Chapter 54 Brother
Yueli almost didn't sleep all night.
She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she got up at dawn and wanted to go to Linde Hall.
Lian Qiao was still yawning: "Master, it's so early, His Majesty may not have gotten up yet."
"Then I'll go sleep with him."
Forsythia: “…”
When they arrived at the Linde Palace, Yue Li saw Chu Yi from afar, who had also not slept all night.
Chu Yi was very lively. Seeing her coming, a smile appeared on his face, which was always as cold as ice. "My humble servant greets Concubine Yu."
"Your Majesty just got up and asked why the concubine was not here..." Chu Yi said as he helped her push open the palace door.
There was a smell of medicinal herbs in the hall. Yue Li shrugged her nose and then fanned it with her hand in disgust.
He Yanchen had just come out of the shower. His face was a little pale and he was leaning on the couch, rubbing his eyebrows.
Yueli walked over quietly and clung to his arms as soon as she got close: "Is your Majesty feeling better?"
He Yanchen naturally raised his arms and hugged her: "I'm fine, but you, why did you get up so early today?"
Yueli pouted and said, "I usually get up very early, and I was worried about Your Majesty, so I couldn't fall asleep."
Looking at the faint dark circles under her eyes, He Yanchen knew that she was not lying.
"Your Majesty, would you like to go out for a walk?" It was a beautiful day outside today, and Yueli felt that going out for a walk would improve her mood and health.
"Where do you want to go?"
"Go to the lotus pond? I always go there. The weather has been warm recently, and many flowers are blooming."
In order not to spoil her fun, He Yanchen agreed to go out and play with her.
Lotus pond.
The man sat in the octagonal pavilion, watching the woman playing in the water beside the rockery.
Yueli loves beauty very much and usually has countless cabinets full of beautiful clothes. Today she is wearing a pink and blue brocade dress with butterfly patterns and a silk flower of the same color on her head, looking like a colorful butterfly.
At this time, the "butterfly" was running around in the flowers, and no one knew why it was laughing there.
He Yanchen smiled silently. He still felt some pain in his body in the morning, but he felt that the pain had dissipated a lot now.
The warm sun shone on the woman. She held a bunch of fallen flowers, lifted the petals and threw them into the water. A string of silver bell-like laughter echoed by the lotus pond.
He Yanchen watched her fooling around by the water, her eyebrows curved and her smile sweet, as if it could dispel all the haze in her heart.
He took a sip of tea to hide the smile on his face.
At this moment, Ji Ming walked into the pavilion and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Yuan requests an audience."
He Yanchen paused for a moment, then said in silence, "Let him come over."
"yes."
After Ji Ming left, He Yanchen called Yue Li: "Jiaojiao, come here."
Yueli was having fun when she was caught off guard when she heard him calling her. She couldn't splash the water in her hand in time and it all spilled onto her skirt.
She trotted over, holding the hem of her skirt: "Your Majesty?"
He Yanchen's gaze fell on her wet dress and he narrowed his eyes.
Yueli took small steps closer to him, grabbed his sleeve and shook it gently, then admitted her mistake and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, you were playing with me. I was so happy that I got my dress wet. I won't do it again next time."
"Your Majesty, please don't get angry. Anger is harmful to your health."
The man snorted coldly: "If you stop making trouble for one day, I won't be angry."
Yue Li sat softly on his lap. She was so light that He Yanchen could hardly feel her weight. Although his face was cold, his arms were honestly around her.
"Go get some hot water." He instructed the palace servant beside him.
"Even though the weather is a bit hot, it's only April. You're not allowed to go swimming."
"I know..." Yueli muttered and pouted.
When Yuan Zhang followed Ji Ming, he saw two people leaning against each other in the pavilion.
He frowned slightly. His Majesty had not attended the morning court for many days, and he thought something had happened, but it seemed that there was nothing wrong with him.
Could it be that he was just having fun with his concubines?
A hint of contempt flashed across Yuan Zhang's eyes.
"Your Majesty, your humble servant pays his respects." He walked to the foot of the pavilion and greeted respectfully.
Yue Li wanted to get up, but He Yanchen was pinching her waist with one hand and lifting the jade belt around her waist with the other hand, with no intention of letting her get up.
She glanced at Yuan Zhang. Although she didn't understand, since he didn't want her to leave, she didn't leave.
Yueli relaxed and leaned her whole body against him.
"What's the matter, my dear Yuan?" He Yanchen casually pinched the fingers of the woman in his arms and played with them.
Yuan Zhang said, "Your Majesty has not attended court in a long time. I and my colleagues are worried about your health. I have the audacity to ask for your advice."
He Yanchen chuckled nonchalantly, "I'm fine, just a little tired lately."
Yuan Zhang raised his eyes slightly, but found that the emperor didn't even look at him, but was just being intimate with the woman in his arms.
It seemed clear why I was tired.
"Your Majesty, the court is in a turbulent time. I implore Your Majesty..."
"Prime Minister Yuan, don't you see that His Majesty is busy?" Yue Li seemed to understand something and snorted coquettishly, "As a minister, you should help His Majesty solve problems. If His Majesty has to make all the decisions, what are you doing here?"
Yuan Zhang's face darkened. No one would be happy to be scolded like this by a witch concubine.
He Yanchen chuckled softly: "Jiaojiao, don't say too much."
Although he said these words to stop her, his tone was full of doting.
"Your Majesty, you promised to accompany me today. I also want to go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to music."
"Okay, okay..." He Yanchen hugged her and stood up, sighing softly to Yuan Zhang, "My dear Yuan, please go back first. I know what to do."
As they spoke, the two of them passed by him.
Yuan Zhang straightened up only after the footsteps disappeared. A few days ago, He Yanchen went to the imperial mausoleum. He thought he knew something, but today it seemed that he was fine.
Yuan Zhang felt relieved a little, stood there for a while, and then left with a look of loss.
Yue Li took He Yanchen towards Changyin Pavilion. Few people came to Changyin Pavilion, and the road was very deserted.
"Your Majesty, did I delay your important work just now?" she asked deliberately.
He Yanchen tapped her nose and said, "Jiaojiao is the smartest."
He thought about it all night last night and felt more and more that Yueli was right.
Why should he give up his kingdom to others?
Didn’t the late emperor want him dead?
He insisted that he watch from underground how he became an emperor admired by all generations.
"Your Majesty, there seems to be someone in front..."
Yueli suddenly stopped and pulled him to hide behind a tree trunk.
Ji Ming didn't catch up just now, so now it's just the two of them.
He Yanchen's face darkened: "This is my palace."
Is there any reason for him to hide?
Yueli quickly covered his mouth: "Your Majesty, please listen..."
There seemed to be some indecent sounds coming from the bushes, and a female voice panted: "Brother...be gentle..."
Yueli's toes were about to dig into the ground.
She even saw a mandarin duck bellyband hanging on the bushes.
Someone is having an affair in broad daylight?!
He Yanchen's face darkened slightly. In the palace, no matter if it was a concubine or a maid, anyone who dared to have an affair would be punished with death.
He gave a gesture and the secret guards came out to deal with it.
"Let's go." The man said with a cold face as he pulled Yue Li, who was watching intently, away.
"Your Majesty..." Yue Li's face turned red after listening to a live sex scene. She grabbed his sleeves and her whole body went limp on him.
The palace maids brought the imperial sedan chair, and once on it, Yue Li completely let herself go.
She rolled her eyes, suddenly threw herself into his arms, and bit his Adam's apple:
"elder brother..."
He Yanchen's breathing stagnated, his eyes darkened, his Adam's apple slowly drooped, and he pinched the woman's waist and gritted his teeth, "If Jiaojiao can't get out of bed one day, it's your own fault."
Yue Li was not afraid of him at this moment: "Brother forgot, Xiao Yuanpan said you need to rest for a few days."
"I'm afraid my brother is not feeling well recently..."
Yue Li smiled coquettishly, which made He Yanchen's face darken instantly.
