Li Wan thought about it, and indeed, she had been eating well and sleeping well recently, taking various tonics every day, and was urged by the emperor to go to the parade ground to ride horses. Her previously soft and powerless body was now much looser and lighter than before.
When I looked in the mirror recently, I felt that my complexion looked better and no longer looked that sickly.
When Li Wan was eating, she was only focused on eating. After she finished eating, her mind immediately flew outside again. She stared at the emperor without saying a word, but only gave strong hints with her eyes.
The emperor poked her forehead with amusement and said, "What a promising future!" Then he stood up and said, "Let's go."
Li Wan hurriedly followed him out.
When we left the tent, it was already completely dark. However, the camping area was brightly lit. To prevent fire, the tents were separated by a certain distance, and the open flames outside were also guarded by someone in charge.
The enclosure was heavily guarded, with guards everywhere and soldiers patrolling. The emperor did not allow Cao Yu to go with them, but only took Li Wan with him, saying that they were going to take a walk around.
…
Some distance away from the tent, the noisy voices gradually died down and the lights became distant. Li Wan took two deep breaths of the fresh and sweet air, then sat down. The grass on the ground was lush and even felt soft when he sat on it.
The emperor looked at her in some surprise.
Li Wan simply lay down on his back on the grass, then patted the place beside him, motioning the emperor to lie down as well.
The emperor ascended the throne at the age of six. Too many eyes were watching him from the court and the harem. His every word and action was regulated. If he made the slightest mistake, he would be advised and restrained.
Although he now has the majesty of an emperor and no one will dictate his every word and action, over the years there is still an invisible rope restraining him, forcing him to follow the rules and not overstep the line.
He had never been as casual as Li Wan, lying on the ground.
Li Wan saw the emperor standing upright, looking at her in a daze, and stretched out her hand to him: "Come on, lying here is much more comfortable than standing."
The emperor hesitantly put his hand into Li Wan's, but she grabbed it, pulled him down, made him sit down, and then hesitantly lay down.
When the emperor was less than one year old, the previous emperor took him for the autumn hunt. From then on, he never missed a year.
But this was the first time since he was a child that he had looked at the sky above his head from this angle.
Li Wan didn't lie to him.
Lying down is indeed much more comfortable than standing.
He could still smell the mixed fragrance of grass and soil beneath him, the soft and cool grass leaves on his neck, and the wind blowing through the grass leaves and then blowing against his face.
The emperor lay on the ground, looking at the stars in the sky, and murmured: "There are so many stars. When I came here in previous years, there didn't seem to be so many stars."
Li Wan smiled, looked at the stars in the sky and said, "That may be because the emperor has not looked at them seriously in previous years."
The emperor thought about it carefully, and he really couldn't remember when he had ever looked seriously at the sky above his head.
This seemed to be the first time in all those years that he had looked at the stars so seriously, and he was lying on the grass.
The emperor's mouth corners rose slightly involuntarily, and then he turned his head to look at Li Wan who was lying beside him.
Her hair was buried in the soft grass leaves, her brows were relaxed as she looked at the sky, her eyes were soft and bright, with a slight smile on the corners of her mouth, and there seemed to be a hint of longing in her eyes.
The emperor suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable panic and unconsciously grabbed her hand and held it tightly.
Li Wan turned her head and looked at him with some confusion, asking questions with her eyes.
The emperor leaned over without saying a word and kissed her.
I can’t describe the fear and anxiety that surged in my heart at that moment.
It seemed as if she might leave at any moment.
She clearly said that she would stay with him forever.
Will never leave him.
Even if she wanted to, he wouldn't allow it.
After the emperor learned what a real kiss was in the carriage that afternoon, he was no longer satisfied with just the touching of lips. Once their lips touched, they could not be separated and his tongue went straight in. It was such an innocent and romantic scene, but he invaded it fiercely, as if he wanted to leave his mark on Li Wan again and again in order to suppress the inexplicable panic that was welling up in his heart.
"Don't even think about leaving me."
The fierce invasion gradually turned into gentleness.
The emperor touched Li Wan's face and kissed her lips again and again.
Li Wan's eyes were a little dazed and confused, and he had no idea what was going on.
The emperor suddenly came up and bit the tip of her nose, his eyes filled with such affection that it was enough to make one drown in it: "Little fool."
At this moment, the boy's confused and curious voice suddenly sounded above their heads.
"Brother Huang, Sister Wan, what are you doing?"
Li Wan and the emperor were both startled. When they turned around, they saw the King of Qi standing above them, with his head lowered, looking at them in surprise.
Li Wan and the emperor turned over and sat up at the same time.
The emperor was surprised and annoyed, and a little bit blamed him for coming to disturb him. He said unnaturally: "Yuan Rong, why are you here?"
The King of Qi immediately sat down like them and said, "I went to look for my brother and sister Wan, but Cao Yu said you guys went out to play together, so I came to look for you."
Just now, he saw two people lying here from a distance, and he deliberately waved away the palace servants, wanting to secretly scare them. Unexpectedly, when he walked in carefully, he saw them hugging each other...
The King of Qi opened his eyes full of curiosity and asked curiously, "Brother, what were you doing with Sister Wan just now? Why did you eat her mouth and bite Sister Wan's nose? Are you playing some game?"
The emperor's face suddenly became hot.
Li Wan was also embarrassed.
“…”
“…”
The scene fell into an eerie silence for a while.
The King of Qi looked at his royal brother, then at his younger sister, and suddenly said something shocking: "My royal brother has eaten younger sister's mouth, and Yuanrong wants to eat it too!" As he said that, he was about to come over.
The emperor's face suddenly darkened, and he stretched out his hand to stop the King of Qi: "Nonsense!"
The King of Qi was stopped by the Emperor, his face full of confusion and grievance: "Why can my brother eat sister Wan's mouth? But Yuan Rong can't?"
Li Wan felt so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it.
The emperor said with a dark face: "Because she is my future wife, your future sister-in-law."
Li Wan was stunned.
The King of Qi was also stunned for a moment, unable to react. When he came to his senses, he immediately looked unconvinced and said to the Emperor, "Brother, you lied to me! We said that when Yuan Rong grows up, I will let Sister Wan be my princess!"
As he spoke, he felt wronged and sad, and his eyes turned red.
The emperor frowned and said, "Nonsense, when did I ever say such a thing?" Then he said childishly, "Why don't you ask Li Wan if she is willing to be my queen or your princess consort."
Li Wan looked at the childish emperor in disbelief.
The King of Qi took it seriously, and immediately looked at her with red eyes, and said eagerly: "Sister Wan, are you willing to be my princess? I promise that I will treat you well! I will listen to you in the future, and I will give you everything in my palace. If anyone bullies you, I will go and avenge you!"
The emperor listened at the side. Even though he knew that Li Wan would not agree to the King of Qi, he still felt inexplicably nervous. He stared at Li Wan with his dark phoenix eyes without blinking, with a warning in his eyes.
Li Wan only glanced at him and then looked at King Qi. She suddenly held King Qi's hand with a gentle expression.
The emperor glared at her, but she pretended not to notice. She just focused on looking at the King of Qi and said, "Your Highness, I know you like me because you want me to play with you, but if you want to marry a princess, you should marry a girl you really like and who also likes you. You are still young now, and when you really grow up, you will meet that person. At that time, you can marry the person you like as your princess, and she will always be with you."
The King of Qi seemed to understand, then he lowered his head sadly, raised his eyes to look at her, then lowered them again, and said aggrievedly: "Sister Wan, don't you like Yuan Rong?"
Li Wan placed her hand on the King of Qi's face, lifted his face up, made him look directly at her, and then said in a gentle voice: "Of course I like Your Highness, but this kind of liking is the liking for a younger brother, just like Your Highness likes me, and treats me as a relative."
The King of Qi was a little confused.
I seemed to understand it, but not completely.
Li Wan smiled and said, "Your Highness, just know that I like you very much. As long as Your Highness wants, you can come and play with me at any time. I will always welcome Your Highness."
The King of Qi twisted his body, glanced at the Emperor, and complained, "But my brother never lets me play with you."
The emperor interrupted, "I want you to read more."
When it comes to studying, the King of Qi looks miserable.
He has a bad memory and it takes him half a month to memorize an article that others can memorize in a day.
The King of Qi pouted and said, "Yuan Rong hates reading."
Li Wan said: "I don't like reading either."
The King of Qi's eyes immediately lit up and he stared at her.
Li Wan smiled and said, “But many times, we have to do things we don’t like to do, and reading is one of them.”
The King of Qi suddenly became depressed again.
At this time the emperor said: "Okay, you go back first."
The King of Qi blinked and suddenly asked, "Can I eat Sister Wan's mouth in the future?"
He just saw his royal brother eating for a long time, and he even put his tongue into his younger sister's mouth to lick it, as if it was delicious.
The emperor's face suddenly darkened: "Of course not!"
The King of Qi pursed his lips in grievance: "My brother is so stingy."
The emperor's mouth twitched.
Li Wan explained to the King of Qi very seriously: "Your Highness, that is not eating lips, that is kissing. Only people who love each other can do such things."
The King of Qi was suddenly a little disappointed.
He really wanted to taste what Sister Wan's mouth tasted like.
The emperor's patience reached its limit. He stood up and called the palace servants who were far away to come over and take the Prince of Qi away.
Li Wan promised to ride with him tomorrow and even made a pinky promise. Only then did the King of Qi leave reluctantly.
Li Wan and Prince Qi are so close that the emperor is a little jealous.
He knew that King Qi was just a child. He just didn't like Li Wan's attention being taken away by others, and she showed such a gentle expression and smile to others. He didn't want to share her with anyone, not even his most beloved brother.
This possessiveness made the emperor suddenly pounce on Li Wan and knock her to the ground. The moment Li Wan fell, he put his hand behind her head in time to prevent her from bumping into it.
His handsome, delicate face hovered above hers, and before she could react, he kissed her viciously.
But soon, he retreated hastily, turned to the side, and even moved to the edge.
In the dim light, his handsome face was slightly red.
He…he’s like in the carriage again.
But this is outside, and I can't let Li Wan...
The more he thought about it, the more the emperor blushed.
Li Wan was about to sit up and ask him what was wrong when the emperor pushed him back.
"Don't move."
"Um?"
“Look at the stars.”
