Chapter 67: The hatred of the crippled Queen
Author: Thirteen pure onesMachine Translation
It was not like Shangguan Ling was ugly.
Other than the experience of two failures, after that, Shangguan Ling was the embodiment of the perfect lover that Yin Tingyan was looking forward to in his heart.
There was no need to go into details about being noble in front of others and being a queen in front of others.
Therefore, as time passed, Yin Tingyan's psychology had changed.
On the surface, he was still indifferent to Xia Ling, but in the dark, Yin Tingyan was stubborn on the surface and he could not sleep at night without hugging Xia Ling.
He thought that he had covered up these changes seamlessly, but in reality, Xia Ling was well aware of it. She just did not expose it.
She was not in a hurry or panic. Yin Tingyan was a fish that had fallen into her trap. She was waiting for him to completely fall into the net.

Phoenix Perch Palace.
Yin Tingyan got up from the hot spring pool and put on his clothes.
Counting the days, the foreign beauty was about to arrive. Xia Ling got up.
Her smooth body stood behind Yin Tingyan and helped Yin Tingyan put on his outer robe.
Yin Tingyan's thin lips twitched.
After Xia Ling put on his outer robe, he slapped her hand away.
He said coldly, "Empress, please have some self-respect!"
"Self-respect?" Xia Ling raised her eyebrows and curled her lips. "Self-respect weighs 40 kilograms. Why? Did it weigh you down?"
"47 kilograms? What is this?" Yin Tingyan was a little confused.
Seeing his confused expression, Xia Ling finally remembered that Yin Tingyan was the second emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Not to mention measuring, there was not even a unified language here. The county and village were separated by three to four Li, but they did not speak the same language.
Xia Ling: "Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. One kilogram is one kilogram, which is used to weigh our southwest Miao Gu. It's the same as Great Xia's city, Jin, and Liang."
"It's for weighing? " Yin Tingyan was deep in thought. "Why don't you tell me about it?"
Unified measuring was something that every emperor would do in the early days of the empire's establishment. But now, Yin Tingyan hadn't met that beauty, so he naturally couldn't obtain the wisdom from 'modern times'.
"Alright, come tonight, I'll tell you about it." Xia Ling smiled.
Yin Tingyan: "..."
In the end, he still went with her.
The two of them sat on the bed. Xia Ling found a palace maid and asked her to bring two eggs from the imperial kitchen.
The jade plate was filled with two raw eggs, making the eggs look very cute.
Xia Ling picked up the eggs and weighed them in her hand. She asked Yin Tingyan, "Do you know what these are?"
Yin Tingyan looked at her and then at the plate. "Eggs?"
"Yes, they are eggs! But do you think they are just ordinary eggs?" Xia Ling smiled casually. With a mysterious look on her face, she placed the two eggs in one hand and weighed them.
Then, she took Yin Tingyan's hand and placed the two eggs in his palm.
Xia Ling: "Can you feel it?"
Looking at Xia Ling, Yin Tingyan imitated her earlier action and weighed the eggs in his hand.
Xia Ling: "Can you feel the weight?"
"Oh, so it's the weight!"
Yin Tingyan regained his composure: "I can feel it! Two eggs, not too heavy, about...four taels!"
He could even weigh them!
Xia Ling looked at him in admiration. Then, she concluded, "According to our Miao Gu family's weighing method, lifting these two eggs is the strength of two oxen, and one oxen is about 0.204 grams? These two eggs are equivalent to our 0.408 kilograms!"
