Queen is the top

Shi Yuqing knew He Jingyi's character best, and this smile meant that he was thinking dangerously. He thought faintly: It's a bit worrying that he has just ascended the throne, but his foundation is not stable yet he has to offend relatives and nobles.

Shi Yuqing knew that Duke Ling's words were true. He Jingyi was the emperor, and his heirs were very important to the country. He had never been able to give birth to a prince, so how could he not make the ministers anxious.

However, Shi Yuqing raised her eyes slightly, her eyes overflowing with coldness, asking him to share his lover with other women, this is something he would never allow!

He Jingyi's child must be his!

Just offend if you offend him, he is no longer the weak-hearted Shi Yuqing back then.

Unknowingly, he was carefully cared for and taught by He Jingyi to become a man with a strong heart, who knows how to protect his love and the person he likes.

At this time, his whole body showed a different strength than before, which made He Jingyi notice it. He raised his brows in surprise, and silently stretched out his hand to hold his hand tightly.

Grand Master Yuan raised his eyes slightly to look at He Jingyi, whose face was getting colder and colder, and knew that the child was angry.

Even Grand Tutor Chang Youjing, who had always been the most vocal opponent of the Tongzhi of the emperor and empress, did not make any response, secretly thinking that Duke Ling was so courageous to offend Longyan.

Seeing that He Jingyi did not respond, and no one around responded, Ling Guogong and others couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat in the face of the increasingly condensed and serious atmosphere in the hall.

Duke Ling raised his eyes cautiously, and inadvertently glanced at the faces of Hua Nanjin, Ye Cong, Yuan Lie, Wang Shichu and other young people, all of them looked like "you are dead" and "you are so brave". Seeing the classy expression, my heart suddenly became anxious.

But Shi Daoran, who had always been on good terms with him, gave him a hard look, his eyebrows were raised up in anger.

Looking at the others, he was even more panicked. The few people who had encouraged him were silent, even Chang Youjing, who had always been the most opposed to the queen, and the others did not respond.

However, Duke Ling is a descendant of the founding father, and his family has been married to the royal family for generations. He said this is also a plan to send women in the family into the palace to gain favor, so as to benefit the family and stabilize his position in the court.

Now there is Grand Master Yuan in Chaozhong, and Wu is his son Yuan Qingcheng, and the power of the Yuan family is inside and outside the palace, how can he not be jealous.

Back then when their Lin family was the sixth emperor of Dacheng, they had such honors and favors. Now the family's decline is all because there is no one in the harem.

So, he moved his mind, but he got this kind of reaction, which was unexpected.

He waited for a long while, but He Jingyi didn't speak, he couldn't help but look awkward, and wanted to speak again, but he still couldn't muster up the courage.

When everyone was about to be suffocated by the oppressive atmosphere of the court, He Jingyi slightly raised his hand, and Yun Donghai shouted loudly: "Back the court!"

Although everyone was surprised by his reaction, they were relieved from the bottom of their hearts. They could finally leave the suffocating court hall. They knelt respectfully and shouted "Long live the emperor and a thousand years for the empress." Leave in an orderly manner from both sides.

Sitting in the arrogance of going back to Shoukang Palace, Shi Yuqing didn't say a word.

He Jingyi slightly tilted his chin, looked at him with deep eyes, and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Lan?"

Shi Yuqing paused slightly, knowing exactly what he was referring to, but said: "What did Jing Yi say?"

He Jingyi held his hand, Shi Yuqing was surprised, but he still held it, but did not shake it back.

He Jingyi lowered his eyes slightly, concealing the panic in his eyes, and said slowly, "What do Lord Lan think about the matter that Duke Ling mentioned?"

Shi Yuqing moved her chin, but she still didn't look up at him, and didn't say a word.

He Jingyi stared at him deeply, silently waiting for his reply, until the anxiety in his heart became more and more serious, and he couldn't help but confess his feelings first, but Shi Yuqing kissed his lips.

He Jingyi was captured by his sweetness in an instant, and just about to throw himself in, Shi Yuqing backed away, leaving him in vain, and dissatisfaction appeared in his eyes.

Shi Yuqing reached out to caress He Jingyi's neck, and pulled him into her, looking at him deeply.

Those eyes that were as bright as stars made He Jingyi fall into them in an instant.

"Jing Yi belongs to me alone, and I absolutely do not allow Jing Yi to accept any concubines."

He spoke every word very seriously, and the possessiveness in his tone was fully revealed.

He Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing from the bottom of his heart, Shi Yuqing looked at him silently and smiled without saying a word.

After laughing, He Jingyi hugged him and kissed him deeply, kissing him very affectionately, wishing he could rub him into his body, stroking his back up and down with his hands.

It was the first time that Shi Yuqing showed such obvious possessiveness, which made his heart boil.

He didn't stick to his lips until he was out of breath, and let him go slightly, with excitement in his voice: "Is Lan Jun jealous?"

Shi Yuqing slightly raised the corners of her mouth, smiled and said nothing.

He Jingyi repeated, "Lan Jun is jealous." This sentence is affirmative.

Shi Yuqing stubbornly raised her chin and remained silent, while He Jingyi looked at him with a patient smile, staring at him and wanting to hear what he said she wanted to hear.

After a long while like this, Shi Yuqing couldn't hold back anymore, sat up straight and didn't look at him, He Jingyi reached into his clothes, stroked the skin on his waist, and put his chin on his shoulder, "Lan Why don't you speak?"

Shi Yuqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her eyes were still looking away from him at the tulle covering the sedan chair, and after a while, she said something that made He Jingyi's heart itch.

"Go back and talk."

He Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, the movement of his hands stopped, and soon he understood, the surprise in his eyes gradually turned into excitement, he bit Shi Yuqing's neck lightly, and said softly, "Okay."

After leaving the court, Yuan Lie, Hua Nanjin, and Ye Cong were about to discuss matters with Master He Jingyi Yuqing, so they went directly to the Shoukang Palace. The three of them chatted about the feat of Duke Ling this morning.

"Mr. Lingguo is really brave. He dared to say such a thing. The emperor's cousin can propose the idea of ​​the emperor's common governance. It can be seen how much he loves Yuqing. He dared to ask his cousin to accept the concubine. How dare he die , I really admire him." Yuan Lie gave a thumbs up while expressing emotion.

Ye Cong couldn't help laughing at his ironic tone, Hua Nanjin also shook his fan and laughed.

"Have you noticed your cousin's expression?" Yuan Lie smiled, folded his arms and made a cold gesture, "At that time, the atmosphere became cold, and it felt no different from being in the cold winter months."

Hua Nanjin nodded, "The funniest is Ling Guogong and others. They don't say no, and they don't want to retreat. They can only stand there, and their expressions are wonderful."

Ye Cong also noticed it, and laughed non-stop.

Hua Nanjin said again, "However, what surprised me was not His Majesty, but Her Majesty the Queen, and His Majesty's complexion was also very ugly at that time."

Ye Cong nodded, "I've also noticed that His Highness is usually so gentle, even a person who greets everyone with a smile will do the same. It can be seen that he is really angry."

Yuan Lie immediately interjected, "Of course Yuqing won't be happy to let her husband accept a concubine. Yuqing loves her cousin badly."

Yuan Lie put his hands on his chest and said, "Besides, Duke Ling mentioned this matter because he wanted to send his own girl into the palace as a concubine, so that he could benefit from it."

Although Hua Nanjin and Ye Cong also had this guess, they were not as sure as Yuan Lie said, Hua Nanjin smiled, "Why are you so sure, little Liezi?"

Yuan Lie curled his lips, "Mr. Ling has criticized our Yuan family many times behind the scenes, saying that civil and military are all from the Yuan family, and that the Yuan family is too powerful now, so they can't afford to offend them. In the end, they are just jealous of our family, but he I don't even think about it, my grandfather, my father, my uncles and cousins ​​have done so much for the court to get their status today, his Lin family doesn't want to make meritorious deeds, but only wants to rely on women to gain favor, it's really despised."

Hua Nanjin and Ye Cong looked at each other, both a little surprised how he heard these words, could it be that Duke Ling is so bold that he dared to talk about the courtiers so openly, and he was also the most powerful Grand Master of the Yuan Dynasty?Isn't this person too stupid.

Hua Nanjin nodded and said, "That's true. The merits of Grand Master Yuan and General Yuan are unmatched by anyone in the court today. How did you know that Duke Ling is talking like this behind his back?"

Yuan Lie said, "My distant relative's uncle, his friend happened to be on good terms with Lingguo Gong, and invited him to the banquet. That Lingguo Duke probably didn't know his relationship with my family, and my distant relative was not a courtier, but just a courtier. As a businessman, Lord Ling uttered wild words at the banquet that day, and my uncle was so angry that he waved his sleeves and left on the spot, and then it spread to my house."

Ye Cong asked curiously, "That uncle told your family?"

Yuan Lie said with a smile, "That's not true. Although that uncle is a businessman, he seldom interacts with my family, and he doesn't tell others about his relationship with my family, so many people don't know about it. Otherwise, Duke Ling wouldn't be in charge." He said so, his wife is about the same age as my sister-in-law, she has become acquainted with her after meeting her a few times, and she often gets together when she comes and goes, these words were told to my sister-in-law by the aunt in a hurry."

Hua Nanjin said, "Your uncle is a good person, he doesn't rely on your family's reputation for convenience."

Yuan Lie nodded and said with a smile, "That uncle is decent and talented. Grandpa once wanted to support him, but unfortunately he doesn't like to be an official. He only likes to do business to make money. He is a very money-loving person. Grandpa mentioned him occasionally. It's a pity."

Ye Cong said with a smile, "A gentleman loves money in a proper way. Your uncle earns money through business, so he is a gentleman."

"Brother Ye is exactly what you said." Yuan Lie nodded and smiled, "By the way, I heard from that aunt that at that banquet, the father of Her Highness the Queen, Master Shao, publicly criticized Duke Ling You shouldn't talk about the courtiers, but also cite the merits of my grandfather and father, saying that they deserve the honor they are today, and the public of Lingguo who said that on the spot couldn't save face, and the banquet was dismissed after a while."

"The Duke of Shao is really like this? I heard that he has a good relationship with Duke Ling." Hua Nanjin was a little surprised, "This Duke of Shao seems to be a different person since the incident with the eldest son of the Shi family."

Yuan Lie also agreed, "Nowadays he doesn't get involved in government affairs, and he doesn't provoke courtiers. Grandpa has praised him several times behind his back, saying that he really knows how to love children."

Hua Nanjin said, "His Royal Highness needs exactly this kind of father and mother's family now. Regardless of how he was when he was young, Shao Guogong can put his own interests aside and focus on his son. He is indeed a good father." gone."

Ye Cong nodded in agreement, "Aunt Shi didn't leave, but I heard from the owner of the almond cake in the east of the city that Lord Shao often went to buy some almond cake himself and ordered someone to send it to the palace for Aunt Shi, which shows that he loves you." her."

Hua Nanjin wondered, "Do you love almond cakes? How come I don't know?"

Ye Cong said with a smile, "I don't like almond cakes, but the bamboo leaf green wine next door is delicious. The boss likes to show off about it, so I can hear him say it even next door."

Hua Nanjin nodded, but had drank it several times at Ye Cong's house, the wine was really good, rich and mellow.

The three of them walked and chatted and soon arrived at Shoukang Palace. As soon as they entered the palace, the inner eunuch immediately came to salute. Seeing that the three of them didn't even need to accept the greeting card, they went directly to pass it on.

After a while, Yun Donghai hurried out, smiled politely and greeted the three of them.

"The three lords came at an unfortunate time. Your Majesty and His Highness are busy at this moment." Yun Donghai said with a smile, "Should the three of you wait in the hall, or go back first?"

Yuan Lie asked curiously, "It's still a while before lunch, what are the emperor and empress busy with? How long will it take?"

"It's not certain." Yun Donghai smiled, took Fuchen's hand and raised it towards him, "Master Yuan, don't ask, I'm afraid it will take a long time."

Hua Nanjin understood as soon as she heard it, she pursed her lips to hold back her smile, Ye Cong raised her eyebrows in puzzlement, and soon recovered and smiled.

Seeing the ambiguous expressions of the three people, Yuan Lie quickly understood the meaning, and said in surprise, "It's so early! It's just the morning court! Their energy is too good!"
