Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 124 Concubine Qi is just the emperor’s target
Listening to Murong Jiu's words, Jun Yuyan was thoughtful.

He frowned and said, "Ajiu will not tell you, I haven't noticed yet, but Jingbi does have a bit of the imperial grandmother in her body. Just thinking about it, it might be too shocking."

Murong Jiu understood what he meant.

She didn't dare to express that idea.

But once I had this idea, some of my father's words and deeds today seemed to be understandable.

The emperor didn't really like Jun Yuyan, the eldest son, and he didn't like Murong Jiu, the daughter-in-law. Even if Murong Jiu saved his life, his attitude was still very dull.

However, at the banquet today, the emperor said a lot of sincere praise for the two of them, and it seemed that he did not deliberately bring hatred to Jun Yuyan.

This should be related to the Queen Mother's love for Murong Jiu.

Moreover, after the Queen Mother gave Green Qi to Murong Jiu, the Emperor also rewarded her with many good things.

The emperor never glanced at Concubine Jing during the palace banquet. Instead, he often looked at and talked to the Queen Mother.

However, the Queen Mother spoke very little, only occasionally answering a few sentences, and there was no smile on her face.

Later, before the dinner was over, the Queen Mother left early, and the Emperor seemed to lose interest.

In fact, if you don't observe carefully, no one will notice the emotions between the emperor and the queen mother, especially an emperor like the emperor, who is overjoyed. This shows that the queen mother's presence really makes the emperor happy.

"Ajiu, when you asked me to send someone to Yingtian Academy before, did you want to tell me that my father is not really dissatisfied with the third child? And Concubine Jing, is it just that she is not favored on the surface?"

Jun Yuyan looked at her and said.

Murong Jiu didn't expect that he could think of this all at once, he was really smart.

She nodded and said, "My father's favorite concubine is Concubine Jing."

After saying that, she felt uneasy. After all, it was impossible for her to come into contact with her status. If Jun Yuyan asked, how should she answer?
Unexpectedly, Jun Yuyan seemed to be aware of her emotions, and without asking anything, he smiled and touched her head.

"Thank you Ajiu for being willing to tell me this."

Murong Jiu blinked: "Aren't you afraid that I will lie to you?"

"What are you afraid of? You are all mine, what good can you gain by lying to me? I know that Ah Jiu hopes that I will become the emperor, and I will definitely let Ah Jiu become the queen."

In the past, Jun Yuyan had no ambitions. He didn't care about the throne, and his false father-son love and brotherhood made him subconsciously hate the palace.

It's not that Concubine Qi doesn't care about his son, it's just that in her eyes, pampering comes first.

It's different now. Ah Jiu has high hopes for him, so it's time for him to fight for it.

Murong Jiu's cheeks felt hot and her heart beat like thunder. She was even too shy to look into his hot and gentle deep eyes.

She clearly knew how good the man in front of her was.

Jun Yuyan saw that she was thin-skinned and couldn't bear to tease her, so he changed the subject and asked her: "Does anyone else know about what Ah Jiu said?"

Murong Jiu shook his head: "Only the two palace maids around Concubine Jing knew about it, and all the insiders on Father's side were dealt with by Father."

The secret passage in the palace was built by the previous emperor to escape, and everyone who knew about it later was executed.

Having said this, she simply said: "There is a tunnel leading to Jing'an Palace under Father's Yangxin Palace, so although Father has never summoned Concubine Jing, the two of them should be able to see each other every day."

As soon as these words came out, even Jun Yuyan's pupils narrowed, showing a look of surprise.

"typical?"

Seeing Murong Jiu nodding seriously, he also began to think in his heart.

For a long time, he laughed lowly, a bit mockingly.

"So my mother-in-law is just a target for him to target the women in the harem?" Although it was hurtful, Murong Jiu nodded.

Concubine Qi is indeed just a target.

Everyone in the world thought that the emperor's favorite was Concubine Qi. They thought that she had been favored for ten years and that she was more popular than the queen in the harem.

But in fact, when the emperor loves a person, he protects her well. The other sons are all pawns. Only the child of him and his beloved woman is the prince he has already decided.

He let his other sons fight tit for tat and fight to the death. His favorite son stayed away from the dispute, waiting for the final battle between the snipe and the clam to make the fisherman's profit.

Jun Yuyan was very smart. He quickly figured out the cause and effect, with only a sarcastic sneer on his face.

His mother, for the so-called "favor", used his illness to win favor when he was young. When he was older, she asked him to make contributions. When he was disfigured and crippled, it was not that she never cried for him, but what she cried was that the crippled prince could not inherit the throne. thing.

Later, I started to dislike myself.

If she knew the truth, knew that her father had never had her in his heart, and made her a target to protect the woman he loved, I wonder if her life would collapse.

Murong Jiu didn't know how to comfort him, so she subconsciously placed her hand on his fist on his knee and clenched it gently.

Jun Yuyan was not sad. He unclenched his fist and held Murong Jiu's hand instead.

"Ajiu, it's nothing. I have long been accustomed to the false friendship of the royal family, and God treats me well. I have you and our children, right?"

"I, I will stay with you and will never betray you."

This was a promise that Murong Jiu could say.

Although they were not love words, in Jun Yuyan's heart, they made him a hundred times happier than love words.

He excitedly hugged Murong Jiu into his arms and whispered: "Ajiu, you have to remember every word you just said. If you can't do it, I will turn into a ghost and haunt you after I die..."

Murong Jiu hurriedly covered his mouth: "Don't say such unlucky words, I don't like hearing them!"

Maybe Jun Yuyan died too tragically in his previous life, and Murong Jiu didn't want to hear even a word of "death" about him.

"Okay, I won't say it."

Jun Yuyan smiled fondly.

As long as Ah Jiu is around and Ah Jiu has him in her heart, what does it matter if there are other family ties?

Murong Jiu listened to his strong and strong heartbeat, and the red clouds flew from her face, but her heart felt extremely peaceful.

Suddenly, she remembered something and asked quickly:

"Did you come to support me when the Queen Mother gave me the bracelet?"

"It's clear that the Imperial Grandmother herself likes you."

"Honestly, I guessed it."

Jun Yuyan laughed: "I really can't hide anything from Ah Jiu."

Murong Jiu pursed her lips and buried her head in his arms.

So in his previous life, he must have been looking for the Queen Mother.

But at that time, she was unaware of what Jun Yuyan had done for her.

She became more and more certain that Jun Yuyan died for her in his previous life.

Her nose was sour and her heart was sour. How could someone like her have Jun Yuyan's love?
