Chapter Thirty-Nine: Unbearable
Nan Wan'er looked at Gu Shiyue with sparkling eyes, eager to try, but she couldn't help but glance at Gu Yanjing guiltily, only to find that the other party was pulling and tugging at Lu Lingjun.
Instantly, all that urge to cheat vanished.
She sat on the phoenix throne and saw Gu Shiyue get up and leave. She made an excuse that she needed to go out for some fresh air and followed her.
Lu Lingjun sat down next to Gu Yanjing and said quietly, "Your Majesty, you're a little green on the head."
Gu Yanjing sneered, "Do you want to be cuckolded too?"
Lu Lingjun: "...No need, Your Majesty, I was wrong." (I admit my mistake. May I climb into your bed tonight?)
Obviously not.
With Lu Lingjun by his side, Gu Yanjing maintained a cold expression throughout. Nan Wan'er, who returned fifteen minutes later, looked at Gu Yanjing's face and instantly wondered if she had been exposed.
However, after glancing at Lu Lingjun, who was smiling apologetically, she felt that this matter had nothing to do with her at all.
The couple is having a fight.
She breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and saw Gu Shiyue looking calm and collected. For some reason, she suddenly felt that it was exciting and fun.
"Does Your Majesty really intend to sit idly by? After all, she is Your Majesty's nominal Empress."
And I, perhaps, am the true empress.
"You seem quite interested in her." Gu Yan raised an eyebrow, giving Lu Lingjun a very unfriendly look.
Lu Lingjun: ....I'm not me, don't talk nonsense. There's only Zhuque in my heart.
Lu Lingjun's survival instinct kicked in: "Your Majesty, don't you know who I have feelings for? I only pay attention to her because of Your Majesty." Because she cheated on you.
"So it was my fault after all?" Gu Yanjing chuckled.
Lu Lingjun: ......I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die.
After the banquet ended, Gu Yanjing sat cross-legged on the couch, looking through the Spring Rain painting presented by Yuanbao, and listening to the reports from the guards below.
Today, after Nan Wan'er left with Gu Shiyue, she dismissed the palace maids and went to find Gu Shiyue alone. However, Gu Shiyue, quite oblivious to her feelings, pushed away Nan Wan'er who tried to get close.
Nan Wan'er didn't feel sad at all; on the contrary, she was even more eager to try.
Gu Yanjing took a sip of tea, dismissed the guards, and continued to keep watch. If necessary, he would create some opportunities for Nan Wan'er and Gu Shiyue.
So, he granted Gu Shiyue the privilege of entering the palace at will overnight, and issued an imperial decree ordering Gu Shiyue to teach the Empress Dowager the zither.
When Nan Wan'er received the news, she was completely stunned.
She wants to learn a damn piano.
However, the thought that the handsome young man she had been smitten with would soon be coming to see her every day made her instantly happy.
It's just learning the piano, I'll do it.
Cutting off her hand wouldn't be a problem.
However, what does Gu Yanjing mean by this? Does he support her having an affair and want to maintain a superficial relationship with her, living separate lives?
Thinking about it this way, and considering Lu Lingjun's vicious, predatory attitude towards Gu Yanjing, Nan Wan'er felt that her idea was actually quite plausible.
After the guards left, Lu Lingjun entered silently.
Gu Congxin sighed.
Looks like I'll be sleeping on the roof again tonight. Waaah, the northwest wind is really biting.
"Your Majesty." Lu Lingjun was somewhat surprised when he saw the book in Gu Yanjing's hand.
Your Majesty, when did you develop this hobby?
I must say, this hobby is pretty good.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Yan snapped the book shut in surprise. Looking up, he saw that Gu Congxin, that idiot, had indeed quietly flown away, leaving Lu Lingjun and him behind.
"Reading with Your Majesty, huh? What book is Your Majesty reading? Shall I practice with Your Majesty?" Lu Lingjun sat down next to Gu Yanjing, his eyes like autumn water, captivating all who beheld him.
Gu Yan was shocked: ...I can't take it, I can't take it.
