"Why are you so unlovable? Can't you see that I sent Lin Lang to provoke you to come here on purpose?"
Biting him, she smiled charmingly and said that she didn't care about his scheme at all.
Ji Wenyuan felt the pain and endured it.
After a moment of silence, he said coldly, "Your Majesty is really good at scheming!"
Her scheme wasn't serious. He had already started the plan ahead of time.
Perhaps when they left the Chunlu Palace, the day would change.
"Minister Ji, do you still dare to say that you don't like me now?" Xia Ling's eyes had a smile in them. Her gaze was moving and very subtle.
Ji Wenyuan looked at her proud face again and again. His eyes were dark.
It was as if he wanted to imprint her smile in his mind at this moment.
"I like... I like Your Majesty." Ji Wenyuan finally confessed.
...
It was a moment of lustful pleasure.

When she woke up, she had been cleaned and put on a fitting middle-sized shirt.
Lin Lang and a few female generals were locked beside her. Their faces were pale, and there was blood in the gaps of their armor. The pungent smell of blood could be smelled.
Seeing her wake up, Lin Lang was first angry.
"Your Majesty! You are finally awake! Your Majesty, that scoundrel Ji Wenyuan didn't poison you, did he?"
"Poison? Why would he poison me?" Xia Ling frowned.
She looked puzzled, but looking at Lin Lang and this close female general, she already understood.
Ji Wenyuan had launched a rebellion in advance.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Ji... Bah, Ji Wenyuan is up to no good. He has already set up many people in the palace. We were waiting in the Spring Dew Palace to guard Your Majesty, But unexpectedly, we didn't dare to act rashly. The entire palace was occupied by JI Wenyuan's men!"
"We wanted to protect your majesty and rush out, but unexpectedly, the rebel army took control of all the city gates in the palace. We were protecting your unconscious majesty, so we could only retreat to the Spring Dew Palace and defend here."
Lin Lang's expression darkened as she spoke.
Defend here? They were surrounded here, right?
Listening to the noise outside the palace, there was the sound of armor rubbing against each other, as well as the sound of swords clashing against armor.
"Your Majesty, don't be afraid! Even if we have to fight to the death, we will never let that thief capture Your Majesty," Lin Lang said sternly.
Looking at Lin Lang's loyal appearance, Xia Ling was really touched.
However, this matter could not be reversed with Lin Lang's bravery.
Xia Ling advised, "Lin Lang, don't be like this. Even if the rebels attack, you must keep your lives and live on. Only by living can you continue to stay by my side and protect me for the rest of my life."
Lin Lang was silent, and the few female generals beside her were also silent.
From the looks of it, they had entered a dead end and did not listen to Xia Ling's words.
Big words, just how good a country was it worth their lives to protect?
As the empress of big words, Ni Huang was not competent at all. Letting a prime minister take charge of a country's affairs while she indulged in fun was the doing of a stupid monarch.
Xia Ling looked at them and stood up.
There was a row of medicine shelves at the rear of the Chunlu Palace.
Hearing the sound of movement outside the Chunlu Palace, Xia Ling took the medicine and handed it to Lin Lang and the female generals.
"Lin Lang, you are injured. Quickly apply some medicine."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Lang and the female generals were very grateful.
However, this medicine could indeed stop pain and stop bleeding. However, when Xia Ling took the medicine, she mixed some unconscious medicine powder and sprinkled it in front of them.
She used a soaked handkerchief to cover her breathing. When she heard the footsteps of Ji Wenyuan and his men, she threw the handkerchief aside and allowed herself to be knocked out by the medicine powder.

Xia Ling opened her eyes again.
She had changed into another set of clothes, but she was brought to Yangxin Palace from Chunlu Palace.
Yangxin palace was her usual residence.
But now, with the change of political power, the palace that originally belonged to her was now occupied by Ji Wenyuan.
Neon Phoenix liked the fiery red color the most. Chunlu Palace had been turned into that color by her, and Yangxin Palace was even more so.
Xia Ling felt a little irritated after seeing too much red.
But now, there was no need for her to do anything. Someone had already changed it for her.
The layout of Yangxin Palace did not change much, but from the bed to the gauze curtains, everything was changed to a plain color.
The plain white tones, from the gauze curtains to the tiles, were all arranged very elegantly. The wind blew from outside the doors and windows. The gauze curtains in the palace were tinkling, like layers of pear blossoms in full bloom. It was very beautiful, and it was very comfortable to live in.
This kind of arrangement was very artistic, and Xia Ling liked it very much.
Compared to dressing herself up like a fiery bird and wearing rings and bangles, Xia Ling preferred this kind of comfortable dress.
Her long hair was scattered, and the clothes on her body had been changed into a light-colored palace skirt.
Judging from the style, this slanted skirt was not the clothes of the Great Yan Kingdom, but the style of the Ji kingdom.
From left to right, a belt was tied around the right side of the waist. The light blue skirt was layered on top of each other, beautiful and elegant.
Xia Ling looked at the bronze mirror.
