QT: TPE Chapter 45.1

Xu Lingyi had a guess in her mind and was about to open it when the Emperor reached out and stopped her.

“My dear consort, please wait a moment. This gift is a bit bloody. Please prepare yourself so as not to frighten you.”

Xu Lingyi roughly knew what it was.

She wasn’t scared at all; on the contrary, she felt excited. She would be even happier if it were Princess Minghua’s head inside.

“Your Majesty, I am not afraid. My father is a great general. As his daughter, I am not afraid.”

Xu Lingyi reached out and opened the box; inside were indeed Li Xu’s eyes.

She was overjoyed, even to the point of tears, but she dared not show it. She simply looked down at the box, concealing her extraordinary excitement.

“I promised you before. My beloved concubine, are you happy?”

Xu Lingyi nodded emphatically; she was more than just happy.

The thought of Li Xu’s current miserable state filled her with a deep sense of satisfaction.

Only at this moment did she truly feel that the path she had chosen after being reborn was absolutely worthwhile.

She chose to enter the palace and chose the Emperor, who was more than twenty years older than her, old enough to be her father.

She was not without shame or burden in her heart.

But now she realized more clearly and distinctly that she did not make the wrong choice.

She had already taken her revenge on Li Xu.

Now only Princess Minghua remains.

She has a plan in mind: relying on the child in her womb and the fake pregnancy powder, it won’t be long before she can get rid of Princess Minghua.

Xu Lingyi sat on the bed and happily threw herself into the Emperor’s arms.

“Your Majesty, on what pretext did you punish this person?”

The Emperor quickly embraced her, saying, “My beloved consort and I are of one mind; we both utterly despise this man. Previously, he formed factions for personal gain, and I did not do anything. But I have collected evidence such as letters involving his collusion. I had originally intended to deal with him after some time, but…”

Thinking of Xu Lingyi’s desire for his eyes and recalling what happened last night, the Emperor felt somewhat guilty and thus imprisoned Li Xu in the imperial jail ahead of schedule.

Xu Lingyi hugged the Emperor’s neck and couldn’t help but kiss his cheek.

“Your Majesty, I love you so much.”

Of course, she likes him. He is the ruler of the world, the Emperor, the supreme ruler, and can easily take anyone’s life.

For example, right now, he could deal with Li Xu as easily as dealing with an ant.

If she hadn’t become his woman, dealing with Li Xu would have been far more difficult for her.

This is the power of authority; an emperor can execute anyone.

Unfortunately, her other enemy, Princess Minghua, had a very special identity.

She knew that it was quite difficult to get the Emperor to personally order the death of his beloved daughter, whom he had raised for over a decade.

But nothing in this world is difficult if you set your mind to it.

Xu Lingyi wanted to see Li Xu’s miserable state with her own eyes, to see how pathetic he, a man of such lofty ambitions, had fallen from grace to such a wretched state.

“Your Majesty, I wish to go to the Imperial Prison to see his current miserable state.”

The Emperor hesitated for a moment, somewhat concerned about her pregnancy: “He’s blind, and his appearance is frightening…”

Xu Lingyi shook her head, gently pleading with the Emperor, “Please, I’m not afraid. I promise you, I won’t frighten myself or my child. I really hate him. Before, the way he looked at me was so filthy, as if I would soon be his prey… I have nightmares just thinking about it. Only when I see his miserable state with my own eyes can I feel at ease.”
