Chapter 95 Lying Neck to Neck, Sleeping in the Same Bed
Pei Siyan looked at the mountain of memorials piled on the table, pinched the bridge of her nose, and closed her eyes slightly. She really was carefree and happy!
First there was Xie Guidu, then Zhang Chengxian, and now there's Shen Yanzhou—they're all such a handful.
When he opened his eyes again, he reached out and pulled a lustrous jade bottle from a box under the table. It contained the Nine Immortals Jade Dew Pills she had made. Pei Siyan opened the bottle and poured out a reddish-brown pill, preparing to swallow it.
There was a loud "snap".
The memorials on the table fell to the floor.
Pei Siyan threw the pill back into the jade bottle. The old physician had told him that this pill required thousands of ingredients to make, which showed how much effort the alchemist had put into it.
He thought that she was somewhat sincere towards him!
His rough fingertips caressed the sachet at his waist; she probably always saw their relationship as a transaction.
What's the point of talking about sincerity?
A dark thought was growing in Pei Siyan's mind: if he couldn't have it, he might as well destroy it!
"Is the show over?"
"Not yet." Eunuch Anxi said in a low voice, his heart pounding with fear.
The master is unusually irritable right now, as if he's having another headache; he could lose his head at any moment...
"Bring the person to me."
Anxi Gonggong was worried. If he went to invite her politely at this time, Miss Dou would be stubborn and probably wouldn't give in.
"If she insists on refusing..."
Pei Siyan threw the jade bottle back into the wooden box, and told people to prepare for a bath and change of clothes. His low, hoarse voice revealed no emotion, "If you can't even handle this simple matter, you can come back with your head!"
All was quiet. Dou Wenlianyi's carriage had just passed Xihua Road when it suddenly stopped. The coachman cautiously stepped forward to check the situation, but was covered in the mouth and roughly dragged off.
Cuizhi huddled in the corner, trembling with fear. Dou Wenyi held her breath and lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, where she saw Anxi's smiling face.
"His Highness the Crown Prince has suffered a relapse of his headache. Please, Miss Dou, come with us."
Dou Wenyi looked tired, her eyes were red, and a cold wind brushed against her cheeks, instantly sobering her up a bit.
Although Eunuch Anxi spoke in a low and gentle voice, she could still hear the firmness in his words.
"It's getting late—"
Before she could finish her polite refusal, she heard that shrill voice ring out again.
“Masters are of the highest status and may make mistakes as they please, but if a servant cannot advise her, she will suffer. Cuizhi, how can you be so ignorant? Why don’t you advise your master?”
Dou Wenyi was filled with turmoil. The emperor's power was overwhelming and would not allow her to provoke him. Eunuch Anxi was threatening her with Cuizhi's life.
His attitude represented Pei Siyan's attitude; she had no choice tonight.
Her relationship with Pei Siyan seemed to have plummeted to a freezing point again, and the fear of death struck once more!
The carriage traveled smoothly through the inner city and headed straight for the Chaohua Hall of the East Palace.
Inside the sleeping quarters of Chaohua Palace, the fragrance of incense wafted from the purple-gold incense burner, the candlelight flickered, and the thin gauze in the room swayed in the breeze. The person on the couch was languid and carefree, wearing only a magnificent robe. His strong waist and abdominal muscles were clearly defined, and his slender fingers held a sachet.
The sound of a woman moving gracefully came from outside. Pei Siyan raised his eyes and glanced at her. His cold gaze froze, and the murderous ruthlessness in his eyes inexplicably subsided.
The beautiful woman before me was like jade, dressed in a crimson dress that blazed like fire. Her thick, black hair was disheveled, and her fair neck seemed to still be damp with moisture. Her face was flushed, and she was still slightly drunk.
Her figure is graceful and charming, captivating and mesmerizing.
Her eyes, though seemingly innocent and timid, held a captivating allure that stirred his heart, making it impossible for him to look away.
Pei Siyan's thin lips curled up in a self-deprecating smile. He must have been blinded by lust to spoil her so much, allowing her to run wild.
Dou Wenyi's head was still a little dizzy, and her feet felt unsteady. She walked slowly to the bedside and dared not move any further. She asked softly, "Your Highness, is your headache acting up again? Did you take the Nine Immortals Jade Dew Pill?"
"It's no use!"
The person on the couch had a gloomy expression, and his low, hoarse voice startled her. What did he mean by useless?
Was the medicine ineffective, or did he not take it at all?
What does it mean exactly?
"come over!"
Are you going to get acupuncture?
With her disguise, how could she possibly hide even a single silver needle?
What's more, as soon as she arrived at the East Palace, Eunuch Anxi made a sarcastic remark that she smelled too much of alcohol and would offend His Highness. Without further ado, he ordered the head maid of the East Palace to forcibly take her to bathe and change.
"Your Highness, would you like to have your pulse taken?"
Pei Siyan's dangerous gaze swept over her neck, inch by inch, down her body as if caressing her. "Come to the bed."
Dou Wenyi suppressed her inner panic, her hands twisting into a knot. She had just been forced to clean herself. Pei Siyan had risked the lives of those around her to kidnap her in the middle of the night, and his intentions were self-evident.
"It's late at night, and I'm all alone."
Pei Siyan could see her panic, but he longed to lie with her, neck to neck, and sleep in the same bed.
For example, right now, he really wants to pull the person into his arms, caress and cherish them, and ravage them!
But her soft, delicate mouth always uttered words that made him uncomfortable, and his body was being devoured, burned, ravaged, and overwhelmed by an emotion called jealousy.
If this continues...
He'll go crazy!
Therefore, he could only use his usual method.
So what if it's despicable, cruel, and selfish?
Dou Wenyi lowered her head and pleaded, "Your Highness, you said you wouldn't force me..."
Pei Siyan chuckled lightly, "Dou Wenyi, just because I can't bear to kill you doesn't mean I won't kill the people you care about."
