Chapter 1: Minister of Miao Affairs (I)

"Yanhong, has the snow outside stopped?" Zhu Yinglong took off his gloves, rubbed his dry eyes, and asked tiredly at Yanhong, who was wearing snow-white fox fur.

"Stop, Master, it's so late, it's time for you to rest."

Looking at Yanhong's heartbroken eyes, looking at Zhu Yinglong's heart warm, it was still this kind of sweet person who knew he loved people.

"Okay, Xu Yingyuan, you guys go down and rest too!" Zhu Yinglong followed Yanhong's words and turned to the eunuch Xu Yingyuan standing beside him.

"Slaves, please leave!" Xu Yingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was smart and moved Concubine Yu over, otherwise he would have to stand for another night today.

"Oh, I have forgotten. I am going to your Jingyang Palace tonight, right?" Zhu Yinglong slapped his forehead and thought.

Yanhong's face changed slightly, and she quickly defended: "I don't mean this, I just..." People's words are terrifying, especially in this deep red wall. Yanhong is afraid that others will say that she is close to the water tower for her sake. You must know that Zhu Yinglong has not been to the harem for several days, and even Li Qing, who lives in Yangxin Hall, did not ask her to sleep.

"You are just timid, afraid of this and that. You are too cautious. With me here, what if I go to your Jingyang Palace for the night today?" Zhu Yinglong pulled Yanhong's cold little hands and said to him.

"I am not timid, but I am more careful when I see you too much." Yanhong said with her true words.

Zhu Yinglong closed his eyes and leaned against the cushion and said slowly: "I sometimes regret it. Why are you doing this emperor? You are so tired and have to deal with a group of ministers with different hearts. How good do you think it is to be a happy prince of Xiaoyao?"

Yanhong said silently. She understood some truths, but she couldn't say them out. She still said: "I came from the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine said that she didn't have enough milk and wanted to hire a nurse for Huang'er."

"She has made up her own ideas on this matter, there is no need to ask me for instructions!" Zhu Yinglong relaxed his shoulders and said.

"The Imperial Concubine said that Shi Kefa's wife Zihe gave him a daughter, and she had a lot of milk. I heard that Shi Kefa had to suck her wife every night. What the Imperial Concubine meant..." Yanhong said half of the sentence and left half of the sentence, secretly looking at Zhu Yinglong's face, blushing and not talking.

Zhu Yinglong suddenly opened his eyes, stood up straight, and smiled and leaned back and forth. The third-ranked Shuntian prefecture actually sucked his wife's breasts. It was nothing. The fun in the boudoir has nothing to do with others, but since he didn't know how to keep it secret, he knew it in the palace. The situation outside was imagined, and he said, "Yanhong, if you don't say it, I forgot about this matter. Shi Kefaxi's daughter, I haven't sent a gift yet!"

"What kind of gift does the emperor want to give?"

"I think about it." Zhu Yinglong lowered his head and thought about it hard. After a while, he gave up, but he still couldn't help but smile and said, "Forget it, let's leave this matter to Shulan."

"Then't you hire a nurse for Wanger?"

"Just this Zihe, he is a trustworthy person." Zhu Yinglong made a decision.

All the eunuchs and palace maids left, and only Zhu Yinglong and Yanhong were left in the empty hall. It felt quiet. Yanhong nodded tightly against Zhu Yinglong's abdomen, resting her head on Zhu Yinglong's strong thighs, and slowly closing her pair of moving eyes comfortably.

"Yanhong, I haven't been to see my sister for a while. Can you accompany me, okay?" Zhu Yinglong suddenly remembered Queen Yi'an Zhang Yan, who had not recovered from illness. Her illness was caused entirely by herself. Can Zhu Yinglong feel guilty?

"Do you want to call Sister Li Qing?" Yanhong opened her eyes, straightened her body, and asked at Zhu Yinglong. Li Qing was one year older than Yanhong, and Yanhong naturally called Li Qing "sister".

Zhu Yinglong thought for a while and said, "Okay, I just don't know if she has gone to bed. It's so late, I really can't bear to wake her up."

"Then I'll go and have a look first?" Yanhong stood up and said.

"No, I'll go with you!" Zhu Yinglong stood up and said.

Yanhong took a purple marten fur and put it on Zhu Yinglong. The two of them left the Nan Study Room of the Yangxin Hall and went straight to Li Qing's dormitory.

A trace of yellow light shone through the gap between the window and into the cold air outside.

"Your Majesty, it seems that Sister Li Qing has not rested yet?" Yanhong said in Zhu Yinglong's ear in a low voice.

"Then let's call her together!" Zhu Yinglong said with his right hand tightly on Master Yanhong's left hand. This is the most common way to hold hands between couples in later generations. Fortunately, Yanhong has become accustomed to it. When she first held hands like this, Yanhong was nervous and sweat was oozing out of her palm. She was ashamed and happy as she felt sweet.

The door of the dormitory was counter-stopped, and Zhu Yinglong pushed it but couldn't open it, so he knocked on the door and said, "Li Qing, it's me, you open the door."

Li Qing was looking at the medical books in her hand. Although her eyes were facing the words on the pages, her mind seemed to be no longer there. Zhu Yinglong's knocking sound suddenly woke Li Qing who was wandering around. She was so shocked that she looked around blankly until she heard the second knocking sound that she realized that it was a knocking sound, but she didn't hear what Zhu Yinglong said just now. She thought in her heart, when is it now, why would anyone come to find her? So she got up and opened the door.

"Emperor!" Li Qing opened the door and saw a face that she could never imagine. She exclaimed, and a blush suddenly rose on her face. It was so late, the emperor came over, wouldn't he be with her? Thinking of the ecstasy feeling that night, Li Qing suddenly felt the face was hot, shyly lowered her head, and quietly took a step back, and made a way to get out of the way into the house. Due to the dark light and the darkness of her mind, she was all focused on Zhu Yinglong, and she did not see the bright red standing beside Zhu Yinglong at all.

"Qing'er, I won't go in. Put on a velvet fur and go to Shou'an Palace with me to visit your sister Zhang Yan." Zhu Yinglong also knew that he had come late at night, so he must have misunderstood Li Qing, so he hurriedly said.

Li Qing responded disappointedly and walked in, but Zhu Yinglong's "Qing'er" suddenly felt a hint of sweetness in his heart. After a moment, Li Qing put on a green satin fur and opened the door. She saw the bright red beside Zhu Yinglong and the ten fingers that were closely connected. She suddenly felt dim. It turned out that she was not the one who accompanied her.

Zhu Yinglong had long seen Li Qing's mentality as a child. He hurriedly stretched out his left hand, quietly grabbed her right hand, and also tightened her fingers, then sent a gentle look to indicate that he would not be more favorable to the other. Li Qing's cheeks flushed, and her heart was as sweet as honey, and she lowered her head embarrassedly.

"Let's go. After visiting my sister, I want you to sleep together tonight." Zhu Yinglong grabbed the two girls tightly and whispered in the ears of them.

After hearing this, the two women were very embarrassed and exclaimed, especially Li Qing, who blushed and could bleeding. How did they expect that the dignified Lord of Nine Five would make such a ridiculous request? And they didn't even object. Did they have that tendency? Li Qing couldn't imagine it!
