"Don't act recklessly. There are some people you can't afford to offend."
Hearing Ye Yue's warning, Ye Bai glanced at him nonchalantly. "But if we don't get rid of this woman, neither you nor I will have peace."
Hearing Ye Bai's words, Ye Yue thought she was just standing up for him, so he quickly explained, "I just did what I was supposed to. It's just a small matter. There's no need to dwell on it."
But Ye Bai clenched her fists tightly, seemingly oblivious to Ye Yue's words. She was extremely jealous of the newly - arrived Tang Youyou. She had been by Rong Xun's side since childhood. How could she just watch the man she loved being taken away by someone who seemed so ordinary?
This would never be allowed to happen!
"Don't try to persuade me. Sooner or later, something will happen to this woman. And then, I'll see who can still help her."
Hearing the hidden meaning in Ye Bai's words, Ye Yue shook his head and helplessly sat back on the ground.
He was so troubled. His master was really surrounded by too many romantic affairs.
In the Yangxin Hall, Tang Youyou had already eaten her fill and was slumped comfortably in a chair, her eyes squinted in contentment as she enjoyed the moment of tranquility.
This feeling was truly wonderful.
It was just like when she first came to the palace. She was free and care - free. Apart from thinking about how to escape every day, there seemed to be nothing else to worry about.
But now, although she was in the palace, she had enemies everywhere. The people she used to trust had become threats.
Even people she met for the first time would target her for no reason. Such things were countless and impossible to list.
So, she decided not to think too much. Just live her own life and solve the current problems. That would be enough.
Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt a warm current hit her body, making her shiver.
Tang Youyou opened her eyes in a panic and saw Rong Xun in front of her. His face was getting closer and closer.
He was standing behind her chair, bending over to look at her lying in the chair.
"Little You'er, since you've eaten your fill, it's my turn to have a meal, right?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou nodded. She asked in confusion, "If you're hungry, just eat. Why do you need to tell me?"
Hearing this, Rong Xun smiled slightly. His smile made Tang Youyou dazed. "Of course, I need you to start my meal."
Before Tang Youyou could react, she felt herself being picked up by the man in front of her and gently placed on the dragon throne beside.
The dragon throne was big enough for two people to lie on half - reclined. And Rong Xun greedily savored Tang Youyou's fragrance. Ignoring the struggles of the person beneath him, he began to touch every inch of her skin.
Fair, tender, delicious, and soft.
These words were the most appropriate to describe Tang Youyou at this moment.
After a while, the two were naked. Outside the door, Su Ningde only heard a soft moan from the hall. He immediately blushed and turned around to leave in a hurry.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to take the servants at the door away.
The young servant, Xiao Dengzi, wasn't very smart. He stood there stupidly, looking at Su Ningde in confusion. "Master, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red? What happened?"
Hearing this, Su Ningde slapped him on the head.
"His Majesty is busy with state affairs inside. What are you doing here? You're just in the way. If you know you're not needed, just leave quickly. Standing here is just asking for a scolding from His Majesty."
After Su Ningde's scolding, Xiao Dengzi nodded in a daze and then left.
In the Yangxin Hall, the shadows of the two people were reflected on the wall, lingering under the candlelight.
After a night of "entanglement", Tang Youyou was completely limp on the bed, motionless like a dead fish.
Rong Xun, on the other hand, looked extremely satisfied. He got dressed neatly, walked up to Tang Youyou, tucked in the quilt for her, and didn't forget to remind her.
"Little You'er, don't go out today. Your body is not feeling well now. You probably can't even get out of bed. Just wait for me to come back and take care of you."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou, who had been holding back her anger, instantly became furious. "How dare you mention this? If you hadn't forced yourself on me last night, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
Hearing Tang Youyou's angry words, Rong Xun didn't feel angry at all.
He smiled and said, "Since Little You'er misses me so much, how about I come back to dote on you after I finish my court session?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou couldn't help but pick up the pillow beside her and throw it at Rong Xun. But the man remained calm. He gently picked up the pillow on the ground, put it down, and then left.
After the man left, Tang Youyou slowly sat up. She tentatively put her feet on the ground, but just as she was about to stand up, she felt a sudden weakness in her lower body.
For a moment, she lost her balance and slumped to the ground. Fortunately, Rong Xun had dressed her while she was asleep.
Tang Youyou looked towards the door. After a while, a maid came in. It was Yi Ran.
Seeing Yi Ran come at just the right time, Tang Youyou was very relieved. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Yi Ran say anxiously, "Empress, His Majesty said that you're not feeling well and may not be able to get out of bed. So he sent me in to serve you. You probably haven't eaten yet. Let me help you over."
Saying that, Yi Ran carefully helped Tang Youyou to the table.
There were all kinds of delicious food on the table. Tang Youyou's bad mood was instantly forgotten.
She picked up the chopsticks and started to eat heartily.
"It seems that the Empress has really suffered. Even eating is so difficult now."
Hearing Yi Ran's words, Tang Youyou smiled and said, "His Majesty has never been stingy with my food. Don't worry about it. And stop crying. I'm the one who suffered. Can you comfort me?"
Seeing Tang Youyou's joking manner, Yi Ran couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Empress, please don't be so strong. If His Majesty bullies you, I'll avenge you even if I have to lose my life. Last night, I heard many sisters say that you cried and shouted all night, and His Majesty didn't stop hitting you until dawn."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou almost vomited out the food she had just eaten. She forced it down and then blushed as she looked at Yi Ran.
She asked in confusion, "Hit? Cried and shouted all night? Who did you hear this from?"
She really wanted to know which heartless person had told such vulgar words to this innocent little girl.
The little girl was crying loudly...
