Although he was smiling, the entire hall seemed to be shrouded in a gloomy and cold atmosphere.
Xie Shizhu raised his hand to touch the hairpin and nodded stiffly: "Yes."
Hearing this, Yan Chou suppressed his smile and grabbed her wrist with the hand on her neck.
Xie Shizhu was slightly startled and instinctively wanted to avoid him. As soon as she stood up, Yan Chou pressed her down on the chair.
A force suppressed her, making her unable to move.
Yan Chou glared at her and lowered his head to move closer. Just as his thin lips touched Xie Shizhu's lips, she turned her face away.
But Yan Chou was not annoyed. Instead, he suddenly smiled, his narrow eyes darkening. "Why are you hiding?"
Xie Shizhu knew that he had seen everything and was intentionally torturing him, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Chou, what on earth do you want to do?"
Yan Chou released her wrist, and his bony hands tightly clasped her thin shoulders. "Why didn't I see you avoid the Regent's touch? Tell me, where else did he touch you besides your shoulders?"
Xie Shizhu: “…” What a psychopath.
"No, I just accidentally fell off the horse," Xie Shizhu said, "The Regent just saved me."
As she was about to finish her words, Xie Shizhu's body suddenly flew into the air. Yan Chou barely gave her a chance to react as he picked her up horizontally and walked towards the dragon bed.
In a moment, Xie Shizhu was placed on the soft bedding. Before she could catch her breath, Yan Chou's body fell on her, pressing her so hard that she couldn't breathe.
Yan Chou stared at her with his dark eyes, his cool lips nuzzling against her ear. "Oh? Really? Could it be that the arrow shot at Lin Xuan in the enclosure today was also a careless act by the Queen?"
Hearing this, Xie Shizhu was slightly startled, with surprise in his pupils.
The system was even more shocked than Xie Shizhu, the person involved. It screamed in her mind: [Host, he found out you did this on purpose? What should I do?]
Xie Shizhu stretched out a hand and placed it on Yan Chou's chest. Through the thin silk fabric, she could feel the scorching heat of Yan Chou's body temperature. She took a deep breath and replied, "Yes, I did it on purpose. That day in the Regent's Mansion, she tricked me into going to the backyard, which ultimately led to you getting hurt..."
Yan Chou's pupils shrank, his eyes were filled with disbelief, and then all the anger in his body suddenly disappeared.
The system directly called the host 666, and this sentence made Yan Chou change his attitude.
Then, he heard the woman's voice enter his ears: "But, you know I have intentions, so why are you helping me?"
As Yan Chou untied her nightgown, he said, "I'm helping you because you are my queen."
In fact, Yan Chou was somewhat happy.
Unexpectedly, Xie Shizhu, who had never had the heart to kill even an animal, decisively pulled the target because he was injured.
This kind of joy was even greater than when he forced Xie Shizhu to marry him when he ascended the throne.
Xie Shizhu was naked. In the dim candlelight in the hall, her whole body was covered with a light layer of pink, and some traces of the last pleasure still remained on her skin.
She hurriedly grabbed a corner of the quilt to cover herself, and a few strands of her black hair brushed across Yan Chou's neck.
Slightly itchy.
Yan Chou's eyes were filled with lust. He stared into her eyes and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Queen, give birth to a child for me."
Xie Shizhu was stunned, his face full of surprise.
Seeing her somewhat reluctant expression, Yan Chou's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but utter some threatening words: "Don't forget, Prince Cangyue is still in prison."
Xie Shizhu was silent for a long time, until the candlelight in the room burned out, and then she responded to Yan Chou: "Let's leave this matter to fate."
Hearing this, Yan Chou's sinister eyes were filled with a smile. He stared into her phoenix eyes, and the color in his eyes became darker and darker, and his breathing became heavier.
He lifted the quilt and let his big hands wander over Xie Shizhu's skin.
Wherever his fingers passed, Xie Shizhu's skin trembled slightly.
Yan Chou's voice was so pleasant that it captivated people: "Okay, I'll leave it to fate."
The system escaped. It was quite sensible in such indecent situations.
When I came back, it was already dawn.
Yan Chou put on a brocade robe, looked back at Xie Shizhu, tied the robe belt, and his tall figure left Jin'an Hall.
When attending court, the ministers found that Yan Chou seemed to be in a good mood and was able to listen to their speeches calmly.
After the court was dismissed, Fu Yun stood behind Yan Chou and saw that the emperor's steps were a little faster than before, and there was a faint smile on his lips. He was completely different from the expressionless and moody tyrant in the past.
Fuyun thought, has he finally gotten something sweet from the Queen?

In the prison.
Xie Shizhu appeared in front of Xie Xinglan's cell with anxious steps.
The injuries on Xie Xinglan's face had recovered a lot, but even though the gauze had been removed, his appearance was so ruined that his facial features could not be seen clearly. Only his eyes were still normal.
Xie Shizhu was wearing a lavender gauze dress, her oval face was fair and delicate, and her almond-shaped eyes were particularly moved when she saw Xie Xinglan.
"elder brother."
Xie Xinglan quickly got up from the couch, reached out his hand through the gap in the fence, and tightly grasped her wrist. He said excitedly: "Sister, seeing that you are living well here, I am relieved."
Xie Shizhu twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "How is brother's health these days?"
Xie Xinglan: "Very good, you don't have to worry."
Then, footsteps sounded from behind, and slender fingers took Xie Xinglan's hand away, and then quickly threw it away.
Xie Xinglan was stunned, a shadow loomed in front of his eyes. He raised his eyes and saw Yan Chou's bright yellow figure, his angular jawline was taut, and his dark eyes looked down at him.
Xie Shizhu tilted his head slightly, and was not surprised to see Yan Chou. Instead, he asked calmly, "Why are you here?"
Yan Chou hooked his hand around her waist with a familiar touch, and whispered softly, "I've come to see how the Queen's brother is doing in prison."
Hearing this, Xie Xinglan gritted his teeth and said, "The fact that I'm in jail and disfigured is all because of you. I don't need your fake kindness."
As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced at him coldly. Xie Xinglan stared at Yan Chou without any fear at all.
Yan Chou didn't get angry. He sneered and whispered in Xie Shizhu's ear, "As expected of a relative of the Queen, your personality is very similar. When I first met you in the palace, you were also so stubborn. You're truly a newborn calf that's not afraid of a tiger."
Xie Shizhu lowered his eyes, somewhat understanding the implication of Yan Chou's words.
But this unwillingness to give in was reduced to nothing in Yan Chou's hands.
Xie Shizhu smiled lightly and looked up at Xie Xinglan, "Brother, the emperor is doing this for your own good. If he hadn't done this, we would have been executed long ago."
Xie Xinglan was shocked. When did Xie Shizhu stand next to someone else?
Yan Chou squinted at Xie Xinglan's expression, his lips curled slightly, and his eyebrows raised: "Prince Cangyue, your sister is more sensible than you. From now on, just stay in prison with peace of mind."
After saying this, Yan Chou walked outside with his arms around Xie Shizhu. Suddenly, he stopped, reached out and lifted Xie Shizhu's chin, and pressed his thin lips against hers, from shallow to deep, as if he wanted to pull her into the abyss.
Finally, when Xie Shizhu's face turned red, he let her go.
