Sun Yue'er was so frightened that she subconsciously wanted to call someone, but she was relieved when she saw the other person's face clearly.
"Brother Xiaobao, why are you here now?"
She turned over and rubbed her face on the quilt, but she still felt extremely sleepy, muttering something, and fell asleep again.
The bedroom was dark, except for a night light on the corner of the wall. The hazy yellow light was dim, and when it reached the bed, it became very faint, but it still allowed people to see the beautiful woman on the bed. .
She was only wearing a scarlet tulle, her long hair was loose behind her, and the string on her jade neck was faintly exposed. Especially at the beginning of summer, it was getting hot, she didn't cover her quilt properly, she only covered half of her body, but she was riding sideways on top, revealing half of her well-proportioned jade legs.
Under the dim light, the jade legs were astonishingly white and perfectly shaped, which made people want to peek deeper.
Zhao Chen was inexplicably thirsty, and couldn't help reaching out and touching it.
She felt a little itchy, and reached out to block him: "Let me sleep for a while, I'm sleepy." The voice was soft and waxy, with a coquettish ending, as if she was acting like a baby.
Zhao Chen couldn't bear it and leaned up, sucking and biting her exposed earlobe: "Who told you to wear such a suit, you are here alone today, if someone else comes, it won't be seen by others."
Sun Yue'er was a little out of breath under his pressure, turned over with difficulty and pushed him, but her eyes still did not open: "It's not about those nuns, they are annoying, they have tormented me all day, I wanted to replace them, too I didn’t change if I was tired.”
"You don't need to change it, it's very good, and reward them alone after returning to the palace."
Zhao Chen stared at the beautiful scenery in front of him with burning eyes. When he was a child, he couldn't understand why his father, who was always cold and cold, changed his style of painting when he met his mother. Now he finally understands. It was a kind of restlessness rising from the bottom of his bones, wanting to hold her like this all the time.
He also did this and that, and couldn't help covering the peony with his big palm on the butterfly playing peony.
She hurt a little from being rubbed by him, opened her eyes and pushed him: "What are you doing?"
Zhao Chen's voice changed a bit: "What do you say I want to do?"
At this time, Sun Yue'er was not the ignorant girl she was coaxed to eat, especially when there was something behind her, which immediately made her drowsy.
She subconsciously reached out to push him, and struggled to sit up, but she bumped into him somewhere, and he groaned in pain and fell on the couch.
Sun Yue'er was taken aback, and for some reason recalled what Mammy Jiaoxi had said about men being very fragile. She recalled it for a while, and wondered if she bumped into him, she was at a loss and wanted to call for someone, but was held back by Zhao Chen.
"You can't call someone."
"What can I do then, are you okay?"
"You rub it for me, and I won't hurt anymore." He said, his subordinates were dishonest, when Sun Yue'er reacted and wanted to shake off his hand, but he turned over and crushed her.
…
By the time Zhao Chen came out of Yue'er's boudoir, it was almost four o'clock.
He was familiar with the road all the way and returned along the same route as the roof.
Zhao Chen practiced martial arts at the age of five, although he is slender and does not look as burly and strong as ordinary martial arts practitioners, he is actually a master.
He stepped on the courtyard wall, and was about to turn out of this small courtyard, when suddenly a man's cold snort sounded in his ear.
He looked back subconsciously, and there was a tall man standing on the roof not far away. This person stood with the backlight, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but he seemed to be his father-in-law in terms of outline and attire.
Zhao Chen's foot became unsteady and he slid down the courtyard wall. The man's gaze was slightly fixed, and it took him a while to see this figure appearing in the distance, and he left quickly.
In the main courtyard, Sun Meng kept pacing back and forth since he came back, and scolded angrily: "It's really outrageous, it's outrageous!"
Seeing her husband like this, Mrs. Qiao on the couch couldn't help laughing: "Well, they're getting married soon anyway."
"It doesn't work even if you're about to get married! Isn't it that you haven't got married yet? You don't come until the second watch, and you don't leave until the fourth watch. You don't take me, the father-in-law, seriously!"
"If you hadn't let him in, would Xiaobao have come in silently?"
Sun Meng stifled, "Then I didn't let him go until the fourth watch. No, I have to go to Yue'er to see what that kid has done."
Qiao was choked up, so she hurriedly got down and grabbed him: "Don't worry about it, if you really go, will our daughter see anyone? Xiaobao is not ignorant of the severity, besides, you still don't care. If you don't believe in Yue'er's behavior, she won't act recklessly."
"Lonely man and widow, living in the same room, even if I trust our daughter, but I can't trust that kid!"
"Okay, okay, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and besides, you were never young, you forgot that you were..." After that, Qiao blushed and didn't say anything. He was obviously in his thirties, but he was ashamed and said nothing. There is a little daughter's coquettish attitude.
Sun Meng also recalled the past, coughed twice to cover it up, and naturally felt ashamed to scold his future son-in-law again.
…
In the house of Lighting Workshop, Xiao Anzi was sitting on the footsteps in front of the couch, waiting to fall asleep.
Hearing movement, he hurriedly stood up: "Your Highness, you are finally back."
When he got closer, he realized that there was some dust on the black clothes of His Highness the Crown Prince, and a patch was scratched: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you, are you injured?" Xiao Anzi asked anxiously.
Zhao Chen blocked his outstretched hand, and said impatiently: "Okay, I'm fine, I just accidentally tore my clothes, I have to take a bath for Gu, and I can sleep for a while, and I have to go to the Imperial Academy tomorrow morning. "
But it was obviously a fall.
But Xiao Anzi wouldn't say that, he could only sigh in his heart, His Highness really had a deep affection for the Crown Princess, even if he fell to see her in the middle of the night, he still felt fine.
But in the end, Emperor Jin'an knew about it.
He knew it all, so Yaoniang naturally knew it too.
"You said this kid, who is usually very stable, can do such a shameful thing." Jin'an Emperor said in a disgusted tone.
Now in his early forties, he is almost the same as when he first came to the throne, his figure is still slender and straight, except that he has a little silver hair on his temples due to working hard all day in political affairs.
But these silver threads not only do not make it look old, but also add a bit of charm and experience that a mature man should have.
And Yaoniang, who was sitting across from him, was even more favored by the heavens. She is in her thirties this year, at the time when women are in full bloom and charm. If those young girls are budding flowers, she is a precious peony in full bloom.
Every frown and smile are pictures, and no one in the palace will say that the empress is more beautiful than in previous years.
This most honorable couple in the world probably didn't know that the same conversation had also been staged in the Zhen Guogong's mansion. One dislikes, one protects, and when the matter develops to the end, it will naturally end with the son following Lao Tzu.
The empress and the empress are arguing, and the palace people in Kunning Palace are no strangers to it. This is a small affair between the empress and the empress, but let alone it is really envious of the world. Seeing the empress on the kang getting closer and closer, the palace servants standing in the palace retreated hurriedly.
At this time, there was a sound of jingling bells, and Yaoniang hurriedly reached out to push Emperor Jin'an. But it was still too late, Changle had already barged in.
The 12-year-old Changle has already shown the posture of a little beauty, with watery almond eyes, a straight nose, curved willow eyebrows, and a smile. She was wearing a summer gown with two breasts embroidered with cherry pink orchid grass, and a white satin horse-face skirt, with only two leaf orchids embroidered on the corner of the skirt. She was wearing a double-ringed hair bun, and the pair of silk-wrapped white jade gourd earrings followed her steps. Swaying, sweet and playful.
At her feet was a snow-white pug, who was the owner of the bell. This dog named Fuzi has been raised by Changle for more than ten years. Because he has been raised well, he has not yet shown his old age.
Zhao Changle didn't expect that she came at the wrong time, but she has encountered this kind of scene many times, so naturally she will not panic, but turn her back very considerately. After Emperor Jin'an gave a light cough, she turned her head with a smile and called out to her father, queen and queen.
"Why are you running in such a hurry?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Changle remembered his grievance just now, and hurriedly snuggled up to his mother's side.
"Mother, I just met a pretty boy in the palace. He bumped into me and ran away without apologizing to me."
In the palace, pretty boy
Yaoniang couldn't help turning her eyes to Emperor Jin'an.
Emperor Jin'an pondered for a while, and said: "If I'm not mistaken, he must be the only son of the King of Yunnan. Now there is only such a boy of suitable age in the palace."
The prince's big wedding is a day of celebration for the whole country, and envoys from all countries come here, so it is natural for all the vassals to come to Beijing to congratulate. Although Yunnan is now the territory of Dagan, Yunnan is located in the southwestern border area, with complex terrain, too many local barbarians and cultural barriers, beyond the reach of the imperial court, so the only way to control the barbarians is to set up chieftains in the local area.
And the king of Yunnan is the highest chieftain official in the area, and he is also a vassal recognized by the court.
The King of Yunnan is a hereditary system, inherited from generation to generation by the Yue clan of Dali. The Yue clan has always been loyal to Dagan. Both the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Jin'an valued him very much, so they allowed the King of Yunnan to live in the palace.
The current king of Yunnan, Yue Yu, is twenty-seven years old, and has a son who is ten years old, just in line with Zhao Changle's words of a pretty boy.
"That's right, that boy's clothes don't look like those of us." Chang Le didn't realize that Emperor Jin'an had squinted his eyes, and he was very happy to sue. But Yaoniang came to her senses and hurriedly pulled her daughter secretly.
"Changle, have you gone to Ganxi No. 5 Institute again?"
Ganxi No. 5 is in the same direction as Jingshengzhai where the king of Yunnan lived, Zhao Changle could only go to Ganxi No. 5 to meet that so-called pretty boy.
Sure enough, Chang Le pursed her mouth and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother are all there, and I'm going to look for them too." Seemingly a little guilty, she stomped her feet and said, "Brother, they all live in the same place, and I live alone. In Jingtian Zhai, they didn't play with me either, because I was bored..."
After all the words are said, Emperor Jin'an and Yaoniang naturally can't continue to condemn, not to mention that as the three brothers Zhao Chen grew up, Changle naturally became lonely as a daughter. She can't do what the boys can do, and she can only learn from the maids and nuns all day long, so it's no wonder she gets bored.
"Your eldest brother will get married soon, many people have come to the palace recently, it's just normal, it's better not to run around these days." Yao Niang said.
Changle nodded.
After Changle left with Fuzi, Yaoniang sighed: "I don't blame Changle, she is indeed lonely."
Emperor Jin'an glanced at her: "If we don't have another princess?" He missed his daughter very much when she was young, following his legs tenderly, crying left and right. It's a pity that when the daughter grows up, she won't cling to her father anymore. At that time, Emperor Jin'an was depressed for a while.
"Who will have a baby with you! I don't want to have a baby with you." Yao Niang spat with a red face.
The man's handsome face came closer, his phoenix eyes fluctuated, the middle-aged Emperor Jin'an was more attractive than the young him, Yaoniang's heart beat every time he got closer.
"If you don't want to have a baby with me, then who do you want to have a baby with!" He narrowed his narrow, dark phoenix eyes.
"Yeah, you're naughty, you're not serious, your son is getting married soon."
"You think I'm old?"
With a soft hum, the bead curtains on the doffing hood and the tulle curtains were all knocked down by Emperor Jin'an with something, covering up the scenery behind. This bead curtain is tightly worn, and it is rarely put down at ordinary times, and it is only used at certain times.
At the end of the bead curtain hang jade bells the size of little fingers, and when the wind blows, there will be a crisp tinkling sound. At this time, with the shaking, the clear and crisp sound can be heard endlessly, and the coquettish moaning behind the curtain is naturally hidden.
On the contrary, the occasional begging for mercy, "Your Majesty's bravery is undiminished", made all the palace people standing outside the door blush with embarrassment.
Don't look at what Chang Le said to her parents, in fact, she has long planned to seek revenge on that pretty boy. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Kunning Palace to file a complaint in order to find out who that pretty boy is.
In fact, Chang Le didn't say anything, that brat not only didn't apologize for bumping into her, but also called her ugly. Changle has always thought of herself as a little beauty, and she is indeed a little beauty recognized in the palace, how can people say that!
She left the Kunning Palace on her front foot, sent Fuzi back to the Jingtian Zhai located behind the Kunning Palace, and then went to Qianxi Wusuo.
The maid Qing'er pulled her and persuaded her: "Princess, your empress and Your Majesty have already told you not to wander around."
"You don't know if you don't say that the father and the queen are not."
"That won't work either." Qing'er burst into tears.
"Then you go back, just pretend you don't know where I've gone." Saying that, Chang Le left Qing'er and ran away.
Qing'er had no choice but to follow.
