Duan Changchuan had never felt this way before, as if everything in his dream had come true...
The man in front of him pressed on his glands, ruthlessly robbing him of his breath.
Pheromones continuously seep into the body from the mouth.
He was like a fish out of water. Even though he was about to suffocate, he still wanted to cling to the other person and want more.
Fortunately, Bai Su was very considerate of him throughout the kiss. She would slightly step back when they were entangled, and then fall back down after a breath.
When this long kiss ended, both of them were covered in sweat.
Duan Changchuan lay in bed, his mind blank.
Alpha got up from him, her jewelry jingling. His mind was still hazy, but his arms were already wrapped around her waist lovingly.
"Hmm... Bai Su..."
He heard his own voice calling out, hoarse and clingy.
But it doesn't matter, he wants her to hug him again.
The next moment, he was pulled up and fell into the Alpha's arms.
He heard the other person's chest beating strongly and his heavy breathing... He felt an unprecedented satisfaction in his heart.
…
The two hugged each other quietly, waiting until the brief heat of the deep kiss passed before reluctantly separating.
The boy came to his senses and felt embarrassed.
He was actually... completely pinned down by a woman, and was kissed until he felt dizzy... No, he was kissed until he lost consciousness!
He still clings to me and wants me to hold him...
What's even more terrifying is that he still wants to stick to Bai Su.
It's not necessary to hug her, I just want to have contact with her, even if it's just touching her clothes.
But he couldn't talk to anyone.
How to say it? Ask her: Can I hold your hand...
No, Duan Changchuan, you can't be so unreserved!
But Bai Su seemed to see through his thoughts. After tidying up his clothes, she naturally took his hand.
-
We went out together and the sun was already setting.
The red light hung on every leaf outside the yard, spreading golden light all over the ground.
Yun Xie and Feng Xian were sitting at a stone table with a bulging envelope on the table.
"You guys have come after the discussion?"
Yun Xie stood up and looked at their clasped hands.
The small movement was caught by the sensitive Omega, who looked at him "fiercely".
He quickly looked away to avoid suspicion.
"Well, I just received a visiting card from Lin Qing and Shu Ze. They want to meet with us and asked when they can be free these days. They should come to surrender to us. It depends on you. If you want to talk to him in person, we can agree on a time to take a day off and meet him. If you don't want to, then my aunt and I will go and talk to him."
Duan Changchuan subconsciously looked at Bai Su.
Coincidentally, the other person was looking at him, so he quickly looked away.
"Since he surrendered with Shuze, I will go and see him in person. There is no need to choose a day off. If I meet an official who happens to be on leave, it will be troublesome."
Yun Xie nodded: "Okay, then pick a date and tell me, I will go and reply to their invitations later."
"Let's do it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, after 15:00, at Yujin Building where we met last time."
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow, so as to avoid any more trouble."
-
After talking about Lin Qing, he talked about the bulging envelope on the table:
"General Rong has conducted a thorough investigation in the Huainan area and has now returned to the capital in secret. He will be able to present his case to the court tomorrow." Feng Yan said, pushing the envelope in front of Duan Changchuan: "This is from General Rong. Please have a look, Your Majesty."
Whenever he talked about state affairs, the young man changed his usual mild attitude and became serious, and the emperor's aura was particularly strong.
The young emperor opened the envelope, took out a thick stack of letter paper, and read it page by page.
[The Imperial Edict Minister went to Huainan to secretly investigate the disaster last year and Governor Chen’s disaster relief efforts. The following findings were made:]
[Last year, the disaster relief funds were extorted from all levels of government, and by the time they reached Huainan, less than one-tenth of the funds were left. The attached correspondence, totaling 5 pages, can confirm this.]
[Governor Chen was ordered by the Regent to provide disaster relief and conduct an investigation, but he accepted bribes of nearly 10 million taels and countless rare treasures. The details of the bribes he received from officials along the way have not yet been checked. However, the details of the bribes he received from local officials in Huainan are all listed on the paper, please have a look.]
[Also: The corpses in the Huainan burial pits totaled 30,000 victims. Coroner Chen found that the victims died in the winter of last year and the first month of this year. They were all new bodies, frozen to death or starved to death. When Governor Chen left Huainan, the crowds of people lining the streets to see him off were all false, as the people of Huainan were actually living in misery.]
There are 30,000 disaster victims.
Within two months, 30,000 people died... This was not even the death toll directly caused by the famine at the beginning.
How many people are there in the whole Huainan
There are only a few people in the entire Datong!
The boy's hands were shaking as he held the letter.
He gritted his teeth and ordered: "Investigate, continue investigating! From Shengjing to Shaoguan, from Shaoguan to Huainan, all the officials along the way, investigate them thoroughly! Within ten days, I will wipe out their nest!"
When he looked up again, both eyes were red.
Bai Su quickly held his hand tightly and gently comforted him on his back: "Don't be angry, don't be angry. How can you be angry now, little ancestor? If something happens, we will investigate it thoroughly. Those who deserve to be tortured to death will be tortured to death, and those who deserve to be torn to pieces will be torn to pieces. Don't get angry, what if you get angry and hurt yourself?"
The young man tightly grasped her hand, his voice trembling with anger: "They are all a bunch of beasts..."
Bai Su brushed his hair, held his cheek with her palm, asked him to face her, and said, "Yes, they are all beasts. But Duan Xiaochuan, these beasts are waiting for you to deal with them. If you get angry and sick, these beasts will become even more lawless, right?"
"How dare they! I will chop them all off!"
The child was still angry, and his eyes were red. He looked fierce, but in Bai Su's eyes, he looked very cute.
So cute.
When he spoke again, he unconsciously adopted a coaxing tone: "Okay, chop them all up. As long as you're not angry, anything is fine."
Ahem, I got a glare.
Fortunately, after her interruption, the child calmed down a lot and turned to discuss countermeasures with Feng Qian and the others.
"Let's not meet Lin Qing and Shu Ze tomorrow. Since they are here to surrender, let me see their sincerity. Tomorrow morning, I will let the Dali Temple Minister take charge, and Lin Qing and Shu Ze will assist us. Let's go to Shaoguan together to investigate the clues laid by the Regent."
Feng Yu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, isn't this too risky? This line is very important to us. If we can get rid of it in one fell swoop, the wavering officials and loyal old officials in the court will all stand on our side."
The young man shook his head: "With Rong Wu here, we have already found a few clues. The Dali Temple Shaoqing is also in Shaoguan. Unless Lin Qing and the other two are deliberately holding us back, nothing will go wrong."
"Then let's do as your majesty wishes. Yun'er and I will continue to secretly protect the evidence that General Rong has already found."
"Trouble aunt."
"It's all Feng Xian's job."
After they finished talking, the sun finally set.
Without the sunshine, the temperature around gradually dropped sharply.
Feng Yu suggested: "Why don't we go inside? Your Majesty, do you want to stay for dinner? I have specially asked someone to prepare meals suitable for pregnant women. If Your Majesty is hungry, you can serve the food right away."
So the two of them had another meal at the Sitianjian.
Before leaving, Feng Yu gave them a can of pickled plums, saying that they were for Duan Changchuan to chew on.
On the way back, the palace servants walked in front holding lanterns, and Bai Su walked side by side with him, holding the food rations for the new "pregnant man" in both hands.
Along the way, Duan Changchuan looked at the pottery jar in Bai Su's hand from time to time.
I can’t really put my finger on what’s weird about it, but it just feels weird.
As he was walking, the person next to him suddenly stopped and asked him with a smile: "Do you want to eat?"
He stood up straight immediately, looking straight ahead: "I don't have any."
The next moment, the scent of peony and rouge approached together, and a sour-sweet plum was stuffed into his mouth.
Turning around, the woman was looking at him with a smile: "I just washed my hands before leaving, so they're not dirty. How is it, is it delicious?"
Duan Changchuan's heart suddenly started beating faster.
He seemed to know what was wrong...
Normally, he would have servants behind him, and gifts from others never passed through his hands. People close to him would never help him carry gifts from others... Not to mention the Queen Mother, even Changle would hand the gifts directly to Yiman, and then send someone to deliver them back to the Mingsheng Temple.
Only Bai Su would do this, holding a can of his snacks and walking all the way from the Sitianjian back to the Mingsheng Temple.
I will feed him one on the way.
He didn't know how to describe this feeling... It seemed like this should be just an ordinary little thing, but he still felt his eyes warm.
The young emperor, who grew up in the deep palace and didn't know how to express himself, shyly turned his head away, not daring to meet the other's burning eyes.
He whispered awkwardly, "I borrow flowers to offer to Buddha... You sound like you prepared it for me."
The man suddenly stood in front of him, blocking him and scratching the tip of his nose.
"I understand, my little ancestor. I'll prepare it for you next time, okay?"
She said with a smile, her tone as indulgent as always.
The boy's face was hot and he quickly held her wrist: "You...be more reserved, many people are watching."
After saying that, he glanced around nervously.
Unexpectedly, the woman did not follow the usual path. She directly handed the jar of plums to Changle, took a few steps forward, and asked for a lantern from the eunuch who was leading the way.
In a flash, she came towards him holding a bright red lantern.
With a smile on her lips, she asked him, "Your Majesty, do you want to have a date together?"
"What's the meaning?"
He asked subconsciously.
"Just let them all back off, and just the two of us, walk around and take a stroll."
-
So, in just a moment, the two of them left behind the neat team of attendants, leaving only Changle by their side, following not too close nor too far away.
The Shengjing Imperial Palace is huge... This is where Duan Changchuan grew up.
He knew every tree and blade of grass here very well, but today was the first time he took a walk so focused and aimlessly.
The woman holding the lantern held his hand all the way, walking through the courtyard full of pink peach blossoms and green willows, and through the corridors with carved railings and painted buildings.
Finally, he took him to a rockery by the lake.
"Come on, be careful. Slow down."
As the woman spoke, she used the lantern to light the way for him.
In a blink of an eye, the two reached the top.
A night without light pollution, surrounded by stars.
The lake reflected at your feet sparkles like scattered stars all over the lake.
"How beautiful." Bai Su sighed: "In our world, these are gone. The lights at night are too bright, and the air is not so clean... It has been a long time since I saw so many stars."
The young man looked at the lake in the distance and blinked: "But, that world is very grand. I think it is very grand... like a peaceful and prosperous era."
Then he turned around and asked her, "In such a prosperous era, tens of thousands of people wouldn't die all at once due to famine, right?"
Bai Su nodded: "Yes, famine is very rare now. But not every place in the world is so prosperous. There are also backward countries where people can't eat or drink water."
"But it's all going to be okay, right?"
The boy looked at her with clear eyes.
Bai Su actually has a lot to say, about war, about human behavior, about emotions, and about consciousness.
But the moment I saw the boy's eyes, I suddenly felt that none of this mattered anymore.
"Well, everything will be fine," she said. "At least the land we are in will be fine."
"I saw thousands of mansions."
"Well, there are tens of thousands, even millions of mansions... You know, although we can't see the stars in our world, we can fly to the sky and step on the stars."
"Ah? How can I step on such small stars? Are you deceiving me again?"
"Duan Xiaochuan, is there something wrong with you? I have never lied to you before, so why don't you trust me? I am going to scratch you."
As he said this, he touched the child all over openly.
"You... Hahaha, don't tickle me! I believe you, I will always believe you from now on, haha..."
"It's too late, Duan Xiaochuan."
“Haha…hahahaha…”
…
The evening breeze is blowing.
In the pavilion by the lake, the boy’s suppressed laughter finally turned into a small plea for mercy: “Stop scratching, stop scratching… I know I was wrong.”
"Then let me kiss you."
The woman blew gently into his ear.
The young man was already weak from the beating and almost fell down.
Fortunately, a pair of strong hands embraced him, and then took a step forward and pushed him against the stone pillar of the pavilion.
In the deserted night, the red candle in the lantern emits a flickering light.
A trembling shadow is left on the carved pavilion.
"baby."
She called him.
"Hmm..." The young man's voice trembled, and he raised his hand to gently cover his eyes: "Don't call me like that..."
A pair of hands held my wrists, forcing me to reveal my shy eyes.
"Will you kiss me?" she asked.
Her fingertips gently caressed his lips.
The atmosphere is becoming more and more ambiguous.
The woman took another step forward and inserted one foot between his tightly closed toes. Suddenly, they were so close that they could even feel each other's breath...
She's really... good at it.
After a long time, the hesitant boy finally lowered his beautiful eyes and nodded slightly.
[Give…]
Then, the fragrance of rouge and peony filled the air.
…
The scent of rouge and pheromones falls into my nose together...
As their lips and tongues entangled, it seemed as if their whole bodies were immersed in each other's peony fragrance.
…
After a long time, Alpha finally let him go.
The woman looked at him deeply with her narrow and beautiful eyes and said, "Duan Changchuan, do whatever you want to do boldly. Lin Qing and Shu Ze will stand by your side."
The young man panted slightly: "How do you know... Lin Qing will stand on my side."
"Because the love of his life died in this political game. He will take revenge."
Duan Changchuan's eyes widened immediately: "You... You mean, you've already told him? He believes you?"
But how could Lin Qing easily believe her story of reincarnation
After all, Bai Su made him believe it because of the pheromones that made him pregnant, and the bizarre dreams he had every day.
Why did Lin Qing believe it
The woman just stared at him quietly for a while, then put her fist to her lips, let out a low laugh, and said, "Yes, he recognized that I was not Bai Su when he first saw me."
She said, "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you and can't recognize their partner?"
Duan Changchuan suddenly:
I was completely stunned.
Then, his eyes opened wide and his cheeks became round.
Get angry out of shame.
[First, she said I was stupid! ]
[Second, I seem to have... eaten a lot of unnecessary jealousy! ]
Then, Bai Su received a small punch on the shoulder.
It was neither light nor heavy, like a small animal with a chubby head and a fierce body. It was angry, but also a bit coquettish.
She smiled, grasped the boy's fist, moved closer, and looked at him carefully... and asked, "Are you angry, huh?"
"No… "
"Really? Why do I always feel like you're angry?"
"Did you say that?"
"Really?"
“You’re so annoying!”
[Poof...]
[But, you are really cute.]
