At noon in summer, the sun is shining brightly, the gentle breeze is also wrapped in the heat wave, and the noisy cicadas are chirping one after another, making people more irritable.
The hall with black and gold carvings looks solemn and majestic. In the corner, an exquisite ice basin is filled with ice cubes, with wisps of cool mist rising from it.
Memorials were piled on the desk, and in the center was a world map with detailed markings of various regions and terrain.
The emperor, dressed in a black and gold dragon robe, lowered his eyes to gaze at the map, his slender hands supporting his forehead, lost in thought.
Today, the border situation is gradually stabilizing.
The construction plan of Meng County and Hexi County has become the biggest problem at present.
Because they are located in the desert, most of the territory of the two counties is Gobi, wasteland and plateau.
The natural environment is harsh, with yellow sand all over the sky, strong winds and heavy snow from time to time, and a huge temperature difference between day and night, making it not suitable for living.
This is also the reason why there are many nomadic peoples in the north.
But large tracts of territory have been incorporated into the empire and cannot be discarded.
After all, it took a lot of effort to get it.
Therefore, the current situation is somewhat awkward.
These territories are like chicken ribs, tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.
As time passed, the hall became quieter and quieter.
The handsome and majestic emperor remained motionless for a long time, like a cold and perfect statue.
Isolating myself from the noise of cicadas, I immersed myself in my own world.
After a while, a breeze blew the corners of his clothes.
Ying Zheng sighed, put down his arms, slowly stood up and walked to the window, standing with his hands behind his back.
He gazed quietly at the blue sky, his phoenix eyes were deep and distant, with tiny golden lights floating in his eyes, but it was still impossible to see through his thoughts.
Just as he was deep in thought, his ears keenly caught the sound of footsteps.
Light and agile, like a fluttering butterfly, it quietly landed in his heart.
Almost instantly, the man's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, his thin lips curled up slightly, and a smile was evident.
However, he did not move, but acted as if he was unaware and cooperated with someone's little trick.
Chu Yuening looked at the tall figure by the window, her beautiful eyes curved and her bright eyes flashed with cunning.
She tiptoed, walked very slowly and lightly, and held her breath so as not to alert the enemy.
After a while, the footsteps stopped.
The sneaky woman came up behind the man.
She looked up at the tall figure, then looked at her own height which was only up to his chest, and decisively gave up the idea of covering her eyes.
Then, she quickly threw herself on his back, hugged his thin waist tightly with both hands, and deliberately lowered her voice to act mysterious.
"Guess who I am?"
Ying Zheng felt the softness behind him, and the smile on his face grew wider. Golden light condensed in his eyes, flowing with gentle waves.
He lowered his head and stared at the pink and tender hands, then spoke in a low voice, with a slightly rising tone and a hint of teasing in his smile.
"Zhao Zhao?"
“…”
Hearing this outrageous answer, the evil taste in Chu Yuening's eyes disappeared instantly.
She was not stupid, so she naturally understood that the man was teasing her.
She bit her lip, pinched his waist in anger, and argued angrily.
"How can Zhao Zhao be so tall?"
Ying Zheng chuckled softly and held the little hand that was making trouble at his waist.
Then he turned around, picked up his little wife, put her in his arms, and coaxed her gently.
"It turns out to be my wife."
"I'm shortsighted."
The sudden leap into the air made Chu Yuening scream, and she subconsciously wrapped her arms around the man's neck.
Ying Zheng looked at her panicked little face, kissed her lovingly, and his calm tone made people feel extremely reassured.
"Don't worry, Yue Ning, I won't let you fall."
The man was nearly two meters tall, with a strong build. The 1.6-meter-tall woman looked like a petite glass doll in his arms.
Moreover, he was very strong and could easily lift the woman up with just one strong arm.
After Chu Yuening calmed down, she looked at this strange posture curiously.
At this moment, she was sitting on the man's arms, her upper body leaning on his chest, and her legs hanging in the air.
He shook his calves tentatively, but his body remained very stable.
Seeing this, I finally felt relieved.
She moved her hips, found the most comfortable position, then rubbed the man's neck and sighed with satisfaction.
Ying Zheng looked at his wife nestled obediently in his arms, and a strange sense of satisfaction surged in his heart.
He tilted his head slightly and kissed the delicate girl's fair face. His voice was lazy and leisurely, inexplicably bewitching.
"Does Yue Ning like this posture?"
The two of them were very close, their noses touching, their warm breaths entwined, and they were extremely intimate.
Chu Yuening raised her eyes and met the man's smiling phoenix eyes. She blinked her eyelashes in confusion, revealing a sense of confusion and innocence.
Um?
Why does this sound weird?
She shook her head, physically interrupting some awkward associations, and answered honestly.
"That's good. I can kiss A Zheng easily~"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng curled his lips slightly and stared at the woman intently, with ripples in his clear and bright black eyes.
It seems to be hinting at something.
Chu Yuening understood instantly, and her ears turned red, but she still followed her heart and fulfilled the man's wish.
She held the handsome face close to her, and covered it with her soft and tender pink lips, leaving a string of light kisses.
From the sharp jaw, to the cherry-colored thin lips, the high nose bridge, to the deep eye sockets and long eyelashes...
She seemed to be tracing his facial features bit by bit with her lips.
The gentle kiss was neither passionate nor lingering.
But it is exciting enough.
It is like a breeze in the morning, or like the fragrance of flowers on the branches, blowing quietly and moistening everything silently.
