Chapter 66
Sleeping Wen Xin: "???"
Wasn't it this person who appeared in the artificial hill first and provoked her?
Even an emperor can't turn the tables and accuse others!
However, is the obsessive male supporting character's tendency to sneak into her boudoir a trait ingrained in his genes?
Wen Xin was stunned for a moment, not understanding why she would think that way.
But she was somewhat aware that it was related to the memories that were sealed in her previous life, right?
Wen Xin stopped thinking about it. She believed in herself; if the memories were sealed, there must be a reason, and there was no need to delve into it for the time being.
As for the man sitting on the edge of the bed with a sinister look in his eyes that seemed like he was about to do something indecent to her, Wen Xin calmly turned over and slept even more soundly.
She was confident that he was all bark and no bite, and that no matter how twisted his thoughts were, he would become a paper tiger with no power when it came to actually doing something to her.
However, His Majesty seems to be quite ill as well!
But right now she's just a kind and innocent pushover, and she also has the title of the wife of the heir of the Marquis of Xuanwu, so it's really not easy for her to do anything.
Forget it, let's take it slow!
As long as she is no longer controlled by the Heavenly Dao plot and remains devoted to Shangguan Hao, she will no longer implicate Emperor Chengyuan.
Thinking back to his previous life, he was so crazy that he wanted to force himself on her and imprison her, but in the end, he always gave in to her tears, helping her time and time again and going along with her wishes.
Because of her, even though he knew Shangguan Hao had wolfish ambitions, he continued to indulge him.
Even when he died suddenly, he left behind an order that Shangguan Hao must honor her as his legal wife, and even left behind some power to protect her.
Unfortunately, in the context of the Heavenly Dao storyline, she was completely love-struck, giving all her trump cards to Shangguan Hao, ultimately leaving herself helpless and frustrated to die in the inner quarters.
Later, as a ghost, she discovered that Emperor Chengyuan's sudden death was orchestrated by Shangguan Hao...
No wonder she hated him so much that she turned into a vengeful ghost filled with resentment!
In this life, Wen Xin will naturally not repeat the same mistakes.
Whether it was to secure her own position and ensure she was not bullied, or to atone for her guilt towards Emperor Chengyuan, she would stay by his side.
However, it's important to establish a good "kind-hearted pushover" persona!
Well, could you call that a kind of fun?
How could Emperor Chengyuan know the complicated thoughts in the heart of his beloved little darling?
Seeing her sleeping so soundly, his eyes softened more and more.
His fingertips gently touched her fair cheek. Emperor Cheng Yuan leaned closer to her, and the sweet fragrance of the woman made his charming eyes narrow slightly, his dark eyes surging.
However, in the end, he still refrained from kissing her.
I've already lured this silly little dumpling to my side, it would be too much to take advantage of her while she's asleep.
Emperor Chengyuan ultimately did not want to become a beast in her eyes.
...
"Your Majesty, shall we return to the palace?"
As dawn broke, Emperor Chengyuan silently emerged from the girl's bedroom.
His eyes were covered with a bit of grime, but his gaze remained sharp and deep, exuding an imposing imperial aura.
But for one person, the emperor, who was always cold and cruel, had begun to have his eyes tinged with obsessive love and desire.
I don't know if this is good or bad for the world.
At the main gate, Mo Zhi lowered his eyes and asked respectfully.
Emperor Chengyuan gave a faint "hmm".
Mo Zhi: "Your subordinate has prepared the horses."
Emperor Chengyuan turned his head to look in the direction of the bedroom, his eyes deep.
"The people of the West Depot should guard this place and not let anything foolish offend her."
"yes."
"Tell Sun Zhong not to make any mistakes regarding the Xuanwu Marquis's residence."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured."
Mo Zhi suddenly realized something and asked, "Your Majesty, should we also wipe out the Wen family in one fell swoop?"
Yesterday was the Empress Dowager's birthday. His Majesty only deposed Wen Liliang and Wen Xian, but many members of the Wen family still hold official positions in the capital.
However, with the Wen family losing their position as prime minister and falling out of favor with the emperor, their future in the capital is certainly going to be difficult.
Given how much His Majesty cherishes the Crown Prince's wife, how could the Wen family, who dared to mistreat her, possibly fare well?
Emperor Chengyuan twirled the jade thumb ring on his thumb, his voice cold and gloomy, "No need, we'll deal with her after she ascends the throne."
Weren't those people from the Wen family bullying and looking down on her?
The emperor would make them all kneel before her, look up at her as she soars to the heavens like a phoenix, and beg for her mercy, so that they would be filled with regret.
Then, he slowly made them struggle in the abyss of despair to atone for their sins!
Mo Zhi: "..."
Your Majesty, the Lady is still someone else's first wife, yet you've already thought about making her Empress?
However, given the Crown Prince's wife's situation, it might not be easy for her to become Empress.
Mo Zhi looked at the cold and domineering king before him and couldn't help but sigh.
No one can stop His Majesty from doing what he wants.
Moreover, His Majesty is not the kind of emperor who cares about his reputation and whose imperial power is constrained by nobles and civil officials.
This was a monarch who truly fought his way from the border all the way to the capital, using absolute military force to ascend to that supreme position.
The powerful and wealthy officials were naturally inferior to him.
However, there are always some brilliant but dim-witted individuals who attempt to challenge the emperor's authority, and the future status of the crown prince's wife will become their best weapon to attack His Majesty.
Unfortunately, His Majesty will certainly not be coerced; on the contrary, he will slaughter them all one by one.
But even so, His Majesty's reputation as a tyrant will likely never be erased throughout history.
Well, even without the Crown Prince's wife, in the eyes of those aloof literati, His Majesty was still a tyrant who murdered his brother to seize the throne.
Judging from this, His Majesty has no intention of salvaging his reputation. So it seems that adding the accusation of stealing a subject's wife wouldn't be a big deal... right?
...
"Miss, are you awake?"
After a good night's sleep, Wen Xin woke up groggily, feeling languid. Her small, pale face was flushed with a rosy blush, making her look less fragile and more charming and alluring.
Even Xiao Lian, who was of the same sex, and the maids of the manor couldn't help but stare, feeling that their mistress was so beautiful that they were completely captivated.
The maids didn't know whether to be glad that His Majesty wasn't there, or to regret that His Majesty couldn't see this picture of a beautiful woman languidly and helplessly.
Of course, it wasn't that they had any improper thoughts; when they were assigned by His Majesty to take care of this mistress, their honor and disgrace became tied to her.
The more His Majesty favors her, the brighter her future will be.
Therefore, they truly served people wholeheartedly.
Wen Xin's pair of shimmering, affectionate eyes were still half-asleep, showing no awareness whatsoever of her allure.
Suddenly, she realized it was bright outside, her face paled slightly, and a hint of panic crept in.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
Xiao Lian helped her master, who was hurriedly getting out of bed, and asked with concern.
Wen Xin seemed not to be awake yet, and said anxiously, "Xiao Lian, why didn't you wake me up? It's so late, I'm sure I'll miss the time to pay my respects to my mother-in-law in the morning and evening, what should I do?"
