She became a god

Despite Princess Huaining's warm invitation, Ye Qingzhou went to the princess's residence.

It must be said that Huaining truly deserves to be the emperor's most beloved princess; her residence is magnificent and opulent.

The room where Ye Qingzhou lived had a painting of ladies wearing flowers in their hair hanging on the wall, created by Wu Sanshui, a master of the current dynasty.

The lotus flowers embroidered on the screen are vibrant, and the lotus leaf patterns are clearly visible, demonstrating the exquisite weaving technique.

The display shelf is filled with various antique items, among which the porcelain lamps and Yuhuchun vases are particularly charming, making one want to pick them up and play with them.

The zither table, made from Guo Gong bricks, allows the sound of the zither to resonate within the bricks when a few strings are plucked, enhancing its antique elegance.

Guo Gong bricks are hollow bricks, specially made by the official kilns of this dynasty, exclusively for the royal family and nobles.

Nevertheless, this table is two feet eight inches high, can hold three zithers, and is about a foot longer than Qin, so it must have cost a lot of bricks and stones.

Perhaps considering that the original owner was a renowned and talented woman, the room was also equipped with a mahogany drum-shaped stool and a lacquered square table, so that the original owner could write when inspiration struck.

The large pearwood bed was covered with a brocade quilt, and a pair of crystal pillows adorned with peony flowers made it look especially radiant.

Princess Huaining really values ​​the original owner of this body too much, doesn't she?

As Ye Qingzhou was marveling to herself, two maids came to invite her to take a bath.

One person ladled hot water for her, while another massaged her, and they would also ask her in a soft voice how she felt.

wow!

Is this what aristocratic life is like?

luxury!

What a luxury!

The point is!

She enjoyed this service without paying any money.

The sky is wonderful!

Princess Huaining's methods of treating scholars with respect and courtesy are truly remarkable!

Ye Qingzhou is determined to live off this woman!

After taking a bath, Ye Qingzhou put on the moon-white nightgown prepared by the maid.

This dress fits well and is soft; its only drawback is that it's a little too light and thin.

But it is indeed more comfortable to sleep at night if you wear less clothing.

Ye Qingzhou dismissed the maids, gently blew on the lamp, and intended to turn it off and rest.

But then someone laughed and said, "You go to bed early."

The person who arrived was Princess Huaining.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" Ye Qingzhou greeted with a smile, after all, Huai Ning was now his biggest benefactor.

The world may be vast, but nothing is bigger than our sugar daddy!

Huaining seemed to be in a good mood, and reached out to pinch Ye Qingzhou's cheek. "Does it not hurt anymore?"

"Huh?" Ye Qingzhou was stunned for a moment before remembering the tiny wound that the person in front of him had poked. It seemed to have healed automatically after only a little blood seeped out.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, is it all better now?"

"You've been rejecting me all this time, have you thought about how you're going to make it up to me?"

Okay! There's no such thing as a free lunch!

It's normal for Huaining to have ulterior motives in saving her, so what does the original owner, or rather the current Ye Qingzhou, have that she can use to her advantage?

After quickly reviewing his thoughts, Ye Qingzhou tentatively replied, "I am deeply grateful for Your Highness's favor. From this day forward, I will be loyal to Your Highness alone, obey Your Highness's commands, and strive for Your Highness's great cause."

A universal sales script template is always reliable; it doesn't aim for great achievements, but rather for avoiding mistakes.

Whether it was Ye Qingzhou's imagination or not, after she said those words, Huai Ning not only didn't seem happy, but her cold face actually became a little sour.

The low air pressure made Ye Qingzhou somewhat panicked; when you're under someone's roof, you have no choice but to keep your head down.

How dare a lowly criminal offend the first in line to the throne of the Great Yan?

Ye Qingzhou quickly admitted defeat, "Your Majesty, I am foolish and beg for your guidance."

"Explicitly suggest?" Huai Ning sneered. "Would you be willing if I explicitly suggested it?"

"nature."

Ye Qingzhou answered decisively, "Isn't it just work KPIs?"

If you can't finish it, just procrastinate!

If all else fails, just fake your death!

"May I ask, fairy, would you be willing to share my bed tonight?"

This line?

That sounds familiar!

And this nickname, Xian'er, is a bit too intimate!

None of that matters. What matters is that she's been clinging to this powerful figure for half a day and now she has ulterior motives towards him.

Should we obey her or defy her?

Ye Qingzhou had no doubt that if she dared to say no, Huaining would most likely send her back to the prison immediately.

The night is long, and the fog is about to rise; a single layer of clothing is not enough to keep out the cold.

Ye Qingzhou didn't want to die!

Ye Qingzhou wanted to live a comfortable life!

But if she agreed, would she really offer herself to the person in front of her, not to mention that she was focused on cultivating Taoism and had no interest in love?

Even if she wasn't the real Narcissus, and even if she possessed Narcissus's body, she shouldn't have used it for a transaction.

Ye Qingzhou chose to feign compliance, a blush rising on her fair face, her bright eyes filled with surprise and confusion. "Your Highness, please don't tease me."

"Xian'er, I truly love you."

Huai Ning smiled bitterly, "Seven years ago, at the Qionglin Banquet, I fell in love with you at first sight. Later, you taught me and the other imperial heirs, and I saw you standing before me every day. I was both happy and anxious, but I dared not let you know even a little bit about it."

After I turned fifteen and came of age, I finally established my own household and invited you to several gatherings, wanting to express my feelings to you, but you always declined.

He never showed any courtesy when they met, always maintaining a distant demeanor, which often saddened the young master.

"Your Highness..." Ye Qingzhou frowned slightly, "This humble subject is guilty, guilty of causing Your Highness distress. Please forgive me."

After saying this, Ye Qingzhou was about to gracefully bow.

Huaining couldn't bear to part with him, so she immediately embraced the waist of the man she had been longing for. "I don't blame you. I only blame the unpredictability of life, which made us miss each other for so many years."

"Logically speaking, for a subject like myself awaiting punishment, to have gained Your Highness's favor is an immense stroke of luck, but..."

At this point, Ye Qingzhou's bright eyes welled up with tears, as if she were about to sob, and she glanced cautiously at Huai Ning, seemingly hesitant to continue.

Seeing this, Huaining knew that what she was about to say probably wouldn't please him, but he couldn't bear to see his beloved suffer, so he nodded anyway.

Ye Qingzhou then continued, "Your Highness and I are both women. Even if we enjoy ourselves for a while, it will not last. If Your Highness's reputation is damaged, I would rather die ten thousand times than atone for my crime."

After saying this, Ye Qingzhou had two streams of tears on her beautiful face, her nose was red, she covered her heart with her hands, and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Huaining lovingly reached out to wipe away her tears. "Xian'er, please bear with this for a while. Once I ascend to a high position like my grandmother, who in the world will dare to stop me?"

Ye Qingzhou really wanted to say, "Your grandmother was ousted by your father after only three years in office."

But these are words that are not suitable for Narcissus to say.

Ye Qingzhou could only feign a heartbroken and exhausted appearance, "Your Highness, everything that happened tonight was too rushed, and I am finding it difficult to adapt for the time being. Please forgive me."

Although he hadn't been able to fully possess the person he had cherished in his heart for many years, he knew that her many concerns were not a sign of rejection, and Huaining didn't want to push her too hard.

The beauty is so close, and she can't escape.

Huaining made another request, "Xian'er, please don't call me Your Highness when we're alone anymore. It's too formal."

"Then how should I address you?"

"I am Qi Zhanying of the Qi imperial family, my name comes from the poem 'I only suspect the Xiang River is so clear and blue, Ying'e rode a whale away and never returned, the distant peaks of autumn are bound by the colors of a thousand years.' What would you like to call me?"

Ye Qingzhou feigned shyness and, under Huai Ning's expectant gaze, softly uttered, "Aying."

Although the words were so faint as to be almost inaudible, they were enough to make Huai Ning overjoyed.

Only after the person in her arms had fallen into a deep sleep did Huaining tiptoe away.

Little did she know that after she left, the person on the bed quietly opened their eyes again.
