Chapter 18



Probably because she ate too much mutton during the day, Yan Shu felt a little hot tonight. In

addition, the dragon in the hall was burning vigorously, which made her very hot, so

she kicked off the quilt and tore open her clothes. But how could she know that someone would come at this time?

And there was no notice, just went straight into the hall and lifted the curtain.

However, at this time, she was sleeping soundly, and she didn't know that someone was staring at her.

Yuwen Lan looked at her for a while, silently taking in the beautiful scenery, but he was not easily moved.

After all, he still had a lot of doubts.

At first, he hadn't judged whether she was really asleep or pretending to sleep, so he asked, "You went to bed so early?"

But there was no response.

The girl still closed her eyes, her long eyelashes covered her face like mutton-fat jade, her cherry lips were slightly pouted, and her chest rose and fell with her breathing. It seemed that she was sleeping soundly.

Yuwen Lan, "..."

It was not a good idea to waste time like this, so he decided to wake her up, and said, "Li Guiyi."

His voice became deeper and sounded very dignified.

However, there was still no response.

The girl was sleeping like a dead pig, without even opening her eyelids.

Yuwen Lan's face turned black, and he simply said, "Li Yanshu!"

This time she finally responded. Yanshu muttered, "I'm so sleepy, don't make noise..." Then she turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

From beginning to end, she didn't even open her eyes.

Yuwen Lan, "..."

Even thunder can't wake her up?

After thinking about it, he simply lay down beside her.

The tent was dim, with only the light of a small bed lamp outside.

Yuwen Lan sighed and said to himself, "How do you know all that?" As soon

as he finished speaking, the person in the dream actually laughed, "Eating watermelon."

Yuwen Lan, "???"

What? Eating watermelon?

He tried to ask again, "What kind of watermelon?"

But she didn't speak again.

Yuwen Lan, "...Hey!"

She was still sleeping soundly, breathing slowly and long.

Yuwen Lan saw it and suddenly pulled her into his arms. She

was still sleeping soundly.

He searched for her cherry lips and kissed her.

And just like last time, an indescribable feeling arose in his heart.

But that numb place.

Still disappointing.

And at this moment, the person in his arms suddenly opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty..."

She seemed a little surprised, and seemed still in a daze. Yuwen Lan paused, and for some reason he held her head in his lapel, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

A moment later, she really fell asleep again.

Yuwen Lan put away his annoyance and disappointment, and simply closed his eyes.

He still believed that it would not always be like this, and that God would not treat him so cruelly.

The warmth and softness in his arms and the long breathing in his ears were like gentle waves, drowning him one by one.

Finally, he gradually fell asleep.

That night, Yuwen Lan actually had a dream.

You know, he has never had a dream since he ascended the throne.

He dreamed that he was lying in a soft cloud, surrounded by the spring sunshine, which made him feel warm. His

body swayed with the clouds, as if he was back to swinging on a swing when he was a child. He slept

like this all night, and when he woke up, it was already dawn.

This was the first time he slept with a woman, and he slept quite well.

However, he still remembered the purpose of his visit last night.

Seeing that she had delayed him for another night, it was not the same time.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the girl beside him.

However, he saw that she had messed up her pajamas again at some point, revealing a piece of white.

Yuwen Lan, "..."

He silently pulled her clothes, and then spoke, "Li Guiyi."

Yan Shu also had enough sleep and gradually opened her eyes.

She was a little confused at first, but after seeing him clearly, her eyes widened and she asked in surprise, "Your Majesty? When did you come?"

Yuwen Lan raised his eyebrows, "I slept in the same bed with you all night, and you didn't notice it?"

What? This man actually slept next to her all night?

Yan Shu shook her head in confusion.

- To be honest, she has a problem that can't be considered a problem, that is, she sleeps very deeply, and once she falls asleep, she will not wake up even if there is thunder.

She tried to recall and vaguely remembered that someone talked to her in her dream last night. Could it be the emperor?

Her heart skipped a beat and she looked at the other person hesitantly - did she say anything nonsense last night?

Yuwen Lan was about to ask her, so he took the opportunity to say, "I have a question for you."

Yan Shu felt a little guilty, "...Yes."

But he said, "Did you ask Fu Hai to investigate the eunuch in Qianming Palace?"

So that's what he wanted to ask.

Yan Shu felt relieved and said, "I just mentioned it to Eunuch Fu, and he found the person himself."

Yuwen Lan raised his eyebrows, "Then why did you remind him to investigate?"

Yan Shu said, "Your Majesty didn't want others to know that you were injured, but even the Queen Mother knew about it. It must be that someone spread it out. Anyway, it won't hurt to investigate."

[This is what is called the dark under the lamp. No matter how wise and powerful you are, there are things you can't take care of. 】

Yuwen Lan, "..."

I have to say that this is indeed the case.

Although he had the ability to read minds, he could only hear what people close to him were thinking. There were so many people in the Qianming Palace, and he couldn't see everyone.

Moreover, it was also a fact that the various forces of the previous dynasty had infiltrated the harem when the late emperor was still alive, and he had not yet completely cleaned it up.

He asked again, "Then how did you detect that the water for washing your face was poisonous?"

Yan Shu said, "I have a sharp nose. I knew that the water tasted wrong the moment I smelled it that day."

But in her heart, she was tut-tutting, [This is really uncomfortable to hear. Do you have to let me be tricked and have my face ruined? After all, isn't it because of you? Isn't this the fate of the target?]

Yuwen Lan, "..."

You blame him for this?

But to be honest... it seems to be true.

Because of his approach, other women in the palace wanted to kill her.

Well, she was in danger this time, so he had to say, "I will ask Fu Hai to send you a few more reliable palace maids. This kind of thing should not happen again."

Yan Shu said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

But she pouted in her heart, [Is that it? No compensation for my mental state? I was scared anyway. ]

Yuwen Lan, "???"

Compensation for my mental state?

Haha, he knew that she would get more than she deserved.

At this moment, he saw her reaching out to grab her collar, and she seemed to be on guard against him.

Yuwen Lan couldn't help but feel bad for a moment, and said, "What are you grabbing? When I came last night, you were almost naked."

What?

Yan Shu's eyes widened. No, not even a hair?

Then, then, then, then, what did he do to her?

But she saw Yuwen Lan leaning close to her ear and said, "What do you think I will do?"

Yan Shu, "... Your Majesty!"

Rogue!!!

But she saw him raise his eyebrows calmly, "Why are you so nervous? Aren't you my concubine?"

After he finished speaking, he actually lifted the bed curtain and said, "I have something else to do later." Then he got off the bed.

This meant that she was asked to help him dress. Yan Shu was angry for a while, but she had no choice but to follow him down. Just as

she was helping him put on his clothes, she saw him say to the outside of the door, "Fu Hai, pass a message to the chef, I will have dinner here this morning."

Huh?

Before Fu Hai could respond, Yan Shu's eyes lit up.

Does this mean that she can have a free meal?

Yuwen Lan, "..."

Just now I was still complaining about him, a meal is enough?

Of course.

When the Shangshenjian brought the food and set it up, and the two of them washed up and sat down at the table, Yan Shu was already smiling and in high spirits.

She looked around the table, almost wanting to wow.

——This is different from the last time they ate hot pot on a snowy day.

At that time, she ordered the hot pot herself, and the kitchen sent dishes according to her position, but this time it was for the emperor.

The original round table was not enough, so the palace servants brought another one, and then all the dishes were put down.

In the middle of the table, there were two hot pots, bubbling with duck stewed with bird's nest and chicken stewed with deer tendon and bamboo shoots; on the three plates around, there were goose with five-spice sauce, pan-fried lamb leg, and pickled fish slices; there were also two desserts, sweet-scented osmanthus cheese and white jade paste; the main course was a plate of plump white deer meat buns, and there was hot beef marrow soup in a white porcelain stew pot.

Yan Shu was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.

What are these?

Is it really just breakfast? ? ?

Does anyone really eat hot pot in the morning?

Give me two!!!

However, someone in a dragon robe glanced at her calmly and said, "Eat."

Yan Shu agreed and picked up the chopsticks but didn't know which one to eat first. Fortunately, Fu Hai called the eunuch to serve the dishes, so that the ignorant Yan Shu knew how to use the chopsticks. She

tried the warm pot first, and when her tongue tasted the flavor, her eyes lit up immediately.

The bird's nest and duck meat complement each other, and the deer tendons melted in the mouth, making the chicken soup more delicious. They were all top-notch.

She tried the goose in sauce again, and it was sweet and delicious.

The pickled fish was also outstanding. The fish meat was well-seasoned and even the fish bones were crispy.

The thinly sliced ​​lamb leg meat is grilled on the iron plate. It is tender and retains rich juice, which is even more wonderful! After

eating the dishes, I had a venison bun. It turned out that the venison filling is also very delicious, bursting with juice, and the taste is even more mellow!

Needless to say, the desserts, the sweet-scented osmanthus cheese is fragrant and soft, melts in the mouth, and has the sweetness of osmanthus, which is so delicious that it makes people want to dance. The white jade cake steamed with glutinous rice and lotus seeds is sweet and soft. Yan Shu ate three in one breath

. Finally, drink a bowl of mellow and incomparable ox marrow soup, and feel like you can live for three hundred years.

...

This is the noisiest breakfast Yuwen Lan has ever eaten.

While eating, you have to listen to her various exclamations and screams in your heart.

He even doubted that there was something wrong with his tongue? Why didn't he taste the flavors she said before?

Yan Shu was about to eat another bun, but saw Yuwen Lan suddenly put down his chopsticks.

This meant that he had finished eating, so she had to put them down as well.

But she still felt a little regretful, [Won't you eat a little longer? She wasn't full yet...]

"..."

Yuwen Lan looked at her, "I'm leaving, you eat slowly."

He stood up.

Yan Shu was overjoyed and hurriedly stood up to see him off.

As she was about to leave the palace, Yuwen Lan suddenly turned around to look at her and said meaningfully, "If there is nothing else, I will come again tonight."

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, "Yes."

[Okay, okay, then I can have another meal tomorrow! ]

Yuwen Lan, "..."

The author has something to say:

A certain emperor: My beloved concubine doesn’t really love me.

Yan Shu: Forget it, forget it. I love you for the sake of Yu Shan.

The emperor cried even louder.
