The emperor's smile froze on his face instantly.

Xiang Yinghan rushed into the hall without regard for anything else, suppressing his rage as he approached Si Jin.

She reached out and tugged at his collar.

The glaring hickeys from before were now even more vivid, looking utterly filthy!

Xiang Yinghan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave in an instant.

Jinjin is no longer clean!

His pure and innocent light has been tainted!

Who dares to mess with his precious wife?!

Overwhelming jealousy was about to engulf Xiang Yinghan.

He gritted his teeth in anger, "Jingjing, what's going on? Who...?"

Snap!

However, before he could finish asking the question, Si Jin slapped him hard across the face.

The boy's previous fragility vanished completely, replaced by an undeniable air of authority in his beautiful peach blossom eyes.

"How dare you!"

"You sneaked into Renshou Palace in the middle of the night and even grabbed my collar. What are your intentions?!"

This slap stunned Xiang Yinghan.

He stood there for a while before his suppressed anger finally surfaced.

His first instinct was to yell, "Yue Sijin, how dare you hit me!"

However, he swallowed the words back down.

No, that's not how Jinjin was originally.

She loved him deeply and was even willing to die for him, so she would never lay a hand on him.

Some madman must have bullied him and corrupted him!

Xiang Yinghan tried to calm himself down, put his hand on Si Jin's shoulder, and patiently asked again:

"Jingjing, tell me who has come these past few days, I will definitely... Ahhhhh!"

Once again, before he could finish his question, Si Jin kicked him in the stomach.

The tall emperor leaned back, knocking over the mahogany carved table behind him.

The teacups clattered to the ground, and as Xiang Yinghan fell, his hand landed squarely on the ceramic shards, instantly turning into a bloody mess.

His mind went blank from the pain, and he kept gasping for breath.

While recovering, he heard Si Jin's cold voice:

"Your Majesty, you and I are both men."

"What I have, you have just as much as I have; what I don't have, you don't have either."

"If Your Majesty has a penchant for subservience to men, you may seek your own pleasure. Don't use your concern for the empress and concubines to disgust me."

"I don't eat very well to begin with, and I don't want to vomit it up."

"Yes." As soon as he finished speaking, an even colder and more sinister male voice rang out.

Xiang Linyuan pushed open the door and entered, his soft sword instantly drawn from its sheath, and pressed it against Xiang Yinghan's neck without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, I warned you when I left the palace during the day not to come to Renshou Palace to disturb me."

"But what about you? Not only did you not listen, but you also sent assassins to ambush and kill me on the way."

"The assassin has been killed and thrown back into your bedchamber. Next time, remember to send someone with superior martial arts skills, otherwise, it won't be very challenging."

Seeing this, Xiang Yinghan finally understood.

It turns out that it was that bastard Xiang Linyuan who stole his precious girl!

He knew it! Why would someone as well-behaved as Jinjin attack him? She must have been bewitched by Xiang Linyuan, which is why she allowed Xiang Linyuan to leave those dirty marks on her body.

Xiang Linyuan is a madman. He will stop at nothing to make things difficult for him. He even dares to touch his precious wife!

No, he couldn't let Xiang Linyuan succeed. He had to find a way to get Jinjin back!

He'd got it! He remembered that Jinjin's birthday was in a few days.

He was determined to personally throw a grand birthday banquet for Jinjin this year, and he would find the best doctor in the world to cure her poisoning, so that the person who rightfully belonged to him could return to his side!
