Indecent!

He’s being indecent again!

Despite Liao Qing Qing thinking this way, she inched towards Emperor Jing Li’s face and gently touched his lips.

Before she could move back, Emperor Jing Li took the lead.

Very quickly, the two were entwined.

They separated after kissing for a while.

Liao Qing Qing’s watery eyes gazed at Emperor Jing Li.

Emperor Jing Li’s eyes were filled with lust, and it took a long time for him to calm down. A smile appeared on his dashing face. Just when he was about to kiss Liao Qing Qing’s fair and tender face again, Liao Qing Qing stopped him with her hands and said, “Your Majesty, this isn’t right.”

“What’s wrong with that?” Emperor Jing Li asked seriously.

“You are still going through the memorials.”

“I[1] am not doing that now.”

“Tell me, are you willing to be my Empress?”

“I’m willing,” Liao Qing Qing replied.

“Really?” Emperor Jing Li asked in surprise.

Liao Qing Qing thought a lot yesterday. Actually, it was not that the Emperor had disrupted the original owner’s life, but that the world had changed as soon as she transmigrated. Since she could not avoid right and wrong in the imperial harem, why couldn’t she become the head of the imperial harem and face these right and wrong? Hence, she was willing to stand by Emperor Jing Li’s side and treat this world cordially. She nodded in agreement. “Mm.”

""

With a faint smile on Emperor Jing Li’s face, he said, “That’s the right thing to do.”

“Is there anything this imperial concubine[2] has to do?” Once she accepted the position of the Empress, she had to act somewhat like an Empress, right?

“You don’t need to do anything. Leave it all to me and just wait to become the Empress,” Emperor Jing Li said.

“I don’t have to learn to be in charge of the imperial harem and such?”

Emperor Jing Li looked at Liao Qing Qing and said, “Those are all small things. With the Empress Dowager and Virtuous Consort around, you can learn everything.”

“That’s true.” Liao Qing Qing nodded her head.

As he saw Liao Qing Qing appeared to be deep in thoughts, but her appearance was not serious at all, but rather unspeakably dainty and lovely, he could not help but kiss Liao Qing Qing again.

Just then, Liao Qing Qing looked up and noticed his action. She was rendered utterly speechless by Emperor Jing Li.What was Emperor Jing Li’s head filled with when we talked about such a serious topic? She stopped Emperor Jing Li again and said, “Your Majesty, you haven’t had your meal yet.”

“Are you hungry?”

“A little.”

“Shall we eat together?”

“Mm.” Liao Qing Qing nodded and tried to get up, but Emperor Jing Li did not let her go. So she turned to Emperor Jing Li and said, “Your Majesty, let me go.”

""

Finally, Emperor Jing Li only let her go after kissing Liao Qing Qing passionately.

Liao Qing Qing got up and touched her cheeks. She turned back to glare at Emperor Jing Li, with an indescribably adorable appearance.

Emperor Jing Li laughed heartily.

Liao Qing Qing was so angry that she slapped Emperor Jing Li.

This made Emperor Jing Li laugh even more.

Liao Qing Qing ignored Emperor Jing Li, turned around and asked Fu Sheng to fetch water. She brought it to Emperor Jing Li, washed their hands together and sat down to have dinner together.

The dinner was prepared very lavishly.

Liao Qing Qing had a normal portion of food, but Emperor Jing Li had a huge appetite. He ate all the food in the food box. Liao Qing Qing had no choice but to ask, “Your Majesty, are you full?”

Emperor Jing Li replied, “I’m full.”

As Liao Qing Qing packed the food box, she said, “Then this imperial concubine will take her leave.”

Emperor Jing Li said, “Rest here tonight.”

“???”

“Why? You aren’t willing?” Emperor Jing Li asked with a raised eyebrow.

Liao Qing Qing answered truthfully, “This imperial concubine hasn’t brought any change of clothes yet.”

“Tell He Xiang to go back and fetch them.” Emperor Jing Li said towards the door, “He Xiang, your mistress is resting in Zhengqian Palace today. Go and fetch your mistress’s clothes.”

At the door, He Xiang answered happily, “yes,” and disappeared in a flash.

Emperor Jing Li looked at Liao Qing Qing. “Is that alright?”

Liao Qing Qing nodded her head.

This was the first time Liao Qing Qing visited and slept in Zhengqian Palace. Every item in Zhengqian Palace was imposing and dignified. It was indeed incomparable to Lisheng Pavilion especially—-the bed.

Big, wide and comfortable. It was not at all comparable to the Babu bed[3] in Lisheng Pavilion. In the end, Emperor Jing Li ran to Lisheng Pavilion to squeeze in with her.

Emperor Jing Li asked, “Do you like it here?”

Liao Qing Qing nodded.

“Then you will live here from now on.”

“???” Liao Qing Qing said, “Your Majesty, this is your palace.”

“It’s also yours.”

“Hasn’t Zhengqian Palace always been the palace of Your Majesty alone? The rules state that imperial concubines live in their respective palace courtyards.”

“Rules are also set by people. Moreover, I am the Emperor. I can change them whenever I want to.”

“….” Liao Qing Qing once again sighed with emotion. Luckily, Emperor Jing Li is not an incapable ruler. Otherwise, he could really destroy the heavens and the earth with his capricious streak and boundaryless thought patterns! The common people will suffer!

Emperor Jing Li added, “If you don’t like it, I will give you Zhengqian Palace or build you another palace.”

“No need. No need.” Liao Qing Qing hastily refused, “Your Majesty, there is no need to waste silver. It is fine for this imperial concubine to live in Lisheng Pavilion.”

“Lisheng Pavilion is too small.”

“It’s not small. It has two courtyards. And this imperial concubine likes Lisheng Pavilion.”

“Then let’s expand Lisheng Pavilion. If not, the baby will have no place to live when we have a baby in the future.”

“…..” He’s mentioning children again.

“Is it okay?”

“Okay.” You are the Emperor. You’re the most powerful.

""

“Then that’s settled. Let’s sleep.” Emperor Jing Li turned around and wrapped his arms around Liao Qing Qing again.

“??? Your Majesty, don’t you want to sleep?”

“I will kiss and touch you before going to sleep.”

“…. Your Majesty, was the wet patch on this imperial concubine’s bed sheet that day because you——”

“It was you.”

“It wasn’t this imperial concubine.”

“It was you who got it out for me.”

“…..”

“Beloved Concubine, let’s do it again.”

“Your Majesty, it’s easy to harm your body when you do it like this. Why don’t we wait for another ten days or so, and then….”

“We’ll talk about it when the time comes.”

“…. Your Majesty….”

“Qing Qing, come on, come on.”

“….”

He is too lewd.

Emperor Jing Li is too lewd.

When Liao Qing closed her eyes tiredly, she had this thought in her mind. She really didn’t want to sleep with Emperor Jing Li lately. It was too tortuous, and she wanted to stay away from him. She felt something warm and wet on her cheeks and forehead. It was Emperor Jing Li kissing her and holding her into his arms. She suddenly felt blissful in her heart again.

Soon, she fell into a sweet dream.
