Chapter 6 His Majesty Arrives
The low growl of her proudest son, Cui Yunzhou, echoed in her ears as he betrayed the Cui family for Princess Qionghua.
She couldn't understand it, she couldn't figure it out at all, why was that?
Princess Qionghua was just a woman of high status and pretty appearance, so how could she have bewitched her precious son so completely?
Could it be because of pheromones?
Are the pheromones of top-tier Os so attractive to Alphas?
Madam Cui frowned deeply, deep in thought.
But no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't come up with an answer.
Because she is a B-type pheromone who cannot smell pheromones, everyone around her, except for her son, is a B-type pheromone.
Therefore, she couldn't get the answer to this question from the people around her.
There is no solution.
...
Inside the princess's residence, Tianyao was having a meal, attended by her maids.
She had just finished eating, put down her chopsticks, and was about to get up when she saw Yunzhou walking towards the inner hall.
"Go and get the prince consort a bowl and chopsticks."
Tianyao turned to the maidservant beside her and gave her instructions.
"yes."
The maid acknowledged and left.
"Yao'er".
When Tianyao gave the instructions, Yunzhou walked to Tianyao's side, pulled out the chair next to her, sat down, gently rested his head on Tianyao's shoulder, and called out weakly.
"What's wrong? Did they say something you don't like to hear again?"
Tianyao turned her head, lowered her eyes, and looked at Yunzhou's somewhat tired face. She naturally raised her right hand and gently stroked Yunzhou's right cheek, asking in a soft and gentle voice with a calming power.
The maids waiting around all lowered their heads and closed their ears, acting like wooden figures.
They were used to the intimate scenes between the princess and her husband, because they had seen them far too often.
Only those who know nothing about the relationship between a princess and her husband would think that the princess and her husband would divorce because the princess could not have children.
"Um."
Yunzhou responded listlessly.
Then, he straightened up and stared intently at Tianyao, his eyes pleading and vulnerable: "Yao'er, please release some pheromones for me, okay? I want to smell them."
!
Tianyao was startled, hesitated for a moment, and then confirmed.
"Now?"
"Yes, now, is that alright?"
Yunzhou bit his lower lip, looking like a big, rain-soaked dog, so pitiful that one couldn't help but grant him all his wishes.
Tianyao's heart softened, and she nodded gently to Yunzhou, carefully releasing her pheromones from the back of her left neck.
"It smells so good."
Yunzhou couldn't help but close his eyes and smell Tianyao's pheromones.
"All of you, get out and close the door."
Seeing Yunzhou so engrossed in the moment, Tianyao immediately spoke up, giving a command in a cold voice.
"Yes, Your Highness's command."
All the maids filed out and gently closed the door.
After all the maids had left, Yunzhou could no longer hold back. He pulled Tianyao into his arms.
He pressed his forehead against Tianyao's, his eyes somewhat unfocused, and asked.
"May I?"
"...Here?"
Tianyao sat on Yunzhou's lap, feeling Yunzhou's impulse, looked around, and asked uncertainly.
"Don't worry, I won't go all the way. Just some kissing and touching, okay?"
Yunzhou gently licked Tianyao's lips, soothingly.
"……good."
Upon hearing this, Tianyao's heart, which had been pounding, calmed down. She loosened her grip on Yunzhou's chest and pressed her body against him, letting him smell, kiss, and touch her.
"Yao'er".
"Yes, I'm here."
"Yao'er".
"Yes, I'm here."
...
Yunzhou called her name countless times, and each time, she replied softly but firmly, "Yes, I'm here," until Yunzhou leaned on her shoulder and fell asleep.
After Yunzhou's breathing stabilized, Tianyao turned her head and said to the outside.
"Someone come here."
The door was opened, and several maids walked in. Upon seeing the scene inside, they all blushed.
Tianyao's hair was disheveled and her clothes were in disarray, while Yunzhou's clothes were neat, but tears were hanging from the corners of his eyes, making him look somewhat pitiful.
Tianyao carefully stepped out of Yunzhou's arms, letting the maid tidy her clothes and hair, and gave her instructions again.
"Summon two guards in."
A moment later, two guards entered. By then, Tianyao's clothes and hair had been tidied up.
"Carry the prince consort to the bedchamber, be gentle, and don't wake him."
Tianyao stared at the guard and gave the order.
The guard responded, walked to Yunzhou, and lifted him up.
...
At the entrance of the princess's residence, a magnificent carriage inlaid with gold and wood came to a stop.
A line of guards, armed with swords and clad in armor, followed behind and to the side of the carriage.
"Whose carriage is this?"
"Why does this carriage look so much better than the princess's carriage?"
"That coachman, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before... Ah, I remember now, it's... it's Xiao Yelan, the commander of the Imperial Guards!"
"What? How is that possible? If the coachman is the commander of the Imperial Guards, then... who is the person in the carriage?"
"Who has such power that they can get the commander of the Imperial Guards to be their coachman?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, and two words simultaneously flashed through their minds—Your Majesty!
Only the current emperor of the Great Wei Kingdom can have the commander of the Imperial Guards serve as his coachman.
"Your Majesty, we have arrived at the Princess's residence."
Xiao Yelan gripped the hilt of his longsword with one hand and lifted the carriage curtain with the other, reporting respectfully.
Dressed in a black and gold robe and wearing a black and gold crown, Xiao Tianheng bent down and stepped out of the carriage. Seeing the people kneeling on the ground outside, he was somewhat surprised and asked in a loud voice.
"Why is everyone here? Is there something interesting happening at the Princess's residence?"
Everyone: "..."
No one dared to answer.
That's the current emperor; a single word from him could take their lives, and most importantly, he wouldn't even need to come up with an excuse.
The Emperor doesn't need any reason to kill people; he can kill whenever he wants, and who dares to object?
No one dared to object!
"You, answer me."
Xiao Tianheng stepped down from the carriage, walked up to Madam Cui, and looked down at her, saying...
His voice was very soft and his tone was indifferent, yet it made Madam Cui tremble uncontrollably.
"Your Majesty, we...we have come to see the princess."
Madam Cui knelt on the ground and returned, her kneeling posture displaying utmost piety.
"Oh, what a coincidence! I've also come to see her. Is she at her residence?"
Xiao Tianheng stood in front of Madam Cui, turned his head to look at the gate of the Princess's residence, and asked.
"Yes...yes, the princess is in the manor."
Madam Cui hurriedly replied, her tone extremely respectful.
"Since she is in the manor, why doesn't she come out to greet me?"
"Never mind, if she doesn't come to greet me, I'll just go in and find her. It's alright."
After speaking to himself, Xiao Tianheng turned around and walked towards the gate of the princess's residence, his steps neither hurried nor slow.
At this moment, a woman kneeling beside Madam Cui moved her knees, which were aching from kneeling, and whispered to Madam Cui.
"Madam, why won't His Majesty let us get up?"
"Shut up right now! How dare you question His Majesty?"
Madam Cui pressed her forehead to the ground, remaining motionless, and fiercely rebuked him.
Upon hearing this, the woman quickly shut her mouth.
At this moment, Madam Cui couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Yes, why didn't His Majesty let them get up?"
But despite her grumbling, she dared not remind His Majesty, saying, "Your Majesty, you forgot to tell us to get up."
