Chapter 397

"Fine, I am indeed quite tired recently."

Li Chen nodded slightly, accepting Yu Jing's invitation to the inner room.

Especially in this situation, the feeling of stealing could make people feel more stimulated.

Upon hearing Li Chen's permission, Yu Jing was ecstatic, and a flush of excitement appeared on her face.

Li Chen didn't actually intend to think crookedly, but her actions were indeed too tempting; perhaps she didn't even know it herself.

Fearing that Li Chen would go back on his word, Yu Jing hurriedly made a gesture of invitation to Li Chen, and then followed behind Luo Xi and Li Chen as they left.

"Thanks to my wife!"

Long after Li Chen left, Qiu Zuo patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief, secretly giving a thumbs-up in his heart to Yu Jing, who had remained calm in the face of danger.

Facing Li Chen, this emperor, even if the other party was easygoing, Qiu Zuo still felt like he was facing a great mountain. If it weren't for his wife, Yu Jing, presiding over the big picture, he feared he would have harmed the entire Qiu family.

Thinking to the end, Qiu Zuo secretly decided to properly thank his wife, and intended to go to the Treasure Pavilion himself, determined to buy the hairpin his wife used to like most at any cost!

In his view, he was a rough man, and the servants were ignorant, so it was best to let his wife serve the emperor herself, so as not to make the emperor angry.

Of course, the "serving" he was thinking of now was just as simple as pouring tea and water.

On the other side, Li Chen had already been led by Yu Jing to the small courtyard she shared with Qiu Zuo.

As Li Chen was an emperor, they naturally had to offer the best of everything. Whether it was the furnishings in the room, the bedding, or even the flowers and plants in the courtyard, everything had long been renewed.

"Your Majesty, please rest first with the Imperial Consort. If you need dinner, just give a word to the servants waiting outside the courtyard."

Yu Jing bowed to Li Chen, making her cleavage even deeper.

In her view, this was just a very normal action. She thought to herself that as long as she left, if the emperor and the beauty beside him shared a room, it would prove that the emperor was a normal man.

At that time, she could send her daughter to the emperor. Her daughter would definitely not resist, nor would she dare to resist.

But Li Chen looked around; the servants had already moved away, and Master Qiu had long since run off somewhere. How could he not see such an obvious hint?

The next second, Yu Jing discovered that things were not as she had thought.

Li Chen took her waist and walked toward the bed, saying, "I have already understood your intentions, my lady."

Held in Li Chen's arms, Yu Jing felt her heart beating violently with her breathing for a moment.

She only wanted to see if Li Chen was fond of women, not to serve Li Chen herself.

Recalling everything that had just happened, she suddenly realized that her actions might have been seduction in the emperor's eyes.

One might ask, inviting the emperor into the room alone, and having just been so close, wasn't this clearly seducing the emperor?

The good news was that the emperor was indeed fond of women; the bad news was that the woman was herself.

Actually, this was a misunderstanding, but as a commoner, how could Yu Jing have the guts to refuse?

If the emperor were angry, the entire Qiuyue Villa would be destroyed, and blood would flow like a river.

Thinking this, Yu Jing couldn't help but lower her head secretly, her face flushed with a girlish crimson, and she began to let her imagination run wild: It wouldn't be bad if this Majesty misunderstood; she could just test whether this Majesty had emptied his body because of women for Qingxia's sake. Yes! Everything was for Qingxia!

Thinking that this was her and Qiu Zuo's room, Yu Jing felt a sudden sense of stimulation for no reason. While secretly scolding herself for being unchaste, she still tremblingly took off her thin gauze.

Li Chen observed everything being gradually stripped away and couldn't help but nod secretly. It had to be said that the contrast between Yu Jing's girlish shyness and her mature charm made him feel a stir of excitement.

Not long after, a symphony rang out in the room: "What, Your Majesty, move away, the mountain torrent is about to erupt!" "What, I'm dying, I'm really dying!" "What, this humble woman deserves to die, Your Majesty, finish me off."

Not until the horizon turned the color of a fish's belly did the courtyard gradually return to peace.

Yu Jing pulled open the door like a thief, glanced around to see no one, and then carefully walked out of the courtyard.

"My lady, you are so thoughtful to come and see His Highness so early."

Just as Yu Jing walked out of the courtyard, Qiu Zuo's smiling voice reached her ears.

This made Yu Jing tremble all over. She turned back blankly to look at Qiu Zuo and said, "It's fine, His Majesty just woke up. Don't go and disturb him at this time."

The commotion last night was not small, and it was only just now that the Majesty had finally let her go.

It seemed her husband still thought she had just arrived.

"Yes, yes, yes, my lady is right to teach me!" Qiu Zuo nodded and bowed repeatedly.

Seeing her husband's appearance, Yu Jing asked tentatively, "Where did you go yesterday?"

Because of that last sentence, her husband seemed not to know she hadn't returned to the room yesterday.

Qiu Zuo took out a hairpin and said, "My lady, wasn't I trying to prepare a surprise for you? I ran to Shanghe City overnight to buy this."

Seeing this, Yu Jing was moved and felt a bit guilty at the same time. She was still trying to trick her husband, while her husband was truly expressing his gratitude to her.

Oh well, she would treat her husband well in the future.

Yu Jing took the hairpin, showed a satisfied smile, praised her husband a few times, and prepared to go back to catch up on sleep.

As a result, at this moment, Qiu Zuo suddenly called out to Yu Jing and said, "My lady, why is your leg limping? Did you fall?"

This sentence made Yu Jing panic. There was no way around it; she didn't dare to refuse any of Li Chen's requests, and who could withstand a whole night?

It was over; the matter would definitely be exposed. Yu Jing didn't know how to face Qiu Zuo.

If she explained that she had done some strange movements and the emperor misunderstood and then did it for a whole night, would Qiu Zuo believe it?

If Qiu Zuo were angry, that wouldn't be a big problem; the fear was that Li Chen would be angry. Li Chen was an emperor in the Sage Realm.

Yu Jing was thinking of excuses, how to explain it clearly, and then avoid sharing a room with her husband tonight. After all, Li Chen had asked her to come tonight as well, and she had promised.

Just as she was stammering, Qiu Zuo suddenly patted his own head and said, "Hey, look at my brain. You just went to see His Majesty, so it's normal to be flustered by the dragon might. I was scared to death yesterday too."

This sentence made Yu Jing feel that her husband was very thick-skinned; he didn't even suspect anything?

So she tried to ask petulantly, "Why don't you suspect that I have some relationship with Jun Wuhui like last time?"

Hearing this, Qiu Zuo couldn't help but laugh, waving his hand directly: "Don't tease me. I know you best, and I also understand the Sage Realm. The Sage Realm pursues the ethereal immortal path. Jun Wuhui didn't look down on you, and His Majesty is a hundred times stronger than Jun Wuhui, so how could he look down on you? Only your husband here feels sorry for you."

This sentence made Yu Jing unable to hold back, and she said angrily, "Fine, fine, fine, that's how you say it, right? I'll go serve His Majesty tonight."

Qiu Zuo laughed instead: "Go ahead, I'm not stopping you. If you serve His Majesty well and conceive a dragon seed, our Qiuyue Villa will have produced a noble person!"

He still thought his wife was just being petulant, so he said it very generously.

As a result, the next second, perhaps because of his broad-mindedness, Qiu Zuo suddenly had an epiphany. The aura around his body began to change; he had just broken through and felt like he was having another enlightenment.

"My lady, you are truly my lucky star. I might not be able to accompany you tonight; I'm going into seclusion," Qiu Zuo said excitedly.

"Go, seize this opportunity well." Yu Jing didn't understand why her husband would have an epiphany because of such things.

She had originally been worried about being unable to serve His Majesty tonight and being blamed by him. Since you're doing this, I don't even have to bother finding an excuse.
