An emperor of a generation would grovel so humbly to please a woman. Even among wealthy and powerful men today, few would do that. It must be said that the original owner of this body was fortunate in love.
What Huang Taiji didn't know was that the more he did this, the more he would push Hailanzhu into the abyss.
The human heart is unfathomable, especially the women in the imperial harem, who are even more unfathomable.
Suddenly, Huang Taiji gently lifted Hailanzhu's chin, about to press his lips to her small mouth.
Upon seeing this, Hailanzhu was startled and quickly dodged away, thus preserving her first kiss.
"What's wrong?" Huang Taiji was not displeased by Hailanzhu's refusal.
Helpless, Hailanzhu blushed and said, "But there are other people watching!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Taiji turned to Hui Ge with a gloomy expression and said, "Foolish, what are you standing there for? Get down here now." His tone was completely different from when he spoke to Hailanzhu.
It's no wonder Huang Taiji reacted this way. Anyone would be unhappy if they wanted to be intimate with their loved one, especially when there were other people around, and those people were staring at them.
Hui Ge trembled and quickly bowed her head, replying, "This servant... obeys!"
After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry, leaving only Hailanzhu and Huang Taiji behind.
Hui Ge was not a good person, but Hailanzhu still did not want her to leave, because that would force her to have intimate relations with Huang Taiji.
She was very anxious. In the past, she would always pass the message on to unmarried women, and then she could walk away once the mission was complete. But this time, she had to…
At this moment, even though Hailanzhu's body was still intact, being intimate with Huang Taiji wouldn't affect her original self. But this was something she had to go through, and with someone she didn't love. How could she bear it?
For a moment, she lowered her head, not knowing what to do, and gripped her brocade robe tightly with her small hands, not wanting to show any abnormality.
Seeing this, Huang Taiji thought she was shy, so he teased her, "Lan'er and I have been husband and wife for two years, why are you still acting like a newlywed?"
Upon hearing this, Hailanzhu became even more embarrassed, but her reaction only fueled Huang Taiji's lust.
Just as Huang Taiji was about to kiss her again, she instinctively uttered, "System, save me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to float in mid-air as if her soul had left her body. At this moment, Huang Taiji removed the original owner's clothes and carried her into the palace.
"It seems the mission has failed!" she thought bitterly, feeling extremely distressed, but she didn't regret it.
"Who said the mission failed?" The system's voice rang in her ears.
Upon hearing the system's voice, she was startled at first, but then she realized what it meant and was secretly delighted. She couldn't help but ask, "Does that mean the mission is still in progress?"
"Exactly," the system replied.
She exclaimed with delight, "I can leave for a while! Why didn't you say so sooner?"
"First, you didn't ask me, and second, leaving temporarily also comes at a price."
"What price?" She was clearly no longer as happy as before.
"One thousand yuan will be deducted for every minute, and the maximum duration is six hours, otherwise the task will be abandoned."
Her heart tightened. One thousand per minute, that would amount to 120,000 in one hour (two hours). But what could she do? As the one carrying out the order, she could only grit her teeth and accept it.
She thought it would only take a few minutes to finish, but she underestimated Huang Taiji. It took her a full half hour to finish.
"That took away 60,000 of my money!!!" she wailed.
As the second hand was about to reach twelve o'clock, she returned to Hailanzhu's body at lightning speed, muttering, "I almost lost another thousand yuan."
But then an unprecedented feeling of exhaustion washed over her, as if it were going to drain her dry. She cursed inwardly: Knowing that Hailanzhu was delicate, she still used so much force. She really didn't know how to cherish a woman.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glare at Huang Taiji with displeasure.
Huang Taiji, however, said with a smirk, "Lan'er, do you still want to..."
"No..." she cried out in alarm, waving her hands frantically. "I'm exhausted!"
"Since you are exhausted, just lie down and rest. I will go and deal with the memorials. I will wake you up for dinner later."
Upon hearing this, Hailanzhu was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.
Seeing that Hailanzhu agreed, he stood up and walked towards the door, leaving her with his back to him.
"Phew—" Hailanzhu breathed a long sigh of relief.
Just when I thought I could have a moment of peace, I heard a knock on the door.
"Who?" she asked weakly.
"Your Majesty, it was this servant."
Hearing the voice, Hailanzhu knew it was Hui Ge, who had ill intentions. She wanted to ask her to wait at the door and come in later, but then she remembered something.
So she quickly called out, "Come in."
"Yes," Hui-ge replied, pushing the door open and entering.
She smiled broadly and said, "Your Majesty is tired. Let me help you with your washing and dressing."
Hailanzhu glanced at Huige and then nodded.
She understood that Hui-ge was so eager because he wanted a reward for what happened at noon.
After she finished dressing up, she chose something she considered worthless as a reward for Hui-ge.
"This..." When Hui-ge saw the reward, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
It turns out that what Hailanzhu was giving as a gift was a pair of blue glass earrings, which would cost around thirty yuan on Taobao, but four hundred years ago, they were priceless.
"I miscalculated." Hailanzhu couldn't help but feel annoyed when she saw Huige's expression.
Seeing that Hailanzhu seemed to regret her decision, Huige quickly put the earrings on and said happily, "Thank you for the gift, Your Majesty."
Hailanzhu cursed under her breath: "Greedy lackey." Then she smiled and said, "It suits you quite well; it makes you look a bit more noble."
Hui Ge gently stroked her earring: "Your Majesty flatters me."
Seeing this, Hailanzhu didn't want to get entangled with Huige any longer, and simply said, "I have something to ask the Consort. Go and call her over!"
"Yes," Hui-ge replied cheerfully and quickly left.
Shortly after Hui Ge left, Hailanzhu, citing feeling unwell, ordered a eunuch to summon Huang Taiji.
