Chapter 222: Wanting the Queen's Position
Chapter 222: Wanting the Queen's Position
Inside Yuanchen Palace.
After Concubine Shu was dragged away, Xiao Qiao was so frightened that her face turned pale and bloodless, and she kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life, Imperial Concubine..."
Without saying a word, Jin Xin rushed to Xiao Qiao and slapped her hard.
"How dare you betray the Imperial Concubine?"
Xiao Qiao knocked her head until it bled: "I was wrong... I know my crime, please, Your Majesty, give me another chance to make amends."
Her eyes flashed, and she quickly put all the blame on Qiao'er.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you don't know yet, Qiao'er... she betrayed Your Majesty. It was Qiao'er who resented Your Majesty's cruelty to her, so she first took refuge with Concubine Shu, and then instigated this servant to do these wrong things. This servant did not do it voluntarily, it was Qiao'er who forced this servant to do all this..."
Qin Feiling raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Qiao'er betrayed the imperial concubine?"
Xiaoqiao nodded immediately.
"Yes, Qiao'er betrayed the Imperial Concubine. It's true... absolutely true. So, Your Majesty, I was forced to do this. My crime does not deserve death. Please spare my life, Your Majesty."
A cold smile flashed across Zhou Lingge's eyes.
She tugged at Qin Feiling's collar and said, "Your Majesty, this is the internal affairs of Yuanchen Palace. Why don't you let me handle it?"
Qin Feiling nodded slowly: "Well, you can do it yourself."
"From today on, the management of these six palaces will belong to you. Ge'er, I will see how you perform."
Zhou Lingge responded with a smile.
She leaned into his arms like a spoiled child.
She looked at Jin Xin and winked.
Xiao Qiao's eyes were full of fear. She wanted to continue begging for mercy, but Jin Xin blocked her mouth and dragged her away.
The palace door was closed...and peace returned to the palace.
Zhou Lingge raised her arms and hugged Qin Feiling's neck. She put her bright red lips close to his face and kissed him gently.
"Your Majesty has suddenly given me the power to manage the six palaces. I am truly flattered. I am afraid that I will not be able to do my job well and thus disappoint Your Majesty."
Faced with such an active and charming Zhou Lingge, Qin Feiling smiled in a cowardly way.
He took advantage of the situation and put his arms around her waist, rubbing his thin lips against hers again and again.
"I believe in your ability, Imperial Concubine. If things go wrong, I'll cover for you. What are you afraid of?"
"Ge'er, I've said... as long as you stay by my side obediently, I'll give you whatever you want."
Zhou Lingge's eyes flickered, she raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "Really? Your Majesty, aren't you deceiving me? Are you using these words to cheer me up?"
Qin Feiling's eyes were filled with solemnity. He held Zhou Lingge's face and spoke word by word, "Every word I say to you is sincere and heartfelt."
"Ge'er, please try to trust me just once, okay?"
Zhou Lingge was burned by his sincere gaze, her eyes flickered and she tried to avoid his gaze.
Qin Feiling stared into her eyes: "Ge'er, look at me..."
"Would you please sincerely look into my heart?"
Zhou Lingge couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and she unconsciously looked into Qin Feiling's eyes.
His eyes were as deep as the ocean, like the undercurrent surging beneath the calm surface, seemingly calm but actually containing swirling waves that could not be ignored. Those swirls were like lightning streaking through the night sky; sometimes they became gentle as water, just like the warm spring sun shining on the sparkling sea.
His eyes were pure and flawless, as if just one glance could reveal his passionate and open heart.
Zhou Lingge couldn't help but breathe slightly.
She asked for some unknown reason.
"What if I want the position of Queen? Your Majesty, are you willing to give it to me?"
Qin Feiling chuckled, with a bright light flashing between his eyebrows.
Back position!
She sat naturally.
If the current situation was not unstable, he would have wanted to get rid of Zhou Shiya a long time ago.
Now, isn't the Queen Zhou Shiya useless?
After the dethronement, only when that position is vacated can he hold his beloved woman and sit on it!
Qin Feiling pursed her lips and smiled, lowering her head to play with Zhou Lingge's soft little hands.
"I didn't expect that Ge'er, you have such a big appetite..."
A hint of mockery flashed across Zhou Lingge's eyes, and she looked away.
"My biological mother was a singer, and I will never be able to escape the lowly status of a concubine in my lifetime..."
"Your Majesty, have you spoiled me to the point of me being lawless, that I even dare to covet the supreme position of Empress?"
Letting a concubine's daughter sit on the throne of empress... This is something that many emperors throughout history have not been able to do easily.
She didn't believe that Qin Feiling would go to such lengths for her.
Qin Feiling looked at Zhou Lingge's self-deprecating and slightly mocking words.
His heart was filled with heartache.
Without saying a word, he hugged her tightly in his arms.
At this moment, he wanted to cut open his heart and let her see it clearly.
"Ge'er... don't underestimate yourself. No matter your origins, no matter who your biological mother is, you are you... you are Zhou Lingge. I only like Zhou Lingge, not some concubine's daughter or legitimate daughter... or some noble status."
"I like you, so I will naturally give you any status you want..."
At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he was the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Only if he becomes the emperor and rules the world, he will be qualified to have such a beautiful Zhou Lingge.
When a man really falls in love with a woman, he will naturally want to give her all the good things in the world in order to win her favor!
Zhou Lingge didn't expect Qin Feiling to say that. Her eyes were full of astonishment and she looked at Qin Feiling in a daze.
She looked into his eyes with such sincerity...
Her heart suddenly became confused.
She lowered her eyes, not daring to look him in the eye.
Does he...really like me?
Is he really willing to give me the throne and give everything for me?
That night, Zhou Lingge nestled in Qin Feiling's arms. She opened her eyes countless times from her sleep, staring blankly at Qin Feiling's facial features.
She raised her hand and gently stroked his eyebrows, straight nose, and thin lips.
His words echoed in her mind over and over again.
She couldn't help but think secretly, Qin Feiling...can she trust him?
She can give her true heart to him, will he protect her heart well?
Qin Feiling went to court, and Zhou Lingge fell asleep again without realizing it.
This time, she had a nightmare.
Heavy snow was falling all over the sky, and everything around was covered in white snow.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow pierced through countless snowflakes, carrying the murderous aura of wind and snow, and stabbed straight towards her face.
She couldn't help but be surprised.
With a puff, a figure flew in front of her and hugged her tightly in his arms.
The sharp arrow pierced his back.
He hugged himself and fell to his knees in the snow with his legs weak.
The white snow around her gradually began to look like red blood... The blood gradually dyed all the white snow under her feet red.
