Chapter 32: The Paranoid Emperor's Bird in His Palm 4



There were dotted marks on her collarbone.

The man showed his true colors like a wild beast in front of the weak and helpless girl.

Ruan Mian's slender waist was tied so tightly that she had difficulty breathing.

The girl's pretty little face looked pitiful, even the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose were flushed.

The light blue tulle skirt spread out on the ground.

I cursed him silently in my heart, "Shameless, bastard!"

The man's narrow brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with gloom.

"Open your mouth."

Ruan Mian shook his head stubbornly and refused.

He raised the corner of his mouth into a playful smile, "Idiot."

As soon as he finished speaking, he pinched the girl's upturned nose.

Soon she was holding her breath so hard that her face turned red, and she was breathing rapidly with her little mouth slightly open.

Bad guy...

The thick eyelashes kept shaking, and crystal clear liquid flowed out from the corners of the lips.

Mo Yan wiped it off for her with his fingertips, murmuring hoarsely and lowly.

“So sweet.”

Ruan Mian's earlobes turned a shade of red after hearing what he said, and she used her palm to push away the man who was trying to get closer.

At night, the patrol team passed by the wall, their footsteps were uniform.

What should a frightened girl do if she is worried about being heard by others?

[Second mission released: Please redeem the sachet within one hour and place it inside the heroine Qiao Lingling's clothes to help her stand out at tomorrow's concubine selection meeting.]

It is sold in the system mall and requires five points to redeem.

It seems that this sachet has some special function that makes people who smell it feel good about the wearer.

Ruan Mian's fingertips were bitten by Mo Yan, leaving teeth marks. Is he born in the year of the dog?

But I dare not say this.

"Master Imperial Master, I have to go back now..."

The man was in high spirits, but his face turned chillingly cold when he heard what she said.

The girl continued to beg, "Please..."

The man's eyes darkened, and a murderous look appeared between his brows. He stood up and threw down a black fox fur cloak to cover the girl's body.

"Let's go."

Ruan Mian put on his outer robe, which was ill-fitting and dragged a long way on the ground.

She was so frightened that she hastily picked up the soiled robe.

The girl's clear eyes were too timid to look into Mo Yan's eyes.

Before she could take a step, the man picked her up and jumped onto the roof with just a flick of his Kung Fu. It was so high!

The girl felt the wind blowing from the height and was so scared that she held his shoulders with both hands and did not dare to let go for fear of falling.

The two of them stopped on the golden glazed tiles.

"Which room do you live in?"

He asked Ruan Mian in an indifferent tone.

The girl pointed to the woodshed in the corner and said, "There."

Pushing open the leaky wooden door, all you see is wood and debris, and a small bed is placed against the wall.

"You live here?"

The man frowned and looked around, as if he had never seen such a dilapidated house before.

His black boots inevitably got dusty when they stepped on the ground. Seeing this, Mo Yan pursed his thin lips even tighter.

Suddenly a big cockroach came out and crawled past Ruan Mian's feet.

“Ugh!”

The girl panicked and jumped directly into the arms of the calm man.

It’s so scary. What kind of life is it like to do tasks by yourself?

When she first met Madam Zhao, she disliked her and deliberately assigned the worst residence to her.

I heard the man's barely audible laugh.

He threw a needle from his sleeve and accurately pinned the foraging cockroach in place.

"It's okay, come down."

After the girl really left him, the man's fingertips caressed her as if he was still savoring the warmth and soft touch.

As soon as Mo Yan left, Ruan Mian quickly exchanged the sachet and ran to the heroine's bedroom in the dark.

Qiao Lingling had her maid prepare the clothes she would wear tomorrow and hang them at the head of the bed. The layers of bed curtains made it convenient for the girl to move around.

She half-knelt and tied the sachet around her waist, tying a knot just in case.

[Congratulations on successfully completing the second task, and you will be rewarded with ten points]

early morning.

Today is the day when the imperial concubine selection meeting begins. Hundreds of women have flocked into the palace. They are beautiful and in their prime, with plump and slender figures.

They are all daughters of aristocratic families.

The most outstanding woman among them is the sixteen-year-old Hu Yan, the youngest daughter of the current General of Cavalry.

She was spoiled by her family since she was young, and she has a pretty face, red lips and white teeth.

She is both talented and beautiful, with excellent temperament, and is the most suitable candidate to become the queen.

In addition, her father has 100,000 troops stationed on the border. If she could establish a relationship with him, Lou Che would be even more powerful and would be able to sit firmly on the throne.

Qiao Lingling must have realized that Hu Yan posed the greatest threat to her, and she was so annoyed that she lost her temper in the palace early in the morning and smashed a lot of precious porcelain awarded by the late emperor.

The shouting and cursing could be faintly heard outside the door.

Fortunately, His Majesty never comes here, otherwise he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

The princess was in a bad mood, and Zhao Ma, her wet nurse, was also anxious.

I'm about to start finding fault again.

Ruan Mian was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He took the dirty clothes for today and went to the well to wash them.

To avoid being scolded by her if she saw it.

But the girl caught a glimpse of Zhao Ma, who rarely scolded the maid. Instead, she walked out in a panic, not knowing where she was going. She seemed to have stuffed a box into her sleeve.

The time for the princess selection meeting is about to begin. Shouldn't she go and help the princess dress up?

Why are you rushing out...

Ruan Mian followed her lightly, quietly following until she saw Zhao Ma enter the villa where the concubines rested.

Less than half an hour later, she looked around cautiously before walking out the door.

The girl couldn't figure out why Aunt Zhao went in there.

In the imperial garden, Lou Che sat in the main seat, his gentle face showing a lack of interest, and occasionally he couldn't stop coughing.

"Your Majesty, are you all right?"

His personal eunuch saw it but could do nothing and felt extremely distressed.

"I'm fine, go ahead."

Batch after batch of charming and attractive beauties were replaced, but they all lacked the nobility of daughters of wealthy families. Those who deserved titles were given titles, and those who deserved rewards were given rewards.

The ministers were also satisfied.

Qiao Lingling performed a dance that amazed the whole audience. She wore a thin sandalwood gauze woven with gold phoenix patterns and a gilded silver sash on her head.

Her dance moves are as graceful as a light butterfly flying among flowers, and her every move reveals her gracefulness.

"Princess Pingyang dances beautifully!"

"After all, she was personally chosen for Your Majesty by the late Emperor, so she is naturally different from ordinary women."

After the dance, she saluted the emperor with a shy smile on her pretty face.

"Brother Che, do you think Lingling dances well?"
