Chapter 621: Treating the Emperor as a Eunuch
Shen Zhinian picked up the teacup and took a sip, hiding the smile on his lips.
The harem is like a battlefield, so she naturally hopes that her allies will be more powerful.
Although Xuepin and she are not allies, they are more on her side after all.
Besides...Xuepin's father, General Yuchi, is stationed in Licheng and has a large army. From a long-term perspective, for Ah Xu's sake, he should also befriend Xuepin.
The emperor recalled many things he had heard recently.
Ever since Concubine Xian and Concubine Liang started working together to manage the six palaces, all the trivial matters in the harem have been managed better.
The disputes among the concubines in the palace were much less than before.
Most importantly, neither the virtuous concubine nor the good concubine was as jealous as Liu. They never targeted the favored concubines, but instead showed more concern for them.
With fewer disputes in the harem, Nangong Xuanyu had more time and energy to deal with the political affairs of the previous dynasty.
No wonder all emperors hope to have a virtuous queen to manage the harem and assist them.
Nangong Xuanyu also heard that since Xianfei took charge of the cold palace, she has issued many orders. Even the abandoned concubines in the cold palace can live a life without worries about food and clothing.
Nian Nian’s nature is really kind.
The emperor embraced Shen Zhinian in his arms and asked gently, "Nian Nian only thinks about Concubine Xue, doesn't she think about herself?"
Of course Shen Zhinian knew what he was referring to.
She is also looking forward to it.
However, she couldn't act too anxious about being promoted to a noble concubine!
Shen Zhinian leaned on Nangong Xuanyu's shoulder and said calmly, "Since Your Majesty said to let me wait, I will certainly believe you."
"I know that Your Majesty is an emperor, and your words are as good as gold. You will definitely do what you say."
"So, why should I be so anxious?"
If other people knew that there was an opportunity to be promoted to imperial concubine, they would definitely be eager to do so.
But since he expressed this intention last time, she never mentioned it again, not even in an indirect way.
It can be seen that in Nian Nian's heart, she really does not care much about fame and status.
What she values most is his sincerity.
The emperor's heart warmed, and he hugged Shen Zhinian tighter, saying softly, "Don't worry, it won't be long."
"After the palace examination at the latest, I will make you my only concubine!"
Shen Zhinian silently calculated the time in his mind.
The Spring Examination of the Great Zhou Dynasty is divided into three days, held on the 9th, 12th and 15th of February, and has now begun.
One month after the Spring Examination, there will be the Palace Examination.
In other words, Nangong Xuanyu asked her to wait another month.
Shen Zhinian has waited for such a long time, so a month is certainly not a big deal.
She nodded and said "hmm" gently: "Nian Nian will listen to Yu Lang."
Nangong Xuanyu lowered his head slightly, just enough to see Shen Zhinian's delicate face, her long and curled eyelashes like small fans, and her natural red lips.
His eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but kiss her. The soft touch made people fall into it unconsciously...
It was just a light kiss at first, but the emperor fell into it. He held her in his arms with one hand and supported the back of her head with the other, deepening the kiss.
As their breaths intertwined, hot air was sprayed, and the atmosphere in the inner room gradually became ambiguous...
The emperor picked up Shen Zhinian, walked inside, and gently placed her on the bed.
The hot kiss also moved from her lips to her slender neck.
Shen Zhinian is a normal woman, so she naturally has a normal reaction.
The emperor had a handsome face like a banished immortal, a strong body, eight very obvious abdominal muscles, and he knew how to please her.
She did not resist and even enjoyed it.
only……
"His Majesty……"
Shen Zhinian's charming eyes were filled with tears. When she looked at Nangong Xuanyu, the corners of her eyes turned red: "The wound on my arm has not healed yet..."
The emperor had been carefully placing Shen Zhinian's injured arm aside, and did not stop when he heard this: "Don't worry, I won't touch your wound."
In the fish tank by the window, one of the fish took the red fruit in front of it into its mouth and tasted it carefully...
Shen Zhinian exclaimed softly, and with her uninjured arm, she placed the fingers of her uninjured arm on the back of the emperor's head and threaded them into his hair.
Two fish swam happily in the fish tank, splashing water from time to time. Not far away, the bed curtains swayed and made a swaying sound...
After an hour, all the movements slowly stopped.
The emperor held Shen Zhinian, who was limp in his arms, and walked towards the bathroom.
The palace maid had already filled the bathtub with hot water of suitable temperature.
Nangong Xuanyu lifted up Shen Zhinian's injured hand before putting her body into the hot water. Then, he followed in.
Since the injury, Shen Zhinian had been served by Handan and Fuqiu every time she bathed. Nangong Xuanyu was also here today, which was obviously inappropriate.
She soaked in the comfortable hot water, opened her eyes and looked at Nangong Xuanyu opposite her, and asked slowly: "I am not suitable to sleep with you now, Your Majesty insists on making trouble... What should I do now?"
This woman asked this question seriously, but her eyes were ambiguous and she was clearly trying to seduce him.
If he couldn't control himself, she would probably tease him again later.
The emperor's eyes deepened, and he didn't fall for Shen Zhinian's trick. He just pinched her waist.
"No problem, I am happy to serve you."
Who in the world dares to let the emperor help him bathe?
Shen Zhinian, however, had no psychological burden at all. He turned around, placed his arms on the edge of the barrel, rested his chin on it, and closed his eyes comfortably: "Then I'll trouble you, Your Majesty."
Looking at the handkerchief in his hand, Nangong Xuanyu: "..."
When she first entered the palace, Nian Nian was so nervous that she even couldn't speak to him.
Now you feel at ease and treat him like a eunuch?
He found that this woman was becoming more and more courageous.
But what can Nangong Xuanyu do?
It’s all because of him that Nian Nian has become what she is now.
And... Having seen many women trembling in fear in front of him, Nangong Xuanyu really likes the way he gets along with Shen Zhinian.
In fact... the more she bossed him around, the more he felt secretly happy...
It was as if they were not an emperor and his virtuous concubine, but just an ordinary couple.
Nangong Xuanyu shook his head, dipped a towel in hot water, and gently wiped Shen Zhinian's smooth back.
However...it was just a handkerchief at first, but later it turned into his big hand.
after that……
Shen Zhinian held the edge of the tub with his arms, listening to the sound of water swaying beside his ears. His brows uncontrollably frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, you are not trustworthy..."
His big hands with distinct joints were pinching her slender waist, and there was a hint of lust in his black eyes.
"I didn't promise anything to Nian Nian when I was bathing, so how can you say I'm not trustworthy?"
Shen Zhinian: "..."
