Soon after returning to Qiongyu Palace, Zhenliang was "forced" by several girls to drink a large bowl of ginger soup, and then was forced to lie down on the bed while she was awake.
The euphemistic name is - recuperating from illness.
In fact, she just had a stuffy nose and frequent sneezing symptoms. She didn't have fever or headache. But in the eyes of several girls, it was already a big deal and there was no need to delay it at all.
Originally, Tongye was going to ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look, but under Zhenliang's intimidation, no one dared to ask the imperial doctor on his own initiative. Several girls discussed in private that if Zhenliang's condition became serious before going to bed,
It shouldn't be too late to ask the imperial doctor.
However, in full view of everyone, the imperial doctor came uninvited.
Tong Ye said with surprise on his face, "Mr. Li, how did you know that our empress was sick?"
Doctor Li smiled slightly and said, "It's the emperor's order."
When everyone suddenly realized this, they all lamented that the emperor got the news so quickly. Who knew who was so rude that he spread the news that the empress was sick?
No one knew that the Emperor was still present on the carriage that Ryo was returning to the palace this time, because Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf, who were accompanying them out of the palace, were arranged on another carriage. When they got off the carriage, the Emperor was already at a certain location.
We got off the bus at the right place, and Zhenliang didn't say anything specifically, so no one would notice anything unusual.
After checking Zhenliang's pulse, Dr. Li said that she just had a common cold, prescribed a dose of medicine, and left accompanied by Jin Ye.
While waiting for Jin Ye to get the potion back, Zhenliang lay on the bed and counted with his fingers. There were only three nights left before the ten days specified by Nangong Lie.
She had a cold today, so of course it was inconvenient for her to go to bed. If the cold was transmitted to him, she would be guilty of a big crime, as Nangong Lie must have known.
Zhenliang thought that her cold could not be cured in two or three days. Therefore, she could not take the initiative to tell him the date of her bedtime. When he couldn't wait any longer or got angry, she came to her in person. Then she felt confident.
Di used the excuse that the wind and cold had not recovered, and postponed the time further. He believed that for the sake of her extenuating circumstances, he would not really stage any overlord's attack.
Although she already had a wishful thinking in her mind, Zhenliang still spent two days in fear, fearing that Nangong Lie would take the initiative to ask her if she had planned a day to sleep with her. Even when she used Feng Han as a shield, he said that there was no way
Damn words that I don’t mind or fear.
On the last day, Zhenliang learned from Ginye that in fact, since the day she left the palace, the emperor, who had not turned over his cards for a long time, had started to be exposed to rain and dew again, and it was still the rule of darkness and blindness.
Zhenliang felt that she was making a fuss and worrying in vain. Maybe Nangong Lie's ten-day deadline for giving her was just an angry talk and she didn't take it to heart at all.
In the past few days, he indulged himself in other women's beds every night, eating her marrow and understanding her taste. I'm afraid he had long forgotten her existence. How could he remember the ten-day period?
When making this determination, Zhenliang automatically ignored the fact that Nangong Lie personally came to pick her up from the palace that day.
Although Zhenliang felt faintly uncomfortable, she felt relaxed and took it for granted that Nangong Lie should have forgotten what happened in the ten days.
As long as tonight is over, nothing will matter.
In the evening, Zhenliang and four girls were walking outside the Qiongyu Palace. Eunuch Jiao came towards her and said, "Concubine Liang, the emperor asked the old slave to come and send a message, saying that if Concubine Liang has anything to do with the emperor, you can go with the old slave."
See him. Concubine Liang, do you have anything to see the emperor?"
Zhenliang's heart suddenly froze, and she secretly sighed that it was terrible. Could it be that Nangong Lie suddenly remembered the ten-day period? So she asked Eunuch Jiao to remind her in this way and give her the last chance to actively ask to sleep with her?
Regardless of whether it was true or not, after hesitating for a moment, Zhenliang shook his head firmly and said, "Thank you Eunuch Jiao, I have nothing to do with the emperor."
Receiving the surprised glances cast by the four girls, Zhenliang's eyes were deep. She knew that in this situation, even if nothing happened, most women would create conditions to say that something was wrong. However, she rejected Eunuch Jiao for the first time.
In other words, you rejected the emperor and did not give him any dignity at all.
She believed that once she followed Eunuch Jiao to see Nangong Lie, even if Nangong Lie didn't want to see her for the ten-day period, he would think of the ten-day period because of seeing her. Therefore, as long as she went to see Nangong Lie,
There should be no way to escape tonight's bedtime.
Before entering the palace this time, she was no longer afraid of sleeping in bed, but when she heard about Nangong Lie's exposure to rain and dew from Yin Ye, she felt as sick as if she had swallowed a lot of flies.
She kept asking herself, so what if he was the emperor, what if he was handsome, how could she do that kind of thing with such a dirty man?
Eunuch Jiao nodded with a normal expression and left without any objection.
However, when Zhenliang and his party had just returned to Qiongyu Palace, Eunuch Jiao appeared again, panting.
"His Majesty Liang Fei, tonight... Tonight the emperor has turned over your cards. Please prepare your Majesty Liang Fei and go to bed according to the old rules."
For a moment, I was really confused and stupid.
It seems that Nangong Lie must have thought of the ten-day period, or because she refused to see him, which offended him, he was ready to fulfill the ten-day period as usual on the last day.
Yinye pushed Zhenliang, and when she saw that she had no reaction, she quickly thanked Eunuch Jiao and said, "Your Majesty, I will definitely be ready. Please don't worry, Eunuch Jiao."
Eunuch Jiao had already left, and Zhenliang was forcefully dragged to the bedroom by Yinye and others.
Then, Ginye drove away several other girls and stayed in the palace with Zhenliang.
Before Yinye could speak, Zhenliang said firmly, "Yinye, I know what you want to say. Tonight, I will come to serve you in person, and you don't need to stand in for me."
Yinye didn't expect Zhenliang to be so decisive, so he asked, "Your Majesty, don't make a decision so quickly. Let me ask you first, did you decide to sleep with the Emperor because you fell in love with the Emperor?"
To Yinye, Zhenliang didn't want to lie, so he said truthfully, "Of course it's not because I like you, Yinye. Over the past few days, I'm afraid you have also felt that the emperor is uncertain and is not an easy man to deal with at all. He wants to be in vain all at once.
After a while, he was allowed to light a lamp to help him sleep. As the saying goes, you can hide from the first day of the lunar month, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day. Firstly, I don't want to embarrass you anymore, and secondly, he is already somewhat familiar with me, and I am afraid that he will suddenly recognize me.
It turns out that we are not the same person at all."
Yin Ye knelt down with a puff and said, "My Lady, no matter what, please give Yin Ye another chance to serve as a substitute."
