emperor should have. He is not as heroic and decisive as the Emperor."
"Not to mention, he is still obsessed with love. All he does all day is play with Ji Yuntang and fool around with her."
"He can't even control a woman now, how can he manage the world?"
As Concubine Li spoke, her hands roamed all over Emperor Jingyang's body.
She said softly: "I feel that my son is not even as good as a finger of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is the legitimate son of the Emperor and the Empress. He should be the only one to inherit the throne. If Luo Junhe is sensible, he should assist him well instead of coveting things that do not belong to him."
When Emperor Jingyang heard Concubine Li's words, his expression softened a lot.
Having been in the palace for so long, he has seen concubines who constantly show off and praise their children. They only hope that he can visit their sons more often and give him some care.
But Emperor Jingyang had never seen a concubine as low-key and kind as Concubine Li, who belittled her own children.
A very strange feeling arose in his heart, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
Emperor Jingyang wondered, could this be the woman who would stand in his shoes and think about him?
He instantly felt that Concubine Li was truly an interesting and wonderful person.
There are not many people in this palace who care about him so much, and Concubine Li is definitely one of them.
Emperor Jingyang said: "My beloved concubine's words are very pleasing to my heart."
"If these sons can really understand my thoughts just like you, then why should I worry so much?"
Concubine Li sneered in her heart. She knew that Emperor Jingyang was more inclined towards the prince.
Just because he was born to the queen, his status was more noble than other princes.
If not, how could she be so mean to please him?
Concubine Li rolled her eyes and said in a tender voice: "Your Majesty is right. They are your sons, so they should listen to you obediently."
"I don't know whether the Night King has small ambitions or not, but I know that Ji Yuntang's ambitions are not small."
