Chapter 49 I can force you right now!
Xie Junlin had already seen her shock and panic.
Xie Junlin's dark eyes suddenly lit up, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground at this moment.
He bent down slightly and looked into Shen Yuanwei's eyes. "It is true. Miss Yuanwei, you can indeed give birth to my child—"
Shen Yuanwei was extremely upset.
It was her own fault for feeling too guilty, and also the man's fault for being so sinister and cunning. The words that had been laid out before had already disrupted her rhythm, which was why she revealed her emotions so easily.
But it was too early for the emperor to rejoice.
So what if she can give birth to a child for this man? Can't she wait a few years before having another child?
Xiao Lingzhao is now young and handsome, and is at an age that is perfect for love. She must cherish Xiao Lingzhao first!
Was she going to leave the young Xiao Lingzhao and waste her youth with the old emperor, and then go find Xiao Lingzhao in a few years when he was no longer young and handsome?
Doesn't that mean she missed out on all the good things?
She calmed herself down and shook her head in denial, "I don't know what the emperor is talking about. Anyone who can give birth to your own flesh and blood should be your concubine. What does this have to do with me? I don't..."
Xie Junlin looked at her stubbornly and interrupted her, "You can. You already know in your heart that you can give birth to my own flesh and blood, so you specifically asked me yesterday, if someone can cure my disease and let me have a child, will I reward that person with the title of prince--"
Shen Yuanwei was panicking and tried desperately to deny it. "No, Your Majesty, you misunderstood. I wasn't asking for information for myself. I was trying to find a famous doctor for Your Majesty. It has nothing to do with me! I am Xiao Lingzhao's wife. If I were to give birth, it would be Lingzhao's child. How could I give birth to your child?"
Xie Junlin hummed.
"Yes, you are Ling Zhao's wife, so I came to talk to you about how to give birth to my child with you in an open and aboveboard manner—"
“…”
Shen Yuanwei looked at Xie Junlin in disbelief.
Is this man crazy?
How could he say something so crazy with such a calm expression?
She really wanted to kneel down to this man!
Xie Junlin's eyes were filled with smiles. He asked Shen Yuanwei softly, "Tell me, did you divorce Ling Zhao on your own, or did I force you into the palace, huh?"
Shen Yuanwei's heart was about to jump out of her throat!
Why is this happening!
Why was Xie Junlin so sure that she could give birth to this child of a man without an heir? What made this man dare to test her with such confidence?
It can’t be…
Is that ball of light doing bad things?
Shen Yuanwei's heart skipped a beat.
She pinched her fingers and stared into Xie Junlin's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I don't know why you suddenly asked me such a ridiculous question. I just met you yesterday. Why did you insist that I can give birth to your child? There must be a reason, right?"
Xie Junlin did not hide anything.
He said, "When you appeared before me in your wedding dress, I saw a strange vision. I vaguely saw clouds surging behind you, and a child whose appearance I couldn't see clearly ran out of the clouds and ran towards you, and suddenly turned around and called me father sweetly..."
Shen Yuanwei's guess came true.
Her eyes were wide open.
It’s over. Who else could it be but that mysterious ball of light that could produce such a strange phenomenon?
But why did that ball of light want to harm her?
She just wanted to live a good life with Xiao Lingzhao for a few years before considering giving birth to a child for the heirless emperor. This request was not too much, right? Why did Guangtuan let the emperor find out? Now, how could she and Xiao Lingzhao continue to live?
Shen Yuanwei gritted her teeth and calmed herself down, then told Xie Junlin with a cold face, "Your Majesty, you must be under too much pressure from state affairs to have such hallucinations. You can't take this kind of thing seriously."
Xie Junlin was not in a hurry and continued to talk about his dream.
"You said this was my imagination, but did you know that I had the same dream again last night? In the dream, you gave birth to a cute little prince for me. Until now, the dream still exists clearly in my mind."
Shen Yuanwei cursed the ball of light secretly.
First there was a strange vision, and then a dream. Was this ball of light trying to kill her?
Shen Yuanwei denied everything.
"Your Majesty, you dream about what you think about during the day. You must want a child so much that you have such an absurd dream that you even covet my wife. But dreams should not be taken seriously. You cannot take away the wife of the general who is loyal to you just because of an absurd dream. This will damage your wisdom--"
Xie Junlin expected that Shen Yuanwei would deny it to the end.
He was not impatient or angry.
He lowered his head close to Shen Yuanwei's ear and told her with a smile.
"It's useless for you to deny it. I don't want to argue with you. If I want to verify it, it's actually very simple. I just need to lock you up in the palace for two months and pamper you every night. I will know if you can conceive a dragon heir after one try."
Shen Yuanwei was horrified when she heard this.
She gritted her teeth and said coldly, "Your Majesty, you can't be so absurd!"
Xie Junlin looked into her eyes, his voice gentle, his domineering voice undiminished, "Can't? As long as I want, there is nothing I can't do."
He raised his hand and pointed slowly at the door of the room.
"I could have sent Ling Zhao away and asked him to wait outside the courtyard, and then pushed open his door to see his wife. Then, I could have asked the Dragon Scale Guards to send him away, pushed you onto the couch, and raped you."
"I can even have the Dragon Scale Guards capture Ling Zhao, make him kneel in the courtyard, put a knife to his neck, and use his life to force you to obey me."
"No matter how powerful he is, he cannot escape if he is surrounded by enemies. And no matter how much you hate me, you cannot resist the emperor's power—"
He stared into Shen Yuanwei's eyes.
"Miss Yuan Wei, for an emperor, there is nothing he cannot do. As long as I want to be a beast, I have plenty of ways to deal with you and your husband."
Shen Yuanwei didn't expect that she would hear such despicable words from the emperor's mouth!
She had no respect for the emperor to begin with, and now being threatened by the emperor, she raised her hand and wanted to slap this shameless man to death!
Xie Junlin looked at her raising her hand angrily, and calmly raised his hand to stop her.
Holding her wrist, Xie Junlin still had a smile in his eyes.
"Miss Yuan Wei, there is no need to be so angry. I can do this, but it doesn't mean I will do it. I can use countless ways to hurt you and Ling Zhao to achieve my goal, but I don't want to treat you like this."
"At least, not now."
"I came to you today just to tell you that I already know your secret. Since you are the only one in the world who can give birth to my child, then I must have you. I must ask you for this child."
"As for whether it's a gentle request between two of us, or I shamelessly force you to do it, the choice is yours."
"I am not in despair yet. I still have a lot of patience. I can be a gentleman, respect you and Ling Zhao, and slowly plan in a way that will not hurt you two. But if one day I am forced into a dead end by those people from the royal family and the civil and military officials, my own life will be tormented, and I am afraid I will not be able to follow the gentleman's way..."
"Miss Yuan Wei, listen carefully. I am still a wise ruler now, but if pushed to the limit, I can become the shameless and incompetent ruler, the tyrant that everyone despises. Do you understand?"
“…”
Shen Yuanwei stared at Xie Junlin.
These words were clearly spoken very gently, but they made her spine tingle.
The emperor was discussing things with her, but he was also forcing her.
If she knows what's good for her, it's good for me and everyone else. If she doesn't, then the emperor will murder Xiao Lingzhao and then force her...
