After Li Xu returned home that day, he was still thinking about Xu Lingyi.
His staff noticed that he was absent-minded and thought that something had happened in the palace.
I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Is everything going well for you today?" the staff asked.
Li Xu was still in a trance at this moment.
"Your Highness?" the staff member was puzzled. "What's wrong with you?"
Li Xu finally came back to his senses. He lowered his voice, but there was an interest in his tone that he himself did not realize: "Sir, do you know the youngest daughter of the Xu family?"
The staff nodded: "It's the Defei who entered the palace."
The Xu family holds military power. If the master can get the support of the Xu family, then the road to power will be much smoother.
It's a pity that the current emperor is very suspicious and has a strong desire to control power. If they take the initiative to get involved with the Xu family, it will inevitably make His Majesty wary, which will be detrimental to their ascension to the throne.
Unless the Xu family takes the initiative and volunteers.
"The Xu family's daughter is truly stunning!" Li Xu couldn't help but sigh. He was still recalling Xu's face in his mind: "I have never seen a woman as beautiful as this. After seeing the Xu family's daughter, I finally understand the saying that beauty is not real."
Li Xu thought of Xu's small face, which was the size of a palm.
Her skin was so fair, and it looked even whiter than snow under the sunlight, and her whole body was as dazzling as if it were glowing.
With the Xu family girl around, the rest of His Majesty's concubines are like ugly women.
"She is still young, only fifteen this year, a few years younger than me, but her figure doesn't look childish, but rather exquisite and graceful. She entered the palace to serve His Majesty at such a young age. Your Majesty is now old and will wait for me in the future... then Xu Shi will come."
Li Xu didn't say anything else, but his words were full of greed and desire for Xu.
The staff member was shocked: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
The staff member immediately lowered his voice and said, "The Xu family girl is now the Consort De, His Majesty's consort. According to seniority, she should be the prince's elder. Even if Xu is as beautiful as a fairy, the prince should not covet her."
The staff didn't know how beautiful the Xu girl was, but they had heard of her beauty before. They didn't expect that the prince would fall in love with Xu after only meeting her once.
This woman is truly a beauty who brings disaster, a reincarnation of Daji. I don’t know how the Xu family raised her.
"I know." Li Xu felt a little regretful. Why couldn't a woman like Xu be his?
"This prince knows what he wants. Why is it that His Majesty, though so much older than Xu, can be her father, yet still possesses her? Because he is His Majesty, the ruler of the world, and can obtain anything he desires. If I also desire Xu, or a beauty like her, I can only climb to that supreme position."
The staff member breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that his master would be blinded by lust.
"Master, it's good that you can think this way. No matter how beautiful Xu is, she is just a woman. To you, she can only be a plaything for your amusement. When you achieve your great cause in the future, what kind of woman can't you get?"
After the aide finished speaking, he still felt uneasy.
"In the future, when you meet Xu in the palace, you must restrain yourself and not reveal anything. If His Majesty notices and becomes wary..."
Li Xu nodded, he knew that what his staff said was absolutely right.
But that night, he still dreamed of Xu. He had an erotic dream in which Xu seduced him.
Reason told him that before he successfully ascended the throne, he must not make a single wrong step, and certainly not ruin his future because of a woman.
But when Xu came close to him and crawled in front of him, his breathing became a little rapid when he saw her pretty and beautiful face.
He even lost his mind for a rare moment.
He cursed her with a cold face: "Bitch, how can you be so unfaithful to your husband?"
After he said this, Xu looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Her eyes were moist, and when she looked at him with tears in her eyes, she looked particularly pitiful and sympathetic.
His hard heart softened unconsciously at this moment.
How could he scold such a beautiful woman?
But this is not his fault. If anyone is to blame, it is Xu who has no sense of shame or propriety and tried every possible means to seduce him.
"Does His Majesty know of your actions? If His Majesty knew... you should be put to death in a pig cage."
Before he could finish his words, Xu stood up from his legs, put her arms around his neck and kissed him.
"I don't like Your Majesty, I only like Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please grant me your wish and let me be yours."
Xu was so infatuated with him and only wanted his pity and favor.
And he really liked Xu's appearance, so in his dream he followed Xu's wishes and hugged her.
The dream was so beautiful that when Li Xu woke up, he was still immersed in it and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Take a shower and change your clothes!" Li Xu shouted outside. After realizing that all this was a dream, he became even more angry.
Sooner or later, he will take over the Xu family.
It is better to commit yourself to him than to that old man, the emperor.

In the harem.
"Are you going to deal with her?"
Concubine Li suddenly looked up, with a light in her eyes.
She was previously Li Guipin, which was obviously a high-ranking concubine in the harem. In addition, she relied on the imperial concubine, so she lived a pretty good life in the harem.
Although she had no princes or princesses by her side, His Majesty often came to her palace, which gave her some comfort.
But ever since Xu Lingyi entered the palace, His Majesty has only had Xu Lingyi in his eyes and heart.
In His Majesty's heart, Xu Lingyi is now the best, and people like them have no status at all in His Majesty's heart.
"You should have dealt with her long ago. That bitch thought that just because she was favored by His Majesty, she could do whatever she wanted, even over you and the princess."
Concubine Li had long hated Xu Lingyi, and she could not bear the humiliation of being demoted.
In fact, this humiliation was clearly inflicted by herself and His Majesty, but she did not hate His Majesty at all, but only hated Xu Lingyi.
"I have tolerated her for a long time. This time I came to you and hope to get your help."
Concubine Li nodded. She had done this kind of thing many times. The maids around her had told her that the imperial concubine had someone to rely on, but she didn't.
Although she had some concerns in her heart, she still planned to take action this time.
As long as she can get revenge on that bitch Xu Lingyi, she is willing to do anything.
"Your Highness, what are you going to do?"
The imperial concubine looked at her and lowered her voice: "What does your majesty like most about Xu?"
"That face." Li Guiren did not hesitate. Even though she hated Xu Lingyi, she had to admit that she was indeed beautiful. It was indeed with this face that she bewitched His Majesty.
"So, just destroy her face. This vixen has nothing to lose without it. If she's disfigured, His Majesty will be furious and heartbroken at first, but over time, he'll definitely stop favoring her. As her beauty fades and her love wanes, Xu won't be a threat anymore. Just wait a while longer until she's completely out of favor. That'll be her death."
Concubine Li was excited when she heard this.
She couldn't wait to see what happened to that bitch.
