Chapter 99: This King Doesn’t Like Lightness, He Likes Heaviness
Cheng Shuyi put another mattress on the two children's beds and soaked their feet before going to bed.
Even though they were sweating during the day, Shengjing was completely cold at night.
This is just an ordinary house, without the legendary underground fire dragon.
If it gets any colder, we’ll have to burn charcoal day and night.
Cheng Shuyi walked to the gate and looked towards the entrance of the alley.
Pei Yanli went to the palace in the evening and has not returned yet.
I don’t know what’s going on in the palace?
She only waited for a while, and when the wind became too strong, she closed the door and went back to her room to wait.
In the middle of the night, the early winter rain began to fall.
Cheng Shuyi got out of bed and went to the room of the two children next door. He touched their feet and closed the doors and windows tightly before he felt relieved.
As soon as I came out of the child's room, the door opened.
Pei Yanli wore a palace cloak and led his horse into the house. The rain soaked his clothes and legs.
When he saw Cheng Shuyi, he first glanced at the window of the child's room. Seeing that there was no light in the room, he knew that the child should be asleep.
He said softly, "Why are you up? It's cold outside, go back to your room and warm up."
Pei Yanli went home in the rain, his hands and feet were frozen stiff.
He just gritted his teeth and carried on.
I also don't want Cheng Shuyi to stay outside in the cold wind.
"Is everything okay in the palace?" Cheng Shuyi asked, hugging his arms tightly.
But please don’t let any change of dynasty happen!
Pei Yanli tied up the horse, threw a bundle of hay for it, clapped his hands and walked towards Cheng Shuyi.
"It's okay, the emperor is just having a little temper, he'll be fine in a few days." Pei Yanli said, "I'll go boil some water for you to take a bath, and make you a pot of hot tea."
Without charcoal fire, Cheng Shuyi couldn't stay at his desk.
She ran to the bed, stuck her feet under the covers and waited.
The rain is still falling outside the window, dripping along the tiles into the yard, and the dripping sound is very pleasant.
The dry north wind became moist and cool because of the rain, and it felt very comfortable to stay in the quilt.
Pei Yanli took a quick bath and came to Cheng Shuyi's room with a pot of hot tea.
When he opened the door and saw Cheng Shuyi lying on the bed with only his head exposed, he smiled and said, "Would you like some tea?"
He was afraid that she would be cold, so he made a pot of tea to warm her up.
She was already lying in the quilt.
"No more drinking, or I'll have to get up later to go to the bathroom."
Cheng Shuyi sat up and pulled the quilt up to his neck. "What on earth is the emperor so angry about? Does he often threaten to become a monk like this?"
From the conversation between Pei Yanli and Mo Xiao in the evening, it sounded like the emperor often wanted to become a monk.
And it seemed that every time, it was Pei Yanli who had to coax him before he would calm down.
Cheng Shuyi was very curious about their relationship as king and subject.
Pei Yanli poured himself a cup of tea, looking helpless, "The emperor has a gentle and simple temperament, is dedicated to the people, and has not made any major mistakes since he ascended the throne."
"The Prince of Yan's rebellion and the Imperial Court Incident not only cost the lives of innocent scholars, but also deprived the soldiers of food and fodder in the northern border. The Emperor blames himself and takes all the blame on himself."
"He felt that he was not a good enough emperor and felt ashamed of the people and the soldiers, so he clamored to give way to the virtuous."
Cheng Shuyi said sincerely, "It sounds like the emperor is a good emperor."
He is gentle, simple, dedicated to the people, and good at introspection.
This has already defeated 80% of the emperors.
Pei Yanli put down his teacup and said, "Zhongyi is indeed a good emperor, but he is not very confident and is too soft-hearted."
Zhongyi is Sheng Hong's courtesy name.
Apart from Pei Yanli, only the late emperor and the empress dowager dared to call him by his courtesy name.
"If it weren't for me sitting in the court for him and Mo Xiao guarding the border for him all these years, how could the world be so peaceful?"
While Pei Yanli was speaking, he had already lifted Cheng Shuyi's quilt and crawled in, holding her in his arms and lying down together.
His hands were on her waist, kneading her seemingly unintentionally.
"Zhongyi is just too tense. He'll be fine after a while."
The emperor is under a lot of pressure and shoulders the heavy responsibility of the country.
Sheng Hong is just a mortal after all, and he also has times of collapse.
He and Mo Xiao had originally planned to accompany the emperor to hunt outside the city tomorrow to relax. Staying in the palace all day would make one sick.
I just don’t know when the rain will stop tonight?
Pei Yanli buried his head deeper and deeper, and the hand on his waist slowly exerted force.
Suddenly, a warm and soft feeling came against his neck, and Cheng Shuyi woke up instantly.
Pei Yanli nuzzled her affectionately and said with a smile, "Why are you so tense? Am I really that scary?"
The person in his arms was small and delicate, and he could sense any reaction.
The big hand on her waist gradually increased its strength and tested her. Pei Yanli asked her, "Does it hurt with such force?"
He had been massaging her waist, and Cheng Shuyi thought he was asking about the strength of the massage.
Then he shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt."
Pei Yanli pinched one spot tightly, holding it still, exerting force with his entire hand. "How about this?"
Cheng Shuyi still shook his head.
A satisfied chuckle came from above his head, "It's good that it doesn't hurt. I'll remember this strength."
What to remember?
Cheng Shuyi began to not understand what Pei Yanli was saying.
Aren’t you talking about rubbing the waist?
Cheng Shuyi wanted to ask, but Pei Yanli changed the position of his hand and twisted her arm behind her back.
"Shuyi, try to break free from me."
This time, Cheng Shuyi could be sure that he was not talking about rubbing the waist at all!
"What do you want to do!" She guessed a little and her face turned red uncontrollably.
Pei Yanli turned her body and made her face away from him.
Her hands were tied behind her back by him, and her tall body pressed down on her, making her unable to move.
Pei Yanli's possessive and seductive voice rang in her ears: "I'm thinking about how I can avoid hurting you, and how much you can bear from me."
Damn it!
It was all because of what Zhao Ning had said before about him having an addiction, which made him hesitant, fearing that he would go too far.
Hence the current trial.
Pei Yanli thought it was a test and he could control it.
But he still underestimated his body's desire for her.
"Shuyi..." The person behind her seemed to be in great pain, wanting to get closer to her but not daring to. "Please help me, your mouth is so sweet..."
"Meng Lang, you scoundrel!"
This sentence was not cursed by Cheng Shuyi.
Pei Yanli suddenly came to his senses and scolded himself.
He thought back to the scene six and a half years ago, and her voice kept echoing in his mind.
Pei Yanli let her go and laid her flat on the side, lifting most of the quilt away, leaving only her waist covered, which made her appearance even more obvious.
The damp and cold air woke him up. The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, as if every sound could be covered by the sound of the rain.
But the room was quiet.
Cheng Shuyi was free and rubbed his numb wrist. "Strange, are you really not capable of being gentle?"
incredible.
How could someone not know the seriousness of the matter?
Pei Yanli was still agitated. He was quite frank: "This king doesn't like light things, he likes heavy things."
He turned his head and stared at her with a fierce look like a wild beast in the forest hunting.
"Shuyi, the more pain... the more unbearable it will be."
He is a lunatic!
