They studied until late at night, and Qin Yu didn't force Zhao Yan to do anything excessive; he simply held Zhao Yan and fell asleep.
After offering only token resistance, Zhao Yan gave in to Qin Yu, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.
She slept until the sun was high in the sky, and she didn't know if it was because she felt safe being held by Qin Yu or for some other reason.
Zhao Yan was completely captivated by the warm embrace. When she woke up and looked around, Qin Yu was nowhere to be seen.
In an instant, a feeling of emptiness and loneliness welled up in Zhao Yan's heart, making her feel empty inside. Feeling the lingering warmth beside the bed made her even more absent-minded.
But before she could think further, Zi Yan rushed in.
"Second Miss, Eldest Miss will be back soon, you should go now."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yan quickly got up, skillfully packed her things, and turned to leave the room that had once filled her with fear and resistance.
But the moment she stepped out of the room, she felt a void in her heart. Suddenly remembering something, Zhao Yan quickly turned back, carefully gathered the paintings on the table, and hid them in her sleeve.
Her hurried departure was reflected on the tall and imposing courtyard wall. Looking back, Zhao Yan's eyes showed a hint of lingering affection.
Meanwhile, inside the study, Qin Yu stood at the door with his hands on his hips, angrily kicking An Fu's buttocks repeatedly while cursing.
"You scoundrel, why isn't your red pill working anymore? It's infuriating! I took it last night and it had absolutely no effect. You deserve a beating!"
Although the fight looked fierce, Anfu knew that His Majesty was just putting on an act.
"Qingzhu, where is Qingzhu? Quickly go and ask Abbot Liu if the Aphrodisiac Powder is ready yet! I've been waiting to use it!"
Seeing Qin Yu pacing back and forth in the study like a cat on a hot tin roof in a fit of rage, Yu Zhu couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
No wonder there was no movement in the harem last night; it turns out that this tyrant ran out of medicine. What a useless piece of trash! He even needs medicine to sustain him in doing such things. He is indeed incredibly incompetent.
What Yu Zhu didn't know was that this was a secret code that Qing Zhu and Qin Yu had agreed upon together. Upon hearing Qin Yu say this, Qing Zhu quickly ran over.
"Your Majesty, this servant will go and ask the abbot how the progress is."
With that, he dashed off towards Qingyun Temple.
Seeing Qingzhu panting as soon as she entered, Liu Caiqing smiled slightly and waved her hand.
"What's wrong? What happened that you're so flustered?"
Qingzhu quickly reported this.
"His Majesty wishes to see Hu Pan!"
Half an hour later, Qingzhu returned, panting heavily. She looked at Qin Yu, who was slumped on the dragon throne, pretending to be dozing off.
"Your Majesty, the Aphrodisiac Powder has been prepared. The abbot requests that you go and test the medicine. After all, your health is of utmost importance, and we cannot be careless under any circumstances. We must make full preparations before testing the medicine."
He jumped up from the dragon throne in a hurry, and with a lewd grin, Qin Yu put his arm around Qingzhu's slender waist. After looking her up and down, he pretended to be a pervert and said.
"Alright, alright, I'll go right away. You seem to be in good health, so why don't you accompany me to test the medicine later!"
As he spoke, Qin Yu's hand began to grope Qingzhu's slender waist, his hand wandering towards her upper body, then reaching inside her clothes, looking like a lustful glutton. Yuzhu, watching from the side, trembled with fear. If she were to fall into the hands of this lustful glutton, she would probably be begging for death!
Qingzhu had never seen such teasing before. Her whole body turned as red as a peach, but she could only pretend to be charming and accommodating, cooperating with Qin Yu's performance.
Meanwhile, at the Prime Minister's residence.
"Bang!"
"You bastard! Has Jia Renyi gone mad? How dare he betray me! Does he really think the emperor can save him?!"
Looking at the intelligence that Yuzhu sent back from the palace, Sima Lie was unusually angry. Nothing else mattered to him, but what angered him the most was that his interest group actually had such good-for-nothing scoundrels as the Jia family father and son.
He was offering advice to the young emperor yesterday, but now it seems all his good intentions were wasted.
"Kill them. Jia Renyi and Jia Zhengjin are no longer of any use. Keeping them alive will only cause trouble. It's better to kill them to prevent them from interfering with our important plans."
Qiu Beiming spoke in a sinister tone from the side, his eyes filled with endless killing intent.
Sima Lie was very tempted by Qiu Beiming's words.
"Don't forget, if Jia Renyi is willing to betray us because of these things this time, countless others will also ruin our plans for similar reasons in the future."
"Why don't we just use the Jia family father and son as an example this time, and kill them both to scare the monkeys, so that everyone knows what will happen if they oppose us!"
"Your Excellency, this matter must not be set a precedent, otherwise..."
Although the following words were not explicitly stated, Sima Lie understood that Qiu Beiming's words made sense.
"Alright, let's do it this way! If he's ruthless, don't blame me for being ruthless too."
The conspiracy was brewing in the Prime Minister's residence, while in the Qingyun Temple on the other side, Qin Yu rushed in. Upon seeing this, Liu Caiqing quickly led Qin Yu towards the secret room.
Watching Liu Caiqing sway gracefully ahead, Qin Yu was momentarily lost in thought. He hadn't really looked closely at Liu Caiqing's back before, and he hadn't expected that this woman had such a good figure.
Even the loose Taoist robe couldn't hide Liu Caiqing's stunning figure; her pert buttocks and incredibly slender waist made her waist-to-hip ratio reach an astonishing number.
Furthermore, Liu Caiqing's swaying gait and the way her rounded figure rose and fell seductively captivated Qin Yu, causing him to almost lose his soul.
This woman is a natural-born champion of uniforms! If she were to wear an office lady outfit, a nurse's uniform, or a cheongsam and stand in front of me, I'm afraid I would surrender on the spot!
Just as he was lost in thought, Liu Caiqing, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped. Qin Yu couldn't dodge in time and bumped into her from behind.
He caught Liu Caiqing, who was about to fall, and the two bodies made intimate contact. Qin Yu held her firm, round breasts in his hand, and then it was over in an instant.
Seeing Liu Caiqing hiding a few steps away, Qin Yu smiled awkwardly. Feeling the soft touch from his fingertips, a ripple of emotion stirred in his heart.
"Your Majesty, thank you very much. If it weren't for your timely intervention, I might have really fallen to the ground."
When Liu Caiqing said that, Qin Yu couldn't say anything else, he just kept waving his hand.
"No, no, it's my fault. I wasn't paying attention just now. Minister Liu, let's continue."
As he spoke, Qin Yu took the lead and pushed open the door to the room, slowly walking in.
