That night, he didn't leave.
Ye Mingyue had to take care of her since she was heavily injured. In the morning of the next day, Yu Yan helped him wash herself and put on his clothes.
She was very clumsy and did not finish the task even after an hour.
Although Yulixiao laughed at how stupid her hands were, he didn't urge her. He let her circle around him, climb up and down the chair, and even stand on purpose, forcing her to stand on the chair to serve him. That way, the moment he looked up, he could tease her soft breasts.
After repeating this several times, Yu Yan was both embarrassed and angry. Her chest was already hurting from being bitten by him, and her entire body was itchy.
"Your Highness, if you continue to be like this, there's no need to go out today."
"What is it? This King still can't touch it? " he asked, raising his eyes.
Yu Yan pursed her lips, not responding to his words.
"Your Highness, someone from the palace has arrived." The guard in the courtyard called out to him in a low voice.
At this moment, the courtyard door was tightly shut and Nian An was still locked inside, unable to come out. Yet Nian En had been kneeling in the courtyard the entire night, her forehead on the ground and her entire body drenched in cold sweat, not daring to get up.
Yulixiao sat on the wheelchair, turned his head to look at her, and said solemnly: "Wait for my return."
Yu Yan did not say anything, she did not know what this was. The two of them seemed to have become very intimate, this sort of intimacy was beyond her scope of acceptance.
She didn't want to do this! He was even a little disgusted by this! She felt that she was like her own woman, delicately acting silly in front of him, seeking his love …
Seeing that she did not make a sound and had even turned her face away, Yulixiao's gaze turned cold, but he did not make it difficult for her anymore, and asked the guards to carry him out to the people sent by the palace.
Nian En still did not dare to get up, it was already a good thing that she did not die from fear! She had never thought that the prince would actually be well. That tall and mighty back, no wonder she was able to hear Yu Yan weeping to that extent every single time …
Yu Yan held her arm and mixed her up, saying in a low voice: "Quickly get up, it's alright now, but from today onwards, don't step out of the courtyard even half a step, and don't let Nian En see even the slightest bit of it."
Nian En's legs trembled and she couldn't even stand properly. It took a long time before she managed to pull her soul back, and she asked while trembling, "Empress … In case … The Empress Dowager knows that none of us will be able to escape his treason. "
"Her Majesty will not know." Yu Yan shook her head and lowered her voice, "Remember, just think of him like that."
Nian En nodded her head again and again, but her legs went soft and she fell onto the ground.
Only then did Nian An get permission to come out, and she ran in front of the two of them, and asked anxiously: "Nian En, did you anger the Duke? Is it to ruin the prince's mood? "
"Don't ask anymore, bring water for her to wash. Quickly go and change." Yu Yan stared at her, and said seriously: "Nian An, from now on, don't bother with your own mouth, don't say that I won't save you, you will really suffer the pain of having your tongue cut off and your wrists."
Nian An trembled as she covered her mouth, not daring to say a single word. She turned around and went to get some water for Nian En. After seeing that she had finished washing up, she then went to prepare breakfast.
Yu Yan sat under a tree and watched the White Peacock proudly walking back and forth in the courtyard. She whispered, "No matter how proud you are, you can only be locked up here.
The White Peacock turned its proud, long neck. The crest on its head moved, and its white tail slowly unfurled. Under the sunlight, its white tail shone with the brilliance of a pearl.
Yu Yan got up in shock and touched its tail tentatively. It did not put it away, but stared at her quietly with its bright black eyes.
"Strange, could it be that you can understand my words?" It became spiritual! Do you really think that I appreciate it? "
Yu Yan sighed as she gently stroked her soft feathers with her fingertips. However, the White Peacock suddenly pecked her arm without restraint, and then quickly left.
The peacock spread its tail. Except for the fact that it was in heat, that was a threat! Yu Yan who dared to touch its tail became its enemy! Yu Yan held onto her aching arm, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. This was what playing a lute to a cow was, this was a waste of emotion!
"Miss Yu Yan, the Prince asked this servant to send something over." Steward Fu's chuckling voice came from outside the door.
Nian An went over to open the door, only to see Steward Fu and seven or eight servants coming in, cupping their hands in greeting.
"Miss Yu Yan is overjoyed."
"What's there to be happy about?" Yu Yan's heart skipped a beat, she looked at the boxes in the servant's hands, not knowing what Yulixiao wanted to do.
Steward Fu's eyes flashed, he took a step forward and personally opened the lid, introducing the boxes one by one.
"Your highness wants me to wait on you in your study in the future. This is the closest thing I can do to you." These were all gifted to the girl by the prince. There were a total of twelve of them in the night, and they were all made of top-grade silk. This is the newly created four treasures, the best Xuan paper, you smell this ink, mixed with orchid fragrance. And this Wolf Brush, this high-quality Violet Bamboo must be easy to find. "Oh, this is the ten books that the prince loves to read the most, let the Empress take a look as well."
If he gave it to her, so be it. He gave the other wives jade and jade, and gave her these. Yu Yan touched the engraved lotus flower on the platform, and said softly: Didn't I get any gold or silver?
Steward Fu's smile was stunned, according to her words, he thought Yulixiao was too stingy. How could he know that Yu Yan was still thinking about Sulanqi's one tael of gold.
"This, your highness only rewarded these, why haven't you taken it in yet?"
He looked at Yu Yan's calm face and waved her hand, commanding the servants to bring the things in.
Yu Yan took out a book from the servant holding the book and sat down to read.
Military strategy! National policy! Yulixiao wanted to make her a female prime minister? She could have seen all this in the past, but Yulixiao's attitude had troubled her. Could it be that she really wanted to be his wangfei? Just using these books and papers to buy her off?
"Oh, Night Pearls are valuable." The leader of the Steward Fu said as he looked at her.
Yu Yan acknowledged but she did not raise her head, nor did she intend to reward her.
Steward Fu coughed dryly, with a wave of his hand, he led his people and left. Nian An caught up to his with the silver in his hands and stuffed it into his palm, saying in a low voice, "Our Empress is very stiff, I hope Steward Fu can say some good words."
The Steward Fu laughed as he stuffed the silver taels into his sleeves, smiling as he said, "The Empress is very intelligent, which is why Your Highness has bestowed these books to her. Only those who know your heart will understand."
After Yu Yan heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.
Intimacy? She and Yulixiao? Pui!
Annoyed, she stood up and turned into the house. The ten Night Pearls were placed in different places and covered by a dark cover. At night, it would be brightly lit here — was it intentional to not let her sleep? Or did he want to masturbate to the fullest in this room that was bright as day?
"The Empress is eating." Nian En, in a daze, walked in carrying a plate of food. She staggered and almost tripped at the doorstep.
Yu Yan saw that she was scared witless and told her to rest.
"Empress, Madam Profound Spirit is here." Nian An walked in quickly and looked at her mysteriously: "The Empress has just been doted upon, she will stick close by. The Empress must ally with her, and with help, I won't need to be afraid of the Mrs. Yao anymore.
Yu Yan looked at her and said slowly: "Thank you for your guidance."
"No thanks, no thanks …" Nian An smiled merrily, under Yu Yan's sharp gaze, she slumped down and waved her hands: "This servant will spout, this servant will know his wrongs."
"One last time, Nian An. If you dare offend me again, I won't keep you here anymore. Where do you plan to go? Yu Yan did not look at her anymore and walked out quickly.
He opened the door with his hands and welcomed Qiu Xuanling with a smile. She was wearing a green dress and her cheeks were still swollen. One of her eyes was narrowed as she held a small lunchbox in her hand. Only two girls were with her as she raised her head to look at the signboard on the door.
"Lady Xuan Ling is here. Please come in." Yu Yan quickly walked down the stairs and held her hand …
"Elder sister, the words on your signboard are in gold." Qiu Xuanling smiled and interlocked fingers with hers as she walked up the stairs.
"Is that so? I haven't really looked at it. " Yu Yan laughed and took the food box from her hand, "What is this?"
"Am I not stung by bees? My mom specially made it for me, it's so delicious. "
Qiu Xuanling immediately became excited, and quickly walked to the small table under the tree, opened the box and took out a few plates of dessert. There was peanut butter, pumpkin cake, and chicken legs with sauce!
Nian An quickly made a pot of tea and carefully stood at the side waiting for them.
"Sister, let me tell you, being sick has its benefits. If you are sick, you don't need to pay respects. You can still sleep well, and you can even eat good food." Qiu Xuanling sat down and handed the chopsticks to her.
It was only then that Yu Yan found out that these three wives had to pay respects to Chen Yao every day. This was a rule, but it should be to pay respects to the main wife, just that her main wife was currently suspended in the air, with the title of slave. Chen Yao was the head of the fourth concubine, so the three could only pay respects to her as a form of respect.
"I fell asleep cutely." Qiu Xuanling sighed again, she looked left and right, then stared at the peacock and praised it, "Elder sister, give this to me."
"If you want it then bring it back. But it pecked at me." Yu Yan showed her her arm.
Qiu Xuanling smiled and shook his head: "No fear, I will tame it. I will give it delicious food, what is it going to eat?"
"Eat the little bugs." Yu Yan thought about it and replied softly.
"Yi, I'll feed it this!" Qiu Xuanling took a Pear Blossom Sesame and fed it to the White Peacock.
The white peacock walked away arrogantly, not even looking at her.
"How impressive." Qiu Xuanling sighed again.
In fact, Yu Yan was not willing to believe the kindness of these wives. They had been nurtured to fight for the honor of her family since young, and each of them had their own schemes. However, Qiu Xuanling didn't seem to be that kind of person.
Seeing that she was not eating, Qiu Xuanling asked with a strange expression: "Why isn't Elder Sister eating? "Doesn't it taste good?"
"I was just eating." Yu Yan pursed her lips and said with a smile.
Qiu Xuanling frowned, she turned her head, grabbed the handkerchief and said: "I know, you are afraid that I would poison you! I won't poison you. In this courtyard, only my sister is kind.
Yu Yan muttered to herself, then said softly, "It's just that I'm not very good at interacting with others."
"Aiya, it's not like I'm anyone else." Qiu Xuanling grabbed a chicken leg for her and shot at her continuously: "I heard from my cousin that the Censor's life is clean and honest, and is a pillar of the Empire. My sister is a daughter of the Censor's history, so the blood that dripped from her body is naturally clean as well."
Yu Yan looked at Qiu Xuanling, and laughed.
She was such a person. When faced with strangers, she spoke very little. Amongst the women she recognized, she could only see Princess Jing Ge's purity and innocence with a single glance. She liked Princess Jing Ge's eyes.
Qiu Xuanling was a little like Princess Jing Ge, but when she thought of her words "I love you, Prince", he couldn't like it anymore. She wasn't jealous, but rather, she felt that how could she possibly like that kind of face, that kind of man? Too fake!
"Nian An, get me a cup of water, I have it on me, I can't drink tea, my stomach will ache." Qiu Xuanling was also called Nian An.
Nian An quickly went down and poured her a cup of water.
At this time, Qiu Xuanling said depressingly: "Elder sister, I feel that I am very useless. The Prince used to love going to my room too, but I always fell asleep early, which always made him unhappy. He doesn't come to my room anymore. Is the prince with you early? How could the Prince be so brave? Every time he goes, my head hurts the next day, but I don't dare say it because I'm afraid he'll think I'm useless. "
