Chapter 60

  Everything today seems like someone is intentionally preventing her from returning to the Yi Wang Fu.

  Everything that happened today was so sudden and so urgent, especially the Empress's fainting incident.

  What she was most worried about in her heart was the Empress Dowager. As soon as she heard that the Empress Dowager had fainted, she would definitely be anxious.

  So, at that time, nothing was thought of, only thinking about entering the palace, but after entering the palace, it turned out to be an inexplicable farce, seemingly true and false, all things were clearly suspicious, but there was no evidence.

  But at noon, the problematic medicine made her worried, so she definitely waited until evening, but in the evening, there was no problem at all.

  Now, someone came to inform her that she didn't need to return to the mansion tonight because Xuan Yuan Ye wouldn't be back.

  Everything is connected, it's just not letting her return to the palace, so in the palace, there must be something that doesn't want her to know or can't let her know, or it's what Consort Rou said this morning.

  As for that matter, Rong Fei wanted to say it but didn't say it, and she didn't even tell the Empress Dowager.

  Was it really just because you were in a hurry and forgot?

  "Who told you to come and deliver the message?" Meng Fuying raised her eyes, looked at the little palace maid, and asked in a low voice.

  "It was a eunuch who came to inform us that someone from the palace had come to pass on a message." The little palace maid didn't understand Meng Cuiying's thoughts, she just spoke the truth.

  "Alright, I know. You can go now." Meng Fu Ying waved her hand to signal that she could leave first. It seemed that this message had been passed through many people already. After all, outsiders couldn't enter the palace, and if ordinary people were passing on messages, they would have to go through many layers. By the time it reached this layer, there was no way to investigate anything anymore.

  It's not a big deal, if Xuan Yuan Ye really had something important to attend to and someone came to inform her, it would be normal. After all, Xuan Yuan Ye knew that the Empress Dowager truly liked her, and she staying with the Empress Dowager was absolutely voluntary.

  This rumor sounds reasonable and makes sense.

  Moreover, so many things have happened on Empress Dowager's side today, and she was also thinking of staying behind. This way, it is even more natural.

  However, when she thought of his words, a doubt arose in her heart.

  He told her last night, "If I'm not by your side, no matter what happens, don't easily believe it, use your heart to judge, especially when it comes to things related to me."

  Or he had anticipated an accident all along, or he was just being cautious.

  But at this moment, she was moved.

  She wanted to see who was secretly plotting against her and what their true intentions were.

  "Where did Yan'er go today?" The empress dowager asked in a low voice after the maid left, her tone also filled with obvious worry. "What's going on that she can't even come back at night? Did she leave the city?"

  It was clear that the empress dowager did not suspect anything, but only worried about Xuan Yuan Ye's situation.

  "Meng Fu Ying wasn't quite clear either, earlier in the morning, Su Feng said something had happened and then left with him, maybe it's a bit of trouble. Meng Fu Ying slightly furrowed her brow, also somewhat worried, but her eyes were expressionless as she glanced at Lan Mei, who was standing aside with her head lowered, unable to see her facial expression."

  "Oh, you don't have to worry either, Meng Fu Ying's abilities are clear to you, nothing will happen." The Empress Dowager heard Meng Fu Ying say this and although she was worried in her heart, she turned around to comfort Meng Fu Ying instead.

  "Grandma Huang, Meng Fu is still a bit worried and wants to go back and take a look." Meng Fu Ying's eyebrows were furrowed even tighter, with a face full of worry.

  While speaking, his eyes also swept towards Lan Mei again.

  Lan Mei still lowered her eyes, without any reaction, as if she hadn't heard her words.

  Meng Fu's eyes widened slightly in surprise at Lan Mei's reaction, which was somewhat unexpected.

  "Go back? Since Rong'er is not in the mansion, what are you going to do by going back now? Why don't you stay here and keep the Empress Dowager company instead?" The Empress Dowager said hastily.

  The Empress Dowager's thoughts, Meng Fu Ying naturally understood, knowing that she had just gone to the Hou Wang Fu, there were not many people who could be trusted, and besides, in the Hou Wang Fu, there were not many people, nor were there many guards, and Xuan Yuan Ye was not around, the Empress Dowager was worried, it was not very safe for her to go back.

  "Well, since Empress Dowager says so, Meng Fu will stay and accompany Empress Dowager." Meng Fu Ying originally wasn't really going to leave anyway.

  Since someone deliberately didn't want her to return to the Wang Fu, then she would play along and see what that person wanted to do.

  She just wanted to see Lanmei's reaction and know if she was related to this matter, but Lanmei didn't have any reaction at all.

  Was she misunderstanding Lan Mei? Or did Lan Mei know the empress too well, knowing that the empress wouldn't let her go back, so she deliberately put on a calm face.

  She now feels that in this palace, there seems to be no one who can be trusted, except for the Empress Dowager. Even the Emperor's words have a hint of ambiguity and insincerity.

  "All right, all right. The Empress Dowager has ordered someone to tidy up the room next door for you. You can stay there tonight." A faint smile spread across the Empress Dowager's face.

  The room next door mentioned by the Empress Dowager is actually connected to her own room and is located on the left side of her room.

  "Hong'er, go and tidy up the room next to Ah Jia's. Change all the bedding into new ones." The Empress suddenly raised her voice slightly, instructing Hong'er outside.

  At this moment, Lan Mei was standing by her side, but she didn't instruct Lan Mei, instead she instructed Hong Er. It can be seen that in her heart, she still had doubts about Lan Mei, or it was also a deliberate test of Lan Mei.

  "Yes." The little red one outside responded in a low voice and then went to pick up things.

  Lan Mei slightly raised her head, looked at the empress for a moment, and her lips moved slightly as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately didn't speak.

  "Lan Mei, did you send dinner to Qing Zhu tonight?" Meng Fu Ying's eyes also turned to Lan Mei, asking somewhat casually.

  "I was originally going to send it off, but Hong'er said she would go, so I didn't go. It was Hong'er who sent it," Lan Mei replied respectfully.

  Meng Fu Ying's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily, Hong Er this little girl, wouldn't have really fallen for him, would she?

  Meng Fu Ying didn't say anything else, Lan Mei then attended to the Empress Dowager's bath and helped her change clothes.

  In the evening, Meng Fu Ying accompanied the Empress Dowager for a while before returning to the room that the Empress Dowager had arranged for her.

  Only a pair of eyes, however, stared straight at the bed curtains, without any sleepiness.

  I don't know what Xuan Yuan Ye is doing now, can he really not return to the Wang Fu?

  Inside the Hou Yi Wang Fu. At midnight.

  Xuanyuan Ye hurried back, and in the still of the night, the King's mansion looked no different from usual.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes flickered slightly, and those women must have been sent away by her. With her intelligence, that small matter wouldn't be difficult for her to handle.

  As he walked towards the main house, he saw a faint light coming from inside. A slight smile involuntarily floated to his lips, and he hadn't expected that she was still waiting for him.

  His heart also added a few more warm intentions, knowing that someone was waiting for him, caring about him, and it was such a happy thing.

  His footsteps quickened involuntarily, but when he reached the door, he was afraid she might be asleep and didn't want to wake her up. So, he deliberately made less noise, slowly pushed open the door, and walked in quietly.

  Inside the room, the light was somewhat dim. Under the light, a woman slightly leaned on the table, apparently asleep.

  Because she was bent over the table, her appearance couldn't be seen.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes flashed a hint of heartache, she actually fell asleep just like that. Fortunately, it was summer now, if it were winter, she might have caught a chill.

  Because his movements were very light, so he didn't wake her up, she was still quietly leaning on the table.

  Xuanyuan Ye slowly walked in, but when he reached the middle of the room, he suddenly stopped.

  Although he couldn't see her face and the room was a bit dimly lit, he still discovered that the person leaning on the table wasn't her.

  Not her! So where did she go? And who is this woman?

  One swift step forward, and he gave a sharp tug at the woman.

  That woman, originally drowsy from sleep, was pulled by him and suddenly rolled onto the ground. Dazed and confused, she opened her eyes to see the person in front of her clearly, and suddenly woke up with a start. She knelt on the ground repeatedly, "Your servant greets Your Highness."

  "What kind of person are you?" Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes shot out a cold light, directly at the woman, as if to freeze her instantly.

  "Back, back to Your Highness, I was sent by Concubine Rou this morning." The woman, still somewhat quick-witted, managed to respond with a complete sentence under Xuan Yuan Ye's icy gaze.

  Xuanyuan powder was slightly stunned. He thought those women had been sent away by her, how could they still be here? And also in his room?

  "You have a big nerve, daring to sleep in my room?" Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes narrowed slightly. Even if she stayed in the palace, she absolutely couldn't be in his room. This slave girl really had quite some guts.

  "Go back, Your Highness. The queen ordered me to wait for you in your room and told me to serve you well."

  That girl's voice became softer as she spoke, initially with some fear, but by the end, there was a hint of shyness and also a hint of expectation.

  She is really good-looking, with a standard melon-shaped face, a pair of bright and shiny big eyes, small and delicate red lips, but extremely plump and sexy, pure and innocent, yet with a few hints of seductive charm.

  At this moment, under the dim light, it has become more ambiguous and tempting.

  She had obviously bathed and changed her clothes, at this moment, she was only wearing a very thin shirt, and inside, she was only wearing a big red bellyband, the outer shirt was really too thin, it couldn't cover anything, even the embroidered flowers on the red bellyband could be seen clearly.

  Her full breasts made that red bellyband stand out straight, as if it was about to burst out, with a kind of unstoppable momentum.

  She was now kneeling on the ground, her body slightly trembling, whether unintentionally or intentionally, her body leaned forward again, and the strap on her belly wrap had apparently not been tied tightly, and it actually fell off.

  And her full breasts finally popped out, even the red cherry was faintly visible.

  At this moment, I don't know if she was afraid, her body trembled slightly, and her chest also trembled slightly, adding a few more temptations.

  In such a situation, I'm afraid any normal man would have pounced on her.

  However, in Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes, there was only an icy coldness that had reached its extreme. He slightly stretched out his hand, picked up a cup from the table, and directly smashed it onto her head. Instantly, the girl's forehead started to ooze fresh blood.

  "You really have a big nerve, in front of me, the king, you still dare to tell lies." Xuan Yuan Ye's voice at this moment was like the icy cold of winter, each word carrying a chilling frost.

  That girl was hit on the forehead by Xuan Yuan Ye's thrown pillow, and she cried out in pain, repeatedly patted the ground, and trembled to say, "Your Highness, I didn't lie, it was really the princess who asked me to serve you. The princess arranged us a few in the backyard and ordered me to come and serve you."

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes sank again, and this little girl kept saying that it was Fu'er who let her in his room.

  This woman is in his room, where's the child?

  "What about the princess?" Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes narrowed again, his cold voice carrying a few more parts of terrifying danger.

  "The princess said she would move to the empress dowager's place to live. So, she ordered the maidservants to serve Your Highness well." The maid, hearing Xuan Yuan Ye's question at this moment, straightened up again and trembled as she spoke.

  Just because she fell straight to the ground, that red bellyband had already fallen completely, and everything in front of her chest was no longer covered. The fullness of her chest, under the thin and transparent outer shirt, added a few more ambiguous temptations.

  Her body was trembling even more violently at this moment, and her full breasts were also heaving violently.

  Perhaps out of fear, her face was adorned with a few tears, adding to her pitiful and lovely appearance. A beautiful young woman, with an air of innocence and loveliness, yet also exuding a seductive charm that could gnaw at one's bones.

  Such a woman is afraid that even the person who chooses her has also spent a lot of effort.

  However, Xuan Yuan Ye didn't even glance at her, and even if he did, she wouldn't have had the slightest impact on him. This woman was far inferior to the princess of the Da Yu dynasty back then.

  "Get out, get out of my sight." In Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes, at this moment, there was only coldness, no other emotions, let alone the desire provoked by that woman.

  That woman seemed to be completely stunned, possibly she didn't expect that Xuan Yuan Ye could remain unmoved towards her like this.

  "Don't let me see you again, or else..." Xuan Yuan Ye said coldly once more, his voice icy enough to congeal blood, with a clear intent to kill. If he didn't want to get to the bottom of things, he would not have spared her.

  The woman seemed to have finally realized Xuan Yuan Ye's ruthlessness, quickly scrambled up and rushed out. As she ran, her belly wrap completely fell off, and the thin, transparent shirt couldn't cover anything.

  Upon hearing the voice, Swiftwind rushed over and saw her appearance, his eyes slightly widened in surprise, but he soon shook his head silently, another pitiful woman.

  That woman, after leaving the main house, ran straight into the backyard. Su Feng saw it and slightly raised an eyebrow. Unexpectedly, on a day when the prince was not in the palace, there were women in the backyard of the palace. It's really interesting.

  "Your Highness, that woman went to the backyard. The women who were sent by Consort Rou this morning have all moved into the backyard." Su Feng walked into the room and reported in a low voice to Xuan Yuan Ye, pausing slightly before continuing cautiously, "I didn't see the princess. The servants said she left for He Shou Palace early this morning and hasn't returned yet."

  "En." Xuan Yuan Ye responded in a low voice, his face growing increasingly gloomy, his hands also involuntarily clenching into fists.

  Those women stayed in the Wang Fu, but she actually went to the Empress Dowager's place.

  Was it she who let those women move into the backyard? Would she really have let that woman come into her room?

  Given her strong personality, it is highly likely that she would do such a thing. As she herself said, if he had another woman, she would absolutely give up the position of Empress.

  All of this is indeed in line with her style.

  It's fake to say you're not angry, anyone would be angry if they were in this situation.

  She agreed to those women on his behalf and even arranged for them to enter the palace, and one of them was in his room, saying that she wanted to serve him well. What did that woman want to do?

  Xuanyuan Ye only felt a surge of anger rising in his heart. At this moment, if she were standing in front of him, he might not be able to control himself and would directly strangle her to death.

  But he felt that there was some kind of conspiracy in this matter. Calming down, his eyes sank again, shouldn't he believe her? Since she said she would accept him, then she should have agreed to that matter without hesitation.

  He didn't even ask her, how could he make such a conclusion, although these things linked together are indeed too easy to be misunderstood.

  "Su Feng, stay outside and don't leave." Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes flashed slightly as he suddenly gave a low command to Su Feng.

  Swift Wind looked at him with some strange and inexplicable gaze.

  "This king will enter the palace for a trip." Xuan Yuan Ye saw his confusion and said again in a low voice, "You are only responsible for guarding this king's room, no one is allowed to approach, as for other things, don't bother with them."

  "Yes, Speedy understands." Speedy replied repeatedly, but shouted somewhat anxiously, "However, Your Highness, are you alone?"

  But before he could finish speaking, Xuan Yuan Ye had quickly flashed out of the room and disappeared into the darkness.

  In the Kawasumi Palace, it was also a moment of silence. A figure quickly flashed in, paused slightly in the courtyard, and then quickly flashed into a room.

  There was no light in the room, but through the hazy moonlight, he saw the person sleeping soundly on the bed and a faint smile floated at the corner of his lips.

  This one is his woman.

  She quietly walked to the bedside, took off her clothes and slipped under the covers.

  "Ah!" Meng Fuying was sleeping drowsily in her bed, when suddenly someone slipped in, and in a daze, she subconsciously let out a cry of surprise.

  "It's me." Xuan Yuan Ye quickly covered her mouth and said in a low voice. At this moment, he didn't know if it was because he was too hasty, but instead of using "Ben Wang", he used "I".

  Although Xuan Yuan covered her mouth and didn't let her voice shout out completely, the front part of the exclamation still startled Lan Mei who was sleeping in the empress dowager's room.

  Because Lan Mei's bed was right next to Meng Fu Ying's bedroom at this moment.

  "What's wrong, Princess?" Lan Mei had extremely good hearing and because she was supposed to take care of the Empress Dowager at night, she didn't dare sleep too soundly. As soon as she heard Meng Xueling's shout, she quickly got up and asked cautiously.

  Xuanyuan Ye looked at her with a hint of disappointment, this woman was usually calm and composed, no matter how dangerous the situation, she would never make a sound, but unexpectedly, she shouted out loud this time, didn't she feel that it was him?

  This man, his personality is really overbearing. He sneaked into someone's home in the middle of the night and got under their bed sheets, then blamed them for shouting when they were startled. If it had been anyone else, they would have screamed loudly.

  "It's nothing, I just saw a mouse, but it has already gone into the hole, so it's fine now." Meng Fu Ying realized it was Xuan Yuan Ye and secretly let out a sigh of relief, slightly moving away from Xuan Yuan Ye's hand as she softly explained.

  It's just that when looking at Xuan Yuan Ye's gaze that was so fierce it could kill her, she couldn't help but feel a little amused in her heart.

  "Oh." Lan Mei softly responded with a single word, then lay back down again.

  "Am I a mouse?" Xuan Yuan Ye gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, whispering into her ear. His tone was laced with a hint of anger. This woman actually called him a mouse.

  However, thinking of the next sentence she said, it had already gone through the hole and was secretly amused. She really could say anything, so wouldn't this quilt become a mouse hole?

  Meng Fu Ying saw his extremely depressed look, and smiled softly. His body had already pressed down on her, fiercely, with a slightly punitive kiss that also contained her smile. Until he kissed her to the point where she was almost out of breath, he slowly let go of her.

  Then he leaned in close to her ear again and said softly, "This king is a mouse, what are you?"

  "You're a mouse, what business do you have with me?" Meng Fu Ying said dully, panting slightly from the kiss. This man was addicted to kissing her, and every time it was so sudden that she didn't even have a chance to dodge, yet somehow she always ended up getting kissed into a daze...

  "He." Xuan Yuan's hot breath condensed, his lips stuck to her ear, suddenly slightly open, those neat white teeth biting her earlobe with a hint of punishment.

  Meng Fu's shadow almost shouted out loud, he didn't use too much force, the bite wasn't very painful, but the earlobe was an extremely sensitive place, being bitten like that, she only felt a strange numbness spreading throughout her body, her body seemed to suddenly soften.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes, however, emitted an unusual glow, it turned out that this was a very sensitive spot for this woman, hehe...

  Feeling her strangeness, in his light laughter, his teeth did not leave, but instead lightly rubbed against her earlobe.

  Meng Fu's body showed more and more abnormalities, as if there was a desire to release something, but it just couldn't be released.

  She exerted a gentle force to push him away, but somehow she couldn't budge him. She didn't dare use too much strength either, fearing that more noise would be made and alert Lan Mei. If they were discovered by the empress later on, it would be troublesome.

  Xuanyuan Ye calculated that she didn't dare to move, not wanting to disturb the Empress Dowager. Therefore, his movements became even more unrestrained, and it wasn't just his teeth grinding against her earlobe, but also his tongue occasionally, seemingly unintentionally yet intentionally touching her earlobe.

  "Xuanyuan Ye......" Meng Yueying really couldn't take it anymore, and softly cried out. Her faint voice carried a hint of pleading, and seemed to have a slightly strange low moan, which instead made Xuanyuan Ye's body involuntarily tense up.

  Xuanyuan Ye finally let her go, his lips slowly moving to her face, facing her, knowing what she meant, but intentionally saying, "What's wrong? Are you thinking of this king..."

  In that low, ambiguous voice, there was a hint of intentionality, and at this moment, although there was no light, he could still feel her charm, his body involuntarily tensing up. At this moment, he didn't know whether she was punishing herself or him.

  "Didn't you say you weren't coming back? Didn't you say I wasn't allowed to return to the Wang Manor? How did you end up here again? Are you hiding a woman in the manor and don't want me to see her?" Meng Cuiying glared at him fiercely, then said with a hint of embarrassment.

  Xuanyuan Ye's body stiffened slightly, and then his eyes stared straight at her, not speaking for a long time. In the darkness, it was impossible to see the expression on his face. All that could be heard was that his breathing seemed to have a strange feeling.

  "What? Won't I be right?" Meng Cuiying was also stunned for a moment, then said tentatively.

  She had already guessed beforehand that there might be something in the Wang Fu that they didn't want her to know.

  But what she just said was completely casual and nonsense, it's just that seeing Xuan Yuan Ye's reaction, her heart sank slightly.

  It can't be that coincidental for her to have said it, right?

  "It's not just one woman." Xuan Yuan Ye heard her words, but suddenly laughed, laughing a bit strangely, and what he said was even stranger.

  But in his tone, there was a hint of relief, he said he knew she wouldn't agree to that for him.

  "What?" Meng Wushuang was stunned, and her words sounded again, with a few more dull feelings. What does it look like to be just one woman, could there be several women hidden?

  "Didn't you agree on behalf of the king to accept the four women sent by Concubine Ming and the others yesterday? But this morning, Her Majesty the Queen Mother had all four women sent into the palace?"

  Xuanyuan Ye spoke softly again, but his lips were slightly curled up with a hint of a smile.

  Although I knew it wasn't what she promised, I still wanted to tease her and see how she would react when she found out about this.

  "What...what did you say?" Meng Cuishan, who was usually calm and articulate, stuttered.

  Her voice was also filled with incredulity, when did she agree, yesterday she clearly refused.

  And she didn't see those four women this morning either?

  But then she suddenly froze, thinking of what happened this morning when Ru Fei left for the Wang Fu so early and said something inexplicable to Xuan Yuan Ye in front of her.

  At this moment, I finally understood, completely understood.

  It turned out that Rong Fei went to the Hou Wang Fu this morning to send a woman, so what Rong Fei said to Xuan Yuan Ye before can also be explained now.

  It seems that what Rong Fei said at that time also gave people another misunderstanding.

  "What's wrong, did I say something wrong? Besides, didn't the queen instruct a maid to serve me well in my room? I just came from the palace."

  He paused for a moment and then deliberately said, "To say, the queen's vision is really good, that woman is indeed..."

  He didn't even give that woman a proper look, and had no idea what she looked like.

  At that time, he found it wasn't her, he couldn't help but want to kill the woman, only because he felt something was off about the situation, so he endured and didn't do it.

  Meng Fu Ying hesitated for a moment, hearing him wanting to speak but stopping himself, and subconsciously asked, "Then what?"

  "What then?" Xuan Yuan Ye's eyebrows slightly raised, intentionally asking, but he felt that her slightly dazed expression added a few more points of amusement in his heart.

  "What did I ask and what happened then?" Meng Fuyao's voice suddenly had a few more parts of low tone.

  He wouldn't really take that woman, would he? Thinking of this possibility, she suddenly felt a suffocating feeling in her heart, extremely uncomfortable.

  "Then it's just as the princess thought......" Xuan Yuan Ye said again on purpose, he just wanted to see.

  Now she, towards him, will she have some feelings or not? Even if it's not love at first sight, but having a little feeling is also good, even if it's just a bit of possessiveness.

  Meng Fu Ying didn't speak again, her eyes fixed straight on him, but unfortunately, in the darkness, she couldn't see the expression on his face.

  Her arm suddenly stretched out, quickly wrapped around his neck, and gently pulled him towards herself.

  Xuanyuan's eyes widened slightly as a thread of excitement flashed through his mind. No way? Was this woman going to take the initiative to kiss him?

  This reaction was truly beyond his expectations, but also a pleasant surprise. He hadn't expected her to take the initiative to kiss him, and his heart was filled with joyful anticipation.

  However, Meng Fu Ying pulled him close but didn't kiss him. Instead, he leaned in close to his body and sniffed slightly for a moment before letting go of him.

  Xuan Yuan Ye was both puzzled and depressed. He didn't understand what she meant by this.

  And after she let him go, she gently patted his shoulder and softly said, "Go down, I want to sleep."

  Cut, wanting to cheat her, wanting to mislead her, is she so easy to deceive?

  Xuanyuan Ye couldn't help but press down on her body even more, his voice low as he asked, "What's with this reaction?"

  I originally thought I would see her being jealous, but unexpectedly, she reacted so calmly. Could it be that she really doesn't care at all?

  "Is this a normal reaction? What kind of reaction do you want me to have?" Meng Cuo Ying lightly swept him with her eyes, saying calmly.

  Every time I'm calculated by him, every time I'm plotted against by him. This time, no matter what, I must avenge this grudge.

  "Normal reaction?" Xuan Yuan Ye's anger grew, normal reaction, this is her normal reaction. The anger in his heart surged again. This woman actually dared to say it was a normal reaction.

  "Yes, what's wrong?" Meng Cuiying slightly raised an eyebrow, her voice was as innocent as possible, but a faint smile floated in her eyes, which Xuan Yuan Ye couldn't see in the darkness.

  "Meng Fu Ying……" Xuan Yuan Ye gritted his teeth and growled in a low voice, word by word, but dared not to shout too loudly, fearing that he would startle others. Only the anger burning in his eyes could hardly be contained from directly incinerating her.

  Meng Fu Ying was suppressing her laughter with great effort, thoroughly enjoying the sight of this man on the verge of losing his composure. So, he also has moments when he's being played, haha...

  But Meng Buru was obviously delighted too early, and Xuan Yuan Ye was not the kind of person who would give up easily.

  Suddenly, his body pressed against her even harder, his lips close to her ear again, saying in a low voice, "Do you believe that I will have you right now?"

  Although he was just angry, and although the room was very dark at this moment, he still felt it, the woman's secretly gloating. She was so pleased that she had forgotten her shape, and her pleasure also made him understand that he had been deceived by this woman.

  "This is the He Shou Palace." Meng Cui Ying's body stiffened slightly, then lowered his voice and said, clearly not intimidated. This was not the Yi Wang Fu, but the He Shou Palace, where the Empress Dowager was just next door. If he made even a slightly louder noise, he would definitely alarm them.

  She was sure he wouldn't dare to be reckless either.

  "This king is not afraid of startling the empress dowager, and besides, the empress dowager is eager to hold her great-grandson. If she knew, I don't know how happy she would be." Xuan Yuan Ye naturally understood her thoughts.

  The corners of his lips slightly curled up, and he whispered in her ear again. The low voice had a few intentional ambiguities, and his lips once again covered her earlobe. One hand slowly moved to her chest...

  "As long as you don't shout too loudly and don't wake up everyone in the Quanhe Temple, it's fine." Xuan Yuan Ye's lips were against her earlobe, so his voice was a bit muffled, but what he said made Meng Cui Ying choke with anger.

  This man has always been arrogant and overbearing, never caring about others' opinions. No one can guarantee that he won't actually do something rash. Moreover, if the Empress Dowager is really alerted, as long as he speaks up, she'll know it's him, and maybe she won't ask any more questions, letting him have his way.

  "Alright." Meng Fu Ying saw that he actually still wanted to untie her clothes, so she lowered her voice again and shouted "Stop". Okay, she admitted defeat, because she was no match for this man's cunning.

  Xuanyuan Ye's lips slowly curled up into a faint smile, his hand that was about to untie her clothes paused, but still held onto her earlobe, showing no intention of letting go.

  She bit down gently once again, reminding her not to play any tricks.

  "You, there's no womanly scent on you." Meng Fu Ying said frankly at this moment, although she was extremely depressed, but she knew that in front of this man, she couldn't gain the upper hand.

  "Huh?" Xuan Yuan Ye suddenly lifted his face after hearing her words, staring straight at her. For a moment, it seemed as if he didn't understand what she meant. What did she mean by saying there was no woman's scent on him?

  "There's no scent of any other woman on you, only a stench of sweat." Meng Fu Ying looked at him, saying with a hint of disappointment and a few hints of intentional disgust.

  Just now when she pulled him close, on his body, there was no smell of a woman. If he had just touched a woman, it would be impossible for there to be not even a hint of scent. Moreover, on his body, there was a distinct smell of sweat. Of course, the word "stinky" was her malicious addition.

  The obvious smell of sweat proved that he hadn't taken a shower yet today, so she knew he hadn't touched that woman.

  Actually, she didn't suspect him of hitting on that woman at the time, but subconsciously, she had an unusual reaction.

  Since she was certain he hadn't touched her, she naturally wouldn't be anxious anymore.

  Xuanyuan Ye was stunned again, and then smiled half-truly and half-falsely, "The princess's nose is really spiritual. From now on, I won't be able to do anything bad outside."

  Only she could think of this method, and her nose was indeed sensitive enough. Thinking that she had heard his words and still had feelings, at least she went to confirm first. If she really didn't care, she wouldn't have gone to confirm. Her heart felt a bit more comfortable then.

  "That's natural, if I really found out, there would be no room for negotiation." Meng Cuiying also said with a playful tone, but also with a few serious words, if Xuan Yuan Ye really had another woman, then between him and her, there would be no possibility again, because in her love, not even half a grain of sand could be tolerated.

  Xuanyuan Ye tightened his grip on her arm, putting away the playful tone he had just used, and said seriously, "You have to believe me."

  This time, he didn't use his usual tone, but instead used mine, making his words sound more gentle and sincere.

  Meng Fu Ying let him hold her tightly, although it was a bit too tight that she almost couldn't breathe, but the corners of her lips still curled up with a faint gentle smile.

  At this moment, she felt a kind of happy emotion.

  "What happened today was someone intentionally trying to create discord between us." Xuan Yuan Ye still held her tightly, saying in a low voice that if he had believed the woman's words earlier at the Wang Fu, or if he had been angry and only thought of blaming her, resenting her, without coming to the imperial palace to verify the truth, he might have really fallen into that person's trap.

  That man, first stopped her from returning to the palace, then pretended to be on her behalf, arranged a woman in his room, and let that woman try her best to seduce him. Everything was carefully planned, and every step was meticulously calculated.

  He didn't expect that not only was he not seduced by that woman, but he also entered the palace and met Meng Cuiying.

  In fact, he had planned everything out well, just to prevent the two of them from meeting. Once they met, things would be clear.

  "En, I know that the Empress Dowager's side has also experienced many things." Meng Fuying's face also became more solemn, and she carefully told Xuan Yuan Ye about what had happened in Shou Gong today.

  Xuanyuan Ye's face also became increasingly gloomy after hearing this, it seems that person's plan was indeed flawless.

  Everything seems accidental, but it's actually tightly connected one thing after another.

  The only thing he didn't count on was the understanding and trust between her and him.

  He believes this thing is not over yet, and the real show is still in the back?

  "Accompanying the king to perform a play, how is it?" Xuan Yuan Ye slightly shifted his body, transferring some of the weight that was pressing down on her.

  In the low voice, there were a few more unusual light laughs, and the words paused slightly before continuing, "To say acting, it was originally your strong point, I believe that when the time comes, it will be very wonderful."

  "Cut, if we're talking about acting, I'm no match for you." Meng Fuying heard her words and immediately protested in dissatisfaction.

  The man also said she would act, and every time he did it, even she was deceived by him.

  "Heh heh." Xuan Yuan Ye let out a low, gentle laugh, but didn't dare to laugh too loudly, so it only sounded like a kind of muffled feeling.

  "Then let's act together and see who performs better." He didn't deny her words, indeed, in front of her, he could safely reveal his other side, but before it was just to tease her, this time, however, it was to catch the person behind.

  That man designed it, and they will follow his plan.

  "Alright, no problem." Meng Cui Ying agreed this time, surprisingly readily, but in her heart, she was a bit worried.

  She had some doubts about Rong Fei in her heart, after all, it was Rong Fei who sent the woman to King Yi's mansion this morning.

  Even if Xuan Yuan Ye's departure was just a coincidence and had nothing to do with Rong Fei, why didn't Rong Fei tell her about those women?

  Is it really just that simple to forget? Moreover, after entering the palace, not a word was mentioned about that matter. Even if one were to temporarily forget, it's impossible for it to not be remembered at all in a single day.

  However, at the time, only she was in the Wang Fu, and only she could calculate all the time, letting Xuan Yuan Ye leave, and also allowing her to enter the palace without seeing those women.

  However, Ruo Fei was after all Xuan Yuan Ye's birth mother, so she couldn't very well voice the suspicions in her heart. Everything would have to wait until the truth of the matter came out.

  "Well, I believe that my woman will not disappoint me." Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes floated with a few points of doting smile, and his voice was also full of gentleness.

  One hand gently pinched her nose, with a few more parts of indulgence.

  Meng Fu Ying heard his gentle words, and her heart also added a few more warm intentions. Who said that this man was like an ice cube? Have you ever seen such a gentle ice cube?

  Completely forgot, saying others are ice blocks, it seems like a certain woman herself.

  "Shh..." He suddenly leaned down again, his lips slightly close to her ear, whispering softly, with a hint of tenderness in his voice.

  "En." Meng Fu Ying responded softly, it seemed like he was calling her name for the first time, and suddenly discovered that his own name, paired with his magnetic voice, had a few more unusual feelings.

  "How long do you want me to wait?" He tightened his arm around her again, and said with a hint of melancholy. Tian Tian was lying in his arms, and she was the woman he liked, but he couldn't do anything about it, which was really a kind of cruel torture.

  "Hmm, let me think." Meng Fu Ying slightly raised an eyebrow, then pretended to think for a moment. Afterwards, she stretched out her fingers and seriously counted them one by one: "One, two, three, four, five... ten." After counting all ten fingers, she stopped.

  Actually, Xuan Yuan Ye originally just wanted to vent her frustrations, but she didn't expect that she would be so serious and even counted on her fingers with a straight face. She couldn't help but lean in slightly, looking at her with some expectation, and when she stopped counting at ten, she said with a hint of delight, "Ten days."

  If it's just ten days, he can wait.

  "Ten years." Meng Wu Ying's red lips moved slightly, saying one word at a time. After finishing, she strongly held back her smile.

  Waiting for his reaction.

  As expected, she immediately felt Xuan Yuan Ye's obvious anger. Although his face couldn't be seen in the darkness, she could completely imagine it - at this moment, Xuan Yuan Ye's entire face was definitely black with rage.

  "Alright, very well, ten years. I'll let you know how long my ten years are." Xuan Yuan Ye was indeed overbearing and also shameless. His words meant that this time limit was set by him as well.

  As they spoke, his slightly raised body suddenly pounced on her, pressing her down fiercely. Then, his lips also domineeringly kissed her.

  However, because he was momentarily excited and forgot to control his strength, he used too much force and also made a clear noise.

  "Ying Yaotou, what's that noise over there?" Unexpectedly, this time it startled the Empress Dowager. The old lady was already a light sleeper, and since the Empress Dowager had been keeping an eye on Meng Cuiying's side, the sudden movement startled her awake.

  Xuanyuan Ye and Meng Muying's bodies stiffened, Xuanyuan Ye's kiss also stopped involuntarily.

  She pushed him away with a wave of her hand and said, "A mouse is a mouse." It was still the same old excuse, because for the time being, she really couldn't think of a better reason.

  Xuanyuan Ye glared at her fiercely again, but this time, he didn't dare to make another sound.

  "Mouse, mouse, how come you make such a big noise?" The empress dowager might have just woken up, somewhat dazed, and asked Meng Fu Ying's words with a hint of puzzlement.

  "Yes, it's a very big mouse." Meng Cuiying's lips twitched violently before she spoke again.

  "Your Highness, shall I go and catch the mouse for you, lest it disturb Your Highness again?" Lan Mei said slowly from next door, clearly also awake.

  This time, Meng Bujing's lips twitched again, and she caught the mouse. Did she catch it?

  Xuanyuan Ye's hand on her waist also exerted a slight, punitive force, which was just the excuse she had been looking for.

  "It's okay, it's okay." Meng Fuying was also afraid that Lan Mei would really come over. After all, she still had some doubts about Lan Mei in her heart. "Tonight, let's not bother with him for now. Tomorrow, we'll find some rat poison..." Xuan Yuan Ye's hand on her waist tightened slightly, and Meng Fuying quickly changed her tune, saying, "Alright, it's too late, go to sleep."

  The empress dowager heard that she was all right and also felt relieved, then lay back down to sleep.

  "You heartless woman." Xuan Yuan Ye glared at her fiercely, gritting his teeth and saying in a low voice, listening to what she had just said, calling him an old mouse was one thing, but actually wanting to find rat poison to kill him, how did he end up liking such a heartless woman.

  "Go to sleep, or else you'll really have to catch mice if you disturb them again." Meng Fu Ying automatically ignored his anger and said softly, thinking that he had just used this to threaten her, originally, he was also afraid.

  Of course, she knew that Xuan Yuan Ye was just afraid that others would discover him and ruin their plan.

  Xuanyuan Ye didn't say anything else, he just held her hand and seemed to hold it even tighter.

  The next day, Meng Fuying woke up and Xuan Yuan Ye had already left.

  Thinking of last night's events, Meng Bufei's lips curled up into a faint smile, Mouse, haha.

  "Your Highness, you're awake." Lan Mei had obviously heard Meng Fu Ying get out of bed and asked in a low voice from outside.

  "En, qi lai le." Meng Fu Ying responded in a low voice, but the corners of her eyebrows involuntarily furrowed slightly. Lan Mei's ears were really too sharp.

  After Meng Fuying opened the door, Lanmei had someone bring in water for her to wash and comb her hair.

  After tidying up, she went to the Empress Dowager's room. The Empress Dowager was already up and sitting in a chair, while Hong'er was combing her hair. Although the Empress Dowager was already in her sixties, her hair was still very good, with not many white hairs.

  "Shadow girl, you're late yesterday, weren't you disturbed by that mouse and didn't sleep well? The empress dowager also didn't know that there would be mice in that room." The empress dowager said softly as she saw her come in, with a hint of regret in her voice.

  "Well, it's fine. There were just a few disturbances at the beginning, but then nothing was heard again." Meng Fu Ying was shocked in her heart, not expecting the Empress Dowager to still remember this matter.

  "Get Lan Mei to get some rat poison today, or else we'll be bothered again tonight." The empress dowager said seriously.

  Meng Fu Ying's lips twitched slightly, can your rat poison kill that 'rat'?

  He released rat poison, he wants to make trouble, still making trouble as usual.

  However, at this moment, she could only follow Empress Dowager's words and say, "Alright, I'll let Lan Mei handle it later."

  Lan Mei happened to be walking in at this moment and immediately added, "I'll go get some later."

  Meng Fu's heart secretly laughed, if Xuan Yuan Ye knew about it, the whole family would want to poison him to death, I wonder what his reaction would be?

  Meng Fu Ying didn't tell Empress Dowager about what Xuan Yuan Ye told her last night, fearing that she would worry.

  "You go and pay your respects to Empress Yu for a while." After Hong'er finished combing the hair of the empress dowager, she turned around, looked at Meng Cuiying, and said softly.

  Since she didn't return to Shou Gong Palace, in the morning, she should naturally go to pay her respects to Empress Dowager Yu first. After all, Empress Dowager Yu was Xuan Yuan Ye's birth mother.

  If so, going late would be better, as Consort Rong would arrive here and seeing her would be even more unfavorable.

  "Alright, Meng Fu will go now." Meng Fu Ying nodded slightly in response. In fact, she was also thinking of going to Rong Fei's side. The etiquette in the imperial palace was extremely strict, and they couldn't let people gossip.

  Moreover, she was also guessing that if yesterday's events were really related to Rong Fei, perhaps they were waiting for her over there.

  Out of the Shou Palace, Meng Cuiying walked straight towards the Rouxin Palace. Along the way, small palace maids and eunuchs would occasionally pass by, and upon seeing her, they would all bow in greeting.

  At this time, the masters of various palaces got up, and these slaves also started to get busy. Especially some little eunuchs, mainly for the masters to explore the wind in all directions.

  It's not far from Hejiu Palace to Rouxin Palace, and Meng Cuo didn't walk for long before he arrived.

  After entering, I saw that Rong Fei was sitting on a chair, with a small palace maid standing behind her, gently patting her back.

  " Meng Fu pays respects to Her Majesty." Meng Fu Ying slowly walked forward and bowed respectfully.

  "Huh, Fu'er, why are you up so early?" The gentle consort got up and helped her up, saying with a hint of surprise, seemingly unaware that she had stayed in the He Shou Palace last night.

  It's just that I don't know if he really doesn't know or is just pretending not to.

  "Yesterday, Your Highness didn't return to the mansion, so she sent someone to tell me to stay overnight at Heshou Palace. So, I didn't go back yesterday." Whether she really didn't know or was pretending not to know, Meng Fuying still said what she had thought out in her mind.

  "Oh, I see." The gentle princess smiled slightly and said softly, then pulled her hand to the edge of the chair. "Since you're here, sit for a while."

  But Meng Fu Ying's butt hadn't even touched the chair yet.

  From outside came a slightly sharp female voice, obviously excited, "Sister, great joy, great joy."

  Mingfei immediately strode in with a fiery passion.

  "Sister, why are you so happy? What good news do you have at this early hour?" The gentle imperial consort looked towards the bright imperial consort with a still smiling face, without much surprise, and her voice also carried some curiosity.

  Ming Fei, however, first glanced at Meng Fu Ying before pulling over a maid who was standing behind her. The maid was extremely pretty and had a charming appearance with a hint of seductiveness.

  "Sister, this is Ling'er who was sent to the Wangfu yesterday. Last night, His Highness actually favored her." The gentle consort spoke as she glanced at Meng Fuyao again, with a hint of pride and mockery in her eyes.

  Then he took the sheet from the girl's hand and unfolded it. The bright red on the sheet caught everyone's eye.

  That red blood was scattered chaotically on the bed sheet, and it was very different from the fake one Xuan Yuan Ye made that morning.

  Meng Fu Ying's eyes narrowed slightly, what a vicious move, if Xuan Yuan Ye hadn't come to find her last night, how would she have reacted when seeing such evidence?

  What would be the normal reaction of an ordinary person?

  It's just...
