Flames blazed in his eyes as he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
"Mmm mmm …" Shen Zhiqiao was forced to endure the sudden kiss.
However, the youth in front of her refused to let her go. He wrapped his arm around the back of her head and pulled her down. Even though she was clearly in a 'position of superiority', he could only give her a request.
Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes narrowed. His hand was still injured. Although this kind of injury was nothing to him, she still kept it in mind.
Shen Zhi Qiao held his face with both hands and said anxiously, "Tuoba Yu … "Ugh …"
Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes widened as he glared at the man in front of him.
With a light laugh, Tuoba Yu put her down. With one hand, he lifted her hands and placed them on the door, while with the other hand, he moved his hand at lightning speed to remove the sleeve around her neck …
Shen Zhi Qiao sat dazedly on a stool. With one hand, she caressed her lips. She still didn't believe that someone would let her off just like that …
His aura seemed to be floating in the room … Shen Zhi Qiao suddenly shook his head and stood up from his seat. He used his hands as a fan and started fanning himself.
He repeated the words he had said before he left, "This … This Emperor will come and find you tonight …"
That tone clearly meant … Desire!
The roots of his neck were red. After a long while, he let out a sigh of relief, put his hands down, turned around, and walked towards the door. But after a few steps, he stopped.
He looked down at his clothes. The layers were messy, and the belt around his waist even had a knot tied to it.
This... Was it the clothes he had to give her?!
Ye Zichen pursed his lips. Luckily, he didn't go out, otherwise, he would have to laugh out loud.
Although he thought this way, his heart felt as if it had eaten honey, and was somewhat sweet.
He turned around, changed his clothes, tidied himself up, and walked out.
When the guard at the door saw south, he immediately walked towards her, "Miss, it's already time for dinner. Can you bring it up now?"
Shen Zhi Qiao looked at the sky and nodded, "Yes, I am hungry too."
"This servant will instruct you right away!" As he spoke to the south, he began to head out.
"South!" Shen Zhiqiao called out to him.
"Miss, do you have any instructions?" He turned towards the south and lowered his head.
Shen Zhiqiao hesitated for a moment before asking, "Aside from the King of South Stream, do the other two noble young masters who went with the Emperor to Jade Moon Pavilion today, do they know who they are?"
He turned to the south and asked, "Miss, are you asking about the third prince of the Western Lion Country, Ji Cang Ye, and the thirteenth prince, Ji Lian Ye?!"
So it was the prince of the Western Lion Country who had come to visit. No wonder he …
Shen Zhiqiao blushed and asked, "When did they arrive?"
"Miss, today is the day." After pausing for a moment to the south, he continued, "Today, the emperor is hosting a banquet at the palace of the enthronement palace … We have just recruited a prince from the Western Lion Country. "
Shen Zhiqiao's lips twitched. She didn't ask where the emperor was, so why would he tell her?!
The redness on his face deepened as he covered his mouth to fake a cough. "I'm hungry …"
He lowered his head to the south and pursed his lips with a smile, "This servant will do it now."
Seeing him walk towards the south, Shen Zhi Qiao sat down on a stool in front of the table.
A glint flashed across his eyes as he sized up the layout of the room. He thought to himself, "I probably won't have peace tonight!"
After dinner, Shen Zhi Qiao asked Nan to prepare some things for her. After that, he shut himself in his room. It was so plain that he didn't know what he was doing.
He wanted to ask about it, but the few times he did, he swallowed his words back down his throat.
After a while, Shen Zhi Qiao carefully opened the door and squeezed out.
He just pushed the door open.
As he thought of this, he stepped forward and fiercely pushed the door open. Clang! A wooden basin filled with white mud mixed with dog blood covered his head. He froze there. After a long while, a mournful howl resounded throughout the hall.
Shen Zhi Qiao covered his ears, the wind blowing chaotically.
This was all done by her with great difficulty, what was he up to?!
But when she saw him, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
He pursed his lips and stepped forward. Then, he kindly helped him remove the wooden basin from his head and bit his lips as he looked at him.
His face was covered in red mud and blood, but the funny thing was that he was standing with his small eyes and mouth wide open, looking as if he had been struck by lightning.
Shen Zhiqiao immediately covered his mouth and hurriedly covered his stomach. He spun around on the spot and didn't dare to laugh out loud.
Xiang Nan almost cried, clenching her fists and not daring to speak.
Shen Zhiqiao didn't have enough time to waste. Although she didn't expect to experience it in the south, she was still quite satisfied with the results.
After that, Shen Zhi Qiao repeated his instructions to the south and left the room. He walked into the garden and did not come out again.
Yonghe Palace.
Tuoba Yu wasn't wearing a dragon robe as his beautiful red dress fell to the ground and his black hair was stuck out behind his ears. He sat upright in the middle of the hall with his slender fingers casually waving around the goblet, and his pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes revealed traces of a soul-devouring glow, showing off his good mood right now.
How could he not be happy?
All her actions today had revealed to him that she cared about him or that she had fallen in love with him. Perhaps she didn't love him as much as he did, but this news was enough to surprise him.
If it wasn't for the fact that he needed to help out the two princes of the Western Lion Country tonight, he definitely wouldn't have let her off so easily.
He rubbed his lips as the corners of his mouth curled up. The smile on his face couldn't help but leak out.
Those seated below him were all elites of the underworld, and they were all obvious at a glance.
The Third Prince of the Western Lion Country, Ji Cang Ye, raised his glass and said, "This goblet of wine is for the Emperor. Many thanks to the Emperor for his hospitality!"
Tuoba Yu still had a smile on his face as he casually raised his glass and said, "Third Prince and Thirteenth Prince came all the way here. This small welcoming banquet isn't anything much. Third Prince, there's no need to be polite."
With that said, he raised his cup and gulped it down.
Looking at the situation, Ji Cang Ye did not hesitate. Raising his head, he drank all the wine, put down his cup, and said again, "Cang Ye will be heading to the imperial court this time, and in these three months, Cang Ye will be troubling you!"
Tuoba Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "You're right. This half acre of land is enough for our vast Eastern Tomb Dynasty. The three emperors can stay as long as they want, but if the third prince lives in Eastern Tomb City and gets used to it, he can also stay in our Eastern Tomb Empire for his entire life, just like your little brother, Lanye."
Ji Cang Ye's face twitched, and laughed dryly, "Haha … "The Emperor is joking. One of the things that Cang Ye came to the Eastern Tomb Empire for this trip is to bring Lanye back …" He paused and stared at Tuoba Yu seriously. "I don't know what Your Majesty is thinking?"
He placed the bottle of water in his hand onto the table in front of him. His almond-shaped eyes glanced at Tuoba Yu as he said, "When the third prince asks me, I really don't know how to answer. The third prince can personally ask Lanye for his opinion. If he is willing, I won't force him to stay. If he isn't willing …" "No one can take him away!"
Ji Cangye's face turned stiff, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, someone whispered something in his ear. He could clearly see the killing intent in his eyes, and with a flick of his sleeve, he disappeared from the hall before he could blink.
