Murong Ling explained to her in a serious tone, "Such intimacy is more effective for my headaches."
Luo Chaoxi: "...Your Majesty, do I look only three years old?"
Murong Ling coughed lightly, knowing that his statement was far-fetched, but, "What I said is true. I don't know why, but the closer I am to you, the more comfortable I feel. If I could be closer to you, I wouldn't feel a headache even if we were separated for a short time tomorrow."
"Perhaps you are the medicine that Heaven has sent to me. If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Luo Chaoxi asked in confusion, "Try what?"
"Let's try to see how long the effect lasts if we get closer, and see if my headache will relapse tomorrow," Murong Ling said in a low voice.
As he spoke, he moved closer, his breath almost mingling with hers, his long, narrow phoenix eyes gleaming brightly in the night.
Seeing that she seemed dazed and hadn't reacted, the man pressed one hand against the back of her head and forcefully kissed her.
Almost the instant their lips touched, the kiss became as hot as fire.
Luo Chaoxi's eyes slowly widened. When she came to her senses, she instinctively stepped back, but Murong Ling was prepared and wouldn't let her escape.
A large hand firmly restrained her waist, rendering her unable to move. Her teeth were forcefully pried open to welcome the intruder.
"Um... Your Majesty..."
Luo Chaoxi could no longer utter a complete sentence; she could clearly sense that Murong Ling was experiencing immense joy.
Finally, Luo Chaoxi was so breathless from the kisses that she gently bit him.
Unexpectedly, this action only made Murong Ling pause for a moment, and then he became even more frantic.
He didn't stop until Luo Chaoxi's mind was completely muddled.
One of the men, who had taken advantage of the situation, said excitedly, "I remember the last time I kissed you like this, you bit me hard and drew blood. Today you only bit me lightly, does that mean you're not as averse to me as before?"
"Huh?" Luo Chaoxi was stunned by the kiss and didn't hear what he was saying at all. Her eyes, glistening with tears, revealed her confusion.
Murong Ling found her expression cute and alluring, and couldn't help but lower his head to kiss her swollen, moist lips and dreamy eyes again.
When she came to her senses, remembering how she had been kissed so passionately, Luo Chaoxi's face flushed, and she buried her head in the pillow, making muffled sounds from underneath.
"His Majesty just wants to act like a rogue, and he even uses a headache as an excuse. You, you..."
Luo Chaoxi talked for a long time, but couldn't come up with any harsh words.
Murong Ling pulled her out from under the pillow to prevent her from suffocating. "At first, I just wanted to prove that being intimate with you really works. I didn't expect that as soon as I touched you, I would want to be even closer to you. And you responded. I just couldn't stop."
Luo Chaoxi's face turned even redder, whether from being sullen or embarrassed by his words, it was hard to tell.
She realized that Murong Ling was a reckless person who dared to say anything.
"When did I respond to you?!"
Murong Ling said matter-of-factly, "You bit me just now, it didn't hurt or itch, it just felt tingly and numb, wasn't that your way of responding to me?"
Luo Chaoxi's chest heaved with anger. Was this supposed to be a response?
She argued angrily with him, "That doesn't count!"
"Then how do I determine that? I don't know, why don't you teach me?"
Murong Ling had only meant to tease her, but she actually dared to come closer. As their lips met, a wet, warm sensation swept across his lips, fleeting in an instant, before slipping away like an eel.
Murong Ling's expression changed. How could he possibly let go of such a delicious treat? He grabbed the man and kissed him back fiercely.
Amidst their intertwined breaths, a fair hand descended, landing on the man's lower abdomen, even tending to move further down, before being stopped by the panting man's large hand, which barely stopped at his abdomen.
Murong Ling was clearly startled by her actions, and he was stunned for a few moments. Then his breathing became heavier, and his eyes even turned bloodshot.
Murong Ling felt incredibly hot all over; the places she touched felt like they were on fire, the fire burning down his lower abdomen.
"My darling, don't do this." His voice was extremely hoarse.
"I know you just want my body. Actually, when we made the deal at the temple, I guessed this day would come. If Your Majesty really wants me, I won't refuse. I just hope you can have a little pity on me," Luo Chaoxi said pitifully, looking at him softly.
Murong Ling, "..." Now he was speechless.
He did desire her body, but he didn't intend to take her tonight.
No one could know how much her last words impacted him; Murong Ling felt like he was about to burst with pent-up emotions.
He kissed Luo Chaoxi's lips. "I may not be a good person, but I'm not a beast either. I'll take you when you're willing."
“But you…” Luo Chaoxi glanced at the spot where he had set up the tent.
"I'm fine. This is a normal reaction for a man. I'm not a lustful person," Murong Ling assured her.
However, not long after, someone was about to be proven wrong.
"Sleep now." Murong Ling held the person in his arms and closed his eyes.
Luo Chaoxi lay obediently in his arms and told him one last thing, "Your Majesty, I've made up my mind. I will stay in the palace."
Murong Ling's eyes snapped open again. "Really?"
"If I don't want to stay in the palace, will the Emperor let me leave?" Luo Chaoxi yawned and asked lazily.
Murong Ling: "...No, if you dare to run away, I will catch you and lock you in my bedchamber."
That solves it. Whether she leaves or not is not her choice at all. Rather than being forced to stay in the palace and making everyone unhappy, it's better to stay voluntarily.
"We've already been intimate so many times, do I have any other choice but to be with you?" Luo Chaoxi muttered.
Murong Ling was overjoyed and couldn't sleep after hearing her words. He rambled on and on, saying sweet nothings like "darling" and "baby." But he didn't hear a response. Looking down, he found that she had already fallen asleep.
Murong Ling chuckled. After Luo Chaoxi fell asleep, he was still wide awake. He finally got up, took a cold shower, and lay back down on the bed, feeling chilled.
The next day, when Murong Ling went to court, he announced a major event: he was going to establish an empress, and he ordered the Imperial Observatory to calculate an auspicious date and the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the wedding.
Secondly, he granted the Prince of Jin a fiefdom, allowing the Prince to return to his fiefdom after attending his wedding.
The Prince of Jin listened to the unfamiliar place, the place called Jizhou, and thought about it several times before he remembered. If he remembered correctly, that place was often arid and often needed to be aided by other places, which is why it was named Jizhou.
Haha, it's just a poor, backwater place.
Prince Jin's face instantly turned bitter. He knew it; once his elder brother found out he had once coveted Luo Chaoxi, he wouldn't let him off easily! Now, it was no different from being exiled to the frontier.
In addition, Murong Ling also sent his shadow guards to investigate Han Lianjing, including his every move in the army.
