Nan Zhi blushed instantly. She bit her full, moist lips and raised the cup in her hand: "Your Majesty, please drink some water."

Xiao Lanchuan thought he should calm her down first before making any plans.

He nodded and drank the water in his glass.

Nanzhi looked at the candlestick in his hand, somewhat puzzled.

He smiled and said, "It's too dark, I'm afraid you won't be able to see."

Nanzhi nestled in his arms, moved, and said he was so good to her.

Where Nan Zhi couldn't see, Xiao Lanchuan smiled sinisterly.

Just because he can't beat this woman doesn't mean he can't outmaneuver her.

He's going to kill her tonight.

They coaxed the person to the bed, waited for a while, and finally saw the other person close their eyes and breathe steadily and slowly.

He slowly raised his hand to pick up the candlestick beside him, but before he could reach it, a small hand suddenly touched his waist and abdomen.

His breath caught in his throat, thinking she had woken up again.

Looking back, I saw her sleeping soundly, muttering in her sleep, "Your Majesty, no more."

What do you not want?

Xiao Lanchuan didn't understand. He continued to touch the candlestick, and just as he was about to get it, he suddenly felt a weight on his thigh. The woman had actually lifted her foot and pressed it down on him.

hateful.

He was the emperor, how dare she treat him like this?!

He's determined to smash her to pieces, so she'll never dare to be arrogant again.

Just as he picked up the candlestick, he suddenly felt a strange sensation in his body—a hot, somewhat uncomfortable feeling.

He raised his hand to pry Nanzhi apart, but as soon as his hand touched her soft little hand, it was as if he was glued to her and couldn't let go.

She seemed to have a pleasant, subtle fragrance that kept drawing him closer.

He threw the candlestick aside as if possessed, grabbed her shoulder, and moved closer and closer to her.

His breathing became increasingly hot, and he clearly realized that something was wrong with him.

He tried hard to control it.

The girl, who had been fast asleep, suddenly opened her eyes.

She reached out and hooked her hand around his collar, her eyes sparkling with an indescribable charm.

The two were face to face, and Xiao Lanchuan's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat, his breathing becoming slightly erratic.

He finally realized that something was wrong.

There's something wrong with the water he's drinking!

This woman recognized him immediately!

He raised his hand and reached for her neck.

The other person was one step ahead of him, reaching out to wrap their arms around his neck, raising their chin to bite his lips.

Xiao Lanchuan paused.

He opened his eyes wide and stared intently at her.

The touch on his lips was warm, soft, and sweet. He wanted to push it away, but he couldn't.

She grew increasingly audacious, even kissing him down from his chin, biting his neck, and grabbing him with her hand...

"Your Majesty, Zhizhi loves you so much."

The whispers in his ear, like the song of a siren, made his breath catch and caused him to lose all reason.

A dangerous glint appeared in his eyes, and he ripped open her clothes.

...

Tsk, Nanzhi spent 99 points to redeem an aphrodisiac, and now she suddenly regrets it.

Normal Xiao Lanchuan is already a scoundrel, but a mad Xiao Lanchuan is even more of a scoundrel.

Later, if she hadn't grabbed a candlestick and knocked him unconscious, she really would have died.

Her body was covered in bite marks from him, and she was in excruciating pain. She spent some points to exchange for a healing potion, but seeing that her points were dwindling again, she couldn't contain her anger and punched Xiao Lanchuan twice more.

"You scumbag!!"

When Xiao Lanchuan woke up the next morning, he clearly felt unwell.

The aches and pains all over my body felt like I'd been punched hard.

He touched his aching head but couldn't feel any wound.

He glanced at Nanzhi, who was still fast asleep beside him; she seemed to be fine.

So what exactly happened last night?

Nan Zhi was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly hugged from behind. She instinctively thought it was Xiao Lan Chuan from her nightmare and kicked him off the bed.

There was a thud, and then there was no further response.

Nan Zhi felt uneasy and slowly realized something was wrong. She slowly turned to the side and saw Xiao Lanchuan sitting on the ground, staring at her with a meaningful look in his eyes.

She hurriedly stood up, her eyes red-rimmed, and rushed towards him: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I didn't mean it."

Xiao Lanchuan looked down at the woman in his arms and asked thoughtfully, "Was I acting strangely again last night?"

Nanzhi suddenly sobbed, "Yes, you last night, last night..."

Xiao Lanchuan released her, looking at her teary eyes, filled with grievance and sorrow.

He thought he had accidentally hurt her last night, so he turned her over and over, trying to find the wound.

The girl took his hand and gently placed it on his slightly protruding belly, her cheeks already flushed red.

"……It hurts here."

Xiao Lanchuan: ...

He wasn't that outrageous last night.

So it is...

Nanzhi met Jiang Cainu one afternoon.

At that time, Xiao Lanchuan went to discuss matters with the ministers.

Jiang Cainu gave her a string of carnelian, which was a gift from Xiao Lanchuan.

“I think this chalcedony suits you very well. Come on, put it on and see.”

Nanzhi smiled and returned the jade to her: "Thank you, Lady Cai, but I cannot accept this gift without having done anything in return."

She turned to leave, but Jiang Cainu suddenly grabbed her, "I have more, here, take them all."

Thinking that Nanzhi wasn't satisfied, she hurriedly went to remove the hairpin from her head.

Nanzhi knew what she meant.

Jiang Cainu was too greedy. She was afraid that someone else would conceive the imperial heir before her, so she wanted to bribe her.

Nanzhi shook her head in refusal and left resolutely.

Jiang Cainu watched her retreating figure and harbored resentment.

With nearly half a year having passed since the young ladies entered the palace, and none of them yet having conceived, the Empress Dowager was very anxious. Every day, she would either pray at the ancestral hall or at the Jin Guang Temple.
