Yue Lingyin lightly jumped onto the treetop and sat down leisurely waiting. Not long after, Feng Mian hurried back with an exquisite food box in his hand.
Yue Lingyin jumped down from the tree, her skirt flying like a blooming flower.
Feng Mian's heart moved, he looked away and handed the food box to her.
"There's actually lotus leaf chicken!" Yue Lingyin's eyes curved into crescents. "That's great! I haven't eaten chicken in a long time."
Feng Mian heard that even though she hadn't eaten meat for a long time, she felt even more pity for her. His Majesty was really something. Why would he withhold food from a little girl?
He wanted to stay a little longer and watch the little girl eat, but his responsibilities kept reminding him that he could not linger any longer.
So, he took a deep breath and bowed to Lingyin: "I have something important to attend to, so I will take my leave first."
Yue Lingyin nodded, her face full of gratitude: "Go ahead, go ahead. Thank you so much for today."
"I dare not."
Feng Mian returned to the imperial kitchen to guard it. With nothing to do, he began to think about what had just happened. His Majesty only asked them to guard here and did not say what his intention was. Could it be that he did not want the Queen Mother to come to eat?
It shouldn’t be that case... There are so many people in the palace, Your Majesty won’t save a single cent.
After thinking about it, it must be that the Queen Mother did something that made His Majesty dislike her and wanted to teach her a lesson, but now that he has helped her, will His Majesty be dissatisfied with him?
Feng Mian waited anxiously for a whole day, but the emperor did not blame him, and he finally felt relieved.
In the evening, Yue Lingyin planned to take a bath before leaving the Chen Mansion.
It was too troublesome to fetch water from the well and boil it herself, so she decided to get some water from the emperor's bathing pool. As long as she was quick enough, no one would notice.
The emperor knew how to enjoy himself. There was a spring in the imperial pool, and the water gushing out was warm. Yue Lingyin heard people talk about it when she was walking around in the palace. It seemed to be Qingquan Palace.
It’s just one word away from being called Qinghan Palace. Yue Lingyin thought, it’s her turn as someone from Qinghan Palace to go over and get some food.
Yue Lingyin took her underwear and sneaked into Qingquan Palace. The palace was decorated with curtains all around, and the ground was paved with beautiful jade and stones. The pool water was replaced by carefully designed upper and lower pipes, and cold water could be introduced through valves to adjust the temperature.
She took off her clothes and jumped into the imperial pond. When she was enjoying herself, she heard footsteps at the door. Her body stiffened, and she wrapped her clothes around herself and hid behind the heavy curtains.
The emperor, dressed in plain clothes, entered Qingquan Palace with Eunuch Cao. Seeing the water on the floor, he paused and his sharp eyes like an eagle shot straight behind the curtain.
Eunuch Cao was confused: "Your Majesty..."
"You go out first." The emperor curled his lips into a cruel sneer. After Eunuch Cao went out, his figure flashed past like a ghost. While Yue Lingyin was looking terrified, he slapped her shoulder with one palm.
Yue Lingyin dodged nimbly and tried to escape by using her lightness skills while pointing her toes, but her white and tender feet were caught and the emperor pulled them down hard. She screamed and fell uncontrollably to the ground, making her already messy clothes even more messy.
The emperor's palm wind slashed towards her head fiercely. Yue Lingyin closed her eyes in fear, her long eyelashes trembled, her red lips slightly parted, and her delicate little face was as pale as snow.
She thought desperately that in her new life, she would live even shorter than in her previous life.
The expected pain did not come. Yue Lingyin opened her eyes cautiously. The emperor looked down at her condescendingly, his handsome face with an unfathomable expression.
The girl in front of me was wearing thin clothes, revealing a large area of snow-white and delicate skin. Her silky hair was slightly damp and draped at her side. Her round and slender shoulders were exposed, and her long lotus legs and... were looming. Under the illumination of the night pearl, she looked like an alluring fairy in the night.
The emperor suddenly asked, "Which palace are you from?"
Yue Lingyin nervously straightened her clothes that had slipped off her body, then stood up awkwardly to explain, "Actually, I'm the Queen Mother. There's no hot water in the palace, so I came here to take a bath... I don't mean any other harm."
The emperor's gaze fell on her overly beautiful face. A faint light flashed in his eyes. He leaned down, his eyes full of aggression: "Do you think I will believe you?"
"Really." Yue Lingyin felt an invisible pressure, nervously gathered her clothes, took a step back and explained, "I've always lived in Qinghan Palace..."
"Come here." The emperor didn't want to listen and suddenly stretched out his hand to her.
"Huh?" Yue Lingyin was surprised. "What...what are you doing?"
The emperor pulled her in his arms with his big hands and locked her in his arms. He couldn't control the restlessness in his heart. Now he was the most powerful man in Dongli and was not going to let himself be wronged.
He gently stroked her back with his right hand, his eyes dark and deep: "You are coming to serve me tonight, do you know how to serve me?"
Yue Lingyin asked in a daze, "What does 'serving the emperor in bed' mean?"
Please forgive her, a girl from the mountains who has never received sex education. Not to mention the word "serving the emperor in bed", which is only used for emperors, she would not even know it even if it was replaced with a vulgar and easy-to-understand word.
The emperor saw that her beautiful glass eyes were full of confusion, and her narrow and long phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, appearing unfathomable.
"Do you want me to let you go?"
Yue Lingyin's eyes sparkled beneath her long feathery eyelashes. She parted her red lips and said, "I do."
The emperor looked at her bright red lips, his Adam's apple rolling twice: "Kiss me."
"Ah?" Yue Lingyin's eyes kept wandering because of panic, but the emperor found her very attractive. He pinched her chin and kissed that soft spot hard.
Their lips and teeth were intertwined. Yue Lingyin opened her eyes wide and struggled, but was held even tighter.
As the emperor immersed himself in her, a strange feeling surged from deep within her body, and her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
The emperor picked her up horizontally and placed her on the bed in the main hall, then gently pulled her with his bony hands...
[The car whirred by, and was kicked away by the auditor~]
Yue Lingyin tried to escape several times but was pulled back every time.
"Goodbye, I know I was wrong, let me go, I will never come to your hot spring again... wuwu..."
The emperor kept moving: "It's too late."
Shen Qingchen waited in the study all night but Yue Lingyin didn't show up. Worried, he called the guards in the mansion over and asked, "Is anyone coming tonight? Or have they caught anyone?"
"Replying to the Prime Minister, no."
Shen Qingchen waved his hand to let him go, unable to read the official documents in his hand.
She is so stupid, will she be caught by others?
He wanted to find her, but he didn't even know her name.
Shen Qingchen called his subordinates over and asked, "How is the investigation going?"
"It hasn't been fully investigated yet, but the last place she disappeared was at the foot of Wansui Mountain."
Next to Wansui Mountain is the imperial palace. Shen Qingchen wondered, could she be a member of the palace?
"Find someone to guard Wansui Mountain and report back as soon as there's any news."
"yes."
Shen Qingchen sat in the study all night and went to court before dawn the next day. After waiting for a long time, the emperor still did not come to court.
The entire court was buzzing with discussion, and finally the emperor finally arrived.
