Chapter Ninety-Three: His Majesty the Vermilion Bird (Part Nine)
Gu Yanjing took a sip of wine, closed his eyes slightly, and listened to the pipa music below. Upon hearing this, he sneered, "You're living a more and more backward life these days, actually comparing your looks with a little girl in such a boring way."
They're not as good-looking as me, what's the point of comparing them?
Peony gently poured Gu Yanjing another full glass of wine.
"Your Majesty knows perfectly well why I wanted to compete with her. I was just too concerned about Your Majesty." Lu Lingjun sat down next to Gu Yanjing, staring at Gu Yanjing's lips, which were stained with wine, and couldn't help but lean in and lick them.
"This wine is really delicious."
Peony, who was serving the ordinary peony, clenched her little fists, while Mo Lan wished she could go up and beat the person up.
Then, Yan Chuchu's pipa playing stopped, and another person started playing, but it lacked the artistic conception of Yan Chuchu's performance; it could only be considered as trying to make the beauty smile.
"I've heard that Yan Chuchu is Murong Yu's confidante. Do you think he'll come today?"
Gu Yanjing pushed Lu Lingjun away with one hand and looked at the lively singing and dancing below through the screen.
Beautiful women abound, each one charming and alluring.
But none of them were his.
What a terrible thing that they did.
"Of course she will come. I sensed Nan Wan'er's presence." Seeing that he couldn't get closer, Lu Lingjun took Gu Yanjing's hand and played with it.
This hand is usually very cold, but it gets incredibly hot when it holds me.
"Murong Yu is quite amusing; he even brings my sister along when he goes to a brothel," Gu Yanjing sneered.
He then sent a telepathic message, summoning Gu Congxin to come over.
Gu Congxin, that idiot, promised to go find Nan Wan'er, but ended up getting lost in the palace all night, and his plan to leave the palace was ultimately thwarted.
I've never seen anyone so stupid.
"I have heard that Murong Yu is very fond of Princess Mingya." Lu Lingjun noticed Gu Yan's surprised expression and felt that someone was probably going to suffer tonight.
However, as long as that person isn't yourself, it's not a big problem.
"Love? That's true. The entire Gu family only has me and my adopted sister left. If I were to pass away one day, my sister would be the only remaining member of the royal bloodline."
Then wouldn't Murong Yu's ascension to the throne be perfectly legitimate?
“No, His Majesty has arrived, so Murong Yu will never have another chance,” Lu Lingjun said, echoing Gu Yanjing’s words.
Gu Yanjing sneered, downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, and said nothing more: "Heh."
There were also disciples of the Tianming Sect in this building, who had already reported Gu Yanjing's whereabouts to Murong Yu.
After Murong Yu entered, he didn't rush to see Yan Chuchu, but went straight to Gu Yanjing's room.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects. May Your Majesty be well." Murong Yu entered, followed by Ming Ya and several maids.
One of the maids was Nan Wan'er.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be well." Princess Mingya gave Gu Yanjing a proper curtsy.
The maids behind them also bowed.
But Nan Wan'er secretly looked up and frantically blinked at Gu Yanjing and Lu Lingjun.
Damn it, hurry up and take me away, your sister has been so enthusiastic these past few days she almost slept with me.
I'm straight, not gay or lesbian.
*Sobbing*
However, Gu Yanjing and Lu Lingjun seemed to be blind.
Gu Yan waved his hand, telling them to get up.
His other hand was still being held tightly by Lu Lingjun, which looked rather unseemly and lacked the dignity of a monarch.
Gu Yanjing wanted to take it back, but found that the man was grabbing it very tightly, and he couldn't get it back even after trying twice.
Rubbish.
"Your Majesty, who is this person?" Murong Yu looked at the subtle actions between the two, and his expression and eyes were just like a mother who had discovered her husband's infidelity.
