Chapter 51: Betrayal
Shen Qingyan has been practicing dance for several days, and every day he comes back exhausted, so tired that his whole body is sore, and after basically taking a bath in a hurry, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep in a daze. Therefore, the husband and wife ceremony between Yin Qi and Shen Qingyan has not been completed until now.
Shen Qingyan is not a heartless person, he naturally understands that since he and Yin Qi are married, they should complete the ceremony of husband and wife, this is their responsibility and obligation, because of his psychological barriers, Yin Qi has been accommodating himself, but now, since his heart disease has been cured, he should not delay what should have been done long ago, so on this day, even if Shen Qingyan was so tired that he collapsed on the chair and didn't want to move, he still carefully cleaned himself several times from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside. With some nervousness, he sat on the edge of the couch and waited for Yin Qi.
"Whew." Shen Qingyan exhaled a long breath, trying hard to suppress his heart that was about to jump out of his throat, and his palms were already slightly sweaty. Shen Qingyan pinched her eyebrows helplessly, although her psychological barrier had been cured, she had always resisted this matter. In the previous life, although Yin Yuan had a couple ceremony with her a few times, even if it was only the only few times, they were all very rude and did not take into account their own feelings, so Shen Qingyan was still very young and never thought that there was any wonderful feeling in this matter. Besides, the person who wants to do this with her now is Yin Qi, the person who put himself in his heart, and that kind of nervousness and shyness made Shen Qingyan even more restless.
Just when Shen Qingyan wanted to retreat, Yin Qi, who had finished handling business, pushed the door in, and in order to plan the dinner with the vassal kingdom in the past few days, Yin Qi often rested very late, which was also very hard.
"Why haven't you slept yet?" Yin Qi saw Shen Qingyan sitting on the bed, a little funny, and a little puzzled, on weekdays Shen Qingyan was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed, and he went back to the bedroom later these days, and when he came in, Shen Qingyan had already slept on the bed, and saliva flowed out.
"I ...... I'm waiting for you. Shen Qingyan lowered his head a little shyly, not daring to look up at Yin Qi, lowering his eyes, his hands kept rubbing the corners of his clothes, and he swallowed his saliva nervously.
"......" Yin Qi looked at Shen Qingyan's abnormal appearance, and instantly understood what Shen Qingyan meant, smiled secretly, sat down next to Shen Qingyan, and held her hand.
Shen Qingyan felt the sudden temperature on the back of his hand, and subconsciously trembled, and the already congested ear roots turned even redder.
"That ......" Yin Qi suddenly put his lips to Shen Qingyan's ear. Exhaled, and his voice was low, "Isn't it, whatever I want you to do?" ”
Shen Qingyan's neck was covered with goosebumps because of the heat exhaled by Yin Qi, and he didn't understand what Yin Qi meant at all, so he nodded subconsciously, and when he understood, he wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, Yin Qi would not do anything that would hurt her, so he mustered up his courage and looked straight at Yin Qi's eyes that had become dark, and looked at him trustingly: "Yes." ”
Yin Qi didn't expect Shen Qingyan to answer this question so seriously, when he saw the trust in Shen Qingyan's eyes, his heart seemed to pause, and his chest was full of emotion and joy.
"Okay." Yin Qi pressed Shen Qingyan down on the bed, his Adam's apple moved due to the swallowing of saliva, and his eyes turned a little red due to congestion, "I want you to ......"
Shen Qingyan's breathing was also a little short due to nervousness, but he stretched out his arms to hug Yin Qi's neck, looked at Yin Qi seriously, and waited for Yin Qi's next words.
"Sleep well." Yin Qi suddenly bent the corners of his mouth, lightly branded a kiss on Shen Qingyan's forehead, and lay down quietly beside Shen Qingyan, hugged Shen Qingyan's waist with one hand, and closed his eyes with a smile.
Shen Qingyan turned his head to look at Yin Qi with his eyes closed, his eyes were still full of surprise, he couldn't believe it, Yin Qi let himself go like this, he really just slept well. After thinking about it, he actually doubted himself, could it be that he couldn't attract him, how could he say that he was also the first beauty in Mucheng, could it be that he lost his attraction to Yin Qi so quickly.
"Hey." Shen Qingyan stretched out a finger and poked Yin Qi's stomach, "Are you sure?" ”
"Hmm." Yin Qi just responded lightly.
"Hey." Shen Qingyan poked Yin Qi again, "The duck that reached the beak flew." ”
"Got it, duck." Yin Qi still responded lightly.
"Hey!" Shen Qingyan stretched out two fingers and pinched Yin Qi vigorously, "Is the old lady so unattractive!" ”
"When will I become your son?" Yin Qi finally opened his eyes with a smile and pinched Shen Qingyan's cheek.
Shen turned around angrily, turned his back to Yin Qi, and stopped looking at him.
"Fool." Yin Qi leaned over a few times and hugged Shen Qingyan into his arms, "You take a closer look at what changes I have." ”
Shen Qingyan frowned when he heard this, and just wanted to turn around, but suddenly felt an obstacle behind him and froze in place.
"Now, do you still feel unattractive?" Yin Qi gritted his teeth and pinched Shen Qingyan's face.
"Then you ......" Shen Qingyan turned around and looked up at Yin Qi.
"You've been too tired lately, you can't." Yin Qi smiled and kissed Shen Qingyan's lips.
"......" Shen Qingyan was speechless for a while, looked at Yin Qi quietly, suddenly smiled, and suddenly stretched out his arms around Yin Qi's waist, rubbing his head against Yin Qi's chest, "I won't let you wait for a long time." ”
Yin Qi's movements froze, and he retreated from Shen's dishonest head with a smile.
"You did it on purpose, I warn you, don't have any physical contact with me tonight."
Shen Qingyan wrinkled his nose at Yin Qi when he heard this, retreated a little distance, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.
Yin Qi kept watching Shen Qingyan fall asleep, and after Shen Qingyan fell asleep, he stretched out his hand and gently traced Shen Qingyan's face, looking at Shen Qingyan who was a little tired even when he fell asleep, and felt a little distressed. Finally stretched out his hand and gently hugged Shen Qingyan, who was already asleep, into his arms, and slowly fell asleep.
In the Hehuan Palace, Concubine Meng rubbed her forehead a little tiredly, leaning on the couch, only with a thin long skirt, and her long ink-colored hair was scattered, which reflected her snow-white skin.
"Niangniang, let's use some ejiao soup." Hongyu took the green porcelain bowl in her hand, took the spoon and slowly stirred the ejiao soup in the bowl, scooped out a spoonful, blew it, and sent it into the mouth of Concubine Meng.
Concubine Meng swallowed the ejiao soup and sighed tiredly, her face a little pale.
"Niangniang, the doctor has said, you can't work like this anymore, otherwise the dragon fetus will be lost." Hongyu frowned, very worried, Concubine Meng had already fallen the root of this woman's illness because of her dancing practice, and she was finally pregnant with a dragon fetus, and she was so tired, not to mention the dragon fetus. Even her own body may not be able to survive.
"Ugh." Concubine Meng sighed again, "Why doesn't this palace want to take care of the fetus, but the holy decree is difficult to disobey." ”
"Niangniang, if you really can't do it, just tell the emperor about being pregnant." Hongyu looked at Concubine Meng earnestly.
"No way!" However, Concubine Meng objected very fiercely, "As long as you tell the emperor, you will be immediately told to the world, once Concubine Li knows, the children in this palace will have no way to live." ”
"However, even if Niangniang doesn't say it, this belly is getting bigger day by day, how can she hide it from others, and besides, the emperor has not come to Niangniang here because he is busy with dinner in the past few days, and once Niangniang sleeps, the matter will be discovered immediately." Hongyu frowned, and bitterly advised Concubine Meng.
"From tomorrow, you will take a girdle to tightly surround the belly of the palace, so that at least the time to be found can be prolonged, the emperor is there, you help the palace to report, because of the practice of dancing, the palace is not in good health, and it is not suitable to sleep." Concubine Meng thought for a moment and immediately instructed Hongyu to make preparations.
"Niangniang, if you tell the emperor the truth, the emperor will protect Niangniang and the dragon fetus. Ruby still doesn't give up. ”
"Huh." Concubine Meng sneered, "You think that cowardly person can protect Bengong, he just cares about himself, and now he covets Bengong for a while, so everything depends on Bengong, if it really involves his interests, Bengong is the first person he gives up." ”
Hongyu heard that Concubine Meng had said something so desperate, and she didn't say anything anymore, but turned around and walked out of Concubine Meng's bedroom to prepare to corset her waist.
The night was getting deeper, and Concubine Meng had fallen asleep. Hongyu walked out of the Hehuan Hall lightly, looked around, saw that there was no one around, and tiptoed to the magnificent palace, on which the plaque was clearly dangling with three big gold lacquer characters - Chuxiu Palace.
"Here we are." Concubine Li leaned on the couch and looked faintly at Hongyu who was hanging her head in front of her, "Concubine Meng, has there been any movement recently?" ”
Hongyu swallowed nervously, frowned fiercely, pinched the corners of her clothes with both hands, as if she was experiencing a huge struggle, countless pictures flashed in her mind, and the appearance of Concubine Meng's dance with her, the appearance of Concubine Meng's transfer of her to the Hehuan Palace, and the appearance of Concubine Meng's holding her hand and laughing with her, this scene made Hongyu's tears flow incommittedly.
"It's really a master-servant relationship." Concubine Li sneered and exclaimed, not looking at Hongyu, but looking at her Kodan carefully, "Then when you think of your sick parents, will you still protect your master like this?" ”
Hongyu heard Li Guifei mention her parents, raised her head suddenly, and glared at Li Guifei who threatened her, but she didn't have any strength to fight against her, she was just an ant-like existence in her eyes.
Finally, Ruby closed her eyes weakly, released her clenched fist, and spoke in a low voice.
She ...... Pregnant. ”
Concubine Li was looking at her Kou Dan very lazily, but when she heard the word 'pregnant', she suddenly paused, and her sharp gaze instantly shot at Hongyu.
"How long?"
"It's been more than three months." Hongyu seemed to have given up, lowered her eyes, and whatever Concubine Li asked, she answered.
"Then why doesn't the emperor know?" Concubine Li was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that once she finds out that she is pregnant, the emperor will immediately announce it to the world.
"Concubine Meng has been hiding it from the report, saying that she is afraid that the fetus will not be protected."
"Huh." Concubine Li sneered and raised her eyebrows, "Okay, this palace knows, you can step down." ”
