Force is a great advantage, and Qiao Zhen happens to have it.
The scenes in novels where women cry and whine after being slept with don't exist in Qiao Zhen's world.
On the other hand, Ye Shangzhou... well, let's not talk about him. He's a man with lustful desires and the guts, but no real ability to seduce women.
He was already dying before dawn.
Qiao Zhen: [Did I go a little too far with him? He's exhausted.]
Xiao Ling: [Maybe, but there's nothing we can do about it. Who can stop a virgin like you who's only recently lost her virginity?]
Qiao Zhen: [This isn't my fault. If my physical constitution were up to par, this fairy could cultivate together for at least two months without interruption.]
Xiao Ling: [Holy crap! That's ridiculous!]
Qiao Zhen: [Did you know? There's a secret dual cultivation ranking in the Heavenly Realm, and the person in first place has been there for a thousand years.]
Xiao Ling was stunned, even the data processing seemed to lag. [Aren't you...you guys gods?]
Qiao Zhen disagreed: "Even immortals have physical needs. Our main pursuit is mental tranquility. Besides, dual cultivation can accelerate the advancement of magical power. As long as it doesn't involve the 'evil' of good and evil, the two are not in conflict."
Xiao Ling: [I...I need to calm down first.]
It directly blocks Qiao Zhen.
Xiao Ling: [Waaaaah, this woman has absolutely no bottom line, what do I do now?]
Main system: This situation wasn't anticipated either. [Emmm…we'll figure something out for the next task.]
Xiao Ling: [Oh.]
Qiao Zhen didn't think too much about it. She propped her head up and looked at the exhausted Ye Shangzhou. There was no sign of fatigue on his face. Especially after sleeping, he felt refreshed and great.
When Xiao Xunzi called Ye Shangzhou to get up from outside, Qiao Zhen shushed her and said, "Go out first and prepare water and clothes. I will take care of His Majesty."
"yes."
After Qiao Zhen and the other palace maids had prepared everything and left, she got up, tidied herself up, and then resumed her old job of dressing and grooming Ye Shangzhou.
Ye Shangzhou was half asleep and accepted Qiao Zhen's actions naturally. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, looked at himself in the mirror, and saw Qiao Zhen behind him, who was concentrating on styling his hair.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Zhen turned her head to look at him.
Ye Shangzhou shook his head and grasped Qiao Zhen's hand, "I just feel that this scene looks somewhat familiar."
How could it not look familiar? Qiao Zhen and Qi Yijuan maintained this kind of relationship for decades in the previous world.
"Perhaps you've seen her somewhere before," Qiao Zhen said with a warm smile, her eyes and brows sparkling with laughter.
Ye Shangzhou tightened his grip on Qiao Zhen's hand. "Smile more in the future, it looks good." He seemed to have thought of something. "Don't smile like that in front of others."
No matter how many worlds he experiences, the domineering nature in his bones can never be extinguished.
Qiao Zhen readily agreed, "Okay."
During the morning court session, Ye Shangzhou was still drowsy, so Qiao Zhen knelt down beside him and nudged him from time to time with her hand hidden under her sleeve.
Ye Shangzhou opened his eyes, his mind clearing for a moment. "If you have something to say, speak now; otherwise, the court may adjourn." He placed his large hand on the side of the dragon throne, his imposing presence radiating authority. "Hmm? Is there something you need?"
Qiao Zhen was closest to him, and the aura emanating from him made her feel a little breathless.
The ministers, looking utterly timid, all knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe loudly, saying, "We are unharmed."
Qiao Zhen looked at them with disappointment and frustration. Before Ye Shangzhou announced the end of the court session, she said, "I have something to attend to." Her four words were firm and resolute.
Ye Shangzhou looked at Qiao Zhen in surprise, "What is it?"
Qiao Zhen frowned. "Isn't the morning court session too early? I see that all the officials look unwell, with dark circles under their eyes. Perhaps we could postpone the morning court session by an hour?"
Ye Shangzhou's gaze swept over the ministers one by one, finally landing on Qiao Zhen. "Granted."
No one dared to object.
Emperor Linxian granted a concubine's remonstrance in court, and no minister objected.
The ministers said: "We are sorry, Your Majesty's suggestion is excellent, and we really cannot go against our conscience to refuse it."
Everyone knelt down and bowed.
Qiao Zhen picked up Ye Shangzhou in a princess carry and carried her down the steps on the left.
When they arrived at the Imperial Study, Ye Shangzhou was sitting in a bright yellow chair, and his gaze toward Qiao Zhen was somewhat strange.
Qiao Zhen was puzzled by his gaze, and a little frightened. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer, reached up and touched her face, and asked, "Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like that?"
Ye Shangzhou shifted his gaze elsewhere, "Madam is beautiful, so naturally I should look at her more."
You're kidding me!
Something seems off.
Pooh!
She's not a ghost.
Qiao Zhen, in a childish sullen mood, kept staring at Ye Shangzhou with burning eyes.
Ye Shangzhou felt uncomfortable under her gaze and teased, "What? Are you staring at me so intently?"
Qiao Zhen simply cupped her face and stared straight at Ye Shangzhou, "Yes, Your Majesty is so handsome, even if I don't look at you for a second, I still feel restless."
"You smooth talker, Ye Huaijin is better looking than me, why don't you go look at him?" Ye Shangzhou was stunned after saying this, and it was too late to regret it. He pretended to look at the memorial with ease.
Qiao Zhen withdrew her gaze, looked at the inkstone, and pondered with her eyes lowered. She felt that she had found another problem with Ye Shangzhou—Ye Huaijin, the inferiority complex he felt because of Ye Huaijin, or the jealousy he felt towards Ye Huaijin.
"Young Master, do you want to hear the truth?"
Ye Shangzhou murmured, "Mmm."
Qiao Zhen counted Ye Huaijin's merits on her fingers, "Young Master Jin is handsome and elegant, with a gentle and refined temperament, impeccable taste in clothing, and graceful manners. He is also not easily angered, and is proficient in poetry and prose. I've heard that he also has unique insights into warfare. Most importantly, he has a heart that is indifferent to fame and fortune, and a magnanimous spirit that embraces the world."
