Harem Daily Life

Ning Yuanhou was so angry that he almost died. After being pulled out by his niece, he said helplessly: "Can't you see that she covets Your Majesty? Why did you let them be alone together?"

My niece is young after all, and she doesn’t have any scheming!

Tao Yanyan smiled slyly: "Uncle, please be patient. Come on, I'll take you to see a good show." After that, she asked Eunuch Zhang to lead the way, entered from another door, and actually went around behind the emperor and others, hiding behind a screen. She could hear everything the people inside were saying clearly.

Ning Yuanhou was very nervous. Was his niece trying to eavesdrop on His Majesty? Was it really necessary to be so provocative?

Tao Yanyan pricked up his ears and listened quietly, ignoring the resentful look of Ning Yuanhou.

"Your Majesty, back then, I had no choice but to travel far away to the State of Yan to marry. Over the years, I have never forgotten the wonderful days we spent together." The Princess of Yan confessed her feelings right away, shocking He Linzhang.

He no longer had any memory of Princess Yan, so no matter what she said at this moment, it would not cause the slightest ripple.

The emotion that Princess Yan had expected did not appear on He Linzhang's face, but was replaced by a look of indifference.

She felt bitter in her heart: "Has Your Majesty forgotten our past? Or does Your Majesty blame me for choosing to go to Yan State?"

He Linzhang's eyes were cold: "After so many years, what's the point of talking about this now?"

Princess Yan was sad: "Of course it is meaningful. Your Majesty, you know that I was one of the candidates for the Crown Princess back then. The reason why I went to marry was that I wanted to do my best to ensure your smooth ascension to the throne and the stability of the country."

I thought He Linzhang would be moved, and Princess Yan looked at him expectantly after she finished speaking.

He Linzhang frowned and said, "I was still the crown prince at that time. Even if you were working for the stability of the Great Zhou, you were also working for the late emperor. Don't involve me. Besides, my engagement with the Duke of Wang Guo had already been finalized. How could there be another candidate for the crown princess? Princess Yan, I have no romantic feelings for you. You have already been the queen of another country. I can't believe what you are saying about your lingering feelings for me."

The cruel words broke the heart of Princess Yan. She bit her lip in embarrassment, thinking about returning to Da Zhou. She kept recalling their past along the way. She was so happy that if she offered half of Yan Kingdom as a dowry, he would certainly accept her gladly. Unexpectedly, she got a sentence from him, "There is no love between you and me"!

"Your Majesty, Brother Zhang, are you so cruel that you must erase our past and make me sad?"

Ning Yuanhou and Tao Yanyan behind the screen got goosebumps all over their bodies. They rolled their eyes silently, with the same expression.

He Linzhang was also speechless: "Princess Yan, please be mindful of your status and words. If you want to talk about apology, I can talk to you, but if you want to talk about anything else, I have nothing to say."

Princess Yan shed a few tears and said, "Brother Zhang has a new lover and has forgotten his childhood sweetheart? Yes, I admit that Concubine Tao is indeed young and beautiful, but what can she bring to your majesty? She is nothing but a dodder clinging to your majesty. But I am different. I have firmly controlled the State of Yan and have power in my hands. As long as Brother Zhang nods and marries me into the palace, not only will I be given 80,000 taels of silver, but also half of the territory of Yan. What I can bring to Brother Zhang is far greater than all the concubines in your harem."

Tao Yanyan glanced at Ningyuan Hou from behind the screen: Didn't she say that it was not her intention to remarry Your Majesty?

Ning Yuanhou shrugged: How would I know? Women's hearts are as unpredictable as the sea.

Tao Yanyan continued to eavesdrop, only to hear He Linzhang say: "You don't have to say anything more, I will not accept you into the palace."

"I am fine as a concubine, I don't ask for the position of empress!" Princess Yan said anxiously, "Brother Zhang, I don't want to go back to Yan State anymore. I want to stay. From now on, Yan State will be handed over to Brother Zhang to manage. Can I accompany you?"

As Princess Yan spoke, she took a few steps closer, as if she wanted to get closer to He Linzhang.

He Linzhang's heart was filled with alarm: "What do you want to do? Just talk properly and don't touch me."

Tao Yanyan couldn't see what was going on inside, and when he heard the emperor's words that his reputation was no longer safe, his eyes widened in anxiety.

"Brother Zhang, just marry me. I can help you become the strongest overlord among the Three Kingdoms. The two of us can definitely make Da Zhou the number one country. Which concubine in your harem is as capable as me? Don't you want to be the most powerful king in the world?"

In this time and space, there are the Great Zhou, the Yan Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom, and an independent demon cult. If the Great Zhou can get half of the Yan Kingdom's land, it will indeed have a great advantage in becoming the number one in the world.

Ning Yuanhou was so anxious that he almost cried out in surprise. But looking at his beloved niece, why did she seem to be seriously considering the proposal of Princess Yan?

Oh my God, no! The Princess of Yan is not someone who is easy to get along with. Don't let her into the harem and muddy the waters!

Ning Yuanhou pushed Tao Yanyan, wanting to remind her to think of a solution quickly. Perhaps because he didn't control the strength well, Tao Yanyan lost her balance and fell out from behind the screen...

The Princess of Yan, who was almost hugging the emperor's waist, was startled by the person who suddenly appeared behind the screen and stood there in a daze.

He Linzhang was speechless. He saw clearly the moment the person rushed out. With this figure, this attire, and this exclamation, who else could it be but the little concubine he had met again?

He narrowed his eyes, looked at the confused Ning Yuanhou behind the screen, and said through gritted teeth: "Are you eavesdropping from behind?"

Although it is a question, the tone is very affirmative.

Ningyuan Hou knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty, I am innocent. This was all the idea of Concubine Tao, and I had no choice but to do it."

Tao Yanyan: "..."

Uncle, you are disloyal. Who was the one who was listening with such gusto just now? Well, who was the one with shining eyes?

She lay on the ground and raised her head slightly, revealing a shy smile of someone who had been caught doing something bad: "Your Majesty, can you help me up? Yan Yan can't get up!"

Her voice was so sweet that it could make one's bones weaken. Her big eyes looked at He Linzhang eagerly, as soft and delicate as they could be.

He Linzhang sighed silently in his heart, walked forward to pick her up, and squatted down carefully to look at her knees.

"I'm not hurt. I used my hands to support myself, and my hands do hurt a little!" Tao Yanyan said coquettishly.

Ning Yuanhou, who was kneeling on the ground, felt relieved and was glad that he was smart enough to put the blame on his dear niece! With such a soft tone, which man would not be confused!

He Linzhang hurried to look at her hands. They were a little red and dirty, but fortunately there were no scratches or breaks.

Tao Yanyan took the opportunity to get close to He Linzhang, and their postures became intimate. Princess Yan came to her senses and was furious when she thought that her confession was heard by these two people. "Princess Tao, your hobby is really special. You actually like to eavesdrop? What crime should you be punished for?"
