The atmosphere in Lingxi Palace today is a bit weird.
Xing'er placed the meal on the table, bowed, and then quietly retreated. When she reached the door, she shivered suddenly.
"Mammy, what happened today? In the past, when the Emperor came, our Queen was overjoyed, and everyone was happy, but today..."
Xing'er turned her head and glanced towards the inner hall. "The Empress is silent, and the Emperor is also silent. It's frighteningly quiet."
"You little girl!"
Nanny Jiang pinched Xing'er amusedly and said, "Just focus on your own affairs and don't ask about the master's affairs!"
Having said this, he drove Xing'er away, but did not go in himself. After hesitating for a moment, he closed the door of the inner hall and stood not far away to prevent others from approaching.
In fact, the scene in the inner hall was much weirder than what Xing'er saw.
Lin Chunhuan lowered his head, poking his chopsticks in the bowl intermittently. Although he was sitting at the table, he actually didn't eat much.
If this situation had happened on a normal day, the emperor would have stepped forward to appease him.
She is still pregnant, and not eating is a big deal!
But today, Wen Yunxiao completely ignored him and just ate his own food. Not to mention comforting him, he didn't even say a word.
I don’t know how long it took, but I could hear low sobs.
Wen Yunxiao's heart ached when he heard this. When he raised his head, he found that his Huan'er was looking at him with tearful eyes, and there was worry and sorrow that was suppressed in her eyes.
The teardrops on the fair little face looked more and more crystal clear, like stars falling into the mortal world, and for a moment he was mesmerized by the sight.
It was not until Lin Chunhuan wiped away her tears in a stubborn manner that he came back to his senses.
There was a bitter taste in his throat. Wen Yunxiao hesitated for only a moment, but he couldn't help but give in. He quickly stepped forward and hugged the person in his arms, "Okay, okay, I don't blame you, don't cry."
"But Your Majesty has never been so cruel to me. I knew from the beginning that this matter could not be concealed, but I still had a lucky glimmer of hope and coveted your favor. In the end, I am too greedy!"
The more she spoke, the more tears Lin Chunhuan shed.
Later on, he even choked up and couldn't speak.
Wen Yunxiao remained silent, just patting her back gently, soothing her emotions with gentle movements.
For a moment, even Lin Chunhuan himself was a little confused about what he was thinking. He simply gritted his teeth, pushed the man away, and knelt down in front of the emperor.
The lips that were gently bitten became more and more red, and she closed her eyes slightly, with tears falling down her cheeks.
They all cried, but when others cried they would look ugly and miserable, but she cried very beautifully. The sorrow of a beauty was like a broken jade, desolate and fragile.
She lowered her head slightly, her delicate back bent, and her voice was so low that it was just a whisper. "When Jiang He broke off the engagement, I knew that I was already an abandoned woman."
"As an abandoned woman, I am not worthy of serving the Emperor."
"I originally thought that as long as I never saw that person again in this life, the emperor would not know about this matter. I always had a lucky hope in my heart, so I made mistakes and deliberately concealed it. Now that the emperor knows everything, he probably looks down on me and will never like me again in the future."
"I understand that this is deceiving the emperor. I only ask that the emperor allow me to give birth to a dragon heir and continue the emperor's bloodline, and then allow me to die!"
He kowtowed heavily.
Hearing these words, Wen Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and a dull pain came from his heart.
When the people below found out about the relationship between Lin Chunhuan and Jiang He, he was indeed a little angry.
Even today, when Lin Chunhuan was so resistant to meeting Jiang He, he thought that his Huan'er still had a place for another man in her heart!
That's why I'm so angry today!
But even so, he never thought of giving up his Huan'er, let alone sentencing her to death!
Yet he didn't understand until now.
Huan'er resisted meeting Jiang He because she didn't want him to know about this. She was afraid that she would be disliked and lose his favor because of this.
Everything is for him!
He had never realized as he did at this moment that he held such an important position in the heart of the woman in front of him.
A trace of guilt finally rose in my heart.
Looking down at the ground, where Lin Chunhuan was weeping uncontrollably and shaking, he was shocked to realize that his Huan'er was so sad, she looked like she was about to break...
"Nonsense! Nonsense!"
Pulling him up from the ground, Wen Yunxiao's eyes reddened slightly, "When did I ever say I didn't like you anymore?"
"Besides, you are the biological mother of my son. How can you be sentenced to death just like that?"
"Does Huan'er think I'm such a disregarder of human life?"
Lin Chunhuan's face was full of emotion, but he couldn't help sneering in his heart.
In recent times, haven't there been many people who have been beaten and killed for asking the emperor to adopt a child? I'm afraid that in the eyes of the emperor, anyone who opposes him is a ruthless person.
He certainly didn't feel that he was taking human life lightly.
But in the final analysis, those people were just doing it for the country and their people, so what's wrong with that?
Raising her red eyes, Lin Chunhuan's eyes were filled with surprise and nervousness, "Your Majesty, you don't blame me?"
"certainly!"
Wen Yunxiao's solemn promise, for a moment, he clearly realized that even without this child, he did not want Lin Chunhuan to leave his side.
His Huan'er is so beautiful and pure, and her heart and eyes are filled with only him. How could he be willing to give up such a woman to someone else!
"It's just that river..."
Before the emperor could finish his words, Lin Chunhuan had already raised her hand and swore, "I, your concubine, have absolutely no private feelings for the prince..."
It took a long time for Lin Chunhuan to tell the story of how Jiang He relied on the Lin family to study, and how he met Princess Changning and broke off the engagement with her regardless of her reputation.
The emperor was told about Jiang He's betrayal and cruelty.
While listening to Lin Chunhuan speak, Wen Yunxiao kept looking into her eyes.
Naturally, he also saw the hatred that was clearly visible in her eyes. That hatred was so pure that she almost wanted to cut the person into pieces!
"Your Majesty, because of this incident, my father fell seriously ill and was not fully recovered before I left home. How can I not hate you?"
"And today... Jiang He actually..."
Before she could finish her words, Lin Chunhuan had already bitten her lip tightly, as if she found it difficult to speak. Finally, she said in a muffled voice, "I wish I could never see him again in my lifetime!"
Tears fell on Haobai's wrist. Wen Yunxiao took a deep breath and gently wiped away her tears. "I know."
"Don't worry, no matter what your past was like, my love for you won't diminish even a little bit. I didn't understand you clearly before, but now that I know, I feel more distressed. How could I blame Huan'er in the slightest?"
