Although she believed that Xie Jingrun had not done anything with Huayin, she was certain that Huayin had entered her bedchamber and seduced him.
But today, she saw that Hua Yin was unharmed, which meant that Xie Jingrun had spared her again because of his maternal grandfather who had passed away many years ago.
He could forgive such a thing. No wonder Hua Yin didn't take her seriously. It turns out that Xie Jingrun spoiled her.
Just now in the side courtyard, Hua Yin said that in this world, besides Xie Jingrun, who else can spoil her?
How arrogant! Does she think she, the rightful empress, is a pushover?
Thinking of this, she became even angrier and her expression turned sour.
Xie Jingrun's face was cold and angry.
From the moment he took office as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard of the Zhenfu Division, no one dared to give him the cold shoulder. Now, as the emperor of the Great Liang Dynasty, holding the power of life and death, no one dared to offend him or give him a hard time.
But the woman in front of him repeatedly challenged his authority, showing no respect for him whatsoever.
Given his past temperament, she would never have been able to sit here properly.
Sometimes, he even felt like he didn't recognize himself anymore.
Because of one person, exceptions were made time and again.
His heart pounded for a long time before finally calming down.
You have to pamper the woman you chose, even if it means kneeling down.
He rubbed his temples, looked at the woman who was so far away from him, and suddenly got up and sat down next to her.
If she won't come to him, then he will go to her.
When Rong Qingqing saw him coming, she got up and walked away.
However, before she could make a move, Xie Jingrun had already pulled her onto his lap and made her sit there.
Between her struggles, he said apologetically, "It's all my fault. I've made you suffer today."
Rong Qingqing paused, somewhat surprised.
However, seeing that he was not angry at all, but instead had this attitude, she felt somewhat pleased, but her expression remained indifferent, and she said with a hint of self-deprecation, "Who told her to be your precious cousin? What does it matter if I suffer a little grievance?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Jingrun suddenly tightened his grip on her waist, his voice displeased, "What is she? If she's so blind again, you can have her beaten to death."
Rong Qingqing was taken aback and turned to look at her, "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Xie Jingrun frowned, displeased that she was questioning him like that.
Rong Qingqing blinked, her tone hesitant, "But if you do that, wouldn't you be breaking your late grandfather's promise to you..."
Xie Jingrun said calmly, "Over the years, I have taken good care of them. If they know their place, it's fine to continue taking care of them. But if they lose their sense of propriety, they shouldn't blame me."
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered something and asked, "What Huayin said, is it true? You and her..."
"I didn't touch her." Xie Jingrun interrupted her with a frown, his face gloomy.
"But she described it in such detail, even saying that she did *that* with you in my bedchamber," Rong Qingqing said, feigning anger. Although she knew it was false, she still felt very uncomfortable that her man was being coveted and even fantasized about.
Xie Jingrun's face was very ugly. He suddenly regretted not dealing with Hua Yin that day, which gave her the opportunity to gossip in front of Qingqing.
"That's not true! I think she's gone mad to say something like that!"
After saying that, he met the woman's bright eyes, thought for a moment, and couldn't help but tell her the whole story, "Actually, on the night before you returned from the royal estate, she did have some wicked thoughts, but I didn't touch her, I didn't even look at her twice."
