Reborn as a Sickly Child: The Emperor's Beloved

Shen Yanyan was held in Xiao Jingzhan's arms, looking a little dazed.

Xiao Jingzhan felt Shen Yanyan's soft body pressed against her, and his nostrils were filled with the faint fragrance of pear blossoms, which was the usual scent of Shen Yanyan, faint and very pleasant.

Shen Yanyan struggled for a while and left Xiao Jingzhan's arms, feeling a little embarrassed and putting on her shoes in a mess.

Xiao Jingzhan looked at her somewhat flustered movements, a smile flashed across his face, and there was an indissoluble tenderness in his eyes. He gently squatted down, held her flustered hands, and put on her shoes for her. The noble emperor knelt on one knee beside the bed and put on her shoes for her with extremely gentle movements.

Shen Yanyan was a little stunned. This kind of posture, let alone in ancient times, not many people would be willing to serve their wives in this way in modern times. Not to mention that he was the emperor. She felt her neck was cold.

"Your Majesty, I can do it myself. If anyone else sees this, I will lose my head." Shen Yanyan was stunned for a moment and then immediately realized that she had to put it on by herself.

Xiao Jingzhan didn't waste time talking to her. While putting shoes on her, he said, "You're so stupid that you step on the hem of your skirt when you stand up. Let me put them on for you." He smiled, put on his shoes, stood up, and helped her tidy up her messy hair.

Looking at Shen Yanyan's beautiful eyes staring at him, with her cherry lips right in front of him, Xiao Jingzhan felt his head getting hot and he just wanted to kiss her, so he did it as he thought about it.

He bent down and kissed her lips gently. He wanted to stop at just a quick taste, but her lips were so soft and sweet that he was reluctant to let go. He then stroked the back of her head with his palm and inserted his fingers into her hair, deepening the kiss.

Shen Yanyan's eyes widened as she looked at Xiao Jingzhan who was kissing her on the mouth, her face flushed. What the hell was he doing!

Seeing that he wanted to deepen the kiss, Shen Yanyan reached out and pushed Xiao Jingzhan, but the other party not only did not let go, but took the opportunity to attack and plunder.

His breath was so close that Shen Yanyan felt numb all over from the kiss. Her mind went blank and she completely forgot to resist. Her body gradually softened and she completely fell in love with him like a conditioned reflex.

After a while, Shen Yanyan felt that she could hardly breathe. She punched the man's chest with her pink fist, and the man let her go.

Xiao Jingzhan's eyes were as gentle as water, with a bit of lust in them. He looked at Shen Yanyan and smiled softly, saying lovingly, "Little fool, you can't even breathe."

Shen Yanyan's old face turned red, and she said angrily: "Who is stupid? Besides, if I could breathe, you would be cuckolded." After that, she used some strength to push Xiao Jingzhan away and quickly ran out the door.

They had to leave quickly. Even though they had never eaten pork, they had seen a pig run away. The way Lao Deng looked at her was abnormal.

Shen Yanyan hurriedly pushed open the door of the palace, and called Xia Zhu and Dong Xue outside the palace to run quickly to her palace, as if someone was chasing her.

Xiao Jingzhan looked at the person who ran away, his low laughter filled the entire inner room, and his eyes were filled with a strong possessive desire that could not be dispelled.

When Eunuch Li saw Concubine Yan running away quickly with her face flushed, he guessed what had happened in the inner room and was secretly shocked. He thought that His Majesty might have fallen in love with Concubine Yan. He had to serve her even better in the future.

After returning to Yaohua Palace, Shen Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little depressed. Why didn't she push Xiao Jingzhan away with force just now? No way, she couldn't have any feelings for him. Although that face was very handsome, she would eventually leave this palace. She couldn't really live with him for the rest of her life. He had so many women, and she would have to stay in this palace for the rest of her life until the day he died.

She could accept one or two years, three or four years, and she could endure five or six years, but what about the next few decades? She didn't dare to think about it, and she was sure that she couldn't live in the palace for decades. If she was asked to intrigue with the women in the palace when she was young, and if she won, she would become a superior person, and then die pitifully young, she would not be willing to do that. She had not had time to see the world, and she was unwilling to die, nor was she willing to waste her youth on a man and a so-called false reputation.

She is herself. She will not be anyone's appendage, nor will she rely on anyone to get some insignificant things.

It was the same in her previous life. She worked hard just to see the outside world, but she didn't expect that she would die before she could go out. In this life, she never wants to live that kind of life again. She has money and martial arts skills, and can guarantee her own life and safety. Why should she stay in this palace and share a husband with others, scheming against each other every day just to win power and favor that can disappear at any time?

Shen Yanyan calmed down and thought about the current situation. She had to work hard to survive in this palace and also find a chance to leave the palace.

At night, in the Yangxin Palace, Eunuch Li held the green card that had not been taken out for a long time, asking His Majesty which lady to go to tonight. Xiao Jingzhan said he was going to Yaohua Palace without thinking, and when he stood up, he looked at the wooden card on the plate again, and reached out to touch the cards of Jiang Ruyan and Sun Fangfang.

Seeing His Majesty touching the wooden sign, Eunuch Li explained, "Your Majesty, these are the new concubines Jiang and Sun. Concubine Jiang is the eldest daughter of Jiang Li'an, the prefect of Jinling, and Sun is the only daughter of Sun Jizhong, the deputy minister of the Ministry of War.

Eunuch Li quickly ordered the eunuch beside him to pass the message.

When Concubine Jiang learned that His Majesty was coming to Zhongcui Palace tonight, she could not suppress her joy. She smiled, her eyes sparkled with excitement, and her whole body exuded a kind of happiness.

She hurriedly summoned the maids to wash and dress her. The maids were busy preparing warm water, perfume and gorgeous clothes. Concubine Jiang sat in front of the bronze mirror, carefully combing her hair and gently applying perfume to make her hair exude a charming fragrance.

She carefully selected a gorgeous brocade dress, which was bright in color but dignified, and embroidered with exquisite patterns. The palace maids carefully dressed her, tied her belt, and adjusted her skirt. Concubine Jiang looked at her makeup and dress in the bronze mirror, making sure every detail was perfect.

After finishing her makeup, Concubine Jiang became even more beautiful and charming. She could not wait for His Majesty's arrival, her heart full of anticipation and happiness. The whole Zhongcui Palace was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and the palace maids were also happy for Concubine Jiang's joy.

When Xiao Jingzhan stepped into the palace, the palace servants had already prepared exquisite snacks and tea to welcome his arrival.

Xiao Jingzhan's eyes fell on Concubine Jiang after she washed up. She had her hair tied up high, her face was like a peach blossom, her skin was smooth, her eyebrows were like distant black, and her lips were like painted red. She was a beauty. Her every frown and smile was full of charm, like a blooming flower, exuding a charming fragrance.

Concubine Jiang was wearing a gorgeous dress with flowing hems and exquisite patterns embroidered on it, which set off her beauty. Her eyes were gentle and shy, which made people's heart beat. Xiao Jingzhan looked at the shy Jiang Ruyan, and a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes, which was very fast and elusive.

Jiang Ruyan hurried forward and saluted: "I pay my respects to your majesty, may your majesty be well." Xiao Jingzhan looked at Jiang Concubine's face and praised slightly: "My beloved concubine is indeed beautiful."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jiang lowered her head shyly.

"Please sit down, my beloved, and chat with me." Xiao Jingzhan said again.

Concubine Jiang sat on a round stool and invited Xiao Jingzhan to drink tea.

Xiao Jingzhan didn't drink the tea, but just watched the servants in the palace gesture to Concubine Jiang.

Concubine Jiang's face turned red, and she waved her hand to dismiss the palace maids.

Afterwards, she boldly walked towards Xiao Jingzhan, her eyes full of amazement: "Your Majesty, I will wait for you to rest." Your Majesty was more handsome than any man she had ever seen.

"Okay, my beloved concubine." Xiao Jingzhan smiled, held Jiang Concubine's arm and walked towards the bed. With a wave of his sleeves, the candles in the room went out one by one.

Xiao Jingzhan approached the bed step by step, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

He quietly took out a bottle of mysterious potion from his sleeve. The bottle was gleaming with light and exuded a faint dangerous smell. He put the bottle mouth close to Jiang Bin's nose, and the delicate liquid turned into a wisp of light smoke and seeped into her breath.

In an instant, Jiangpin's body became limp and her consciousness gradually blurred. Her eyes lost focus, as if she was swallowed by an invisible force.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingzhan showed a look of disgust on his face. He threw Jiangpin's body on the bed without hesitation, as if she was a dispensable item.

Concubine Jiang lay lifeless on the bed, as if she had lost her soul.

Her face was as pale as paper, and her original beauty disappeared at this moment.

After a while, Concubine Jiang on the bed seemed to have fallen into a sweet dream, her face flushed and her smile lewd.

Xiao Jingzhan stood beside the bed, staring at her coldly, and said to the dark night: "Come out."

Then a man in black appeared, knelt on his knees, and bowed to the person beside the bed: "Your Majesty."

"Interrogate her carefully and find out what the Jiang family told her. Don't waste Xuanmeng Powder." After Xiao Jingzhan said this, he took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped his hands, and threw it on the ground in disgust. He jumped out of the window, hid his figure and went to Shen Yanyan's Yaohua Palace alone.

Xuanmengsan, as the name suggests, will make people fall into hallucinations after taking it, unable to distinguish between reality and fantasy, and will fall into the state of taking Chinese medicine in their minds. If someone interrogates the person taking Chinese medicine after taking it, it is magical what the person will answer.

Seeing Jiangpin's flushed face, it goes without saying what she was thinking. An Yi, dressed in all black, stood by the bed and questioned her one by one. He questioned a lot of things. Jiangpin on the bed made some shameful noises from time to time. An Yi's eyes were cold and expressionless. Late at night, after questioning, An Ye pressed Jiangpin's sleeping point and left. Jiangpin on the bed turned pale in an instant and looked very weak.

Eunuch Li dismissed the palace servants and stayed outside the palace alone. When the noise in the room disappeared late at night, Eunuch Li returned to the Yangxin Palace alone.
