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

The intimacy in those words is undeniable.

Xie Jingyu did not answer, but his expression visibly darkened.

In the past, she would only act coquettishly in front of him, while Xie Ling would just watch from afar, envying him as he drank alone.

When exactly did things turn around?

"Yanzhi, why don't you—" Qi Yitang waited for a long time without getting a response, so she turned to look at Xie Ling, but the next moment, the bright smile on her lips froze.

Qi Yitang jumped up, took three steps back, as if she had seen a ghost.

"Why is it you?"

Xie Jingyu gripped the still-swaying swing ropes. "What's wrong? Is Tang'er so unwilling to see me?"

What exactly is the male lead trying to do? I'm starting to feel physically uncomfortable.

[Same here. The key point is that this person is the male lead chosen by the author. I feel so sorry for the villain; no matter what I do, he just won't die.]

Even the most powerful villains are still villains; they cannot defy the will of the Creator.

Am I the only one who feels sorry for the male lead? After so many years of childhood friendship, the female supporting character changed her mind so easily, and only the male lead is still stuck in the same place...

[That made me spit out my fist. Even having a fortune teller at home wouldn't help, you know?]

[Poor Thunder God! The female supporting character and the female lead left the male lead and found out it wasn't raining at all.]

Qi Yitang is very annoyed.

[Remember the fastest online novel website: 20 ...

She used to be the one following him around, that's true, but she's completely woken up now. Why does this person feel like chewed and spat-out taffy, disgusting yet sticky?

"I just felt it was unnecessary, Second Brother, please have some self-respect."

Xie Jingyu twirled his fingers and asked directly, "Tang'er, where were you the night of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet?"

That bastard has the nerve to ask.

Qi Yitang had almost forgotten the grudge he had inflicted on her by drugging her, but now that it was brought up again, her expression instantly turned cold.

"What's it to you, Your Highness Prince Gong? Just mind your own business and stop worrying about things you shouldn't be worrying about."

"Furthermore, I recall His Majesty issuing an edict that Prince Gong is not permitted to enter the palace without a valid reason."

"Now that you've entered the palace, you must have important business to attend to." Xie Jingyu smiled. "I still remember that Tang'er said she wanted to marry me when she was fifteen. It's just a pity that a woman's heart is fickle, and now..."

"If the Imperial Concubine has completely forgotten our past, then I will naturally seek out my own worthy one."

Nonsense about the past. Wasn't she blind before?

Qi Yitang wasn't interested in his love life, but the next second, Xie Jingyu changed the subject, "I heard that Tang'er has a cousin staying at her house. When I saw her last time, she was indeed very beautiful and pitiful."

"My household is currently lacking someone to manage the household affairs. Given her status, it's a bit of a stretch for her to be a princess. However, I can certainly offer her the position of a concubine."

Qi Yitang's eyes widened. "What did you say?!"

"Why is Tang'er making such a fuss? She is just an orphan girl. It is already a great blessing for her to be able to enter the palace as my concubine."

Xie Jingyu said, "Then you'll be both cousins ​​and sisters-in-law, wouldn't that be a beautiful story?"

[This scoundrel, why doesn't he become a concubine himself!]

In that instant, Xie Jingyu, who had been so aggressive in front of her, appeared with a completely different face in Qi Yitang's eyes, becoming incredibly ugly and filthy.

The plot of the original novel flashed through Qi Yitang's mind like a revolving lantern: she was forced into a military brothel, her brother was framed, her niece died tragically, her sister-in-law went insane... Her elderly parents were collecting the bodies of their family members, but they were still slaughtered by the people sent by Xie Jingyu.

Qi Yitang never dared to forget these things for a moment.

She originally thought that by clinging to Xie Ling's coattails and staying away from Xie Jingyu, she wouldn't repeat the same mistake.

Now it seems that it won't work, it simply won't work!

As long as Xie Jingyu is alive, he will never stop causing trouble and making things difficult for her at every turn.

Only when he dies can he and his family truly find peace.

Qi Yitang suppressed the hatred and murderous intent in her eyes, "Let me tell you, I do not agree to this, and His Majesty will not agree either!"

Xie Jingyu sneered, "I am His Majesty's elder brother. Why would I need His Majesty's consent to take a mere concubine?"

"No!" Qi Yitang said, enunciating each word clearly. "I'm warning you, don't you dare make a move on her!"

[So touching, the supporting actress has really changed a lot.]

[How disgusting! This bastard's every word is provocative.]

[This kind of character doesn't deserve to be the male lead? Has the author gone mad?]

Xie Jingyu ignored Qi Yitang's warning. He straightened his clothes and said indifferently, "If things go well, I will invite the Empress to the wedding banquet." After saying that, he left as if nothing had happened.

Qi Yitang was trembling with anger. She picked up a rock from the ground and hurled it at Xie Jingyu, yelling, "You're not good enough for my cousin!"

The rock hit Xie Jingyu in the back. He groaned and glanced back at her.

"You dare glare at her?" Qi Yitang snapped, "Get out!"

Xie Jingyu was taken aback by the intense emotions in Qi Yitang's eyes, and then stormed off in anger.

Qi Yitang's good mood while swinging on the swing was completely ruined.

Yunzhu quickly comforted her, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't get upset and harm your health."

"Let's go to the Imperial Study."

……

Qi Yitang stormed into the Imperial Study, startling Li Degui, who was guarding the door.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

"I have something to discuss with His Majesty. Go in and announce my presence."

Normally, Li Degui would have gone without hesitation, but today, he lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, the war in the Northwest has suddenly broken out, and General Qin is inside. You may have to wait a while."

Qi Yitang calmed down.

Xie Ling handled most unimportant matters in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and only important matters requiring discussion among senior officials were discussed in the Imperial Study.

It seems that Xie Ling has been much busier than before ever since that urgent report delivered over 800 li.

But he would still make time to have meals with her, which Qi Yitang thought was just normal busyness.

But it involves the Northwest...

Qi Yitang, unfamiliar with court politics, noticed Li Degui's grave expression and asked, "Is it very troublesome?"

Li Degui sighed, "Alas, Your Majesty, you may not know this, but the vassal states around the northwest border are all relatively peaceful, except for the Northern Rong... Last month, the old king passed away and a new king ascended the throne. The current king of the Northern Rong is young and impetuous, and has repeatedly gone north to provoke us, burning, killing, and looting on the northwest border, causing untold suffering to the people."

Qi Yitang asked, "Didn't His Majesty send anyone to fight?"

That's the tricky part.

Li Degui remained tight-lipped, saying, "General Qin claimed to be ill and declined several times... His Majesty is troubled by this."
