Longde Hall.
Yin Changling sat on the dragon throne and pulled Tu Shanlingxi to sit down as well. Their movements were so natural that it seemed as if the throne was not a dragon throne but an ordinary chair.
"Sit down. We still need to interrogate Yin Yi later. What if your legs hurt from standing all the time?"
Other palace servants' inner monologue: ?
Palace servant's inner monologue: It turns out I am not worthy.
The palace servants who served others were always standing and never had a chance to rest. They often had to run around all day, let alone sit down.
They dared not slack off; if the tyrant set his sights on them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It's unbelievable that the tyrant is now acting so unusually, treating a woman with such care and tenderness.
The palace servants stole glances at Tu Shan Lingxi. When they saw the woman's stunningly beautiful face, they were amazed but then found it no longer surprising.
Yes, only a woman like this could be treated with such care by a tyrant.
After all, the bright moon in the sky is hard to find, and this woman is just like the bright moon, so beautiful that she seems unreal, dreamlike, like a fairy or a goddess.
If he were a tyrant, he would cherish such a beauty, but unfortunately, he couldn't offer her anything in return.
Tu Shan Lingxi had no idea how devastating her face was; the little fox had little understanding of human beauty and ugliness.
In the little fox's eyes, humans were giant bipedal creatures that could walk upright and had no fur, or only some black fur.
Tu Shan Lingxi felt that only white hair like hers, like that of the Imperial Preceptor, looked good!
I just don't know how I was tricked by that bastard Yin Yi in my past life. That ugly bastard, humph, he actually turned the tables and killed me!
Whenever she thought about this, Tu Shan Lingxi felt a surge of anger and resentment in her chest, and she rubbed her chest uncomfortably.
...
When Yin Changling invited her to sit down, Tu Shan Lingxi agreed. It wasn't that the little fox was lazy; it was just that she was afraid her legs would hurt.
Okay~
Tu Shan Lingxi sat down directly following Yin Changling's force, after all, she used to be a little fox and loved to snuggle in people's arms.
There was clearly nowhere else to sit, so where else could she sit if not on a chair?
As Yin Changling watched her obediently sit down, his gaze deepened. He truly felt that this woman was an enigma in every way.
She clearly minds even holding hands, as if someone had told her to do so, but that person's instructions weren't entirely complete.
The woman clearly showed no aversion to sitting at the same table; was this how her elders and that unknown lover had taught her?
If the Imperial Advisor knew that his little fox was out there getting so close to other men, he would have been so angry he would have vomited blood.
Unfortunately, despite all the precautions the Grand Preceptor took, he still couldn't stop the wild man, and that man was none other than Yin Changling, whom he feared most. What a cruel twist of fate!
Yin Changling was unaware that the Grand Preceptor was on guard against him.
In fact, the person he trusted most was the Imperial Advisor!
Yin Changling's eyes were now filled with Tu Shan Lingxi. As an emperor, he refused to believe that he was inferior to that man.
Yin Changling believed that it was Heaven's mercy that sent Xi'er to his side, but there might have been some mishaps beforehand.
But it doesn't matter, I will set everything right. Xi'er is mine, and no one can stop me.
The two were destined to be together; otherwise, why would Xi'er frequently appear in his dreams, allowing them to meet, get to know each other, and even fall in love in his dreams?
It's just unknown what Xi'er's background is. Her elders are far too irresponsible, failing to teach her about the proper separation of men and women.
But that's fine too. If they're not taking responsibility, then I'll teach her myself from now on. If they don't care, I'll take care of her!
In an instant, a variety of thoughts flashed through Yin Changling's mind, all of which were related to the young woman beside him.
Thinking about how to keep Xi'er by his side in the future, he thought that if that man was sensible, he should leave on his own, and he might be able to spare his life.
Otherwise, let him live. Who told him to be so blind as to marry the wrong person!
Various thoughts flashed through Yin Changling's mind. When he realized what he was planning, he smiled helplessly.
Yes, even though they're not together yet, he's already planning for the future; that's something he's capable of doing.
...
"Changling, why hasn't anyone arrived yet?"
Tu Shan Lingxi couldn't sit still any longer. She reached out and tugged at Yin Changling's sleeve, staring at him with her big, bright eyes, demanding an answer from him.
Yin Changling was pulled back to his senses by her. Seeing her slightly anxious expression, he patted her head reassuringly.
"Alright, alright, I'll have someone bring him over right now."
After comforting Tu Shan Lingxi, Yin Changling sent Su Ba and the others to find someone. He then dug out the things he had investigated a few days earlier.
"Guards, summon Yin Yi to an audience."
"yes."
Tu Shan Lingxi watched the palace servants walk away before she finally smiled and had time to care about Yin Changling.
"Changling, do you know that people outside say you are cruel, violent, bloodthirsty, and lustful?"
"I had no idea when I became such a horrifying figure. Have you ever witnessed me killing someone?"
Although Yin Changling was pleased that Xi'er cared about him, he felt there was no need for such rumors.
He retorted, even feeling somewhat fortunate that he hadn't killed anyone in front of Tu Shan Lingxi; otherwise, he might have been unable to defend himself and had simply killed the person and run away.
When Tu Shan Lingxi received his negative answer, her eyes widened instantly.
Doesn't he enjoy tormenting people? If Yin Yi falls into his hands, won't he be treated like royalty, with plenty of food and drink?
"Are you lying to me? Do you really not like killing?"
Tu Shan Lingxi was still incredulous, wondering if her wishful thinking had failed. She hurriedly asked for clarification.
"Then why don't you punish Yin Yi and torture him?"
"So that's what Xi'er wanted to know. I thought she was just worried about..."
Yin Changling couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes. He truly felt sorry for her; so Xi'er really didn't like him?
I thought I'd finally gotten Xi'er's attention!
Yin Changling was immersed in this sorrow, and his aura inexplicably evoked sadness. Tu Shan Lingxi keenly sensed the unusual nature of it.
"What's wrong with Changling? Are you unhappy?"
This was the first time Tu Shan Lingxi had ever seen Yin Changling so depressed. The little fox was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see Yin Changling so sad.
Although she didn't know what she had said wrong, the bottom line was that the little fox might have said something she shouldn't have during the conversation.
Tu Shan Lingxi was momentarily at a loss. She was the one who was coaxed, not the one who coaxed others.
Don't be sad.
