"Since you promised the little emperor, are you not prepared for the situation you will face?"

"I...I..." Xiao Ling became anxious when she heard that.

These were all made up by her, so how could she answer them?

Finally, he was helpless and said angrily: "With what happened before, I never thought that the emperor's plan would succeed!"

Chu Yi was stunned.

Then, he was amused by these innocent words, “I can’t believe it, Miss Shen seems to approve of my character!”

Xiao Ling wanted to cry but had no tears. This was clearly not what I meant.

How could this traitor be so shameless?

While she was still feeling annoyed, Chu Yi suddenly stood up.

Then he took a step forward without saying anything, and the distance between them became closer.

Xiao Ling was still on guard against whether he would do anything out of line, but Chu Yi, on the other hand, had no scruples at all and simply reached out and hugged her back.

Then he just applied a little force, and before Xiao Ling could even struggle, she fell into his arms.

A very strong masculine scent hit her in the face, and she could faintly smell the fragrance of the sachet hanging around Chu Yi's waist.

As soon as he raised his head, he met Chu Yi's extremely hateful and shameless gaze, and Xiao Ling's whole body froze for a moment.

Chu Yi was very comfortable.

In his opinion, the person in front of him was simply a lamb to be slaughtered by the wolf. No matter whether Chen Tang was a rose with thorns or not, he could do whatever he wanted to her.

The reason why there are so many steps is simply because Chen Tang's opinion needs to be considered.

After all, he is the prime minister of a country. Although he is a treacherous minister, he cannot be a beast.

Immediately afterwards, he naturally pinched Xiao Ling's chin with his other hand.

The woman in his arms was soft and frightened, and he could clearly feel the rapidly rising temperature on her cheeks.

"You...you...let me go!"

Xiao Ling was really panicked for a moment, grabbing Chu Yi's robe and trying to push him.

How could this be?

He was the emperor, the sovereign of a country, but he was treated rudely by a minister.

She had seen Chu Yi's rudeness too many times, but this kind of shamelessness was the first time she had seen it.

At such a critical moment, Xiao Ling couldn't help but recall the magic mirror's previous evaluation of Chu Yi.

Xiao Ling regretted very much that he really shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess.

This Chu thief, traitor, evil thief, and rebel! His behavior was exactly as the magic mirror said.

Especially when Xiao Ling realized that he couldn't do anything to the Chu thieves no matter how hard he pushed, his mind was completely confused.

Thinking only of his own state, would he resort to force?

What should I do if he uses force?

If I carefully tell Chu Yi that my true identity is the empress and explain everything before I ascended the throne, will Chu Yi let me go temporarily?

But on second thought, if the traitor knew that the little emperor he had been bullying was actually an empress...would he be even more excited?

Xiao Ling didn't even dare to think about it.

Fortunately, Chu Yi was only a little bit reckless.

He quickly let go of Xiao Ling in his arms, but his hands were still on her lower back to prevent Xiao Ling from running away.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling, who had been lost in thought, finally calmed down.

It seemed that the situation was not too bad. When she was hugged just now, she almost wanted to die.

But worried that Chu Yi might do something inappropriate, she finally gritted her teeth and warned:

"You, you, you...if you dare to be rude again, I...I...will really die in front of you!"

Chu Yi could indeed see the obvious determination on her face.

Seeing this, he didn't want to be greedy.

But after thinking about it, he couldn't help but pinch her angry cheek.

I haven't tried anything else, but this face is really elastic.

Then, seeing that she was about to get angry, Chu Yi withdrew his hand and sat back at the table.

"Don't worry, although I'm a bad guy, I'm not impatient. I won't force anything on you. I can wait for you to think it through."

"After all, we do have a common enemy. When the time comes to overthrow the Xiao family's rule, you will be my queen. If you wish, I can even favor you alone."

“Of course, I still have one thing to say, the premise is that you are indeed not the emperor’s subordinate, but Chen Tang, and you will not do anything to betray me.”

Chu Yi didn't say much irrelevant things, but directly promised her the position of queen.

He believed that no woman could resist this position.

Queen... Queen, Xiao Ling kept repeating these two words in his heart, gritting his teeth.

I can't wait to go up and fight him.

This traitor, relying on his own helplessness, did not expect that he would reveal his ambitions to others so easily in private.

It was the first time she had seen a rebel tell everyone he was going to rebel before he started!

She is the emperor, the supreme ruler. Could it be possible that she would care about his so-called broken queen?

Xiao Ling originally wanted to directly reject Chu Yi's olive branch.

After all, with her status, let’s not talk about whether she will get married or not. Even if she gets married in the future, she can’t be a traitor who tries to seize her kingdom, right?

Marry the traitor Chu Yi, and then watch Chu Yi and the Chu family pull you down from the throne?

Then, when she was imprisoned, Chu Yi suddenly came with an imperial decree, granting her a marriage and making her his queen?

Are you kidding me?

But before she could refute, her sharp eyes happened to catch a very sudden meaning in Chu Yi's words.

Does that mean Chu Yi said that he and Chen Tang have the same enemy?

Or is it yourself, the emperor?

This is ridiculous!

How dare they regard the emperor as their enemy? What kind of sycophant could say such a ridiculous thing?

Xiao Ling was very angry. She had seen too many misunderstandings in her life, but this was the first time she had seen someone like Chu Yi.

Afterwards, when she calmed down, she had the opportunity for the first time to ask Chu Yi something she had wanted to know countless times, as she had been very confused all these years.

That is...

"I remember that the emperor treated your Chu family with mostly peace. He even promoted many members of the Chu family at the beginning of his reign. But... why do you hate the current emperor so much?"

Xiao Ling looked at Chu Yi and asked this question.

Seeing Chu Yi's expression suddenly change, her heart also started beating.

As a monarch, she had always been reluctant to ask this question.

After all, she is the emperor. If her subjects are disloyal, it is a mistake. There is no reason to trace her own reasons.

But Shen Tang’s current identity allows it.

Faced with Xiao Ling's question, Chu Yi was silent for a long time, and his expression returned to calm.

"Hate? Do I have any?"

Xiao Ling was speechless. Don’t you know whether you have it or not?

As the relationship between the two is that of a monarch and his subject, I'm afraid the only thing missing from you is raising the flag of rebellion.

"Perhaps... you must have misunderstood."

Then, Chu Yi thought about it and spoke like this.

"I'm not targeting the little emperor, I'm targeting everyone in the Xiao family."
