The implication is - are you willing to be my woman?

Zhu Xianyue naturally agreed.

But... it hurts!

She grimaced in pain!

"This servant... has an ugly face... I'd better not pollute the emperor's eyes..."

After she finished speaking, she fainted.

Wei Yinian picked her up horizontally and carried her to the nearest palace - Furong Palace.

And summoned the imperial physician.

As for Gao Qingqing, he was sent to the torture chamber to do hard labor.

-

Wei Yinian has the best scar removal cream in Yichao.

Ever since his mother died in the fire, he has been concerned about how to heal burns.

If a son wants to support his parents but they are no longer around, no matter how well he does, his mother will not be able to feel it.

Now that he met this young palace maid from the laundry department, he had a reason to take out the ointment.

He even felt that Zhu Xianyue was a gift from God to him.

Their meeting was God's compensation for his mother's death in childhood.

Little did they know that all these coincidences were intentional by Zhu Xianyue...

She would just feel a little pain, but she would gain Wei Yinian's attention as a palace maid and get rid of Gao Qingqing.

Very cost-effective.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, cough cough..." Her throat was very dry after she just woke up.

Wei Yinian asked someone to bring some warm water and fed it to her personally.

Zhu Xianyue lowered her head shyly. Because of nervousness, warm water accidentally flowed out from the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were also a little red and swollen, like a weak and vulnerable little rabbit.

"Don't call yourself a slave anymore. I'll appoint you as a concubine. From now on, you will live in this Hibiscus Palace."

He used his hand to lift the loose hair by Zhu Xianyue's ear.

When my fingertips touched her skin, it felt inexplicably itchy.

The face was as white as porcelain jade, and he was reluctant to take his hands away.

It slid down her cheek and touched Zhu Xianyue's plump but sickly pink lips.

Caress gently.

"Hmm~"

Hearing the woman's moans, he could no longer control himself.

He leaned over and kissed her hard!

——Zhu Xianyue’s injury was behind her right ear, but it didn’t affect kissing.

She pretended to be clumsy and let the man roll around in her lips.

From time to time, I tried to give some response.

This made Wei Yinian even more popular.

But in the end, he remembered that Zhu Xianyue was injured and had just experienced the emotional turmoil of breaking up with her former friend, so he did not take her at this time.

Instead, he served the meal.

After dinner, he also stayed here.

At night, the two of them slept in their clothes and didn't do much.

But Wei Yinian actually felt that this was the most peaceful night's sleep he had had in all these years...

-

The ranks of concubines in the Yi Dynasty harem were: Empress - Imperial Noble Consort - Noble Consort - Consort - Imperial Concubine - Maid - Constant Servant - Maid.

Wei Yinian is not interested in matters concerning women.

The most respected harem in the world is Empress Dou Lanruo. Dou Lanruo is the niece of the empress dowager, but she has no blood relationship with Wei Yinian because Empress Dowager Dou is not Wei Yinian's biological mother.

Dou Lanruo was of a weak disposition. She taught the harem to value harmony and often consulted the empress dowager when encountering problems. Although she did not accomplish anything great, she did not make any mistakes either.

Below the Queen is the Imperial Concubine Shi Shiyu.

Shi Shiyu comes from a prominent family. She has been well-read since childhood and her yangqin playing is unique in the world.

Influenced by female virtues, she respected Empress Dou Lanruo; but she had a strong sense of hierarchy and looked down upon people of humble origins the most.

Below the two, there was only one pregnant concubine, Ran.

Concubine Ran was of humble origins, her father being a minor official.

But she is lucky and is now four months pregnant.

Her abdomen was bulging, larger than that of an average woman who was four months pregnant.
