Song Yunxi was obviously stunned when she saw Emperor Qinglong, as if he was recalling who Concubine Tong was.

No wonder, as Concubine Shen was the favorite in the harem, even the Queen found it difficult to see Emperor Qinglong, not to mention Concubine Tong who had little sense of existence and had always been hiding in her own palace, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures.

If I'm not mistaken, Emperor Qinglong hasn't been to Concubine Tong's palace for at least three to five years, and she might not even remember what she looks like now.

[Look at this old man's heartless look! The Tong family spent all their wealth to help you secure the throne. Even if you don't like Concubine Tong, you at least did enough to save her face. But you did such a heartless thing, it's so disgusting! ]

Emperor Qinglong: He was scolded again, wasn't he? And the scolding was quite harsh.

[My husband has no conscience, my son is a fool, my parents are not supportive, and I am a weak person. I am just a piece of trash in the palace. ]

[But then again, if she hadn't been so useless and afraid of trouble that she had stayed in her palace, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures, she probably wouldn't have lived to this day.]

Song Yunxi saw Concubine Tong floating over like a gust of wind. She looked so weak and pitiful, as if she would be blown into the lake at any time.

"emperor……"

Concubine Tong seemed to have exhausted all her energy just to say one word, and even her voice was light and fluttering: "Your Majesty, Ling'er...he was just confused for a moment..."

Even though he had no feelings for Concubine Tong and was a complete stranger to her, Emperor Qinglong still felt sorry for her when he saw how frail she was.

He helped her up and said, "The third child is not young anymore. If he is not educated, he will cause bigger trouble in the future. Then even I won't be able to protect him."

After all, he is his own son, and he cannot just watch him being used by people with ulterior motives.

Concubine Tong's face was full of tears: "But...but I'm afraid he can't bear it."

Emperor Qinglong was not a patient man to begin with, and what was more, he was so unfamiliar and distant with Concubine Tong. He had already explained everything to her, and he did not have the patience to continue coaxing her.

Seeing that he was about to reprimand her impatiently, Ye Xuanqi said first: "Don't worry, Concubine Tong. Maybe Third Brother will come to his senses after this incident."

Others might not understand, but Tong Fei understood the meaning of Ye Xuanqi's words.

She had known for a long time that her son liked his future sister-in-law.

Over the years, she has tried everything, including crying, making a fuss, and going on a hunger strike, but he just wouldn't change his mind and was still deeply in love with Song Muxue.

This is also the reason why she has become more and more cautious in recent years.

Before, when Ye Xuanqi and Song Muxue broke off their engagement, she thought her son had done something immoral and fainted out of shock.

Fortunately, she later learned that Song Muxue and Shen Zhikang were involved, and the emperor even ordered Song Muxue to become a concubine in the Shen family. Only then did she feel relieved.

But before she could rest assured for long, her son came to her and told her that he wanted to ask for permission to marry Song Muxue openly.

If she hadn't been so angry that she fainted, my son would have gone to Chongzheng Hall to ask for permission long ago.

Just when she felt better today, someone came to report that her son had humiliated Song Yunxi for Song Muxue again.

This son really thinks her life is too long!

Who was Song Yunxi? Not to mention that even Concubine Shen and the Shen family didn't dare to be her enemy openly, even the emperor had to give in to her, and he dared to humiliate her.

She really didn't want to care about it anymore, but she only had this one son, and the Tong family had relied on him for their survival in recent years. No matter what the reason was, she couldn't ignore it.

She had made up her mind on the way here that she would save her son's life even if it meant exchanging one life for another.

But after hearing what Ye Xuanqi said, she calmed down. It was just a beating. As long as he didn't die or become disabled, what was the big deal? If this beating made him completely give up his feelings for Song Muxue, then she hoped to beat him harder so that he would give up more completely.

Seeing that she had finally calmed down, Ye Xuanqi stopped talking and said no more.

After Concubine Tong calmed down, her mind became more flexible. She bowed to Emperor Qinglong and said, "Ling'er is ignorant. It is his blessing to be taught by the emperor."

Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Concubine Tong's expression looked much better.

[As expected of the Tong family's legitimate daughter, although she is a little weak and lovesick, and has been trapped in the harem for so many years that her brain is not very sharp, her ability to respond at critical moments is still outstanding.]

Who?

Concubine Tong looked around in panic, who was talking just now?

[Look at Concubine Tong, this is a pitiful, weak and helpless beauty. She is a love-minded beauty who has no scheming and waits for her lover all day long. ]

[Compared to her, the Concubine Shen that you hold in your heart is nothing, okay? Compared to the truly fragile Concubine Tong, the pretentious and frail Concubine Shen is nothing but an ugly imitation.]

Emperor Qinglong: Just scold me, why are you being so vulgar?

Looking at Concubine Tong again, her eyes and brows showed that of a weak and sickly beauty. Concubine Shen was indeed far inferior to her in charm.

[Alas, the old emperor has been blind for a long time. With his vision, he is only worthy of Concubine Shen's kind.]

Song Yunxi looked at Concubine Tong unscrupulously, and was reluctant to take his eyes off her.

She once imagined herself to be a beautiful and lovable sickly woman, but unfortunately, she could only carry a bucket of water to the fifth floor, split a watermelon with one hand, unscrew the cap of a water bottle, and break an apple in half... In short, she was extremely healthy, but the sheep were all eating and sleeping.

So don’t even talk about being weak. She doesn’t even deserve the shadow of being weak.

[But is this person so beautiful that God didn't give her a brain? This Concubine Tong is so beautiful, rich, and knows how to make money. She can like any man she wants. Why does she have to like the old emperor, a blind man? ]

Emperor Qinglong: Have you forgotten your face that brought disaster to the country and the people?

The smile in Ye Xuanqi's eyes spread all the way to the corners of his lips. Why does he always forget that he is also a beauty?

After the panic, Concubine Tong analyzed that this was Song Yunxi's voice.

So... I heard Song Yunxi's inner voice?

When she was still a girl, she had only heard about this strange thing from people on the sea when she went out to sea with her father and brothers. She had never expected to experience it herself.

After all, Chu Hai was knowledgeable and experienced, and Tong Fei quickly calmed down and didn't think this was incredible.

But Song Yunxi's inner thoughts made her certain that her son had been misled.

As for who that person is, it goes without saying.

Even after just listening to a few words of Song Yunxi's thoughts, Concubine Tong dared to assert that she was a frank and upright woman, rather than a woman full of conspiracy and calculation.

It turned out that only a person as accomplished as Song Wentian could raise such a girl with extraordinary spiritual energy.

Song Muxue... humph, it wasn't that she meant to belittle him, but his worldly calculations and ambitions were all written clearly in his eyes.
