Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book Novel - Chapter 157
Chapter 157: The Empress of Ke Ruan
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
It was silent all around for a few seconds. Not to mention that the concubines didn’t dare to speak, even Ke Ruan was a little dazed. He subconsciously looked at the woman speaking at the same time with him.
The woman’s eyes were almost translucent black like the black gemstones. She had curved eyebrows and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Her fair and flawless skin took on a faint pink hue, and her thin lips were delicate like rose petals.
Her temperament was as gentle as water, but as inviolable as a noble swan.
According to the gesture, she was the former Empress he hadn’t met before.
‘Anyone would like such a girl, perhaps.’
Ke Ruan sighed silently, “Let’s go.”
The incident just now had been over, and the concubines looked at her with obvious mockery.
Ke Ruan didn’t look good either. ‘Do you really consider her as a blind person that she couldn’t see anything or a fool that she couldn’t feel your mockery?’
‘What’s the point in laughing at her? Her face is already several times better than yours. What gives you the confidence to laugh her?’
“Your Majesty, look, how beautiful the scenery is.”
Ke Ruan sneered, “What, you haven’t seen it before, right?”
The concubines had already entered the harem a long time ago. As for the little things between women, didn’t they just go to the imperial garden every day and show off their faces or their clothes?
The concubine who was retorted by Ke Ruan froze, but she couldn’t express it that her face was a little twisted.
Ke Ruan looked at her even more disdainfully and waved his hand, “Get out of the way. You’re blocking my view of the scenery. Didn’t you say that it’s pretty? I’ll take a look too.”
“Yes…” The woman lowered her head and turned to the side.
Ke Ruan looked at his former Empress. “You, come here and sit next to me.”
She walked over with her head lowered.
Ke Ruan asked, “What’s your name?”
The woman’s voice was as gentle as herself. “I’m Lin Jingsheng.”
“Lin Jingsheng?” Ke Ruan repeated it, then he smiled and said, “For the water is deep like the sea, it could keep quiet, and one could play the reed pipe wind instrument on the sea because it was calm. it’s a good name.”
Lin Jingsheng met his pair of bright eyes and suddenly blushed. “Thanks for your praise, Your Majesty. This is what my parents meant when they gave me the name.”
Ke Ruan was speechless. ‘Oh goodness, what the f**king title of the Empress.’
“I just know the poem by accident, which is very compatible with your personality.”
He said the truth.
Lin Jingsheng tightened her grip on the handkerchief, hiding under her long eyelashes was resentment and admiration.
Without Si Yuhan, she would have been his Empress. Ke Ruan would never have known that she had fallen in love with him who had been the young man who liked smiling a long time ago.
When she tried to make herself better to be worthy of him, all her expectations were broken by Si Yuhan.
How couldn’t she feel resentment?
Ke Ruan’s special treatment of Lin Jingsheng made the other concubines jealous. But when they thought about Ke Ruan’s identity, they felt that they didn’t know what to do.
He used to be their husband, but now…
Everything that happened in the imperial garden was seen by Si Yuhan’s eyes. As these women were talking to Ke Ruan, he had already appeared not far away, clearly seeing everything.
Naturally, he also saw how special Ke Ruan treated Lin Jingsheng and the admiration in Lin Jingsheng’s eyes.
His eyes instantly became cold. It seemed to be the worst decision he had made to let these women stay in the imperial palace.
“Qi Cheng!”
Qi Cheng stood by the side thinking about other things without any response. Seeing that there was no reply, he glanced sideways at him and called him again.
