Chapter 661: Betting or Not

This was the first time Helian Yue had done such a ridiculous thing in broad daylight since he ascended the throne.

Even Si Linglong didn't expect that A Yue could have such an unruly side.

As a result, the matters concerning the Si family and Prince Li, which were originally on his mind, were completely forgotten.

Anyway, A Yue has arranged people, so Si Jinyu will not be in danger.

Si Linglong suddenly became too lazy to think about what her "mission" was after entering the palace.

Helian Yue has been nervous these past few days because of her matter. Even with Yuan Zun's assurance, he still can't feel at ease.

It was not until he slept in the outer room last night and confirmed that even though the system had an attack, Si Linglong did not suffer any pain under the protection of Xixi that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After I calmed down, I couldn't help but want to hug her.

If you don't hug your baby during the day, you won't have the chance at night.

In the next few nights, she could only sleep with the old lady.

Thinking of this, Helian Yue was unwilling to miss this rare time together.

His heart was filled with impulses again, and Helian Yue couldn't help but hug the person in his arms a little tighter. He leaned over, pressed his thin lips against her delicate and fair cheek, and kissed her gently.

"Your Highness, do you still want to escape?"

Si Linglong felt itchy from his kiss, and feeling the urge burning again under the man, she immediately begged for mercy.

[I won’t run away anymore. I don’t want to be a princess anymore.]

If she doesn't stop doing this in broad daylight, she will really become a seductive concubine who seduces the emperor and makes him lose focus on state affairs.

Helian Yue looked at her begging for mercy, raised his eyebrows, and finally gave in.

"Well, I won't be a princess anymore."

Si Linglong breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to push him again, but she couldn't move him.

Si Linglong raised her eyes and saw the handsome man above her head. He chuckled softly, with a somewhat bewitching tone, and said to her softly,

"This time, you are just my beloved concubine."

My beloved, sleeping with me in bed is the rule.

Her lips were sealed again and when Si Linglong was pulled into the vortex again, she had only one thought in her mind.

【Whatever, do whatever you want. 】

…

After that absurd day, Si Linglong continued her life as usual, but the system did not appear again until the seven-day punishment stipulated by the system was over.

Bai Qianqian doesn't know that Xiang Tian has been successfully instigated to rebel, and is still "recuperating" in Lianrui Palace.

This time she was really recuperating from an illness. Due to Helian Yue's special care, Bai Qianqian's original fake illness turned into a real illness. She couldn't get out of bed for nearly half a month, so naturally she had no time to pay attention to the situation in Si Linglong Palace.

As for Si Jinyu, perhaps the people sent by Helian Yue took effect, or perhaps Prince Li was still wary of him, but since that day of tracking, Si Jinyu and the Si family have been fine, as calm as if they had never had anything to do with Prince Li.

Si Linglong didn't want to reveal the fact that she was not the real Si Linglong, so naturally she couldn't ask directly. She could only wait for A Yue's secret guards to find out the news.

This exploration took place at the end of the year.

On New Year's Eve, a palace banquet was held in the palace, and all clan members and officials were invited to the banquet.

Because the Empress Dowager returned to the palace this year, the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace was more lively than last year.

Although the Central Palace was without a master, the Queen Mother still led the two concubines Si Linglong and Gu Qingquan to arrange all matters for New Year's Eve.

As for why there are two instead of three, it is naturally because the remaining one is still sick.

"The Emperor lifted the ban on Lianrui Palace not long ago, but it is said that Concubine Lian is too ill to see anyone, so I'm afraid she won't be able to attend the palace banquet."

Concubine Li came to visit on the day Si Linglong lifted the ban on Yuxiu Palace.

After all, the two concubines in the palace had a fight, and were both imprisoned afterwards. The concubines in the harem were already in an uproar.

But no news could be found out, and Concubine Li was extremely curious.

Especially since both sides were under confinement, but one was truly confined, and the other was confined with the emperor. The difference is huge.

As soon as the door of Yuxiu Palace opened, people came in. Later, when the Queen Mother assigned part of the arrangements for the New Year's Eve palace banquet to Si Linglong, Concubine Li simply stepped behind to lend a hand.

Now that he had some free time, he told her about Bai Qianqian's situation while cracking melon seeds.

She had finally found this out.

Si Linglong was listening on the opposite side, with a little cat still lying on her lap. Perhaps she was used to it, so she stroked its fur from time to time.

When it comes to Bai Qianqian's situation, Si Linglong knows much more than Li Guipin, but she won't say it.

Just hearing her talk about this, I couldn't help but smile with narrowed eyes, and there was a little bit of determination in my tone.

"Although she is ill, she is not unable to see anyone. I think Concubine Lian will definitely attend the palace banquet on New Year's Eve."

After all, Helian Tuo would also enter the palace that day.

Bai Qianqian would never miss such an opportunity to meet him and express her love for him.

Seeing her firm attitude, Li Guipin immediately became interested. She put down the melon seeds and clapped her hands quickly, then took out ten taels of gold from her purse and slammed it on the table.

"Bet on me! I bet she can't join."

Si Linglong took a look at the gold, and then at Li Guipin's excited look. Although she didn't know why she had developed such an "interest" after not seeing her for a while, but -

"I bet on it."

As Si Linglong spoke, she also snapped down a piece of gold.

Xue Sha, who was nibbling on a snack nearby, saw what was happening and quickly ran over. He stretched out his chubby little hands and took the two pieces of gold into his arms, saying in a loud and milky voice.

"I'll do it. I'll be the banker."

Li Guipin was stunned at first, then turned her head in disbelief and looked at Si Linglong with a reproachful look, which clearly said -

[What kind of child did you raise? A child this young knows how to be the banker in gambling. This is so irresponsible! ]

Si Linglong met Li Guipin's slightly reproachful gaze, and her lips twitched slightly. She just looked back at her righteously.

[You are not qualified to say that! ]

Don't you see who started the gambling game in front of the children first?

Xue Sha didn't notice the eye contact between the two people. She just put the two gold ingots into her small purse. She was as cute as a fat little fox who had successfully stolen food.
