Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Liangwei’s eyes widened as she stared blankly at the gorgeous face before her eyes.
The Emperor was actually feeding her water with his mouth?!
“Does it taste good?” The man’s deep voice came from above her head, gentle and mellow.
In a daze, Lu Liangwei sensed that he was about to advance on her again and hurriedly covered her mouth, mumbling, “Please stop it, Your Majesty. It’s getting late, can we go to bed?”
Long Yang planted a hand beside her head, his other hand holding the cup of water, and said suggestively, “But just now, you…”
Before he could finish, the girl clapped her soft hand over his mouth. He cocked an eyebrow.
Blushing, Lu Liangwei said in exasperation, “If you keep messing around, I’m not going to talk to you anymore.”
Long Yang pulled her hand away in resignation and flicked her on the forehead with a finger. “Why are you so nervous? I’m adding some spice to our marriage, you know?”
Lu Liangwei stared at him speechlessly.
The Emperor seemed to be a little too old for any kind of spice. She was really no match for him.
She nodded glumly.
Long Yang brought the cup to her mouth. “Well?”
Lu Liangwei could only sit up, take the cup from him, and drink the water in small sips. Long Yang stroked her hair, and when she had finished drinking, he took the cup away.
After blowing the candle out, Long Yang walked over and lay down beside her. He wrapped his arms around her curled-up body, his chin gently grazing the top of her head. “You don’t like me doing that to you?” Lu Liangwei was about to drift off, but hearing him suddenly bring up the subject, she instantly felt a little uncomfortable. “Does it matter?” After a long moment, she finally asked wearily.
“Of course. If you don’t like it, I won’t do it to you anymore.” Long Yang, on the other hand, was as calm as ever.
Lu Liangwei pursed her lips and thought to herself, ‘You’re so quick to promise me now, but you’re sure to get your own way again next time!’
“I already said no just now, but you still…” Lu Liangwei could not help complaining.
Long Yang caressed her smooth shoulders for a while, and recalling the experience just now, he said pleasantly, “Very well then. Next time, you can have your turn.”
Lu Liangwei, “…”
With a pout, she turned away crossly. “I’m not going to talk to you anymore.” The Emperor was nothing but an old perv!
His teasing was getting more and more out of hand, and even a modern-world person like her could not stand it.
She was terribly embarrassed by all his peculiar tricks.
Seeing that she was annoyed, Long Yang stopped teasing her. Chuckling, he sniffed her neck lightly and patted her back. “Weren’t you whining about wanting to sleep just now? Go ahead.”
Although Lu Liangwei was a little irritated by his teasing, she was indeed exhausted, so she settled into a comfortable position in his arms and closed her eyes.
Not long after came the sound of her soft breathing.
Long Yang gazed at the girl curled up like a cat in his embrace, an affectionate smile in his eyes, his heart full of joy.
Soon, he would become a father. Although the first three months would be a bit tormenting, the thought of Weiwei bearing his child made everything worthwhile.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead before drifting off
contentedly with her in his arms.
The next day, the news of Lu Liangwei’s pregnancy spread throughout the imperial capital.
When another insensible official brought up the idea of a palace draft once again in court, the Emperor’s countenance remained benign, much to everyone’s surprise. However, his following words sent a hush falling over the crowd, stifling all further mentions of concubine selection.
“You’re already quite advanced in years, Minister Chen. In that case, I shall grant you the honor of resigning from your position and returning to your hometown.”
Minister Chen, “…”
All the court officials, “….”
