The Empress Dowager and the Queen wanted to conceal the news from Xu Jinyi, and no one dared to inform the Emperor.
So Xu Jinyi really finished copying the Buddhist scriptures in the Cining Palace before leaving.
The emperor only found out about this at night when he came to Xu Jinyi's bedroom.
"Why didn't you send someone to inform me?" The emperor took the medicated oil from Xia Qing's hand and helped Xu Jinyi rub his bruised knee.
Maybe it was because my skin was too tender, I didn’t kneel for long today but my knees became red and swollen.
"Hiss...be gentle."
Xu Jinyi slapped the emperor's hand, tears in her eyes, her delicate body trembling slightly, looking more and more pitiful and weak, making her want to be bullied.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, he coaxed her softly, "Be good, rub it hard so that the blood clot can be dissolved."
Xia Qing, standing aside, was almost scared to death by Xu Jinyi.
Seeing her queen slap the emperor on the back of his hand, Xia Qing turned pale with fright.
Eunuch Youfu, who was standing by, looked at Xia Qing, whose face turned pale with fear, shook his head, and sighed that the maidservant beside the empress was too useless.
Didn’t you see the worry on the emperor’s face?
Xu Jinyi pouted and said softly, "I'm fine. I just knelt for a short while, and the Queen Mother only gave me a few words of advice."
Looking at such a sensible beauty, the emperor felt heartbroken.
"Your Majesty, it is the turn of my two sisters to sleep with me tonight. Do you really not have to go?" Xu Jinyi pouted and sounded aggrieved.
"Why? You want me to go?"
Xu Jinyi snorted coldly: "Your Majesty, go if you want."
As she said that, she kicked his big hand away and walked barefoot on the ground.
With such a bad temper, he is also a little jealous. The emperor laughed and got up to chase after him.
Then he picked up Xu Jinyi and threw her onto the bed.
Eunuch Youfu tactfully led his men to retreat.
Holding Xu Jinyi's face from above, the emperor said in a serious tone, "Yier, except for you, I will not favor any other woman in the harem."
"This talent show was originally arranged by my mother. I never thought of holding another talent show."
After a pause, the Emperor began to explain for the Queen Mother: "My Queen Mother wants me to take more concubines because it is for my own good. She hopes that I can have my own children."
"Back then, my mother and I were confined to the cold palace. We spent ten years living lives worse than dogs. Finally, after all the hardships, we fought our way out and won the throne."
"Naturally, I am unwilling to be childless in this life and hand over this vast kingdom to outsiders in the future."
Xu Jinyi was stunned. She didn't expect that the emperor would be willing to say this to her.
She never expected that the emperor would only want to protect her in the future.
"Then why, Your Majesty..."
Before Xu Jinyi could even ask the question, the emperor answered.
"Because I have you now, I used to be a bit obsessed with the issue of offspring, but now I've let it go."
“Some things, if they are meant to come, will come. If they are not meant to come, you cannot force them to come.”
"So I plan to choose an heir. I'm a generation older than you and will leave before you. I will carefully select the heir so that you don't have to worry about anything after I'm gone."
Xu Jinyi raised her hand to cover his lips to prevent him from saying sad words.
"Who says Your Majesty can't have his own children? Perhaps I can get pregnant with Your Majesty's child. Instead of wasting time raising someone else's child, it's better to work hard to give birth to your own child."
She exerted force with her jade arms, pulled the emperor towards her, and offered her red lips.
The emperor smiled and then kissed her.
He reached out to Xu Jinyi's belt and gently lifted it, revealing her slender figure.
Soon, Xu Jinyi's delicate voice was heard, and the moon was so embarrassed that it hid in the dark clouds.
"Your Majesty, give me, give me, our child." Xu Jinyi panted in confusion and spoke softly.
"Here you go, all of it."
The emperor held Xu Jinyi in his arms and exhausted all his energy as if he were sprinting a 100-meter race.
Looking at the half-conscious Xu Jinyi, the emperor bent down and kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Yier, catch our child and give birth to a child for me."
A warning sound came from Xu Jinyi's mouth, as if responding to the emperor's words.
That night, Xu Jinyi took a fake pregnancy pill, but in fact she saw the emperor express his deep affection and desire to have a child.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally took the fake pregnancy pill.
If the queen is not removed, she will become pregnant, which will be very dangerous.
When the queen goes crazy, she can do anything.
On this day, Xu Jinyi was sitting in the Qinzheng Hall reading a book as usual, accompanying the emperor in reviewing memorials.
Eunuch Youfu suddenly bent down and walked in: "Your Majesty, General Guangwei requests an audience."
General Guangwei, Xu Jinyi lowered his brows, remembering who that was.
In the previous life, when the original owner was imprisoned in the dark dungeon, the queen mentioned this person.
The queen was able to easily take her away from the harem and imprison her in the dungeon because of her brother who was the general.
Xu Jinyi looked up at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I will step aside first."
The emperor's expression remained unchanged: "No need. Come and grind the ink for me."
"Send him in."
General Guangwei was wearing a purple robe embroidered with gold patterns, a gold belt around his waist, his eyebrows were slanted, and he looked murderous.
Jiang Jingheng strode in with long boots and saw Xu Jinyi beside the emperor.
At that moment, Jiang Jingheng was also amazed by Xu Jinyi's appearance.
This must be the Concubine Xu that my sister mentioned.
No wonder my sister is so afraid of Concubine Xu. There is such a beautiful woman in the world.
Even a man would be attracted by it.
The emperor's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Jingheng.
Xu Jinyi also noticed the look in Jiang Jingheng's eyes when he looked at her. She subconsciously took two steps behind the emperor, feeling disgusted.
Noticing that the emperor had turned cold towards him, Jiang Jingheng knelt down quickly, but he was very dissatisfied in his heart.
He returned to Beijing after a victory, but the emperor was dissatisfied with him just because he glanced at this woman.
Originally Jiang Jingheng came to report the battle results, but now he changed the subject and turned directly to Xu Jinyi.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Jiang Jingheng looked at Xu Jinyi and his face became angry.
"explain."
The emperor's face turned cold. Could it be that the Jiang family had forgotten that they were his subjects?
"Women in the harem are not allowed to interfere in government affairs. This is a sign of disaster for the country. How can the emperor bring concubines in and out of this Qinzheng Palace at will?"
"I heard that the Emperor has been favoring Xu in recent months. As the Emperor, he must have been bewitched by the enchanting concubine. Such an enchanting concubine should be put to death."
The emperor looked at Jiang Jingheng coldly, his words icy: "So in your eyes, I am obsessed with women, foolish and incompetent, without any opinions of my own, and can be easily led by women by the nose."
"Just by entering and leaving this Qinzheng Palace, Concubine Xu has acquired extraordinary abilities and brought disaster to my country?"
"As a man, you are so afraid of women."
With just a few words, he elevated himself and belittled others. He is worthy of being an emperor.
Xu Jinyi stood behind the emperor, looking at Jiang Jingheng's dark face, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.
