Chapter 11: Sleeping Again
Tonight the Emperor is turning over the name card of Lady Yang.
Just by counting on your fingers you know it's Lady Yang's turn.
Lady Yang began to dress up before the sun set.
Until the moon was high in the sky and Chunluan's car was about to come to pick her up.
Concubine Yang became increasingly nervous and grabbed Shanhu's hand. "Will the Emperor like me dressed like this?"
Shanhu was pinched so hard that she felt pain, and could only comfort her: "It's nice for you to dress like this, my lady."
Thinking of the impending bedtime, Lady Yang lowered her head and smiled shyly. She walked to the dressing table and put on more lip balm.
"My lady, Eunuch Li is here."
Concubine Yang was stunned. Why did Eunuch Li come?
Upon seeing her, Li Dexian immediately bowed and greeted her: "Your servant greets Lady Yang."
"No need to be so polite, sir."
Lady Yang asked cautiously, "Why is the eunuch here?"
"Um... My lady, you don't have to sleep with me today. The Second Princess is not feeling well, and the Emperor has already rushed to Jinxiu Palace." Li Dexian explained with an awkward smile.
The color drained from Lady Yang's face, and she said weakly, "I understand. Thank you, Eunuch Li."
Li Dexian was not in a position to stay, so he left after giving the notice. But just as he left the house, he heard the sound of broken porcelain and a woman's soft sobbing.
Li Dexian quickened his pace and left.
It was finally Concubine Yang's turn to sleep with the emperor, but she was snatched away by her own sister. It would be hard for anyone to accept this.
If you ask him, Concubine Wan is also a straightforward person...
Inside the house, Lady Yang threw everything she could. Angrily, she took off the hairpin from her bun and threw it hard on the ground.
In an instant, the jade on the hairpin shattered into pieces.
Shanhu clasped her hands together and said dryly, "My lady, calm down. Don't get angry."
Lady Yang cried, "How can I not be angry?"
Tears fell down her face, her hands clutched at her clothes on her chest, as if she couldn't breathe.
"She and I are sisters, and even she doesn't care about my dignity. From now on, there will be more and more people laughing at me and bullying me."
Shanhu comforted her, "My lady, as long as there is life, there is no fear of running out of firewood. Perhaps, perhaps the Second Princess is really ill."
Concubine Yang's voice was shaky: "It just so happened that when it was my turn to sleep with the Second Princess, she fell ill."
Coral had nothing to say and just stayed quietly.
The second princess was indeed sick.
However, she started feeling unwell in the morning, and Concubine Wan also called in the imperial physician.
Xie Junyao was busy with government affairs and didn't know about it until Concubine Wan went to ask for it. Naturally, she was going to see the Second Princess.
The Second Princess was still young, and especially clingy when she felt unwell. Therefore, Xie Junyao naturally stayed in Jinxiu Palace.
When it was Concubine Wan's sister Yang Meiren's turn to sleep with him, Concubine Wan intercepted her. This news caused a great ripple in the palace.
Some felt sorry for Lady Yang, while others gossiped about the relationship between the two sisters.
The next day, Concubine Wan was not feeling well and did not come to pay her respects. The concubines naturally did not miss this opportunity and "accidentally" talked about this matter.
He comforted the dark circles under his eyes and looked at Lady Yang, who hadn't slept well all night. The bold one secretly ridiculed Concubine Wan's tyranny.
Wen Wanyu listened with great interest.
In the afternoon, Concubine Wan also sent a gift of apology to Lady Yang. The matter ended there.
That’s what gossip in the harem is like, it comes quickly and goes quickly.
It was fifteen days later that I saw the emperor again.
During these fifteen days, the Emperor spent four days in the harem, summoning only new beauties who had never slept with him before.
The Emperor is not a man of lust, unlike some emperors who spend twenty-nine out of thirty days drunk in the harem.
Wen Wanyu was quite open-minded about this. To put it bluntly, her relationship with the emperor was just that of friends, each seeking what they needed. Without him in her heart and without caring about him, she would not feel uncomfortable.
Xie Junyao arrived at Changlixuan before dark.
Wen Wanyu was startled by his sudden attack, so she changed into a decent dress and went out to greet him.
When Xie Junyao was still some distance away from Wuyou Palace, he saw Wen Wanyu. She was a small figure, wearing a light green dress, which was quite eye-catching.
For some reason, Xie Junyao wanted to see her as soon as possible, "Go faster."
Getting closer and closer to Wuyou Palace, from a tiny point at first, I could now see the expression on her face clearly.
Wen Wanyu bowed: "This concubine pays respects to the emperor."
Xie Junyao got off the dragon chariot, personally helped her up, and held her soft hand. At this moment, he felt satisfied? Xie Junyao didn't know why.
The light aqua dress she wore today made her look particularly fresh and charming.
The bun is decorated with magnolia flowers of the same color.
It would look better if she changed it to a tassel hairpin. This was Xie Junyao's first thought.
"My dear, it's very beautiful."
Wen Wanyu's mouth twitched, and then she put on a happy smile: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
It's no wonder Wen Wanyu's mouth twitched. It's been a while since we last met, and the first time he said, "My beloved concubine is so beautiful," it was strange, so strange.
Xie Junyao did not see through her feigned joy.
Instead, he was in a good mood and took her hand and walked in.
Although this was not the first time Xie Junyao stepped into Chang Lixuan, he was physically and mentally exhausted the last time he came and was unable to take a good look around.
This time, I had plenty of time and was in a good mood, so I took Wen Wanyu to visit Chang Lixuan.
Wen Wanyu followed behind him.
"Introduce" him to the environment and objects from time to time.
After walking around inside and out, Xie Junyao was finally satisfied.
Wen Wanyu was exhausted. Not only did she have to "introduce" the place to him, but she also had to maintain plenty of energy to accompany him around the place.
Xie Junyao looked up at the inner hall for a long time. After taking a sip of tea, he said, "My beloved concubine's Changlixuan is very elegant."
Moreover, it is very warm.
Wen Wanyu replied perfunctorily with the same words: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."
It was obvious that she loved flowers. On the desk and the kang table, there were bouquets of brightly colored and neatly trimmed flowers. Seeing them would make people feel relaxed and happy.
"The flowers are nicely cut too."
Wen Wanyu followed his gaze and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, why did you keep praising me when you came to Changlixuan today?"
Xie Junyao raised his eyebrows: "Is it not good enough to praise you?"
"Okay." Wen Wanyu supported her head with both hands and looked at him: "I like to hear it."
Xie Junyao waved at her. Wen Wanyu thought for two seconds and sat next to him.
"Last time, why did you leave me alone on the small soft couch?"
“…” Wen Wanyu was silent for two seconds.
"I didn't intend to leave the emperor hanging."
"Oh?" Xie Junyao teased, "I see you're sleeping soundly in bed."
Wen Wanyu couldn't think of a reasonable reason.
"I was wrong."
Her voice was soft, as if she was begging him not to blame her.
Xie Junyao just wanted to tease her.
I stared at her lips. I was curious when I first saw her. Her lips were rosy. Did she wear lipstick?
"Do you wear lipstick?" He was curious, also because he didn't like lipstick.
Wen Wanyu shook her head, but afraid that he wouldn't believe her, she wiped her lips vigorously with the back of her hand, "I don't like lipstick."
As soon as the words were spoken, the breath overwhelmed the senses.
Suddenly, he pushed her chin down, opened her teeth with the tip of his tongue, and pushed in hard, biting and twisting.
He wasn't a very good kisser, a novice who loved to play. Wen Wanyu had been bitten so many times that the tip of her tongue was numb. He wasn't very skilled, but he was very domineering.
He moved his hand back and pressed the back of her head, leaving her no room to retreat.
Xie Junyao watched her earlobe gradually become swollen and turn pink.
Wen Wanyu's face was flushed, his mind was a little confused, and the wet feeling on his lips still lingered.
Subconsciously, she clutched his clothes tightly and leaned on his shoulder.
She said tentatively, "Your Majesty's bite really hurts me."
"Practice makes perfect. I won't do it again next time."
