Linglong's words "I don't want to see him" fell on Qi Zhen's ears, and his steps stagnated slightly.

After taking a few steps, he asked warmly: "Are you awake? Are you feeling better?" As he spoke, he walked back to the bed.

Linglong in the bed tent hugged her knees and lowered her eyes, unwilling to look at him or reply.

Qi Zhen had no choice but to walk towards her, and only stopped when he reached Linglong's bed.

He stopped, raised his hand to lift the bed curtain, and looked down at Linglong inside the bed curtain. The Linglong in front of him was thin, with his head buried in his arms and his eyelashes trembling, looking pitiful.

Qi Zhen's throat trembled slightly, and he reached out to tuck the strand of hair at the end of her eyes that was wet with sweat or tears behind her ears.

Linglong subconsciously turned her head to avoid it, and the strand of hair that Qi Zhen had just touched slipped through his fingers again.

His fingertips shrank and he retracted his hand.

Linglong turned her head and looked down, just in time to see the brocade bag tied around Qi Zhen's waist.

She paused for a moment and recognized that the brocade bag tied around Qi Zhen's waist was the one she had embroidered.

Linglong's eyes were stunned, and she raised her eyes blankly, just in time to meet Qi Zhen's eyes.

Qi Zhen met Linglong's gaze, his eyebrows were gentle, and he slowly sat down opposite Linglong. He raised his hand and tucked the strand of hair behind Linglong's ear.

This time, Linglong forgot to avoid his hand.

Qi Zhen tucked the strand of hair behind her ear as he wished, felt a little relieved, and said warmly: "Linglong, what I said to you before was not a lie. I really have no feelings for your sister between men and women." Qi Zhen said this.

His eyes flashed slightly as he spoke, but his face did not turn red and his heart did not beat.

He thought that this shouldn't be considered a lie to her.

To this day in his life, he really has no feelings for Shen Qinliu between men and women.

As for all the specialness and care in this life, in the final analysis, it is just because of that dream, or in other words, because of the entanglement in the previous life, but how can it be regarded as the love between a man and a woman.

Qi Zhen thought so and said these words to Linglong, so naturally he didn't feel much shame, and the faint guilt was easily suppressed by him.

Linglong lowered her eyebrows and said nothing. Thinking that he was wearing the kit given by his sister every day, she couldn't believe his words.

Qi Zhen naturally understood her hesitation.

He leaned close to her ear and said seriously: "You know my habits. Once you get used to using them, you won't want to throw them away. There is no other purpose."

Qi Zhen's words fell on Linglong's ears, with a bewitching meaning, tempting her to fly into the flames and make the same mistakes again.

Linglong clenched her palms tightly, causing the broken nails to prick her palms and forced herself to wake up.

"Linglong can't believe what your highness said. Most of the old things you cherished in the past have been collected. But you wear this bag every day and cherish it so much. Linglong doesn't believe that you only act like this because you are used to it."

In fact, let alone Linglong, Qi Zhen himself didn't believe what he said.

What makes you reluctant to change it after you are used to it? It's just that during the three years of getting along with Linglong, I couldn't suppress my emotions, and I felt guilty for the woman in my dream, so I wore this kit every day, and occasionally used it to think about it.

Think of the woman in the dream.

But it doesn't matter what he thinks in his heart, because what matters right now is to trick Linglong into believing him and not to make trouble with him on this matter again.

Qi Zhen thought so, then shook his head and said with a smile: "If you think about it for a moment, you will know that I treasure it and don't use it. What I look at occasionally is the more precious thing. As for what I wear on my body every day, it is just for use."

Just get used to it. If you really cherish it so much, how can you be willing to let it wear out?"

What Qi Zhen said was not entirely false.

Qi Zhen never wore the pendant that Linglong gave him on the night of consummation, not only because he didn't like those gadgets, but also because the material of Linglong's dice was fragile and he was afraid of falling and knocking it.

Qi Zhen's words really struck a chord in Linglong's heart.

She cared so much about this brocade bag, maybe because Qi Zhen wore the brocade bag every day, but never wore the pendant she gave him that day.

Linglong pursed her lips and said nothing, but her expression relaxed.

Seeing her relaxed expression, Qi Zhen also thought of the pendant. He leaned against her body and whispered softly, coaxing: "In the past, you gave the pendant to the orphan. It's not that I didn't cherish it. It's precisely because I cherished it that I didn't want to part with it every day.

Wear it, lest it fall to pieces and make you cry again."

Qi Zhen couldn't understand Linglong's temperament very well.

The little girl is very coquettish and playful, and if she is coaxed a little, she will believe him in anything.

He was conceited that Linglong loved and missed him, and he was sure that Linglong would believe his lies again and again, so naturally he could deceive Linglong again and again.

She had no idea how Linglong would hate him and resent him if the trust and love were gone one day. How much Linglong's love and affection for him would turn into sharp ice that hurt her heart.

Qi Zhen used the reason for the pendant to coax Linglong, but he didn't know that the pendant had been lost, let alone how sad the lost pendant would be because of what he said today.

If he had known at this time that the lost pendant would cause trouble in the future, he would definitely have to change his story today.

It's a pity that he didn't know that in the future he would inevitably regret his words today but could not take them back.

Qi Zhen spoke softly, and every word soothed Linglong's heart.

Linglong's tightly clenched palms subconsciously relaxed a little.

She bit her lower lip tightly, looked up timidly, and said, "I don't believe you, so don't try to trick me."

Even as he said this, the anger and determination from yesterday were no longer in his eyes, leaving only the grievance that had not faded away.

Qi Zhen's heart trembled when he was looked at by Linglong's timid eyes, and he subconsciously clenched his palms.

He suppressed his trembling heart, raised his hand to hold Linglong's cheek, locked her eyes tightly, and said seriously and piously: "Linglong, believe me again? Huh?"

Linglong was bewitched by the sincerity in his eyes and words. After hesitating for a while, she looked closely into Qi Zhen's eyes and asked, "You really didn't lie to me."

Qi Zhen's heart trembled, but he barely kept his expression unchanged and replied: "No."

After saying "never", Linglong burst into tears.

Qi Zhen panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to wipe her tears.

Linglong pursed her lips and cried, falling on Qi Zhen's shoulder, sobbing, and her throat was choked.

"I hate it when others lie to me. I trust you so much. If you lie to me again, I will hate you to death."

The little girl cried in a sweet voice, and the curses in her mouth fell on Qi Zhen's ears, like timid moans, not painful but itchy.

"Okay, I won't lie to you." Qi Zhen patted the back of the person in his arms and coaxed him in a gentle voice.

There is no medicine for regret in the world. Whatever Qi Zhen says now and every word in the future will hurt Linglong a thousand times, and they will all turn into the pain that should befall him, causing him to suffer all kinds of torture and regret.

Linglong cried tremblingly, wiping away her tears and asked: "Just now I heard you said outside that the East Palace was going to add someone, but is it true?"

Qi Zhen's movements were slightly stagnant, and he did not answer directly, but coaxed her: "Linglong, no matter how many women come into the East Palace, no one can surpass you in the lonely heart."

Linglong also understood in her heart that she was marrying the prince, the future king, and she could not be the only woman. But she always hoped that others would come later, and even later, so that Qi Zhen could accompany her again.

longer.

Linglong doesn't want to be virtuous, she can't learn to be generous, and she has no desire to share her love with others.

She leaned on Qi Zhen's shoulder, bit her lip and murmured: "Husband, Linglong doesn't want you to have anyone else."

Qi Zhen smiled helplessly and said: "It's still early. If you sleep a little longer, I have to rush to the palace to attend the morning court. I'll see you again after the court."

He still coaxed her, but he didn't respond to her in any way.

Linglong stood up from Qi Zhen's shoulder in a daze, her eyes dim. Qi Zhen naturally noticed the change in her eyes, but he just stroked her eyebrows and coaxed her to sleep.

"You are still sick, so sleep a little longer and go to the palace alone to attend court."

In the palace in the imperial city, the queen, who had just returned from the East Palace, was sitting next to the food tray, looking at the table full of breakfast, unable to eat and sighing.

The nun who followed her to the East Palace looked at the master who was so worried that he couldn't eat, and she tried to persuade her: "Children and grandchildren are blessed with children and grandchildren. Your Highness, urinating is not something that needs to be bothered by your Majesty. If you want to have an heir, so does Your Highness."

If you have other plans, please don’t worry too much.”

After hearing this, the queen's expression did not soften, but she became more and more depressed.

Putting down the chopsticks in his hands, he put his hand on his forehead and said: "I don't want to worry about this, but the royal family is most taboo about having no heirs. Zhen'er has an emptiness at his knees and was injured in his early years. It's not that there are ministers in the court who privately talk about Zhen'er being unable to give birth, so they

I was worried about this matter in the early years. I thought that after Zhen'er consummated the marriage with Miss Shen, the heir to the throne would be just around the corner, but I didn't expect that he actually gave the bracelet to Miss Shen.

Gong really doesn’t understand why Zhen’er is like this.”

If you don't like it, you don't have to consummate the relationship. You just can't bear the beauty and consummate the relationship. You can go out of Nanyuan to find a chance to kill it, or choose someone else you like to enter the East Palace. Unexpectedly, in the past three years, Qi Zhen has only had that kind of marriage in the house.

The Shen girl was a woman, and she had never found an excuse to send her away after leaving Nanyuan. It didn't look like she didn't like her.

But if you like it, why don't you allow that girl from the Shen family to give birth to an heir?

Qi Zhen's knees are empty. If Miss Shen Er can give birth to her eldest son, she will have someone to rely on in the future, and she will be a prosperous life.

But Qi Zhen refused to let her give birth.

The queen could not figure out Qi Zhen's thoughts.

He simply stopped thinking about it and said with his own heart: "Well, since Zhen'er doesn't want Miss Shen Er to have a child, let's find some other women. I remember that there is a concubine in the third brother's family who is about to be married. Please come back.

The Duke's Mansion asked the third brother and the third sister-in-law what they wanted. If it is feasible, I will issue an edict and seal the concubine into the East Palace. The formal admission of the concubine will take a long time. Before entering the East Palace, the concubine will be selected in the East Palace.

Two palace maids are proposed as concubines. I remember that there used to be two palace maids in the East Palace who were ready to inform Zhen'er. Let's just say those two. They used to serve Zhen'er. If Zhen'er hadn't been in trouble,

After leaving Nanyuan, the two of them are already the concubines of the East Palace."

When the grandmother who was waiting by the side heard the words, her expression moved slightly, she hurriedly responded, resigned and went to do the things the Queen ordered.

Those two maids had been waiting in front of Qi Zhen since he was a child. Although they were not allowed to enter the study, these two maids had been waiting in the bedroom before Qi Zhen entered Nanyuan. Mammy herself had long thought that the two of them would be Qi Zhen.

The two people in the Zhendong Palace who were favored by their master, if it hadn't been for the Nanyuan incident, I'm afraid the one who is favored by the master now might not be Miss Shen Er.
