Chapter 42

I left the emperor's palace, and casually walked around, but on the road, there are numerous bodyguards and palace maids, and each time they see me they bend down in greeting, and I have to nod and release them every time, this is really bothersome.

So, I unconsciously walked towards an area with fewer people and I arrived at the manmade lake once again.

There happened to be some eunuchs changing the water in the lake, looking at them I suddenly had an idea in my mind. After watching them drain the water, I told them not to put the water back in, they did not dare to ask anything and could only nod yes.

I secretly walked back to the forest area and followed my memory to locate the small exit door of the secret basement room that was open.

Cautiously holding onto the stone wall on the sides, I walked downward slowly. It is harder to walk down than to walk up because the ground is very slippery if one does not pay attention it is very easy to slip.

After a while I walked into the secret room I and Wu MIn Jun had stayed in, Wu Hao was also here. It is currently a mess here, Wu Hao was probably too depressed, and unexpectedly took a lot of candles and arranged them in a neat pile to make the shape of an eight diagram, now burnt down, leaving only the wax-oil imprint.

I: "..."

Looking around to the side, I saw some food, the ones I used to use a rope to send down to Wu Hao. After lighting a candle, I discovered that Wu Hao didn't really touch the food...I don't know what Wu Hao was thinking...

I looked at the dishes for a long time, spacing out until the candle oil dripped on my hand, I recovered my mind. Looking down, there was a large piece of wax on my hand, still slightly hot.

I was somewhat speechless, I could only look at another side, there was the side where the wine was buried, certainly, all the wine should have been finished by Wu Min Jun and me.

...That's not right.

I carefully looked and discovered that Wu Hao had dug up some soil with a broken plate and revealed more jars of wine.

Why is there still wine?!

I was bewildered, dropped the candle, picked up the broken plate and continued to dig, and really dug out 34 jars of wine.

I: "..."

"Oh, wine." Suddenly, a female voice sounded behind me, I subconsciously became alert, and then immediately relaxed, this is my own voice, that is, Wu Min Jun.

He stood at the entrance, and said lightly: "how is there still wine, I thought we drank it all."

I remembered the things that happened here before, with embarrassment: "You're asking me?!Ask yourself...."

He smiled and came towards me, saying, " I was really drunk, and my head was groggy, and I still remember so much..."

Then he picked up a jar of wine and said, " I'll take one, you take two, let's go."

I:"... You are not taking more?"

Wu Min Jun crooked his head: "you drink more compared to me."

I :"..."

Yeah, well, he'll be fine with one. I'll be fine with two.... I've never drunk alcohol before that time, and I felt good after drinking it, it seems I have become addicted to it...

I held onto one jar in the right hand, with another in my left hand, and was ready to go out with Wu Min Jun

"Go ahead, " he said.

I did not think much about it and complied with going ahead. I had stayed in the secret chamber for some time, and going out, it is inevitable that there will be some discomfort. I squinted my eyes - -the next moment, a familiar hand covered my eyes.

I:"..."

I now know why someone shouldn't take more than one bottle out of the secret chamber.

After leaving the secret room, I was a little embarrassed, Wu Min Jun tapped my back, looking at my face with a puzzled look: "You haven't drunk yet, how is come your face is so red?"

I:"... Nothing, it was too stuffy down there so I'm a little out of breath."

Wu Min Jun smiled, did not ask again, and said: "Oh, let's go back."

I nodded.

He said to go back, but we must first go the royal study to review memorials to the throne with him first, today's rushing around for Pingyang's matter has not curbed the duty to do this. When we finished reading the memorials, it was already night time. I and Wu Min Jun returned to the Heaven Palming Palace (Emperor's palace) to have dinner, and then picked up the jars of wine, opened them and started drinking.

Probably the soil around the manmade lake is really good, the wine made there tastes really good and even compared to the many so-called tribute wine, this is much better.

I drank three times and said, " that's good..."

Wu Min Jun looked around, said: "Why is it so dark?"

I said, " only four lamps, it's usually like this. why?"

"I don't know. I feel a little uncomfortable drinking wine, the lamps are too few."

Then he arose himself and lit up all the lamps in the Heaven Palming palace, and now it is as bright as day.

I said, " What a waste...."

Wu Min Jun ignored me, and continued to drink his own wine, I did not fall behind and continued to drink as well.

Gradually, I smelled some light fragrance in the air, not of a pungent kind that irritates, the fragrance is not overly rich, it's refreshing fragrance.

I asked, "is there any spice in the lamp today?"

Wu Min Jun does not like any fragrance, so the servants do not put any in the lamps.

Wu Min Jun said: "Don't know."

After a while, he added: "but this is not bad."

I agree with the nod: "Yes, it smells very comfortable."

It's so comfortable, my body feels soft.... Although it may be because of drinking wine.

I think it's hot, but now it's winter, and I take my coat off, and turn around, and I see Wu Min Jun is also taking clothes off, and I asked, " you feel hot, too?"

"Hmm." Wu Min Jun's voice was slightly confused," I will go blow out a few lamps."

I drank a glass of wine and said, " I told you to stop lighting..."

Wu Min Jun did not respond, got up and blew out all the lights, except the four around us.

But it's still hot.

I am very familiar with Wu Min Jun. We wear our inner clothes to sleep every day, so we simply take off other clothes, leaving only our inner clothes, and the heat is slightly relieved. I feel that my mouth is very dry, so I am constantly drinking, but I feel even more thirsty.

Suddenly ... ...

I realized something very serious.

"Wu Min Jun...." I stammered.

Wu Min Jun lazily to looked at me: "what?"

I said, " I... it's not right, your body, again.... at it again."

He looked down and was surprised: "Yun Jiao, this woman... Gee, can't you bear being with me, huh?"

I:"..."

I want to cry without tears: "no... I don't know what happened...."

Wu MIn Jun seemed agitated and pulled his collar and said: "I also think ..."

Because of the body's reaction, I was very shy and was afraid to continue drinking, afraid of doing something strange. Wu Min Jun in order to ease the dryness continued to drink the wine, he finished two out of three jars we brought.

I was still sitting in place restless, suddenly, Wu Min Jun turned to look at me, and said: "Yun Jiao, come over a little."

I was very embarrassed by my reaction, and my head was confused. then I leaned over and said, " why..."

The words were not finished, Wu Min Jun suddenly put his hand at the back of my head, pulled me forward, I was stunned, then I felt Wu Min Jun's lips on my lips, soft with a taste of wine.

I was shocked and tried to resist, then the scent of wine passed over me, like a freshly picked flower brushing the tip of my nose, and as if bewitched, I slowly closed my eyes.
