Chapter 33 You Asked for It
"His Majesty has arrived!"
Yanyu Guyu hurriedly led the palace maids and eunuchs forward to kneel and pay their respects, with a hint of nervousness on their faces.
Xuan Yi didn't see anyone and waved slightly.
"Where's Su Zhaorong?"
Guyu quickly replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. Zhaorong didn't know Your Majesty would be coming today, so she is alone in the warm room at the back, uh, practicing singing and dancing..."
"Practice singing and dancing?"
"Yes, when Zhaorong practices singing and dancing, she never lets us servants stay to serve her. I will go and tell Zhaorong to come and receive you..."
"No need, you guys go down."
Xuan Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and walked straight to the warm room at the back.
"yes."
Guyu and Yanyu looked down at each other, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised.
***
There was no one guarding the warm room, the doors and windows were closed, and faint singing could be heard from inside.
Xuan Yi tilted his ear slightly, silently raised his hand to wave away Zhuang Yu and others, and walked up the stone steps in front of the door.
"At the end of the world, at the corner of the sea, I'm looking for a soulmate~"
"My little sister sings, my dear, I play the piano. My dear, we are of one mind~"
"Love, love, my dear, we are of one mind..."
The delicate voice was lazy and casual, murmuring with a vague little tail tone, which was very touching.
“…”
Xuan Yi, who was standing by the door, had deep black eyes, his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, and the corners of his mouth turned up.
No wonder even the personal maid can’t be kept.
This alluring little song is probably only for him...
"…My little sister is like a thread, and I am like a needle. We are inseparable~~"
There was a slight sound of the door being pushed open.
Damn, she finally came in. She has sung it several times...
Su Ci, lying on her side on a large soft pillow, curled her lips, lowered her eyes, took a sip of jasmine tea to moisten her throat, continued to hum a little tune, stood up, slightly raised her bare snow-white jade feet, raised her hand to grab the ribbon hanging from the beam, and spun around carelessly.
Behind the screen, Xuan Yi's pupils constricted, and he clenched his hands behind his back in restraint.
In the small warm room, there is a glass lamp on each of the four high-legged platforms, and the open space in the center is covered with flower petals. Next to the soft moon-white pillow, there are paintbrushes, drawing paper and a set of glass cups casually placed.
The woman was wearing a transparent gauze dress, through which her lotus-colored tube top and panties were faintly visible. As she moved, her slender waist twisted in an alluring curve. She raised her jade arms high, pulling the hanging ribbons. Her snow-white jade feet took light steps. Her three thousand black hair fell like a waterfall. Her face, with her eyes closed, was faintly flushed, and she looked lazy and comfortable.
It's like a charming fairy that came out from nowhere, captivating people's souls.
"My dear, we are inseparable...ah~"
The fairy was accidentally entangled in the ribbon, and she let out a soft moan and fell towards the soft pillow. She was then steadily caught by a pair of long arms, who gently turned her around and held her in their arms.
"Um?"
Su Ci hurriedly wrapped her legs around the man's narrow waist, her eyes wide open in surprise: "Your Majesty?"
"Uh..."
Xuan Yi's expression tightened, and he unconsciously bent his waist slightly.
The thin white legs were wrapped too tightly, and the hardness that had long been unable to be suppressed inevitably touched the softness.
The big palm unconsciously covered the perky part, and the bone-melting ecstasy of that night spread straight from the tailbone. Xuan Yi clenched his teeth and took a deep breath.
According to our ancestors’ rules, you cannot…
"snort!"
But the fairy in front of him was completely unaware of it. She tilted her head and put her arms around his neck. Her breath was as fragrant as orchid and she leaned close to his ear, the fragrance was refreshing. Her sweet voice was filled with grievance.
"I thought you ignored me. If you don't come over, I'll be angry..."
“…Su Ci, you are so outrageous.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Yi tilted his head and covered the slightly open red lips, a hint of unbearable growl escaped from his throat. The punishment became more severe, and his hands began to attack without hesitation.
"Well, Your Majesty, please don't..."
Hiss.
The thin and fragile gauze dress was torn easily. The little goblin screamed and pushed back, trying to run away, but was caught by one hand and thrown onto the big soft pillow. She lay there panting, her big watery eyes filled with an extremely seductive pink.
Xuan Yi watched intently, his blood boiling and his solar plexus throbbing. He casually took off his outer garment and threw it away before rushing forward hastily.
"You asked for it!"
…
Zhaohua Palace.
"My Lady, Eunuch Zhuang is here!"
The queen stood up and frowned as she glanced at Liu Xiuyuan who was hurriedly adjusting her clothes.
"Be steady. His Majesty dislikes people being clumsy. Please follow me to welcome him."
"Uh, yes!"
The palace maid who came to deliver the message looked nervous: "Your Majesty, it's, it's Eunuch Zhuang, Your Majesty, Your Majesty didn't come..."
"What?"
"May your Majesty be blessed with good health."
Zhuang Yu bowed as he entered, followed by several eunuchs carrying food boxes. "Empress, His Majesty has instructed us not to come tonight, and has sent some of your favorite dishes to the Imperial Kitchen."
“…”
Zhuang Yu didn't dare to look at the Queen's expression. He waited until the eunuch handed the food box to Nanny Li before he respectfully took his leave.
Bang!
As soon as Zhuang Yu left, a sound of porcelain breaking was heard in Zhaohua Palace. Several eunuchs and palace maids outside the palace hurriedly lowered their heads and dared not breathe.
Inside the hall, Liu Xiuyuan, Matron Li and two palace maids were kneeling with nervous expressions.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Shut up!"
The Queen's chest heaved violently as she gritted her teeth, her eyes fierce and fierce: "How dare Su Zhaorong step on my head!"
Liu Xiuyuan, dressed in her finest attire, said angrily, "Your Majesty, Su Zhaorong has seduced the Lord and broken the palace rules. You must punish her severely..."
"Shut up! Get out of here!"
"…yes."
Nanny Li quickly ordered the palace servants to clean up the broken porcelain pieces quickly, then left the hall with her head lowered.
"Madame Li, why doesn't Your Majesty question Su Ci's crime? It's an ironclad rule that His Majesty comes to Your Majesty's palace on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month. Even if we bring the matter to the Empress Dowager, we're still in the right!"
"Liu Xiuyuan, please go back first. I will comfort the queen myself."
“…Don’t let that little bitch fall into my hands!”
Liu Xiuyuan muttered angrily and left with her sleeves swung, not noticing that Nanny Li behind her was shaking her head as if she was a fool and walked into the hall.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Be careful not to get yourself hurt by anger."
The queen pulled off a few pearl hairpins from her hair and threw them down, her eyes lowered with a cold expression.
"When did Your Majesty enter the Yufu Palace?"
"…Your Majesty went to see the Empress Dowager between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. and stayed for less than two quarters of an hour before leaving for the Yufu Palace."
"Shenshi...it's already the end of Youshi (7pm), more than an hour has passed..."
The Queen clenched her fists, her sharp nails digging deep into her palms. "Your Majesty would never do that. He has always valued etiquette and rules. He would never do something that would offend His Majesty..."
Nanny Li pursed her lips and said, "Your Majesty, it's clear that His Majesty is truly angry this time. Please persuade the Master not to let the situation get any worse."
"Oh…"
The Queen gritted her teeth and sneered, "My Rui'er has lost the Emperor's favor, and I've also lost the Emperor's favor. My father and brothers are planning to send my two concubine sisters in. To them, I'm just a pawn. Have they ever considered my situation..."
"Your Majesty, this is wrong."
Nanny Li poured a cup of tea and stepped forward. "Our eldest prince is His Majesty's only legitimate son. This is your greatest confidence. No matter how favored Su Zhaorong is, she has no children to rely on. She is not to be feared. Your Majesty, the first thing to do is to help the Shen family overcome this difficulty. It will not be too late for you to take action to clean up the harem later."
“…”
The Queen took a deep breath, her eyes dark and gloomy. "Prepare the pen and paper. I need to write a letter to my father."
