The Tsundere System Chasing Wife

Chapter 16 Concubine Ning

The emperor, who had just finished his morning court session, hurried to the side hall. Looking at Li He and Qing Ling chatting and laughing, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his vision was indeed good. After more than ten years, it would surely be a good story.

"Your Majesty has arrived!!"

When Li He heard the voice, he hurriedly asked Qing Ling to salute. The emperor saw it and gestured, asking them to skip the salute.

"He'er, how do you like your breakfast?" the emperor asked.

"Very good, Father."

"So what does Qingling think?" The emperor looked at Qingling again and asked, his eyes fixed on the pastry crumbs still stuck on her cheeks.

"Your Majesty, it's delicious. Would you like a piece?" Qingling stared at the emperor, her eyes clear and without any impurities.

"Well, that's not necessary. Eat slowly, and when you're done I'll take you to see the new room I prepared for you, and see if you like it."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Li He, feeling somewhat ignored, smiled helplessly. It seemed that his father really wanted a little princess. His eyes were almost filled with love for Qing Ling.

The emperor arranged a palace for Li Hexin, so that Qingling could come and play in the future. There were flowers all around the palace, and there was a swing. The environment was beautiful and very pretty. It showed how much the emperor loved Li Hexin. There were also many toys and food in the palace.

"Qingling, do you like it? Over there is your room, and next to it is He'er's. I spent several days decorating it." The emperor had a proud expression on his face. Qingling really couldn't bear to look at it. Why did he arrange her room in the master bedroom? She was going home and didn't live here permanently.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I like it very much," Qing Ling said, and turned to look at Li He to see if he had any sad expression. Fortunately, his expression was still normal. It felt like she had stolen his favor. What was going on?

The emperor touched Qingling's head and asked her to take Li He to play nearby. He watched alone and felt proud in his heart from time to time.

In a short while, everyone in the palace knew that the emperor had brought someone else's daughter to the palace and doted on her. Not only did he decorate her room in advance, he also gave her many strange toys to play with. Even the previous two princes had never had any.

Qingling swung on the swing, feeling the breeze on her face, which was very comfortable. She had never played on it before. Li He pushed the swing and looked at Qingling with a smile.

"Brother He, that's enough. Let's take turns. I'll push you too. You try it too."

"No, Qingling, if you like, you can play for a while longer. You are too young to push me." Li He said with a doting tone.

No, she can, Qingling thought, she can't show her strength too obviously, it will look weird.

"Then when I grow up, I will push you again, okay?" Qingling said.

"it is good."

In the afternoon, the Queen and Concubine Zhang came with gifts. The Queen was dignified and beautiful. Concubine Zhang gave people the impression of a cold beauty. Although she was not very talkative and had a sharp tongue, she was kind-hearted. They both liked Qingling very much. Unlike the Emperor, they prepared two gifts at the same time, one for Qingling and one for Li He. The two gifts for Li He were both priceless skin-regenerating creams, while the Queen gave Qingling a pair of emerald green bracelets, and Concubine Zhang gave a lifelike hairpin.

Because the prince had so many scars on his body, he would be criticized to some extent, so they gave this thing to Li He.

"Thank you, Queen, and Concubine Zhang for your kindness." Li He said

"Thank you, Queen, and Concubine Zhang." Qing Ling continued

Seeing Li He's sensible appearance, the queen felt more guilty. If she could find out that Gao Guiren was pregnant, she would never let her die in the cold palace. Li He was almost beaten to death. She always thought that Gao Guiren's character would never harm her prince, but with all the evidence in front of her, she could do nothing but beg His Majesty to spare her death penalty and send her to the cold palace. Fortunately, Qingling saved Li He, and she still had a chance to atone for her sins.

"You're welcome, kid, you've suffered a lot. Forget the past and start over. Everything will be fine." The queen gently helped Li He up, patted his shoulder, and said gently.

"Yes, Third Prince, everything will be fine, and no one will bully you anymore." Concubine Zhang said.

"Yeah." Li He nodded, his eyes full of gratitude. Ever since Qing Ling brought them home, it was inconvenient for them to leave the palace due to their identities, so they sent people to deliver a lot of tonics.

At this time, the emperor came over and said softly,

"How about taking Qingling as our child bride? She is very cute and I like her very much."

"Your Majesty, Qingling is still too young. It's too early to talk about this now. What do you think, Concubine Zhang?" said the Queen.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is right. Your Majesty, please do not say this in front of Qingling. The little girl knows nothing. Don't let your Majesty scare her. Not to mention being a child bride, she may not even be able to enter the palace." Concubine Zhang said.

"You are all right. Give me two little princesses." The emperor whispered in their ears. Qingling looked at the suddenly blushing empress and Concubine Zhang, wondering what the emperor had said to them.

At this time, Concubine An also came to Li He's palace. She didn't like Li He very much. She felt uncomfortable even when she looked at him, as if she saw the former noble lady Gao. When she heard that the emperor had given Li He a brand new palace, her face was covered with several wrinkles. She originally wanted to foster Li He in her own palace so that it would be convenient to deal with him in the future. She calmed down in the palace for a long time before coming to find Li He. As soon as she came in, she found that the queen, Concubine Zhang and His Majesty were all here. They were really gathered together! She felt even more uncomfortable. But she really had no way to deal with the two of them. She couldn't fight them at all.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, and Concubine Zhang." Concubine Ning said

"It's Sister Ning who's here. Why are you here so polite? Come and sit down and have some tea." Concubine Zhang said to Concubine Ning. When she noticed that Concubine Ning had nothing in her hands, she started to make fun of her again.

"Hey, sister, why didn't you bring anything with you when you visited the Third Prince? That's too disrespectful to the Third Prince. What do you think, the Queen?"

The Queen and His Majesty looked at Concubine Ning with displeasure. Concubine Ning could only tightly hold her handkerchief and curse Concubine Zhang hundreds of times in her heart. She looked at a loss, panicking like a wounded deer, very pitiful. She looked at the Queen and His Majesty, hoping that one of them would give her a way out. But she was wrong.

"Concubine Ning, you did a bad job on this matter. You knew that this was the first time He'er met you, yet you handled it so hastily." The emperor said with a tone full of blame.

"You are hurting the child's heart so much, Concubine Ning. You should make it up to her later," said the Queen.

At this time, without waiting for Concubine Ning to reply, Qing Ling came up to them and said with her eyes wide open.

"Your Majesty, who is this aunt?"

This sentence directly made Concubine Ning vomit blood in anger. How could she be so old? She did not suppress her anger. The Queen and Concubine Zhang could not be touched. Couldn't she beat a little kid?

"Where did you come from, kid? Slap me if you keep talking nonsense!" After Concubine An said that, no one in the palace came forward. Only Achun, a personal maid in her palace, wanted to please Concubine An and was about to take action. However, Li He kicked her to the ground and pulled Qingling to protect her behind him.

"Don't touch Qingling!!"

"Brother, did Qingling do something wrong? Wuuuu... I'm sorry... wuuuu." After Qingling said this, the tears in her eyes kept flowing down her fair cheeks, looking so pitiful.

"Today's Best Acting Award Winner—Host-sama!!"

You’re welcome, you’re welcome, Qingling said to the system in her mind, but her tears never stopped.

"An Qing!! Take your people and get out of Linghe Palace immediately!" the emperor roared, and the roar frightened Concubine Ning so much that she stood there in a daze. She turned around and saw Concubine Zhang and the Queen went straight forward to comfort the child, and the Queen even held her in her arms to comfort her.

Who is this child? It's so abominable!!!

"Your Majesty... I'm sorry... I..." Concubine An wanted to say something, but was frightened by the emperor's cold look. She quickly said goodbye and ran away with her people.

After Concubine An left, the emperor reached out to Qingling, wanting to hold her in his arms to comfort her. But Qingling didn't come over, and instead cried even harder.

"Qingling, don't cry. It's my fault. I won't let that aunt scare you next time, okay?"

Qingling then turned around to look at the emperor and said something aggrieved.

"really?"

"Really? Qingling, stop crying. I'll have someone prepare a lot of delicious food for you later, okay?"

"Ah."

Seeing Qingling stopped crying, the emperor was relieved. His future daughter-in-law was almost scared away by Concubine Ning. Fortunately, she was coaxed back!
