Xiao Wanzi received the two beams of cold air from above his head, knowing that the Emperor was angry. Before he could explode, he quickly opened his mouth to explain.
"Your Majesty, it has nothing to do with this servant. It was the female officials in Yongyuan Hall who insisted on changing the Empress's clothes, which angered the Empress, so she wanted to go back."
Xiao Wanzi finished speaking quickly. He didn't feel any cold air shooting at him from above his head, so he breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat, and glanced at the Emperor.
The Emperor's face was covered with icy coldness, yin and arrogance. A fleeting cold ruthlessness flashed in his ink-black eyes, and his thin lips spoke violently.
"Send those four female officials to the Hall of Imperial Concubines for twenty heavy planks, and then send them to the Laundry Bureau to wash clothes."
Feng Xie's fierce eyes, like a tiger and a leopard, were unfathomable, and Xiao Wanzi dared not say more when he heard his words. He strode out.
In front of the palace gate, the female official who had just been beaten clutched her face and finally came to her senses.
At this moment, she was looking at the Empress with tears in her eyes, contemplating how to speak to the Emperor to gain his sympathy, and then heavily punish this ugly woman.
As soon as Xiao Wanzi rushed to the palace gate, he waved to the eunuchs, "His Majesty has an imperial decree. Drag these four scoundrels away immediately, send them to the Hall of Imperial Concubines for twenty heavy planks. They don't need to serve in Yongwu Hall anymore. Go to the Laundry Bureau to wash clothes."
Upon hearing Xiao Wanzi's order, the four women immediately fell to the ground, their faces losing their color.
But small eunuchs had already come to drag them away.
The four palace maids of Huaqing Palace were happy to see the Emperor punish the hateful female officials.
It seemed that the Emperor treated the Empress differently. Liu Liu's lips curled into a cold smile. Emperors had always been ruthless. What did these little girls understand? The Emperor could lift you to heaven with one word, and drag you to hell with another. What was there to be happy about?
The misery of others today might be their own reflection tomorrow.
After punishing the female officials, Xiao Wanzi turned back and said respectfully, "Your Highness, please come in. His Majesty is waiting for Your Highness in the sleeping quarters?"
Liu Liu raised her eyebrows, lightly lifted her skirt, and walked into Yongyuan Hall. Xiao Wanzi led the palace maids and eunuchs to guard outside, and the palace maids of Huaqing Palace also stood outside waiting.
Inside Yongyuan Hall, it was magnificent, with fragrant musk wafting, light curtains rolled up, red carpets spread on the floor, and palace lanterns hanging at the four corners, illuminating the entire palace as bright as day.
Liu Liu walked along the red carpet towards the sleeping quarters. The palace was silent, only the sound of her footsteps could be heard. Each step was like a drumbeat on her heart. She held a small porcelain bottle in her hand, which contained a sleeping powder.
Since Poison Woman was her subordinate, how could she not have these strange things? She hoped Feng Xie would not provoke her, otherwise, she would have to be a little despicable.
To be honest, she couldn't do intimate things with a man who disliked her. The thought made her shiver all over.
In the sleeping quarters, Feng Xie had almost fallen asleep waiting. This slow woman finally walked in. He glanced at the pretty woman with his eyes slanted.
For some reason, the birthmark on her face was particularly striking tonight. Was it because her face was flushed with tension, or for some other reason?
In any case, even though her complexion was so unpleasant, he didn't feel the urge to retreat. Instead, he felt a beastly gasp, like the excitement of seeing prey. His lips curved slightly, revealing a seductive smile.
He lightly tapped the bed beside him with his fair hand and said in a deep, hoarse voice.
"The Empress is truly late. I've almost fallen asleep waiting."
Liu Liu's face was solemn. She snorted coldly in her heart. If you fell asleep, that would be a good thing. If you didn't, that would be your trouble. She half-knelt and slowly said.
"Your Majesty summoned Liu Liu to serve you. Liu Liu believes her appearance is ugly and fears that Your Majesty will be disheartened, so it is best to forgo this honor." She gave him a chance first. If he let her go, then she wouldn't need to drug him, saving trouble later.
Feng Xie's charming face darkened when he heard this, and a hint of displeasure flashed in the corners of his eyes. He tapped the bed with his large hand, and his bent knuckles showed his anger.
This hateful ugly woman! He favored her, and she dared to dislike him. He didn't see the slightest sign of self-deprecation in her, only a trace of disgust.
Although it was deeply hidden, he still caught it, so his anger grew little by little, and his breathing became heavier.
"Am I not as good as Prince Yan? Don't forget you are my Empress. You don't want my favor, but you are entangled with Prince Yan. Aren't you afraid I will punish you?"
As soon as Feng Xie finished speaking, he spun around and fell beside Liu Liu, picked her up like a small chicken with both hands, and threw her onto the frighteningly large bed. He followed closely and pressed against her, supporting his head with one hand.
He stared coldly at the woman on the bed. Her eyes were as dark and beautiful as grapes, and most importantly, they were lustrous and moist.
At this moment, she was not showing fear, but coldness. She looked at him without moving, as if she would fight him if he moved again.
He, Feng Xie, the favored son of heaven, did not believe this. A faint smile appeared on his lips, a smile filled with biting coldness. His dark eyes grew increasingly deep, his brows clear and enchanting. He suddenly flipped over and pressed down on her, making her unable to move. His thin voice sounded in her ear.
"I favor you because I don't want Prince Yan to have any more illusions. Do you think I really want to favor you?" After Feng Xie finished speaking, his gaze fell on Liu Liu's lips, which were as cute and tender as diamond petals. His heart immediately became hot, and two sparks jumped in his eyes.
He reached out to touch her lips without thinking. The feeling of his stolen kiss last time still lingered on his teeth, making him want to try again to see if it was as good as last time.
Unfortunately, Liu Liu tilted her head, and her lips landed on her forehead. Her face became even colder. This man was really asking for it. How could he hurt others for his brother? She gritted her teeth and warned him menacingly.
"Let me go. There's nothing between Prince Yan and me. You don't need to wrong yourself for others.
Feng Xie ignored her words. His eyes became excited, flashing with blood-red butterfly light. His nostrils could smell the clean and fresh scent of virginity on her, which was so tempting that his heart became as restless as a wolf, wanting only to overwhelm and force himself. His lower body's excitement was pressed tightly against her.
Even though Liu Liu had no experience, she understood in her heart. The cold air dissipated abruptly. This man dared to have lustful thoughts about her. He was courting death. xxs壹贰
She exerted force with her jade legs and broke free. Before Feng Xie could make a move, a small bottle of powder was in her hand. With a flick of her fingertip, the fragrance spread.
By the time Feng Xie realized it, his thoughts were already a little muddled, but he understood in his heart that this woman had drugged him. He was filled with anger, his face was cold and blue, his veins bulged, and he panted with rage, gritting his teeth.
This woman dared to drug him! He was truly wise in all his life but foolish in this moment. How could this stubborn and round woman willingly serve him? He should have stripped her first.
Although he hated it, his consciousness had already left him. He directly fell onto the bed. Liu Liu easily pushed the man away and sneered triumphantly when she saw him fall asleep.
Thinking of how he had intended to use force, she couldn't help but be annoyed. She kicked him a couple of times. Anyway, no one was in the sleeping quarters now, so what if she hit him?
She just had to be careful not to leave any traces. As soon as Liu Liu thought of this, she kicked him a few more times. She even moved him to lie down properly, covered him with a thin quilt, and prepared to leave. Her eyes inadvertently swept past.
