Wearing a book, hooking him up

Su Jingyao lay lazily on the beauty couch, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes lightly closed, and she began to think carefully about today's talent show.

She still clearly remembered the plot of the novel. When Jun Zechen was still the crown prince, the Eastern Palace did not accept any women except the original owner.

When Emperor Jingsheng was critically ill, he called Jun Zechen for a secret talk. Although she did not know the specific content of the secret talk, Jun Zechen's personality changed drastically because of this conversation.

Wearing the dragon robe, he looked cold and majestic, unfathomable, and no one could read his emotions.

The emperor's majesty and indifference permeated almost his entire life, and his tenderness for Ling Yue was completely worn away in the more than ten years after he ascended the throne.

After he ascended the throne, he started the beauty contest at the suggestion of his court officials, and then he favored the concubines indiscriminately.

Almost all the concubines in the palace who pleased him would receive his favor.

Among the five beauties selected by the Queen for Jun Zechen yesterday, An Jinyan was the one that impressed her the most, because she was the first woman that Jun Zechen favored after he ascended the throne, and later became the most favored concubine in the harem who competed with Queen Ling Yue.

Ling Yue's halo as the heroine is probably that she had Jun Zechen's sincere love in the early stage, and Jun Zechen's support and trust in the harem struggle in the middle stage. Otherwise, she would not have been alive under the suppression and scheming of one favorite concubine after another.

Later on, Jun Zechen's love for Ling Yue faded because of her changes. In the end, the two became husband and wife for life.

But after Jun Zechen became emperor, women never stopped coming to him. When he stopped loving Ling Yue, it also meant that he no longer loved anyone. He no longer had the ability to love, and he didn't understand love.

Ling Yue lost her love in the harem struggle, but she secured the position of queen. Every time she saw the cold Jun Zechen, she would miss the young man they used to be.

Every time Su Jingyao thought about the plot of the novel, she regretted reading it.

It is a sweet romance novel but it turns out to be a sad novel. However, this novel does speak volumes about human nature.

Now, probably because of her butterfly effect, the Queen not only sent five women into the Eastern Palace, but also sent the future favorite concubine An Jinyan to Jun Zechen in advance.

A smile slowly formed at the corner of Su Jingyao's mouth. Is she going to start the palace fighting mode early?

Jun Zechen will ascend the throne next year. Originally, the Crown Princess would not get pregnant, and there were only two of them in the Eastern Palace. She was not in a hurry to get pregnant, but now five women suddenly came, and it seems that Jun Zechen will definitely favor them.

Thinking of this, Su Jingyao frowned slightly. This butterfly effect completely disrupted her plan. She had originally planned to wait until Jun Zechen ascended the throne before getting pregnant.

Tsk.

It seems that I can't continue to use contraception now.

After all, she was going to give birth to Jun Zechen's eldest son.

When Jun Zechen stepped into Xiyan Palace, the little woman was lying quietly on the beauty couch with a dull look in her eyes, and there was no palace maid serving her.

After returning to the East Palace from the Imperial Study, Jun Zechen's mind was filled with thoughts.

What the emperor said does make sense. He really shouldn't invest too much emotion in a woman.

Originally, he planned to comfort Ling Yue, because Anshun reported that Ling Yue had been depressed since returning from the tea-tasting banquet, and even kept sending people to inquire when he would return.

Jun Zechen felt annoyed when he heard Anshun's report. He didn't want to continue discussing women's matters with Ling Yue, and he couldn't make any promises to Ling Yue.

These women were just tools for him to have children, so what's wrong with favoring them? Why did she always look so heartbroken? He didn't know how to comfort Ling Yue, nor how to get along with her.

So, Jun Zechen turned around and came to Xiyan Palace.

Jun Zechen slowly approached the woman. He stood tall and straight, and every step he took was accompanied by a steady strength, as if the whole world was at his feet.

The woman's smooth hair fell on her chest like a waterfall, her hair smooth as silk, as if it was woven from the finest silk thread.

The silk dress fluttered down to the ground like flowing clouds, so dreamy and illusory. Her face was so beautiful that it made people intoxicated and almost unable to take their eyes off it.

Jun Zechen gently picked up the dazed woman, put her on his lap, and then hugged her tightly.

He buried his head deep in the woman's soft neck, looking a little lonely.

Su Jingyao was startled by his sudden action and only came to her senses when she was picked up.

She turned her head slightly and looked at Jun Zechen who had his eyes closed, feeling a little confused.

Why does Jun Zechen look so wrong today?

He seemed to be a little hurt.

Su Jingyao frowned slightly. What happened?

Although she didn't understand what happened, Su Jingyao still reacted quickly, gently hugged Jun Zechen back, and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Your Highness?"

Her voice is so soft and tender that it makes people relax when they hear it.

"Yaoyao, do you know what love is?"

Jun Zechen's voice was indifferent, without much emotion in it.

Su Jingyao smiled like a flower, held Jun Zechen's handsome face in her hands, gazed at him with her gentle eyes, and said softly: "I think about Your Highness every day, does this count as love?"

Jun Zechen looked at her with his dark eyes, he didn't know the answer.

Because it was he who asked Su Jingyao to change, and it was he who asked her to focus all her attention on him, but he didn't know whether she really liked him in her heart.

But now he felt that the answer didn't seem to matter, because he couldn't respond to anyone's likes.

"But love can change, so what can I do? Yaoyao is thinking about me today, who will she be thinking about tomorrow?"

Jun Zechen frowned slightly, and his words were full of thorns.

"Time passes, political regimes change, and the customs of the world change frequently. Your Highness, why should you pursue eternity?"

Su Jingyao looked calm, and then she continued, "It's just a scene, a passer-by, and an experience. When we part, no one needs to explain to anyone else."

She looked at Jun Zechen intently, her eyes full of sincerity.

Her words were actually alluding to Jun Zechen and Ling Yue. She wanted Jun Zechen to let go of the guilt in his heart.

Jun Zechen obviously understood.

Then Su Jingyao gently put her red lips close to Jun Zechen's ear. Her voice was charming, as if to pull Jun Zechen into the abyss.

"Your Highness, just follow your heart. I will always be yours."

Jun Zechen hugged Su Jingyao's waist tightly. Her words made him feel surprised, but also relieved.

He reached out and pinched Su Jingyao's chin, staring at her with his deep eyes.

"Even if I don't like you anymore, you don't care?"

Su Jingyao's eyes instantly brightened up, sparkling, "Your Highness, do you mean that you like me now?"

"I am so happy."

A bright smile spread across her face, as beautiful as a blooming spring flower.

Jun Zechen was stunned. He didn't expect Su Jingyao's focus would be like this.

"I like you, are you happy?" Jun Zechen's tone was a little surprised.

Su Jingyao nodded, "Before I married Your Highness, Your Highness already had a wife, and his wife was his sweetheart, and he may even have many women in the future, but I only have Your Highness. If Your Highness doesn't like me, I can accept it, but if Your Highness likes me, I will be very happy."

"I don't like you anymore, won't you be very sad?"

The reason why Jun Zechen asked this was because Ling Yue was like this now. Ling Yue was afraid that he would fall in love with Su Jingyao, so she had been monopolizing him for the past few days, and he saw it all.

but.

Ling Yue's possessiveness towards him made him feel a little annoyed.

"Then I have something to say to Your Highness." Su Jingyao raised her head slightly, with determination and persistence in her eyes.

Su Jingyao got off Jun Zechen lightly, with a graceful figure, like a lively fairy.

She walked lightly to the couch beside her and sat down.

On the low table above the couch were placed the pens and inks she used for practicing calligraphy, which exuded a faint scent of ink.

Su Jingyao picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, turned her wrist slightly, and wrote smoothly on the paper.

She looked focused and serious, and every stroke of her pen contained her emotions. After a short while, a beautiful piece of text appeared on the paper, with a graceful handwriting, as moving as flowing water.

After writing, Su Jingyao raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a naughty and cute smile.

She stood up, holding the paper in her hand, and walked towards Jun Zechen.

"Your Highness, please take a look." Her voice was clear and pleasant, as sweet as a silver bell.

Jun Zechen slowly opened the paper in front of him, and the few sentences that came into his eyes shocked him.

I and Chunfeng are both passing guests, and you take the autumn water to the galaxy.

I am lucky to meet you, even though it is sad, it is still love.

"Your Highness, I accept all the endings of my life. I am not afraid and I will never regret it."

Su Jingyao looked at Jun Zechen firmly, with sincere emotions flashing in her eyes.

Jun Zechen looked at her steadily, his heart surging like a raging sea and unable to calm down.

He could feel his heart pounding, an overwhelming surge of emotion.

he knows.

At this moment, Jun Zechen likes Su Jingyao very much.

He sat on the beauty couch, looked up at the little woman who was standing in front of him with her back bent, talking and laughing. His big hands couldn't help but tightly embrace her waist and bring her into his arms.

He could no longer suppress his inner excitement and lowered his head to kiss Su Jingyao's delicate lips.

His kiss was passionate and deep, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.

Su Jingyao ran her hands through the man's black hair. She closed her eyes and felt the man's surging love at the moment with her heart.

Look, this is what a man is.

What they enjoy and are touched by is the love without any burden or responsibility. There is no pressure and no need to give, just accept it.

Even if you don't like it anymore, don't use it to blackmail me morally.

Su Jingyao can be whatever Jun Zechen likes.

Because she wouldn't fall in love with him.

She was a little overwhelmed by the man's kiss.

She gently pushed Jun Zechen away, and Jun Zechen slowly let her go.

Su Jingyao said coquettishly: "But Your Highness is not allowed to deliberately make me sad. If you are too sad, I will flood Your Highness's East Palace with my tears, hum."

There was a hint of coquettishness in her voice, which made people's hearts melt.

Jun Zechen looked at her with burning eyes, and her words made Jun Zechen feel both pity and heartbeat.

Why does her every move affect his heart so much?

This feeling was completely different from the feeling Ling Yue gave him, and he couldn't describe it in words.

I just felt my heart beating wildly, and I wanted to suppress it but couldn't.

Jun Zechen could no longer control his emotions and kissed her delicate lips again.

The two of them were whispering in each other's ears, inseparable, as if they had melted into each other's tenderness and affection.

Qiluan Palace.

After returning from the tea-tasting party, Ling Yue seemed to have lost his soul. He sat blankly on the couch with empty eyes. It was as if all the life had been sucked out of him. He just sat there quietly without saying a word.

Meixiang stood aside, looking at her master with a worried look on her face, and sighed softly, her sigh filled with helplessness and heartache.

"Master, your Highness will have more and more women in the future, not less. You must firmly grasp your Highness's heart, sit firmly on the position of Crown Princess, and become the Queen who rules the country in the future. This is the most important thing." Meixiang said earnestly.

"Meixiang, you have seen the five women today. They are all beautiful and graceful. Your Highness has always been prejudiced against women in the capital, so he has always been defensive against them."

Ling Yue spoke slowly, with a hint of bitterness in her voice.

"But now that Su Jingyao has broken that line of defense, the women behind her will surely find it easier to break it, and your Highness's heart will be shared with more and more people. I know that as the Crown Princess, I cannot be jealous, but I can't help it."

Ling Yue lowered her head slightly, clenched her hands tightly together, and her knuckles turned white from the force.

"Last night, I invited His Highness to come to Qiluan Palace, but His Highness declined on the grounds that he was busy with government affairs. Instead, he went to Xiyan Palace without giving me any explanation. In the past, His Highness would send someone to explain everything to me in order not to make me sad."

Ling Yue raised her head, a trace of pain flashing in her eyes.

"But what about now?" Her voice trembled slightly.

"Su Jingyao alone has already taken away most of His Highness's affection, and now there are five more."

Ling Yue's voice was full of resentment and unwillingness.

"Master, you must not continue to indulge in the love affair with His Highness. His Highness needs to give birth to an heir. In a few days, the Queen's newly selected beauties will enter the East Palace, and Your Highness will definitely favor them." Meixiang said anxiously.

"You must not show any dissatisfaction, and don't make things difficult for them. The Queen doesn't like you to begin with, and you must not let the Queen find any problems with you before you become the next Queen." Meixiang's eyes were full of worry.

"Besides, how can the newly-arrived concubines have any influence on you, the master? You might as well sit back and watch the tigers fight and let them compete for favor. Competing for favor is naturally the business of the concubines. You are the master of the East Palace, so you don't need to worry too much."

Mei Xiang's words were like enlightenment to Ling Yue, causing him to fall into deep thought.

As Ling Yue listened to Mei Xiang's words, a glimmer of light gradually appeared in her eyes. She nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

Meixiang was right. His Highness always needed an heir. Since it was not her, then any other woman didn't matter. She would just let them fight.

Isn't Su Jingyao kind and innocent, and doesn't she live in peace with the world? If more women come to the East Palace to compete with her for the prince, can Su Jingyao still remain as innocent and harmless as always?

Ling Yue couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
