Chapter 107 Of course I want you
"Your Majesty, I greet you.
Meng Yan stepped forward and bowed.
The Emperor had been so busy with state affairs recently that he had no time to attend to the harem, and the two had not seen each other for over ten days. The original plan to hold a welcoming banquet for the Empress Dowager had been repeatedly postponed.
She felt relieved that Lu Haozhi didn't come, and she didn't have to always think about his abnormal thoughts.
However, today, he had just entered the harem and came to her again.
"Stand up."
Lu Haozhi said this lightly. Seeing Meng Yan turned around to prepare tea, he said, "No need to rush. I just came here from Wenyuan Pavilion and drank a belly full of cold tea."
Hearing him say this, Meng Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
The colorful porcelain tea bowl for fighting cocks that Lu Haozhi used to use had already been put away by her, so it would take some effort to find it now.
Meng Yan walked to his side and asked softly, "Your Majesty, why are you here in Changchun Palace today? Princess He'an is currently admiring the lotus flowers at Taiye Pond. If Your Majesty wishes to see her, I will send someone to bring her back."
"That's not necessary. Summer days are long and she has a childish nature. Let her play."
Lu Haozhi stopped her and said after a moment, "I came here today to tell you some good news. Your brother Meng Changyuan has arrived at the southwest frontier a few days ago and is leading his troops in battle against the enemy. He has already won two small victories."
When her brother first arrived in the southwest, he won several battles. Meng Yan knew this in her previous life, but she was still very happy to hear it now.
It was difficult to express this joy in front of the emperor. Meng Yan smiled faintly, "Your Majesty has made wise arrangements. The Great Zhou is blessed by heaven. Our army will be invincible. My brother is just following the trend."
After saying that, the two fell silent again.
They didn't know when it started, but they fell into this situation where they had nothing to say. Sometimes when they forced themselves to say something, they were often talking about other people's affairs.
Lu Haozhi looked at her, his eyes full of complexity.
Meng Yan stood by the window, the summer light casting a faint shimmer on her delicate face, like fine porcelain. A pair of silver-threaded jade earrings dangled gently from her ears, like two drops of water about to fall between her snowy neck and the towering peaks, precarious yet poised, a breathtaking sight.
She was wearing a emerald green light gauze double-breasted jacket, the clear fabric revealed the delicate and fair skin underneath, making him feel hot.
He had not come to the harem during this period, not only because he was busy with state affairs, but also because he did not know how to treat her.
He shouldn't have taken that bizarre dream seriously, but the things in the dream always brought him heart-wrenching pain.
Meng Yan's cold words and contemptuous smile in his dream always lingered in his mind. He even almost rushed to Changchun Palace to question her several times, just like himself in his dream.
He no longer suffered from heartache, but was replaced by long, tormenting dreams at night. He always woke up to her mockery and ridicule, and then sat by the bed until dawn.
She said he was not worthy of having a child with her...
"Yan'er, come here."
Lu Haozhi suppressed his thousands of thoughts, looked at Meng Yan, and said lightly.
Meng Yan only felt a strong sense of oppression coming towards her. The man sitting there was like a ferocious beast, and she was the prey falling into his hands.
Although it was just a simple remark, Meng Yan keenly sensed his intention.
But today, she had nowhere to retreat and could only walk step by step to his side.
As expected, as soon as she came close, Lu Haozhi stretched out his arms and put them around her slender waist.
Meng Yan's eyes blurred, and the world seemed to be turning upside down before her eyes. When she came to her senses, her back was already resting on the mattress.
"Emperor... um..."
Just as she opened her mouth, the man's lips pressed tightly against hers, blocking the rest of her words.
He held her slender wrist tightly, and Lu Haozhi's strong body held her firmly under him, making her unable to move at all.
The scent of ambergris and men almost overwhelmed her and made her forget to struggle.
His kiss was a little rough, as if he was demanding something from her fiercely.
The quiet and gentle nature of the woman in his arms calmed the turmoil in Lu Haozhi's heart a little. He started from her lips and kissed and bit her slender white neck.
"Your Majesty...what are you doing?"
Even though she knew the answer, Meng Yan couldn't help but blurt it out.
"What to do... naturally I want you."
Lu Haozhi's breathing was a little disordered, and his tone was calm but full of desire.
"It's daytime."
Meng Yan continued to speak, but she knew in her heart that she could not escape this time. She could feel his suppressed emotions and firm will, and he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
After all, that's the relationship they have.
Lu Haozhi straightened up slightly, undressing himself with one hand while looking down at her.
"So what? Can't it be done during the day? Have we ever cared about day or night before?"
He ripped open his shirt, revealing his strong and broad chest, and then he hugged her again.
Gently stroking her cheek, Lu Haozhi asked in a low voice, "Yan'er, don't you want my child?"
Meng Yan gently closed her eyes, not wanting to answer this question.
Get pregnant first, then lose it?
At first she thought she could have him all to herself, but then she was disappointed; later, she thought it would be nice to have his child, but she didn't have the child either.
She had nothing left.
Meng Yan's silence made Lu Haozhi think that she agreed.
"...I will definitely allow you to give birth to a child that belongs to you and me."
Outside the hall, Rong An was guarding the gate, looking up at the sky, not daring to leave.
Your Majesty and Your Majesty, is everything okay now?
As for this couple, they fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. It's the same in folk and palace.
The Empress Dowager would no longer bring him to Shoukang Palace and scold him every now and then.
Rong An was thinking happily when he suddenly saw the palace maid Yunxiang running towards him, panting.
Yunxiang reached the door and was about to enter the palace, but Rong An hurriedly stopped her and scolded her in a low voice, "What are you doing? What are you doing? The Emperor and the Empress are inside... Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Yunxiang's face turned pale, and she said anxiously, "No, no, this servant must see the queen. Something happened, something happened!"
Rong An would never let her in and disturb the emperor's good thing, so he grabbed the door frame with both hands and blocked the door tightly.
Yunxiang tried several times to get through, but in a panic, she shouted, "Your Majesty, I, Yunxiang, have something to report. Princess He'an fell into the Taiye Lake!"
Rong An slapped his forehead and turned his face away.
Auntie, if you don't take care of your head, please don't bring trouble to me.
This job is becoming increasingly difficult.
The hall was completely silent. After a moment, the sound of embroidered shoes was heard. Meng Yan hurried out from inside. Her clothes were disheveled, her hair was slightly messy, and she asked anxiously, "How did Doukou fall into the water? How is she now?"
Lu Haozhi also followed her out. His clothes were not very neat, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he looked gloomy.
Rong An had shrunk into a corner, hoping that the emperor wouldn't see him.
