He ordered: "Bring some light and delicious porridge, everyone go down!"

He pulled Lu Zhihuan up and said, "I left the palace after I left you that morning and have just returned."

Lu Zhihuan: "Then you've been cheated on."

Qi Yan: ...

He was so angry that he laughed, "You are the only one who is brave."

He explained: "She was my stand-in, wearing my human skin mask. When Concubine Yu went there, he was afraid of being exposed, so he let her in. Concubine Yu sent some food, and he wanted to send Concubine Yu away quickly, so he ate some. But he didn't expect Concubine Yu to drug me. Before, I never ate anything they sent, I always gave it to Eunuch De. Concubine Yu didn't expect him to eat it, and when she saw him eat it, she refused to leave. As for Concubine Yu's clothes, they were just used to tie her up. I didn't have time to deal with her, so I came to you first. Fortunately, I came."

Lu Zhihuan’s focus was always strange: “Even after taking Chinese medicine, your substitute is still in control?”

Qi Yan gave her a slap on the head: "My secret guards are not useless."

It didn’t work out!

He reached out to pull her over, but she dodged reflexively.

"Lu Zhihuan!" Qi Yan yelled.

"I'm dirty and need to change my clothes." Lu Zhihuan said embarrassedly.

Qi Yan was very smart: "So you vomited after listening to Yue Po's words, because you felt that I touched Yupin and it made you sick!"

“I…”

"I want to hear the truth." His tone brooked no room for rebuttal.

"I will restrain myself in the future. Not to mention Your Majesty, every minister in the court has three wives and four concubines." She said this to him and to herself.

Just think of it as finding a duck for yourself. She was being sentimental, Qi Yan was the target of the mission. Don't let his good looks and gentle treatment dazzle you.

She said, "Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty treats everyone equally, and the six palaces are peaceful. The harem is deeply intertwined with the former dynasty, and I dare not favor one over the other. You are a wise ruler. While the former dynasty is busy, the harem must also be treated equally. There must be no fire in the backyard."

Qi Yan became increasingly furious when he heard this. She was clearly right, but he just didn't want to listen.

I don’t know how to describe it. I didn’t expect that even as an emperor I would have to suffer such humiliation.

"When I was young, I was often bullied by other princes and princesses. Do you think that was because my mother had no power? No, it was because my mother was not favored by my father. At that time, Concubine Yan came from a peasant family. Did she have power in the court? No. Only strategy and calculation can keep the court in check, not relying on women. As an emperor, I always consider many things. If it weren't for my life, I wouldn't even want the throne."

He sighed helplessly: "There are many ways to check and balance the court. If it weren't for the sake of an heir, I wouldn't allow my mother to fill the harem with so many women. There are so many people my age who are about to become grandfathers. By the time I get there, I haven't even laid an egg."

"Puchi." Lu Zhihuan really couldn't help it.

996 [Qi Yan told you about his unimaginable pain, and you actually laughed. You have no heart.]

He said that on purpose, just to tease me! Why are you always so nagging? Besides, I haven't even settled the score with you yet!

996【…】

"Your Majesty, how can you be so naughty!"

Qi Yan breathed a sigh of relief and held her in his arms: "You don't have to care about what the Queen Mother said that day. Don't feel pressured. I just want to be with you now. Don't tell me to let the rain and dew fall evenly on me." He said the last few words with gritted teeth.

He was the emperor, but he didn't even have this little freedom. For the sake of having offspring, he had to visit his concubines whether he liked it or not in the first ten years.

"Then I take it seriously. I am very petty and have a bad temper. If I get angry, I need you to comfort me. Your Majesty, can you tolerate it?"

Qi Yan smiled confidently: "Throwing a tantrum, angry? Then it must be my fault."

Lu Zhihuan laughed cunningly: "Really? Your Majesty, please keep your word."

996 [……] Qi Yan must see what my host’s “truth” is.

Lu Zhihuan [Actually, women are emotional, not unreasonable. When they are unreasonable, it's because you haven't found the right way to make them understand your reasoning. Whose fault is that?]

996【That makes sense.】

Lu Zhihuan raised her head slightly, looked directly at the emperor, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, if I sometimes act capriciously and unreasonably, will Your Majesty tolerate me?"

996【Qi Yan must answer carefully (pinching the handkerchief)】

Qi Yan looked at the lovely Lu Zhihuan in front of him, and his heart softened. He answered without hesitation: "Of course." His tone was firm and gentle, as if he was making a promise.

Lu Zhihuan's face tensed, "So Your Majesty also thinks I'm unreasonable."

Qi Yan: ...

Lu Zhihuan: "Who do you like, me or Tony?"

Qi Yan tilted his head: "Who is Tony?"

Lu Zhihuan pouted: "Your Majesty, shouldn't you just say you like me? Why are you asking who she is? Does it matter who she is?"

996【…】

Qi Yan: ...

"Do you think I'm unreasonable?"

Qi Yan said cautiously: "No."

Lu Zhihuan held her cheek, smiling charmingly and seductively: "Am I beautiful?"

Qi Yan was captivated: "Of course she is extremely beautiful."

"Then where do I rank in your heart?"

996【Please be careful.】

Qi Yan answered quickly: "First."

Lu Zhihuan undressed bit by bit: "Who is the second one? Who is the third one? It turns out that the emperor has other beauties in his heart. Shouldn't I be the only one?" She covered her chest and acted pretentiously.

He rubbed her cheek amusedly and helped her change her clothes, and the tense mood of the past few days was relieved.

"Zhizhi is the only one in my heart. Please don't give up on me so easily, okay?"

He is the emperor, he owns the whole world, yet he seems to have nothing. But she approaches cautiously, he can feel it, yet she seems so ethereal.

996 [He's so sensitive. He understands the psychological changes you've just gone through.]

Lu Zhihuan: [He came to my place the first thing after returning? He must have been outside for a while!]

996 […Yes. He was there when you asked Yuepo.]

Lu Zhihuan [Did my reaction satisfy him? He was testing me. He's always rational, weighing the pros and cons first. He'll do anything to get what he wants. That's his nature.]

996: [For example?]

Lu Zhihuan: [With Yue Po's skill, how could he not know of his existence? He allowed or acquiesced to Yue Po's words.]

996【It means he likes the host.】

Seeing that Lu Zhihuan didn't speak for a while, he silently helped her put on her clothes.

"Eat something!" Qi Yan said.

Lu Zhihuan smiled and said, "Well, Your Majesty hasn't had dinner yet! No matter how busy you are, you have to eat."

Qi Yan pulled her to the table and sat down: "I will eat with you!"

"it is good."
