Reborn into the palace, she seduces the emperor's heart, driving the chief minister to madness!

Chapter 108 Plastic Mother-Child Relationship

Chu Qingyin had slept for a long time, and her face was rosy with slightly pouting red lips, making her look like a delicate flower, inviting one to pick it.

Pei Yuanling's throat tightened, and he leaned down to kiss her lips.

A fragrant and sweet aroma instantly filled my mouth...

Chu Qingyin was dazed by his kiss, and her hands climbed onto his shoulders, passively enduring the sudden kiss.

After an unknown amount of time, her thin clothes became disheveled, revealing her fair and smooth shoulders, which were extremely beautiful.

Seeing the man's large hand reach towards her waist, about to completely undo her belt—

"His Majesty!"

Chu Qingyin immediately snapped out of her daze and grabbed his hand that was about to cause trouble.

After being tormented all night yesterday, her body was already at its limit. If she were to let the man continue to torment her, she might become the first concubine in history to die in bed!

She didn't want to become a laughing stock.

"Your Majesty, I am hungry..."

As Chu Qingyin spoke, she looked up at the red date and lotus seed soup placed beside her and said in a flattering tone.

Pei Yuanling's disappointed look vanished instantly. He affectionately pinched her nose and tucked her half-undone clothes back into place: "I will personally feed you."

Chu Qingyin blushed and said shyly, "Your Majesty, this is against etiquette."

"There is no one else here; my words are the highest form of courtesy."

The man didn't move any closer, but tilted his head and leaned close to her ear. As his warm breath escaped her lips, his deep, husky voice rang out: "Only after I've satisfied you can I feel at ease."

Chu Qingyin paused for a moment, then said reproachfully, "Your Majesty, you're teasing me again."

Pei Yuanling was amused by her words, raised an eyebrow and smiled, then looked her up and down. "You didn't say that yesterday when you were holding me and asking for me."

Chu Qingyin immediately buried her head in Pei Yuanling's arms, feeling shy. Recalling the scene of letting him do whatever he wanted yesterday, she was truly ashamed to face anyone.

After the meal, Pei Yuanling, feeling sorry for her exhaustion, personally helped her take a bath.

Chu Qingyin blushed deeply, wanting to refuse. But the man's attitude was firm, and she had no choice but to comply.

She let him carry her to the bathtub behind the screen.

The maids had already left, leaving only the two of them sitting on the tatami chairs beside the bathtub.

As if unwrapping a beloved gift, Pei Yuanling slowly removed her outer robe...

They had been married for several years and were exceptionally loving; Chu Qingyin should have long since gotten used to this intimacy.

But when the man undressed her himself, she couldn't help but feel her heart race.

In a daze, she recalled the loving time they spent together when they were newly married.

He undressed her, drew her eyebrows, and did her hair, almost raising her like a porcelain doll that didn't need him to lift a finger.

At that time, she thought she was the happiest person in the world.

If only none of what happened later had occurred...

Suddenly, she felt a chill in front of her.

Looking down, she saw that her thin undergarment had been undone.

The man's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at her intently, as if admiring a precious artifact.

Chu Qingyin subconsciously raised her hand to cover her chest, looking shy and timid: "Your Majesty, please don't look."

Pei Yuanling pulled her hand away, his voice low and husky: "Such a beautiful view, why not look at it?"

Most men are scoundrels in bed, and Chu Qingyin was so ashamed that she didn't know what to say.

Seeing that she remained silent, Pei Yuanling kissed her.

Chu Qingyin felt a tingling sensation on her cheek, let out a soft cry, and instinctively hugged the man, "Your Majesty..."

With a sweet, coquettish voice, Pei Yuanling could no longer resist and pulled her into his arms.

"Now that Yinyin has been fed, it's time for Yinyin to feed me."

Tonight is destined to be another sleepless night.

***

For three consecutive days, the emperor indulged in the pleasures of the harem, returning to his bedchamber with great pleasure, and neglected state affairs for three days.

Empress Wang's originally dignified face was completely obscured by anger, and the nail guards in her hands dug deeply into her palms: "Consort Qiao is really too ignorant of manners, daring to pester His Majesty and neglect state affairs, it's simply absurd."

The chief eunuch Lin Qing immediately stepped forward and comforted her, saying, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Consort Qiao's arrogance has offended all the concubines in the harem. Once she falls out of favor in the future, she will naturally suffer the consequences. You don't need to bother with her."

"I will not bother with her, but..."

Empress Wang paused, looked up at Lin Qing, and a hint of sorrow appeared in her eyes: "Apart from Consort Chu, I have never seen him treat any other concubine like this."

Does he really love Chu Qingyin that much?

Even a stand-in can receive such favor from him.

"If Your Majesty truly minds, this servant will go and do it for you immediately—"

Before Lin Qing could finish speaking, the Empress interrupted him sharply: "How dare you, a mere servant, utter such words?"

"This servant misspoke, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Empress Wang glanced at him, then composed herself and resumed her dignified demeanor: "She is so flamboyant that I cannot touch her, nor can I advise His Majesty, but there are others who can."

"You mean the Empress Dowager?"

Empress Wang did not answer, but her gradually darkening eyes and the smile that curled at the corners of her mouth revealed the answer.

-

Empress Dowager Wang's headaches flared up again, causing her to be unable to sleep at night and unable to eat or sleep properly.

Pei Yuanling raised his eyes, looked at Chen Zhongliang standing below him, and asked, "Has Physician Chen gone to see him?"

"Imperial Physician Chen said, 'This is an old ailment of the Empress Dowager that has never improved. We can only take good care of her and alleviate the symptoms.'"

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuanling smirked and said, "What old problem? It's just another excuse to deceive me about the past."

His relationship with the Empress Dowager was always lukewarm. Her support for his ascension to the throne and his granting her the honors of an empress dowager were nothing more than an exchange of interests.

As long as she behaves herself and doesn't overstep her bounds, he can turn a blind eye, and everyone can live in peace.

If she is greedy and insatiable, and insists on interfering in his affairs, then don't blame him for being "unfilial".

"Does Your Majesty wish to go and visit him?" Chen Zhongliang asked from below.

The young emperor put down the memorial in his hand and sneered, "The stage is all set up. If I don't go, wouldn't I be letting down the Empress Dowager's good intentions?"
