"The Imperial Concubine, please stay!" Qi Baixing came forward and knelt in front of Ming Wudao.
Ming Wudao glanced at her lightly and said nothing.
Qi Baixing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and stood up, "Royal Princess, I know I was wrong! Can you..."
"Just clarify your matter with the Supreme Emperor yourself, it has nothing to do with me!" Ming Wudao shook off his clothes and continued to move forward.
She will not kill Qi Baixing, but will keep her to serve the Supreme Emperor.
The Supreme Emperor always needs people to serve him, and since that is what Qi Baixing wants, then let her do what she wishes.
"That's right." Suddenly, she stopped.
Qi Baixing, who was chasing after him, finally managed to stabilize his figure. His legs went weak and he fell to his knees again.
During these days, I have been kneeling every day, and my legs feel like they can’t control themselves.
"The Imperial Concubine, I didn't know how to praise you before..."
"You don't know about your mother's family's affairs, do you?" Ming Wudao interrupted her in a deep voice.
Hiding in this dark place all day long, it's not surprising that I don't know.
Qi Baixing was stunned and suddenly raised his eyes.
What happened to her family? Was their dealings with King Jin found out?
They did not participate in the rebellion, and the emperor does not intend to let them go?
"It seems that you were also involved in the matter." Ming Wudao raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "The entire Qi family was demoted and will never be an official."
"If you still want to save your life, serve the Supreme Emperor well! He is your only savior."
"Impossible!" Qi Baixing was shocked, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.
She had tried so hard just to get promotions for her family, so why did she end up like this in the end?
But now is not the time to be sad. She must find a way to leave. She is still young and should not give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope!
"Don't leave me here!" She crawled over, knelt down in front of Ming Wudao, and kowtowed vigorously, "Royal Concubine, I beg you."
"Go and beg the queen and say that I agree and that I am willing to be like Hong Lingling."
"I only want the position of county leader, and I don't want the rest. I promise that I will never bother the new emperor again."
Regardless of whether the Supreme Emperor knew about the forced palace or not, she could not stay.
She had had enough of the days when her neck felt cold.
She couldn't go back empty-handed, couldn't let her family down completely, and didn't want to be kicked out.
Winning the position of county head can not only protect oneself, but also ensure that the family will have no worries about food and clothing in the future.
She finally realized that the things in this imperial aristocracy were not something she could imagine. The routines in the inner courtyard and the back house were simply too childish in the palace.
"I don't want to be a queen, nor do I want any glory or wealth. Can't you satisfy such a simple request?"
"It's ridiculous!" Ming Wudao turned around and shook her away, "A palace maid who warms the bed of the Supreme Emperor dares to dream of being an emperor and empress?"
Qi Baixing got up, met her eyes, and shook his head.
"I don't want to anymore! I really don't want to anymore, Imperial Concubine, no one can help me except you now, please go and talk to the Queen, please!"
It was all the fault of Leng Xiao, a bitch. If it hadn't been for her, I wouldn't have had to compromise like this. Now I have no other choice, just leave.
"You didn't cherish the opportunity when the Queen gave you, and now you're asking for it. It's just wishful thinking!" Ming Wudao didn't want to waste time with this kind of person anymore, "Since you like the Supreme Emperor so much, just stay and serve him well. You are so young and beautiful. Maybe there’s still a chance, right?”
Leng Xiao gave her a chance, but she didn't know how to cherish it. Who can blame her?
If she had to blame it, she should blame her own damn greed. She was so greedy that she didn't know how much she was worth. She couldn't blame anyone else for her end.
