expressions.I've never seen him like this, the helplessness and guilt in his eyes are hard to conceal, even the coldest mask can't hide it.In that instant, my reason was overwhelmed by foolish emotio...Light gauze curtains, with mist rising.

There is a thick layer of petals on the water.

No matter how big the bucket is, it's not a bathtub. You can only sit inside, your hair slowly spreading out in the water, gently tangling together.

I couldn't speak, I didn't even have time to see the decorations before he carried me in.

After sitting in meditative stillness, Jiang Qiyun felt much more at ease with this kind of thing. Much more so.

This might be an illusion.

Both scorching heat and freezing cold can make your body tremble.

Little Qiao.

I heard his soft, almost inaudible voice calling.

The clear voice, like drops of spring water seeping into the soil, nourishes the heart drop by drop.

At times like these, he could whisper my name as a love song, and I often found myself unable to resist.

He let out a soft chuckle.

Instead, he only lifted my hair with a towel and wiped it, then scooped me up and carried me out.

I'm a little surprised, eh The approach seems a bit off

What is he going to do

He lay me down at the edge of the bed, smiling serenely at me—

"Occasionally, little empress should take the initiative once, right" He raised an eyebrow at me.

Oh!! This fellow!!

Such a petty person! Even now, you're still clinging to this issue!

"...take the initiative, or else your teeth will knock against each other and you'll be the one crying out in pain!"

Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. He beckoned me closer with a finger, "Come on, let's see who cries first."

I was wrong.

At most twice

Jiang Qiyun nodded slightly, "Okay, as you wish."

The Emperor's word is his bond, of course. What he says, he does.

Once a night, twice a night.

Well, you said so yourself, right

On the first night, it was like this. I felt I needed to distract him with something else.

He caressed my body, as if soothing overexcited nerves, like stroking a cat.

This comfort brought on drowsiness quickly, he squinted at me thoughtfully, making me too uneasy to sleep. I strained to keep my eyes open and look at him.

"What's wrong" I asked.

"...it's nothing, just wanted to see you."

The cold fragrance on his body lingered at the tip of my nose, making me drowsy.

What's good looking…

"It doesn't look good, and after a while, I'll have to carry around another ball..." I said, closing my eyes.

"Humph... Why do you say that I'm not good-looking" He pressed a point on the back of my waist, and a numbness spread through me. The sudden jolt woke me up half way.

He murmured softly, “ …Youthful fruits are alluring, yet I prefer to see you blossom, like a spring water… flowering and bearing fruit, becoming even sweeter…”

I put my hands on his neck, pressing him down.

"Ready to light the fuse" he chuckled, pinching my waist.

"...conditionally!"

"Anything goes when it comes from your loved one."

"Hmm... What day is it today..."

"What's the matter Time is lost in the mountains; who cares about the date..."

"Hmm... ah... wait a moment..."

“

…This is what you started.

"

"I think—"

"Mu Xia Qiao, you can say anything in my ear, right"

“Okay, okay, you win. You said so, anyway I'll just consider it a yes!”

》》》

As the old saying goes, "One burst of energy, then another diminishing one, and finally exhaustion."

The Heavenly Emperor is definitely inexhaustible, he doesn't even weaken when weakened, but I feel like I'm nearing my limit.

Anyway, I slept until the sun was three poles high before I recovered. The first thing I did was to find some tea to drink.

As soon as I lifted the bed curtain, I saw Jiang Qiyun standing by the window, gazing down at the scene below.

Two maidservants just happened to be carrying in a small stove and tea set. As soon as they saw me, they asked, “Does the young mistress want to take a bath”

I want it, but please give me a cup of tea first. I've been humming and hawing all night, my throat is about to smoke.

Jiang Qiyun laughed and turned back to look at me: “Would you like some snacks Although you might not feel hungry right now, nurturing a fetus requires maintaining your energy and nutrition.”

“……”

Were you doing that on purpose Did those two maids giggle and hide it from you

"Why don't you go to the Imperial Palace" I steered the conversation back on track.

"Don't worry about it for now, who asked you to get up anyway."

It's my fault!

"What day is it" My head was still fuzzy from the lack of oxygen.

"Reporting to Lady Xiao, it is the 13th of the first lunar month." A maidservant replied.

"What's the matter" Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow.

"Qiyun, I promise to be your little shadow these days, but can you please accompany me to do one thing first It's very important!"

"Just say it. Enough with the chatter."

"My brother is meeting his prospective father-in-law on the 14th of the first lunar month, and I have to—"his petite girl with bright eyes and a gentle smile the mistressAnd at this moment, her expression seemed like she had eaten honey cotton candy, looking so blissfully happy that it was practically bub...
