081 The Emperor's Responsibilities
"A woman in the harem can only live completely dependent on the emperor, but she cannot give her whole heart to him."
Lin Jingyu looked up in shock.
Could such rebellious words come from her mouth? Such a woman in a high position...
"You did quite well in this regard." Apparently, the Queen Mother was lost in her own thoughts and did not notice anything unusual about him, so she continued the topic.
"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Emperor likes you to the core." When she said this, a vague light appeared in the Queen Mother's wise and sharp eyes, but she did not want to show it. She lowered her eyes slightly, hiding
Get rid of excess emotions.
Mentioning that inexplicable soul body, Lin Jingyu was a little upset. That thing - he was indeed very accommodating to himself. He was a bit accommodating and tolerant, and only occasionally lost his temper and made some small complaints. He liked to watch himself and paid attention to him all the time.
Watching his every move made him feel - very annoyed.
Yes. Very boring.
He had the feeling of being stared at closely and almost suffocating. It was different from the feeling of the courtiers staring closely at him while handling government affairs. This one had completely invaded his life and his private domain. It is estimated that he will now
There was no part of his body that the strange guy didn't understand.
When I think about this level, for some reason, the scene suddenly comes to my mind of a dragon body soaking in the pool one day while bathing and curiously studying the dragon roots...
A blush quickly appeared on Lin Jingyu's face. That bastard! He actually dared to play with a dragon's body! That damn——
"But, you haven't completely taken the Emperor into your heart, have you?" The Queen Mother's voice turned cold in vain, and Lin Jingyu suddenly came back to his senses.
Meeting the Queen Mother's cold eyes, he opened his mouth without retorting.
Everyone can see that his attitude towards the soul hiding in the dragon body is really bad. Although only a few people know about this matter, there is no guarantee that it will not be speculated and rumored by others. Because, they really have no
He had acted too intimately in front of others. Only Qin Murong and Mandrill could see how good he was to him. However, he was treating 'him'...
Lin Jingyu suddenly felt a headache. It didn't matter that the other party was a woman. Although the soul claimed to be a woman, she was occupying his own dragon body! He faced his face every day and taught him how to behave intimately.
!Every time I get close, something feels wrong all over my body. Should I let him cuddle with my body? I feel sick just thinking about it...
Probably because the expression of disgust on his face was too obvious, the Queen Mother's face also became unpleasant.
She snorted coldly, let go of the little hand she had been holding, picked up the teacup handed to her by Aunt Rui, opened the lid of the bowl, and gently blew the hot air rising from the water. Half-paying, she said nothing, and just concentrated on drinking tea.
Lin Jingyu really couldn't figure out the woman's thoughts, so he had to sit obediently, thinking about how to let the princess of Beiyuan Kingdom enter the palace and break the existing pattern of the harem. However, the Queen Mother spoke up again at this time.
"The Ai family remembers that the emperor originally liked your young lady."
Lin Jingyu was stunned for a moment, and after trying his best to remember, he figured out that the other party was referring to Yunyue, his lover who had passed away before they even got married.
His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and something seemed to be stuck in his chest, making him unable to breathe smoothly.
...How long has it been since I didn't think of that sweet smile? That gentle and pleasant woman, the considerate woman, the clear and charming woman... I don't know when it started, but I never dreamed of her again at night.
However, he obviously loves so deeply and loves so painfully. In order to marry her soul into the palace, he ignored the objections of the courtiers and the queen mother. He was not even afraid of becoming the laughing stock of the whole world, nor was he afraid of offending the Liu family and causing trouble.
Everyone in the city knew it. But how could it be possible—how could she be forgotten so easily?...
"It seems that you also know a lot about the emperor and your young lady."
Seeing the other party's suddenly pale face, she thought she had touched on her pain points. The Queen Mother felt a little happy in her heart and her tone softened a little.
"Jingyue, it's not that my mother looks down on you. But the family backgrounds of your empresses are all before your eyes. How can you, an ordinary girl, compete with others? Even if General Chu recognized you as his adopted daughter, it was only because the emperor favored you.
Looking at you, you have a certain role for the Chu family to restrain the daughters of the Liu family and General Wen in the harem, but that is just a stopgap measure. If one day you lose power, think about it, what will happen to the Chu family's reckless husband?
Will you take care of you?" After a pause, seeing that the other party had no intention of answering, she put the tea cup aside, took Lin Jingyu's little hand again, patted it gently, and said seriously:
"It is a great honor for a woman to be pregnant with an heir for the emperor. Originally, based on your origin, you are not worthy of having the emperor's bloodline. So, don't take yourself too seriously. This person who pretends to be noble should have some
Personally, remember not to embarrass the Emperor, and don't let others see anything. Being disrespectful to the Emperor is a death penalty." As he spoke, he gave 'her' a sidelong glance, full of warning.
Lin Jingyu almost jumped out of anger.
He didn't want others to manipulate or instigate his concubines, nor did he want anyone to interfere with his harem, especially the Queen Mother, who didn't want to interfere with his own heirs!
Why should he let this woman who has no blood relationship with him control his own child? Which woman is qualified to give birth to his own child, and what does it have to do with her?! Why should she have the final say?
It’s really too much of a deception—it’s so abominable!
Lin Jingyu bit his lower lip tightly, hiding his little hands in his sleeves and clenching them quietly.
The arrogant lady pretended not to notice the other person's small movements of suppressing emotions, lowered her head to play with the crystal clear jade bracelet on her wrist, and continued slowly:
"Jingyue, my mother would like to advise you, while you are still young and the emperor is still interested in you, hurry up and give him a boy and a half girl, and you will be secure for the rest of your life! Even if your years pass away in the future, you will never be able to attract him again.
Even if the emperor is not even interested, he still has his children with him, right? The children will be the princes and grandsons as soon as they are born, and they will inevitably be crowned kings and marquises in the future. As a mother, you and your people will also have a bright face, right?"
Lin Jingyu's body trembled slightly. He took a deep breath and said clearly one word at a time: "Jing'er, please remember your mother's teachings. Jing'er knows what to do."
He felt that he could not stay any longer. He was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his impulse and severely scratch this hateful woman's ears. Although what she said was correct, how could she speak so badly of herself? As a woman,
The king of the country, could he be such a sentimental person? Could he be such a ruthless person towards women?
No! He won’t! He is determined not to make the same mistakes as his father!
He will not let his women suffer any harm or unfair treatment! Maybe he does not love them, but at least he will not let them live in fear! At least, he will not let the misfortune of his mother and concubine happen again!
This is the responsibility of an emperor and his responsibility as a man!
He, Lin Jingyu, hereby swears...
When he was about to go out, the Queen Mother suddenly stopped him again.
"Jingyue, where were you on the day your young lady had an accident?" After saying that, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
Lin Jingyu was stunned, not understanding what she meant.
"The day the lady had an accident,..."
At that time, he was in the palace.
