Helian Yu blinked innocently and waved to the Imperial Concubine: "No. Good night, Your Majesty."
Helian Yu struggled to get out of Helian Su's hands, jumped onto the carpet, and called out to Chang'an Xingchun: "Chang'an, Xingchun, let's go!"
The two of them quickly saluted Helian Su and the Imperial Concubine, and hurriedly caught up with Helian Yu.
"Chang Hai, go and see him off." Helian Su said.
Helian Su retracted his gaze and reached out his hand to the Imperial Concubine, who quickly took his hand and walked to the front of the couch.
The imperial concubine stood beside him and took off his clothes.
"Does Yan'er know what happened in the palace of Concubine Xue?"
The Imperial Concubine chuckled and handed Helian Su's outer robe to Dai Yan, the senior palace maid beside her. "Your Majesty has granted me the right to hold the Phoenix Seal. I am naturally familiar with the affairs of the harem."
"You are honest." Helian Su raised his lips and put his big hand on the imperial concubine's waist. "I just saw the rouge on the table. Was it also sent by Xiao Yu'er?"
"Your Majesty has good eyesight." The Imperial Concubine raised her eyes with a springy look, and her soft hands slightly opened, as agile as a snake, reaching into Helian Su's waist, going deeper and deeper, "This girl Zhaoyang is interesting. She wants to use some small toys to inquire from me about your Majesty's harem. She also said that when she edits a book and makes money in the future, she will give me a share, haha..."
Helian Su gave Dai Yan a look, Dai Yan nodded, and silently retreated to the outer hall, and whispered to someone to prepare hot water.
In the inner hall of Yiku Palace, incense was burning in the goose pear curtains, and shadows of people were overlapping behind the bed curtains.
Fengyang Pavilion was silent. The palace lanterns in the inner hall were still on, but there was no one serving there.
Helian Yu took out his diary, lay down beside the pillow, and wrote on it.
[On the tenth day of the second month, I took my master out for a day of fun! ] [We saw fields, played with kites, rode on a pleasure boat, and met Liu Qiyue on the way! However, she seemed a little different. ] [She was no longer as carefree and unrestrained as before, and felt so restrained and sad. Did the prince treat her harshly? Alas~ If she could escape from the prince's mansion, maybe she could become the original Liu Qiyue again? But what about Daxia? ] [It seems that you can't live without eating people? ] [Forget it, let's prepare a birthday gift for the prince first! ] [High-yield wheat seeds with a yield of 100 dan per mu! The prince will definitely like it! ] [It benefits the country and the people, and it can also help the prince gain merit. I am so smart. ] [What should I do to trick the prince~] That night.
In the inner hall of Yikun Palace, Helian Su hugged the Imperial Concubine, his shoulders trembled, his face changed slightly, the Imperial Concubine lowered her eyes to hide her embarrassment, and lay in Helian Su's arms, her fingertips lightly sliding across his chest, panting softly: "Your Majesty, I just heard from Chang Hai that you have been handling government affairs today. You must be exhausted from working non-stop."
"When we arrived at Yikun Palace, I was also negligent. Not only did I not let you rest and rest, but I even pestered you to have absurd fun. I know my crime."
The Imperial Concubine put her face against Helian Su's chest, rubbing it gently like a cat, and her voice was tender and aggrieved: "Your Majesty, please punish Yan'er, it is Yan'er who does not know the general situation."
Helian Su was thinking about the 100-dan wheat yield per mu, so he didn't have much time to listen to the imperial concubine's coquetry. But he enjoyed it very much. He kneaded the imperial concubine's soft breasts and looked at her with a deep and distant gaze: "Yan'er, do you know when to plant the spring wheat?"
The Imperial Concubine was full of lust and chuckled, "Your Majesty, you can't test Yan'er. Yan'er accompanied Your Majesty on two incognito visits. The spring wheat planting is in early March, right?"
"Yan'er, do you know the yield of spring wheat per mu?"
"About fifteen or twenty shi. When the harvest is bad, less than ten shi." As soon as the imperial concubine finished speaking, she was turned over and pressed on the quilt. She bumped into Helian Su's deep eyes, which were full of spring. Her heart trembled and she exclaimed in a low voice, "Your Majesty?"
Helian Su couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, and he buried his head in chewing the dogwood, "Yan'er is smart."
Although the Imperial Concubine didn't know what she was so "smart", but Helian Sulong was so happy and so enthusiastic towards her that she just hugged him in a daze and let him go.
After several attempts, the imperial concubine was completely exhausted. She seemed to be soaked in water, limp, and begged for mercy in a tender voice: "Your Majesty, you have to attend the court tomorrow. Please let me go."
"You sleep, I'm not sleepy yet."
The Imperial Concubine couldn't open her eyes and was so tired, "Your Majesty, I am sorry for being rude..."
Before she lost consciousness, the Imperial Concubine felt sweet in her heart. She was the first concubine to fall asleep while being served by the Emperor...
Dai Yan applied medicine on the Imperial Concubine's body to fade away the mottled blue and red marks on her body.
"Dai Yan, send someone to ask Sheng'er about the spring planting, especially the spring wheat."
The Imperial Concubine lay on the couch, her beautiful peach blossom eyes half-closed, her aura lazy and noble, completely devoid of the tenderness she had last night.
"I understand." Dai Yan agreed, with a pain in her eyes, "My lady, you were tired last night."
"Not bad." The Imperial Concubine closed her eyes lazily. "There are new people entering the palace. They are beautiful and have clean temperaments. They are all likable. Your Majesty is not tired of me. I am lucky."
"Did Zhaoyang send anything?" The Imperial Concubine smiled and raised her eyelids to look at Dai Yan. "The little girl is my treasure. If she hadn't come yesterday, why would Your Majesty come?"
Dai Yan was a household slave who entered the palace. He was the most loyal to the Imperial Concubine and knew best what she was thinking: "A pair of Eastern pearls and two Southern pastry chefs have been sent, but the princess has not yet left, so Eunuch Chang'an accepted them on her behalf."
"You haven't gotten up yet? Is it already noon? Was that girl naughty last night?"
"Your Highness guessed right." Dai Yan smiled, "I heard from Chang'an that the princess couldn't sleep at night, so she sneaked up to the roof alone. If Xingchun hadn't taken a look in the inner hall, she would have caught a cold."
"This girl..." The Imperial Concubine laughed and scolded, "No wonder His Majesty called her a bastard! She has no manners!"
Dai Yan was applying ointment to the Imperial Concubine, and the eunuch outside the palace raised his voice to report: "Your Majesty, Miss Xingchun from Fengyang Pavilion wants to see you——"
Dai Yan put clothes on the imperial concubine: "Please come in."
The Imperial Concubine stood up and sat on the chair, and Xingchun entered the hall to pay her respects.
"Xingchun pays homage to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine. May Her Majesty be well and safe."
"Get up."
"Your Majesty, His Highness ordered me to deliver it to you..." Xingchun was shy and couldn't say it.
The Imperial Concubine was delighted and was much more lenient towards Helian Yu and her palace servants. "Did the little girl give me a problem?"
When Xingchun heard the Imperial Concubine's gentle smile, her nervousness was reduced a lot: "His Highness sent you a set of underwear."
"Underwear?" The Imperial Concubine was puzzled. "Why did Zhaoyang give me underwear?"
Xingchun presented the inner garment and said boldly, "His Highness said that if you wear it to see His Majesty, His Majesty will be very happy. If it is effective, please introduce it to the concubines in the palace."
The Imperial Concubine was holding a pitiful amount of cloth, her cheeks flushed. She asked Dai Yan to dismiss the palace maids and fanned away the heat on her face: "Zhaoyang is really a bad girl!"
Xingchun knelt down quickly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Dai Yan bent down and helped Xingchun up: "Don't be afraid, Miss Xingchun, the queen has no intention of blaming the princess."
The Imperial Concubine turned sideways, fiddling with the underwear that was sent to her, and chuckled, "I love Zhaoyang so much, how could I blame her? What does this devilish girl plan to do?"
Xingchun's face flushed red, as if she was cooked. "His Highness also said that if this dress is effective, he will open a shop and sell it in Beijing."
