All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert
Chapter 12 The Princess Whose Parents Are Orphaned
Lin Ruan and Xie Yunze stayed in the Queen's Palace for lunch. Not long after, the Emperor also arrived. After the Emperor and the Empress discussed it, the Emperor asked Lin Ruan, "Ruan'er, when do you plan to go to Jiangnan?"
Lin Ruan thought for a moment before saying, "Uncle, I want to go back to the Anning Marquis's Mansion with my husband in six days. Besides, I have something I want to ask you..."
The emperor said softly, "Oh? Tell me first, what do you want to ask me?"
Lin Ruan said, "My uncle also knows that I'm not very familiar with my father's family, the Jiangnan Lin family." Lin Ruan frowned slightly, "I remember that when my father was alive, he didn't interact much with them. He was afraid that if I went there, they would send someone to invite me. After all, they are my father's family..."
The emperor asked, "Do you want to visit the Lin family?"
Lin Ruan pretended not to know the emperor's deliberate probing and replied, "It may be a little unfilial to say this, since they are my father's relatives after all, but I still want to ask my uncle for a verbal order or a promise not to let the Lin family disturb me and my husband." Lin Ruan said somewhat angrily, "If we don't contact them when they are here, wouldn't it be even more annoying if they keep coming after us when they are gone?"
The emperor put down his chopsticks and nodded. "That's fine. When your father was alive, he had some dirty dealings with them. People with different ideals cannot work together. You don't have to meet them. If they use blood ties to pressure you... Come, call the head of the Imperial Hospital—"
Then he continued to say to Lin Ruan, "If the Lin family dares to accuse you, you can directly convey my oral instructions and say that I said it. There is no need to see them."
After saying this, he looked at Lin Ruan with a loving gaze, "Just now in the Imperial Study, I asked Zhang Yuanzheng to check the pulse of the Prince Consort. Now let him check your pulse to make sure it's safe, so that I can feel more at ease."
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Emperor." Lin Ruan thanked him and then asked in a low voice, hesitantly, "Then Zhang Yuanzheng can be called the Prince Consort..."
The emperor shook his head, and Xie Yunze beside him showed a bitter expression.
Even now, Xie Yunze still feels a sense of unreality. How could he not be able to bear it just because of a kiss?
Can he still be called a man now?
Seeing the silent Xie Yunze, Lin Ruan took advantage of the wide sleeves of her palace dress to quietly hold Xie Yunze's hand and squeeze it gently.
Even though Xie Yunze was feeling confused and depressed at the moment, his ears still turned red because of Lin Ruan's bold behavior in front of the emperor and empress.
The queen looked at the couple's little actions, which they thought were unknown to others, and secretly winked at the emperor. The emperor also seemed to be concerned and blinked at the queen.
"I will soar and fly, I will hunt ducks and geese. I will add the words of hunting to it, and it will suit you. I will drink wine and grow old with you."
They had once been a young couple, and now, despite the emperor boasting a harem of three thousand beauties, he still trusted only the empress. Perhaps this trust was compounded by many preconditions, such as the lack of influence of the empress's mother's family and the fact that she had no sons of her own, but it couldn't be said that this trust had nothing to do with the years they had shared.
So many years have passed, and the queen hasn't received such straightforward expression of love from the emperor for a long time. She couldn't help but feel her cheeks burning, but a sense of inexplicable melancholy welled up in the depths of her heart.
"Princess, do you really not regret this?" Xie Yunze asked before bed. His voice was low and sharp, and Lin Ruan suddenly thought of the puppy that had lost its home and was caught in the rain. Xie Yunze's eyes were also wet at this moment, revealing a hint of worry and doubt, as if he was full of uncertainty about what was about to happen.
Lin Ruan smiled slightly, blinked her star-like eyes, and said in a delicate voice, "What are you regretting? Am I regretting that such a handsome and elegant man will only belong to me from now on?"
There was a hint of playfulness and confidence in her voice, as if she had already seen through everything. Then, she reached out and gently stroked Xie Yunze's face, feeling the warmth under his skin, her eyes full of affection.
Xie Yunze couldn't help but laugh at Lin Ruan's words, but he was also moved. He held Lin Ruan's hand tightly and replied softly, "It is the greatest honor of my life to be favored by the princess."
Lin Ruan's heart warmed upon hearing this, and a blush spread across her cheeks. She leaned against Xie Yunze's shoulder and said softly, "Having Yulang by my side is truly my good fortune. Besides, after we got engaged, the maid secretly gave me a few of her best-kept collections of calligraphy and paintings. I used to think some of them were too good. If you, my husband, feel I've been wronged, why not take a look? How can the pleasure of sex be limited to just one?"
In her original world, Lin Ruan couldn't accept the idea of sex. She was used to being a bitch, and she'd always been served by a dog in bed. But this was ancient times after all, and any normal man would find her habit humiliating, so how could he willingly accept it? But what was the point of forcing her?
So she simply destroyed Xie Yunze's dignity as a man, at least she could be truly happy.
Although Lin Ruan's words were bold and reckless, they were like a breeze that blew away the haze in Xie Yunze's heart, making him curl the corners of his mouth slightly, but then his eyes dimmed as if he thought of something.
The reality of his inability to do anything hung like a heavy, dark cloud over his entire world, eclipsing all joy. No matter how beautiful or joyful a moment, once obscured by this dark cloud, it quickly dissipated, leaving only a dull and oppressive feeling within him. It was as if a heavy burden weighed on his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
This sudden attack caught Xie Yunze completely off guard. The food he had consumed that day was repeatedly examined, but nothing was found. The imperial physicians could only deduce that he had taken an extremely cold medicine, but they couldn't pinpoint the exact time or duration of his consumption. Xie Yunze felt lost, bewildered, and helpless.
He tried to identify the culprit, to hate the one who had attacked him, but now he had no idea who his enemy was. This feeling of powerlessness tormented him, plunging him into a painful struggle. He began to suspect everyone around him, but he could find no solid evidence. Anger and helplessness mingled within him, leaving him exhausted.
He had every reason to blame Lin Ruan. If he said something irresponsible, he might even think: If he had not married Lin Ruan, he might not have been poisoned at all!
Yet, at the same time, deep down, he was very aware of the true meaning of the words "he could have." In other words, even if he really went back to that moment in the past and started over, even if he didn't marry Lin Ruan, could he be 100% sure of avoiding this disaster? The answer was clearly no.
So, in the final analysis, the problem didn't lie with others but with himself, right? Perhaps it was precisely because of certain reasons that he was in such a predicament... Thinking of this, Xie Yunze couldn't help but feel a deep sense of helplessness welling up in his heart and sighed.
What's more, Lin Ruan was so nice that he couldn't bear to vent his anger on her.
He even felt that he was not worthy of Lin Ruan, so he was punished by the sudden disaster.
Xie Yunze fell asleep, and Lin Ruan also closed his eyes. The system, which had not appeared for a long time, suddenly spoke, "Host, I can cure him, you know."
Of course Lin Ruan knew that not only the system could cure Xie Yunze, but even she, Lin Ruan, could.
But she didn't want to. She didn't want to cure Xie Yunze.
"What's the point of treating a dirty cucumber?" Lin Ruan said to the system with disdain.
The system choked and paused before saying, "So you're going to let him stay like this for the rest of his life? He can't touch you?"
"Seventeen," Lin Ruan was already very sleepy and had no mood to argue with the system. "You are not human, so you don't understand. If I want to play, we can play even if he can't. If he is not impotent, then it is not a question of whether or not to play. Ancient men did not have the idea of keeping chastity. Sowing seeds in a brothel today and having fun in a brothel tomorrow. Even the emperor could get syphilis. If Xie Yunze was capable, he could be the bridegroom every night, touching her today and me tomorrow. Ugh, I can't do that. I cherish my life."
The system did not speak, but secretly complained that if the host showed even a little bit of unity of knowledge and action, it would not humiliate itself by proposing to treat Xie Yunze.
Why bother? If you don't act so affectionate, it won't affect Xie Yunze being tied up and killed in the princess's mansion. Why, does acting make you so happy?
( ?? Д ??)
"Seventeen, stop nagging in your mind, it's annoying." Lin Ruan said to the system.
The system was aggrieved, its voice trembling, "I didn't make a sound!ヽ`д′)┌┛"
Lin Ruan turned a blind eye to the system's grievances, "The sound of electricity is annoying."
If you want to add a crime, why don't you have any trouble?
The system is really wronged, but it doesn’t say anything because it’s useless even if it does.
