After he had tidied up his clothes, he put his arm on Qiao Yuange's shoulders and said softly to Qiao Yuange, "Come on, it's late at night."
When Qiao Yuange heard this, his nose felt sore and his eyes turned red, as if he wanted to cry.
They occupied a side hall in Taixing Palace.
After putting the emperor on the bed, the emperor grabbed Qiao Yuange and said to her, "I have asked you and hinted to you over and over again, always hoping that you can accept me, but what I have waited for is only disappointment. Tell me, what are you going to do?"
At that time, Qiao Yuange was fetching water and was planning to wash the emperor's face.
After hearing the emperor say this, Qiao Yuange immediately stopped the work in her hands. She went to the emperor's bed and sat there.
She knew how against the rules this action was, but she did it anyway.
"Your Highness, from the beginning to the end, I have been just a lowly maid. Even though I hope to have a chance to develop with the emperor, my conscience tells me that I cannot do this."
Qiao Yuange felt that since the emperor was a man who would not be easily persuaded, he should be honest and tell the emperor exactly what the situation was.
If I have already been attracted to the emperor, then I should say it clearly.
Dignity is certainly useful sometimes, but if being honest can solve the problem, she would rather be honest. After all, being laughed at by the emperor is not a big deal.
The emperor sat up and looked at Qiao Yuange quietly. He saw that when she spoke, she was very serious, very gentle, and very sad.
So the emperor asked without hesitation: "If you think so, I just want to ask you, if I marry another woman, sleep with another woman, and fall in love with another woman, these are not important to you, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Yuange felt as if her heart was lifted up, because she found that the scenes described by the emperor only appeared in her mind at this time, making her feel uncomfortable to death.
She gritted her teeth and said nothing.
The emperor still stared at her. Then he said, "Although I have two women in the harem, I have never touched them. I don't like them. I only like you. I am willing to drive these two women out for you and make you the queen. Are you willing?"
What?
The emperor always said this in front of him, and of course Qiao Yuange always agreed with a hum, thinking that the emperor was just joking.
But that day, when the emperor said this, she felt as if she was moved again.
How could she not be tempted?
The man on the other side is the emperor, the king of this world.
Although he was carrying his responsibilities alone on his frail shoulders, Qiao Yuange still liked it.
She looked at the emperor, and when she saw the sincerity in this man's eyes, Qiao Yuange still didn't believe it!
She immediately sat up straight, then turned her eyes to the side, lowered her head and said, "I am not happy. I am not happy that the emperor has transferred his love to another woman. But I have no choice. I cannot accept being with you."
After Qiao Yuange finished speaking, he immediately put away the work in his hands, turned around, opened the door, and entered his own small room.
The emperor looked at Qiao Yuange's back and raised his eyebrows. Then he lay down heavily on the bed and said to himself, "Maybe I will succeed this time? Will I be able to succeed again next time?"
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned over and said to himself helplessly, "Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun, do you have a promising future? Look at what you said in front of Qiao Yuange. How can others like you when you are so cheap?"
But the emperor turned around and consoled himself: "Forget it, forget it, it's okay if I lose face. In order to be with Qiao Yuange, losing face once is not a big deal, right?"
He comforted himself in this way and finally fell asleep.
In Xiao Yuli's yard, after the bustle of the day faded away, the whole yard suddenly became quite deserted, and this kind of desertedness made people feel extremely lost and uncomfortable.
Fang Yuan was wearing a rather heavy wedding dress and sitting on the wedding bed.
She didn't know how long she had been sitting there. It seemed like she had just taken a nap and woke up again.
There seemed to be a maid guarding nearby.
She had tried to remove the veil several times before, but was rejected by the maid on the grounds that "it had to wait until the groom arrived before it could be removed."
But she also knew that too much time had passed. If Xiao Yuli could come, he would have come long ago.
So this time she tore off her veil. The maid didn't say anything, and even seemed a little drowsy. She just looked at Fang Yuan with regret.
It was already the late night, and the banquet in the yard had ended in the early night.
The groom should have come a long time ago, but he didn't come at all. What does this mean? It means that the groom will not come that night.
This was not all. The groom seemed to be trying to anger Fang Yuan on purpose, and from the two rooms next to the courtyard, the sound of men and women making love and laughing could be heard.
It was particularly harsh in this quiet little courtyard.
Fang Yuan naturally heard it, and after she took off her veil, she immediately looked up at the little maid and said to her, "Do you think I'm particularly ridiculous?"
The maidservant naturally heard the sadness and desolation in the princess' voice, and quickly said, "How can the princess be so ridiculous? The princess is the wife of the prince. No matter how arrogant those sluts are, can they surpass you?"
"Those little sluts? What does this mean? Didn't they say there are no women in Xiao Yuli's yard?"
Fang Yuan had been in the room all day and had no idea what was happening outside.
But the maid knew it.
She held it in for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said, "I heard that the emperor was happy the other day and rewarded His Highness with several girls. I guess they are playing with His Highness now, right?"
"What?! The emperor is simply going too far! He is..." After hearing this, Fang Yuan immediately planned to stand up and wanted to go find the emperor to argue.
But in an instant, she suddenly remembered that the emperor once said that her "good days" were still ahead.
This was because she whipped Qiao Yuange with a whip and the emperor stepped in to protect Qiao Yuange.
She didn't take it seriously at the time, thinking that the emperor was a man after all. A man shouldn't be so narrow-minded that he would even bother with a woman like her?
But the problem is, not only did the emperor, this man, actually bother with her, but he also used such despicable means?
