Yu Yan kept looking at that beauty, her skin smooth and flesh smooth, but she did not speak. When she met her gaze, her eyes were filled with arrogance, and it was unknown whose daughter it was.

"That is Ye Mingyue, the daughter of the wealthiest merchant from the south, Ye Lanxia, who also came back with the prince. The Empress must take care of her little sister from now on." Qiu Xuanling ran over, gave Yu Yan a branch, and then left with the little girl.

Originally, Yulixiao had brought back two beauties, one the daughter of a genius doctor in the world and the other the daughter of the richest businessman in the south.

She waved her almond branches, and the petals began to fall in droplets. In his heart, he thought that having more women was a good thing. The more the better. If he forgot about her, she would be able to self-destruct. No, she would be free … She pursed her lips and smiled. She waved the branch of the mountain apricot once again, writing the words' great martial arts world '. When the petals fluttered, she twirled two circles on the ground, filling her skirt like a flower bud.

"Empress." Nian En came over with a handful of flowers, and with an anxious look on her face she whispered into her ear: "Just now, this servant heard from Ling Fei's girl that the book was sold very quickly in the capital. Jin Fu was so embarrassed that he became angry, and went to find trouble with the bookseller, who gave him the place to stay."

Yu Yan's eyes lit up. With a human's curiosity, the greater the disturbance, the better the book would be. She made a prompt decision. She went back to retrieve her painting scroll and found a chance to slip out of the temple at night.

Hearing that, Nian En and Nian An almost fainted on the spot. These days, it was no different from committing suicide every day!

She was so ugly and unclean, Yulixiao didn't even bother to look at her. After bowing to Buddha and making merry, she would leave, stealing one of the medallions of the Fourth Concubine, and would be able to slip away at any time.

He leisurely sat by the window to copy the scripture. A few apricot branches with damaged leaves were placed by his side. When the sky turned dark, it would be the night of the night when the winds were strong and the cards were stolen! Endure for a moment and be able to enjoy the night, why not?

The houses in this temple were all constructed of wood, and even the falcons were made of wood. Separated by the wooden wall, the Buddhist chanting had started, and the woman's chanting could be heard. Nian An leaned on the wooden board and listened for a long time, then finally said, "Empress, why do you want to worship Buddha by dancing the apricot flower?"

"Greetings, Joyous Buddha." Yu Yan said indifferently.

Nian An nodded seriously, then pulled up a chair to look. There was a small hole in the high plank and she could see into the next room. She only took one look and immediately covered her mouth. She slowly climbed down and repeatedly nodded her head.

"Empress …" Her face rose like the liver of a pig as she stammered out a finger at the wall.

Yu Yan was overjoyed, with this scene, wasn't it a good opportunity to draw? She raised an eyebrow, dropped her pen, and came over to climb the stool.

Due to this pair of extremely daring master and servant, Nian En's heart once again felt like it was about to explode. He quickly went to the door to guard, placed his hands together in front of his chest and chanted the name of Amitabha.

Yu Yan nimbly climbed onto the chair and looked over curiously.

Fragrant mist permeated the air, and the song Shengsheng was in high spirits. Third Consort was dancing with apricot branches in her hands. The three of them, each wearing a thin, cicada wings, lifted their hands. Their sleeves slid down to their shoulders, revealing their snow-white arms.

Ye Sujian was the bravest. With a few twists and turns, she arrived at Yulixiao's side. The Apricot Flower Branch lightly brushed the back of his hand, probing upwards all the way to his chest. Seeing that he didn't refuse, she stuck her body forward. Her waist was as soft as a water snake as she stuck her body close to his arm. Her arms wrapped around his neck and lightly rubbed against his body.

Before leaving the pavilion, everyone was a shy girl. How could she marry someone? Her methods were even more nimble than the girls in the pigeonhole courtyard.

Yu Yan looked at them as an image formed in her mind. She jumped off the chair, spread out the paper and started drawing. She had changed from her previous style, boldly using colored pigments to hook out a bright yellow gauze dress, a long crimson skirt, and golden earrings that swayed in the air, looking very lifelike … The temptation of half hugging the lute to hide one's face was far more tempting than being naked.

At first, Nian En was so scared that she felt pain in his throat every time she breathed, but later on, she was attracted by her and closed the doors and windows tightly.

The fifth time Yu Yan climbed onto the high chair, she saw Yulixiao hugging Qiu Xuanling, her hands gently caressing her arm. Suddenly, he raised her head and looked in her direction.

Her legs went soft, and she abruptly fell down. Fortunately, Nian An was holding onto the chair right now, and she was fine, pressing down hard enough that Nian An screamed miserably.

"Empress, you're going to lose weight!"

"Lower your voice..." "I'll give you an extra five taels of silver."

Yu Yan raised his finger and squinted her eyes at her.

Nian An's eyes lit up, the pain was indescribable, holding onto the chair, she urged Yu Yan to draw. This pair of master and servant were both suicidal beings in the face of wealth. Nian En was frightened out of her wits by the sound of the door opening.

The door opened, and a few people came out. However, they did not see Yulixiao and Qiu Xuanling.

"Spirit Concubine will wait on you at night, you two stay here and guard it well."

Chen Yao exhorted a few things before bringing everyone to leave.

Ye Sujian was not convinced and glared at the door. However, Ye Mingyue remained calm and collected, leading them to walk in front of Chen Yao.

Qiu Xuanling's screams came from the side of the wooden board, followed by the sound of breathing …

"Oh, this looks even better. Let me see."

Yu Yan climbed up again. This time, when she climbed up, she saw a glimmer of light. She was startled for a moment, then quickly squatted down.

Heavens, Yulixiao was also looking this way!

After a period of deathly silence, she quickly stood up and covered the small hole with her hands. She gave Nian En a meaningful glance, and the two girls quickly started to clean up the drawing paper and set the scripture on the table.

"Empress, please open the door." The eunuch stopped outside the door.

Yu Yan took a deep breath and slowly walked over to open the door. As the chair was carried in, Yulixiao slanted his body onto the chair and his cold eyes swept across her and fell on the two girls behind her.

Thump, thump … The two girls' souls were scared out of their wits as they hurriedly kneeled down, not daring to even breathe loudly.

"Your Highness." She calmed down and bowed. He muttered in his heart, how did Yulixiao climb up such a high wall? Look at these eunuchs, they didn't have the strength to lift him up so high!

Yulixiao held a dark blue feathered arrow in his hand, and lightly patted the chair's legs.

The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is and the more fragrant it is. Yu Yan quietly glanced at the arrow, and then lowered her head. He must not be a beast and use this arrow to pierce her heart.

"All of you, leave." He stared at her for a moment, then spoke.

Nian An and Nian En hurriedly got up and took a look at Yu Yan before they buried their heads and ran.

The door creaked shut, leaving the two of them staring at each other. The light from the lanterns shone on his face, and he could clearly see the criss-cross scars on his face, making him look as sinister as a ghost.

Yu Yan was still half squatting down when her lower leg started to cramp again. She could not help but ask, "What orders does the Prince have?"

The long arrow slowly lifted up. First, it lifted a strand of her black hair and shook it off. Then, it used the sharp arrow to pat her face. This feeling was extremely cold. Then the long arrow slid slowly down her slender waist and suddenly lifted her skirt and pulled it up inch by inch until it stopped at her thigh. The cold iron slid back and forth on her lap and whispered, "How many lovers do you have?"

"No lover." Yu Yan shook her head again.

"Since you don't have a lover, then why did the empress dowager want to punish you? Why didn't the palace's mama inspect you?"

His voice was low as he drew back the arrow and pointed it at her forehead.

Yu Yan looked up at him, and said word by word, "It's all because of Your Highness."

"Because of This King?" Yulixiao was obviously startled, then a cold light flashed in his eyes, as the corner of his lips curled up into a cold smile.

"I have been alone for three years, four months, and twenty-six days. Every single night on a cold, clear night is extremely lonely. I only treat that as a prince. "

The light in Yulixiao's eyes became brighter and brighter as he stared at her.

She had already used this phrase with the Empress Dowager. She must persist, or she would die without a burial. Although the people had strict demands on the virginity of women, they did not prohibit widows from using such things to comfort themselves. Therefore, this was not a sin on their part. At most, it would only be unpleasant to hear.

"Then... Princess, how many times do you use it every night? "

He suddenly laughed, with a sound similar to a blunt sawing, so boisterous that it caused Yu Yan's ear drums to hurt. She felt depressed, so she casually waved her hand. After that, their gazes landed on her hand. Five slender fingers were covered by candlelight …

Yu Yan was extremely embarrassed and quickly closed her four fingers.

"Ha, ha …" "Heh …"

Yulixiao s arrows knocked on the chair again, the laughter was sharp to the ears.

"Five times... This King's wangfei is really interesting, and can't be happier by herself. "

With a few taunts, he had the eunuchs come in and carry him out, leaving a room full of silence and her still half crouching.

Once again, he toyed with her in such a light manner. Once again, he let her go …

Yu Yan couldn't understand, what was this man trying to do? Or was the measure too big? Or was he trying to hold her captive for some other reason?

In the room next door, the mngh sound started again, it took a good half a tea's time before it stopped, Yu Yan did not continue to squat, and sat down by the side of the table. She had heard such cries before, but it was not as loud as Qiu Xuanling's … Just as she was about to find a word to describe her feelings, Qiu Xuanling's trembling voice came over: "My prince, Ling'er loves you so much …"

Yu Yan spat out the tea in her mouth, almost choking herself to death. That man with his legs crippled, how in the world could he make a woman so excited?

Of course, she no longer peeked. This man was too ugly. He only looked as if he was scared and it seemed to be boring.

Yu Yan, she likes good-looking men too! For example, Yun Qin. That kind of masculine and straight … She stopped laughing and turned her head to look out the window. The moonlight was soft, like the way he used to look at her.

Was his newlyweds happy? But happiness? But he was still as engrossed in it as he was in the other room? Princess, she … Beautiful, innocent, kind and pure!

The other side of the wall became quiet, and the temple returned to its former tranquility.

Yu Yan climbed onto the bed and went to sleep. It would be best if she didn't have a dream, then she would have no worries, worries, hardships, sorrow, pain, and injuries …
