Du Gu Luanyue's heart was pounding. What on earth should she do? Why did Mu Rong Min suddenly come here?
She swallowed hard, trying to moisten her dry throat, and then walked over slowly. "Your Majesty, please allow your servant to take a bath first and then serve Your Majesty."
As she got closer, she noticed a faint smell of alcohol on Mu Rong Min. No wonder his eyes looked a bit hazy and dissolute.
Mu Rong Min grabbed her slender waist with one big hand and threw her onto the bed without any tenderness. "You can go after it's done."
Du Gu Luanyue had planned to take advantage of the time when she went out to take a bath to switch places with Yu Zan. She would then tell Yu Zan to stay silent in bed so as not to let Huo Wei notice anything strange.
But with Huo Wei hiding under the bed and hearing all this, he might misunderstand her. She would be too ashamed to look into his deep eyes when they met in a few days.
However, Mu Rong Min didn't give her any chance today. She was already pressed onto the bed. This had happened several times, and she had almost failed to avoid Mu Rong Min's advances.
Obviously, Mu Rong Min was not an emperor who followed the plan.
She was indeed the queen, with a formal marital status with Mu Rong Min. She didn't know how long she could keep the secret of letting Yu Zan replace her to serve the emperor in bed.
The emperor's intermittent kisses fell on Du Gu Luanyue. She bit her lips and turned her face away.
The emperor's increasingly hot breath sprayed on her ear, and he said in a muffled voice, "Why isn't the queen taking the initiative to kiss me today? Usually, you're quite wild."
Huo Wei heard everything clearly under the bed.
His eyes, hidden in the darkness, were now covered with anger and annoyance. He stared up at the top of the imperial bed, and his well - defined jawline became sharp.
Du Gu Luanyue said softly, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, your servant is really not feeling well. Could you..."
But Mu Rong Min became a bit domineering. He disliked it the most when his mood was spoiled. "If the queen keeps this up, she's spoiling my mood."
Du Gu Luanyue's long, pointed fingertips tightly grasped the brocade quilt. Mu Rong Min untied her regular dress, and it fell to the ground. She didn't dare to resist forcefully.
An amorous atmosphere filled the space between the curtains of the imperial bed.
She didn't like Mu Rong Min at all. Du Gu Luanyue inadvertently wiped off the saliva left after the kiss with her sleeve.
She could tolerate Huo Wei to some extent, but she resisted Mu Rong Min from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't even act like she liked it.
Gradually, she struggled. "Your Majesty, your servant has a bit of a pain in the lower abdomen. It's really painful."
Mu Rong Min said coldly, "You keep the lights on all night in your palace. I don't know what you've been busy with.
Queen, if you don't want to serve me in bed, you can just tell me straight."
Someone had told him that the queen had been staying up all night for several days, and usually, when there was a chance, she would push Su Rou and the others to serve him.
He was angry that the queen had lied and didn't want to serve him in bed, so he rushed over to find out the truth.
But Du Gu Luanyue had been very careful to cover it up. There were no bright lights in the bedroom of the Fengluan Palace. Only a small candle was lit. She wasn't stupid.
Du Gu Luanyue's face turned pale. She pushed Mu Rong Min's chest.
"Your servant can ask Su Rou to come in and serve Your Majesty. Your servant is really not feeling well today."
She suddenly felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen, which was a bit like the sign of her menstrual period. But it wasn't the time for her period these days. However, she could only use this reason to resist for the time being.
Mu Rong Min tore open her inner shirt, knelt on her waist with his legs, his upper body bare, and said with a bit of a red - eyed look, "I just want you tonight."
Huo Wei gritted his teeth tightly under the bed. "Old bastard, what nonsense! It's disgusting."
At this moment, he even had the urge to rush out and stop all this, but he just couldn't.
His chest heaved violently due to his rapid breathing, and his dark eyes became more and more gloomy.
Du Gu Luanyue wondered if she would ultimately not be able to escape this disaster.
Her eyes turned red. She reluctantly catered to Mu Rong Min. Gradually, she closed her eyes.
But according to the plan, after she finished all her tasks in the Northern Yan, she would fake her death and go back, marry the person she loved, inherit the throne, and return to her original path.
If it happened tonight, how could she go back and face Yun Qi in the future?
Suddenly, she opened her eyes. Huo Wei was still under the bed!
She suddenly became nervous. Mu Rong Min's adopted son was under the bed watching his father and mother... How could she face him in the future? She would be so embarrassed.
But Mu Rong Min showed no sign of stopping. He kept saying vulgar words, which was far from his usual dignified imperial appearance.
Yu Zan had already dressed up as Du Gu Luanyue and had been waiting outside the palace. But the emperor had been inside for a long time, and the queen hadn't come out to switch with her. What on earth was going on?
That day, Du Gu Luanyue had asked her to tell the person in charge of the sleeping arrangements that the queen's menstrual period had come early and she couldn't serve the emperor in bed. But she deliberately didn't say it.
She also bribed a little eunuch in the Zichen Hall and deliberately spread the news to attract the emperor here, just so that she could serve the emperor in bed.
"Granny Mei Jiang, why hasn't the queen called me out yet?" Yu Zan asked tentatively.
Granny Mei Jiang's face didn't look good at the moment. "Maybe she doesn't need you tonight. Go back."
Her heart tightened. Only those who accompanied the queen every day knew that Mu Rong Min, as an emperor, wasn't very kind to women. It all depended on his mood.
Yu Zan often came back from serving the emperor with injuries on her body.
Yu Zan said that the emperor liked to pinch people and sometimes even beat them. But if she said it out, most people wouldn't believe it, and no one would ever blame the emperor.
Thinking of this, Granny Mei Jiang felt a bit sorry for Yu Zan.
Inside the palace, in the curtain of the imperial bed, Du Gu Luanyue still pushed Mu Rong Min away forcefully and covered her lower abdomen.
"Your Majesty, your servant's menstrual period has come. Your servant really can't serve you in bed!"
She felt it. Her menstrual period had come early, and the wet feeling between her legs was very obvious.
There was a hint of sharpness in Mu Rong Min's eyes. "It seems that you really want to spoil my mood."
He grabbed Du Gu Luanyue's calf and dragged her over forcefully. Only then did he notice that there were indeed bloodstains on her white skirt.
Mu Rong Min frowned and then let go of Du Gu Luanyue's calf.
She wasn't paying attention, and her calf hit the corner of the bed. She let out a soft cry of pain, and her eyes suddenly became sour.
Huo Wei frowned tightly under the bed. After hearing this soft cry, his disgust for Mu Rong Min deepened a lot.
He clenched his fists tightly, almost ready to punch!
Mu Rong Min said coldly, "It's really a spoilsport. Forget it. I'll go to Concubine Zhao's place."
Du Gu Luanyue's lower abdomen was throbbing with pain. Her face was a bit pale, but she still had to say obediently in a delicate voice,
"Please forgive your servant, Your Majesty. Allow your servant to make amends another day."
Mu Rong Min looked back at her and then left. For some reason, the queen always gave him a sense of mystery. He always felt that something was not quite right.
During the day, she tried every means to escape, but at night, she seemed like a different person.
Huo Wei heard that the palace had completely quieted down. He gently knocked on the bed board under the bed.
