Chapter 18 The Emperor Cannot Have Love



Today, the sun was so bright that it was a little dazzling. Su Jingyao woke up slowly in the caress of the morning light.

When she opened her eyes, Jun Zechen had already gone to court.

Su Jingyao slowly stood up, stretched lazily, and then began to wash. After finishing washing, she changed into an apricot-colored dress. The dress was as soft as silk, as if it blended with her skin.

The lower body is matched with a blue-green skirt, and the hem of the skirt sways gently like rippling blue waves.

The gold-threaded belt was tightly tied around her slender waist, further highlighting her slender waist.

Miaoxia combed her hair into an ordinary palace bun, with all her hair piled up high, showing off her graceful shoulder and neck lines.

Su Jingyao has a delicate face like a painting and skin as white as snow. She is beautiful without any extra makeup.

"Master, how about some more jewelry for you? Doesn't it look a little plain?"

Miaoxia was holding an exquisite hairpin and was about to put it on for her when she asked softly.

"Once you put on this hairpin, you'll be almost done. There's no need to dress too extravagantly. There are many ladies in the palace at the tea banquet hosted by the Empress today. There's no need to compete with them for the limelight."

Su Jingyao raised her chin slightly and said calmly.

"The master is so beautiful. Even in such a refreshing outfit, she is like a fairy, smart and beautiful."

As Miaoxia spoke, she gently inserted the hairpin into Su Jingyao's bun, her eyes full of admiration and appreciation.

"You're just sweet-talking. Let's go to Qiluan Palace."

Although Su Jingyao was on the royal imperial list as a concubine, she was still a concubine. She could only attend banquets in the palace with the Crown Princess and there was no reason for her to go alone.

When Su Jingyao arrived at Qiluan Palace, Ling Yue had already dressed up.

She was wearing a golden palace dress today. The dress was luxurious and elegant, embroidered with exquisite patterns, and the gold and silver threads were very dazzling.

The jewelry on her head is dazzling and brilliant, showing her nobility.

"I pay my respects to my elder sister."

Su Jingyao leaned forward slightly and saluted Ling Yue.

"Concubine Su, please get up." Ling Yue's voice was light, without a trace of emotion.

Su Jingyao hadn't come to see Ling Yue in the past few days. This was the first time she saw her after the Flower Festival.

Now it seemed that Ling Yue had regarded her as an enemy, and even the way he addressed her had become unfamiliar.

But it’s okay. She really can’t bear to do anything to people who are too kind. Su Jingyao sneered in her heart.

"Sister, it was my fault last time. His Highness should have explained it to you. I hope you don't mind."

Su Jingyao frowned slightly, a look of guilt appeared on her face, she opened her red lips and spoke slowly.

"Concubine Su, it is your duty to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and bear children for him. I am the Crown Princess, and any children you give birth to in the future must call me their legitimate mother. I do not mind."

Ling Yue raised her chin with a hint of pride in her eyes. She straightened her body, as if showing her noble status to Su Jingyao.

"Yes, from now on my child will be my sister's child. I hope my sister will cherish him."

Su Jingyao smiled slightly, her smile was sincere and bright, without a trace of distracting thoughts. Her eyes fell softly on Ling Yue, full of kindness and obedience.

However, Su Jingyao smiled secretly in her heart. Ling Yue has grown up and his words have even started to change.

But isn't this what she wants to see?

As the first woman Jun Zechen fell in love with, Ling Yue's position in Jun Zechen's heart is difficult to completely erase.

If you want to get rid of Bai Yueguang, you can only turn her into mosquito blood.

Doesn't Ling Yue know that she is becoming more and more like the person Jun Zechen hates?

Jun Zechen hates the hypocritical women in the harem and women whose hearts are full of calculations. Ling Yue is calculating towards her and trying to please Jun Zechen.

It's so obvious!

What made Su Jingyao feel even more amused was that Ling Yue seemed to have completely lost herself. She could hardly see the free and wild Ling Yue anymore.

Her behavior is gradually eroding Jun Zechen's love for her. When she becomes almost the same as the women in the palace, Jun Zechen may get tired of seeing her.

Tsk.

Isn’t this the ending of their novel?

Ling Yue's heart was full of doubts and confusion. She really couldn't understand this woman, Su Jingyao.

Why does this woman always appear so perfect, so perfect that it seems unreal, without a single flaw?

If an ordinary woman had been mocked like this, she would have been so angry that she would have gnashed her teeth.

But Su Jingyao was different. She could even tell her with a smile that her child would be Ling Yue's in the future. This made Ling Yue feel that she was even more unfathomable.

Ling Yue's complicated gaze fell on Su Jingyao. She looked at Su Jingyao carefully, trying to find a flaw in her expression.

But Su Jingyao was wearing an elegant dress, her hair fell on her shoulders as softly as silk, and she always had a gentle smile on her face, making it difficult to guess her true thoughts.

Then, Ling Yue raised her chin slightly and said indifferently, "The tea banquet hosted by the Queen Mother is about to begin. Let's go."

"Yes, sister." Su Jingyao responded softly. Her voice was soft and melodious, as pleasant as the gurgling of running water.

She nodded slightly, still with that smile on her face, but there seemed to be a subtle deeper meaning in her smile.

She followed behind Ling Yue, her figure graceful and light as a willow swaying in the wind.

Imperial Garden.

The concubines from various palaces invited by the Queen have basically arrived one after another. They are all dignified and dressed in gorgeous palace costumes, showing off their noble status.
