The wicked imperial concubine is courting death again; the comments section teaches her how to win w

Before Qi Yitang could even defend herself against Xie Jingyu's past misdeeds, she was carried back to her bedchamber and severely "punished."

Unfortunately, upon learning that Qi Yitang was unwell, Ning Nishang made a special trip to visit her.

"Tangtang, what's wrong?"

Upon entering the hall, one sees Qi Yitang huddled in the quilt, only her head peeking out, her eyes brimming with tears, and her face flushed with an unusual blush.

Ning Nishang's heart tightened. If it wasn't just motion sickness, why did it look so serious?

She quickly walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. "Have you caught a cold? Should I send someone to fetch the imperial physician?"

Qi Yitang forced a smile, her voice trembling slightly, "It's nothing..."

"I've already seen the imperial physician and taken the medicine... I'm much better..."

Perhaps she really was sick, Ning Nishang felt that she was not speaking very clearly. She reached out and touched Qi Yitang's cheek, frowning as she said, "But you seem to be shivering... Are you very cold?"

[My god, what are you doing in front of the female lead...]

[Working.]

[Little Fatty, come quickly and take this innocent little white flower away, lest it get stained yellow!]

This was so exciting! I loved it.

Qi Yitang felt as bitter as gall, but she could only force herself to appear weak and said, "It's nothing, it's just a cold snap in early spring... I'm a little cold."

"Cough cough, I'll be fine after a rest. Cousin, you...you go back first, don't worry about me..."

Seeing that she really didn't want to say more, Ning Nishang didn't press the matter further.

"Okay, then make sure you get plenty of rest. Remember to take your medicine if you feel unwell, and don't sneak off to sleep."

"Yeah, I definitely won't fall..."

The moment the palace doors closed, Qi Yitang, unable to contain herself any longer, reached out and punched the blanket behind her.

That's enough!

Xie Ling slowly emerged from under the covers. Her hair ornament had long since come loose, and her long, dark hair was draped over her shoulders. Gone was her usual imperial majesty; instead, she exuded a beautiful and alluring aura.

He was shirtless, wrapped tightly around Qi Yitang from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, his voice carrying a lazy laugh.

"Tangtang, it's clearly your cousin who's inconsiderate and insists on bothering us, so why are you blaming your husband?"

Qi Yitang was so tightly held by him that she couldn't move and was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

She's just a simple, kind-hearted girl; how could she know that you, the dignified ruler of a nation, were doing such shady things under the covers!

Luckily, my cousin had no experience in this area; otherwise, she would have been in a terrible situation.

Qi Yitang bared her teeth, "Hurry up... If anyone else finds out, I'll bite you to death!"

Her parents might come if she falls ill; Xie Ling hasn't shown up for a long time, so the Empress Dowager might send someone to inquire; and Xie Changqing, that clingy brother-obsessed guy, will inevitably want to spar with Xie Ling at the hunting grounds.

The most crucial one is Fourth Brother...

He could tell at a glance.

Just thinking about it made Qi Yitang feel like her face was being rubbed on the ground; it was incredibly embarrassing.

Xie Ling didn't seem to care, and even chuckled softly.

There's nothing wrong with people coming; the more people there are, the more nervous Tangtang gets, and when she's nervous, she becomes even more...

He silently swallowed the words in his heart, only lowering his head to place a light kiss on the back of her neck, "Your husband obeys."

However, in the second half, Qi Yitang almost protested, saying that she meant the time was fast, not the speed!

……

After wasting a whole day, Qi Yitang dared not wander around anymore.

The main concern is that triggering certain keywords could give someone an opportunity to exploit the situation.

The next day, she stayed obediently in the palace and didn't even leave the house.

Qi Jiyun came over for a visit and saw that she had a rosy complexion and was full of energy, completely unlike Ning Nishang's description of her being bedridden and trembling all over. He then left with a quiet remark, "You guys played really dirty games," and then leisurely walked away.

Qi Yitang: "..."

On the third day, the spring hunt officially began.

Early in the morning, the sound of deep horns and rapid drumbeats came from the hunting grounds, one after another urging them on.

The past two days have been peaceful, but today the hunting party will venture deep into the mountains and forests, where the dense forests and complex terrain make it an ideal place for an ambush.

Qi Yitang, unusually, did not stay in bed and got up early in the morning.

Because I simply can't sleep.

If it weren't for the assassin incident, she would most likely have changed into riding clothes and gone in for a bit of fun.

Hunting in the Great Qian Dynasty is open to both men and women; anyone with decent riding skills can participate.

When the late emperor was alive, Princess Anping consistently ranked among the top three in hunting, surpassing even the princes in skill and bravery.

As always, she was dressed smartly in her riding outfit, her hair tied in a high ponytail, looking incredibly dashing. Her two little ones, Jiahe and Jiasui, exclaimed with starry eyes, "Mommy is so handsome!"

They looked just like two straight men in a comedy duo.

Before the hunt begins, it is customary for the emperor to shoot the first arrow, symbolizing catching the deer and achieving victory.

The emperor, dressed in black riding attire, ascended the high platform. His narrow sleeves and waist were tied, and his long boots were worn. His posture was as upright as a pine tree, and he appeared less solemn and more fierce than usual.

The eunuch released a captive male deer out of its enclosure, and the deer panicked and ran around wildly as soon as it was released.

Xie Ling drew his bow and nocked an arrow with fluid, graceful movements.

"Whoosh—" The arrow left the bowstring and struck the stag's neck with lightning precision.

The deer trembled, staggered a few steps, and collapsed.

The eunuchs below struck a gong, and Li Degui announced loudly, "His Majesty has obtained the deer with the bow! Auspicious! The spring hunt shall now officially begin—"

At the command, horses neighed and dust billowed. Teams filed out and galloped into the depths of the mountains and forests.

The emperor was not in a hurry to enter; instead, he came to Qi Yitang.

Qi Yitang didn't know if the assassins would come today, or how many people would come.

She wanted to go with him, but feared she would be a burden. Her eyes were filled with worry as she said, "Yanzhi..."

Xie Ling gently pressed the back of her hand against her cheek to comfort her, "It's okay, Tangtang, don't worry."

He said to the guard next to him who was wearing a human skin mask, "Protect your sister-in-law well."

Xie Changqing said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as I live, I will not let Your Majesty lose a single hair!"

"drive--"

With a crack of the whip, the horse's hooves flew, and it turned and headed towards the mountains and forests.

Qi Yitang stood on one side of the high platform, watching the dark figure gradually disappear into the distance, feeling empty inside, unable to find any support.

God bless, I hope Yanzhi returns safely.

Xie Changqing couldn't stand her attitude. "Sister-in-law, there's no need to worry. Your brother is invincible; this little assassin will be easily dealt with!"

Qi Yitang: "..." Can't you live a day without being a brother-obsessed guy?

After a long silence, she suddenly spoke, "I don't think you should have been born into the Queen Mother's womb."

Xie Changqing frowned. "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"

Do you think he and his elder brother have no brotherly bond?

"You should have been reborn as your brother's son; he would have been an exceptionally filial son." Qi Yitang shook her head and sighed, "What a pity."

Xie Changqing was taken aback and stood there thinking for a while.

It's not impossible!

Although his father was also an emperor, he was already old when he was born and did not have the same heroic and domineering presence as his elder brother.

wrong--

Xie Changqing suddenly realized that if he did that, wouldn't he have to call Qi Yitang "mother"?

That wicked woman, she's always taking advantage of him!
