Su Tiyue nudged him with her hand: "His Majesty has just returned to the palace. I imagine there are many affairs in the court. It would be inappropriate to do... that kind of thing now."

She blushed and politely declined.

No matter how urgent it is, it has to wait until tonight, right?

Su Tiyue turned to look out the window; it wasn't even dark yet...

Moreover, Xiao Heye had just returned from the battlefield, and it seemed that he hadn't bathed for quite some time.

Seeing him recklessly lunge forward, those large hands began to stir restlessly...

Su Tiyue quickly stopped him, saying, "It's still not possible... His Majesty has been on the march these past few days and probably hasn't had the opportunity to bathe. You're probably very dirty..."

"You think I'm dirty?" Xiao Heye asked in a sinister tone.

Su Tiyue wasn't afraid of angering him, and said in a sweet voice, "Your Majesty is dirty and smelly..."

“But I washed my clothes by the river before I came back this morning, and they are clean.” Xiao Heye has always been a clean person and always keeps himself clean and tidy, unless the environment is particularly harsh.

Su Tiyue frowned, but didn't say anything more.

Men and women are generally different.

When they were on campaign, they would go shirtless and enjoy the gifts of nature whenever there was a river or stream.

Seeing that she was still unwilling, Xiao Heye, though it was painful to endure, did not continue.

Just then, Li Xun asked quietly from outside the door, "Your Majesty, dinner is ready. Would you like to dine now or...?"

Li Xun was also clever; he guessed that Xiao Heye must have something important to do when he brought Su Tiyue back.

Therefore, Li Xun only came to ask if they had finished their business and that they could have their meal later.

Xiao Heye sat up and replied, "Let's do it now. We need to eat our fill to have the energy..."

Su Tiyue: ...?

She didn't like hearing those words. It seemed that Xiao Heye was using all his energy on her, regardless of whether he had eaten or not.

After dinner, Su Tiyue said she wanted to go see the jasmine flowers he had planted.

So the two of them went for a stroll hand in hand.

After leaving Yelan Pavilion and walking past Taiye Pond, the two headed towards the Imperial Garden and the Lakeside Pavilion.

It seems that their presence has been felt in every corner of the palace.
