Wei Linglong's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the blue veins on the back of her hand bulged, which was very scary.
The emperor curled his lips, his voice was gentle, but there was an indescribable sense of weirdness, like the whisper of a devil, "Linglong, I found out that you were conscious last time, be good, tell father, what did you say to Wei Xiuchu?"
Wei Linglong's eyelashes trembled even more violently, as if she was afraid.
The emperor laughed softly, "You are my only daughter. I have doted on you since you were little. You are as precious as a pearl to me. But do you still remember who your biological father is? You are even closer to Wei Xiuchu than to me!"
At this point, the emperor's eyes had become extremely frightened, like two dark whirlpools. His hands were shaking, and he took a deep breath, "Linglong, don't blame me. I was also... forced to do so."
The emperor's voice was not small.
Inside the palace, all the palace servants lowered their heads and trembled.
The moment the emperor walked out of the princess's palace, the sunlight was dazzling and rushed to his face.
"The servants in the Princess' Palace who failed to serve her properly shall all be executed."
——
The emperor was diligent in his work and seldom came to the harem.
Concubine Chen's Wutong Palace was always deserted, but today it was surprisingly lively. Some were lighting the lights, some were cleaning up, some were serving the dishes, and everyone was busy.
Concubine Chen sat in front of the bronze mirror, carefully drawing her eyebrows and putting on makeup, her beautiful eyes full of expectation, "Mammy, do you think I can do this?"
The woman with a bun on her head smiled and said, "Your Highness is very beautiful and charming."
Concubine Chen sighed softly, "Ever since that little bitch Wei Linglong fell ill, Your Majesty has never entered the harem again. This is the first time. It's a pity that I'm pregnant, otherwise..."
Nanny Wang smiled and said, "So His Majesty still loves the Queen very much. Even though there is no bed, he still comes to see the Queen. He must be thinking about the child in the Queen's arms."
Concubine Chen sighed, "But my father asked someone to check it out, and it's a baby girl..."
Nanny Wang shook her head. "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. It would be better if it were a daughter. The prince is nearly 20 years old, and he is very talented. He is trusted by the people, and he has the support of Prince Yong. It is a foregone conclusion that he will inherit the throne, and no one can change it.
Your Majesty, this baby is a boy, and he will just be a supporting role for the prince. If it is a girl, it will be extraordinary. It seems that the one is dying, so your child will be the only daughter of His Majesty.
You also know how His Majesty doted on the princess in the early years. His Majesty will certainly treat her as the continuation of Wei Linglong's life and dote on her very much."
Concubine Chen's confused eyes gradually cleared up, and she raised her red lips with great pride, "Yes, this is your Majesty's only daughter, and it is said that Prince Yong also loves his daughter. When the time comes, let my daughter get to know him more. Will she still worry about wealth and glory? Now I just hope that the little bitch Wei Linglong dies soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch's hoarse voice was heard outside the hall.
"Your Majesty has arrived—"
Concubine Chen's face turned pale instantly. I wonder how much His Majesty has heard?
She quickly adjusted her expression and greeted him charmingly, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"My dear, please get up. You are pregnant."
A low voice came.
Concubine Chen raised her eyes shyly, her eyes full of admiration.
The man in front of him was a supreme ruler with a majestic aura. Even though he was over forty years old, he was still handsome and didn't look old at all.
The emperor helped Concubine Chen to sit down at the dining table and asked, "How is your health recently?"
Concubine Chen frowned slightly and bit her lip. "Everything else is fine, but I have severe morning sickness. I like spicy food these days. I think I'm a little princess."
Concubine Chen thought that the emperor would be happy after she said this, but she didn't expect the man in front of her to change his expression in an instant, and said in a voice filled with anger, "I only have one princess, Linglong. Don't say such things in the future."
Concubine Chen was surprised and clenched her hands into fists, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
The emperor stood up and stared at her condescendingly. "My most beloved daughter is dying, and you are talking about giving me another princess. Is that appropriate? And I promised Linglong that I would only favor her as my daughter."
Concubine Chen's face turned pale instantly.
The emperor seemed not to see it, and left in anger.
Only after the people had gone far away did Concubine Chen dare to cry out loud, "Mammy, what do you think His Majesty means? Wei Linglong is a human being, but the one I gave birth to is not one? I really want Wei Linglong to die sooner!"
Nanny Wang's eyes flashed with coldness, and her face looked very embarrassed, "My queen, it seems that there is only one solution now... We must not let the little princess be born before Wei Linglong dies. His Majesty will be in a bad mood and will definitely not care about her..."
Concubine Chen looked up suddenly, her eyes red.
"Yes, only if I kill her, my daughter will be the only princess, the most noble princess! Anyway, she will not live long..."
