Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence

His younger brother finally agreed to take over the Dark Web. Upon hearing this good news, the Emperor was overjoyed, his face curling up slightly. He waved his hand gently, signaling to put aside the mountain of memorials on his desk.

At this moment, all he wanted was to go visit his mother with his brother.

The Empress Dowager now resides in the solemn and majestic Cining Palace. On the way to the Cining Palace, there is a must-see place: the Imperial Garden. This garden, with its lush flowers and breathtaking beauty, is like a fairyland, attracting countless people's attention.

The Emperor and Prince Ye did not choose to ride in the luxurious imperial chariot as usual, but walked side by side. They decided to walk from the Imperial Study, through the winding path, to the Cining Palace.

Along the way, the two brothers chatted and laughed, as if forgetting all the troubles and worries in the palace. Behind them followed a group of respectful eunuchs and palace maids, led by Eunuch Jingde, who served them carefully and did not dare to neglect them in the slightest.

As they walked, the Emperor suddenly turned with interest and asked curiously, "Royal brother, what books have you been studying lately? Have you encountered any interesting things while traveling? Tell me about it!"

The emperor would rise early every morning to wash and read, then wait for his courtiers to arrive for court. After the court was dismissed, he would enjoy breakfast and then begin his day of reviewing memorials. He could only take a short nap at noon, and his daytime activities were incredibly busy.

Therefore, the emperor was also very curious about the outside world. Every time his younger brother came back from a trip, he would ask about the new places and interesting things in the outside world.

Ye Wang Li Ruize wanted to say that he hadn't encountered anything interesting, but suddenly he thought of Su Yu, a young man he had never even met.

He said: "The pine needle wine that the emperor specially rewarded me last time allowed me to meet an interesting young man."

"Oh, which family's descendant has won the favor of our King Ye?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

He knew his younger brother well. He seldom praised others and read a wide range of books. Anyone who was described as "interesting" by him seemed to be no ordinary person.

King Ye was not very interested in Su Yu's family background, so although he sent people to follow him, he never asked any questions. He only knew that he was an ordinary teenager living in Taohua Lane, a civilian area in the west of the city.

Prince Ye thought, this person is probably not a nobleman. How can a nobleman live in a slum?

Prince Ye thought for a while and said calmly: "I don't know much about his family background. He should be just an ordinary teenager living in the slums."

"Oh..., that's the kid from a poor family. What do you think is so interesting about him, my dear brother?"

Seeing that his brother was genuinely curious, Prince Ye read the poem written by the young man to his brother.

"Last year on this day, the human face and the peach blossoms reflected each other's redness. I don't know where the human face has gone, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze."

Although the emperor had learned the art of controlling his subordinates since he was young and mostly managed state affairs, his attainments in poetry were no less than that of Prince Ye. He was immersed in poetry, and after a long while, he murmured: "I don't know where the person has gone, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze."

"What a good poem! It evokes a very strong sense of imagery. It feels as if I'm standing in a peach forest, waiting for a girl to arrive."

Eunuch Jingde interrupted at the right time and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you take a walk to the east side of the Imperial Garden, where the peach blossoms are in full bloom."

"Jingde, you are right. It is spring now. When we go to the Cining Palace, we will pass by the Imperial Garden. If we walk to the east, the peach blossom forest there should be very lush."

The group walked towards the east. Along the way, the scenery was lush and green, full of spring vitality. There were ancient cypresses and locust trees that could not be hugged by three people, huge rocks and rockery, and gurgling water. Willow branches were slanted long and green by the pond. When you get closer, you can see red-tailed carp swimming happily in the pond, looking very happy.

The garden is full of blooming flowers, including magnolia, crabapple, lilac, peony, etc. Among them, the peony is the most gorgeous, with layers upon layers of full and rich flowers. Occasionally, there are a few pink butterflies flying above, and the scene is beautiful.

As the group was enjoying the beautiful spring scenery, a gentle, majestic and pleasant female voice came over, "Your Majesty, I greet the prince."

The gentle voice caught the attention of the two men, and they saw that the person coming was the Queen.

She wore a phoenix crown on her head. The crown was made of gold wire in the shape of a phoenix and inlaid with red gems. The ruby was hanging on her forehead, making her look like a fairy concubine. On both sides of her hair were gold hairpins in the shape of hollow teardrops with rubies of the same color. She had her hair half-tied up, and a tuft of hair was left on her shoulders.

She was wearing a bright red gown with a stand-up collar and waist-cinching detail featuring a phoenix pattern and gold thread. Her attire was simple yet royal.

When the queen finished bowing slightly, she looked up and saw a standard oval face in front of her eyes, with eyebrows like distant ink, eyes like autumn waves, a high and straight nose, and plump lips, making her look generous and dignified.

The emperor couldn't help but be fascinated by what he saw. The queen is already thirty-six years old this year. Although she is in middle age, she is still as graceful as ever.

He smiled gently and said: "You and I are husband and wife, there is no need to be so polite."

Prince Ye felt that he could not bear the Queen's greeting, so he had already stepped aside to show respect.

He then stretched out his hands respectfully, bent his body slightly, clasped his fists together, kowtowed to his chest and said: "Greetings, Empress Sister-in-law."

The Queen smiled graciously and said, "My Royal Brother, there is no need to be so polite."

Today, just after she finished her breakfast, she heard her personal maid Jinchai report that the Empress Dowager, her mother, had ordered her personal aunt Qinxin to leave the palace and bring back more than a dozen beautiful young women, all of whom were of extraordinary status.

Upon hearing this, she remained expressionless, but felt uneasy in her heart. Could it be that her mother was going to choose a concubine for the emperor?

She was panicking, so she fiddled with her gold and silver hairpins for a long time before she finally looked beautiful yet not complicated, and lively yet dignified.

So she sent people to monitor every move in the imperial study, and report to her as soon as the emperor came out.

That's why it was such a coincidence that I happened to meet King Ye and his group in the Imperial Garden.

Before the emperor arrived at the imperial garden, the queen had already received news that the group of young women were enjoying the peach blossoms in the peach forest in the east. They were not enjoying the flowers at all, they were clearly there to steal men.

She felt indignant.

So she looked at the emperor and asked tentatively: "Are you accompanying your younger brother to the Imperial Garden to appreciate the flowers today?"

The emperor looked at his queen Murong Xue and said happily: "Today, my mother sent someone to say that I and my brother should go to the Cining Palace for dinner. She said it was a family dinner specially prepared for my brother."

Upon hearing this, the queen finally relaxed the breath she had been holding since morning. As long as those beauties were prepared for her royal brother, it would be fine as long as her friends died rather than her own.

But those little goblins don’t even think about meeting King Ye so easily, humph!!!!!

So she suggested: "Well, today I was admiring the flowers in this garden and happened to meet Your Majesty and your younger brother. Why don't we go together? I haven't seen my mother for a few days and I miss her very much."

"Okay, it's rare that your royal brother is here, let's have a reunion dinner together." The emperor didn't know anything yet and nodded to show his agreement.

As they spoke, they walked towards the Cining Palace, completely forgetting about going to the east to see the peach blossoms.

Eunuch Jingde, who was standing behind the emperor, kept glancing at the peach blossom forest in the east with the corner of his eyes. He was sweating coldly. He had messed up what the empress dowager had ordered him to do. He would have to bear the consequences in the future. He complained in his heart, thinking that it was so difficult to be a servant.

They left in a mighty procession. In the picturesque peach blossom forest, more than a dozen gorgeously dressed young ladies from aristocratic families were waiting for the arrival of King Ye, and were eager to try.
