Chapter 181 Drunk
When Xiao Heng hurried over from Yaohua Palace, the woman he loved was no longer there. All he could see was the shadows of the lights slowly moving across the river.
He stood there in a daze, staring at the lake with a tense expression.
Zhou Defu said cautiously, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xi may have gone boating on the lake."
Only then did Xiao Heng see that the small boat he had prepared was no longer there.
He had ordered the greenhouse to be specially decorated, and it was filled with her favorite gardenias. However, he felt that the color of gardenias was too monotonous, so he asked the palace maids in the greenhouse to add some more beautiful flowers.
"She is willing to take a boat tour on the lake. She must like my arrangement..." Xiao Heng muttered softly.
Zhou Defu widened his eyes. The emperor was not angry at Concubine Xi for leaving without permission. Instead, he was concerned about whether she liked this arrangement.
It seems that Concubine Xi is gaining more and more favor from the emperor.
"Go and invite the Moon Palace."
Xiao Heng's voice brought Zhou Defu back to his senses, and he quickly followed his pace.
Meanwhile, in Yaoyue Palace, Liu Yuetang was drinking in the night.
As she drank glass after glass of wine, her cheeks became flushed and her eyes became blurry, as if she was neither drunk nor intoxicated.
Liu Zheng whispered, "My Lady, be careful you might get really drunk."
Liu Yuetang raised her fair wrist and smoothly poured the wine from the cup into the glass. As the gurgling sound began, she slowly spoke: "Today is my birthday! Let me get drunk for once."
As the saying goes, a woman is three-quarters drunk. If you want to make a man cry, he must be really drunk.
The seductive look after being drunk is the most irresistible.
As the sound of footsteps rang out, Liu Yuetang knew that the prey she was waiting for had arrived.
She stood up and spun around in the yard with a staggering step. Her moon-white skirt fluttered in the wind like a lotus blooming in the night sky.
However, this lotus is full of loneliness and sadness.
"The exquisite dice are filled with red beans. Do you know how deeply I miss you?"
She murmured softly, waved her sleeves, raised her head and drank the wine in the glass.
"Knowing...knowing what can I do?"
"He still refuses to come..." Liu Yuetang murmured sadly, dancing lightly with the wine glass in hand.
The moonlight fell on her body, as if covering her with a layer of delicate gauze, adding a bit of hazy beauty.
As the poem says, the black hair dances in the wind, and the moon shines on the fragrant shoulders, making the dream soft.
Liu Yuetang turned lightly several times, and finally her feet went soft and she fell backwards.
Then he felt something tighten around his waist and fell into someone's arms.
The smell of ambergris sobered her up a little. She raised her misty and charming eyes, raised her hand and pinched Xiao Heng's face, and her red lips slowly blossomed: "I'm dreaming..."
Xiao Heng took her into his arms, stroked her long hair and said softly, "I'm here. I made Miaomiao wait for so long..."
Liu Yuetang smiled foolishly and hugged Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng looked at the people kneeling on the ground and said sternly, "What are you doing here? You let the master drink so much?"
Wan Qiu knelt on the ground: "The Queen said that it was her birthday today and she wanted to get drunk. Even the servants couldn't stop her..."
Looking at the woman in his arms who was as delicate as peach blossoms, Xiao Heng's heart ached.
If I hadn't left her alone in the Liujin River, she wouldn't have resorted to drinking to drown her sorrows.
Xiao Heng sighed slightly, held Liu Yuetang horizontally in his arms, and walked towards the inner hall.
"Xiao Heng! You bastard!"
Liu Yuetang pounded his chest with her hands, "Why do you always make me feel so uncomfortable!"
The warmth of the collar seemed to burn into his heart, causing his heart to shrink and ache.
I'm afraid that only when she is drunk will she burst out all her dissatisfaction and sadness.
Xiao Heng slowly rolled his throat: "Yes, I am a bastard! I always make Miaomiao so sad."
He held Liu Yuetang's hand and placed it against his chest. "I'll let Miaomiao vent her anger, okay?"
"Hit me harder!"
Liu Yuetang looked at his half-naked chest with her hazy pupils, then she pulled open his clothes, lowered her head and bit the skin on his chest hard.
Xiao Heng froze in place, a muffled groan coming from his throat.
He instinctively raised his hand to push Liu Yuetang away, but he gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his chest, allowing her to turn all the grievances and sadness in her heart into biting force.
Not until the smell of blood spread between Liu Yuetang's lips and teeth did she loosen her lips and look at Xiao Heng with misty almond eyes.
Looking at the bright red at the corner of her mouth, Xiao Heng said hoarsely, "Are you relieved?"
"If you're still not satisfied, there's still this side."
Xiao Heng opened his clothes, revealing the right side of his chest.
Liu Yuetang leaned forward, and just when Xiao Heng closed his eyes, thinking that Liu Yuetang was going to bite his chest again, his lips were blocked by a touch of warmth.
His eyelashes trembled violently, and before he could react, the aroma of wine and a hint of blood entangled between his lips and teeth, igniting the desire in his heart.
He held Liu Yuetang's head in his palm, and the originally gentle kiss became hot and crazy.
The flickering candlelight made the two people's affectionate figures appear and disappear.
Inside the tent, the two held hands tightly, blending all the beauty and tenderness in the room into their lingering clothes.
The repeated storms made Liu Yuetang subconsciously clench her fingertips, leaving crimson crescents on the back of Xiao Heng's hands.
Liu Yuetang really didn't remember what happened afterwards.
Perhaps she was too tired, or perhaps the effects of the alcohol had taken effect, she fell into a deep sleep.
After Xiao Heng asked for water to wash, he felt no sleepiness at all. He lay beside Liu Yuetang and stared at her beautiful face quietly.
At this moment, she was like a water lily under the rosy glow, quiet and charming, causing Xiao Heng's heart, which had just calmed down, to become turbulent again.
He raised his hand and gently stroked Liu Yuetang's sleeping face. He couldn't bear to disturb her anymore, so he suppressed the thoughts in his mind, hugged Liu Yuetang in his arms, and gently kissed her forehead with his lips.
"Miaomiao, happy birthday."
When Liu Yuetang woke up the next day, it was already noon.
She rubbed her heavy head, opened the curtain and asked, "Liu Zheng, what time is it?"
Liu Zheng, who was standing not far away, heard the noise and hurried forward, saying with a smile, "My Lady, it's already the Si hour."
Liu Yuetang was slightly startled: "I slept for so long, why didn't you wake me up?"
Liu Zheng hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Emperor has already asked Eunuch Zhou to go to Weiyang Palace to ask for leave. The Emperor specifically instructed the servants not to wake Your Majesty, saying that Your Majesty yesterday..."
She smiled shyly and whispered, "I'm tired."
Tired? Liu Yuetang tried hard to recall what happened last night, but it was very vague.
I only vaguely remember that she seemed to be down there the whole time and didn't seem tired...
Liu Yuetang was about to stand up when she realized she was not wearing anything underneath. The red kiss mark on her thigh suddenly caught her eye. She suddenly felt embarrassed: "You...didn't you change my clothes for me yesterday?"
Liu Zheng lowered her head with a smile: "Last night, it was the Emperor who cleaned the Empress's body. The Emperor did not allow the servants to get close..."
Liu Yuetang was stunned. It was Xiao Heng who washed her body last night?
"Your Majesty, the Emperor truly feels that you've been wronged. The way he looks at you today is different. The wine he drank last night was not in vain."
Liu Yuetang picked up a strand of black hair and wrapped it around her fingertips, her cherry lips raised slightly: "Don't I feel wronged?"
She didn't love Xiao Heng, so to her, these were not grievances at all.
But if you love Xiao Heng, this grievance would be huge.
