After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy

Chapter 152: It was just a joke from the late emperor

It’s over. If she is caught by the imperial concubine soon, how will she explain it?

Gulin didn't expect that the imperial concubine would suddenly notice his throat. He subconsciously reached out and touched it, and sure enough, he felt a clear tooth mark. He immediately pulled up his collar.

Looking at Gulin's cover-up, the imperial concubine's mind was frantically imagining what Gulin and a woman had done behind the tree just now.

She was mad with jealousy.

"Who is it?" The imperial concubine screamed and rushed behind the tree.

Gulin flashed and stopped her.

Seeing that Gulin cared so much about the woman behind the tree, the imperial concubine seemed to understand something. She yelled at him with jealousy in her eyes, "Gulin, how could you do such a thing? This is the imperial palace. How dare you do such a shameful thing in the palace?"

"What does it have to do with you?" Gulin's face was full of indifference, and the imperial concubine looked at him in disbelief.

She didn't expect Gulin to treat her like this. The more Gulin acted like this, the more she wanted to know who the woman behind the tree was who was so disregarding propriety and shame.

"Who is that person in there? I'm giving you one last chance, get out of here." The imperial concubine was blocked by Gulin and couldn't leave. She roared at the person behind the tree.

Jiang Xiyu was so frightened that her heart trembled violently and she dared not move.

The imperial concubine was so excited that she couldn't go out. If she was discovered, she would have no way to explain herself. Even if she managed to survive in the palace, Xu Rui would not let her go.

But now there is only a tree between them. Can she really hide there?

After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no movement behind the tree, the imperial concubine angrily said to the maid beside her, "Taozi, go and pull that bitch out for me."

Gulin Gulin narrowed his eyes sinisterly and shouted coldly, "May Day."

Wuyi pulled Taozi, who was about to rush out, behind a tree, gave her a warning look, and then flew out to block Taozi.

Seeing Gulin treat her like this for the woman behind the tree, the imperial concubine's face turned blue with anger. She stared at Gulin and asked angrily, "Who is hiding behind the tree? Who are you meeting with secretly?"

Being questioned again and again, Gulin exuded a cold aura.

"Noble Concubine, please understand your identity. In terms of identity, I am His Majesty's uncle, and you are just one of His Majesty's concubines. What qualifications do you have to question my affairs? In terms of status, you are just a concubine. When is it your turn to intervene in my affairs? In terms of relationship, you have to call me uncle when you see me. Don't say that I didn't do anything shameful. Even if I did, what does it have to do with you?"

The imperial concubine was struck by his words like a knife stabbing her heart. Her face turned pale and she stumbled back involuntarily. Tears instantly fell as she choked with sobs, "You, in your heart, this is who I am."

She has always treated Gulin as her lover, but he treated her as Gulin's concubine.

She had always thought that the reason why Gulin had never gotten married was because of her.

But now Gulin's words seemed like a slap in her face.

Gulin said coldly, "What else do you think it is? What connection do you have with me? It's just a joke from the late emperor. But that was also the late emperor's wishful thinking. This king has never agreed to it."

The imperial concubine's face was completely pale.

She always remembered the joke played by the late emperor. Later, he rescued her from the bandits and concealed the fact that she had fallen into the bandits' lair. She always thought that Gulin had feelings for her.

But now Gulin told her that everything was just her wishful thinking and it was just a joke.

Gulin showed no mercy and continued, "Back then, it wasn't Your Majesty who intervened. It was I who went to the late emperor first to tell him I didn't want to marry you, so Your Majesty went to the late emperor to ask for your hand in marriage, and the late emperor agreed."

The imperial concubine still didn't believe it and confirmed again, "What you said is true."

"It's absolutely true. There is no engagement between us. I have never treated you differently, let alone had any feelings for you. Everything is just your imagination. If not..."

Gulin's merciless words once again stabbed her heart like a knife. She asked tremblingly, "You, don't say anything more."

The concubine yelled at him.

Wuyi, who was standing next to him, looked at the imperial concubine with sympathy. He didn't expect that Gulin would not show any mercy to her in order to prevent Jiang Xiyu from misunderstanding.

Suddenly, there were footsteps behind her. Taozi was worried about the imperial concubine, but when she heard the sound, her face changed drastically and she grabbed the imperial concubine's clothes, "Imperial concubine, let's go quickly, someone is coming."

The imperial concubine was so sad that she couldn't hear her words and stopped where she was. Taozi was so anxious that she could only grab her wrist and pull her to the other side.

As soon as the imperial concubine left, Gulin immediately winked at Wuyi.

Wuyi understood and went over to stop the people outside from approaching.

Gulin walked behind the tree.

Jiang Xiyu leaned against the tree, his back already soaked with cold sweat.

As soon as she saw Gulin, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground. But before she could collapse, Gulin grabbed her wrist with one hand and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Thinking of what she had just heard, Jiang Xiyu's breathing became irregular for no reason. She immediately withdrew her hand, took a step back, lowered her eyes and bowed, saying, "This subject did not mean to eavesdrop on the secrets between the prince... and that person. I beg your forgiveness."

Jiang Xiyu was about to kneel down again when she was helped up by Gulin. As if he was afraid that she would kneel again, Gulin simply stretched out his arms and locked her in his arms.

"Your Highness..." Jiang Xiyu was shocked when she saw this and began to struggle hurriedly.

What is he doing?

Just now it might have been because of the situation, but what does he mean now?

Jiang Xiyu wanted to push Gulin away, but his arms were like iron rings, and her strength was like a tickle to Gulin.

"Don't move." Gulin not only did not let go of Jiang Xiyu, but instead closed his arms and hugged her tighter.

Jiang Xiyu didn't dare to move for a moment, but the two of them were very close at this moment, so close that his warm breath sprayed all over her smooth forehead without a drop leaking out. The strange tingling feeling made Jiang Xiyu tremble unconsciously.

Gulin clearly felt that she was afraid, and felt a little lost in an instant.

She is afraid of him.

Even more frightened than when facing the man with the silver mask,

When facing the man in the silver mask, she would struggle and resist, and would think of all kinds of ways, but now she could only tremble in his arms.

Gulin really doesn't like this feeling.

After hugging for a while, Gulin finally let go of Jiang Xiyu.

As soon as Jiang Xiyu regained her freedom, she staggered back several steps.

Gulin frowned and subconsciously moved closer to her.

Jiang Xiyu took a few steps back in fear again.

Gulin stopped moving forward and kept a distance from her.

"I have no secrets from her. Just as you heard, it was just a joke from the late emperor. No one took it seriously. She misunderstood it."
