But when she arrived at the emperor's bedroom in Chengqian Palace in the Fengluan Chun'en carriage, she knew she was wrong.
The entire bedroom was lit with bright candlelight, illuminating all the furnishings in the bedroom clearly.
Inside the huge bedroom, there were intricately carved sandalwood beams, the floor was paved with jade that shone with a lustrous luster, a nine-foot-wide sandalwood bed with carved dragon patterns, bright yellow curtains wrapped around the pillars, and white marble tassels carved with dense dragon patterns hung high in the center of the curtains. The room was filled with countless luxurious decorations, and it was truly extravagant.
…
Ye Jinyun sat on the dragon bed a little nervously. If she had dared to say it didn't matter before, she was a little stage fright now.
Although she had been in the palace for a year, she had never met the emperor in person. In previous occasions when the emperor was present, she had always acted like an ostrich.
Something was about to happen between her and someone she had never met before, and she was still a little nervous.
The most important person is the ancient emperor. As the saying goes, living with the emperor is like living with a tiger. She is about to fall into the tiger's mouth.
After sitting for a long time, she finally heard footsteps outside the bedroom and quickly sat up straight.
Then the door was pushed open from the outside with a creaky sound.
In the light of the candle, a tall and straight shadow appeared in her eyes. Ye Jinyun stared at the shadow on the ground and reacted immediately.
He immediately stood up and knelt down, saying to the figure:
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."
A tall figure gradually walked towards her from the door and stopped in front of her. Ye Jinyun felt a burning gaze staring at her.
Her palms were slightly sweaty, but she tried her best to stay calm.
A deep male voice full of masculinity sounded above her head: "My beloved, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Jinyun slowly stood up and stood there with his head down, not knowing what to do.
Mo Qiyuan looked at the ostrich-like person in front of him and felt quite amused.
He didn't expect that she was usually like this in front of others, completely different from the two times he saw her.
He raised the corner of his mouth and said with a hint of amusement: "Why, my beloved concubine, do you have to keep your head down and serve me like this?"
When Ye Jinyun heard this, he had to look up and look directly at the person in front of him.
A handsome face with clear and distinct lines came into view, and Ye Jinyun was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was quite handsome, and he immediately felt that he was not at a disadvantage.
She pretended to be shy and said: "Your Majesty, let me change your clothes for you."
Mo Qiyuan heard her charming voice and knew that she was pretending, but it was still very charming.
He suppressed the impulse in his heart and closed his eyes:
"No rush, my beloved, you've been waiting for so long, and the makeup on your face is a little dirty. Let me wipe it off for you."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand backwards, and Ye Jinyun saw that there was an follower following him.
When Chen Fuquan saw that the emperor was calling him, he hurried forward and handed over the handkerchief he had prepared long ago.
Mo Qiyuan took the handkerchief, picked up a corner and wiped it on her face. His movements were very gentle and he wiped it very carefully, as if he was treating an extremely precious treasure.
Ye Jinyun felt his movements and felt a little uncomfortable, so she turned her eyes away, not daring to look at him.
After a while, when she felt his hand finally leave her cheek, Ye Jinyun turned her gaze back to him.
The emperor was looking at her with tenderness in his eyes.
Ye Jinyun was wondering if this emperor was a little crazy.
Wasn't this the first time she officially met him? Why did he seem so familiar with her?
But the emperor's next words almost made her jaw drop.
He just said slowly: "My beloved concubine wants to hide it from me. How long will it take for her to hide in the harem like this?"
Ye Jinyun thought to himself, oh no, could it be that the emperor saw something?
That's impossible. She has never appeared in front of him properly. It's impossible for him to pay attention to her, let alone discover anything.
So she gritted her teeth and pretended not to understand, "Your Majesty, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Mo Qiyuan chuckled softly. He didn't expect her to be so stubborn. But it was okay. He could play with her slowly.
"Well, my beloved concubine, don't you know? Then what is going on? Can you tell me, my beloved concubine?"
After saying that, he took out a mirror from behind and held it up to her face.
Ye Jinyun looked at the face in the mirror and was stunned.
Where's her red spot? Why is it gone?
Then she thought of the handkerchief the emperor had just used to wipe her face, and was horrified.
Yes, it must be that handkerchief. No wonder the emperor had been staring at her face just now. It turned out that he had been exposed long ago.
It's over. Could this be considered deceiving the emperor? Will the emperor chop off her head?
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She immediately fell to her knees.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I did not intend to deceive you. I had to do so in order to survive in the mansion. Please spare my life."
Mo Qiyuan looked at the person kneeling in front of him, trembling slightly.
Did he think he was so terrible in her heart that he scared her like this? He cared about her so much, how could he possibly take her life.
But in order to punish her for keeping the secret from him, he still wanted to scare her again.
"Well, if it is the crime of deceiving the emperor, the law will punish the death of all nine generations of the clan."
When Ye Jinyun heard this, his heart sank. It was over. His life was in danger.
He immediately lost all his strength and fell to the ground from his kneeling position.
Seeing that his effect had been achieved, Mo Qiyuan stopped teasing her.
