Marrying a concubine to seduce him and lure him into the game

Chapter 126 Breaking the Principles

The Princess of Qi fell to the ground. She looked up at the King of Qi. His eyes were red and his face was full of anger. He was completely different from the gentle and elegant King of Qi in the eyes of the outside world.

At this moment, Princess Qi felt unprecedented strangeness and fear.

Looking back, she, who came from a prominent family, had countless choices for marriage, but she was moved by the scene on the street - the King of Qi picked up her fallen hairpin, and his gentleness and elegance were deeply imprinted in her heart, making her choose him without hesitation.

The eldest brother of the family had strongly opposed it. He warned earnestly: "The King of Qi is not a good match. If you marry him, it will be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."

However, she firmly believed in her own judgment and thought that her elder brother had misunderstood the King of Qi.

"I believe in the character of the King of Qi. Even if the road ahead is difficult, I will accept it with pleasure." Her persistence made her eldest brother shake his head and sigh, and finally he had no choice but to let go.

She got her wish and became the Princess of Qi.

At first, their life was sweet and harmonious, and she even felt that her brother's worries were completely unnecessary.

Until one day, she saw with her own eyes the King of Qi severely punishing a servant for a trivial matter...

At that moment, she finally understood the true meaning of the "fire pit" that her eldest brother had mentioned, but it was too late for her to realize it.

Now, she could only bite the bullet and fully support the King of Qi, hoping that he could ascend to the throne and she could become the queen mother of the country, so as to prove that her choice was not wrong.

The Princess of Qi tried to force out a smile and tried to comfort the Prince of Qi: "Your Highness, today is not a complete waste. Concubine Su's behavior seems to have not won the favor of Prince Yi, so she is so evasive."

The King of Qi frowned and thought for a moment: "She already knows our intentions. What if she goes back and tells the King of Yi..."

Princess Qi interrupted, "Your Highness, if it could be accomplished, it would have been accomplished long ago. If it has not been accomplished, there must be something unspeakable."

The King of Qi said in a somewhat strange tone: "The reason is very simple. My sixth brother is devoted to Buddhism and does not want to break the precepts."

"The truth will eventually come out." Princess Qi sighed.

The King of Qi's expression eased slightly. Su Rao's pretty face appeared in his mind. He imagined her panic and helplessness and actually found it somewhat interesting.

……

Su Rao followed Su Yi back to her residence and closed the door, blocking out all the noise from the outside world.

Su Yi carefully checked Su Rao, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was safe and sound, but his brows were still heavy.

"Rao'er, what is going on?" Su Yi's voice was low and serious.

Su Rao knew that hiding the truth was meaningless, so she confessed everything: "Sister, Prince Yi and I didn't actually complete our wedding."

Su Yi was shocked when she heard this. Her face gradually turned pale. She whispered in disbelief: "How could this happen..."

"It was fine before, but recently the King of Qi seemed to have become suspicious and kept testing me. Today, the actions of the Princess of Qi were obviously orders. First, she drugged me and then asked the maids in the palace to check me. Fortunately, I was alert and escaped, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." Su Rao explained in detail.

After hearing this, Su Yi was also still frightened. The two sisters looked at each other in silence, and the room was filled with a heavy and complicated atmosphere.

However, escape is not a long-term solution. The once powerful King Qi will never easily let go of anyone who challenges his authority.

Su Rao, what are your plans for this? The moonlight was like a stream of silk, sprinkling on Su Rao's pretty face. She pursed her cherry lips tightly, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes: "The only way to survive is to ask King Yi for help."

……

As the night fell and the stars twinkled, a graceful woman stood silently in front of Prince Yi's mansion. She was wearing a long dress that looked like flowing clouds, the hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind, outlining her graceful figure.

"My Lord, it is already late at night. I have come to accompany you through this long night."

Her voice was smooth and irresistible.

Prince Yi was wearing a luxurious robe, and his handsome face looked even more stern in the night, but when his eyes fell on the woman, they softened unconsciously.

He walked out slowly, each step carrying a majesty and charm that could not be ignored.

Su Rao walked lightly into the mansion, closed the door carefully, then slowly walked towards Prince Yi and gently wrapped her arms around his strong waist.

His body was like a mountain, almost completely encompassing her petite body, making her feel an unprecedented sense of security.

Prince Yi's eyes became profound. The soft touch of the beauty in his arms made the fire in his heart rise quietly, and his throat rolled unconsciously.

He slowly raised his hand and gently placed it on her slender waist. The desire from the inside out was like a prairie fire. Reason and emotion clashed fiercely in his body, and the iceberg of reason was defeated by the fanatical flames.

His arms around her waist tightened unconsciously because of his inner struggle.

Su Rao felt the force that could almost embed into her hand bones, and she twisted gently, trying to break free.

"Your Highness, we must be careful. The King of Qi's men may be lurking outside the door." She lowered her voice and reminded.

She knew very well that Prince Yi's visit was not really for her, but to stage a play with her in order to completely put an end to Prince Qi's delusion.

However, Prince Yi's hand did not relax, Su Rao called out again: "Prince..."

Is all this really just a show?

Prince Yi suddenly woke up, feeling an inexplicable emptiness in his heart.

"I understand." His voice was a little hoarse.

Outside the door, a pair of sharp eyes were peeping into the house through the crack in the door. It was none other than the King of Qi himself.

The King of Qi hid in a secluded corner on the second floor, looking down from above, with a clear view of the scene downstairs, while he himself was hidden in the darkness.

He witnessed the two people leaning against each other in the candlelight, their lingering intimacy, and felt mixed emotions.

The candlelight gradually went out and the night became darker, but there seemed to be an indescribable feeling lingering in the air.

The King of Qi's face became increasingly gloomy. The knuckles of his fingers, which were tightly gripping the teacup, turned white from excessive force, and a fierce look flashed between his brows.

Zhao Huaijue, did you really break your principles?

……

The next morning, Su Rao quietly left Prince Yi's Mansion. The scene that seemed affectionate to outsiders was actually a one-man show that she had to carry on alone.

Fortunately, she had made careful arrangements and did not need to worry about the maids' interrogation. A stone in her heart finally fell to the ground, and she felt a little more at peace.

As soon as she returned to her residence and was about to take a rest, the empress dowager's order came, summoning her and her sister Su Yi to Shoukang Palace.

In Shoukang Palace, Princess Qi was enjoying breakfast with the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother ignored them and the sisters. Instead, Princess Qi waved at them slightly. The indifference of the previous moment disappeared in an instant, as if nothing had happened.

Su Rao's mind was as clear as a mirror and she didn't bother to care. Her sister Su Yi would take care of the socializing.

Su Yi pulled Su Rao forward, bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother, and exchanged greetings with the Princess of Qi.

The Queen Mother glanced at Su Rao with disdain in her tone.
