The Emperor, with more men than women, made me his mistress.

At this moment, Shaoqi's piece gradually came to an end, the music stopped, and everyone came back to their senses from the beautiful music, and began to praise Shaoqi's excellent piano skills.

This made Shao Qi a little embarrassed, as his only skill, besides his beloved medical skills, was his zither playing.

After listening to Shao Qi's music, even Xin Ran and Yin tide Yue's husbands felt a little itchy to play, and they all went to the zither table and took turns playing a piece.

As each piece was played, everyone's piano skills were unique and impressive. Yue Li and the other listeners were thoroughly satisfied, as if they had attended a grand concert.

After the last person finished playing, everyone sat together and chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, even Xinran and Yin Xiyue said their goodbyes.

"Then be careful on your way," Yue Li said as she saw the two off.

"It's alright, they're here." Lian Xinran smiled and waved her hand, pointing to her two husbands behind her.

"Yes, Yue Li, don't worry, it's alright. The security in Kyoto is very good," Yin Xiyue said with a gentle smile.

"Yes, Yue Li doesn't know yet, but Ruan Yu from Xi Yue's family is the head of the patrol guards, specifically responsible for the security of the capital. What could possibly make anyone uneasy?" As she spoke, she winked at Yue Li.

Ruan Yu, a direct descendant of the Ruan family, a second-rate aristocratic family, lived up to his name. Not only was he outstanding in appearance, but he also had an extraordinary temperament. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a gentle and refined gentleman.

However, contrary to his temperament, he chose the path of a military general.

Back then, Ruan Yu was someone many noble ladies wanted to take into their household.

However, in the end, she was taken in by the gentle-natured Yin Xiyue.

Yue Li winked at her and said deliberately, "Oh, I see. I'm relieved!"

The two of them teased Yin Xiyue until she blushed. "You two, huh! I'm ignoring you. It's too late, I'm going home."

With that, Yin Xiyue turned and walked forward. Her two husbands and the others bid farewell and immediately followed her.

Seeing Yin Xiyue like this, Lian Xinran winked at Yue Li and said with a smile, "See? I've angered Xiyue. I need to go and coax her quickly."

"Okay, you should go ahead," Yue Li said with a smile.

Yue Li didn't think Yin Xiyue was really angry, since they were just making harmless jokes with each other.

"Then Yue Li, don't forget our promise to come to Marriage Lake tomorrow afternoon. Tonight we played on the flower boat at your Prince Chen's mansion, so come play on our flower boat tomorrow." Lian Xinran reminded Yue Li of their agreement before leaving.

"Ok."

Since we're all just having fun, why not go somewhere else to have fun?

Watching Lian Xinran wave her hand and quickly catch up with Yin Xiyue, who had already walked far ahead, after she agreed, Yue Li smiled and turned back to the deck of the flower boat with Jin Chenyuan.

Shao Qi and Jin Moyu remained seated at the round table on the deck.

Looking at Jin Moyu, who didn't seem inclined to leave immediately, Yue Li said, "Since arriving on the ship, I haven't had a proper chance to explore its layout. Shao Qi, would you like to come along? And what about Prince Jin? Would you like to come with us?"

Since all three of them had gone, it wouldn't be right to leave Jin Moyu here alone to drink tea, so Yue Li politely invited him to join her.

“Great! This is my first time on Prince Chen’s pleasure boat too. I’ll take this opportunity to have a good look around.” Jin Moyu didn’t seem to think that he was just being dragged along, and readily accepted Yue Li’s invitation.

Yue Li: ……

"Okay, let's go."

So Yue Li walked ahead, leading the three of them on a thorough tour of the flower boat from top to bottom.

On the third deck of the ship, Yue Li saw several well-arranged rooms. She enthusiastically chose one she liked, planning to decorate it when she had time and stay there for a few days. It seemed like a very nice place.

When the group returned to the inn, it was already 9 PM.

After bidding farewell to Shao Qi and Jin Moyu at the entrance of the inn, Yue Li and Jin Chenyuan boarded the carriage that was placed inside the inn.

As soon as she got into the carriage, Yue Li collapsed onto the low couch.

Jin Chenyuan sat down next to Yue Li. Seeing her like this, he naturally massaged her shoulders with both hands and asked, "Are you tired?"

"No, I was still very happy tonight."

"Really? Who are you so happy to see?" Jin Chenyuan asked in a low voice, his tone even carrying a hint of danger.

He still hasn't forgotten Yue Li's behavior when she saw Shao Qi at the inn, or how she would steal glances at Jin Moyu on the boat.

Is it because we saw Shao Qi again?

I finally met Jin Moyu, who was not only good-looking but also much younger.

At this moment, Jin Chenyuan experienced a feeling called inferiority, a feeling he had never experienced since birth.

After all, Yue Li is still young, while he is already 32 years old this year.

If someone his age got married early, his children might already be as old as Yue Li.

Thinking that Shao Qi and Jin Moyu were about the same age as Yue Li, a sour feeling welled up inside her.

Although he knew in his heart that Yue Li would not belong to him alone in the future, he still couldn't stop his heart from overflowing with jealousy.

"It's great to see everyone here! I met so many new people today."

Yue Li was oblivious to Jin Chenyuan's strange behavior, and continued to enjoy the massage from him with her alluring fox-like eyes narrowed.

As soon as his thin lips touched her small, fair earlobe, a tingling sensation instantly spread from her earlobe throughout her body. Yue Li shuddered and almost sat up abruptly.

But at that moment, without her knowledge, she was already trapped in Jin Chenyuan's arms, and Jin Chenyuan had encircled her within his territory.

Noticing Yue Li's reaction, Jin Chenyuan went even further and began to gently bite and rub the rounded earlobe with his teeth.

"Don't……"

The tingling and itchy sensation from her earlobes made Yue Li start pushing against Jin Chenyuan's chest.

Upon noticing Yue Li's rejection, Jin Chenyuan immediately misunderstood and simply pressed half of his body against her, his eyes dark as he said, "What's wrong? Does A-Li not want me to touch her at all?"

"Weren't you fine just now? What are you doing now? Besides, we're in a carriage." Moreover, her ears were being tickled unbearably by Jin Chenyuan.

Sensing Yue Li's displeasure, Jin Chenyuan turned his head to look at Yue Li's expression. He saw that Yue Li's expression did not seem fake, as if she did not care about Jin Moyu, whom she had met today, as he had imagined.

But still feeling uneasy, he tentatively asked, "Then, Ah Li, I want to kiss you now."

However, at this moment, Yue Li's left ear was itchy, so she had no time to care about Jin Chenyuan's feelings.

Unable to reach her right hand while it was pinned down, Yue Li subconsciously tilted her head and rubbed her ear against the soft cushion of the low couch beneath her.
