Hearing the emperor say this, Xu Lingyi felt happy, but still kept her head down and refused to speak.
Of course she wanted to enter the palace. The palace was the most powerful place in the world. Only by entering the palace could she get the power she wanted and take revenge on those she wanted to take revenge on.
————
She had always known that the emperor was ruthless. After he came to power, he killed more than a dozen of his brothers.
Not to mention the women and retainers in the prince's mansion, countless of them died tragically.
Although my father has the deep trust of Your Majesty, he has always been very respectful in front of Your Majesty and dares not overstep his authority.
My father once said, "Your Majesty trusts me because of the friendship we grew up together, but also because of my loyalty and humility. There are many more capable generals in this world than you, and I was able to reach this position because of your Majesty's support."
"In the court, eighty to ninety percent of those in high positions are your Majesty's confidants, and they are loyal to your Majesty their entire lives. Although some have shown second thoughts in recent years, they are all under your Majesty's control."
"Your Majesty has seen it all and has kept it in mind. If he hasn't attacked now, he's probably waiting for the right moment to strike."
"However, Your Majesty has never been a foolish monarch. You always remember what your loyal ministers have done for Your Majesty and will never easily hurt the hearts of your meritorious ministers. Therefore, our Xu family will always be loyal ministers and will only be loyal to Your Majesty."
Xu Lingyi was still young at that time, and she still remembered that not long after her father finished speaking, the young lady of the Lin family whom she knew never appeared at the banquet again, and the entire Lin family was executed.
Xu Lingyi understood that such an emperor attached great importance to the power in his hands and was unwilling to give up even a little bit.
She thought that if the emperor had normal fertility, he would have many sons, and if he had too many sons, they would no longer be valuable.
When his sons grew up, the emperor was getting old, and there was a conflict between father and son. If his power was damaged, he would turn the knife against his sons.
There are not too many emperors who killed their sons in history.
Fortunately, the emperor is now infertile and has no princes. In this way, the child she gives birth to will not be a threat to the emperor, but his life-saving straw, so that his kingdom will not be lost to others.
He would fully support her child.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to enter the palace?" Xu Lingyi asked with a sob.
The emperor lifted her chin, and her fair face was covered with traces of tears, making Xu Lingyi look pitiful.
"Your Majesty and I were brought together by accident. If Your Majesty dislikes me, I will not enter the palace to avoid causing Your Majesty any embarrassment."
Xu Lingyi's eyes were blurred with tears.
She would not express her opinion first. It was not a choice between two options. The emperor would choose first, and then she would choose.
The emperor was a little surprised that she still cared about him.
"Of course I like you. Young and beautiful women like you are rare. If you enter the palace, I will make you my concubine. I just think that you are too young to spend the rest of your life in the deep palace. After all, I am much older than you. If one day I am gone and you have no children, your life will be even more difficult. You are the daughter of the Xu family, and the Xu family has been loyal for generations, so I am willing to give you the choice."
He has always been tolerant and generous to his confidants.
Xu Lingyi shook her head. "I am already your Majesty's. I have given my body to you, so naturally I must enter the palace. A woman cannot serve two husbands. If your Majesty does not want me, then I can only kill myself."
Xu Lingyi's expression.
Her voice was soft and gentle, with the gentle beauty of a young girl, but the words that came out of her mouth were very loyal and strong, just like her father's style.
As expected of the daughter of the Xu family, General Xu is his trusted and trusted minister, and his daughter is also very good.
What Xu Lingyi said was exactly what he wanted to hear.
He did covet her beauty and figure and wanted to take her into his harem.
Now that she has voluntarily entered the palace, the emperor is happy.
He put his big hands on her face and wiped her tears.
"Silly girl, you are so beautiful. I like you very much. If you enter the palace, I will treat you well and will not let anyone bully you."
Xu Lingyi didn't believe what men said, not anything, let alone the fact that this man was the emperor.
However, Xu Lingyi's love for the emperor is not surprising.
Imagine that there is a young woman with stunning appearance and exquisite figure in your harem, who wouldn’t like her?
She knew that this face was her greatest weapon.
Among all the people in the emperor's harem, no one could compare to her.
But Xu Lingyi also knew that this kind of liking was just based on appearance, which was superficial and unreliable.
If one day her appearance declines, it is only a matter of time before she falls out of favor.
But she didn't have any anxiety about aging, and she felt inexplicably confident.
In fact, it is because the skin care water also acts as a body shaper.
In this world, she ages much slower than others.
Perhaps when Xu Lingyi is in her forties, she will still look like she is in her twenties or twenties.
Xu Lingyi felt it since she said she wanted to enter the palace.
There was a hint of possessiveness in the emperor's eyes as he looked at her, and at this moment he was looking at her completely as if she were a woman.
The emperor held Xu Lingyi in his arms. She leaned lightly against his chest, looking very docile and well-behaved.
The emperor bent down and kissed her hair.
"I originally thought that Your Majesty did not want me to enter the palace, so I was asked to choose. I was a mean-spirited person and misunderstood Your Majesty."
The emperor shook his head: "Nothing."
"What's your name? How old are you?"
The emperor did not know Xu Lingyi's maiden name, and he only had a vague idea of her age. He only knew that she should be of age.
"My name is Xu Lingyi, and I am fifteen years old."
