In the dimly lit room, Feng Tian'er lay on the bed with a pale face, covered with a quilt. Under the quilt, she was wearing a sexy thin shirt and transparent clothes, waiting for Nangong Tianlan's arrival.
"Trample, tramp, tramp!" A sound of footsteps could be heard in the quiet space. Feng Tian'er immediately restrained the sinister aura in her body and became sickly and looked like she had no strength at all. I felt pity for her.
Just hidden under the quilt, in the clenched palm, lying quietly was a beautiful sachet.
And inside, there are spices mixed with "Albizia Julibrissin"!
The five fingers gradually tightened, biting the white akaclani fiercely.
Nangong Tianlan, you can't escape today... She will not accept her fate, her destiny must be in her own hands.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
There was a knock on the door, followed by Doukou's voice.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here to visit you."
"Let the emperor come in."
Weak words came out of the room, mixed with coughs. Then, there was a slight noise from inside.
Doukou opened the door and saw Feng Tianer who was about to get up. Because she had no strength, the action of getting up looked very strenuous, and her face looked even paler because of the excessive effort.
When Feng Tianer saw Nangong Tianlan coming in, she hurried to get off the bed, but she accidentally fell off the bed.
"Ah!" He fell to the ground along with the quilt. His hand was scratched by the edge of the bed.
"Empress!" Doukou shouted anxiously and immediately ran to Feng Tianer, trying to help her up.
Seeing this, Nangong Tianlan strode forward, pushed Doukou away, picked Feng Tianer up by the waist, and put her back on the bed.
"If you don't feel well, you don't have to get out of bed. How can you be so careless?" Nangong Tianlan's tone today was particularly gentle. In a trance, Feng Tianer had an illusion. It was as if they had returned to the first time they met.
At the beginning, he was so gentle to her, to the point that she lost herself...
But later, thinking of the subsequent scenes, Feng Tianer returned to reality and continued acting.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty wants to pay respects to His Majesty... But... But..." Feng Tian'er spoke intermittently, her eyes gradually becoming red and misty. Her pale face looked pitiful. She was a weak woman, without any of the spirit that a woman in a country of women's supremacy should have.
This is still worthy of praise in Nangong Tianlan's eyes. This shows that he has completely conquered this woman and won her heart.
"Okay, why do you need to be so polite to me? Just lie down and take good care of yourself. Don't forget, you are my queen and you have to manage the harem for me." He gently put Feng Tian'er on the bed and said softly. While talking, he covered her with a quilt, just like a good husband.
But only they themselves know that he is pretending, and she is pretending too. Each of them is performing their own drama carefully for their own purpose. In the palace, for people like them, this is their most common attitude towards life. If you think about it carefully, it is also very tiring.
He lowered his head, reached out, took out the sachet in his hand, then grabbed Nangong Tianlan's hand and placed it in his palm.
"Your Majesty, this sachet was sewn by me, and it contains my love and prayers for Your Majesty. My hands are clumsy, and I can't embroider it well, so I hope Your Majesty won't dislike it." Every word she spoke sounded full of deep affection for Nangong Tianlan, and it was very touching.
It has to be said that the women in the harem are all born with acting skills. Not to mention that they won't blush when they lie, even if they are exposed in front of others, they will not blush. Because they have no sense of shame.
Nangong Tianlan said nothing and hung the sachet around his waist.
Seeing that her goal was achieved, a dark light flashed across Feng Tianer's haggard face, but no one noticed.
Doukou, who was peeping outside the door, also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
Although there were various flowers and plants in the sachet, she still couldn't help but worry that Nangong Tianlan would notice something. Perhaps this was what they called a guilty conscience.
The medicinal properties of "Albizzia julibrissin" are very strong, but if it is evaporated in this way, it will reduce the harm to people.
The reason why she chose this method was not because Feng Tianer was soft-hearted and worried about hurting Nangong Tianlan's body, but because Nangong Tianlan was very careful in doing things and was very picky about food. She was from a country where women were superior, so she was not very good at cooking. Moreover, Nangong Tianlan would not eat even if she cooked for 90% of the time. Therefore, she could only choose the safest way, which was to use the sachet.
Sure enough, her idea was right.
After all, Nangong Tianlan was in the territory of Feng Country, and he would not disregard Feng Country's reputation, so he accepted it so readily. In addition, he claimed to be sick, and if he refused again, he would definitely go to the Queen to complain. Nangong Tianlan was not a person who would cause trouble for himself.
Although the effect of the "Albizia Julibrissin" would be delayed, it was not a big problem. She still had the ability to keep Nangong Tianlan for a few minutes.
However, man proposes, God disposes. Just then, Feng Xian'er sent someone to report.
"Your Majesty, the King of Feng State has sent someone to report that a banquet will be held in the Imperial Garden, and Your Majesty is sincerely invited to come and enjoy the occasion together." The shrill voice reported from another eunuch.
"I got it." After Nangong Tianlan said this, he immediately apologized to Feng Tianer, "Tianer, I was planning to spend more time with you, but it's hard to explain to the Queen, so, I'm sorry to have to trouble you today. Rest well, and I will come to see you as soon as I come back." After he finished speaking, Nangong Tianlan immediately stood up and walked out.
Feng Tian'er was stunned as soon as she heard the servant's report.
What on earth was the Queen doing? She didn't hold a banquet earlier or later, but had to wait until she took action.
The medicine has been taken, and within half an hour, the effect will take effect. What should she do now
When Feng Tianer came back to her senses, Nangong Tianlan had already walked to the door. Feng Tianer was so anxious that she shouted unconsciously, "Your Majesty!"
Nangong Tianlan turned around, "Queen, what's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Looking at Nangong Tianlan's puzzled face, Feng Tianer didn't know what to say.
It's not right to let him go, nor is it right to keep him.
"No... It's okay..." In this situation, how could she let him stay? If she forced him to stay, it would only make him suspicious sooner. What should she do...
"Then I'll leave first and come back to see you. You should take a good rest."
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
Then Nangong Tianlan turned around and left her room.
"Empress!" As soon as Nangong Tianlan walked away, Doukou immediately ran in, looking anxious. "What should we do now?"
The medicine has been taken, and the effect will definitely take effect in half an hour, so when will the effect take effect...
Now Nangong Tianlan has gone to the palace. If he knew that they drugged him and made him look bad in front of everyone, the consequences would be...
I guess it’s not as simple as just losing her position as queen, it’s a capital crime.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Feng Tian'er suddenly hugged her head and kept repeating this sentence like crazy.
What should she do? She doesn’t want to die. What should she do
Looking at Feng Tianer's appearance, Doukou came up with a solution.
“My queen, how about we do this…” Doukou stepped forward and whispered in Feng Tianer’s ear.
After a while, Doukou stood up.
"Okay, okay, let's do it this way. This is a good idea. Although it goes against my original intention, it is the best solution for the current situation." After hearing Doukou's words, Feng Tian'er's gloomy face improved a little. "Just do as you said. Remember, there must not be any mistakes, otherwise, we will all die!"
"I know, Madam, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well!"
"Okay, I feel relieved with your words." Feng Tian'er turned around, took out a golden plate from under her pillow, and handed it to Doukou, "Doukou, take this, this is the gold plate for entering the palace. With this, you can enter and leave any part of the palace freely, which will be convenient for you to do things."
"Thank you for your grace, Madam. I will leave now."
"Well, go ahead."
As the sky gradually darkened, red lanterns were hung high in the palace, and there was singing and dancing.
In the imperial garden, the ministers and nobles who were supposed to arrive had already arrived. They drank tea and wine, watched dances and listened to music, and the scene was prosperous and peaceful.
Feng Xian'er sat in the main seat, smiling broadly, and seemed to be in a very good mood.
That's right, she thought that with Shangguan Yunxiao as her helper, she would have no worries and was naturally more at ease.
In fact, half of the purpose of today's banquet is for Shangguan Yunxiao. Because today, she has to announce something very important, which is related to the future of Feng Country. It just so happens that both Emperors Tianze and Tianqi are here, so they can be witnesses.
And according to his observations over the past few days, the Tianze King is very fond of Shangguan Yunxiao. And Nangong Tianlan's intentions are also known to everyone.
Just in case, remember to resolve this matter today, so that these people won't stay in Feng Country and refuse to leave. It's not that she can't afford to support these people, but they are not ordinary people. Living in Feng Country for a long time always makes her feel uneasy.
"Emperor Tianze has arrived!" A report from the eunuch in charge came from a distance.
Immediately afterwards, Nangong Tianlan appeared in everyone's sight, but before he could attract everyone's attention for too long, the notification continued to sound.
"King Tianze has arrived! Prince Yun has arrived!"
Immediately afterwards, a man and a woman came out together.
Ling'er was wearing a purple emerald veil, a pleated skirt with a scattering of flower mist, and a thin emerald veil. Her shoulders were cut into waistlines, her skin was as white as cream, and her breath was as faint as orchids. She had clear and affectionate eyes, cherry lips as red as flowers, skin as white as cream, eyebrows as black as ink, and she was charming and beautiful.
Although she still had a white veil covering her face, it couldn't hide her extraordinary temperament. (To be continued)
