The secret guard lowered his head and spoke nervously. Having followed Xu Jinyi for several months, he naturally knew that Xu Jinyi was the emperor's most beloved person.
As for the current situation outside, the secret guards felt that if the emperor knew about it, he would probably be furious.
"explain?"
"A few days ago, when Prince Lu got married and Miss Xu was in attendance, waves of people came to the General's Mansion to propose marriage. The threshold was almost broken down by people trampling on it, and each one of them wanted to marry Miss Xu."
"Today, the eldest son of the Minister of War, the youngest son of the Vice Minister of Revenue, the legitimate son of the General Zhenbei, the eldest son of the Duke of Qin, and so on, are all here..."
Before the secret guard could finish his words, the teacup in Di Zisheng's hand was smashed to the ground with a "bang".
The originally gentle brows suddenly became gloomy, and his tightly pursed thin lips showed that the emperor was in a unhappy mood at the moment.
His face was gloomier to the extreme, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. Irritation, jealousy, and anger surged in his heart.
Di Zisheng was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. How could he not be angry when the treasure he held in his hands was coveted by others?
The rage almost consumed him, his eyes bloodshot.
The secret guard was horrified. He had not seen the emperor like this in many years.
Time seemed to have gone back to the scene when the emperor stepped onto the throne by stepping on thousands of corpses.
Di Zisheng lowered his eyes to look at the secret guard and said coldly, "Go down and accept your punishment. In this situation, you should inform me immediately."
The secret guard did not dare to beg for mercy. He accepted his fate, thanked En and took the blame, then retreated.
The atmosphere in the Qinzheng Hall was extremely depressing. The two eunuchs standing behind Emperor Zisheng's dragon throne didn't dare to breathe. They just waved their fans very lightly for fear of making any sound.
Di Zisheng felt that even the air was stuffy and irritably unbuttoned a few buttons: "Haven't you eaten yet? Are you exhausted?"
The two eunuchs were shocked and fanned the room with greater force. Seeing the emperor staring at them with dissatisfaction, the two eunuchs were about to cry.
They hoped that the master would appear soon to save them.
Eunuch Deng did not disappoint them and appeared on a tray with an exquisite and graceful hairpin.
"Your Majesty, this is the hairpin you ordered to be crafted. Please take a look."
Eunuch Deng looked at his two apprentices, who were covered in cold sweat, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this hairpin is so beautiful and lively. I'm sure Miss Xu will be very happy to wear it. Your Majesty has been busy all day today. To take care of your health, you should rest."
Emperor Zisheng responded and asked Eunuch Deng to change him into a black robe, then took the hairpin and fled out of the palace.
Perhaps because he needed to be comforted too much, the moment Di Zisheng saw Xu Jinyi, he could no longer hold back and kissed her directly.
Over and over again, the kiss was long, rougher than usual, with a domineering and predatory edge.
Looking at her eyes becoming increasingly clear, Di Zisheng knew that he should leave and let her go back to sleep, letting her think that this was a dream.
But deep down, I was secretly hoping, what if the little girl knew that this was real and not a dream?
Would she be happy if she knew that the object of her erotic dream was madly obsessed with her and loved her?
Is she willing to enter the palace and become her own queen?
Thinking of what she said about dreaming that she entered the harem and became his favorite woman, Di Zisheng hesitated.
In the moment he hesitated, Xu Jinyi became fully awake. Looking at the handsome face so close to him, Xu Jinyi suddenly sat up and let out a soft cry.
But she was covered by Di Zisheng's big hand, and he held her in his arms and sat her on his lap.
Xu Jinyi's heart was beating wildly, and her almond-shaped eyes were staring wide-eyed at the person she loved.
How could she possibly forget this face? So...
Xu Jinyi was breathing rapidly, looking at the real emperor in front of him foolishly.
Knowing that she wouldn't scream, Di Zisheng let go of her hand.
Xu Jinyi foolishly touched his handsome face, took a deep breath and whispered, "Is it Your Majesty?"
Seeing that there was no fear in her eyes, Di Zisheng raised the corners of his mouth: "It's me. Have you forgotten that you meet me in your dreams every day?"
Di Zisheng immediately thought of a reason to find her. He planned to take the fact that he was once a puppy into the grave and never let anyone know.
Di Zisheng touched her pink cheek and said, "I finally found you. Do you know how long I have been looking for you?"
"In my dreams, I couldn't see your face clearly, so I had no idea where to look for you. Until recently, I finally saw your face clearly. I always thought you only existed in my dreams."
"If the eunuch hadn't seen my portrait and recognized you, I wouldn't have known you really existed."
"I can't believe that the fairy could jump out of my dream and is now in my arms. I can actually touch and caress her."
As he spoke, Di Zisheng stared at her with burning eyes: "I thought I would be alone for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect you to show up."
"Yier, come back to the palace with me and be my queen, my only queen, okay?"
If Xu Jinyi hadn't known that he was a dog and that he had behaved like a flower thief a few days ago, she would have been fooled by the story he made up.
Trying hard to suppress her laughter, she gasped in disbelief with her eyes wide open: "Is it because of me, your Majesty, that the harem is empty?"
Di Zisheng was pleased by her surprised look and rubbed her little head. "What else do you think? In the past few years, you have appeared in my dreams every day and have captured my heart and soul."
"You don't know how it feels to be unable to see your face. I miss you day and night. My heart is all for you. How can I have room for anyone else?"
"Now that I have finally found you, are you willing to follow me into the palace?"
Seeing her silence, Di Zisheng pursed his lips nervously.
Those eyes filled with deep affection seemed to startle Xu Jinyi. She was a little bewildered and said, "Your Majesty, how could I have deserved your concern? You even left the harem empty, neglecting the country and leaving no successor. I cannot bear this responsibility."
"Besides, I am now an abandoned woman. How can I enter the palace to serve Your Majesty? How can I be worthy of Your Majesty?"
Di Zisheng tapped her lips with his index finger: "Nonsense, you are the best woman in the world. The position of Queen belongs to you. If it's not you, I don't want anyone else."
Such words were too shocking to the world. Xu Jinyi jumped off his legs in shock and knelt on the ground in fear.
"Your Majesty, how can I, a mere abandoned woman, take the throne of Queen and allow you to be humiliated by the world and ruin your reputation?"
Di Zisheng's gaze became hot. From his position, Xu Jinyi's beautiful figure was fully captured in his sight, and his breathing became heavier.
Xu Jinyi realized belatedly that she was dressed inappropriately at the time. She actually met the emperor in only a small shirt and pants.
Xu Jinyi's face flushed red as if it was on fire. She didn't dare to get up rashly, let alone get up to cover herself with the quilt. She was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
