Having many handsome men means no worries; pampering them all keeps me in good spirits.

"No way!" Lu Nian and Yi Luo both frowned and objected at the same time.

Jiang Qingyan took a sip of tea and explained, "I just wanted to sound out the Third Prince's opinion. Since he's not truly a homosexual, he'll naturally feel uncomfortable if I take you all with me."

The two did not refute her further. What the Emperor said did make sense. The reason why the Third Prince fled in such a panic today was because the Emperor had tried to force a man upon him.

Jiang Qingyan took their hands and said patiently, "Right now, I just want to retrieve the Snow Silkworm as soon as possible and return to Da'an. Everything else in Xia Kingdom is just a charade."

Lu Nian and Yi Luo nodded, saying nothing more. The Regent was currently unconscious, waiting for them to retrieve the Snow Silkworm to save his life, and yet they were still arguing over him… how rather immature of them…

"Alright, we've been up all night, I'm so tired, you guys should go back and rest too." Jiang Qingyan yawned, took off her outer garment, and lay down on the bed.

But Lu Nian and Yi Luo showed no intention of leaving, staring at each other in a daze.

Jiang Qingyan raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you two fighting cocks in the middle of the night? Aren't you going back to sleep?"

Upon hearing this, the two turned to look at Jiang Qingyan at the same time, but remained silent and hesitant.

Jiang Qingyan already understood. She moved to the inside of the bed to make room and said lazily, "Nianlu, stay tonight. Luo Yi has already served you once. From now on, you can each have one night. Is that fair?"

Yi Luo gritted her teeth, strode out of the room, and thoughtfully closed the door behind her.

Oh well... I'll just have to bear with it... Tomorrow's his turn...

Lu Nian stood there, somewhat nervous. He had only slept in the same bed with the Emperor once, back in the medicine hut, and a long time had passed since then…

Jiang Qingyan patted the spot beside her and said softly, "What are you standing there for? Take off your clothes and get into bed."

Upon hearing this, Lu Nian's heart raced even faster, and his ears turned slightly red. He slowly took off his outer robe and lay down beside Jiang Qingyan.

Jiang Qingyan pulled Lu Nian's arm up and used it as a pillow, then draped another arm over his body, smiling gently, "Do you remember back at the medicine hut, when you were injured, you slept with your head on my arm..."

Recalling everything that happened at the medicine hut, Lu Nian could no longer suppress the restlessness in her heart and leaned down to kiss Jiang Qingyan's lips.

Lu Nian's kisses were always aggressive, both passionate and deep... Jiang Qingyan responded lightly with her tongue, and the only sound in the quiet room was the wetness of their kiss...

Lu Nian's hand slid down to Jiang Qingyan's waist, and just as he was about to untie the ties of her undergarment, Jiang Qingyan hurriedly grabbed his hand.

Lu Nian paused, slowly withdrawing her tongue from Jiang Qingyan's mouth, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why? Why doesn't my husband want me anymore?"

Jiang Qingyan stared at Lu Nian's slightly reddened eyes, gently patted his back, and said softly, "Because I genuinely like you, I need to give you a title before I can have you."

A complex emotion flashed across Lu Nian's eyes. He had never imagined that the Emperor would actually grant him a title...

Jiang Qingyan tilted her head back slightly, took Lu Nian's lips into her mouth again, and sucked on them gently.

Lu Nian closed his eyes, and the bitterness in his heart vanished instantly. He passionately responded to Jiang Qingyan's kiss until they were exhausted, and then the two fell into a deep sleep.

The next two days were divided according to the rules set by Jiang Qingyan: Yi Luo for one night, Lu Nian for one night. Of course, it was just kissing; nothing else was done… All three of them were itching to get back to work, but they could only endure it…

Finally, on the third day, Jiang Qingyan lazily woke up from Lu Nian's arms, pouting her swollen lips from their kisses, and muttered, "Why do my lips feel a little hot?"

Lu Nian pursed her lips, feeling a little guilty, and quickly got up to help Jiang Qingyan put on her clothes.

At this moment, Yi Luo pushed the door open and entered, carrying three bowls of porridge and side dishes.

Seeing that the two had just gotten up, Yi Luo grumbled somewhat unhappily, "When I served you last night, my husband got up much earlier than he did today."

Jiang Qingyan rolled her eyes at him. Wasn't it because they started kissing before dawn, waking her from her sweet dream? She just couldn't expose him in front of Lu Nian!

After eating and drinking their fill, the three decided to take a stroll in the street. As soon as they got out, they saw a group of people gathered together, seemingly arguing about something.

Jiang Qingyan curiously leaned over to take a look, and it turned out to be the scarred man and Xuan Ye!

The scarred man, accompanied by more than twenty burly men, surrounded Xuan Ye, his tone carrying a hint of pleading: "Just come with me, okay? I'll buy you a house and take care of you, won't that be enough?"

Xuan Ye snorted disdainfully, "I have my own hands and feet, I don't need anyone to support me, and besides, I am now free, so don't push your luck."

Seeing that gentle persuasion wasn't working, the scarred man decided to try force, stepping forward and grabbing Xuan Ye's arm.

Jiang Qingyan hurriedly stepped forward and shouted angrily, "In broad daylight, do you intend to forcibly abduct... that... man...?"

Upon hearing this, Scarface immediately released his grip, narrowed his eyes, and revealed a murderous intent in them.

That woman's whiny voice... isn't that the person who snatched Xuan Ye's virginity from him at Qingfeng Pavilion that day?

I've been looking for him for two days straight without success, but today he just walked right into my doorstep...

The scarred man slowly turned around, his right hand gripping the sword at his waist, but he was stunned into place by Jiang Qingyan's stunning beauty.

This person is even more stunningly beautiful than Xuan Ye…

The scarred man smirked wickedly: "Perfect timing! I'll take you both back today and have you kill two birds with one stone tonight!"

Jiang Qingyan frowned in disgust and said coldly, "It's like a toad chasing a frog, ugly as it is! Even if you're so poor you don't have a mirror, you must have urine, right? Hurry up and take a piss and look at yourself!"

The scarred man chuckled, "Such a clever tongue. You must be quite skilled with words. I can't wait to try it out."

After saying that, the scarred man walked towards Jiang Qingyan.

Lu Nian and Yi Luo had already channeled their inner strength into their palms, waiting for the scarred man to approach so they could kill him with a single blow.

Before the scarred man could get close, Xuan Ye stepped in front of Jiang Qingyan. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Isn't it me you want? Release this young master, and I'll go back with you willingly."

The scarred man narrowed his eyes, glancing unwillingly at Jiang Qingyan behind Xuan Ye. Having already seen her face today, he wasn't afraid of not being able to find her again. If Xuan Ye was willing to use his bedroom secrets to serve him, wouldn't that be incredibly enjoyable?

Scarface had already made up his mind, then turned his gaze to Xuan Ye, "Are you really willing to come with me?"

Xuan Ye turned his head slightly to look at Jiang Qingyan, and gently shook his head at her, as if to comfort her and tell her not to worry. Then he turned to the scarred man and said firmly, "Release this young master first, and I will keep my word."
