A moment later, the system said: [Host, besides the emperor, the most outstanding and established person in the palace is on your roof beam.]
On the roof beam?
Because the emperor was watching her, Li Yunyan did not look up to see him, but instead began to think.
Those who could stand on the roof beams in the palace, besides assassins, could only be the emperor's secret guards.
Now that the country is peaceful and prosperous, and there is no assassination attempt on the emperor in the plot, there is only one answer left—a secret guard?
"System, send me a picture. Let me see what this bodyguard looks like!"
Li Yunyan is a sucker for good looks; if a man isn't good-looking, no matter how outstanding he is, she won't be interested in him.
The moment the image appeared in her mind, Li Yunyan almost whistled on the spot!
It's so damn good-looking!
Below the photo is a line of text: Ying Huai, bodyguard, 18 years old, 189cm tall.
Great! Simple and straightforward!
Ying Huai's appearance, in modern terms, is that of a manga character who looks like he stepped out of a comic book.
He had fair skin, slightly curly hair, and well-defined features. His thin lips were slightly pursed, and his expression was indifferent and unsmiling.
Yes! It's! Her! Dish!
Li Yunyan couldn't help but smile; she was determined to eat this dish!
Upon seeing Li Yunyan's smile, He Beiyi's heart fluttered, and he couldn't wait to push her onto the bed and pamper her.
"Your name is Li Yunyan?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Her voice was melodious and pleasant, and He Beiyi was momentarily lost in thought.
He swept her into his arms and breathed on her ear, saying, "Serve me well tonight, and I will promote you tomorrow."
After saying that, he tried to lower his head.
Li Yunyan turned her head to the side, and He Beiyi's kiss landed on her neck.
With a nimble turn, she escaped his embrace, her skirt billowing in the air, making her seem almost unreal.
Li Yunyan feigned composure, hesitatingly saying, "Your Majesty, I am a little nervous."
He Beiyi raised an eyebrow. Having seen countless obedient concubines, this was the first time he had seen a woman who dared to refuse him, and a hint of interest appeared in his eyes.
He spoke with feigned seriousness: "Li Yunyan, you are the first woman to dare refuse me. Do you know what your punishment is?"
Li Yunyan wouldn't be scared by him.
She smiled gently at him, her beautiful eyes crinkling into a smile: "Your Majesty, you have too many women in your palace! Yunyan doesn't want to be like them, otherwise Your Majesty will soon forget me!"
"oh?"
He Beiyi walked closer to her and pulled her back into his arms. "Yunyan, what kind of difference do you want?"
That bastard!
Do I have to hold her in my arms before I can talk to her?
Li Yunyan decided not to anger him and let him hold her.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, and her voice was sweet and soft: "Your Majesty, could you please not do tonight what you've done with other women before?"
Seeing his displeasure, Li Yunyan immediately held up one finger and added, "It's just tonight! Your Majesty wants to remember this special night!"
Her fingers were so white and delicate they were almost blinding, and the little bit of anger in He Beiyi's chest was immediately dissipated.
Looking into her bright and sparkling eyes, he swallowed the words of refusal that were on the tip of his tongue.
Well then! Such a beauty deserves a bit of temper!
Instead of being angry, he laughed, and a sense of triumphant desire to conquer arose in his heart.
He lightly pecked her finger and said, "Yunyan, are you so determined? If I don't favor you tonight and forget you tomorrow, what will you do?"
Li Yunyan's beautiful eyes flickered, a hint of grievance welling up within them. She said innocently, "If Your Majesty forgets me, I will run to find you every day and pester you until Your Majesty remembers me!"
A deep laugh came from his chest. "What a pipe dream! How could a mere concubine like you possibly run off to see me every day?"
Although he knew she was talking nonsense, He Beiyi was still amused by her words.
Sensing his mood brighten, Li Yunyan grew bolder. She pouted and asked haughtily, "Your Majesty, will you agree or not?"
Her full, bright red lips were alluring without her realizing it, causing He Beiyi's eyes to darken.
He suppressed the urge to take her right there and then whispered, "Let me kiss you, and I'll agree!"
Then, without saying a word, he kissed her.
"Hmm!"
Li Yunyan was kissed so suddenly that she instinctively tried to push him away, but her hands were held tightly by his large hand.
[Host! You mustn't kill anyone! You mustn't kill anyone! Completing the mission is the most important thing!]
Hearing the system's scream, Li Yunyan frowned. That bastard!
He took such a disrespectful act against her, and yet we can't kill him!
How annoying!
Li Yunyan felt stifled and passively endured his kiss, mentally calculating the time. If he kissed her for too long, even if it would make him angry, she would push him away!
Fortunately, he released her in time, his breathing heavy and his eyes dark.
In recent years, He Beiyi has always treated his visits to the harem with a business-like attitude in order to have offspring, and he never thought that he would have moments when he felt restless and unable to resist the urge.
Although he is not feeling well, he has found a rare moment of enjoyment!
What a novel experience!
He finally let go of Li Yunyan, and she jumped onto the bed, wrapping herself in the blanket like a silkworm cocoon.
She lay upright, her beautiful eyes blinking: "Your Majesty, please rest!"
How dare she go to bed before him?
He Beiyi's lips curved slightly, a hint of a smile appearing. Interesting!
He shook his head, cut the candle flame with scissors, and lay down on the bed next to her.
