Drunken Cloud Villa
"What did you say? The queen is ill and her sister has entered the palace to attend to her illness?" Su Jing was shocked as soon as Dai Man finished speaking.
Dai Man also found it unbelievable, but still nodded seriously, "It's true, she entered the palace at noon today and should be in Kunning Palace now."
Su Jing was still somewhat unbelievable, the queen even if it's a real illness, but it's only two or three days, not a serious illness that is difficult to cure. The prime minister's mansion sent people in, and it's just a concubine daughter. I'm afraid the queen will be ill for a long time this time, whether she likes it or not.
"The slave heard other palace people say that this Miss Yu is named Yu Fu Yi, and she's already 14 years old, younger than the master. It's said that previously there were plans to send her into the palace, but later it was said that the empress strongly opposed it and used some methods to make this miss lose out. This time, Prime Minister took advantage of the empress being unwell to sneak her in."
"It's really interesting," Su Jing said calmly, with a hint of interest.
Dai Man continued, "But no, this Miss Yu is said to be extremely beautiful, and compared to the previous number one beauty in the capital, Liang Lianyuan, she doesn't lose out by a single hair. Moreover, she's talented and skilled, with excellent painting skills and exceptional chess abilities, truly a perfect combination of talent and beauty."
"Then let's get a good look at that book," Su Jing said with a slight smile.
His face was originally full of smiles, but as soon as he saw the person coming in, it changed immediately, and the speed was so fast that Daiman, who was standing beside him, was tongue-tied.
"Master, it's time for your medicinal bath," Yau said with a straight face, pretending not to see her expression.
Su Jingxi really disliked this medicinal bath, one soak took half a time, not to mention that nothing could be done, and she had to endure the pungent smell of the medicine, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
I've tried it once before, and I really don't want a second time in this life.
"Alright, Yao, just wait a bit longer, your master is in no mood right now."
Ting Yao didn't care about much, directly taking out many medicinal materials and saying, "Master, this is for your body's good, no matter what the servant will not let you have your way again. Besides, this is the last time, just endure it."
Before the master had sobered up, he had already been tricked once, and now it was the third time.
Su Jing was taken aback and pouted, "Ben Pei is your master."
"I am still the emperor," said Zong Zhengjin as he walked in, successfully catching a glimpse of someone who was initially startled, shrinking back before scurrying over on tiptoes.
"Your Majesty, how did you come here?" Su Jingyun reluctantly paid a courtesy and asked casually. Latest chapter full text
Zong Zhengjin didn't expose her either, raised an eyebrow and said, "I am the emperor, I come when I want to."
Su Jing did not get angry, nor did she see any fear, pulling his arm and leaning a part of her body weight on him, "The concubine is worried that the emperor's affairs are busy, delaying the emperor's proper business would not be good."
Zong Zhengjin half-embracing and half-hugging her, carried her to the couch, and coldly snorted, "I didn't know that Feier had become so sensible"
"Concubines have always been very understanding," Su Jing continued to be stubborn.
Zong Zhengjin touched her small hand, feeling warm, and didn't think much of it. "The weather is getting colder, the allowance isn't enough to go directly to the palace to get some more, don't be stingy, absolutely must not catch a chill."
"Yes, Your Majesty is so good," Su Jing leaned into his arms, smiling sweetly.
Zong Zhengjin didn't buy it, seeing that Yuetou and the others had already retreated, he glanced at the bathroom, pulled her out of his arms, "I'm fine, you still need to soak in your medicinal bath."
The emperor Su Jing pouted and was really unwilling.
Zong Zhengjin's heart was soft and invisible, but he still said in a hard tone, "You want me to accompany you together"
Su Jingxi did not speak, just keeping her head down like this.
Zong Zhengjin touched the back of her head that she had left for him, lifted up her chin and kissed the corner of her eyes. "Be good."
Two stars blinked and nodded reluctantly.
Refusing to admit one's mistakes and insisting on one's own views is going too far.
Excess is as bad as deficiency.
Su Jingxi stayed in the bathroom for what felt like an eternity, and as soon as time was up, she immediately got out of the bathtub and rinsed herself with clean water twice, but her body still had a faint medicinal smell.
This life, last life, the most hated thing is medicine, no exception.
After finishing her toilette, as she approached the inner chamber, she was taken aback. "Your Majesty", why haven't you left yet?
Zong Zhengjin pulled her over and personally used a clean towel to dry her hair, which was still quite handy even without any experience serving others.
Su Jing had a somewhat pampered and spoiled look, wanting to stop him, but thinking about it again, she gave up and sat on one side, quietly waiting for him to enjoy his own fun.
"Xī ér guǒ zhēn de shì chū shuǐ fú róng," Zōng Zhèng jǐn yóu zhòng de zàn tàn yī shēng, tā de jī fū shì suǒ yǒu fēi pín lǐ miàn bǎo yǎng de zuì hǎo de, bái bái de, huá huá de, wú guān nián líng.
Translation:
"Xi'er is indeed a water lotus," Zong Zhengjin sincerely praised, her skin was the best maintained among all the concubines, white and smooth, regardless of age.
"At first it comes, shining like the white sun just out and illuminating the roof beam; as it gradually advances, it is bright like a clear moon spreading its light."
"Your Majesty is comparing his concubines to the Goddess of Wushan Mountain," Su Jing said with a slight smile.
Zong Zhengjin also smiled, "I am not King Xiang of Chu."
He is not King Xiang of Chu, he won't just watch her leave, he will possess her, both in body and heart.
"Of course, Your Majesty is not King Xiang of Chu, and your concubines will not leave you."
She understands him.
Zong Zhengjin burst out laughing, picked her up and placed her on his lap, gently biting her thin lips, rolling her small tongue, repeatedly licking and teasing, the action was gentle but didn't allow her to escape, the two tightly embracing each other.
Su Jing's eyelashes fluttered, her eyes slightly downcast, fully cooperating with him.
After a long time, Zong Zhengjin finally let her go, looking at the two beautiful peach blossom eyes that had a faint layer of mist, thin lips slightly red and swollen, looking very lovely.
"Trust me, I guarantee there won't be a next time."
Su Jing did not speak, burying his head in his chest, only nodding heavily.
After dinner, Su Jingzhen saw that he still didn't seem to be preparing to leave and blinked his eyes. "Your Majesty has nothing else tonight?"
For three days, he stayed overnight at Zuiyunwu. She thought that last night would be the last time, after all, he had never exceeded three days in his favoritism towards her before.
Three days is a limit.
Throughout the palace, the only one who can make the Emperor stay in one place for more than three days is Shu Gui Fei.
Could it be that she was the second person and even if there were two people, they actually didn't do anything for these three days.
"Hmm, you're not happy" Zong Zhengjin's eyes sparkled as he casually asked.
Su Jing suddenly stopped her inquiry and only revealed her sweetest smile, leaning towards him, "I'm so happy, I'm overjoyed."
Zong Zhengjin chuckled and said with a very good mood, "You ate a lot tonight, I'll accompany you to the courtyard to take a walk and digest."
This is a good excuse to kill time, playing chess for three days in a row, it's inevitable that you'll get "bored".
Su Jing accepted the cloak without hesitation, and Zong Zhengjin helped her tie it up before she could even lift a hand. The two exchanged a smile as they looked at each other.
Xiang Yao stood by and watched as the two of them walked away hand in hand, wishing they could stay like that forever.
This was also what Su Jingxian had been longing for. For the past few days, he had been treating her so well that it seemed like a dream come true, doing everything she had always hoped her other half would do for her.
May there be years to look back on, and may we share our deep feelings with each other in old age.
She never asked for much, but in this era, she has always known that these are just foolish fantasies, so she dare not think about it and forced herself to forget those unrealistic "dreams".
My emotions dare not run too deep, fearing it's just a grand dream.
But now, no matter what his motives are, whether it's to make up for something, or to alleviate his own guilt, or to avoid blaming himself, whatever the reason may be, he has done so much for her, and no matter how long it lasts, in her heart, she is still grateful to him, at least he makes her as happy as she is now.
As if in a dream.
When you get it, sing loudly; when you lose it, rest. Many sorrows and hatreds are also lingering. Today there is wine, today I am drunk; tomorrow sorrow comes, tomorrow sorrow. Letting go of oneself once in a while, what's the harm? Why must one consider too much, adding unnecessary shackles to oneself.
"What are you thinking about?" Zong Zhengjin saw that her expression was first melancholic and then calm, with a hint of curiosity.
Su Jing smiled and stepped back, "The concubine is thinking, the mountain has wood and the wood has branches, my heart is pleased with you but you don't know."
It's just that I wish your heart were like mine, and you would never disappoint the thought of missing each other. But I know this is indeed too luxurious.
Zong Zhengjin was taken aback, coughed twice, his face looked unnatural, and his ears were slightly red, "You talk too much."
"What does the Emperor know now?" Su Jing's face turned pink as if she didn't know what shyness was.
Zong Zhengjin saw that although she was smiling, the seriousness in her eyes was clearly visible. For the first time in her life, someone had confessed to her so directly, and it was this person, who made her heart feel soft and joyful, with a gentle expression, "I know."
Before Su Jing could speak again, he said once more, "I know that Hui'er does not understand what reserve is, and the daughter of a noble family does not know shame."
In this dynasty, the social atmosphere was not very open. Although women could go out, they had to be accompanied by a sedan chair or carriage. They would only go to places like jewelry stores or clothing shops and it was impossible for them to walk on the main streets. Even if they occasionally appeared on the main streets, they had to cover their faces with a veil.
As for corresponding with men or privately sending letters, or privately giving gifts, or publicly expressing affection, it is almost impossible. Private exchanges are considered impure and unchaste, a great taboo for women.
Su Jingxi was furious, staring with discontent, but only lasted for a few seconds before she couldn't help it and burst out laughing, stomping her feet. "Is the concubine expressing her feelings to her husband? How can the Emperor make fun of the concubine?"
Zong Zhengjin supported her and nodded, "Fei'er doesn't know shame, I also like it, no need to be ashamed."
"Hmm," Su Jing covered up the hint of loss in her heart with a seemingly dissatisfied hum.
It's also good this way, one day I'll exchange my heart for yours and only then will we know how deep our memories are.
