664 Preparing To Set Up An Empire (2/2)
Meng LiGe and the others suppressed their laughter and walked forward to pay their respects to Ling Tian. Only then did Ling Tian put down his widespread arms and converse with those who came to welcome him while glaring hatefully at the three ladies. Hmph, I shall let you girls remain delighted for the time being. While I cannot do anything to you girls, just wait to see how little young n.o.ble Ling will torment you girls later. He has been saving his energy for a very long time! Hmph hmph hmph...
Ling Tian let out a crafty laugh in his heart as his eyes shone with a bright glow. This made Meng LiGe who was standing opposite him tremble slightly. Why is young n.o.ble looking at me with such a strange look? Could it be that he has stifled himself for far too long and is going to 'eat' whatever that comes his way?! Thinking about that, he could not help but have gooseb.u.mps all over and quickly escaped with an excuse.
In these few months, Ling Tian had truly been stifled badly. While he had Yu BingYan to accompany him in his short stay at Heavenly Wind, Yu BingYan's body was far too weak for him. Little young n.o.ble Ling could only begin to have his enjoyment and his beauty would plead for mercy and fall into a deep sleep. In the end, little young n.o.ble Ling could only stare at young n.o.ble Ling without having his excitement satisfied.
Such a feeling was truly even worse than not doing it at all...
When he was on the s.h.i.+p, he was even worse off. He was in seclusion for long periods of time and even if he went out for a breather occasionally, he would have to face the old man Justice who he could not afford to provoke. Even if he wanted to do that, he had no place to do it. Now that he had the chance to do that, it would definitely...
Ling Chen and the other two ladies who had their backs facing Ling Tian trembled slightly.
”Cousin Tian.” Princess JiaoYue had lost a great deal of weight during this period and looked much skinnier than before.
Ling Tian let out a sigh. This cousin of his had a gentle temperament and was prettier than her peers. She had always taken good care of Ling Tian since he was young and many of Ling Tian's childhood days were filled with the memories of this cousin. However, for some reason, Ling Tian could never have any feelings for her. Furthermore, he had personally dragged her father down from his throne and also turned his father crazy with his very hands. All of these...
That was Princess JiaoYue's biological father! Regardless of what unforgivable sin he committed and regardless of how scheming he was, since they were on opposing sides, there was nothing wrong with how Ling Tian had treated him. However, now that Princess JiaoYue was in the picture, it was truly extremely awkward for him.
Everyone in the world knew Princess JiaoYue from the original Sky Bearing Empire was Ling Tian's woman. Furthermore, she was his first official woman. While everyone in the empire understood the intentions behind Long Xiang's betrothal of Princess JiaoYue to Ling Tian, it was also because of this that everyone in the empire knew that Princess JiaoYue was Ling Tian's woman. At times, Ling Tian wanted to just ignore everything that has happened. However, he just couldn't be at ease whenever facing JiaoYue.
It wasn't guilt. Ling Tian would never feel guilty about this matter and Long Xiang wasn't worthy of Ling Tian feeling guilty. He wouldn't regret his actions either and he would make the same choice even if he has to make it ten times. However, he just had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Seeing JiaoYue receiving him at the entrance of the Ling Family Courtyard, this represented Duke Ling and Old Madam Ling's att.i.tude towards JiaoYue!
Ling Tian's woman.
She was someone that Ling Tian had to admit even if he did not want to!
Haiz! How frustrating. Thinking about the scene of JiaoYue staying in his yard and muttering to herself when he returned to the Ling Residence, his heart could not help but cramp up slightly.
”Cousin.” Ling Tian looked at her calmly, ”After not seeing you for so long, you have become skinnier.”
”Really? I don't think so.” Princess JiaoYue's eyes were fuzzy and she continued, ”After not seeing cousin for such a long time, you have become more mature.” The awkwardness between them was something that they could both feel.
”Ah ah, when walking around in the pugilistic world, I have to spend my nights in the outdoor and eat whatever that comes my way. After experiencing so much, I will naturally seem older.” Ling Tian let out a joke before turning around and saying, ”Don't stand outside so foolishly, let us all go in. I still have things to discuss with all of you.”
As the ladies heard those words, they revealed a look of their little plot being fulfilled. Even Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou who just returned chuckled together with the other girls as they entered the Courtyard. By the door, only Ling Tian and Princess JiaoYue were left behind.
Mmm? Even they are trying to give JiaoYue a chance to spend some alone time with me? Just... what is going on?
Isn't this far too strange?!
Ling Tian was truly puzzled. Why are all these jealous ladies suddenly so different today?
What Ling Tian didn't know was that before JiaoYue's arrival, Old Madam Ling had already gathered Ling Chen and Li Xue to have a long conversation with them and introduced JiaoYue to them. Especially how she had no one to rely on and how she was deeply in love with Ling Tian.
Furthermore, Old Madam Ling was extremely clear that of all the women around Ling Tian, the only one who was capable of influencing Ling Tian was Ling Chen. Ling Chen had never requested anything from Ling Tian and would only silently put forth effort for Ling Tian. Because of this, the moment Ling Chen opened her mouth, regardless of what her request was, Ling Tian would definitely treat it seriously. As long as Ling Chen had a request, Ling Tian would definitely hear her request!
The other individual was Li Xue. Old Madam Ling did not understand where this lady came from and what kind of background she had. In fact, she did not even understand why Ling Tian trusted her so much. This also allowed Old Madam Ling to understand that the influence Li Xue had was no less than Ling Chen in certain areas.
For JiaoYue to receive the recognition of Ling Tian, the largest barrier wasn't her grandson but Ling Chen and Li Xue. The only important thing was for the two of them to agree. On the contrary, if these two girls do not agree, even if she had a thousand brilliant plans, it was useless! At the same time, Ling Tian's personal opinion wasn't too important. As long as these two ladies agreed, Ling Tian had to agree even if he wasn't willing.
In her heart, Old Madam Ling cared for her granddaughter greatly and the happiness of her granddaughter was also her wish. Furthermore, with the other party being her only grandson, Old Madam Ling was naturally willing to make this marriage happen. While it wouldn't be possible for her to become empress, it wouldn't be a bad thing for her to be a consort. Furthermore, JiaoYue's gentle character truly wasn't suited to become an empress.
Old Madam Ling's eyesight was indeed accurate and she was also extremely clear about the influence of her words. She was certain that Ling Chen and Li Xue would definitely agree to her as long as she the one to open her mouth. After all, she was Ling Tian's biological grandmother!
Everything had turned out as Old Madam Ling had predicted. With Ling Chen's gentleness, she naturally wouldn't voice any objections. As for Li Xue, no matter how unbridled she was, she was completely helpless in the face of Ling Tian's grandmother. She still had to accept Old Madam Ling's request with a face full of smiles! Even though Miss Li Xue was extremely against this feudalistic family structure!
In truth, Miss Li Xue had also seen things through already. Ling Tian was someone destined to be the emperor and he will probably have many more women in the future. She might as well gather all of her sisters together to prevent Ling Tian from having any more ladies in the future. If that's the case, why would she be so foolish to defy Old Madam Ling?
After coming into contact with JiaoYue, Li Xue had also gradually begun to pity this gentle and cla.s.sic beauty. They had already begun making plans and the moment Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou returned, their plans would be implemented.
This was also the reason why they were so excited when they saw Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou.
How would Ling Tian who was being hidden in the dark know of all this? He was still fantasizing about finding a chance to have a threesome or foursome with all of his ladies and let his little young n.o.ble have a good battle. How could he have imagined that his own s*xual happiness had already been listed as something for them to strictly control?
