Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

The King of Wu ran around in excitement.

He made up his mind that he must meet this beautiful woman who seemed like a dream today. He turned around and quickly adjusted his gorgeous coat.

After arriving in Yanjing City, King Wu has been living in his sister's Yan Mansion. Princess Donglin knows King Wu's difficult situation, so she tried her best to compensate King Wu.

The cloud brocade robe that King Wu wore was the most popular clothing in Yanjing City at the time. The sleeves were like flowing clouds, and were embroidered with gorgeous Tan Palace laurel patterns. He wore a white jade crown on his head, and his chestnut black curly hair still retained the style of Donglin State, braided into a long braid, with a gorgeous Nanchu pearl at the end of the braid.

The King of Wu adjusted his appearance and asked his bodyguard Zhang Wulang, "Does this look of mine look impressive?"

Zhang Wulang nodded: "It is magnificent, but Your Majesty, the west side of Luoyue Lake is not open to the public."

King Wu fanned himself with satisfaction, "It's good to be grand. My unparalleled good looks will surely make that woman fall in love with me at first sight. Zhang Wulang, do you think I should return to Donglin to be a prince? If she is unwilling to return to Donglin with me, then I can only stay in Yanjing City... Well, I will find a way to bring my mother to Yanjing in the future so that our family can be reunited."

Zhang Wulang: ...

You are thinking too far ahead, Your Majesty, before we even start thinking about it.

The warm wind blew on his face, and the King of Wu waved the white jade fan in his hand again, like an elegant young man, looking at the girl he admired.

I had just taken two steps when I heard a "whoosh" sound.

Two sharp swords were unsheathed, and two guards in black brocade robes appeared and stood in front of the King of Wu.

The guard had a stern face and coldly reminded: "The front is a place for nobles to play, and outsiders are not allowed to approach."

King Wu narrowed his eyes and looked at the two guards in front of him. They were burly, with sharp eyes, and were wearing cold black armor, looking strong and powerful.

You can tell at first glance that he is not an ordinary person's bodyguard.

It shouldn't be the imperial guards or the city guards. King Wu had seen the imperial guards of Daqing before, and their clothes were not the right style. King Wu thought for a while and guessed that this was the servant of a general in Yanjing.

King Wu smiled and said, "I am not an outsider. The scenery of Luoyue Lake is infinitely beautiful. I think the pavilion in front is suitable for viewing flowers. Why don't you two pass on the message--"

The guard said coldly: "Don't come near. If you dare to take another step, I will kill you without mercy."

Two ordinary guards were so imposing that King Wu's heart was pounding with fear.

But he couldn't bear to leave.

The beautiful girl was right before his eyes, and he wanted to see her so much. King Wu explained: "I am the prince of Donglin Kingdom, and I sincerely want to see that noble lady. If you hurt me, it will destroy the peace between the two countries."

The guards don't care about the prince.

He held the sword in his hand and stabbed the King of Wu. The King of Wu was so scared that he stepped back again and again, and the white jade fan in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter. He kept saying: "Don't use force, I'm leaving now! I'm leaving now! Oh, whose servants are you? How can you be so fierce!"

Faced with the absolute force, the King of Wu dared not act rashly and had to leave in disappointment.

He hid at a considerable distance before stopping.

He glared at Brother Zhang Wu angrily: "As my guard, you should protect my safety. Those two guards drew their swords, but you ran faster than me!"

Brother Zhang Wu was helpless: "My Lord, I can't beat them."

The King of Wu was snorting angrily, looking into the distance unwillingly. The pavilion by the lake was drifting slowly, and the beautiful girl was nowhere to be found.

Probably went home to rest.

The King of Wu felt regretful, but was unwilling to give up.

For the next few days, he came to Luoyue Lake every day. Sometimes he was lucky and could see the girl's slender back from afar; but more often he was unlucky and got nothing.

...

...

Time passes quietly and early summer has arrived.

Shen Wei was not idle, spending every day exercising, doing beauty, and doing business. As the weather got hotter, Shen Wei changed the decoration of the bedroom from inside to outside. The interior decoration in summer should not be too complicated, but simple and elegant, which looks more comfortable.

At night, Shen Wei rested comfortably on the Luohan bed. The room was filled with fragrance, freshly picked lotus flowers were placed on the desk, and clear moonlight shone through the window screen.

Shen Wei was sleeping soundly when she vaguely felt the bed move.

Her cheeks itched.

Li Yuanjing came to the bed and called in a low voice: "Weiwei, I'm back."

Li Yuanjing returned ten days faster than Shen Wei expected. Shen Wei's nose moved, and she smelled a strong smell of dust and some lingering sweat.

Shen Wei was so sleepy that she said in disgust, "It stinks."

In the bedroom, Li Yuanjing was stunned for a while, lowered his head and smelled his sleeve...

There is indeed a sour smell.

After Nanchu's mess was resolved, Li Yuanjing rode back to Yanjing City at full speed, wishing he could travel a thousand miles a day, so he had no time to clean himself up. He traveled day and night and finally rushed back to the imperial manor in Yanjing City. He hugged Shen Wei for only a short while before she rejected him.

Li Yuanjing reluctantly got up and ordered the palace servants to prepare bath water and soap. It was late at night, and the bathroom was filled with steam. Li Yuanjing rubbed himself carefully and washed his hair.

The bath water was changed three times.

After changing into clean pajamas, Li Yuanjing wanted to return to Shen Wei's room. But when he looked at himself in the silver mirror, he saw that his beard was scraggly and there was a strand of white hair on his temples, which made him look rather unkempt.

Li Yuanjing sighed.

He took out a razor and shaved his sloppy beard, halfway through. The door behind him creaked, Li Yuanjing heard light footsteps, and Shen Wei's slender figure was reflected in the silver mirror.

Li Yuanjing paused, turned around and stared at Shen Wei for a long time.

The candlelight was dim. Shen Wei was wearing a thin light green summer shirt. Her black hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin, revealing her smooth and white neck.

It was still the Shen Wei in his memory. She hadn't changed after all these years.

Li Yuanjing whispered, "Did I disturb you?"

Shen Wei slowly shook her head: "It's not a bother - the journey is long, there's no need for you to hurry."

Li Yuanjing put down the razor and said, "Weiwei, I want to see you sooner."

Shen Wei walked up to him, washed her hands first, wiped the water stains on her hands, then picked up the razor on the table and approached him. Li Yuanjing was obviously stunned, and he vaguely guessed that Shen Wei wanted to shave him.

But Li Yuanjing didn't dare to think about it.

Since he abdicated, Shen Wei has revealed her true nature. She is no longer as obedient and considerate to him as before. Li Yuanjing feels regretful, but he can only accept it and sinks into Shen Wei's charm.

He loves Shen Wei deeply.

Love makes him surrender.

"Lean back in the chair and I'll shave you." Shen Wei whispered.

Li Yuanjing's heart seemed to be stroked by an invisible hand, and the fatigue from traveling thousands of miles over the past few days disappeared.

He sat back on the bench, tilting his neck upward, while Shen Wei applied a hot towel to his face. The two were so close that Li Yuanjing could smell the faint fragrance of lotus flowers on Shen Wei.

The lively Shen Wei is right within reach.

Li Yuanjing was satisfied.

Even if Shen Wei cut his throat with this razor tonight, Li Yuanjing would never resist.
