Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder

So cute.

Shao Lian pulled her hand and kissed her mouth several times before he slowly said, "Look, only after you spoke did I know what you were thinking. Only then did I know what I should say to you and what to say. If you didn't say anything, how could I know what was bothering me?"

Yu Ziyin looked over and pecked Shao Lian's lips lightly, "Then tell me."

Shao Lian looked at her innocent look, and felt sweet in his heart. He chuckled, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, nor do I want to protect the person behind it. I just want to tell you after I'm done with it. But since you're so curious, I can also tell you who the person behind it is."

"Who?"

"It's Wei Wenhan."

Yu Zinyin knew that Wei Wenhan was the name of Concubine Wei. Although she already had an idea and guessed that it was Concubine Wei who did it, she still felt a little chill when it was confirmed.

In the original book, after Shao Lian became emperor, one or two concubines in the harem went crazy, but in the end Queen Yan Yue could not find out why. Shao Lian rarely entered the harem and devoted himself to state affairs. He did not take this matter to heart at all. He just asked Queen Yan Yue, who was now Queen, to give comfort and expenses to the concubines' families, and the matter was left unresolved.

Concubine Wei was later overthrown by Liu Ziyu not because of this incident, but because Concubine Wei tried to harm the prince. So from beginning to end, the two concubines who died innocently became victims.

Now thinking of the descriptions of the concubines falling ill, Yu Zinyin thought that it must have been done by Concubine Wei.

But now, Concubine Wei used this trick on her first.

Thinking of this, Yu Ziyin looked at Shao Lian, "Then, will you deal with her?"

She was a little uneasy. She was afraid that Shao Lian would still ignore the matter as described in the original book. After all, Concubine Wei's family, General Wei's family, were not pushovers. Concubine Wei's brother, Major General Wei Zhe, worked under Shao Lian. Shao Lian would definitely consider Wei Zhe's face. So even if she made a big fuss about this matter, it was very likely that because she herself had not suffered any substantial harm, Concubine Wei would escape punishment, and it might even make Shao Lian unhappy, which would not be worth the loss.

"meeting."

"What are you going to do?"

Shao Lian did not feel unhappy or angry because of the question. Instead, he gently stroked a strand of her hair. The faint fragrance emanating from it made him feel happy. He said, "Qingqing, just wait and see. I will definitely take care of her and make you satisfied."

He knew Yu Ziyin's uneasiness and her distrust of him, so no matter how much he said, it would not be as easy as his actions. Only when Concubine Wei was really punished would Yu Ziyin trust him. Shao Lian was not in a hurry.

Seeing that the topic had been passively ended, Yu Ziyin wanted to talk to him about something else, such as his younger brother Liu Xian's marriage, but Shao Lian couldn't help but lead Yu Ziyin to the couch, and the bed curtains were lowered. "After chatting about trivial matters, let's talk about business first."

Shao Lian lowered his head and kissed the slender jade fingers. Before moving, he said, "My Queen Mother said that I should have a child. Even if it's a daughter, it's fine. Qingqing, you have to give me some support."

Shao Lian was only 21. It was normal for him to have no children nowadays, but in ancient times, it was too late. Men here were generally 18 and children could already walk. If the emperor, empress and ministers did not know that Shao Lian did not care much about this and that he rarely entered the backyard, they would have doubted Shao Lian's fertility.

But even so, the queen was still very anxious and secretly urged Shao Lian several times. Although Shao Lian did not have a crown princess, he had concubines, and a concubine named Liu who treated him sincerely. Because Shao Lian did not have a child yet, the queen did not care whether it was a bastard's son or daughter. As long as it was a child, the queen would love him very much.

In addition, the Queen had sounded out Shao Lian's feelings and knew that he had a good impression of Concubine Liu, so she urged him to have a child even more often, and even secretly gave him a lot of fertility-aiding drugs. If Shao Lian had not kept a close eye on Yu Ziyin, the Queen would have summoned her into the harem and asked the nanny who taught her in this area to teach her again.

Yu Ziyin was wearing an inner garment embroidered with white flowers today. Shao Lian's black hair swept across her snow-white skin, causing her body to tremble. She pushed it away, "Itchy."

Shao Lian casually took Yu Ziyin's belt, pulled her black hair back and tied it. He pulled his black robe down to his elbows, revealing his sturdy physique. He easily grabbed her knees with his big hands and pulled them up to his waist. While soothing her anxiety, he said, "Qingqing, you should also work harder."

Yu Ziyin's face turned red and she covered her eyes tightly with her hands. How could the ancient times be so conservative!

The two of them quarreled until the late night. Yu Ziyin had no idea how many times she had called for hot water. Her last memory was that she was curled up in Shao Lian's arms like a boneless person. In a daze, she stretched out her hand to stop Shao Lian's behavior, but it seemed as if she was trying to stop him, which made him even more presumptuous. In the end, she was forced to cry and say nonsense, saying things like "bastard" and "Shao Lian is a bastard".

Shao Lian kissed her earlobe, and after being pushed away again by her jade hand weakly but firmly, he bit her neck in revenge, leaving a tooth mark before letting go. Looking at Yu Ziyin's eyes that had burst into tears again, he kissed her face distressedly and patted her waist gently, "Qingqing, kneel down."

Later, Yu Zinyin could only rub his face weakly and cry out Shao Lian's name softly.

"I'm here." Shao Lian responded with a low laugh.

"Shall we sleep?"

"Aren't we sleeping?"

"It's not this kind of sleep, it's just simple sleep..."

"Our Qingqing is really confused. We are just sleeping."

Yu Ziyin couldn't stand it anymore. She would cry and hide under the quilt, but Shao Lian would drag her out. Her head was as dizzy as a paste, and she was easily fooled by the other party's coaxing words. He taught her to say a lot of things that she would never say on normal days before he let her go.

When Yu Ziyin woke up the next day, she recalled the ridiculous things she had done the previous night. She couldn't even concentrate on looking at the account book the whole day. Aunt Ping couldn't help but worry, "My Lady Concubine, why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?"

Yu Ziyin quickly came back to her senses and patted her red cheeks. "A little bit. Aunt Ping, can we stop here today? I want to go back and rest."

"Okay." Nanny Ping did not force Yu Zinyin. Yu Zinyin had worked very hard before and had never been lazy or slacking off, so Nanny Ping was naturally worried about Yu Zinyin saying she was not feeling well. She also asked if she needed to call the court doctor over.

Yu Ziyin politely declined, saying, "I'll just go back and lie down for a while."

"Then your Highness, have a good rest."

"Ah."

After saying goodbye to Nanny Ping, Yu Ziyin left the accounting office with Xi Que. When returning to Lanyue Pavilion, they would pass by the back garden. Unfortunately, or perhaps it was bad weather, Yu Ziyin met Concubine Wei and a group of other ladies.

Concubine Wei and Yu Ziyin were of the same rank and did not need to perform greetings to each other. As for the women behind Concubine Wei, they were jealous and resentful of Yu Ziyin. They were all on Concubine Wei's side, so they performed the greetings perfunctorily and did not take Yu Ziyin seriously at all.
