"Only if Your Majesty likes me can I deal with whoever I want to deal with. My stepmother is the eldest princess, and my sister is a princess. They are both members of the royal family. If I don't get close to Your Majesty, I won't be able to do anything to them. As for Xie Huaixing, he is a strong candidate for the crown prince, and I can't just stand by and watch..."
"Don't say anymore." The emperor shook his head and smiled coldly.
"Now you have succeeded. I am of no use to you now, am I?"
"That's why you asked me to punish you. You're not even willing to lie to me or flatter me. Xu Lingyi, how could there be a woman like you in this world?"
How could he fall so deeply in love with a woman like her?
"Do you have any other questions?"
The emperor remained silent, his eyes cold and without a trace of emotion.
Xu Lingyi lowered her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I will move out of your palace tonight. You can go back and rest. You don't have to stay in Xuanzheng Palace all the time..."
"Where are you planning to move to?" the emperor interrupted her.
"It's up to your majesty to arrange."
Xu Lingyi lowered her head and said, "I can go to the cold palace or return to the Xu family. Your Majesty, it is freezing cold at night. Please go to the palace and rest early.
The emperor sneered, and threw out a few words through his teeth: "The sky is cold, how can my heart be as cold as it is?"
"I no longer know which one is the real you, and I don't know whether the love I have calculated for you is real or fake."
The emperor had fallen into extreme confusion and pain, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that his heart was broken at this moment.
Snow fell on Xu Lingyi's head and eyebrows, but she seemed not to feel the cold and her palms were clenched.
"Your Majesty, what you see now is the real me. I am selfish and despicable, scheming, and will do anything to achieve my goals. That's all me."
"Your Majesty will certainly not like me like this, and I am not worth your Majesty's discomfort."
"So, Your Majesty, please stop drinking. Drinking in the snow is harmful to your health."
"Do you still care about me?" The emperor stared at her without blinking, his voice extremely hoarse.
"I thought I was just a plaything, a tool to you. Are you happy that the emperor is being manipulated by you?"
Xu Lingyi shook her head.
Perhaps it was because he was drunk, or perhaps it was because the surging emotions were too strong, hitting his heart violently again and again, and his heart was so painful that it tightened.
The emperor leaned over and slammed his lips against hers. They were so close that they could hear each other's heartbeats, and the taste of alcohol spread as their breaths intertwined.
The sudden kiss was like a storm, rough and powerful, fierce and hot, and reckless.
Her mind went blank.
Shouldn't he have been sneering at her? Why would he have wanted to kiss her?
Xu Lingyi was startled for a moment, and after she came to her senses, she raised her face obediently to cater to him for the first time.
She put her arms around his neck.
Her reaction also stunned him, and then he was like a piece of ignited hay.
His big hands clasped the back of her head tightly, leaving her no chance of resistance. He kissed her all the way down, no longer clinging to one spot, and began to kiss her chin, her neck, her collarbone...
She felt weak all over and seemed to be unable to do anything but let him bully her.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty."
The emperor picked her up by the waist and strode into the hall.
Her clothes fell off one by one, and the drunken breath from above hit her face again and again.
"Your Majesty, there are... there are children..."
His eyes were bloodshot, and every move he made was filled with ferocity.
Xu Lingyi was a little scared and couldn't help pushing her away, but her strength was insignificant compared to his.
"You don't care about me at all, how can you care about me and your child?"
"I really want to kill you, so that we can die together."
He said and once again held her waist, madness in his eyes.
He had already lost control of his emotions. Although it was a cold winter day, there was a scorching heat surging inside the bed curtains.
Sweat soaked her hair on her forehead. She felt weak all over and could only reach out her hands to carefully protect her abdomen.
After two hours of nonsense, the emperor finally sobered up from his drunkenness.
He has a high alcohol tolerance and always thought he would not get drunk. He was indeed conscious last night, but the alcohol still made him impulsive.
Seeing her lying under him, pale and covered in sweat, the emperor's heart tightened and regret spread.
"What's wrong with you?" the emperor asked nervously.
"Your Majesty, my stomach... hurts a little."
Logically speaking, the child was conceived after she took the fertility pill, so nothing would happen.
But at this moment she felt a little uncomfortable in her abdomen.
"Call the imperial physician!" The emperor hurriedly stood up, put on a coat, and strode out.
Liu Jinzhong, who was outside, was instantly awakened. He kicked his apprentice and said, "Hurry to the Imperial Hospital!"
The Xuan Zheng Hall was brightly lit.
"What's going on?" The emperor's voice was extremely nervous, and his heart was about to jump out of his throat.
"The baby is a little disturbed. Your Majesty, don't worry. The heir is fine. It's just that the queen needs to stay in bed for a few days to recuperate."
The imperial physician was frightened by the emperor's gloomy expression and hurried to comfort him.
After hesitating for a moment, the imperial physician spoke again.
"Your Majesty, until the pregnancy is stable, you and the Empress should not have sex again, and the Empress should not have any extreme mood swings."
The emperor clenched his fists, regret welling up in his heart.
She was still pregnant with his child, how could he forget that?
"I understand."
The smell of medicine filled the room. When You Ran brought the boiled medicine, the emperor reached out to take it.
"I'm coming."
Her cheeks wrinkled because of the bitterness of the medicine.
He thought he would hate her, but seeing her in pain, the emperor couldn't be happy no matter what.
