However, the two had only taken off half of their clothes when they suddenly heard a noise outside the bathtub.

Murong Che finally found time to discuss his relationship with Xue Youli, but was suddenly interrupted. He frowned and asked unhappily, "Who?"

Xue Youli also turned around and looked towards the door.

At this time, the Book of Heavenly Secrets slowly appeared: [Host, I have detected that Nian Nian's Book of Heavenly Secrets is approaching here, and I have automatically activated the Book of Heavenly Secrets monitoring mode.]

Xue Youli just discovered a few days ago that his daughter had inherited his Book of Heaven's Secrets.

Although an agreement was reached with the little girl, some functions of her Book of Secrets can still be activated actively.

Recently, after detecting her daughter's Tianji Book, she found out that her own Tianji Book could be upgraded. After upgrading to version 2.0, it also has a touch screen function.

Xue Youli tapped his fingers in the air a few times, and the Book of Heavenly Secrets displayed three options:

【Parental supervision, children's Tianji Book can be set in the following three modes:

1. Infant and Toddler Mode

2. Teen Mode

3. Adult Mode

Xue Youli directly chose the infant mode.

After the setup was successful, Murong Nian's Book of Secrets could only provide simple services such as time, weather, and search for new words.

Murong Che waited for a moment, but received no reply. He slightly emphasized his tone and asked, "Who's outside?"

His voice was serious, with a hint of imperial majesty.

The next moment, a timid little voice came from the door, "Father, it's me."

As soon as Murong Che heard his daughter's voice, he separated from Xue Youli. He quickly put his clothes in order and when he spoke again, the tense expression on his handsome face softened. "Niannian, why are you here?"

"Father, I came here with my brother!"

Murong Nian was a little girl who was very good at reading people's expressions. She heard that Murong Che had a bad tone just now, so she quickly changed the subject, "I have memorized all the Analects that Mr. Han taught me today. I wanted to recite it to my mother, so I came to see her!"

How could Murong Che bear to say anything harsh to his daughter who was so lively and lovely?

He turned his head to look at Murong Yan who was standing next to him and waved to his son, "Yan'er, come here."

"Yes, Father."

Murong Yan walked forward and stood straight with his small body.

Murong Che lowered his eyes to look at his son in front of him and asked calmly, "Do you know you are wrong?"

Murong Yan lowered his head and said, "Father, I know I was wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"This son shouldn't have brought my sister into the Queen Mother's chambers without permission." Murong Yan was young, but his posture was perfect, his manners were excellent, and his attitude of admitting his mistake was also very upright. "This son will return immediately to reflect on his mistakes. I will never make such a mistake again."

Murong Che nodded slightly, very satisfied with his son's attitude of admitting his mistake.

Then, he turned his gaze and fell on his daughter. His voice and eyes became much gentler. "Niannian, come here too."

Murong Nian blinked his eyes, then quickly raised his head and stood at attention.

Her clear and bright eyes twinkled as she acted cute and coquettishly towards Murong Che, "Father, I know I was wrong. After you've scolded my brother, you can't scold me anymore!"

As she spoke, she stretched out her short little hand and shook the corner of Murong Che's clothes.

Murong Che looked at his daughter's chubby little face, his heart softening to the point that even his reply naturally became a lilting tone. "Since Nian Nian knows her fault, how can the emperor be willing to punish her? You and your brother should go back and finish the homework assigned by Mr. Han. The emperor will come over to have dinner with you tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay, okay!"

Murong Nian nodded her head, then went to hold Murong Yan's hand, "Brother, let's go!"

"Father, Queen Mother, your son and I will take our leave now."

Murong Yan bowed politely, then took his sister away.

After going out, the little guy considerately closed the door for them.

When leaving the bedroom, Murong Nian turned her head to glance at the tightly closed door, her eyes aggrieved, "Brother, why didn't father let us stay with them? Actually, I want to sleep with mother tonight."

Her father's eyes were fierce just now, and she didn't dare to ask this question in front of him.

Murong Yan was, after all, nearly four years older than her and knew more. "Because Father and Mother want to give us another brother or sister."

"really?"

Murong Nian's eyes lit up immediately when she heard this, and her distinct black and white eyes were full of anticipation. "Can I really be a big sister?"

Murong Yan raised his little hand and gently rubbed his sister's head, imitating an adult. "If everything goes well, you should be able to become a big sister next year."

"Great! That's great!"

Murong Nian jumped three feet high with joy, "I'm going to be a big sister!"

"Shh!" Murong Yan raised his index finger to silence her. "You can't keep talking about being a big sister until your little brother or sister comes."

"why?"

"Because the little brothers and sisters are very timid, they may be shy and embarrassed to come to the mother's belly after finally talking about it."

"That's it..."

Murong Nian frowned and thought for a long time, as if he understood something. Then his eyes lit up, "Then let's go back and sleep with our father, the emperor, and mother, and accompany them to welcome our little brother and sister!"

Seeing her turn around and about to go back, Murong Yan quickly held her back, "No, if our little brothers and sisters see us sleeping with our father and mother still clinging to each other, they will think we are not ready to be brothers and sisters, and they will not come into our mother's belly for the time being."

Then we won’t go, and don’t pester the Queen Mother to sleep with us. When we have little brothers and sisters, we can coax them and I can tell them stories! "

After saying that, she happily followed Murong Yan back.

In the bedroom, Murong Che sent the two little guys away, walked back to the bed, and hooked his arm around Xue Youli's waist again, "Ali, shall we continue?"

The two of them were already an old couple. Xue Youli patted the seat beside her and said, "Come on."

Murong Che is only 28 years old now, which is the age when he is full of vigor and vitality.

With Xue Youli's permission, the man's strong and tall body moved closer.

He first kissed Xue Youli's forehead, and then kissed down along her nose.

The warm breath sprayed on Xue Youli's skin, and the familiar numbing feeling instantly spread to every part of her body.

Murong Che could feel the body of the person in his arms becoming softer and softer, and delicate kisses fell on her. When he laid her down on the pillow, his body covered her.

"Ali...Ali..."

When the love reached its peak, Xue Youli heard the man calling her name over and over again in her ear, his voice low and lingering.

…………

On the first day of May, it was the day for the concubines in the harem to pay their respects to Xue Youli.

Among this group of people, except for Concubine Li and Concubine Chun who had been recuperating, everyone else entered the palace with Xue Youli.

Xue Youli has been promoted from a beauty to the master of the six palaces, but they have never even had the opportunity to sleep with her.

In the past, they still dreamed of holding on until Xue Youli grew old and lost favor with the emperor, and then their chance would come!

However, the fact is that under Murong Che's favor, Xue Youli not only became more and more beautiful, but also gave birth to a son and a daughter, making her a complete family.

Looking back at them, one or two of them are alone in their empty rooms, and their resentment is heavier than that of ghosts.

If they continue to waste time like this, they will probably die young.

So, after everyone discussed it, they sent Concubine Li as a representative to explain to Xue Youli their idea of ​​leaving the harem and living in the temporary palace to retire.

Concubine Li was Murong Che's subordinate, but she had disguised herself as a concubine in the harem for many years, and she also developed a love for the young and handsome emperor in her heart.

She knew that her idea was dangerous, so she agreed to everyone's suggestion and planned to leave the harem with everyone. "Your Majesty, I and my sisters would like to move to the Longshou Mountain Palace to retire. Please grant me your permission."

Xue Youli knew what they were thinking. She glanced at everyone and slowly said, "I understand what you all mean. The Emperor has previously discussed with me how to accommodate you. You are only in your twenties, the best age for women. How come you've already reached the point where you need to retire?"

Concubine Li thought Xue Youli meant she didn't want them to go to the palace, so she quickly said, "Your Majesty, I and my sisters are all longing for the beautiful palace. Please, Your Majesty, please help us."

Xue Youli pondered for a moment before replying, "I thought you were all in your prime. Wouldn't it be a waste of your lives to retire there? I've asked the Emperor for his opinion, and he's agreed to let you leave the palace. Once you're out, you'll be free. The Emperor will give you a brand new identity and allow you to marry freely. If any of you don't want to leave the harem, I'll ensure you live out the rest of your lives safely there. Think carefully about whether you want to stay, retire to the temporary palace, or leave the harem to pursue your own lives."

As soon as she said this, everyone fell silent.

After a long time, Concubine Chun slowly walked out from the crowd, "Your Majesty, I am now just a broken body... cough cough cough... I have nowhere to go if I leave the palace. Please allow me to go to the temporary palace and spend the rest of my life in peace... cough cough cough..."

Concubine Chun had been deeply hurt by her lover in the Summer Resort and had long lost her hope for love.

She just wants to live her life quietly by herself.

Life is too bitter. If there is an afterlife, she just wants to be a bird that can fly freely in the sky.

Xue Youli nodded, "Okay, what about the others?"

Concubine Li hesitated for a moment, then took a few steps forward and told Xue Youli what she was thinking. "I want to leave the palace, walk around, explore the vast world outside, and see the beautiful mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou."

With the two high-ranking concubines as examples, others also stepped forward to express their opinions, "Your Majesty, I am the only daughter in my family. My parents are old, and I want to go home to serve them."

"Empress, I want to..."

Everyone expressed their thoughts and chose their own future path.

Xue Youli asked Banxia to record everyone's thoughts one by one.

"After I explain your wishes to the Emperor, I will arrange for your departure."

"Thank you, Queen!"

After everyone left, Xue Youli went to Zicheng Hall to find Murong Che and told him what each of them was thinking.

"Your Majesty, I intend to respect their wishes and send them wherever they wish to go."

Those who want to stay in the palace can continue to stay. As long as they don't make trouble, it is not a problem to keep a few more people in the harem.

If you want to live in a temporary palace for retirement, then send them there. Isn’t it a kind of happiness to live a simple and worry-free life?

Send those who want to reunite with their families home. With their loved ones around, life will always get better and better.

Murong Che listened to her plan patiently and nodded, "Your plan is very good, let's do it according to your idea."

"it is good."

Five days later, Xue Youli personally escorted the concubines out of the palace, "Sisters, have a safe journey and take care!"

"Please take care of yourself, Queen!"

Xue Youli watched them get on the carriage and head towards their own lives, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart.

Several concubines did not want to marry again, so they all followed Concubine Li to the temporary palace.

Some people may think it is sad that they have to be widows at such a young age, but in fact, there are palace maids and eunuchs in the palace to serve them with food, clothing, housing and transportation. They have good food and drink every day and can also stroll in the courtyard with mountains and water. Their life can be said to be very comfortable.

It is always more comfortable to go to the palace than to be restricted in the harem. You don’t have to spend all your energy fighting for favor in the underground palace. You can kill time by eating melon seeds and playing cards with your sisters every day. How nice!

Concubine Li lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced towards the palace gate.

Farewell, Your Majesty. I wish you all the best and a long life!

"Sister Li Fei, this cake tastes really good, you should try it too!"

There were four concubines riding in the same carriage with Concubine Li, including Duan Cainv.

She has always had a good attitude.

Concubine Li was still feeling a little sad when she left the palace. Seeing Duan Cainu enjoying everything she ate, she couldn't help but ask, "You're still young, why did you choose to retire in the palace? Wouldn't it be better to go home?"

"My father has six daughters, and I'm not favored at home. If I return home like this, my father might think I made some terrible mistake in the palace and was sent home! I'd rather live in the temporary palace and just eat, drink, and have fun every day without having to worry about anyone trying to murder me!"

"That's right. Once we go to the temporary palace, we can completely escape the disputes in the harem and live a relaxed and comfortable life!"

The other concubines in the carriage nodded in agreement. "That's right, that's what we thought too! Falling in love with a man as high and mighty as the Emperor will only lead to misfortune. It's better to stay away from men and live your own wonderful life!"

Concubine Li listened to their opinions with a smile, and felt more and more that her decision to leave the palace was the right one.

Human desires are always endless. Seeing the emperor and the empress being affectionate in the harem every day, it is easy for resentment to arise in one's heart over time, and she may eventually do something wrong that she herself dare not even think of.

Therefore, it is wise to withdraw from this unrequited love that will never be reciprocated.

The Imperial Palace, Fengyi Palace.

Chu Xinyue heard that Xue Youli had dismissed the harem and happily came to the palace to find her.

"Ali, you can do it! You really are the only favorite in the harem! But those concubines who chose to go to the temporary palace are actually quite smart. They live a retired life in their twenties and have avoided decades of detours. It's good!"

"Yes, they went to the palace together so they wouldn't be lonely and helpless when they get old."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xinyue reached out and held her arm, "When we get old, let's find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live!"

After hearing what she said, Xue Youli immediately thought of Rong Qingyue.

Some time ago, she received a letter from Rong Qingyue, telling her that she and her son were living well in Jiangnan.

"Great, maybe I can see old friends when I go to Jiangnan!"

Chu Xinyue hugged her tightly, "Now everyone has their own home in this little world."

Xue Youli turned to look at her and added softly, "Including you and me."

Yes, everything seems to have ended here.

And everyone's life has a brand new beginning.

I believe that everyone will become the protagonist of their own life and write a more exciting story!
