Chapter 117 My Man
After hearing this, Xiao Yuheng frowned slightly. Emperor Qi Yuan seldom summoned him, and even if he did, it would be in the imperial study, not his bedroom.
"Did your Majesty say what it was for?"
"No." The young eunuch answered briefly, as if he didn't want to say more.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng frowned even deeper. Seeing this, Shen Yue stepped forward and whispered, "I've met this eunuch before. He's close to Eunuch Cen, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"Yes." Xiao Yuheng nodded, "Let's go then."
"Um... Your Majesty, His Majesty has said that only you are allowed to go. It would be better for this gentleman to wait where he is."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng looked obviously displeased.
Shen Yue didn't think it was a big deal, "Your Majesty, the flowers are in full bloom today. I will be waiting for you in the Imperial Garden next door."
"That's fine. If you feel bored, just go back to Changchun Palace and ask the palace maid to make you a bowl of ice cream while you wait."
"good."
After bidding farewell to Chen Yue, Xiao Yuheng went all the way to Qilong Palace, but did not see Emperor Qi Yuan.
"Where is your Majesty?"
The young eunuch replied respectfully, "Your Majesty is busy. Please sit down for a moment and have some tea."
As he spoke, he poured him some tea.
Xiao Yuheng sighed, picked up the teacup, but didn't drink it in the end.
Although it was almost dusk, it was still stuffy outside. He didn't know whether A Yue was hot or thirsty. He couldn't go out for a while. He didn't know whether she had returned to Changchun Palace or was still waiting for her in the Imperial Garden.
After waiting for a while, he became a little impatient.
It doesn't seem like irritability, but heat.
Sitting in the hall, he felt that the wind blowing in from the door was hot. He felt drowsy and even his breathing quickened.
Inexplicably, he thought of Ah Yue's white body in the hot spring, her slender waist, her soft lips, and that beautiful dream...
No, he shouldn't do this even if the weather is hot.
These symptoms seem like... being drugged.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the tea on the table.
No, he didn't drink it. Could it be the cup? Or the chair he was sitting on?
Without giving it any time to think, he stood up unsteadily and stumbled towards the door.
The palace door was suddenly closed at this moment, and with a burst of strange fragrance, Wan Mei's voice sounded behind him.
"Where are you going, my lord?"
Xiao Yuheng turned around and looked at her, his phoenix eyes filled with a cold and sinister look, "Noble Concubine Wan is so bold that she dared to plot against me in His Majesty's Qilong Palace."
"plot?"
Wan Mei sneered a few times, "It's obvious that the prince broke into His Majesty's bedroom and tried to do something bad to me. Poor me, I was eagerly waiting for His Majesty to return to the palace, but you killed me. Alas!"
"Heh!" Xiao Yuheng also smiled coldly, "Noble Concubine Wan is indeed loyal to the Crown Prince. She has sold her body for him time and time again."
When Wan Mei heard this, her eyes trembled noticeably.
"You are still here trying to show off your power of words when you are about to die. Instead of resisting fearlessly, you might as well just obey me!"
As she said this, she was about to pull Xiao Yuheng's sleeve.
Seeing her approaching, Xiao Yuheng subconsciously mobilized the true energy in his body. However, the power of the medicine quickly spread in his body along with his true energy, and his consciousness quickly became blurred, and he could not see the person in front of him clearly.
He shoved Wan Mei away, panting heavily and speaking with difficulty:
"Prince...does he know you are like this?"
Wan Mei was stunned for a moment, then gave a wry smile.
He not only knew that sending the assassin and framing Xiao Yuheng were his ideas, but perhaps from the very beginning, she was just a chess piece of his.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. I am helpless. I cannot spare your life. His Majesty will return to the chambers soon. Then, without my intervention, he will naturally order the Jinwu Guards to kill you!"
"What about you?" Xiao Yuheng was enveloped in heat, and the voice beside him was a little blurry. "You defiled the harem. Do you think... His Majesty will let you go?"
"Then your Majesty, please don't bother."
Wan Mei began to untie her belt, "If Your Majesty wants to kill me, then you can kill me too."
Anyway, she has lived enough.
Imperial Garden.
Chen Yue walked around the garden full of peonies several times, but couldn't find anything interesting in them. They were just fragrant and beautiful, what else was there? It was boring.
After thinking about it, she decided to go back to Changchun Palace to eat ice cream.
While walking on the road, she suddenly met a group of palace maids. They were holding all kinds of delicious food in their hands, including iced watermelon, iced lychees, iced snow yuanzi, and cherry crisps that she had not eaten for a long time.
With a greedy mind, she approached the palace maid holding the Sushan and asked, "Which palace are you going to deliver the food to, ladies?"
The maid turned around, and Shen Yue realized that this was the young lady who gave her watermelon on the night of the welcoming banquet.
"Eh? Miss, what a coincidence!" It's much easier if you know someone.
The young lady was also a little surprised to see her and couldn't help blushing with shyness.
"I can't give it to you today. His Majesty said he would be returning to Qilong Palace soon, so he asked us to send some food to Concubine Wan in advance."
"Noble Concubine Wan?" Shen Yue was stunned.
"No...you said His Majesty will return to Qilong Palace 'later'? Then where is he now?"
The young lady was confused. "Since lunch, His Majesty has been discussing matters with the Prime Minister in the Imperial Study. He should be going back soon. I won't tell you anymore. If you're late, you'll be punished."
With that, she walked away in small steps.
"Wan Mei, Qi Longdian, Xiao Yuheng... It's broken! It's not what I thought, right?"
Whether it was true or not, she had to go over and take a look.
Without hesitation, she tiptoed up to the treetops and flew towards Qilong Palace.
Inside the palace, Wan Mei had already taken off her skirt and top, leaving only a thin gauze dress. Her delicate hands covered Xiao Yuheng's belt, "My Lord, are you ready to die?"
"presumptuous!"
Xiao Yuheng didn't dare to use his internal force anymore, but his strength didn't decrease at all, and he pushed her out.
Now his vision was blurred and his hearing was not very clear. Something was shouting wildly, trying to occupy his last bit of clarity.
He's going crazy!
Ah Yue, Ah Yue... He really wanted to...
No, I can't think about it, be rational, I can't...
He groped and stumbled towards the door, but Wan Mei took advantage of his inattention, quickly flashed in front of him, and pressed his two acupoints.
"Your Majesty~~ Someone has come to report that His Majesty is on his way back to his bedroom. Please stop struggling~"
Wan Mei's voice was soft and tender, full of triumph.
"Get out of here!"
Xiao Yuheng was so angry that his face turned blue. Seeing Wan Mei pulling off his belt, he was ready to gather his strength to break through the acupoint.
Suddenly, the palace door was kicked open with a bang.
The palace maid at the door had already been frozen in place by the acupuncture points. Wan Mei only felt a white shadow flash by, and the next second, a cold dagger was across her neck.
"Aunt, you're touching my man too. Isn't that a bit unfair?"
