Chapter 3 The Middle-Aged Emperor Without Children



Thinking of the relatives who died tragically in her previous life, Xu Lingyi felt even more hatred in her heart.

She thought that men might not be reliable, but the children she gave birth to would definitely be.

The situation is worse, she just needs to wait until her child ascends the throne.

If the situation is better, she might be able to use the fake pregnancy to get rid of her enemy, Princess Minghua.

"Miss, are you awake?"

Xu Lingyi was making plans in her mind when her personal maid called her from outside.

Xu Lingyi had two personal maids, one named Chunhua and the other named Qiushi.

They were all found by her mother and grew up with her. Logically, they should have a deep affection for each other, but Qiushi betrayed her.

"Come in."

Xu Lingyi responded.

"Miss, Madam is calling you over. She said she's going to the temple to burn incense tomorrow."

The person who came was Qiushi.

Xu Lingyi suppressed her emotions. She once regarded Qiushi as her confidante and sister, but she threw herself into Li Xu's arms and was bewitched by his sweet words.

Li Xu said he would grant her a position, so she turned around and harmed her master.

A person who can be swayed by interests like this is not a useful person. The one who compares to her is Chunhua.

Chunhua never betrayed her until his death.

"What time is it now?"

In fact, for some reason, when Xu Lingyi woke up, she knew that she was reborn, and she was very sure that she could start over again.

But she didn't know at which time point she was reborn. Xu Lingyi felt a little strange, maybe it was intuition, she thought.

"Miss, it's afternoon now. Maybe you are confused because of your sleep." Qiushi said with a smile.

Xu Lingyi felt dazzling when she saw her smile. When she liked her before, she thought Qiushi was lively and clever, with a smile always on her face, which made her feel good just by looking at her.

But now that she hated her, everything she said and did seemed hateful in her eyes.

After her rebirth, she will repay those who have done her a favor, and she will also take revenge on those who have a grudge against her without mercy.

This is her principle, and she has already thought about how to deal with Qiushi.

In fact, the Xu family is still prosperous now, and it is easy for her to deal with a little girl, but she doesn't want to let her get away with it so easily. Of course, she must make the most of such a traitor.

"You go out first." Xu Lingyi said nothing more, "Call Chunhua in."

"Miss." Chunhua came quickly.

She seemed to have always been like this. Whenever she called Chunhua, she always arrived in time.

Compared with Qiushi, Chunhua is calmer and more taciturn, and has a lower presence.

"What year is it now?" Xu Lingyi asked her directly.

Chunhua was a little surprised, but she just thought that the young lady was confused in her sleep and forgot the time.

This kind of thing happens very often. For example, the lady in the mansion doesn't have a good memory and sometimes asks about the time.

"It is now the sixteenth year of Jianping."

Xu Lingyi understood clearly that the emperor ascended the throne at the age of twenty and had been in power for a total of sixteen years, so the emperor was now thirty-six years old.

In the previous life, the emperor died in the 26th year of Jianping, and now there are still ten years before Li Xu ascends the throne.

He has not been adopted yet and is still in competition with several relatives in the royal family.

Even in the 26th year of Jianping, the emperor was still in good health.

The emperor's death was caused by an accident.

Although Li Xu became the crown prince, the power was still firmly in the hands of the emperor. At that time, Li Xu was a very incompetent crown prince and had no power.

The emperor also hated factionalism, and she tried hard to help him.

The emperor felt guilty towards the Xu family and did not care about what she did. In fact, in the eyes of the emperor, these were just minor incidents.

When the emperor was climbing Mount Tai, he was crushed by a huge rock that slipped down and died on the spot.

At first she also thought it was Li Xudong's doing, but in the end it was indeed an accident.

She still remembered how ecstatic Li Xu and she were at that time.

She thought she would get what she wanted and avenge her mother and the others, but soon after Li Xu came to power, the first person he targeted was the Xu family.

She courted disaster and ended up harming the Xu family.

She decided that she would never let anything happen to the Xu family again in this life.

She wanted to see how Li Xu could ascend to the throne smoothly without their family's support.

————

Xu Lingyi relaxed her mood, not wanting her family to notice anything unusual.

When she was able to control her emotions, the first thing she wanted to do was to see her mother and sisters-in-law.

"Mother."

When she actually saw her mother standing in front of her alive, Xu Lingyi still couldn't control her emotions. She thought she had prepared herself mentally and would not let her family worry.

"What's wrong with Yi'er?" Mrs. Xu quickly hugged Xu Lingyi, patted her back, and comforted her gently.

"Why are you crying suddenly? Who made you sad? Talk to mother."

The mother was a little anxious. She was a loving mother and had always been sincere and caring towards her children.

Xu Lingyi shook her head with tears in her eyes.

She couldn't tell her mother that she was reborn, nor could she tell her mother what happened in her previous life.

It is enough for her to bear the pain alone, why involve her mother?

"I just had a bad dream, a bit of a nightmare, and it made my mother worried."

Xu Lingyi found an excuse.

"How old are you?"

Mrs. Xu said this while gently patting her back with her hand, and there was no hint of blame in her words.

"We are going to the temple to burn incense tomorrow. I will donate more and ask the Bodhisattva to bless my son, so that he will be free from disasters and live a happy and peaceful life."
