Yan Luan had blinked in surprise when she saw her best friend mumbling about how the emperor was a wolf hidden in plain sight. Truly, she had felt a sense of kinship with Yuan Jun, but still, she had respected him as a true emperor.
It was especially the case in her past life, though they were extremely intimate, their interactions were merely one between siblings, plus the fact that she pitied his life as a puppet emperor, and thought he might need a true friend or family.
His was a life of misery, as he was but a puppet throughout his life, unable to do things he truly desired, and later, when he was no longer of use to the Queen Dowager, he was simply poisoned to death by his own mother. It was truly an unfortunate life, just like hers.
And now, her best friend was mumbling complains about him, though in a soft and sentimental manner, while he sat nearby with a gentle smile plastered on his face.
“Your Majesty, FuYuan is already pregnant with your child, what are your future plans?” Yan Luan asked curiously.
She had heard about her best friend’s deal with the Queen Dowager, about how she had received her position as the future Queen, but from past events, preparing for an Emperor and an Empress Consort’s wedding would usually take not less than half a year, sometimes even taking longer than a year!
Her best friend did not mind waiting for it, but the child within her could not, as it might tarnish her reputation as someone who had gotten pregnant before marriage, and her right as Empress Consort might be taken away.
“I have already discussed it with the Queen Dowager, and we have decided to hasten the process of the wedding preparations.” He answered truthfully.
Yan Luan nodded in relief as she stared at her friend, who was resting within Yuan Jun’s arms with a look of content on her face. Caught up in her destiny, her best friend had came to this world by accident, but she was truly glad that her friend could find true happiness here.
“I have heard news of what happened with Wang AnZhi, I truly think that what Cousin Jing was admirable, though his actions were somewhat hasty. The situation at court hasn’t been favorable recently, and his actions would bring him plenty of problems in the future.”
But though his words were grim, his face was anything but worried, if one would search for a word for his expressions, it would be a mixture between joy and sneer.
His position as Emperor had always been power and authority held within Wang Yong’s palms, which was why he had prayed for the day that someone would swoop in and finish off that damn old man. True, his cousin had been hasty in his anger, but his actions were favorable, as the court is now forced to pick a side.
Yan Luan’s face grew slightly sullen at his words, this entire situation arose because of her, and though House Wang had not wage a war against her elder brother, she had heard rumors about how Wang Yong had picked a fight with Yan Jing at court, but fortunately, he had came out unscratched.
“Be at ease, Your Majesty, elder brother said he could handle it.”
It did not take long for both of them to take their leave, but before Yan Luan could retire to her room, her mother’s attendant, Zhao Yu, had arrived in a hurry, claiming that her mother is requesting for her arrival at the main hall, as Yan Fei had returned.
“Yan Fei?” Yan Luan gasped in surprise.
Zhao Yu, too, had exclaimed in shock when she heard the news previously, and she quickly lowered her voice as she whispered into Yan Luan’s ears, “She had been brought back by the Lord, this one had heard that she was kidnapped and raped by a ruffian, resulting in her pregnancy.”
When she arrived at the main hall, Princess YongKang and Yan Rong could be seen sitting on the top of the stage as they were the masters of the family.
She bowed slightly in greetings to her parents before turning her gaze at her weeping sister on the ground. To her surprise, the pure and innocent white lotus maiden was no longer, replaced by a haggard married woman in merely three months.
She had almost failed to recognize her elder sister!
The Yan Fei from before had worked hard to keep a soft spoken and kind facade for all to see, and together with her beautiful face, it had caught the interests and pity of many young masters from the other prestigious houses, all wishing to take her as a mistress even though she was merely an illegitimate daughter of House Yan.
But now, all that was left was a yellowed-skin woman, her previously long and silky hair was now tangled and reduced to shoulder length, while her broken legs and left wrists were mysteriously healed.
It was until much later that Yan Luan heard about how much her elder sister had gone through. Basically, in the beginning, Yan Rong had sent her back to Bian Shi, her late mother’s family home in the countryside.
Yan Fei had lived in fear for more than a month, afraid that Princess YongKang would send someone to take her life, but alas, it did not happen as she feared.
But still, she had grew up with a luxurious lifestyle, hence, when her fear faded, so did her gratitude for her late mother’s family. She began to voice out her complains about how horrible the living environment were at the town, causing anger throughout the entire family, which finally resulted in having herself kicked out from the house that she despised so much.
Her legs were already healed at that point, so she figured she could beg Yan Rong to allow her to return, or she could return to her husband, Chu Meng and beg for mercy, but it was not viable, as she had no money to purchase her ride. With no other choice available, she had decided to walk herself back to the city, only to be kidnapped by a wandering ruffian. After many tries, she had finally managed to slip an SOS letter to someone, begging them to send it to her father, hence saving herself from that hellhole.
But still, it was already too late for her, as she was already two months pregnant by the time she was saved.
“Father, mother! I’m willing to serve the God as a nun, in return for allowing me to keep the blood and flesh within my stomach. Please, I beg of you~”
Yan Luan had truly felt pity for what her elder sister had gone through, but that does not mean that she would soften her heart for Yan Fei. In her past life, Yan Fei had succeeded in her act until the very end, she had been the perfect and loving elder sister to her past self, but she was also the one who had lead Chu YunShang into her room the day before Yan Jing’s ascension to the throne, and it was Yan Fei who had coaxed her to drink the poisonous wine, which eventually killed her.
She had not believed her eyes when the excruciating pain spread throughout her entire body, and that was when she had finally realized how horrid a human’s greed was.
Yan Rong had been the first one to spoken, but due to Princess YongKang’s domineering aura, he could only speak gently, “Princess, the cottage at the South of the city is currently empty, and since Yan Fei is truly pitiful, perhaps we could send her there to live in peace for the rest of her life?”
But Princess YongKang has merely sneered at his words before letting out a soft chuckle, “Does family honor mean nothing to my dear HouYe? If news about this spreads, the entire dynasty would begin criticizing me for not disciplining my illegitimate daughter properly.”
Though, in the end, after discussing with Yan Jing, Princess YongKang had allowed Yan Fei to keep her baby, and she was sent to the cottage mentioned from before, but she was to live under a new name, and she was no longer allowed to call herself a daughter of House Yan.
“Elder brother, what did you say to mother? And why had you allowed her to keep her baby?” Yan Luan asked curiously as she nibbled on a pear within his arms.
Yan Jing had fetched the seed of the pear from her mouth with a handkerchief, placing it onto the table gently before wiping the corners of her lips with a slightly damp cloth, “You would understand why in the future, furthermore, didn’t Ah Luan told me about how saving a life would bring me luck and fortune? Do you not wish for me to spare her?”
Neither him nor Yan Dao had any plans to have a child in the future, as there was a high risk of infertility due to their continuous intake of contraceptives. But House Yan needed a successor, even if Yan Fei was an illegitimate daughter, her blood was still of House Yan, and so does her child……
“Mm~ Elder brother, you’re doing it again!” Yan Luan moaned softly before pushing against his hands, which were currently groping her twin bunnies greedily.
Ever since she had recovered from her illness, both of her brothers had visited her daily without fail, and not only had their shamelessness not reduce, it had grown to such lengths that it had scared her a little.
“Be good, I’ll only caress them.” Yan Jing murmured lazily as he hugged her gently while staring at her with warm eyes. His lips were clamped over her lush ones, as he tasted the lingering sweetness of the pear from within her mouth.
“Liar!” Yan Luan pushes against his bare chest before muttering shyly, “Y…You said the same thing yesterday.”
And what happened after that? His caress had quickly turned into pressing her against the bed and ramming their enormous sizes into her without rest.
Yan Dao had been silent throughout the entire caressing, but he had immediately joined in the fun the instant Yan Jing made his move! It was so traumatizing that her legs would tremble at the mere thought of their beastly hardness.
But her words had merely sent Yan Jing into a deep chuckle, before leaning down towards her exposed and tender bunnies, softly switching between both of her sensitive beans, making sure that they’re perfectly slathered with his saliva and they perked up prettily.
His palm moved slowly down her stomach just as she sucked in a loud gasp, “Ah~ Don’t!”
His long slender fingers found their way towards her abdomen, softly trailing her thighs with feathery touches before finally landing on her arose bud, constantly teasing her through her unstripped panties.
As the numb pleasure arises, Yan Luan instinctively moved her waist, intending to escape from the teasing fingers.
“Stay still, since Yan Dao isn’t here today, elder brother shall play a new game with our precious Ah Luan, I promise that you’ll be entertained and satisfied.”
The suspiciously arousing words were whispered directly into her ear, as he had been nibbling her ear when he had spoken, while his fingers were still hard at work below.
She could feel a sharp tingle running up her spine as his hot breath blew against her ears, though her main focus was still on the rising heat below, but still, her eyes had shot wide open at his words, as those were the promises of a devil.
There was one thing she feared the most in the world, and it was playing a ‘new game’ with Yan Jing!
“I don’t want that! I bet you’re going to insert some strange objects inside me again, I won’t be fooled this time!” He had already used grapes, jade bottles and paintbrushes, what now?!
But her words of refusal had instead brightened the excitement within his eyes, and it was a known fact that the prey could never escape an excited predator.
With a sweep of his arms, he carried her onto the huge bed before giving her love-marks filled bunnies a soft pinch.
“Ah Luan, let us begin~”
