Chapter 272 The World of Mad Men and Mad Women 8
When Jiang Chunxi walked into the imperial study holding a cup of tea, the emperor's eyes were immediately attracted, but he still pretended not to care.
"Your Majesty, please have some tea." Jiang Chunxi came before the emperor, lowered her head, and presented the tea to him.
The emperor did not take the tea immediately, intending to leave Jiang Chunxi alone.
After a while, Jiang Chunxi's arms began to tremble slightly. After all, lifting a teacup was very strenuous.
The emperor was a man who was always sympathetic to women. Seeing Jiang Chunxi's arms trembling slightly, he naturally didn't want to let the beauty suffer, so he pretended to be reluctant and took the teacup: "You can't even serve tea properly, do you think you look like a servant?"
"It's because I'm a kind and benevolent monarch. Otherwise, a palace maid like you who is so clumsy would definitely be dragged out and chopped off."
Jiang Chunxi was so frightened that her body collapsed and she sat on the ground. When she raised her head, her eyes were filled with tears and she looked sad and beautiful: "Your Majesty, I...I didn't mean it. Since Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch, can you let me go back to the clothing department?"
The emperor was originally very distressed, but when he heard Jiang Chunxi say this, he immediately became angry again: "You are simply so bold, do you think I will not do anything to you, so you dare to challenge the imperial power so recklessly."
"I don't have one," Jiang Chunxi cried, "My wish since I was a child is to find a good man and be in love with him. If I become the emperor's concubine, I will have to compete with so many women for the emperor's favor, and that is exactly what I don't want to do. So I would rather marry an ordinary person and live a simple life than become the emperor's concubine for the so-called glory and wealth."
"Your Majesty, you already have so many concubines, and even a childhood sweetheart like Concubine Xian whom you truly love and care for, but why do you still insist on having me? Do you know that forcing others to do so will make me look down on you?"
"You... you are simply outrageous." The emperor was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He pointed at Jiang Chunxi and said:
"If Your Majesty insists on saying that I am presumptuous, then I am!" Jiang Chunxi said in an unreasonable tone, "Anyway, I just don't want to serve Your Majesty. If Your Majesty really wants to chop off my head, then go ahead."
"You...you..." The emperor was so angry that he couldn't speak. He took a deep breath and said angrily, "You just think I love you, so you dare to be so reckless and ignore me. Do you really think I dare not kill you? Even if I really can't bear to kill you, can I be reluctant to touch your family?"
"Your Majesty, do you really have to force me like this?" Jiang Chunxi looked at the emperor in anger. "You know how much I value my family, but you keep using my family to threaten me. This is what you mean by cherishing me. If Your Majesty really cares about me, how could you be willing to use my family to threaten me?"
"Wuwu!" Jiang Chunxi cried out, "I know that I am of humble status, but does that mean I cannot have my own wishes? Your Majesty is not my beloved, so why must you ask me to serve you?"
"You haven't tried to understand me, so how can you know that I am not your good man?" The emperor softened his tone, "I promise you that I will treat you well in the future. I will also bless your family and let them enjoy wealth and glory. If you really care about your family, don't you want them to live a good life?"
Immediately, the emperor stood up and helped Jiang Chunxi up from the ground. Seeing that Jiang Chunxi did not resist his touch, the emperor was so happy: "Okay, stop crying. Seeing you crying like this, I am so heartbroken."
As he spoke, the emperor gently wiped Jiang Chunxi's tears.
Jiang Chunxi, on the other hand, acted as if she was stunned.
The emperor frowned slightly: "What's wrong with you?"
"No one has ever been so gentle to me, so I can't react." As she said this, Jiang Chunxi lowered her head shyly.
The emperor's mouth was about to split open. What did he say? With a handsome man like him and the supreme emperor, how could any woman not fall for him?
The emperor lifted Jiang Chunxi's chin with his hand and said, "You are so shy, but you look very beautiful when you are shy."
"Your Majesty," Jiang Chunxi said shyly, "Please stop teasing me. Your Majesty looks like a pervert right now. He is so bad."
Dian Gong also has his advantages. At least it is very easy to deal with Dian Gong. As long as you can find his itch and add a beautiful face, you can be as pretentious as you want.
"Haha!" The emperor laughed joyfully, "Then I have something even worse, would you like to try it?"
Jiang Chunxi's face immediately turned pale, and she pushed the emperor, causing him to stagger back two steps and almost fall to the ground.
"You are so presumptuous! Are you trying to kill the king?" the emperor said angrily.
"I...I didn't mean it," Jiang Chunxi said with tears falling. "I don't know what happened just now. I pushed the emperor with my hand under my control, but I really didn't mean it."
Seeing Jiang Chunxi crying, the emperor couldn't help but feel distressed again, because Jiang Chunxi's face was the kind that would make men feel distressed.
"I didn't mean to do anything to you, why are you crying?" The emperor's tone became a little aggrieved. "I am the ruler of a country and was almost pushed down by you. Can't I scold you? But you are so good. I haven't even scolded you yet, but you started crying first, as if I bullied you."
"But the emperor's look and tone just now really scared this servant," Jiang Chunxi said aggrievedly, "I was so scared that my heart is still beating wildly. I feel like my heart is about to jump out."
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have scared you just now," the emperor quickly softened his tone and coaxed, "But are you really that unwilling to serve me?"
"In fact, the biggest reason why I don't want to serve the emperor is because of Concubine Xian," Jiang Chunxi said, pretending to be ready to give it her all. "Concubine Xian is a lunatic, a treacherous villain who only knows how to slander others. She wants to kill me when I'm just a palace maid. If I become the emperor's concubine, I can't even imagine what dirty tricks Concubine Xian will use to deal with me."
"In short, I am really afraid of Concubine Xian. I don't want to become the emperor's concubine and be on guard against Concubine Xian all day long, for fear that if I am not careful, Concubine Xian will kill me."
"Woo woo! I haven't seen my family for six years. I don't want to be harmed by Concubine Xian one day and never see my family again. If the emperor really loves me, please let me go! I am really afraid of that crazy Concubine Xian."
