Chapter 8 Both Are Satisfied
It was as if a frightened little bird had landed in her head, disoriented and lost. The silk curtains were gently lifted, and the young and handsome king appeared before her. Xu Lanshan subconsciously half-rose, hugged the quilt, and smiled softly at him: "Your Majesty!"
Emperor Yuan Yong was stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The beauty under the moon is beautiful because of the setting and the dim light that makes it hard to see clearly, which hides her flaws perfectly and creates a sense of artistic beauty.
Emperor Yuan Yong did not expect that when he saw her clearly now, this woman was even more beautiful than what he saw last night!
Her skin was so fair and delicate that it seemed as if it could be blown away by a baby's. Her delicate hands, in particular, seemed to be nervously clutching the quilt. The finest imperial silk was eclipsed by the beauty of her hands. Her beautiful, watery eyes shone timidly, making one's heart soften and feel pity.
Emperor Yuan Yong chuckled as he sat down, leaning over the couch and gently embracing Xu Lanshan in his arms. Looking at the woman's charming eyes, he couldn't help but chuckle and asked, "Are you scared? Hmm?"
Xu Lanshan's eyes flickered, her large, watery eyes were unusually bright, and a smile spread across her lips: "Your Majesty...will you make this concubine feel scared?"
Emperor Yuan Yong was startled, then burst into laughter. He glanced at her and curled his lips slightly: "I didn't know that my beloved concubine had such a temper!"
Xu Lanshan covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this, becoming even more charming and charming: "Your Majesty is making fun of me!"
She didn't seem like this when he first met her. Apart from those incredibly beautiful hands, he had no other impression of her. He had never expected her to be such a wonderful person! Emperor Yuan Yong's heart moved, and with a low smile, he took her into his arms...
After a long time, the clouds and rain finally dissipated, and both of them were very satisfied.
Emperor Yuan Yong was not only satisfied but also surprised.
Usually, concubines who slept with him for the first time were rarely not nervous. For Emperor Yuan Yong, it was not much fun, at most it was a novelty. However, after a few novelties, there was nothing new about it.
Even the concubines who had been with him for years, though no longer nervous, were still less interested. No one could truly let loose in his presence. Even the most domineering concubines would become gentle and attentive once they reached the throne. For this reason, Emperor Yuan Yong rarely enjoyed visiting the harem.
But tonight he was really surprised. He had never experienced such a satisfying feeling before.
He didn't know how to describe it accurately, but it was just right and perfect in every way.
Emperor Yuan Yong was in such a good mood that he hugged Xu Lanshan and was reluctant to let her leave.
Xu Lanshan was also quite satisfied. Everyone has needs, so it could be said to be a win-win situation. That was what she thought anyway.
Moreover, this is the most noble man in the world, the undisputed top star in the world. She won him over like this, and not only does she not have to pay, the top star will even give her money. Where else can you find such a thing?
She knew that he must be satisfied with her. Afterwards, when he held her in his arms, as if he cherished her very much, Xu Lanshan's heart suddenly felt subtly soft, and she curled her lips unconsciously.
She could allow herself to enjoy the tenderness of the moment, but her mind remained clear.
In this palace, you can compete for favor, you can enjoy wealth and splendor with peace of mind, you can show your admiration and love for the emperor, but you must never be tempted, because that is an abyss from which there is no escape.
Xu Lanshan gently nudged Emperor Yuan Yong and called softly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Hmm?" Emperor Yuan Yong, half asleep and enjoying himself, was slightly annoyed by being called. But he wasn't angry about it. Instead, he smiled and kissed the smooth and delicate forehead of the woman in his arms: "What's wrong?"
Xu Lanshan raised her eyelids slightly and smiled playfully: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten? I should go back to Cuiyinxuan."
However, not everyone is eligible to stay overnight at the Qianyuan Palace after serving the emperor. Only those of the fourth rank or above can stay with the emperor's permission. Those below the rank of noble are not eligible, even if the emperor wishes to stay.
Of course, if a ruler is tyrant and insists on being absurd and not following the rules, he himself is the rule, and others dare not say anything.
After all, no one is so stubborn that he would rather make the tyrant unhappy than lose his own head.
But Emperor Yuan Yong was not a tyrant.
Naturally, he would not disobey these palace rules.
After hearing what Xu Lanshan said, he felt a little regretful, but he didn't keep her any longer. He gently tapped her small nose with his slender index finger and chuckled: "She is quite sensible and lovable."
"Your Majesty!" Xu Lanshan suppressed her shyness and snuggled into his arms, and punched his chest with her little fists coquettishly, making him laugh happily.
I was reluctant to part with her to begin with, and now I’m even more reluctant!
Emperor Yuan Yong hugged her tightly and kissed her twice, "Be good, I will visit you again tomorrow."
"Yes!" Xu Lanshan nodded happily, and added: "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is fine. Your Majesty, please don't forget me."
"Hahaha, I can't forget it!"
"Your Majesty, I will remember your words in my heart. Your Majesty, please do not tease me."
Emperor Yuan Yong was delighted. "You're so arrogant! Who gave you the guts to do that?"
Xu Lanshan winked at him, playfully and cleverly saying, "Of course it was given by the Emperor!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed loudly.
The two of them cuddled for quite a while before Xu Lanshan finally got off the dragon bed smoothly. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Oh, pleasing the emperor was such a difficult job, it took so much effort.
Emperor Yuan Yong specifically summoned Eunuch Dong and instructed him, "It's a cool evening. Tell someone to escort Concubine Xu back safely."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Dong agreed quickly. He couldn't help but glance at Xu Lanshan. His heart skipped a beat at her radiant appearance. He thought to himself, "This is incredible! This is incredible!" He didn't expect that Song Ronghua would have such a talented person by his side.
He had never seen the emperor so happy after sleeping with his master.
If everything performs normally and nothing unexpected happens, the good days of Concubine Xu are still ahead!
Eunuch Dong asked someone to bring a brand new cloak and personally gave instructions to the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair. He watched the nanny help Xu Lanshan get on the sedan chair, then turned around and entered the hall.
Emperor Yuan Yong also ordered: "Tomorrow, select two sets of jewelry, six rolls of new brocade, and a few rare ornaments and send them to Cuiyinxuan."
He thought for a moment and said, "I remember that I have a pair of jade bracelets in my private storehouse that were tributed from the Western Regions last year. They have a nice water content and will definitely look great on Xu Changzai's wrist. I'll find them and give them to him."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Eunuch Dong was amazed. The pair of jade bracelets were indeed top-grade. The jade was smooth and flawless, and as clear as a pool of clear water. It would surely look stunning on Xu Chang's hands.
But how could Xu Changzai, a woman of such status, be worthy of such a precious thing? Moreover, he still remembered that last year, Concubine Lian had asked the Emperor for this pair of jade bracelets, but the Emperor refused to give them to her. If Concubine Lian knew about this, she would be very angry...
