Sheng Changling rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but chuckle softly.
The man's voice was pleasant to hear when he laughed, unlike his usual arrogant and domineering demeanor; at this moment, he was extremely gentle.
He now resembles a horse that has found its master. In the wild, he was unruly and untamed, but here, he was completely docile, radiating a gentle light.
Perhaps it was the man's voice that was so gentle that it attracted the attention of the two little ones, and Sheng Changling met two pairs of almost identical eyes.
Both pairs of eyes were equally beautiful, round, bright, and clear, making one's heart soften.
"What's wrong?"
Sheng Changling lifted his robe and sat on the soft stool by the bed, taking the little prince from Liu Lingxi's arms quite naturally, as if he were the child's biological father.
"Well...."
Liu Lingxi resisted the urge to blurt out disrespectful words, and seeing that his way of holding the baby was even better than hers, she decided not to take him back.
However, I still need to find out exactly what's going on.
"King Jing—"
"Call me Changling."
Before Liu Lingxi could finish her sentence, Sheng Changling interrupted her with a voice so soft it was almost sickening, completely unlike the terrifying voice rumored to be.
Looking at the man who was dressed in a black dragon robe with gold dragon patterns and a jade dragon head hairpin, who was still noble and domineering despite his restraint, and seeing the small baby in his arms, Liu Lingxi felt a sense of warmth for some reason.
This emboldened her, and before she knew it, she had asked all the questions that had been on her mind.
"Changling, why didn't Your Highness kill me?"
Sheng Changling, who had seen through the woman's timid nature like a rabbit, was quite surprised at this moment. This was not like her at all.
However, after the initial surprise, Sheng Changling felt a surge of joy, a feeling that was utterly unfamiliar...
The way Xi'er looked at him, the feeling of being watched by her wholeheartedly, made his soul seem to undergo some kind of baptism, causing him to tremble involuntarily.
eager...
Sheng Changling was acutely aware that every part of his body was screaming that he longed to possess this person.
He was overjoyed by just a glance, a simple touch, and craved more and more...
Love arises without warning, and deepens with each passing moment.
Sheng Changling's lips curled into a smile, and instantly his entire demeanor changed, exuding an air of wickedness and making him look eerily charming.
"Why should I kill you?"
"My status as a concubine..."
"Xi'er is my Empress, and Yu'er is my Crown Prince. Do you want me to kill my own wife and children?"
Sheng Changling didn't keep anyone in suspense; he looked proud, as if he were talking about something completely ordinary.
His incomparably handsome face, especially his narrow eyes, shone with an inexplicable light—no, it was burning heat!
"Well, do you understand now?"
Both Liu Lingxi and the palace servants waiting there were startled by Sheng Changling's words.
Your Majesty... are you going to establish an empress?
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, forgetting all about court etiquette.
Although they had experienced a thrilling palace coup, they could understand taking someone else's wife, but what kind of logic was it to take someone else's son?
"!"
They don't understand, they really don't understand!
However, what will happen to Miss Jiang after His Majesty establishes an empress?
