Bei Yutang boarded the emperor's sedan chair under the envious gazes of all the concubines.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"No need to be polite."
Nan Shaotian patted the seat beside him and motioned for her to sit over there.
Bei Yutang naturally didn't dare to disobey and happily got in. The imperial carriage was just like that, very spacious, and even if a few more people came, it wouldn't be cramped.
Nan Shaotian opened the food box on the coffee table and a fragrant aroma wafted out.
"You haven't eaten yet. Eat something first."
Bei Yutang glanced at the crystal clear steamed dumplings on the coffee table. They smelled delicious and looked great, but she had no appetite. She just wanted to eat everything and sleep.
"Your Majesty, can I not eat it?" Bei Yutang asked coquettishly.
Nan Shaotian didn't force it and closed the lunch box again. "Okay, eat whenever you're hungry."
Bei Yutang kept nodding her head and yawning with her hands covering her mouth from time to time.
"If you are sleepy, take a nap first. I will wake you up when we get there." Nan Shaotian said lovingly.
"Yeah." Bei Yutang nodded obediently.
As he spoke, he leaned against the side and fell asleep. The carriage swayed like a cradle. Bei Yutang thought he would not be able to sleep, but unexpectedly, he fell asleep quickly.
Nan Shaotian saw her swaying with the carriage, and she fell down without knowing when. Nan Shaotian leaned her head against his body and slept directly on his thigh.
He picked up a piece of cloth from the side and covered her with it.
In fact, when he touched Bei Yutang, she was awakened. However, she did not open her eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep, wanting to see what he was going to do.
Then, she felt herself leaning towards him, and his legs were used as a pillow for her.
Nan Shaotian instructed the people outside the car, "Drive more steadily."
"yes."
Through the tiny gap in the carriage curtain, Sandezi saw Concubine Chen sleeping in the emperor's arms.
Oh, this Concubine Chen is truly extraordinary.
What a pity! She was destined to have no chance of becoming queen, and perhaps even her life would be in jeopardy.
One is the country, the other is the beauty.
In the eyes of the emperor, it is self-evident what is more important.
Alas, it’s a pity for such a beauty. He only hopes that the emperor can see his heart clearly sooner and not do anything that will make him regret for the rest of his life.
After feeling that he had brought her to his side, Bei Yutang stopped moving and continued pretending to sleep until she actually fell asleep.
An hour later, Bei Yutang was awakened by Nan Shaotian.
"Eat something first. Once you're full, if you feel like sleeping, go ahead and sleep."
On the coffee table were two bowls of porridge, some bite-sized dumplings, and some side dishes. She had to admit, she was really hungry.
"good."
The two of them ate a simple meal. After finishing a bowl of porridge, Bei Yutang felt that his whole body became warm.
"Do you want to sleep?" Nan Shaotian asked.
Bei Yutang shook her head, "No. I want to see the scenery outside."
As she spoke, she had already opened the carriage curtain, revealing a vast expanse of lush green fields. Normally, farmers would have been working in the fields, but because of the emperor's trip, the entire area had been cleared.
The mountains in the distance and the houses and countryside nearby outline a beautiful landscape and pastoral painting.
Her hometown is also so beautiful, it's a pity that she can't see it now.
