You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

After Xiao Yun helped Liu Bojian up, he walked to the desk by the window and sat down.

"Lord Liu, come and sit down."

Liu Bojian looked at him. Although Xiao Yun was gentle to him, he did not dare to let his guard down and his heart was still tense.

He walked over and sat down in front of Xiao Yan.

There was a cup of steaming tea in front of the two of them. Xiao Yan said:

"This tea is the red robe that the vassal state has just paid tribute to this year. It's not bad. Lord Liu, please try it."

Xiao Yan said this and started drinking the cup of tea in front of him.

Liu Bojian picked up the tea and drank it with an expressionless look, but he was wondering in his heart why Xiao Yun called him over at this time.

He finished the cup of tea, looked at Xiao Yan and said:

"Your Majesty asked me to come here, but is there anything you want me to do?"

Xiao Yun glanced at the empty cup of tea Liu Bojian had drunk and said:

"Lord Liu, the Spring Examination is approaching. In previous years, the Spring Examination was organized by the Ministry of Rites, but favoritism and corruption occurred from time to time. An Guo had just defeated the Northern Jue. Although most of the cities have been repaired after the war, various construction projects still need to be expanded and implemented, and a large number of talented people are urgently needed.

Acts of favoritism and fraud are unfair to many poor students and also bury many talented people.

Therefore, for the next spring examination, I want to make a change and find someone trustworthy outside the Ministry of Rites to serve as the chief examiner to supervise.

Mr. Liu is Yiyi's elder brother, and we are all family. I trust Mr. Liu quite a bit, and would like to entrust him with this matter. What do you think, Mr. Liu?"

After hearing what Xiao Yun said, Liu Bojian was stunned.

He thought of all the possibilities, but he never imagined that Xiao Yan would want him to be the chief examiner.

If he did a good job in the Spring Examination, he would not only receive rewards but also have a chance of promotion.

This... is simply pie in the sky.

It seems that he is really fascinated by Liu Yiyi.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiao Yan said:

"If you, Lord Liu, have any concerns, then..."

Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, Liu Bojian immediately knelt down, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and vowed:

"I will do my best to live up to your majesty's trust in the Spring Examination."

Xiao Yan helped him up and said softly:

"Then I'll leave this matter to Lord Liu."

Xiao Yan paused and said:

"Yiyi has not seen her brother for a long time, she must miss him very much. She is pregnant now, so it is not convenient for her to leave the palace. Lord Liu should visit her more often."

Liu Bojian heard the implication from Xiao Yun's words, which was that they were somewhat ignoring Liu Yiyi, and immediately said:

"I will go to see Yiyi now. It is because my father and I have been so busy with work that we have neglected Yiyi."

Xiao Yan nodded and said:

"Well, Lord Liu, go ahead! I've been a bit absurd these past few days and have fallen behind on a lot of official duties. I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany Yiyi today. Lord Liu, please stay with her more."

"Yes, I will definitely accompany my sister well."

It just so happened that he was also going to look for Liu Yiyi, but Xiao Yan had been by her side for the past few days.

After Liu Bojian left, Xiao Yan did not handle any official business, but said to Eunuch Fu:

"Go and ask the kitchen to prepare a bowl of red dates and bird's nest."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Eunuch Fu left, Feng Xin appeared from nowhere and said:

"Master, everything is ready."

Xiao Wei nodded and waved his hand to let him go.

Lin Zhaoyue was confused. What was ready?

She knew that Xiao Yan had put something in the tea that Liu Bojian had just drunk.

And she had clearly been following him the whole time, except for a nap on the road, but it seemed like she had missed a lot of things.

Xiao Yun took the hourglass and played with it in his hand, as if he was calculating the time.

Here, the air is filled with aroma.

Liu Yiyi was probably not satisfied this morning, and her body was feeling very hot at the moment.

She lay naked in bed, missing Xiao Yan very, very much.

"Brother Ying..."

Just now when she heard Xiao Yan tell her to wait for him, she stayed in bed. The scent of Xiao Yan all over her body made her particularly excited.

When Liu Bojian just arrived at the gate of Fengkun Palace, he saw that the door was open and Jinzhu was sweeping the floor outside.

Seeing Liu Bojian, Jin Zhu's expression changed slightly. He looked around carefully and after confirming that it was safe, he said:

"Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

"Why? What do I need to report to you?"

Jinzhu knew that her tone was inappropriate, so she quickly said:

"I dare not. I will go and inform Her Majesty the Queen."

After hearing Jinzhu's words, Liu Yiyi, who was drowsy at the moment, only heard someone coming over. She subconsciously thought it was Xiao Yan coming over, and immediately said:

"Quick, let him in, quick..."

After Jinzhu conveyed Liu Yiyi's words, Liu Bojian looked at her and said:

"I have something to discuss with your princess. Please stay away. If I know you are eavesdropping, watch out for your head."

Jinzhu was given to Liu Yiyi by Lin Yanzhi. She serves as both a helper and a supervisor.

If everything was planned by Liu Yiyi, Jin Zhu would definitely not know about it. If she knew their plan and Lin Yanzhi was still alive, he would definitely find ways to get rid of them.

Jinzhu frowned. Just now, when the princess heard that Young Master Liu was about to come in, her voice was obviously anxious. Could it be that they had some secret?

After Liu Bojian went in, he closed the door.

Jinzhu had just put her ear to the door when the next moment the door, which had been closed, was immediately opened.

Liu Bojian looked at her with a gloomy face. Just as Jin Zhu was about to explain something, Liu Bojian reached out and knocked her unconscious.

"Eat everything inside and out."

Liu Bojian dragged her in and closed the door again.

The strong scent of magnolia penetrated his nostrils, and Liu Bojian immediately felt that the room was extremely hot. He was so overwhelmed by the task that Xiao Yan had just given him that he did not notice anything wrong.

He looked around and didn't see Liu Yiyi, so he shouted:

"Liu Yiyi."

"Um……"

Liu Yiyi's voice came from the inner room. Liu Bojian frowned slightly. Her voice sounded particularly beautiful to him at this moment.

He waited for a while, but Liu Yiyi didn't come out.

Could it be possible that he should be allowed in?

Just as he was thinking this, Liu Yiyi's voice came over:

"Come here quickly."

He felt that Liu Yiyi's voice was a little strange, as if she was suppressing something.

However, he paused for a moment, as if bewitched by something, and walked over.

When he arrived at the bedroom, he still didn't see Liu Yiyi. He fixed his eyes on the phoenix bed. Through the translucent gauze, he could vaguely see her graceful figure.

His instinct told him that he should hurry up, but he had already reached the bed without knowing when.

The erotic scene before him made his blood boil, and all his rationality was instantly eroded by the surging heat in his body.

He saw Liu Yiyi lying naked on the quilt, her legs open, her body covered with scars, her lips biting her fingers, and looking at him with a frown.

"Brother Ying..."

Liu Yiyi's vision began to blur. Seeing that the person in front of the bed had not moved, she reached out and pulled the person over...

Liu Bojian cursed, then remembered that Xiao Yan said he would be busy with government affairs all day. Lust drove him to kiss her eagerly.

If he was sober, he could still control himself. But not only did he drink the tea Xiao Yan had added ingredients to, he also smelled the added fragrance in the room. Even a monk would be outraged...

……

Ning Yi was carrying a bowl of bird's nest and walked to Fengkun Palace. When he didn't see Jinzhu, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He walked closer slowly, and when he heard a noise inside the house, he pushed the door open.

The noise in the room was unbearable. He quickly changed the aromatherapy and then walked to the door of Liu Yiyi's bedroom. Looking at the two people lingering on the phoenix bed, he said in a cold voice:

"What are you doing..."

……

Royal study room.

After hearing the report from the visitor, Eunuch Fu almost crawled into the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Is the Queen unwell?"

Xiao Yan looked up from the official documents and saw his panic. He frowned and said:

"What's wrong with the Queen? Why is she so flustered? Is there something wrong with the Emperor?"

Eunuch Fu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and spoke incoherently:

"No, it's... it's the Queen... According to the person who spread the news, the Queen is suspected of... having an affair!"

Xiao Yun stood up suddenly.

"What did you say?"
