Xiao Ling had originally wanted to give Yuzhu a good scolding, so that she could be more calm when she saw something like this in the future, and not act as if she was seeing something strange.
After all, given how perverted Chu Zei was, she knew that the days ahead would only get more difficult, not less.
But seeing Yuzhu so scared, she couldn't bring herself to curse.
After all, Yuzhu was just a maid who knew nothing and had never seen such a thing, so it was normal for her to be stunned.
It’s all the Chu bandits’ fault!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ling's resentment suddenly shifted, and his hand under the blanket firmly grasped the handle of Chu Ze.
"Hiss... Your Majesty, stop it..."
Chu Yi shuddered in pain, but fortunately the little empress was only venting her anger symbolically and didn't really want to hurt it.
"Forget it, you get up first." Xiao Ling's gaze returned to Yu Zhu, but there was still nothing he could do.
Yu Zhu, who knew His Majesty's temperament very well, naturally knew what this meant and was stunned. "Your Majesty... your servant..."
Xiao Ling looked a little uncomfortable, but he still scolded her.
"Fortunately, being seen by you is not a serious matter. I will not pursue what happened today for now. Please be more careful about this kind of thing in the future. If something like this happens again, I don't want to see any other maids or anyone else except you. Do you understand?"
Yuzhu was still stunned. She had never expected that His Majesty would not blame her at all and even said that it was no big deal if she saw it.
She clearly knew that His Majesty trusted her completely, and this intimacy made her burst into tears of gratitude.
"I dare not..."
"Don't you understand, maidservant?"
Before Yuzhu could speak, Chu Yi interrupted her.
"Your Majesty means that from now on, when I do this kind of thing with His Majesty, you can watch His Majesty intoxicated, but you must guard the door tightly and not let other servants see us."
After saying this, Chu Yi hugged the little empress's hand and picked a plum, then asked in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, am I correct? Is this what Your Majesty meant?"
"You...are so presumptuous! I didn't mean that at all! No one can tolerate such a thing!"
Xiao Ling was really embarrassed by the Chu bandit's frivolous behavior, and immediately denied it in an annoyed voice.
Yu Zhu also nodded hurriedly, "Your Majesty, I know what I am doing. I will never make such a mistake again and embarrass Your Majesty..."
Without waiting for Xiao Ling to reply, she hurriedly said the serious matter:
"Besides, Lord Mu has something to discuss with His Majesty and is already outside the Purple Palace..."
Hearing this, Xiao Ling swallowed the words he was about to say to Yu Zhu.
"I understand. Then let Mu Ci come in."
Yuzhu agreed and turned to leave.
Seeing her leave the imperial study, Xiao Ling always felt that something was missing.
Then she suddenly exclaimed.
Oh no!
I spoke too quickly just now and forgot to ask Yuzhu to tell Mu Ci to wait a while before coming in. You know, she has been fighting with Chu Zei and hasn't had time to clean up the mess yet.
Realizing this, Xiao Ling's face suddenly became anxious.
The dragon robe was still rolled up, and the Chu thief also looked dirty and disheveled. The two of them were barely covered with a blanket.
Under the blanket, it's still the same as it was at the beginning...
Xiao Ling panicked and wanted to stand up and tidy up as soon as possible, but Chu Yi pressed on his shoulders again.
"Your Majesty, your robe is probably extremely dirty. How are you going to meet Commander Mu now?"
Hearing Chu Yi's gloating tone, Xiao Ling was furious, "Then what do you say we should do? Are we supposed to change clothes?"
Chu Yi thought for a moment, "Why not just leave it at that? Mu Ci won't make a difference anyway. Aren't they all His Majesty's most trusted men?"
Xiao Ling: “…”
Chu thief, you are really crazy!
After all, Mu Ci is the commander of the Tianwei Army, and he is always able to see the big picture from the small details. What if he is found to have any flaws?
But there was no way. The dragon robe she was wearing was wrinkled and wet, and she looked extremely ridiculous under the blanket. It was too late to go to the bedroom to change.
I guess I will meet Mu Ci as soon as I walk out of the imperial study.
It was too late for the Chu bandits to get the watch, and their official uniforms were not in order. The king and his ministers looked ridiculous.
Xiao Ling felt his legs go cold, and so did Chu Zei.
Her mind was in a mess, and before long, Mu Ci had already entered the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Guards have investigated and discovered some movement in the capital since this morning's court session."
Mu Ci always speaks straightforwardly. As soon as he comes in, he states the purpose of his visit.
When she looked towards the dragon throne, she was stunned.
The scene on the dragon throne at this time was very strange. Not only was there His Majesty, but there was also... Chu Yi?
Although he had known for a long time that His Majesty had secretly married Lord Chu last year and that the monarch and his subject were quite affectionate, Mu Ci was still shocked.
Aren't your Majesty and Lord Chu a little too affectionate?
How could she have ended up in Lord Chu's arms in the imperial study, sharing the same blanket and even sleeping on the same quilt?
Mu Ci didn't dare to think too much. If the civil officials knew about this scene, and knew that His Majesty was so neglecting state affairs in the imperial study and only cared about love affairs, they would be so indignant that they would launch a resistance.
"What's going on? Are some ministers colluding with each other?" Xiao Ling's already uneasy mood suddenly became serious.
The matter concerning the court officials was of great importance. Even Chu Yi, who had originally wanted to tease the little empress in front of Mu Ci, stopped kneading her hands and became curious about what the Tianwei had investigated.
Seeing the emperor asking this, Mu Ci put aside other irrelevant thoughts and spoke respectfully:
