Who would have imagined that when he woke up, he would not only be alone on the bed, but also an unknown creature with long hair! ?

Ling Xiao really experienced it today, and it scared him so much that he almost fell off the bed, but he had good reflexes, and before turning over, he wittily pulled out the sword beside the bed, and laid it across the bed. the neck of something.

The thing sat up slowly, as if it had just woken up, it... no, it should be her, it lifted the hair that was stuck to its face due to the bad sleeping position, revealing a face that was still in a state of confusion comely face.

Ling Xiao let out a long breath, what, it turned out to be a time-traveling girl.He put the sword back into the scabbard, and was about to go to the table to drink some water. After a false alarm, he always wanted to suppress the shock.

As soon as Ling Xiao poured the water, he heard a terrified cry from behind. The cry was so sudden and violent that it even gave people the illusion that the house shook three times.Fortunately, he had expected it, otherwise he would not have been scared the last time.

Although the cry didn't scare him, it did startled Guard Ye who was outside.

Guard Ye rushed in hastily. When he saw the woman on the bed, his iceberg face that had never changed for thousands of years suddenly shattered, showing a terrifying expression. Almost subconsciously, he drew out his sword and was about to chop it off.

"Wait." Seeing that the sword was about to hit the woman, Ling Xiao hurriedly said, "Just send her out of the palace."

Guard Ye turned his head slowly, Ling Xiao was taken aback by the expression on his face, it was a distorted face as if an evil spirit had come out of a cage.Fortunately, that expression disappeared in a flash and did not affect him, but the time-traveling girl seemed to have been frightened stupid. I saw her staring at her big eyes that had never been closed since she was awake. Rolling his eyes, he passed out directly.

"Send her out of the palace." Ling Xiao emphasized again, although he didn't understand why Ye Shiwei was so hostile to the time-traveling woman, but Ling Xiao knew that he would not resist his order.

"Yes" Ye Shiwei bowed slightly, his face still gloomy

When Ye Shiwei dragged the time-traveling girl past Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao asked softly, "Ye Fuming, what's wrong with you?"

Only silence answered him.

"So, what happened to Ye Fuming?" After the court ceremony, Ling Xiao directly dragged Han Shangqing to the secret room for negotiation.To his surprise, after listening to his narration, Han Shangqing also had a gloomy expression, as if his wife had run away with someone else. Forgive him for his lack of vocabulary, but if he was asked to describe it, he felt that this metaphor was definitely the most suitable for Han Shangqing's current situation. status.

Han Shangqing's expression was exactly the same as Ye Fuming's. Both of them had the same attitude, which made Ling Xiao wonder if this matter was really so serious.

Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and seemed to understand something.

Ling Xiao's logic is as follows:

1. He is the emperor of Dakong Kingdom

2. There are many people coveting the throne

3. The woman bypassed numerous guards and mysteriously appeared by his bedside

Then the conclusion is,

This guy is most likely an assassin!

In this way, everything made sense. Ye Fuming blamed himself for not protecting himself well. Han Shangqing was afraid of panic when he thought of the consequences of a woman being an assassin. That's it!

He knows the truth!

Ling Xiao, who consciously knew the truth, patted Han Shangqing on the shoulder, and said calmly, "Don't blame yourself."

???

"It's not your fault."

? ? ? ! ! ! !

"Don't worry about me. I didn't learn martial arts for nothing."

"Your Majesty!!!" What is going on in your mind! ! !Seeing Ling Xiao who had walked out of the secret room, Han Shangqing collapsed.

Despite the reluctance of many people, the day of concubine selection finally came.

Layers of bead curtains on the gorgeous palace completely blocked the face of the man sitting on the golden throne, and wisps of green smoke slowly rose from the golden hollow incense burner, blurring the face of the incense burner.

As the cigarette rose, beautiful women in various dresses walked in. The faces of the women were either frightened or excited or calm, but the same thing was that none of these women It's not the appearance of the city.

It can be said that these ministers, in order to allow their families to gain a firm foothold in the court, all tried their best.You must know that the emperor has been on the throne for three years. He doesn't love Chinese clothes, doesn't like fine wine, and doesn't like flattery. They all have a cold and indifferent appearance, which is almost frightening the courage of the courtiers.

Except for those who are absolutely loyal and upright, the rest of the officials are all trembling, for fear of offending Shengyan.Although no one has been severely punished so far, it is precisely because of this that these officials are walking on eggshells.

Choosing a concubine today is a great opportunity to spy on the emperor's preferences. If his wife is selected, will his family's position in the court be very stable? !

With such a mood in mind, the courtiers stuffed their daughters, nieces and even their goddaughters into the draft team one after another.

But today they are doomed to be disappointed.It's not because of Ling Xiao's personal reasons, but because there are two men who are sharpening their knives in this hall.

The bead curtain blocked Xiunvmen's line of sight very well, but it exposed their every move in Ling Xiao's eyes.He looked at the beautiful and delicate women, and winked at Xiao Dezi.

Xiao Dezi immediately walked through the bead curtain, led the eunuchs and guards out of the palace, and slowly closed the palace door.

Watching the main hall door slowly close, the show girls showed panic expressions.

Ling Xiao winked at Taifu Han and Shiwei Ye again, and they walked out of the bead curtain on the left and right, and stood on both sides of the outer bead curtain.

This is why Ling Xiao let them stay here, not only to check for himself, but also to verify that he did not do anything strange to this group of women, and to protect their reputation, although no one dared to doubt him .

Seeing that everything was ready, Ling Xiao leaned back in his chair and said lazily: "If you conceal the following questions at all, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor."

All the beautiful girls were startled, and all the softly lowered heads were raised in surprise.

"The first one, do you have a sweetheart?" This is what Ling Xiao decided to ask after thinking about it many times. In his previous life, he had read too many novels in which his sweetheart entered the palace and rebelled or caused a series of bad things. On oneself, absolutely must avoid.

Perhaps it was because of what he said at the beginning, Ling Xiao could clearly see the hesitation on the faces of the women.

"If there is, then stand on my side, if not, then stand on Ye Shiwei's side," Han Taifu said gently.

Hearing the gentle, watery voice, goosebumps appeared on Ling Xiao's body.He told Taifu Han to be gentle in advance, not to scare these women, so that those who originally had a sweetheart dare not come out, but he did not expect that Taifu Han would implement it so thoroughly. Although he couldn't see his expression, he was sure that Han Shangqing's There must be a smile as warm and warm as the spring breeze in March on his face.

"All the choices you make will not be rumored, and you don't need to worry about the consequences, you are not joking."

After Ling Xiao said these few words, it was clear that the faces of the women became more and more shaken, but there was still no one in front of Taifu Han.

"Ye Shiwei." At this time, it is time for Ye Shiwei to step out

"Green top and blue skirt, blue top and pink hairpin... bright yellow top and orange belt, please stand in front of Taifu Han." Ye Shiwei's voice was devoid of emotion.

The wavering women Ling Xiao had seen before were clearly among them, and Ye Shiwei's eagle eyes really lived up to his reputation.

Ling Xiao asked a few more questions, until there were only three women left in His Royal Highness, Ling Xiao knew in his heart that his future concubines would be the following three.

With anticipation for the future, he said to Shiwei Ye and Taifu Han, "That's it."

"Yes." The two saluted Ling Xiao, and led the women out of the hall.

The next thing is not for Ling Xiao to take care of, because he is still in the artificially extended mourning period, so this marriage can't be a big deal, he can just go straight to the bridal chamber in a few days.

This is definitely an important moment, which means that Ling Xiao's 28-year virgin history is about to come to a perfect end.Yes, you heard that right, Ling Xiao, who has been the emperor for more than 3 years and the prince for more than 7 years, has never been close to a woman until now! !In the beginning, it was because he was not familiar with this world, and at that time, the original body was in grief because of the death of the crown princess. When he became emperor, Han Shangqing's prodigal son actually used the name of keeping filial piety to prevent women from getting close to her!But now it's all right, he will soon be able to complete the great harmony in his life.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn't stop the melody of joy in his heart at all, drinking the rhythm in his heart, walking around in the hall.

"As for being so happy?" Taifu Han and Shiwei Ye came in one after the other, before they came in, the sour words came first.

"Don't envy me, I'm a loner." Ling Xiao wasn't angry at all, how could such a loner understand his desire to marry a wife soon?

"Speaking of which, you are also at the age of marriage, but you are interested." Tired from walking for a long time, Ling Xiao sat on the chair and looked at Han Shangqing with interest.

"Heh..." Taifu Han showed a bitter and mocking smile, "Of course."

"who is it?"

Taifu Han suddenly stared at the man on the chair, and was about to speak

"Taifu Han!" Ye Shiwei interrupted suddenly.Ye Shiwei was not surprised by Han Shangqing's performance. In fact, he had already guessed that Taifu Han would have an explosive moment. Later, he personally chose a concubine for Ling Xiao, and it would not have been easy for him if he hadn't been driven mad by jealousy.

Not to mention Han Shangqing who has never been able to hide things from Ling Xiao.

Annoyance suddenly appeared on Han Shangqing's face, and it was only then that he noticed what he almost said just now.He suddenly picked up the teacup and took a gulp of water before slowly regaining his composure.

Seeing the interaction between these two people, Ling Xiao felt uncomfortable. The two clearly knew something that they didn't know.The tacit understanding between the two made him feel excluded.

He sighed slightly, not surprised by this, he already knew that this would happen to them sooner or later.Because he is the emperor, although he has nothing to hide from them and trusts them, but after all, he is the emperor who has the power of life and death over them. This friendship has been unequal from the beginning.Now he can still say that he regards those two as brothers who live and die together, as people who can entrust their lives, but in the future, who knows whether he will be corrupted by power in the future, and whether they will no longer dare to give their lives to themselves ?

This is the helplessness of being an emperor.One day he will be as supreme as the emperors in those novels, but no one can trust him.

But, at least not now!

"Han Shangqing! Tell me, which of the three girls I left behind do you like?" Ling Xiao asked slowly, taking back his thoughts just now.

"Ah?" Han Shangqing had just calmed down when he heard a sentence that made him scratch his head.

"I've thought about it. You must have taken a fancy to some woman for your recent gaffe. Tell me, who is it? I can marry you immediately." Ling Xiao smiled and looked at him encouragingly.

……

……

……

After a long silence, Han Shangqing's helpless voice came from the palace, "My lord, what are you thinking?"
