Chapter 18
Yan Shiyu sneered but did not let go. He rubbed her jaw with his fingertips until the blush disappeared.
Ruan Jun was still kneeling on the ground. The emperor must have wanted to enter the harem just now, and she happened to come here at this time.
Now Tingxu is still in Hanyu Palace. Yu Ronghua should be more restrained after being under house arrest. However, the palace is heavily guarded. She is even more afraid that her little actions will be known by the emperor, which will then involve other things and implicate Tingxu, so she dare not ask.
Because there was no news about Tingxu, she wanted to get Tingxu out of Hanyu Palace more than anyone else, and Ji's selection of concubines happened to be an opportunity.
Her fair wrist stretched out from her sleeve, and her moist fingertips hooked on the dragon claw on the dragon robe. The snow-white jade and the black color were intertwined. Yan Shiyu's dark eyes gradually took in her tender hands with skin as smooth as cream. Her almond-shaped eyes looked at him pitifully, with affectionate words in them, and a frown and a frown on her face.
Yan Shiyu held her naughty little hand and pulled Ruan Yun into his arms.
Wei Maoyuan saw this scene as soon as he turned around. He was so shocked that he adjusted the hat on his head and turned around quickly. This was at the gate of the Purple Palace. In the past, the emperor would be unhappy if the concubines stood here for a moment, but today it was Miss Ruan Yun, and the emperor became even more interested.
"Go to Qingyi Palace and tell Concubine Shu that I will not be there today."
After saying this, Yan Shiyu grabbed Ruan Jun's hand and walked into the Zichen Palace.
Ruan Jun heard something being put down behind him and the door of Zichen Palace was closed. He glanced sideways and saw that it was the food box he brought with him. As expected of Yu Qian, he was very efficient.
Yan Shiyu had already walked to the high dragon throne and glanced at Ruan Jun with a calm expression.
There was still a burning touch from the emperor on her wrist. Ruan Yun bent down gently to pick up the food box. The red marks on her wrist made her look particularly charming.
The food box was gently placed on the table. Yan Shiyu grabbed Ruan Yun's delicate face and said, "It's soup again."
Ruan Yun's cheeks turned red the moment he said this. She bit her lip and took out the soup from the food box. "Ji Xuanshi thought about the hard work of the emperor and asked me to bring it to you."
The tonic soup was still steaming; Ruan Jun lowered her head and dared not look at it any further, but she could feel the emperor's amusement gaze.
Suddenly, someone grabbed her slender waist, just like the last time in the Zichen Palace, the emperor lifted her chin, leaving her with no way to avoid it.
"Your Majesty..." Ruan Jun's voice trembled. Yan Shiyu pressed his thumb against her lips, and the roughness of his thumb made her lips look particularly swollen.
Yan Shiyu pressed his jade ring against Ruan Yun's, and a tingling sensation came over him. The emperor's cold voice followed, "What do you want?"
Ruan Jun did not dodge, her almond eyes were full of water, and her weak appearance made people want to protect her, "I want to serve the emperor."
Yan Shiyu pinched her face with a half-smile, "You are quite brave."
She always hid in the past, but now she has become much bolder and bumped into him directly, even saying rude things. She really thought he would not punish her.
When Yan Shiyu saw her fluctuating emotions, he knew that she was not as calm as she looked, and she was also nervous, yet she said such seductive words.
Yan Shiyu kissed the exposed skin at the collar. Ruan Jun lifted her calves and hooked them around his waist unconsciously.
An unconscious broken tone escaped from her mouth, her waist was pinched hard by Yan Shiyu's big hand, and the emperor in front of him no longer had any patience to untie the laces on her dress. A slit appeared in the dress, revealing her well-proportioned calves.
Ruan Yun's eyes were filled with spring water. The emperor's power made her subconsciously want to step back a little, but her waist was pinched, making her unable to move.
Her slender waist ached badly, her belt had already fallen to the ground, and even her hair had become loose. Her flushed face overshadowed the bright red palace dress she was wearing.
Yan Shiyu had just moved some distance away when Ruan Jun suddenly knelt down at his feet. He frowned and patted her waist/hips, "Get up."
Ruan Yun frowned and said in a sweet voice, "My body hurts."
It really hurts, it hurts so much when I'm pinched.
Yan Shiyu mercifully extended his big hand to Ruan Yun. Ruan Yun pretended to take his hand, and Yan Shiyu held her on his lap, kneading her roundness slowly and steadily. The table in front of him was full of memorials. Yan Shiyu swept across the table and let go completely. He knew the Zichen Palace best, and he didn't want to be like the late emperor, who was drained of his body by beauty in his early years and could only lie on the bed in his later years.
"Go down."
Ruan Jun curled her lips and hugged Yan Shiyu's neck, "No."
Who knew that with this move, Yan Shiyu's face suddenly darkened. He held her waist, and her buttocks were clearly visible. Ruan Yun saw the warning in Yan Shiyu's eyes and said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty has made this servant like this. It's unreasonable."
Yan Shiyu was so angry that he laughed. He squeezed the roundness under his palm tightly and said, "I haven't done anything yet."
Although he said so, he picked up Ruan Yun and walked to the screen, saying, "Wei Maoyuan, bring in some clothes."
Wei Maoyuan, who had been waiting outside the palace, was already shocked. There was no sound in the palace just now, so why did they have to send clothes in now? Could it be that the Zichen Palace was really going to have a concubine? The emperor was really bewitched by Miss Ruan Yun.
Holding the serving tray, Wei Maoyuan was about to step behind the screen when he received the emperor's cold glare. He quickly put down his dress and went outside, pointing at his apprentice Xiao Muzi's hat and saying, "Go to Yunling Pavilion and choose a palace maid to serve you. Remember, don't let anyone see you."
There were no palace maids in front of the emperor, and the emperor always disliked women serving him closely, so it was really troublesome for Miss Ruan Yun to be there.
Ruan Yun shrank a little closer to Yan Shiyu's arms, lingering there unconsciously, but Yan Shiyu's face became even more gloomy. None of the concubines in the palace had the courage to do this in his arms.
The big palm fell down without any mercy. Ruan Yun was unwilling to endure the pain and moved even more fiercely, "The emperor won't let anyone come in to serve, what can this servant do?"
Yan Shiyu's eyebrows furrowed, and Ruan Jun's thigh accidentally touched Shi Geng's things, and her face immediately turned red. She didn't care that her clothes were messy and fell straight into Yan Shiyu's arms.
"Heh." Yan Shiyu spoke unhappily. Ruan Jun grabbed her collar, but still couldn't hide her fleeting beauty.
Yan Shiyu's eyes were dark, it was not because he had never experienced the feeling there, but precisely because he had experienced it, it was even more difficult to forget.
Ruan Yun's ears turned red. She only hoped that her courage today would win the emperor's favor. It would be great if the emperor would agree when she mentioned Tingxu later.
However, Ruan Yun didn't know that Yan Shiyu could see through her little thoughts very well.
Holding the teacup to calm himself down, Yan Shiyu narrowed his eyes. What a little liar, she dared to use him.
Little Muzi quickly brought a mature and steady palace maid. Wei Maoyuan said with a trembling heart, "Your Majesty, may I ask Ying Ning from Yunling Pavilion to come in and serve you?"
After getting the emperor's approval, Yingning picked up the support and walked behind the screen without looking away.
Ruan Jun entered the inner hall of the Zichen Palace, which was where Yan Shiyu usually took a break. The place was filled with imperial majesty.
Yingning helped Ruan Yun take off her dress. When she saw the bruises on her body, her face turned red unconsciously, not to mention the mottled red marks on her neck and even on her snow-capped peaks.
Ruan Jun felt uncomfortable because of the rubbing of the clothes, and the groaning sound was heard by Yan Shiyu who was sitting outside. He touched the pearl flower in his hand. The pearls on it were dazzling. It was obviously a royal item, which a palace maid like her would not have.
The shape of the pearl flower in the palm of his hand was slightly uneven. Yan Shiyu had to wait for the girl's coquettish voice to subside before he returned to normal. After tasting it, he could never forget it and was no longer satisfied.
Ying Ning has been working in Yunling Pavilion since His Majesty ascended the throne because of her steady work. She walked up to Yan Shiyu and bowed, saying, "The young lady has some injuries on her body."
This was said in a tactful and implicit way. Yan Shiyu just nodded at the table and said, "I don't want to hear any gossip."
Ying Ning knelt down, "I understand."
When Ruan Yun came out, Yan Shiyu was the only one left in the inner hall. Ruan Yun was not very happy and snuggled into Yan Shiyu's arms again, "I love you so much."
Yan Shiyu lowered his eyes and saw her pouting lips right in front of him, but the red color of her makeup was eye-catching.
Putting the pearl flower he had been playing with into Ruan Yun's little hand, Yan Shiyu said calmly, "Go back."
Ruan Yun saw clearly what was in the hand. She thought the emperor had thrown it away long ago. Why was he still keeping it? What was the purpose of returning it to her this time?
Could it be that the emperor doesn't like people doing this? But from what she had seen before, it was clear that men all liked women like this.
While she was still lost in thought, Yan Shiyu spoke, "Anything else you want to say?"
Ruan Jun immediately lost her desire to speak. If she really spoke, wouldn't it be saying that she came here today because she had something to do? Not to mention that the emperor was already annoyed, he would probably get even angrier later.
Walking out of the Zichen Palace, Ruan Jun was holding the food box she brought with her, with a sullen look on her face. She greeted Wei Maoyuan listlessly and left.
Wei Maoyuan entered the inner hall. The emperor had already straightened his dragon robe and sat back on the table. "How is she?"
Knowing that the emperor was asking about Miss Ruan Yun, Wei Maoyuan pondered the emperor's thoughts and said, "He looks a little depressed."
It is obvious that the Emperor has taken a liking to Miss Ruan Yun and asked for her clothes today. Why did Miss Ruan Yun leave the Purple Palace like this? Was she willing or not?
Yan Shiyu was writing on the memorial with a brush in his hand, the purple gold auspicious beast incense burner was emitting ambergris, Wei Maoyuan looked at the emperor's expression, and finally swallowed the action of Concubine Shu after hearing that the emperor would not go today. Ruan Yun found a small path to return to Yixiang Pavilion quickly. She was always afraid of being suspected if she was out for too long, so it was better to go back quickly.
But she didn't expect that just after she entered the path, she saw Concubine Shu walking towards her in a mighty manner. Ruan Yun's almond-shaped eyes moved slightly, and she knelt in the middle of the road.
Concubine Shu winked at Liu Jin, and when she walked to her side, Liu Jin first silently kicked over the food box that Ruan Yun had placed on the ground, causing the round lid to roll to Concubine Shu's feet. Ruan Yun hurried to pick it up, but was slapped hard by Liu Jin, "You bastard, are you trying to make the queen slip?"
Ruan Yun said weakly, "I dare not."
Her face felt hot and painful. Concubine Shu must know something, otherwise she wouldn't have calculated it so accurately. Ruan Jun cursed to herself that it was bad luck. She wanted to avoid it but was still discovered.
Her timid look completely changed its meaning in the eyes of Concubine Shu:
"Why are you so nervous? Did you do something shameful? Did you steal property from the palace?"
