Ying Huai put his arm around her back and carefully placed her on the ground.
His voice was restrained yet hoarse, "Your Majesty... I apologize."
He reached out and pressed her pressure points.
Li Yunyan clenched her fists helplessly, wanting to cry!
I should have just taken the antidote pills!
She was about to cry when Ying Huai silenced her with a kiss.
......
After being detoxified, Li Yunyan fainted like a punctured balloon.
Her clothes were completely soaked in the bathtub and are now ice cold. She'll definitely get sick if she wears them to bed!
Ying Huai took a set of her usual clothes from her wardrobe and changed her with his eyes closed.
But it was his first time dressing a woman, and he didn't dare touch her, so you can imagine how difficult the process was.
He fumbled around to change her clothes, finally managing to get her dressed before daring to open his eyes and look at her sleeping face.
Her face was still streaked with tears, and her lips were a dazzling red, which made Ying Huai's eyes darken even more.
He composed himself, wiped away her tears with the back of his hand, and then gently lifted her long hair, focusing all his inner strength on drying it.
Her hair was so smooth and silky, like the finest satin, that it was irresistible to touch.
Ying Huai stood there by the bed, gazing at her for a long time.
Then, without thinking, he bent down and planted a kiss on her lips.
Then they disappear into the darkness.
When Li Yunyan woke up the next day, she felt dry mouth and a little dizzy.
That poison yesterday was truly potent! We don't know how much the poisoner used!
She got out of bed, picked up the cup on the table, and drank several mouthfuls before she felt a little better.
Memories of last night flooded back.
Li Yunyan was both ashamed and angry.
I never expected that he would help her solve such a good opportunity in such a way!
I want to cry!
Amidst my anger, I also felt a touch of sweetness.
A smile played on her lips. Since things turned out like this last night, then next time, it should be like this too!
Li Yunyan felt that her clothes were loose and baggy, and she knew without a doubt that he had helped her put them on, which made her smile again.
I really want to see him lose control, what should I do?
Hearing the noise, Xiangxia knocked on the door and came over, saying to Li Yunyan, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has sent word that Your Majesty need not go to Fengyi Palace to pay your respects today!"
"I see!"
Li Yunyan tapped the table with her finger, thinking about what happened at Fengyi Palace last night.
Since Consort Xu was able to set a trap for her in the Phoenix Palace, she must have had the Empress's permission. The question is, what role did the Empress play in all of this?
Will she be able to escape unscathed this time?
He Beiyi rushed over in a hurry after finishing the morning court session.
At this moment, Li Yunyan was lying on the chaise longue reading a storybook. When she saw the emperor walk in, she thought of getting up to greet him.
"Yan'er, there's no need for such formalities!"
He Beiyi stopped her and went directly to the soft couch to sit with her.
Yuan Qing, being very perceptive, left the house with the servants and thoughtfully closed the door behind them.
Li Yunyan put down the storybook in her hand, looked at He Beiyi, and asked, "Your Majesty, has the matter from last night been resolved?"
He Beiyi had come over to talk to her about this, so he nodded.
"I have banished Consort Xu to the Cold Palace, where she shall never leave again. The palace maid and the guard have been executed."
"Guards?"
Li Yunyan left early last night and didn't know that the strange man in the room was actually a guard.
"Hmm." He Beiyi didn't want to bring up the matter again. He took her hand and played with it, casually saying, "Yan'er, don't worry about unimportant people. I promise you, this will never happen again!"
Li Yunyan's voice was somewhat cold, "What about the Empress? Does she know anything about it?"
He Beiyi's eyes flickered, and Li Yunyan clearly felt it; the hand holding hers paused for a moment.
Then, with a calm expression, he said, "The Empress was unaware of the situation this time, but she still cannot escape the responsibility for negligence in management. I have already punished her. For the next month, you do not need to go to Fengyi Palace to pay your respects."
Li Yunyan lowered her eyes. She knew that He Beiyi had chosen to help the Empress conceal the truth again this time.
No matter how well he talks, how is his current behavior any different from the original plot?
She was just lucky to have avoided the situation! Otherwise, what awaited her would have been a fate worse than death.
His heart, which had felt guilty because he had been too good to her, hardened again.
Li Yunyan smiled and said, "It's so good that I don't have to pay my respects! That way, I don't have to get up early every day!"
He Beiyi felt extremely guilty. He gently pinched her cheek and said, "If Yan'er doesn't like to pay her respects, I grant you permission not to do it anymore."
That won't do! The mission isn't successful yet; she still wants to give these women a chance to frame her!
She gently shook her head. "The Empress is the mother of the nation, and I cannot be disrespectful to her. I was just saying that; I will continue to pay my respects to her in the future!"
He Beiyi felt even more guilty and sighed, "If only every concubine in the palace were as sensible as Yan'er!"
"His Majesty would never think that way! If everyone had the same personality, His Majesty would find it boring!"
He Beiyi chuckled, "But right now I feel that in the entire harem, Yan'er is the most interesting one!"
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kind words!"
Her eyes crinkled with laughter, and she looked no different than usual.
He Beiyi instructed Yuan Qing to go to the Imperial Study and bring all the unread memorials to Chonghua Palace, as he wanted to spend the day with Yan'er.
That night, after He Beiyi fell into a coma, Li Yunyan calmly pushed him away.
She got off the bed, went behind the screen, and wiped the remaining medicine off her lips with a damp towel.
Then she began to call out softly.
"grown ups!"
"grown ups?"
Ying Huai's eyes flickered slightly, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.
After what happened last night, he was a little unsure how to face her.
Li Yunyan continued to call out to him persistently, raising an eyebrow and threatening, "My lord, if you don't come out, I'll keep calling until everyone can hear me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a gust of wind behind her. When she turned around, her forehead hit a wall.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
Li Yunyan rubbed her reddened forehead and pouted, "Sir, you bumped into me and hurt me!"
Ying Huai looked down at her, brushed aside the stray hairs on her forehead, and sure enough, saw a red patch in the middle of her forehead.
How can your skin be so delicate?
"I'm sorry! I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Li Yunyan threw herself into his arms.
She buried her face in his chest, wrapped her arms around his waist, and murmured, "My lord, I missed you so much."
Ying Huai's heart pounded like a drum.
She became more and more direct each time, making him almost unable to handle it.
He didn't realize that instead of pulling her away as usual, he stood straight and let her bury herself in his arms.
The woman in his arms was restless, her little face constantly rubbing against him.
It made his heart tremble.
