Chapter 14: What is the crime of coveting the emperor’s beauty?



Oh my god! Taishe is dead!

Did the First Emperor think that I coveted his beauty?!

What crime is it to covet the emperor's beauty?

Wouldn't she kill all nine generations of her family?

After Ying Zheng teased the shy little fox, a hint of joy appeared on his brows.

He didn't care about her offense.

It is human nature to like beautiful things.

Even he, seeing her like the Moon Fairy, wouldn't he unconsciously be more tolerant?

What the emperor did not realize was that among the many beauties of all shapes and sizes in the past, he had never shown any mercy to any of them.

Not to mention this unique specialness and tolerance.

As the sound of horse hooves gradually stopped, the carriage finally arrived at its destination.

Chu Yuening couldn't wait to get out of the car and escape the awkward and suffocating atmosphere inside.

She looked at the vast fields that had been plowed, put away her messy thoughts, and got into work mode.

Chu Yuening instructed the farmers to plant the sweet potato seedlings in neat rows, and told them to water and fertilize them on time.

After learning about Qin Chao's crude composting fertilization method, she also taught a more scientific and reasonable method.

Although the fertility of the fields here is acceptable, regular fertilization can make crops grow faster and produce higher yields.

After everything was arranged, Chu Yuening remembered Qin Shihuang who she had thrown aside.

She hurried over and apologized sheepishly.

"Your Majesty, please do not blame me. I was just too focused."

"No problem."

Ying Zheng thought of Chu Yuening's confident look when she spoke just now, and felt relieved. He couldn't help but look forward to the scene of autumn harvest.

After ordering the soldiers to guard the place well, the two of them got on a car and prepared to go back together.

I thought the return journey would be as smooth and easy as the journey here.

Unexpectedly, when the carriage was halfway there, it suddenly braked.

Chu Yuening, who had no time to react, fell forward and hit the emperor's strong chest.

Ying Zheng looked alert. He put one hand around the woman's waist to steady her, and with the other hand he grasped the Emperor's Sword at his waist, and listened carefully to the movements outside.

Outside the carriage, one could hear shouting, the sound of swords and knives, and screams.

He tensed his body, ready to draw his sword at any moment.

At this moment, Chu Yuening felt dizzy and fell into a familiar embrace, with a faint scent of sandalwood lingering at the tip of her nose.

At this moment, the big hand around her waist tightened more and more, and the hot temperature of the palm made her delicate body tremble.

This feels so familiar...

Did she forget something?

Some hazy images flashed through Chu Yuening's mind, but she couldn't recall them at all, as if she was shrouded in a layer of fog.

I don’t know how long it took.

The noise outside finally died down, and a male voice reported respectfully from outside.

"Your Majesty, the assassin has been killed. He was a remnant of the Qi State."

"Deal with it and return to the palace first."

Ying Zheng gave the order calmly, and his body relaxed, only then he realized that he was still holding a warm and soft beauty in his arms.

The softness of his palm made him linger, but he immediately withdrew his hand.

Although the separation of men and women was not a serious issue in the Qin Dynasty, a woman's reputation was still very important. It was already difficult for a woman to be an official, and he didn't want her to be subjected to rumors anymore.

Chu Yuening had originally relied on the man to keep her footing, but now that he let go, she fell completely before she could even scream.

Ying Zheng lowered his eyes and stared at the woman leaning against his abdomen, and fell into a rare silence.

He didn't expect that he would end up making things worse.

An indescribable ambiguity quietly arose and spread between the two people who were hugging each other tightly.

After Chu Yuening came to her senses, she hurriedly sat back down, propped up by her thighs.

"I'm sorry, Master Shi Huang, I really didn't mean it!"

"I'm definitely not coveting your beauty!"

Immersed in shame and embarrassment, she only realized that she had said what was in her heart after seeing the emperor's strange look.

“…”

“…”

At this moment, the silence in the carriage was deafening.

Some people are still alive, but they have actually been gone for quite some time.
