Chapter 201: Partying Every Night
The sun was high in the sky, and the warm light shone through the glazed windows of the front hall, casting a golden glow on the ground.
After getting up in the morning, Shen Yuling washed carefully under the gentle care of the palace maids.
She was wearing a silk skirt as thin as a cicada's wing, the hem of which swayed gently as she walked, like petals dancing in the spring wind, light and graceful, with endless charm in every step.
Because the bedroom is connected to the front hall, Shen Yuling does not need to enter through the majestic gate of the front hall.
She approached quietly from the side.
He quietly came to the dragon chair and sat down: "Can't I go out by myself?"
Quan Minghe was tall and the dragon throne was made to be exceptionally majestic.
After Shen Yuling sat down, she dangled her feet in the air, throwing her shoes away. It was more comfortable to dangle barefoot.
Quan Minghe looked around and changed the subject, frowning as he looked at her bare feet.
He gently placed her legs on his legs: "Are you hungry?"
Just as Shen Yuling was about to shake her head to deny it, a palace maid came in carrying something.
Then he carefully placed a bowl of steaming soup on the table, bowed slightly, and quietly left.
Shen Yuling felt strange, but couldn't tell what was strange.
Quan Minghe looked at the bowl of soup with a calm gaze, but it seemed to be hiding something: "Drink some, you haven't had breakfast or lunch yet, drink some soup to nourish your stomach first, and the other meals will be delivered later."
Shen Yuling complained quietly, "I didn't eat breakfast and lunch, and it's because you don't know how to control yourself."
Then he picked up the soup and drank it mouthful by mouthful.
Quan Minghe waited quietly for her to finish drinking, took the bowl from her hand, handed it to the palace maid waiting beside her, and ordered: "Pick up the shoes."
The maid picked up the shoes as she was told and was about to go forward to help Shen Yuling put them on, but Shen Yuling seemed to be deliberately being petty and retracted her feet, hiding them directly between Quan Minghe's legs.
"Put on your shoes. If you feel bored, help me look at the greetings on the side. I'll take you out when I'm done."
Shen Yuling was displeased and gently kicked his leg with her foot, "Can't I get out by myself? It's just the palace, can I still run away?"
Quan Minghe looked at her steadily, "Before I figure out some things, or before you tell me the truth, I will not let you act alone. You can only stay by my side."
Shen Yuling glared at him and kicked him again: "Then you wear it."
The palace maid stood aside, not daring to make a sound, and silently lowered her head, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
Quan Minghe was not angry. He reached out to take the shoes handed to him by the palace maid and put them on Shen Yuling himself.
After getting dressed, Shen Yuling sat down obediently beside him, casually reached out and picked up the memorial on the edge and began to look through it.
There was silence in the front hall for a while, with only the occasional sound of flipping papers.
Time passed quietly, Quan Minghe sat at the desk, the red pen in his hand sometimes paused and sometimes fell on the memorial.
From time to time, he lowered his eyes to look at Shen Yuling beside him. He saw that she was frowning slightly and was flipping through the book in her hands seriously, but there was a hint of impatience between her eyebrows.
She now looks like she has shed her previous disguise of trying to please others, and her personality has become more authentic.
Every little expression, every unintentional little movement, made Quan Minghe feel an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Why are they so similar?
Quan Minghe frowned, and the doubts in his heart grew stronger.
This scene seemed to be exactly the same as when Xixi was here.
He quickly collected his thoughts and forced himself not to think about it anymore. If he always treated her as Xixi, she would probably be unhappy if she knew.
Kwon Myung-hyuk turned his attention back to the memorial.
At dinner time, the two sat opposite each other. The table was filled with exquisite dishes and wisps of hot steam rose up.
After the meal, Quan Minghe took Shen Yuling for a stroll in the palace. The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on them and giving their figures a layer of silver.
As they walked, they returned to Yaohua Palace. In the quiet night, the two of them were close and spent a wonderful night together.
Days like this lasted for a long time.
However, Shen Yuling always felt that there was something strange about Quan Minghe during this period.
She has been taking contraceptive pills, but Quan Minghe seems to be particularly indulgent these days, spending every night with her. It is no exaggeration to say that they are having fun every night.
Shen Yuling was afraid that she would accidentally get pregnant, but she had a cold uterus and took Zhou Qi's medicine almost every day, so she should not get pregnant.
Moreover, Shen Yuling had other plans in mind. She wanted to measure his alcohol tolerance.
So he used boredom as an excuse to drink and have fun with Kwon Myung-hyuk every day.
Although she occasionally got angry at Kwon Myung-hyuk's unbridled and lasting intimacy, she never resisted too much.
Tonight, Shen Yuling made even more careful preparations, and during this time she had also measured Quan Minghe's alcohol tolerance.
She used distillation to concentrate low-proof liquor into high-concentration strong liquor, and cleverly disguised it so as not to be noticed by Kwon Myung-hyuk.
The reason why it was so troublesome was that she couldn't get any unusual medicine at all, and even the wine was prepared by Li Ming.
Now Quan Minghe is guarding against her like he is a wolf.
In the rear hall of the Weiyang Palace, the lights were bright, the musicians were playing melodious music, and the dancers, dressed in gorgeous costumes, were dancing gracefully in the center of the hall.
The waving long sleeves are full of charm.
Shen Yuling, wearing a gorgeous palace dress, sat side by side with Quan Minghe on a chair carved with dragons and phoenixes, enjoying the scene of singing and dancing.
Shen Yuling smiled like a flower, and from time to time she picked up the wine glass and fed the wine to Quan Minghe.
In order to please her and prevent her from getting bored, Quan Minghe allowed her to arrange singing and dancing feasts every night and drank and had fun with her.
But Quan Minghe just drank the wine in the glass and frowned slightly: "Today's wine seems to be stronger?"
Shen Yuling leaned against him and said with a sweet smile, "Really? Wasn't the wine prepared by Li Ming? Your alcohol tolerance is not getting worse and worse, is it?"
Then, she poured him another cup and pleaded softly, "Since you don't have to go to court tomorrow, just play with me for a while."
Quan Minghe's heart softened and he drank another glass from her hand.
Finally, with Shen Yuling's efforts, Quan Minghe became completely drunk, collapsed on the chair, and lost consciousness.
The charm on Shen Yuling's face disappeared in an instant. She immediately stood up, walked through the bedroom, and hurried away along the secret passage leading to Lingxi Palace.
The people in Weiyang Palace knew that Quan Minghe would not let her go out alone, so she could not go out openly, so she could only take the secret passage.
Lingxi Palace once suffered a major fire and is now deserted, with no guards guarding it.
Shen Yuling came out of Lingxi Palace and, under the guidance of Xitong, walked quickly towards the dungeon.
The dungeon in the dark night seemed particularly eerie and terrifying, with cold wind howling past.
The guards outside were terrified when they saw Shen Yuling in her gorgeous phoenix robe, and they quickly knelt down and saluted: "Your Highness."
A guard saw the queen preparing to enter the dungeon, hesitated for a moment, and then bravely said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has ordered that no one can enter the dungeon without his decree."
Shen Yuling took out Quan Minghe's token from her sleeve without any hurry.
Seeing the token is like seeing the emperor.
Outside the palace, Quan Minghe often used it to command everyone.
This was not the first time that Shen Yuling had taken the token. Quan Minghe had originally hidden it well, but these days, she had been active in Yaohua Palace and Weiyang Palace every day, and she had searched Weiyang Palace thoroughly. It was naturally not difficult for her to secretly take it and use it for a while.
When the guards saw His Majesty's token, they dared not stop him and stepped aside.
Shen Yuling walked into the dungeon unhindered.
