Qian Shengyan would never agree!
If she hadn't been injured and was in good health, she could have played with him (not really), but now she hurts even to move, and she doesn't want to feel like a fish on a chopping board!
But because she couldn't move, Yinzhen easily subdued her. The palace maids brought over a screen and placed two blazing charcoal braziers outside to keep her from catching a cold.
Behind the screen, Yinzhen slowly removed her clothes. He pursed his lips as he looked at the wound on her chest, but dared not touch it. He took a soft cotton towel, moistened it with warm water, and gently wiped her skin.
Even so, Qian Shengyan's face turned bright red, and later she refused to let Yinzhen take off her pants no matter what.
She was about to cry: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please stop... Your Majesty, please stop, I really don't want to..."
Yinzhen: ...
He was just wiping her body, but she made it sound like he was a beast who wanted to do something to her while she was seriously injured.
He had no choice but to leave and have Qingxue and Lvliu take over serving Qian Shengyan.
The two palace maids were also teary-eyed when they saw Qian Shengyan. Qian Shengyan had been in a coma for more than ten days, and the two of them had served her tirelessly. They had finally waited for their mistress to wake up, but they never had a chance to come over and say a word.
But let alone them, the Emperor is monopolizing Qian Shengyan without giving her a moment's peace, and even the three young mistresses haven't had a chance to confide in their master yet...
"Master, you're finally awake." Green Willow looked several years older from all the suffering. She skillfully and carefully avoided Qian Shengyan's wounds and wiped her body. Qingxue massaged her waist and legs and said, "Master has survived this ordeal. From now on, you will enjoy a long and blessed life."
"You've both worked hard too." Qian Shengyan looked at their increasingly haggard faces and sighed with emotion, thinking that she would definitely reward them well once she recovered.
When she said this, they both laughed.
“My lord need not worry about that. This morning, Eunuch Su, on the Emperor’s orders, rewarded each of us with a year’s worth of monthly allowance,” Green Willow said with a smile.
Qingxue also said, "We don't care about that. As long as our master is well, that's the greatest joy for us."
After this experience, Qian Shengyan shared the same sentiment: "Living well is not an easy thing."
"Don't say such discouraging things! You will definitely live a long and long life!"
Yinzhen's voice came from outside the screen. The three of them paused, realizing that the Emperor hadn't left and was still outside. They didn't dare to say anything more, but their hands moved even faster.
Soon, the two palace maids left, the screen was moved away, and Yinzhen walked over and sat on the edge of the bed without any attempt to hide it. He placed his large hand on Qian Shengyan's leg and even started to massage her.
Qian Shengyan felt a numbness in her leg and exclaimed in surprise, "Your Majesty!"
"Hmm? The imperial physician said that you've been lying down all the time and need to massage your legs every day, otherwise it will affect your ability to walk in the future." Yinzhen kneaded her legs one by one. Because she had been lying down for a long time and was only kept alive by ginseng soup, Qian Shengyan's already slim figure had become even thinner. His hands could almost hold her calves completely.
He sighed again, "You've suffered."
Qian Shengyan: ...
To be honest, she had lived as a spirit for more than ten years and had not experienced any suffering. It was only after returning that she began to feel pain and discomfort in the past day and night.
Then I thought again, if she had been conscious a few days ago... wow, wouldn't she have been in excruciating pain?
Heaven has been kind to her; indeed, time-traveling women are God's favorite daughter, hehe.
Qian Shengyan looked at Yinzhen with a smile, in a great mood. She even mischievously kicked his hand with her toes. He didn't say anything despite such disrespect. Seeing that she wasn't wearing socks, he pinched her feet and stuffed them back into the quilt, and continued to massage her legs.
"Actually, I feel I can get up and walk around now." Qian Shengyan felt a little embarrassed by his accommodating manner.
Yinzhen refused: "Such a serious injury, and you've only rested for a few days? It's not too late to get up after the New Year."
Qian Shengyan: ?
After the New Year? Lying in bed for two months, wouldn't that cause your limbs to atrophy...?
The two were chatting idly when the warm sunlight streamed in through the window, making them feel drowsy. Last night, Yinzhen seemed afraid that Qian Shengyan would fall asleep again, so he kept talking to her. Now she was sleepy and lay there, unconsciously wanting to close her eyes.
She simply pleaded coquettishly, "Your Majesty, please come up here and sleep with me for a while~"
"Alright." Just as Yinzhen agreed, Su Peisheng stood at the door and said urgently, "Your Majesty, something has happened in the palace. Prince Yi requests an audience."
Yinzhen hesitated for a moment, but Qian Shengyan was already pushing him: "Your Majesty should go and see. If it weren't for an urgent matter, Prince Yi wouldn't have come to see you at this time."
"Then you should rest first." Yinzhen tidied her hair, got up and went out.
Qian Shengyan didn't think much of it. She closed her eyes and was just about to doze off when she suddenly heard the sound of porcelain shattering outside, accompanied by Yinzhen's angry shouts.
She was startled and tried to sit up, but the movement aggravated her wound, causing her to fall back onto the bed with a cry of pain.
"Don't move, mistress!" Green Willow, who was guarding the door, quickly came over to help her. Qingxue also walked in from outside and said, "His Majesty asked me to tell you that he has something to do and needs to go back to the palace. He will be back later."
"It's already this late, let His Majesty stay in the palace tonight!" Qian Shengyan hurriedly sent her to deliver the message, but by the time Qingxue went out, Yinzhen had already left, leaving only broken teacups and a crooked small table on the ground. Only then did the kneeling palace servants dare to get up.
"Prince Yi seems to be crying, kneeling there and refusing to get up... The Emperor is furious..." Qingxue whispered to Qian Shengyan.
Qian Shengyan couldn't help but be curious. At this point, the Eighth and Ninth Princes had been dealt with and were completely subdued, and Nian Gengyao was in prison. Who else could possibly provoke Yinzhen into such a rage?
She was so tired that she forced herself to stay awake for a while before falling asleep. She was woken up in the middle of the night by a rustling sound. When she opened her eyes, she saw Yinzhen standing by the bed with his back to her, taking off his clothes.
"Your Majesty..." Qian Shengyan called out in a daze.
Yinzhen turned around, his cold expression softening slightly: "Did I wake you up?"
"I went to bed early... Is Your Majesty only returning now?" Qian Shengyan glanced at the darkness outside, somewhat worried. "Your Majesty, please get some rest."
"Hmm." Yinzhen lay on the bed, but still couldn't fall asleep. He held Qian Shengyan's hand, slowly stroking it, sighed, and after a while, sighed again.
Qian Shengyan: ...
She grasped Yinzhen's hand in return and asked helplessly, "Your Majesty didn't sleep well last night, aren't you sleepy?"
“Yanyan…” Yinzhen was clearly preoccupied. He turned around, facing Qian Shengyan, and leaned in to kiss her gently. “Only by your side can I feel at ease.”
It was obvious he had something he wanted her to ask. Qian Shengyan moved closer to him, resting her head on his shoulder: "What happened?"
