Chapter 157 Pear Blossom Bellyband
"Have you touched enough?" Yan Shixu asked her.
Wen Li'er's face flushed and she quickly let go.
"I'm glad your Majesty is alright."
"I have something to do." Yan Shixu said seriously.
Wen Li'er asked him cautiously, "Your Majesty, what's the matter? Nothing..."
Yan Shixu grabbed her hand and put it back to the place where she had touched him.
"Maybe he's injured, can you help me take a look?"
Wen Li'er was skeptical, but she suppressed her shyness and helped him check.
Since you want to see, you naturally have to take off the covering clothes first.
When she saw the lively Dongdong, Wen Li'er breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at the man in front of her angrily.
"Your Majesty, it's all right!"
Yan Shixu felt even hotter all over because of her stare. He held her tightly and refused to let go, asking her to continue the examination.
"Just because you see it with your own eyes doesn't mean it's true. You have to try it to know."
Wen Li'er's head was smoking, and she reminded him, "Your Majesty, this is the imperial study!"
She hurried to put it on him.
But before she knew it, the world was spinning around her and she was already pressed down on the dragon table.
Yan Shixu slowly unbuttoned her skirt.
"You were the one who injured it. You are responsible for this."
A professional at putting the blame on others!
Wen Lier pushed him.
But her strength was no match for his.
After a while, the skirt bloomed to the ground like petals, revealing the pear blossom-patterned bellyband underneath.
Yan Shixu's gaze was fixed on it, his breathing stagnated, and his eyes instantly became as dark as the deep sea.
"Did you wear it specially for me to see?"
Wen Li'er shivered from the heat of his breath.
She bit her lip and tried to refute.
"No, the maid just happened to give it to me when I was bathing. I didn't wear it on purpose!"
"Really?"
Yan Sixu said quietly, "I remember that I had already torn off your pear blossom bellyband. Is this the new one?"
A happy smile appeared on his lips, and he seemed very satisfied with her outfit today.
Wen Lier beat herself up in her heart.
Woo...what are you wearing this for!
When Wen Li'er first entered the palace, she wore several pear blossom bellybands.
It was embroidered by her mother.
A'niang's embroidery skills are better than hers, and each pear blossom is embroidered vividly.
But every time His Majesty sees it, he is extremely excited.
She is not allowed to take it off every time, she has to tear it off directly!
Your Majesty must have some quirk!
Yan Shixu looked at the little woman under him, leaned over and bit her lips.
"I like it very much."
With that, a new round of tearing began.
Wen Lier: "..."
——
(Ahahahahahahaha, this plot is really too sad, my dears, just imagine it yourselves~~~~~~)
In the imperial study, candlelight cast two overlapping figures on the wall.
The gilded palace lanterns swayed gently in the night wind, making the vermilion palace walls flicker.
The moonlight was like frost, sprinkling on the glazed tiles, giving the towering palace a layer of cold silver glow.
The corner tower in the distance was hidden in the night, leaving only the occasional crisp sound of the copper bells on the eaves, which was particularly clear in the silent night.
The sound of the night watchman came from afar, reminding people that the night was deep, but the two people who met each other completely forgot the passage of time.
Finally, Wen Li'er thought, the next time she wears a pear flower bellyband, she will be a puppy...
Fortunately, this was the imperial study after all, and Yan Shixu did not make too much noise.
Wen Li'er didn't fall asleep in the end.
She leaned softly in his arms and said weakly, "Your Majesty is going too far."
Yan Shixu chuckled: "Li'er doesn't like it?"
Wen Li'er bit him with a red face.
Yan Shixu threatened: "If you make trouble again, I will make sure you can't get off the ground."
Wen Li'er became obedient instantly, rubbing against his chest like a kitten.
Yan Shixu's heart softened immediately. He rubbed her face and asked, "What did you talk about with your family today?"
When talking about family, Wen Lier became excited.
She said, "Let's talk about what happened in the past three years, at home and at my grandparents' house, and my brother's marriage."
Yan Shixu became interested.
"Which families has your brother visited?"
Wen Li'er counted on her fingers, one family at a time.
"The daughters of several families, including the Vice Minister of Rites, Vice Minister of War, Minister of Rites, Chief Justice, and Senior Cavalry Commandant."
Yan Shixu raised an eyebrow: "There are so many, are there any more?"
"There are a few more, but I don't remember them all."
Yan Shixu: "You just became a concubine, and your brother has become a hot commodity?"
"No way!" Wen Li'er's face was full of pride.
"My brother is a handsome, gentle, and elegant man, with a distinguished appearance. He is also well-educated and learned, and even at a young age, he passed the imperial examination and became the third place in the imperial examination. That's why so many families want to marry their daughters to him!"
Yan Shixu snorted and laughed: "You are not modest at all. If I had not been born into an imperial family, I might have been able to pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar."
Wen Lier: "..."
Your Majesty, you are not humble at all.
Yan Shixu asked again, "Since your brother has seen so many women, why hasn't he married yet? Doesn't he like those girls?"
"That's not the case."
Wen Li'er explained to him, "Brother has a girl he likes, so he hasn't really looked at other girls."
"Then why don't you send someone to the girl's house to propose marriage?"
Wen Lier felt tired when she talked about this.
"My brother has no idea who that girl belongs to!"
Yan Shixu was a little surprised when he heard this.
"We passed each other and fell in love at first sight?"
Wen Li'er shook her head: "It was a hero saving a beautiful woman, so it lingered in my mind."
She was about to tell him the story of her brother's heroic rescue of the damsel in distress when she heard Yongtai's anxious voice outside.
"Your Majesty, something happened to Prince Liang!"
Yan Shixu hurriedly put Wen Li'er down.
The two of them hurriedly tidied their clothes and opened the door of the imperial study.
"What happened?"
"Your Majesty, a maidservant from Mingchang Palace is kneeling outside, begging to see Your Majesty. She says...she says Prince Liang has had a high fever for three days and is dying!"
Yan Shixu's expression suddenly turned ugly, and he hurried towards Mingchang Palace holding Wen Li'er's hand.
"Quickly call the imperial physician!"
He had just sent his third brother out of Beijing with the Langzhong of the Water Ministry to inspect the canal for less than half a month when his fourth brother got into trouble.
When his third brother returns to Beijing, how will he explain this to everyone?
Inside Mingchang Palace.
When the eunuch guarding the palace gate saw the emperor coming, he suddenly knelt on the ground and saluted loudly, stammering.
"Your servant...your servant pays homage to His Majesty!"
Yan Shixu frowned and glanced at the eunuch.
But he was really worried about Yan Shiliang's condition, so he didn't bother to think about the abnormality of the eunuch and strode in.
Wen Li'er, on the other hand, glanced at the eunuch's nervous face, as if thinking about something.
Not long after they walked inside, Prince Liang's wet nurse, Yu, came out with all the people in the palace to greet them, and they respectfully saluted the emperor and the imperial concubine.
"Your servant/your servant pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Imperial Concubine."
"Stand up."
Yan Shixu threw down two words, then passed by a group of palace maids and continued walking towards Yan Shiliang's bedroom.
Yu hurriedly stood up and followed everyone else.
