A Dream of Red Mansions: A Fairy Tale of Dreams (Complete) - 26

Chapter 55 The Three Meetings of the Royal Princess (4)

Fortunately, Xichun only asked casually about it and did not pursue the matter further. The Fourth Sister, who was only concerned about the ethereal immortal path, dimmed her eyes and said sullenly, "Senior Sister, how come my magic power is so much worse than yours? You can easily defeat the evil spirits, but I am much worse than her!"
"Don't be discouraged. You have not been cultivating for long, and my magic power was improved through special means!" Seeing that Xichun was still frowning, Keqing, who was very close to her sister, blurted out in a moment of anxiety, "Fourth Sister, don't worry. As long as Baoyu, that lazy master, is willing to help you, you will become a top master overnight!"
"Ah!" A surprised murmur came out of her mouth. Xichun was so happy when talking about Brother Bao and the matter of immortal magic. "Senior Sister, is it true? How can Brother Bao have such incredible magic power?! Then why didn't he turn me into a master sooner?!"
"This..." Ke Qing immediately regretted her words. The powerful ghost immortal had been following her lazy master for some time, and having previously harbored ulterior motives towards him, she knew him intimately. The beautiful and intelligent woman had already discerned eight or nine parts of the truth from the changes in the auras of Feng Jie and the others. It seemed that only that shameful method could transform Xi Chun into an immortal!
"Good senior sister, just tell me! You're driving me crazy!" The girlish nature of Xi Chun even made the usually aloof Xi Chun speak in a coquettish tone, shaking her ghost senior sister's jade hand with pitiful eyes. Her rapidly changing expression was reminiscent of her elder sister Yuan Chun's ever-changing charm!
Ke Qing, unable to resist the pressure, had no choice but to steel her heart and muster all her courage, saying, "Good sister, it's not that I don't want to tell you, I only know that Bao Yu does indeed have this ability. As for the specific method, I... don't quite understand. You can ask Bao Yu yourself when he returns!" *
Sigh!* The stunningly beautiful fairy exhaled a long breath, secretly comforting herself with a sense of relief: "I'm not deceiving Fourth Miss, nor am I trying to cause trouble for Baoyu. Anyway, that wicked master might not have had good intentions when he gave Xichun the jade belt. Aren't all the women in the manor with jade belts his women?! Xichun isn't now, but she definitely won't be in the future!"
Ah! Thinking of this, Keqing exclaimed in surprise. She herself was also wearing a celestial treasure around her waist. Could it be that she had already considered herself his woman in her heart?! Ah... How embarrassing!
A faint joy flickered and wandered among the blushing clouds, making the stunningly beautiful woman, who was lost in thought, even more elegant and otherworldly!
"Eldest Aunt, Second Aunt!" The sky had just emerged from the darkness, and the Empress and Princess had not yet finished their breakfast when the excited Crown Princess rushed into the Phoenix Palace.
"Sigh! Here we go again!" A sigh, half helpless and half delighted, escaped the cold beauty's lips. It seemed yesterday's merriment had indeed brightened her mood.
Before Princess Fengying could even utter her sigh, the little princess's call reached their ears. "Royal sister-in-law, royal sister-in-law, let's play cards!"
While the two beauties waited anxiously, the two great beauties hastily finished their breakfast, and another unique card game began!
"Hehe... I lost!" Tianyi lost the game but played happily, and before her nemesis could even utter a word of teasing, she preemptively downed her cup of wine!
The little girl was so forthright that the Queen and Princess, true to their word, had no choice but to play their cards diligently to avoid getting drunk again!
The joyful game made the fine wine and the beautiful women shine. It was a pity there were no heroes present to wield their swords and add to the fun; a slight regret lingered amidst the beauty!
The lingering awkwardness of yesterday had vanished without a trace, and the four women naturally swallowed their wine. Everything subtly changed with each passing second!
Although the Empress and Princess Consort were focused and attentive, under the seemingly hostile but actually conspiratorial antics of Tianyi and Li Zhi, the two beauties were already tipsy by the end of the game, their spirits soaring in a hazy state!
"Hehe... Sister-in-law, you... lost again!" The little princess herself was already somewhat drunk, and Tianyi, who was having a great time, laughed and said, "Looks like your card skills are terrible. Do you want Xiaobaozi to teach you?!"
"Yes, Second Aunt, why don't you come back to the Princess's residence with us and learn from Xiaobaozi!" Li Zhi also joined her nemesis in fanning the flames!
Although the Empress didn't kick her while she was down, the cold beauty's eyes, slightly drunk, were also filled with a playful glint.
She stared meaningfully at her sister, waiting to see how she would respond.
"No, no... no need!" Princess Fengying, pressured by the three women's drunken ramblings, panicked and her beautiful face changed drastically. Shocked and embarrassed, she shook her hands like a rattle drum, finally deceiving herself, "I like seeing Xiao Baozi. You don't need to be so kind! As for my card skills, I'll play them well!"
"Hehe..." The unrestrained laughter of Tianyi and Li Zhi, along with the Empress's subtle teasing, filled the room. The originally simple joy subtly shifted after the mention of the little eunuch!
The game came to an end, and after seeing off the two maids, the Empress and her sister, both slightly drunk, collapsed onto their phoenix beds!
"Hehe..." In her drowsy state, the Empress couldn't help but laugh as she recalled her sister's amusing expression. As she murmured to herself, the image of the little eunuch involuntarily surfaced in her mind, "Xiao Baozi! Heh, heh... interesting Xiao Baozi!"
When Tianyi and Li Zhi returned to Tianyi Palace, they were not greeted by their expectant lovers, but by Tianyi's rosy-cheeked face, radiant with spring-like allure!
"You little brat!" Li Zhi immediately understood what the two women had "suffered." She had been busy for him, yet he was at home fooling around. Thinking of this, the Crown Princess couldn't help but raise her voice in a coquettish tone, "Little brat, get out here!"
"Your Highness, Little Brat has gone out of the palace. He won't be back for two or three days!" With the little princess backing them up, Tian Chang and Di Jiu weren't too afraid. Besides, the Crown Princess wasn't petty. The two maids, blushing slightly, gave a graceful bow and added, "He said there was an urgent matter outside the palace, so he had to leave!"
"Hmm! Then let's rest for a while. I'm sleepy too!" Tian Yi didn't mind Little Brat's "cheating" at all; after all, she had pushed her best friend into bed! Exhausted from playing cards and under the influence of alcohol, the little princess and her nemesis lazily walked into the bedroom, subconsciously conserving their energy for tomorrow's battle!
"Second Master, these are Master She's recent whereabouts." Inside the Red Mansion, Bao Yong presented the secret letter with a solemn expression, then added with a hint of worry, "That Zhongshan wolf didn't attack immediately as we expected. We wonder what other treacherous scheme he has up his sleeve!"
Second Master Bao carefully read the letter, then casually placed it on the table. After a moment of deep thought, he calmly asked, "Why did the envoy of the West Gate garrison come to the capital?" "
It seems to be the annual trip to the capital to meet the Emperor on behalf of the garrison commander!" Bao Yong felt ashamed of his uncertainty; despite his best efforts, he couldn't uncover the truth!
"How's the Red Mansion cigarette business going?" Bao Yu changed the subject, asking about trivial matters. After some casual conversation, Bao Yong left, full of questions. Lost in thought, Second Master Bao, filled with passion, dashed into the inner courtyard, a haven of tenderness!
A spring breeze blew, and threads of affection danced!
After several passionate encounters, all the women, exhausted from their ordeal, fell into a peaceful sleep. Yuan Chun, having endured the harsh realities of the palace, forcefully pulled her mischievous younger brother into a charming, secluded garden.
"Brother, are you troubled by the affair between Zhao and Sun?" True to her reputation as a woman of many faces, one moment she was alluring and captivating, the next she was ethereal and graceful, her tall figure radiating wisdom, blending perfectly with the natural beauty.
Bao Yu, realizing his inner turmoil hadn't escaped his sister's notice, quickly asked, not entirely chauvinistic, "Sister, I don't know if it's because my magic hasn't fully recovered, but I can't see through Zhao Quan's intentions! Alas!"
"Silly brother, what's the point of life if you see through everything?!" Yuan Chun, overflowing with tenderness, held her beloved brother's hand tightly as they strolled among the flowers and trees, displaying the gentle, submissive demeanor of a loving wife.
The ever-changing beauty's delicate side indeed ignited Bao Yu's fighting spirit; for his beloved sister, for the lovers who had pledged their hearts to him, he was determined to muster his ambition. He would not give his opponents the slightest chance to harm him!
"Brother, you are no ordinary person. How could you be ordinary when you were born with a divine jade in your mouth?!" Yuan Chun, with her national beauty and graceful bearing, quietly walked into the flower bushes. In a flash, she transformed into a wise and mysterious master, her long and solemn celestial voice echoing among the flowers, "The mortal world is a game. Sometimes you need to follow the rules, and sometimes you need to break the rules! Who says the strong must play by the rules of the weak?!"
"Boom!" A flash of lightning illuminated Bao Yu's mind like a spark of inspiration, blasting a clear path through his dead end. Suddenly realizing what was happening, he rushed forward and embraced Yuan Chun, his voice trembling with excitement, "Sister, I understand!"
A deep sigh welled up from his heart, and Bao Yu sighed with emotion, "I've been too rigid and passive! Sigh. Enough playing, we've played long enough!"
"Bao Yu, get these trivial matters sorted out quickly. There's no need to waste time playing with a petty person like Zhao Quan!" Yuan Chun gently stroked her younger brother's face with her jade-like hand. Her voice held a hint of reproach, "You're having so much fun playing like this, but if something happens to any of the sisters in the family, you'll regret it!"
"Sister, I'll listen to you!" Bao Yu's hand tightened again, and the two siblings, their hearts intertwined, stood motionless amidst the fragrant blossoms, their deep affection rising again in the warm current of love!
The resonance between hearts doesn't need storms or earth-shattering events; even the most ordinary moments of life can touch the heartstrings and create the most beautiful melody!
"Greetings, Young Master!" Although Baoyu had said it countless times, the twelve actresses still refused to change their address, only involuntarily calling out their beloved's name when they were talking nonsense in bed.
"Lingguan, is it your turn to be on duty today?" Accompanied by Fangguan and Wenguan, the Second Master Baoyu arrived at the courtyard where the strange spy Fu Qiufang was being held captive.
"Yes, Young Master, it is this servant who is on duty!" Lingguan, bowing her head in response, was cautious and meticulous in her speech, only a barely perceptible glint of mockery flashed in her slightly closed eyes!
"Alas!" The girl who was sighing and groaning was indeed feeling very uncomfortable, and involuntarily rolled her eyes several times, then said helplessly, "Please, I was wrong back then, okay?!"
"Young Master is our great benefactor, Young Master would never be wrong!" The "obedient" Lingguan did not change her serious and beautiful face at all, which made Fangguan and Wenguan on the side almost burst out laughing.
"Alright, I'm going in first! Are Qingbian and Sister Lan still inside?" Before Lingguan could reply, Bao Erye had already rushed into the room as if fleeing a disaster. His once dashing figure was now quite disheveled.
Women really shouldn't be offended! Wasn't it because he lost control and did *that* to them all in the first place? Sigh! Now they all deliberately make fun of him whenever they see him. Fortunately, he's gentle enough at night! Hehe…
"Giggle, giggle…" Wenguan and Fangguan couldn't help but burst into laughter. Fangguan's voice trembled with laughter as she said, "Third Sister, you… are really amazing!"
"Hmph!" The fiery Lingguan finally regained her composure and said resentfully, "Who told this bad guy to plan to bring you all into the Grand View Garden, but leave me here!"
"Third Sister, let's switch," the most composed Wenguan said nonchalantly, "Anyway, half of us sisters will leave and half will stay. It's the same wherever we are!
" "Forget it!" " That rascal is right! My temperament is better off staying here and being free. I don't want to be a servant in the Jia family and suffer mistreatment!" Lingguan could no longer hide the fire of love in her eyes. It seemed she did understand Baoyu's good intentions!
"Giggle, giggle..." Silvery laughter echoed in the room. Before even lifting the curtain, Baoyu heard Qingbian's cheerful and bright voice, "Fang-meimei, tomorrow I'll take you out for a stroll. Don't stay cooped up in your room all day. Fangguan and the others are just putting on an act. They won't really make things difficult for you!"
Sigh! Is this still considered house arrest?! It turns out these maids have already secretly become best friends with the enemy's spies! Thinking of this, Baoyu gave a bitter smile, then stretched out his hand and pulled away the last obstacle in his way!
"Qiufang-meimei, this is a new dress I embroidered for you. Try it on and see if it fits!" "As soon as Master Bao entered the room, he saw Sister Lan holding up new clothes to the spy.
"Ahem!" A slightly annoyed cough broke the cheerful atmosphere. The three women instinctively flinched. Master Bao, determined to act decisively, said softly but solemnly to his two lovers, "Wenwen, Sister Lan, you two go out for a while. I have something to ask Miss Fu!"
The gentle and obedient sister-in-law glanced at Fu Qiufang with worry in her eyes, but still immediately got up and went to the door. Qingwen, however, was not so obedient. Long-term interaction had already established a deep friendship between her and Fu Qiufang; now, seeing the murderous aura hidden in her lover's expression, the fiery-tempered girl took the initiative and said coquettishly, "You naughty Baoyu, why did you suddenly scare me like that?! What do you want to do to Sister Fang? Don't be rough, she hasn't really done anything bad!" "
Ugh... How did I end up being the bad guy?!" Feeling deeply wronged, Bao Yu glanced at the calm Fu Qiufang, the female spy not only unafraid but also displaying a hint of defiance in her bright eyes.
Damn it! Bao Yu's anger flared up instantly. However, he forced himself to suppress it and said to Qingwen, "Wenwen, I just have something to ask her, I won't hurt Miss Fu!"
"Sister Qingwen, you don't need to help me. I doubt this coward would dare do anything to me!" Before Qingwen could respond, the usually taciturn spy spoke up, her words laced with arrogance, challenging Bao Yu's patience and magnanimity.
Hmph—Bao Yu wasn't one to swallow his pride and suffer in silence. This was intolerable! Damn it! A mere little brat, a woman who was his enemy, dared to be so disrespectful to him!
"Hmph!" A cold snort escaped his lips, and without another word, Bao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, emitting two captivating beams of light that locked onto Fu Qiufang's irresistible mind. After a moment of stunned silence, followed by a moment of blankness, Bao Yu's "soul-capturing eyes" displayed their divine power as he said in a deep voice, "Tell me, how much do you know about Zhao Quan and Sun Shaozu's secrets!"
"No!" A clear, anxious cry of dissatisfaction rang out. Qingwen rushed to her lover's side, her expression shifting to a charming and affectionate tone, "Husband, dear Bao Yu, don't do this! You'll hurt her!"
"My darling, she'll be fine. She'll recover after a few days of rest!" Bao Yu sighed helplessly, "I'm doing something important, don't be silly!"
"Husband, I'm not being silly!" Qingwen persisted, her usually cheerful demeanor now tinged with a rare allure, her charm irresistible. "You're so capable, you must have other methods, right?" "And Qiu Fang isn't a bad person, she's quite pitiful, being tossed around like merchandise by her brother all day!"
"Yes, Bao Yu, please let her go, don't bully such a poor woman!" Unexpectedly, even the noblewoman intervened at this crucial moment. Who says honest people can't speak? This beautiful young woman's words drove her lover to the brink!
"Hmm..." Bao Yu, both amused and exasperated, felt an endless sense of helplessness, realizing he had suddenly become a bully harassing a weak woman!
With a thought, two beams of magical light, seemingly possessing sentience, flew back from the spy's eyes, disappearing directly into Bao Yu's own.
"Ah! You... what did you do to me?" At this moment, Fu Qiu Fang finally snapped out of her daze. The helpless girl instinctively looked herself up and down, her panic evident. "What did I do?! I did everything, so what?!" "His lofty ambitions were all ruined by the unreasonable nagging of Qingwen and the other two women. Frustrated, Bao Erye couldn't help but roll his eyes repeatedly and angrily sneered at the hateful female spy!"
"Fang-meimei, don't listen to his nonsense!" Qingwen betrayed her lover once again. With a sweet smile and a flirtatious glance, the tall, graceful girl flashed to Fu Qiufang's side, lowering her voice to say, "Good sister, don't worry, with me here, he wouldn't dare do anything to you!"
Alas! It seems Qingwen is too bored being alone in this villa; she's even mistaken an enemy for a friend! Bao-er-ye couldn't help but feel unusually guilty for his laziness. Why hadn't he sent Qiuwen and Sheyue to the villa sooner?! That way, my darling Wenwen wouldn't be acting so recklessly!
“Miss Fu, since Wenwen wants to help you, then I, this young master, will ask you this seriously once,” Bao Yu’s helpless expression was completely dispelled by his firm and resolute words, his deep and solemn voice resounding, “I guarantee with my integrity that as long as you cooperate with me, I will not only guarantee your safety, but also the safety of your Fu family. I wonder if you are willing to cooperate?!”
Every word of Bao Yu’s was like a heavy hammer blow. Fu Qiufang, whose heart was trembling violently, saw an irresistible power and determination in his eyes, and the girl’s carefree spirit had to retreat in the face of it!
“Fang-meimei, just say yes!” No matter what, Qingwen would always side with her lover. The clever girl comforted her gently, “Good sister, just trust Baoyu. He always keeps his word! Even if you don’t trust him, you can trust your sister, right?”
“Sigh! Alright!” With the combined efforts of Baoyu and Qingwen, one firm and one soft, Fu Qiufang’s defenses finally crumbled. The girl said with a hint of defeat and desolation, “Second Master Bao, ask away, but I don’t know much about the inside story!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to secretly escort your family out of the capital tomorrow!” Baoyu’s solemn words put Fu Qiufang’s last bit of anxiety at ease. Then she sighed, “Do you know if Zhao Quan has a secret residence in the capital? I urgently need to find his whereabouts!”
Baoyu’s body leaned back in his chair with the helplessness in his voice. If he hadn’t been so exhausted, why would he have gone to such lengths? What bad luck!
Baoyu's anxious expression was clearly reflected in the eyes of the three women in the room. Qingwen had never seen her beloved husband so serious, and only then did she realize that something serious had really happened. The beautiful spy, unexpectedly, did not gloat. Her mind was slightly shaken, and a strange thought made her rack her brains to search through her thousands of memories.
"I've had all the mansions under Zhao Quan's name searched, even the Imperial Guards, but I haven't found a trace of him!" Master Bao frankly revealed the situation, his voice gentle and sincere. "Zhao Quan is a treacherous and ambitious man. The Fu family, following him, will one day face utter destruction. Please, Miss Fu, tell me this for the sake of your family and Wenwen!"
"Master Bao," after some thought, Fu Qiufang said uncertainly, "Two years ago, my brother mentioned that Zhao Quan seemed to have bought a house in the southern part of the city in his name, but I'm not sure if he's there!"
"Thank you, Miss Fu. Could I trouble you again?" Bao Yu stood up and bowed sincerely. "Whether or not we find Zhao Quan, I will immediately escort you and your family out of the capital."
"Thank you, Master Bao!" Fu Qiufang gracefully rose and returned the bow, but her expression showed little excitement.
Chapter 56 The Three Meetings of the Royal Women (5)
Despite the turmoil outside the palace, the games inside were still in full swing. The four royal women, full of enthusiasm, were all unconsciously drawn into the novelty, and even the original instigators, Tianyi and Lizhi, were no exception.
"Hehe... I won again!" Tianyi cheered for his victory. The game had developed from daytime to nighttime. After dinner, the four women's war was even more unrestrained under the cover of night.
Human nature is so strange. The same thing can evoke very different feelings in the daytime and at night.
As the intoxication gradually increased, the rich aroma of wine permeated the space where the four women were. After another victory, the little princess was even more arrogant. She looked at Lizhi and said, "How about it? I said you are no match for me, so you are no match for me!"
"You..." Lizhi, who was drunk, had been defeated repeatedly today. Faced with reality, the girl had no choice but to bow her head and admit defeat.
"Heh, heh..." The voluptuous princess, her face like a peach blossom, had a hazy, shimmering gaze. Emboldened by the wine, the beautiful young woman laughed playfully, "At least I didn't lose the most today!"
"Yes! My luck's pretty good today too!" Compared to her usual cold and aloof self, she was much better, but even so, her exquisitely sculpted face had changed from a pear blossom white to a crimson plum blossom!
"You...you're all bullying me!" Eight-tenths drunk, Li Zhi pouted, greatly displeased with the three women's teasing. Then, filled with shame and anger, she said, "Hmph! You underestimated me! Let's bet bigger! Not only does the loser have to drink a cup of wine, but they also have to take off a piece of clothing! Dare you?"
"Ah!" The dignified princess nearly overturned her wine cup, and the slightly drunken empress's elegant demeanor was thrown into disarray!
Before the two beauties could respond, the playful little princess, already defiant, declared, "Come on then! I'm on a winning streak today, I'll make sure you strip naked!"
If it weren't for the cover of night, the subtle intoxication, the irrepressible urgency, and all the other possibilities... all these "ifs" would have become the four women's reasons to defy convention. What seemed illogical in ordinary times naturally unfolded amidst the two beauties' half-serious, half-joking banter.
"Alright!" Under the same tactic of the two girls, the two beauties glanced instinctively at the empty room around them, then, their hearts pounding with excitement, shyly nodded in agreement! Their
initially relaxed mood was now tense due to the unusual stakes. Whether it was the two beauties' exceptional luck or a result of fate and Li Zhi's mutual strife, the final result was that the two girls lost everything, while the two incredibly nervous beauties only managed to remove their outer garments!
"Hehe..." The wine and the thrill of victory allowed the Empress to completely relax. When Tianyi appeared naked before her, the Empress, slightly uncomfortable, hid the blush on her jade-like face with a loud, silvery laugh and stopped the game as agreed beforehand!
"Hmph! What bad luck! I'll definitely win it back tomorrow!" Tianyi and Li Zhi threw down their cards and started scrambling for their clothes scattered on the ground. Seeing the two naked women in such a flustered state, the Princess and Empress laughed in unison, a hint of schadenfreude creeping into their hearts!
"Auntie, Second Auntie, I'm going back!" Li Zhi, having dressed first, declared defiantly, "Let's continue tomorrow!"
"I'm going back to the palace too! Sister-in-law, Empress, I'll get my revenge on you tomorrow!" Tianyi dropped the bombshell. Ignoring the two women's stunned and hesitant expressions, she rushed after Li Zhi!
"Sister, what should we do? Do we really have to play along with their nonsense?" The Princess, in high spirits, showed little concern, casually tossing the problem to her elder sister.
"Sigh! Will they agree if we say we're not playing anymore?" "Perhaps her good fortune today boosted the Empress's confidence. The cold, beautiful woman, still immersed in the joyful atmosphere, changed her mind and said dismissively, 'Let's talk about it when they arrive tomorrow. Let's see what new tricks those two girls can pull!'"
"Murderers and arsonists are rewarded with gold, while those who build bridges and pave roads leave no trace!" Shi Yu murmured the inscription on the plaque of the Southern City, a place shrouded in chaos. Standing there, he couldn't help but recall the days when he, without supernatural powers, and Miao Yu had dealt with the ruffians together. Now, Miao Yu had returned to the mountain and was nowhere to be found, while by her side was a beautiful but cunning spy with a complicated background!
The chaos and filth of the Southern City hadn't changed much; the "evil" side of human nature was on full display. Witnessing this scene, Shi Yu couldn't help but deeply understand human nature. Although he had subdued all the ruffians in the capital in a short time, the new "reinforcements" were multiplying uncontrollably!
Even with his extraordinary magical powers, he could only be helpless! Wherever there are people, there will inevitably be chaos and conflict. How could one person fight against the world?!
"Boom!" After Shi Yu knocked down a group of petty thieves who were robbing people on the way for the tenth time, he and Fu Qiufang finally had peace. Fu Qiufang's eyes sparkled with excitement, and her steps, following the strong man's upright figure, became steady and grounded. Was a sense of security really that important to a woman?!
"Sir, why did we hide here?!" Zhao Da, who was used to enjoying life, was also a guard. The strong-willed guy had no patience for hardship. The simplicity of the South City made him very uncomfortable because he couldn't indulge in debauchery!
"Slap!" A loud slap answered the incompetent Zhao Da. If Zhao Quan, whose eyes were flashing with black light, hadn't been mindful of their kinship and loyalty to him, he probably would have crushed Zhao Da long ago. "Idiot, what time is it and you're still thinking about indulging in debauchery?!"
"Hurry up and go patrol! By the way, how many brothers have entered the city now?" Zhao Quan called out to Zhao Da, who dared not utter a single complaint.
"About ten thousand," Zhao Da's excitement was uncontrollable, the grievance of his earlier beating completely gone. He subconsciously asked in a low voice, "My lord, when do we make our move? Let me taste what it's like to be a member of the imperial family! Heh, heh..."
"Ha, ha..." Zhao Quan didn't blame Zhao Da for his treasonous words at all. The equally excited man laughed wildly, "Soon! I won't treat you badly then! Go down and make sure the brothers are well-behaved and hidden. Don't cause any trouble!"
"Heh, heh..." Zhao Quan's smug laughter echoed in the room for a long time. He really had reason to be proud. How many people in the world could plant a surprise force under the emperor's nose without anyone noticing?! In just over ten days, when all the soldiers were disguised and entered the city, that 20,000-strong army would be enough to reverse the balance of power in the capital. With the Embroidered Uniform Guard under his complete control, if nothing unexpected happened, they could also bring down the four major families. Then their Shenji Battalion and City Guards will be thrown into chaos. At that time, using the Crown Prince's name to launch a coup, who in the court and the country can stop Zhao Quan's might?!
There are always variables in the world, and no one can fathom the will of Heaven! The cunning Zhao Quan painstakingly transformed the South City into the best cover. This plan, which took years to complete, was absolutely perfect! Unfortunately, perfection can only exist within the realm of mortals. Facing the transcendent Second Master, who no longer wanted to play the game, failure was the only fate for this unfortunate hero, Zhao Quan!
"Report!" A secret agent from the Embroidered Uniform Guard reported from outside the door, "Sir. Shi Yu and Fu Qiufang have appeared in the South City, and their destination seems to be this way!"
Huh, why would Shi Yu be heading this way?! Zhao Quan's face was full of doubt as his thoughts shifted. Anger rose cautiously in his eyes. Although somewhat reluctant, he still displayed his ruthless nature, "Kill! Kill all suspicious individuals without mercy!"
He paused slightly, then the cruel Zhao Quan thought of Fu Qiufang again. The address of his secret residence must have been revealed by Fu Shi. To be on the safe side, he had to destroy this obedient but foolish dog. "Execute Fu Shi's
entire family in secret!" "Ah!" A scream made Zhao Quan, inside the room, instinctively stand up. He paused only for a moment before turning and running towards the hidden door without hesitation, feigning a retreat when things went wrong—he was a steadfast believer in the principle of self-preservation, but unfortunately, all his cunning was no match for overwhelming magical power!
"Hold on, Commander Zhao, I'd like to get intimate with you!" Amidst the surging light, Shi Yu and Fu Qiufang, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, suddenly appeared out of thin air.
"You dog!" Fu Qiufang, having clearly heard Zhao Quan's order, and completely believing Bao Yu's assessment of Zhao Quan's character, was consumed by rage. Pointing her jade-like hand directly at Zhao Quan's face, she fiercely rebuked him: "What a ruthless and vicious dog!"
Zhao Quan, true to his ruthless nature, remained calm in this critical moment, unmoved by the woman's rebuke, not even glancing at Fu Qiufang. Zhao Quan glared fiercely at Shi Yu and said, "Who exactly are you? You're definitely not an ordinary businessman! Impressive, I admire you!"
Although his words were unclear, Shi Yu was a shrewd man, and he understood the true meaning behind Zhao Quan's words without much thought. "Likewise, likewise! Lord Zhao is no less impressive!"
His tone abruptly shifted, the friendly smile turning cold as he added, "Also, I advise Lord Zhao not to step on any traps; they're useless!"
Zhao Quan's expression changed, then returned to a cheerful one, "Brother Shi is indeed a master. May I ask one more question? As for being granted a high position, being surrounded by beauties, could you perhaps discuss these with me?"
"Lord Zhao, it's a pity we're natural enemies!" Shi Yu genuinely admired Zhao Quan's composure, shaking his head and sighing, "Today..."
"Hiss!" Before Shi Yu could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred. The cunning Zhao Quan instantly transformed into a ferocious wolf, black mist swirling beneath his feet, and a three-foot-long green sword appeared out of thin air in his hand, tearing through the void with magical light!
"Huh!" Caught off guard, Shi Yu was greatly surprised. He hadn't expected Zhao Quan to possess such supernatural abilities. Although insignificant to him, it was far superior to the former demonized monster Zhou Bapi!
"Ah!" A hint of joy flickered in Zhao Quan's eyes as he launched his surprise attack. His target—Fu Qiufang—was now within reach, with nowhere to escape!
What a cunning old fox Zhao Quan! He deduced from Shi Yu's entrance that the opponent was definitely not someone he could handle, so he wisely chose the defenseless Fu Qiufang as his target. Once he had the hostage, he wouldn't have trouble finding a way out!
Unfortunately, Zhao Quan's wishful thinking didn't work out. The unexpected turn of events left him only to lament inwardly—he was doomed!
Shi Yu had indeed not anticipated such a cunning opponent, and Fu Qiufang was terrified and pale in the fierce wind. But everything changed in an instant!
In that instant, Fu Qiufang, who thought she was doomed, only saw a blur before her terrified body fell into a warm embrace, while Zhao Quan's vicious sword swept past the hem of her clothes!
The disparity in strength made the battle utterly unexciting. Although Zhao Quan's resistance was determined, even at the cost of mutual destruction, Shi Yu waved his hand, and a mysterious magical power bound his opponent's body like a net.
"Good, good..." The frantic Zhao Quan could hardly believe what he was seeing. His earth-shattering ambition turned into utter despair in an instant. His face was ashen as he muttered to himself, "Kill me! What's the use of resisting if fate has decreed my demise?!"
"I didn't expect you to have some backbone!" If his opponent had begged for mercy, Master Bao would have killed him without hesitation. Although he didn't kill him, he wasn't a soft-hearted fool. If you
don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring! It's best to eliminate anyone who poses a threat, or at least a threat to those around you, once and for all!
A thousand thoughts flashed through his mind, and in a flash, this extraordinary individual had already devised a brilliant plan. While Zhao Quan waited with a deathly expression, Shi Yu's eyes suddenly shone brightly. Fu Qiufang lightly tested her Soul-Capturing Eye, illuminating the space with unparalleled brilliance. "Lord Zhao, I won't kill you! However..."
His words, imbued with magical power, were deeply etched into Zhao Quan's mind. Finally, Shi Yu leisurely asked, "Do you understand?"
"Understood!" The wooden Zhao Quan, like a clay sculpture, was completely at his mercy, much to the girl's mixed joy and fear!
"Hmm!" With a flicker of light, Shi Yu reverted to his true form. He wrapped his arm around Fu Qiufang's waist, gently wiping away the primal fear in her heart. "Let's go, I'll take you home now!"
His voice still echoed in the room, but the figures of the man and woman had vanished, leaving only the wooden-faced Zhao Quan standing there.
"Huh, what just happened to me?" After a moment, Zhao Quan jolted awake as if from a dream, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't recall the scene from his "dream."
"Ha, ha..." A wild laugh echoed from inside the room. With Bao Er Ye's deliberate encouragement, the scheming Zhao Quan believed that the world was within his grasp!
Having successfully completed his mission, Baoyu welcomed the arrival of Xiren, Qiuwen, Sheyue, and Yuchuan at his villa in the Red Mansion, preparing for the show he had arranged. Except for Xiren, the other three girls stayed at the villa. The happiest of all was Qingwen, reunited with her sisters. Even Yuanchun, whose identity had been exposed before the women, shed her shyness and cheerfully accepted their greetings! The title of mistress of the villa naturally fell to Yuanchun, a win-win situation for everyone!
The other mistress of the Grand View Garden, Feng Er Nai Nai, was unhappy about being alone, but the arrival of the six great female entertainers, Fangguan, brought her joy again. Furthermore, the Liu family also moved into the Yihong Courtyard. Nothing dampened the liveliness and joy of the Grand View Garden!
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the summer evening breeze was cool and pleasant. After bidding farewell to her sister, the Princess Consort returned to her bedroom alone.
Hmm! Upon reaching the door, Princess Bei Jing's heart skipped a beat. An inexplicable impulse made her leisurely, graceful hands suddenly feel as heavy as a thousand pounds. Her wildly beating heart gave rise to an urgent urge to turn and flee!
Another surge of excited heat numbed her feet, and her beautiful body, defying her will, stood before the door. She didn't know how much time had passed—perhaps only a fleeting moment, perhaps millennia. Feeling as if she had lived countless lives, Princess Bei Jing's uncontrollable hands finally pushed open the door inch by inch!
"Squeak!" The subtle sound exploded like a thunderclap in the princess's heart, the strange sensations becoming intensely powerful. Overwhelmed by passion, the beautiful woman subconsciously closed her beautiful eyes, using this passive attitude to deal with the uncontrollable fire of love!
A tall, imposing figure was indeed bathed in the moonlight. The elegant Bao Yu gazed intently at the beautiful woman, his eyes burning with desire. Though separated by the door, he had seen every shift in the young woman's heart, feeling her inner turmoil and pain as if it were his own.
After a moment of suffocating silence, a heavy, sorrowful atmosphere filled the air. A large hand, aching with pain, slowly crept onto the princess's shoulder.
At the same time, the princess's complex eyes opened slightly, and two streams of bitter tears welled up. Her silent weeping revealed her profound sorrow, causing Bao Yu to tremble and his emotions to surge.
"Sister, don't be like this!" Baoyu gently wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, suppressing his surging emotions, and said in a deep voice, "Sister, don't worry anymore, your brother is here to solve this problem!"
"What?!" The extreme shock made the princess, whose eyes were red, forget her sorrow and asked in surprise, "How can it be solved? Can it be solved?"
In the heart of the plump young woman, it was almost unbelievable that this deeply tormenting "pain" could be resolved!
If she could give up this fateful love affair, she wouldn't be in so much pain; if she didn't give up this forbidden love that went against the world, the beautiful woman couldn't get past the hurdle of her years of respectful marriage with Prince Bei Jing!
Such a contradiction was no exaggeration to call it a battle between heaven and man, and it was also quite appropriate to call it an intractable knot! How could there be a third way to make such a difficult choice?!
"Sister, let's go find Brother Wang now and let him make the decision!" Baoyu's expression was firm, determined to cut through the Gordian knot quickly!
"No, no!" Although the princess was not a man, she understood the terrible power of male jealousy! The pain of either Baoyu or Prince Beijin being injured would be unbearable for her. The beauty couldn't believe that the usually shrewd Baoyu would come up with such a foolish idea. She shook her head repeatedly, her face filled with panic!
"Sister, I spoke too quickly. Please listen to me carefully!" Baoyu gently blamed himself for his rash words, tightly gripping the beauty's shoulders with both hands. In their eyes meeting, he conveyed his sincerity and determination to the princess.
“Sister, you know I possess magical powers,” Baoyu said, his face brightening after the beautiful woman nodded blankly. “I will never abandon you, but I absolutely do not want you to continue to be so heartbroken!” With
tears welling in the princess's beautiful eyes, Baoyu said softly, “The dynasty is about to descend into chaos, and Your Highness will have an opportunity to ascend the throne. I will use my divine powers to make him choose. If Your Highness chooses the throne, then please, sister, stay with me for life; if Your Highness's love for you reaches such a level, then I will certainly grant him this true love!”
“Hmm…” For the princess, either outcome was the same; love and duty remained a difficult choice.
"No, sister, don't rush!" Bao Er Ye quickly revealed the truth. "Sister, listen to me! Since that time we shared, you've been immortal! I'm willing to wait. I'll come back for you after the Prince passes away. I said I would never abandon you, it's all up to your decision, brother!"
His boundless magical power manifested its profound mystery. His tall figure and voluptuous body floated together amidst the colorful clouds, tearing through the void as the passionate couple
suddenly appeared in the Bei Jing Prince's mansion. The familiar plants and trees came to life in the Princess's eyes; the lifeless halls, pavilions, and flowers seemed to be searching the fragile heart of the thirty-year-old beauty with a thousand thorny gazes!
"Baoyu, I...I...don't want to go in!" At this crucial moment, years of traditional etiquette made Princess Bei Jing's heart pound with anxiety, and she hesitated to go back. "Let's...go back to the palace!"
"No!" Baoyu's firm hand stopped the princess's escape, and his resounding words once again gave her courage. "Sister, we can't drag this on any longer! Two people should be happy together. If it's painful, how can it be called love?!"
He paused slightly, and then Baoyu blurted out the last thought he had held back before. "If Your Highness is truly willing to give up the throne for you, then I will cast a spell to make you temporarily forget everything between us, until time will grant you your memory! No matter what, I want you to be happy!"
The moonlight, like water, quietly overlooked the earth. Midnight had passed and the night was deep. The faint candlelight flickered, illuminating the peaceful sleeping face of Prince Bei Jing on the bed.
A mysterious barrier instantly enveloped the small space. The Princess of Bei Jing, who was like a clay sculpture, unable to move or speak, witnessed a strange scene!
The sky was moving and the earth was spinning. As the incantation of Master Bao Er circulated, the magic power transformed into talismans that flickered in the void! The Princess felt a blur before her eyes, and the space she was in suddenly became a void. Of course, she did not know that her primordial spirit had been taken into the mental space of Prince Bei Jing by Master Bao Er!
Chapter 57 The Third Meeting of the Royal Princess (6)
"Ah!" A cry of surprise echoed in the vast world. The slightly bewildered Prince Bei Jing turned his surprised face around, feeling very shocked to find himself in such a scene!
This is a dream, this must be a dream! Seeing thousands of stars passing by him, the upright Prince Bei Jing made a certain judgment instantly!
"Yes, this is a dream, but it is not a dream!" A mysterious and long voice, powerful yet ethereal, seemed to see what Prince Bei Jing was thinking and directly communicated with him.
"Who?!" Prince Bei Jing instinctively trembled, then forced himself to regain his composure, gazing intently towards the source of the voice.
"I am the God of Destiny! The trajectory of fate has brought you here!" With these solemn words, the mysterious figure finally appeared—or rather, a dazzling humanoid radiance appeared above Prince Bei Jing!
"The God of Destiny?!" The mysterious aura forced Shui Rong to believe what he was seeing. Overwhelmed by innate human respect, he involuntarily bowed. "Great God, what command do
you have summoned me for?" "Zhu Shui Rong, listen carefully!" The God of Destiny's previous condescension turned into utter solemnity. "Your Zhu dynasty's fate is sealed. The world is about to descend into chaos under the influence of powerful ministers, and your Zhu clan will surely suffer annihilation!" "
Ah!" Prince Bei Jing's expression instantly changed drastically. In his desperation, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he knelt down, pleading, "Great God, please save my Zhu dynasty, save the people of the world!"
"Alas! Such is the will of Heaven, and even I, the God, cannot interfere. But fortunately, your ancestors possessed virtue and left a glimmer of hope!" The five-colored radiance sighed with deep emotion, "Only by changing your destiny can you survive amidst nine deaths!"
"Please enlighten me, Great God! Shui Rong is eternally grateful!" Prince Bei Jing solemnly kowtowed three times in gratitude!
"Zhu Shui Rong, you are born with the aura of a true dragon, but you, whose element is metal, have mistakenly married the Virtuous Woman of Fire, thus you cannot ascend to the throne. And your elder brother is not a true dragon, so his life will surely end soon!"
At this moment, the God of Destiny's voice tightened involuntarily, echoing in a low voice, "As long as you foresee the secrets of Heaven, you can save yourself from this calamity. Then, by distancing yourself from the Virtuous Woman of Fire, everything will go smoothly, and you will become the new Emperor!"
"Ah!" Prince Bei Jing's soaring fighting spirit was instantly caught in a battle between heaven and man. He murmured subconsciously, "Does the Great God mean... I should divorce the Princess?!" "
If you don't divorce the Princess, you may save the Zhu Dynasty, but you will never become a true king!"
Master Bao initially intended to use the entire realm as leverage, but seeing the complex and painful tears in the Princess of Bei Jing's eyes, the domineering man couldn't resist his true feelings and made a huge concession!
"Ah..." A tremendous shock erupted like a roaring hurricane, the chaotic thoughts causing a sharp pain in the Prince of Bei Jing's head. Finally, he murmured to himself, lost in thought, "The throne, the Princess, the throne, the Princess..."
Between power and women, how many people in the world don't fall into a battle between heaven and man?!
The Prince of Bei Jing was undoubtedly a remarkable person. But even he couldn't transcend human nature. Facing the pinnacle of power, the regret he felt when he was chosen as heir apparent in his youth lingered in his heart for a long time!
A woman in exchange for the throne—the allure of such a power is unimaginable to those who haven't experienced it firsthand. Like an electric shock, Shui Rong's love for the princess began to crumble under the overwhelming temptation!
Within the dazzling light, while Bao Er Ye clenched his fists, his heart pounding, the Princess of Bei Jing trembled, her face changing color in disarray. Her complex emotions were beyond even her own comprehension!
"Great God, if I...divine the princess, will she suffer terribly?" The upright Prince of Bei Jing began to compromise before the greatest test of his life. The lack of offspring was undoubtedly a factor, and the long-held thought burst forth, "Also, Great God, may I have descendants?"
Hearing this, the Princess of Bei Jing, though unable to move, uncontrollably shed tears from her eyes. The unspoken anxieties between the couple, though not usually apparent, were now evident in her "dream"—she finally saw that the seemingly uninhibited Shui Rong harbored deep resentment about this!
"As compensation, the Princess will also find happiness in the future!" As he said this, a warm feeling welled up in the beautiful young woman's eyes, smoothing out her bruised and battered heart. He continued, "As for the matter of offspring, once you regain your true dragon form, everything will be as normal!"
"Then...then...I...!" Having exhausted all her strength, Shui Rong finally mustered the courage after the long wait of fate. He, merely a hero, not yet a saint, finally bowed his head before the greatest temptation of the world! The respectful affection between husband and wife was beautiful, but it lacked that intoxicating passion, and could not be etched into the heart and become an indelible mark on life! The arranged marriage had finally succumbed to the powerful temptation!
"Ugh..." Before the Prince of Beijing could finish speaking, the Princess's tears, surging like mist, swirled within the multicolored light!
The Prince of Bao did not interrupt the Princess's weeping. He gently embraced his beloved's trembling body. Though he had won the gamble, the joy that welled up within him was quickly dispelled by the princess's tears. Though he knew this was like the darkness before dawn, he couldn't shake the tension and hidden pain in his heart!
"Shui Rong, patiently await your ascension to the throne! I hope you will be a benevolent emperor who loves his people like his own children!" The final words of fate echoed in his heart, the multicolored light diminishing until it became a single point of light that flew away into the distant starry sky!
"Remember, treat the people with gentleness, govern your ministers with firmness!" The accumulated experience from thousands of years into the future had become a simple eight-character mantra, deeply engraved in Shui Rong's heart!
"Ah!" A passionate moan echoed in the void. Above the clouds in the night sky, surrounded by soft silver light, Bao Yu carried his beloved directly into the sky. Just like their first time making love, the mysterious spring colors once again blushed the moon's fair face!
At this moment, no words could soothe the helpless heart of Princess Bei Jing more than actions. Women are inherently driven by a pursuit of perfection and romance, and faced with the
harsh realities of life, her heart was broken! Although there were regrets about being with Bao Er Ye, the spark of life quietly made up for everything. With her lover's powerful thrust, the princess's limbs almost simultaneously wrapped around his masculine body, their fierce and desperate entanglement only allowing her to experience her true existence and feel the fiery, eternal passion through countless breathtaking marks of love!
A new day brought the old game, though the card game had been going on for several days. But stimulated by the different stakes, the cold beauty, a resentful woman in the deep palace, was becoming increasingly interested, especially in the antics of the two young maids!
"Auntie, are you ready?" The Crown Princess's clear laughter reached the Empress's ears before she could even react.
"Alright!" The stunningly beautiful Empress, her tall figure beaming with smiles, walked towards the card table. But before she could finish speaking, the cold beauty stopped in her tracks. Her wide eyes, filled with surprise, suddenly revealed a hint of embarrassment and annoyance. It turned out that Li Zhi had not only come with the little princess, but had also brought the little eunuch, Xiao Baozi, into the forbidden area where the four royal women were playing cards!
"Sister-in-law, let's begin!" The lively little princess pretended not to see the displeasure in the Empress's eyes and impatiently urged her to hurry up and start playing.
"Sister, let's go!" The princess, now an accomplice of the two girls, took her sister's arm at the opportune moment and suggested gently, "Let's just bet on drinking, otherwise those two girls will be noisy again!"
"Sigh! Alright!" Seeing that her usually gentle and dignified younger sister didn't mind, the Empress, though initially hesitant, thought her sister's suggestion was good. Her stern face softened into a smile, and she reluctantly sat down at the card table under her sister's half-persuasion and half-pulling.
The Empress's majesty was not to be underestimated. Although the two girls were somewhat dissatisfied, the betting on clothes, which made them feel hot, was forced to stop. And the wine, which was already a piece of cake for the four girls, once again became the symbol of victory or defeat.
"Hehe..." The little princess had already made a great gain at the start of the battle. The little eunuch behind the scenes played a crucial role in this, and the smug Tianyi, when faced with a problem, naturally turned back and asked, "Little Baozi, how should we play this card?"
"No way!" The Crown Princess, already showing signs of defeat, protested decisively, indignantly saying, "How can Little Baozi only help you? From this round onwards, he can say he's only helping me!"
"Hmph! I brought him here, of course he'll help me!" The little princess, of course, didn't want her strategist to become an enemy, her crescent-shaped eyes shaking rapidly as she loudly objected!
"Auntie, Second Auntie, say something! This isn't fair!" After losing another round, the Crown Princess sweetly turned to the two beauties, who were also in a bad situation, for help.
The weak naturally formed an alliance easily, and with the Princess's nod of agreement, the Empress followed the Crown Princess's lead, saying, "Alright! Little Baozi will take turns helping us, each person limited to one incense stick's time, how about that?"
The little princess, though raising both hands in opposition. Unfortunately, the three women each won with just one hand, making the skilled eunuch a mobile sentry!
This guy with extraordinary powers was, of course, countless times more powerful than the God of Gamblers. After he helped Li Zhi and the Princess, the two women were indeed overjoyed and won repeatedly.
"Giggle, giggle..." After the wine flowed onto her lips, the Empress, her jade-like face flushed and slightly drunk, laughed loudly, looking at the eunuch beside her, saying, "Little Baozi, now it's my turn, isn't it!"
The Queen's desperate counterattack has begun! However, her luck seems to be worse than that of the three women. The cards she draws are always a mix of good and bad, and even the usually quick-witted Xiao Baozi has to put in more effort!
"Your Majesty, play it like this!" As time passed, the enthusiasm of the game gradually dissolved the instinctive unfamiliarity and wariness between people. Unbeknownst to them, the little eunuch was already standing shoulder to shoulder with the Queen. The cold beauty sat upright at the table, while the little eunuch bent down and carefully pointed out the cards.
In the heat of the moment, Xiao Baozi accidentally brushed against the Empress's shoulder. The Empress, intrigued, instinctively felt a tremor in her heart, but her guard instantly vanished. She chuckled to herself, thinking, "He's just a man who isn't quite a man, and he looks only thirteen or fourteen. Why should I make a fuss and let two little girls laugh at me?! Besides, my sister didn't seem uncomfortable at all; I can't lose face!"
The slight touch was readily accepted by the Empress. Fortunately, although the little eunuch continued to rub against her smooth shoulder and back, he didn't do anything else inappropriate, and the magnanimous Empress completely accepted it as normal.
"Hehe... Xiao Baozi, you are truly my lucky star!" The joy of victory made the Empress praise the unique little eunuch highly, and the initial feeling between them subtly began to change again!
"It is my honor to serve Your Majesty!" Little Baozi, his eyes fixed on the card game, replied respectfully. Due to their positions, the little eunuch's slightly tilted head was only inches from the beauty's delicate earlobe. His masculine heat, along with his words, penetrated the Empress's heart!
"Ah!" The cold beauty had transformed into a sensitive, passionate one, her lips moving softly in a low moan. But the cry from her heart was piercing, and the Empress, who hadn't felt masculine warmth for years, felt a sudden discomfort. Her dignified nature immediately suppressed the nascent ripples. The initial awkwardness resurfaced!
"Sister, don't be so happy, hurry up and play your card!" Just as the Empress was about to dismiss him, Princess Fengying's cheerful voice diverted her attention.
Wow! What's wrong with me?! How could I feel such a thing about a little eunuch? Have I gone mad from being out of favor for so long?!
Thinking of this, the Empress subconsciously shifted all blame onto the heartless Emperor. A vengeful thought flickered in her heart, and the beautiful woman quietly stopped her retreat.
"Your Majesty, it's time to play this card!" The Empress, lost in thought, hadn't heard the eunuch's instruction. The diligent eunuch quickly reached out and pressed down on the Empress's hand.
Under normal circumstances, such a gesture would have enraged her, and she might even have dragged the eunuch away and beheaded! But at this moment, it was so natural. The cold beauty, unperturbed, obediently withdrew her hand and, amidst her flustered heart , played her card again!
The clever eunuch's large hand didn't linger, and his proper behavior reassured the Empress. The lingering warmth of the beautiful woman's hand made the Empress secretly itch, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the beautiful woman began to misunderstand more and more often from then on. The eunuch's pointing gestures naturally became more frequent.
Under the influence of the fine wine, the radiant Empress's mind gradually drifted away, so much so that even when the card game ended at midday, the eunuch, who should have only lasted for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, hadn't left her side!
"Ugh... I'm drunk, I'm done playing! I concede today!" The usually fiercely competitive Tianyi surprisingly folded her cards, the girl who had started out winning big ended up being the biggest loser, perfectly illustrating the gambler's saying: "Don't be the first to fall for a thousand cuts!"
"Sister, congratulations, you're the only one who didn't get drunk today!" The Princess's figure was already swaying. Her languid words revealed a barely perceptible smile!
"I told you, Xiao Baozi is my lucky star, now you know my methods!" The sole winner was naturally proud, and the Empress, victorious for the first time, was incredibly excited.
"Your Majesty, if I had known... this would happen, I... wouldn't have brought... him!" The little princess, her voice trembling with drunkenness, feigned regret, rolling her eyes as she said, "I'm never... bringing that traitor Xiao Baozi to the next card game!"
"That won't do! Tonight, you must bring Fuxing to play cards!" The Empress blurted out, somewhat out of control, lightly patting the thin eunuch's shoulder, "Xiao Baozi, if the little maid doesn't bring you, you'll have to come by yourself, understand?"
"This humble servant obeys Your Majesty's decree!" The handsome little eunuch, his voice high-pitched, bowed and accepted the decree. Thus, the four women's forbidden area gained a new eunuch to serve them amidst playful banter!
Tianyi and Li Zhi staggered away, attended by their respective maids, while the responsibility of helping the Princess back to her room fell on Xiao Baozi. The Empress, preoccupied with her own thoughts, not only didn't stop them but also jokingly cooperated, using the excuse that the Princess had no maid to forcibly keep Xiao Baozi from the little princess!
The ambiguous feelings were already difficult to suppress, and there was no need to suppress them. As the door closed, their fiery bodies naturally embraced.
Although it was only after lunch and the sun was high in the sky, the bright sunshine couldn't stop their passion from erupting.
"Ah!" The little eunuch's fierce and forceful thrust pierced through her jade gate. Nature itself seemed to rouse itself in that instant. Fueled by the alcohol, the now fully recovered Bao Er Ye, brimming with passion, released wave after wave of scalding lava into his beloved's body!
March had passed, and the peach blossoms had faded.
People only loved the magnificent beauty of blooming peach blossoms, disdaining the bare branches.
"Alas!" A long sigh lingered among the withered branches. The few remaining crimson peach blossoms trembled slightly in the wind, trying their best to release their intoxicating fragrance in their final moments.
A delicate figure strolled slowly through the peach grove. The fallen petals, after their vibrant bloom, lay helplessly scattered on the ground, awaiting the passage of time to melt into soil and nourish the earth.
"Miss, you're being melancholy again!" A clear, youthful voice, tinged with concern and comfort, called out. The loyal Zijuan followed closely behind Daiyu into the peach grove.
Among the maids of the Jia family, Zijuan was undoubtedly one of those whose inner and outer beauty could rival that of Xiren and Qingwen. Unfortunately, being constantly surrounded by the peerless beauty of Lin Daiyu, her own brilliance was inevitably overshadowed.
"I'm not just being melancholic; don't you think these peach blossoms look so desolate now?!" Lin Daiyu's signature delicate eyebrows were filled with sorrow as she sighed, "Think of how beautiful and beloved the peach blossoms were when they were in full bloom, but now they can only accompany the heavens and earth, becoming mere flower mud!"
She paused, then looked up at the void and lamented, "I wonder if I will be trampled on like these peach blossoms after I die?!"
"Good girl, don't scare me like that!" Zijuan playfully stepped forward to divert Daiyu's attention, saying, "Third Miss is waiting for you to discuss the poetry club! Baochai suddenly left, and now you can't just abandon her. Let's go back!"
"Sigh! Alright!" Daiyu's deep sorrow was somewhat dispelled by the clever maid's intervention. The beautiful young woman's melancholy thoughts involuntarily turned to the poetry club, and her graceful figure slowly disappeared into the peach grove along with the sorrowful breeze.
Inside the imperial palace, the most resentful woman in the land was also sighing softly. However, the cold beauty was not grieving over the moon or feeling sentimental about the scenery, but was sighing in anxious and distressing waiting!
"Sigh! Why aren't those two little girls here yet?!" Since nightfall, the Empress had gazed at the palace gates countless times, and couldn't help but turn to her sister, who was beaming with joy, and say, "Do you think those two little girls might not come? They usually arrive long ago!"
"Hehe..." With a huge weight lifted from her heart, the Princess was naturally relaxed and at ease. The beautiful woman, her eyes filled with laughter, teased, "Sister, don't worry, Tianyi and Zhi'er are even more addicted than you. Even you're itching to play, so how could they not come?!"
The Empress, her face slightly flushed, wanted to cover it up, but her increasingly high level of interest left her speechless. Under Xiao Baozi's guidance, the beautiful woman had won three consecutive games and was completely engrossed in the game. At this moment, she only wanted to use the game to suppress the slight itch in her heart and the resentment that was about to erupt deep within her!
So what if she's the Empress?! So what if she's the mother of the nation, so supremely noble?! She's nothing but a useless illusion. Stripped of her glamorous facade, she's just a lonely, resentful woman confined to her chambers!
"Why haven't they come yet tonight? Are they afraid of losing?!" After a moment of silence, the Empress, her mind in turmoil, instinctively tried to make conversation. Her heart and beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation for the two young girls to leap in from outside the door, and of course, she couldn't forget the little eunuch who made her heart race.
Why was she so eager to see Xiao Baozi?! This thought sent a chill down her spine, and she involuntarily recalled the strange feelings of the past few days. Upon reflection, her heart skipped a beat. Good
heavens, she had actually developed feelings for a little eunuch!
"No, I can't!" Her inner voice screamed, and the Empress clenched her fists. She had to return to normal. How could the mother of the nation be attracted to a useless little eunuch? It must be because she was too lonely!
What should she do? A myriad of thoughts surged into the Empress's eyes in an instant, while the Princess Consort, knowing the situation, kept silent, leaving her sister, who was in utter turmoil, sitting there feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles, her mind a jumble of thoughts!
Chapter 58 The Third Meeting of the Royal Women (7)
Cut him down! No! A pang of pain from the bottom of her heart and her kind nature prevented the Empress from using the royal family's usual tricks. She changed her mind and adopted a gentler approach, deciding that she would no longer allow the eunuch to enter the palace. As long as she didn't see him, his strange thoughts would naturally fade away!
Time passed leisurely as always. As the crescent moon climbed to its zenith, the two beauties' firm confidence gradually disappeared!
This bad guy isn't coming! The Princess Consort's disappointed eyes were tinged with bitterness. Knowing her lover well, she couldn't help but think that the two women's absence must be because they were too "tired"!
They're not coming! He's not coming! The Empress was thinking of the same person, but the cold beauty's feelings were the exact opposite of the Princess's. The pressure of this contradiction had made the Empress's heart feel like a boulder, but now that her target hadn't appeared, she felt relieved. The relaxed beauty didn't realize that as her mind eased, her previously firm resolve also faded; she even forgot she should issue an edict never to allow eunuchs into the palace again.
Hope always arrives at the last moment. Just as the two women's faces dimmed and they completely gave up, the overwhelming joy of regaining what they had lost descended upon them, shocking their hearts and causing a surge of emotion that made them forget their earlier almost-gritting "resentment" and "determination.
" "Empress sister-in-law, Princess sister-in-law, hurry up and start the game! I'm so impatient!" The cheerful little princess, completely oblivious to being late, was the first to sit down at the card table.
"Auntie, Auntie, hurry up!" Li Zhi also took the initiative, looking anxious. The two girls cleverly diverted the attention of the two beauties, as they couldn't easily explain their lateness.
The humble smile on Xiao Baozi's face, who had unknowingly become the Empress's personal advisor, had vanished. His relaxed, cheerful laughter, coupled with his subtly regained masculine voice, was no wonder that the cold beauty was often attacked, her resentful heart gradually crumbling under the invasion of his masculine aura.
Although the changes were quite obvious, because they spent so much time together, even Tianyi, Li Zhi, and the Princess Consort hadn't noticed. The Empress, torn between her own feelings and her own, had no time to pay attention to such details.
"Sister, I can't wait any longer, let's go!" The Princess Consort, in a joyful tone, gave the Empress a way out. The two noble ladies, their hearts stirred by the change, exchanged a smile and subconsciously quickened their pace to sit at the card table.
The game began again, and whether intentionally or not, the four women were initially immersed in the fun of the game.
"Your Majesty, let me give you a shoulder massage!" The young eunuch acted first and asked for permission later, speaking softly only after his warm palms landed on the Empress's fragrant shoulders. His gentle and solemn tone was not like a servant flattering his master, but rather like the tender care and affection between lovers.
The Empress's delicate body trembled slightly at first. Then, surrounded by the young eunuch's tender embrace, she stopped her scolding words, and the obliviousness of the other three women gave her a reason to quietly accept it.
Cups of fine wine flowed over their fragrant lips, and the four women, having won and lost, had a fairly even match today, their four beautiful faces adding a touch of alluring spring.
"Sigh! Li Zhi, don't you think it's getting a little boring?" After the initial excitement, Tianyi began to lose interest and reluctantly played cards randomly.
"Yes! I also feel it's not as fun as it was a few days ago!" The Crown Princess also pretended to lose interest, and drank a cup of fine wine before even losing. Then, she naturally countered, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Although the princesses still enjoyed the game, they felt it lacked excitement, and upon hearing this, they involuntarily stopped what they were doing. They looked at the two women curiously.
"Little Baozi, do you have any good ideas?" Slightly tipsy, Tianyi didn't want to think too much, and smiled brightly at the eunuch who was "intimately" touching the Empress.
"This..." The eunuch's gentle kneading paused slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing across his handsome face.
"Tell us, we won't blame you!" The Empress no longer felt any discomfort with the eunuch's massage; habit had become second nature. The beautiful woman's delicate body even seemed to almost touch the eunuch's thin embrace, the ambiguous threads of intimacy subtly connecting their hearts; though she didn't turn around, the Empress miraculously sensed the eunuch's hesitation.
“Your Majesty,” Xiao Baozi said resolutely, “card games in common parlance usually involve betting money. This greatly stimulates the greedy nature of humankind.” “But you ladies are all wealthy and noble, so naturally you have little interest in money; while gambling with wine is enjoyable, it will naturally become tiresome after many days. If you want the card games to be more fun, you must come up with new betting options!”
“I see!” Tianyi’s crescent-shaped eyes sparkled with understanding, and Li Zhi’s jade-like face relaxed, showing eagerness to try.
The two dignified and mature beauties, naturally more composed, sensed something was amiss when they saw the two young maids’ behavior. They were about to speak to stop them, but it was too late.
“I’ve got an idea!” Tianyi’s slender body brimming with energy, she cheered loudly, “How about we gamble with clothes like before?”
“Great!” The Crown Princess responded excitedly without fear, then turned to her two aunts and said, “Eldest Aunt, Second Aunt, you won’t refuse, will you?!”
Good heavens! The two young maids have gone mad! The Empress, her beautiful eyes brimming with embarrassment, instinctively glanced at the young eunuch beside her. Although Xiao Baozi wasn't a man, he wasn't a woman either. How could she, as Empress, be naked in front of him!
No, she had to object no matter what! As the Empress repeatedly encouraged herself, whether intentionally or in a moment of confusion, she completely forgot the simplest solution: simply kicking the young eunuch out of the room would solve everything!
"Sister-in-law, you're not scared, are you?!" Seeing that the Empress and the Princess Consort didn't respond for a long time, Tianyi used the most old-fashioned but always effective provocation tactic, "Also, Sister-in-law, are you scared too?"
"Sister, you tell me, I'll listen to your opinion!" Knowing the Princess Consort as she did, the Empress was 100% certain that her dignified and gentle sister would strongly object. The intelligent beauty didn't want to show weakness in front of the two young maids, nor did she want to expose herself in front of the eunuchs and lose her dignity. With a change of mind, the clever Empress chose to go with the flow, using a bit of alcohol to counterattack Tianyi, "How could I be afraid of you two young maids, but your sister-in-law, she..."
"No problem!" Before the Empress's smugness could even reach her lips, her sister-in-law hesitated for a moment and then agreed in a way that left her dumbfounded. Fortunately, the voluptuous Princess Consort changed the subject, "But you only have to take off your outer garment, and if you win, you can put it back on. If that's the case, then I'll participate!" Good
heavens! Has the world changed?! The Empress closed her beautiful eyes repeatedly, trying to make out the smiling, rosy-cheeked woman in her thirties before her. Was this still the younger sister she remembered? Her appearance hadn't changed. But amidst the familiarity, the Empress felt a strange sense of wonder.
She had changed, truly changed, becoming even more beautiful and captivating than before!
"Sigh! Well, something's better than nothing!" Tianyi and Lizhi exchanged a smile, their tone not entirely satisfied, but they nodded helplessly in agreement.
"Second Aunt, we'll listen to you this time, and next time we'll do it the way we always do!" Lizhi chimed in, and the three women thus settled their somewhat absurd but cleverly arranged bet.
The Empress, who had previously made such bold pronouncements, hadn't expected things to turn out this way. The cold beauty, whose cleverness had backfired, was now forced into a corner. If she went back on her word, it would be disrespectful to her younger sister in front of the two maids! She could show respect to Tianyi and Lizhi, but she couldn't treat her sisterly sister with the same devotion, especially since her sister had significantly reduced the stakes—after much deliberation, the beautiful Empress finally reluctantly nodded her head.
"Little Baozi, stand right next to me. If I lose, I'll punish you!" Though forced into a corner, the Empress, unwilling to accept defeat, cleverly found her last line of defense. Taking the initiative, the beauty used her privilege to pull the young eunuch to her side, and, emboldened by a bit of alcohol, gave him a rare, flirtatious wink.
Although the stakes were lowered, the presence of a man who wasn't a man standing beside her made the game even more nerve-wracking. Fortunately, the heavens were on her side, and the wins and losses were split among the four women without directly punishing any one of them.
As time passed, the Empress's tense nerves quietly dissipated with laughter. The beauty gradually became accustomed to putting on and taking off her outer robes. Initially, she carefully fastened her collar each time she put one on. Later, she simply threw the belt aside, opening her heart like the little princess and the Crown Princess.
"Cluck, cluck..." The cheerful sound of silver bells filled the small space. To be honest, in the eyes of the four girls whose outer garments were just beginning to undress, Xiao Baozi didn't gain much of a real advantage. After all, although the outer garment was gone, the inner garments of the ancients were even more conservative than modern outer garments. The Empress's shyness stemmed more from the strange feeling in her heart and the stimulation of traditional etiquette!
Time suddenly jumped, and a similar scene flashed by—it was already the second night. Without the two maids saying anything, the Princess, having lost a round, gracefully rose and took off an outer garment.
"Ah! Second Aunt, you cheated!" The Crown Princess's dissatisfaction contained a hint of teasing. The three girls' beautiful eyes simultaneously stared at the layers of clothing beneath the Princess's outer garment. The Princess was truly remarkable; even in the sweltering summer heat, she wore so many thick layers—it seemed she was deliberately cheating.
"Hehe..." The usually gentle beauty laughed like a young girl of sixteen, her orchid-like fingers lightly poking Li Zhi's forehead as she rushed forward. "Zhi'er, you didn't specify how many clothes to wear!"
The scene shifted again, the passionate moment moving into the new night.
"Giggle, giggle..." The little princess, having lost at cards, was not angry but rather pleased. After happily drinking a cup of wine, she leaped to her feet, and to the astonishment of the three women, she finally slowly removed her clothes, revealing the mystery.
"Oh! You copied me!" It turned out the little girl had also wrapped herself up like a big dumpling!
"You rascal!" Li Zhi dared not attack her second aunt wantonly; she had little patience for her mortal enemy.
"Hmph! How about that?" The little princess raised her smug face, then her eyes gleamed with cunning as she looked around at the three women. "Don't think I don't know. Judging from your appearances, I'm sure neither my sister-in-law nor Li Zhi are dressed less than the others, and as for my sister-in-law, needless to say!"
The little eunuch, with his head bowed and eyes lowered, was secretly overjoyed. This little incident wasn't part of his plan; he was like a director at the helm, and the four women were excellent actors, freely improvising their own brilliant moments under the director's direction.
Faced with the little princess's mocking question, the previously aggressive Li Zhi lowered her head, while the righteous princess and empress blushed.
"How about this, since everyone is dressed so warmly, the loser won't put their clothes back on. Whoever takes off all their underwear loses!" People say wine emboldens heroes, but now it emboldens beauties. In the enchanting, misty atmosphere, the momentarily bewildered empress nodded in agreement along with the princess.
Provoked by her nemesis's sidelong glance, the Crown Princess retorted angrily, "Let's bet!"
Colorful garments fluttered like butterflies, creating a whimsical, spring-like atmosphere. The increasingly heavy breaths, like ripples on water from a pebble, propelled the four women in the room towards a higher peak of passion.
"Phew!" The Empress let out a long sigh. At the critical moment, she escaped unscathed thanks to the guidance of the eunuch standing nearby. Poor Li Zhi was now half-naked, her inner garments removed.
The card game ended, and the lively Li Zhi, her eyes glazed with intoxication, boldly asked the eunuch to help her pick up and dress. While dressing, she even leaned softly into the eunuch's arms without any regard for propriety.
Wait, what is Zhi'er doing?! The Crown Princess's excessive behavior inevitably worried the Empress, but seeing Li Zhi's flushed, drunken face, she snapped back to reality. It seemed Zhi'er was indeed drunk; having Xiao Baozi serve her wouldn't hurt! Even the Phoenix Pool had eunuchs!
The joyous time passed quickly. In an instant, another loser appeared!
This time, it was the Princess's turn to suffer a major setback. The Empress, while gloating, couldn't help but feel envious of the increasingly perfect, voluptuous body of the Princess, who, drunk and weak, imitated Li Zhi, ordering around the eunuchs. Finally, in her drunken state, she threw herself into Xiao Baozi's arms.
Before the stunned Empress could react, Xiao Baozi's slender arms, strong and powerful like a grown man's, swept the taller Princess up in his arms and carried her step by step towards her bedroom in an extremely suggestive manner.
Whoosh—the wind swirled around them, intensifying the breeze, and the Empress's eyes, seven parts drunk, shone with a strange light.
The little eunuch's figure suddenly grew tall and imposing in her eyes and heart, eventually reaching for the sky!
A strange thought lingered in the beautiful Empress's mind: Little Baozi doesn't look like a eunuch at all!
What does it mean to unravel the mystery?! This answer will one day be etched into the Empress's memory!
"Wow… Little Baozi. Do you think my drawing is correct?" In Tianyi Palace, the Crown Princess, who resided there, showed no respect for her mistress, cheering and outshining the little princess once again.
"Hmph! Scribbles!" Tianyi, always finding fault, was even slower, her lips slightly pursed, maliciously attacking her rival's masterpiece, unaware that what they had drawn was precisely the authentic "scribbles"!
The little princess paused slightly, not wanting to linger on this topic with the smug Crown Princess any longer. The tone shifted abruptly as she asked in a low voice, "You brat, when are we going to treat the Empress Dowager's illness? We can't let you take advantage of us every day, can we?!
If the Empress Dowager finds out, she'll kill us!" "Heh, heh..." The rogue chuckled lightly, unconcerned, and retorted leisurely, "What do you think?! If we can persuade the Empress to cooperate now, why wouldn't I, your husband, be happy to do it?"
"But...don't you...have any other way?" The Crown Princess's face flushed red. She asked, half-jokingly, "Or are you deliberately trying to seduce Auntie?"
"I'm innocent! I really have no other way!" The eunuch, equally half-joking, replied naturally, almost shedding a pitiful tear of injustice. "I've already asked the Princess to persuade the Empress one last time. If it really doesn't work, you're not allowed to make wild guesses about my character!"
"Heh, heh...do you even have any character?!" The two women's teasing words hadn't even finished when... The enraged eunuch pounced, and the Crown Princess and the little princess, surprisingly, turned pale with fright as the eunuch chased after them.
"Sister, please listen to my advice! I've truly found a master this time!" The princess, her beautiful face filled with frustration, had exhausted all her words. She hadn't expected her sister's stubbornness to be so formidable.
"Alright, my dear sister, I know you mean well!" The beautiful queen was deeply moved by the princess's concern. Forcing away her inner turmoil, the usually cold and aloof beauty smiled, as if she had coaxed her younger sister in her youth, saying with a laugh, "Sister, your illness hasn't flared up these past few days. Perhaps this strange ailment will heal itself!"
Knowing her sister was only trying to comfort her, the Princess couldn't find a reason to continue. Given the Empress's current predicament, she had no other option but to reveal the truth.
"No!" Princess Fengying's thoughts shifted. Understanding her sister's intentions, she knew the time wasn't right.
The Empress would never allow this stranger to be so intimately close to Baoyu; bound by traditional norms, a woman would rather commit suicide than compromise her purity. As for Xiao Baozi, although the Empress had developed a strong liking for him, revealing the truth might cause the proud Empress immense shame and anger at being "deceived," thus destroying her last hope.
Sigh! The Princess sighed inwardly, her mind filled with slight frustration. Finally, she pondered to herself, "Is it really only by making my sister completely fall in love with Xiao Baozi?" That way, all the problems could be solved, but it seemed a little... a little...
the princess couldn't quite put her finger on what it was. The thought of herself, her niece, and her sister-in-law working together to send her sister into her lover's arms—though not a real sexual encounter, the ambiguous situation was almost identical!
This made her heart pound even harder. An indescribable, exciting feeling surged through her mind, lingering there. It seemed neither she nor her sister could escape the clutches of this wicked man!
"My two ladies, what I say is absolutely true!" On the other hand, after explaining, the little eunuch's expression turned serious, affirming the heavens' perfect arrangement: "This evil disease is the work of the former evil monk, the Imperial Preceptor. He originally intended to use the Empress's noble body, which embodies the dignity of the nation, to create a 'Disease Demon' for him to control. Once this 'Disease Demon' was created, and a demon absorbed its evil energy, the evil monk would eventually become a gigantic demon—the Disease Demon!"
"Ah! The Disease Demon!" The two girls' astonishment pierced the sky, and the terrified Tianyi blurted out the last trace of doubt, "Then why didn't this evil monk seek out someone else? Why did he have to harm the Empress Dowager?!"
"The Empress is the most revered woman in the world, and to become Empress is a destiny ordained by Heaven. This is what is meant by being born with noble destiny! If that demon wants to transform into a demon, only the Empress and the Emperor are suitable in the entire realm. Who do you think he will choose? And once he succeeds, his magical power will leap dramatically. You must know that becoming a primordial demon is the dream of the demon realm!"
The little eunuch concentrated, recalling the passages in the Daoist scriptures. Although he only had a vague understanding, his perfect memory allowed him to recite them perfectly. He then secretly chuckled to himself, "Fortunately, this evil monk's wicked deeds were unintentionally interrupted. Now, while the Empress's demonic possession is not yet severe, she can still be cured. However, it requires the Empress's willing cooperation; otherwise, why would I, her husband, expend so much effort?!"
"Mmm!" The sentimental look on the young man's face resonated with the two women, leaving no room for doubt. Though a tinge of instinctive bitterness lingered, they knew it was unavoidable and could only do their best to help. "Let's go, let's play cards!"
Tianyi and Li Zhi, after years of rivalry, had miraculously reached a state of perfect understanding. Their eyes met, and they smiled simultaneously, clearly understanding each other's thoughts. Since they would be helping with the treatment anyway, their presence meant the rascal wouldn't be afraid of any further tricks! Hehe…
After several rounds of drinks, the game was in full swing. The little princess, with her keen intuition, made a mistake without hesitation, prompted by Xiao Baozi's meaningful gaze. This "unexpected" coincidence brought the Queen a delightful surprise, and the unexpected victory made the beautiful Queen even more excited!
"Hehe... Little Baozi, you truly are my lucky star!" The cold beauty had been transformed into a fiery red rose by the passionate atmosphere. With the help of the wine, her tall, jade-like body quietly pressed against the young eunuch's chest.
"Your Majesty, present this one!" The young eunuch, pointing, had already wrapped his arms around her, his head and face teasing the beauty's blushing and burning cheeks with varying degrees of pressure. Unfortunately, being a eunuch, he could only tightly clamp his erect penis between his legs, not daring to freely and forcefully press the foreign object against the beautiful empress's smooth, plump buttocks.
"Aunt, since you like Little Baozi so much, why not keep him in the palace?" The Crown Princess glanced triumphantly at the little princess. Although the two were partners, they were constantly teasing each other under the premise of a unified empire.
Chapter 59 The Third Meeting of the Royal Princess (8)
"No!" The little princess could not openly retaliate against her mortal enemy's personal revenge. Tianyi, who had suffered a hidden loss, could only strongly object: "Sister-in-law, she only has this one caring eunuch. You can't really take her away!"
"Hehe... If you dare to beat me today, I will take her away!" The Empress was really tempted by Zhi'er's suggestion, but she was too embarrassed to speak up in the little princess's anxiety and panic. She could only use ambiguous words to resolve the little girl's impatience and her own temptation.
In the next round of cards, the little princess didn't beat the queen, but the princess unexpectedly won big. Taking advantage of her sister's inattention, the voluptuous beauty gave her lover a seductive look and said with a gentle smile, "Now, shouldn't you give me Xiaobaozi?"
"Hmph! It's not the final result, it doesn't count!" Li Zhi interrupted, her sweet voice pushing the atmosphere in the room to a new high. "I still want to win Xiaobaozi home!"
The four women's hearts suddenly skipped a beat. Each lost in their own thoughts, the commotion subsided, and the Crown Princess's casual words caused her and the other three women to let their imaginations run wild, their hearts pounding with excitement!
"Ah!" Perhaps unable to bear the burning desire in her heart, the little princess suddenly cried out, venting her fiery emotions. Influenced by the pervasive aroma of wine, she declared proudly, "Let's have a real contest today! Whoever strips naked loses! Do you dare?!"
"Ah!" The Empress's heart skipped a beat at such an outrageous suggestion, not even showing anger. She merely glanced shyly at the increasingly close eunuch beside her.
He was just a man who wasn't a real man; she had nothing to fear! Her sister would object, she would definitely object!
"Sister, you speak, I'll listen to your opinion!" With the Crown Princess's predictably excited agreement, the beautiful Empress once again pushed the decision to her sister. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she had forgotten the Princess's unexpected move last time.
Whoosh! The invisible wind blew even faster. It impatiently brought the long-awaited, vibrant colors of spring!
"Is that so!" Princess Fengying hesitated for a moment, causing the three women's hearts to leap into their throats simultaneously. "This bet is a bit inappropriate!"
Tianyi and Li Zhi looked disappointed, while the Empress, though relaxed, couldn't help but feel a pang of indescribable emotion.
Before the three women could even voice their thoughts, the dignified Princess, whose temperament had drastically changed, suddenly changed her tone, laughing and joking even more playfully than the little princess, "Since you've all put me in charge, let's bet bigger! Not only will we bet clothes, but Xiao Baozi will also undress us himself, and he'll even feed us the wine by hand. Hehe... If you're too scared, then we won't bet anything, but don't say I'm cowardly!"
"Boom!" A thunderbolt followed a lightning bolt, and in a flash, the Empress's mind went blank from her sister's shocking words. She stood there stunned, unable to even utter a word of objection.
"Sister, play your card!" The princess's laughter summoned the Empress's wandering thoughts back from the distant void. When the beautiful woman regained her senses, she realized that a new game had started unnoticed, and she had inexplicably been swept along.
Good heavens! What to do? The cold beauty felt as if her hands weighed a thousand pounds. A last vestige of reason echoed in her mind, "Drop your card, quickly drop it. Don't play along with them!"
"Your Majesty," at the crucial moment, Xiao Baozi's deep, resonant voice pierced the Empress's heart with irresistible force, like the most mysterious hook of love in the world, easily and accurately hooking the endless resentment and loneliness that had accumulated deep within her heart!
Human instinct and years of bitterness dispelled her fragile reason, and the internal and external changes caused the beauty to lose her composure and play cards carelessly under Xiao Baozi's guidance.
"Cluck, cluck..." Amidst the cheerful sound of silver bells. First came the outer garments, then the inner garments. Although the women were all wrapped in layers, a unique charm surrounded them. The silks that had been blocking the spring light fluttered away helplessly, and the summer breeze finally began to take effect.
Her heartstrings throbbed unconsciously. The Empress's plump, jade-like legs were already intimately touching the breeze. Tension and heat made the beauty subconsciously hide her long, rounded shape under the table. Trying desperately to avoid the eunuch's gaze, her mind was already hazy. Actually, wouldn't everything be fine if she just got rid of Xiao Baozi?!
She only did this so the eunuch could give her pointers on the game! Subconsciously, the beautiful Empress found a reason for herself. With a slight flush from her drunkenness, the beauty relaxed and quietly opened her jade-like legs. Although her forbidden area was concealed by her undergarments and bodice, the faint, alluring blackness made the breeze and the eunuch roar in their hearts almost simultaneously!
"Xiao Baozi, how do you come out?" the cold beauty asked, turning her head, only to meet the eunuch's burning gaze.
"Whoosh!" A crimson blush spread across the beauty's skin, not only her neck and earlobes, but even her jade-like legs and arms were not spared.
"Uh!" Caught red-handed, the young eunuch panicked, but the glint in his eyes seemed to pierce through the Empress's clothes. He instinctively reached out to help, flustered.
"Boom!" A soft, slippery sensation washed over him simultaneously. The Empress, overcome with shame and heat, writhed slightly, and the young eunuch's large hand inadvertently brushed across her full breasts.
The tingling and numbness forced the Empress to suppress a moan, but her body, exhausted, collapsed weakly into the young eunuch's warm embrace!
The other three women, their bodies also flushed, feigned calmness and indifference, which eased the Empress's near-explosive embarrassment.
The game resumed normally. Although the scene of the young eunuch painstakingly undressing the women was ambiguous, his outwardly proper actions hadn't caused them the discomfort they had imagined.
"Ah! I lost!" The Crown Princess, her luck running out at the crucial moment, instinctively turned and fled, now only wearing her undergarment!
"Hehe...Trying to cheat!" Tianyi, as expected, was Li Zhi's nemesis. He grabbed Li Zhi's arm first, while the Princess nearby assisted Tianyi with a wave of her hand.
"Zhi'er, a bet is a bet. Xiao Baozi is just a eunuch, he's nothing!" The Princess, whose temperament had suddenly changed, was now a veritable fairy, her youthful vivacity and energy returning to her beautiful young woman.
"Xiao Baozi, go!" The Empress knew her private area was wet and muddy; if she didn't get Xiao Baozi away, the wetness between her legs would be impossible to conceal. The extreme embarrassment made her urge the eunuch to leave her side in a soft voice, unaware of how tenderly she had looked at him just moments before.
A gentle breeze of spring cheers rose as the eunuch slowly removed the Crown Princess's undergarment. Although they were an old married couple, the amorous fellow couldn't help but swallow hard. His passionate gaze almost made Li Zhi throw herself into his arms.
"Hmph! Continue, I want revenge too!" The Crown Princess's hands partially concealed her breasts, which were faintly visible. The dissatisfied girl no longer tried to escape, but instead returned to the table with renewed courage.
"Fine, but you have to shuffle the cards!" The little princess deliberately teased her nemesis with a playful laugh. If she wanted to shuffle the cards, Li Zhi couldn't make a final attempt to hide. Heh, heh...
"You..." Li Zhi glared fiercely at her nemesis, both ashamed and angry. After her two aunts remained neutral for a moment, the Crown Princess suddenly turned her anger into a smile tinged with resentment, saying, "Heaven's will. You're something else! Shake it then, I don't believe you won't lose!"
Wow... the wind seemed to rage! The wild Crown Princess generously lowered her hands, her delicate breasts standing tall and proud, the rosy nipples displaying her youthful charm!
The three women in the room were all sisters, so they weren't too shocked. Li Zhi's breakthrough undoubtedly affected the Empress the most! The cold beauty, who had been smiling with her lips slightly parted, was already shocked by her sister's performance, and her daughter-in-law and niece, Di Zhi'er, left her utterly dumbfounded!
Li Zhi's boldness raised the courage of the other women to a whole new level. After a moment of awkwardness, the Crown Princess became even more self-satisfied, even jumping around when she got a good hand. Her ordinary actions were now full of vibrancy. Even the three women, who were also women, couldn't help but be captivated by her leaping movements, not to mention the thirsty, lecherous man.
Cups of wine were clinked together, and the wine was drunk in a flash! With the ever-increasing sensual atmosphere, the women's beautiful eyes became more hazy, and everything was bathed in a beautiful glow in the mist. All the irrationality became as natural and beautiful as flowing water!
The predetermined trajectory of fate had finally reached a crucial moment. The Empress's luck did not last. When the Princess and fate had both slipped through their fingers, the loser finally fell to the Empress, the mother of the nation.
"Hehe... Sister, let's see how you make fun of us!" The princess beside her had the advantage of proximity. She intimately wrapped her jade-like hand around her sister's neck, stopping her from escaping.
"Aunt, it's finally your turn. A bet's a bet!" Li Zhi had already lost even her underpants; the secluded valley hidden by the faint fragrance of grass left the Empress with no excuse to back out.
"Sister-in-law. Do you choose the top or the bottom?" The little princess's teasing was even more ambiguous, causing the Empress's heart to race wildly, leaving her no chance to object.
Worse still, the usually well-behaved little Baozi, the rascal, actually stopped his large hand on the beauty's ample waist at this crucial moment, feigning respect as he teased, "Your Majesty, would you like me to take off your bodice or your undergarments?"
Ugh... that damned eunuch, that brat Baozi, asking her such a question at a time like this, how was she supposed to answer?!
"Hehe... just take off your undergarments!" The mischievous princess, her crescent-shaped eyes sparkling with a devilish elfin light, playfully offered the eunuch a terrible idea!
"Ah! No... no! Just... just take off your bodice!" Amidst her overwhelming shyness, her conflicted thoughts finally tore away the empress's veil of propriety. Already nine-tenths intoxicated by spring's allure and wine, the beauty didn't want to maintain her last shred of sobriety; before her words even finished, her delicate body had already slumped into the hands of the three women.
"Little Baozi, hurry! You can't break the rules!" Li Zhi gave the eunuch a double-edged glare. Since passion had already reached this point, they had no choice but to accept it wholeheartedly; there was no turning back, only resolute determination!
"Your Majesty, let me serve you!" Little Baozi's fiery words flowed with seduction, his trembling hand slowly gliding across the void to the empress's body.
Spring's passion boiled, the wind howled, the enchanting game finally reached the edge of success, final victory within reach!
Her rounded shoulders began to tremble as the young eunuch's surging hands slowly moved upwards along her perfect curves. Caught between the three women, the Empress psychologically relinquished her resistance.
This was just a game; having lost, she had to accept it. Besides, her sisters had readily agreed, so how could she go back on her word?! Moreover, Xiao Baozi was just a eunuch; eunuchs had always undressed their masters—no need to panic!
Though her thoughts found a reason in that instant, the beautiful woman, once calmed, was incredibly perceptive. The young eunuch had already turned to face her, his outstretched hands seemingly gently cupping her head—the intimate gesture was exactly like the preparations before a lover's kiss! His
strong fingertips traced small circles on the Empress's skin; the young eunuch could even hear the moans rising from his throat. Her beautiful face, with its closed eyes and flushed cheeks, was so close, its captivating allure and unique nobility stimulating Xiao Baozi, making his limbs tense. His chest burned like fire!
Hmm… what is he going to do?! The sensitive beauty instinctively hoped the embarrassing situation would end quickly. The laughter of the three women vanished at that moment, and the gentle breaths added strength to the alluring atmosphere. The quiet temptation made her heart pound wildly. Her sensitive heartstrings clearly felt the increasingly hot and masculine aura of Xiao Baozi approaching.
Could he really kiss me?! Fear and astonishment welled up in the Empress's heart simultaneously. Do eunuchs also have desires?! Her chaotic thoughts, caught in curiosity, forgot to reprimand, forgot to resist; the beauty even felt a slight impulse to test the waters. She really wanted to know what the little eunuch wanted to do!
A masculine aura wafted over him, and the distance between them gradually disappeared. Xiao Baozi, slowly approaching, used his unique method to melt away the beauty's resistance bit by bit.
Although his desire burned fiercely, Xiao Baozi knew the time was not yet ripe. Even if he could seize the beauty's nectar while she was drunk and confused, the "resentment and sorrow" after the storm was something his naturally passionate nature did not want to see!
Even if he was seducing a beauty, he wanted her to ultimately willingly fall into his arms, to open her heart in the fusion of body and soul, and share joy!
"Your Majesty, Xiao Baozi will undress you!" The eunuch's lips, almost touching hers, lightly brushed against her
lips. He whispered in her ear, his trembling red lips finally not missing the Empress's delicate earlobe, his burning breath like a tidal wave engulfing the beautiful woman's heart.
So he didn't want to kiss her! The Empress, her heartstrings slightly relaxed, felt a strange sense of loss. Could it be that even her priceless body held no appeal for a mere eunuch?!
Still reeling from her turbulent thoughts, she hadn't yet snapped out of her resentment when her thin bodice loosened. The wretched eunuch didn't rip it off immediately; instead, his hands slowly retreated—downwards along the Empress's ample skin!
Beneath the mature beauty's cold, jade-like face lay a fiery figure, no less alluring than the voluptuous princess's, her full breasts revealing two captivating protrusions through her clothing. The half-hidden cleavage further swayed the eunuch's heart, and he used all his strength to restrain his urge to quickly see everything!
Fine wine should be savored slowly, and beautiful flesh should be awaited patiently; passion is all the more alluring when it is subtle and hidden!
Her lustrous skin shimmered and danced like the light of jewels. The soft, yielding flesh of her breasts, swift and powerful, slid beneath her bodice, captivating Xiao Baozi's mind like a swift, terrifying sword
. The rosy areolas, set against a backdrop of shy elegance, highlighted the vibrant red of her nipples, standing proudly against the wind, radiating an endless, mature allure! "Endure, I endure!" The eunuch's throat tightened. His hands moved down, pressing firmly against her jade-like breasts, his thick palms tracing the smooth, firm edges.
The sudden, uncontrolled force created ripples in her breasts, and in that instant, Xiao Baozi's erection, stronger than metal and stone, sprang forth from between his legs with a force that was both earth-shattering and irresistible!
"Ah!" A piercing, tingling sensation shot through Xiao Baozi's palms, penetrating directly into the beauty's heart. The accumulating heat surged into her breasts, causing the Empress's two crimson mounds to swell even larger. An uncontrollable moan finally escaped her lips and flowed into everyone's hearts.
Sister surrenders! The faint moans could not escape the six senses of the princess, who had been transformed by the divine stone. The voluptuous beauty, with a smile, sincerely blessed her sister's correct choice!
Hehe… she had something fun to do! The little princess and the crown princess were of similar mindset. The thought of their painstakingly practiced "ghostly scribbles" finally having a chance to shine made their faces flush red with intense stimulation, their eyes gleaming with playful glints!
Beneath her prominent breasts lay a smooth, flat plain, her flawless skin revealing nothing of the fact that the Empress already had a grown son.
Thinking of this, the little eunuch couldn't help but think of the Crown Prince's pitiful and hateful nature. His little finger, which had been casually swirling in the vortex, unconsciously extended, its slightly bent knuckles swirling in the vortex with an extremely ambiguous suggestive gesture.
"Mmm!" The Empress's tall, jade-like body swelled with a soft, aching sensation, her perfect form trembling involuntarily.
The intense teasing lasted only a moment. Not wanting to press too hard, just as the beauty's heart began to flutter
with embarrassment, the man suddenly quickened his pace, his hands, pressed against her smooth skin, slashing heavily across her back. The half-awake, half-asleep Empress, in her hazy, drunken state, felt a flutter in her heart. Shame and agitation finally rang the alarm bells: What was Xiao Baozi trying to do?! Did he want to embrace her?
This…this…no way! Her sister and Zhi'er were both nearby; how could she, the dignified Empress, allow them to laugh at her! Yes, she had to stop him!
The subtle shift in her heart completely clouded the cold beauty's judgment. Her confused thoughts were even more bizarre. She hadn't considered Qi Kan, hadn't considered propriety, only that others were present, and she couldn't bear the embarrassment of becoming a laughingstock!
Xiao Baozi's plan had succeeded! The drunken Empress, in her dazed state, was forced onto the path of happiness!
"Your Majesty, the game can end now," the young eunuch's calm words jolted the bewildered Empress back to reality. With a slight effort, the knot of her dress loosened at the back, and her poor undergarment, instead of falling to the ground, was brazenly stuffed into his robes.
"Ah!" The Empress opened her beautiful eyes and witnessed the eunuch's inappropriate act. Her scream was deafening, but her face showed only a hint of shyness, a barely perceptible joy and anticipation, without a trace of anger.
"Giggle, giggle..." Li Zhi and Tianyi's cheerful laughter faded into the distance. Taking advantage of his drunkenness, Tianyi dared to tease the Empress as he left, "Sister-in-law, didn't you want Xiaobaozi? I'll lend him to you for a day!" "
Auntie, teach him a lesson!" Li Zhi's teasing voice followed closely behind, carried on the wind.
"Sister, I'll go back to my room by myself today. You're so drunk you can't even walk, so let Xiao Baozi carry you!"
The voluptuous princess gracefully walked away, her beautiful eyes flashing with a playful light. Ever since the last time she was carried back to her room by the eunuch, the empress had teased her several times, half-jokingly and half-seriously. Now she could finally get her revenge!
Heh, heh...
Without the power of the divine stone as a backing, the beautiful empress had drunk less wine than the three women, but the cold beauty was already weak and heartbroken, struggling to move!
"Your Majesty, let Xiao Baozi serve you!" The eunuch, without saying a word and acting first, easily swept the tall empress up in his arms!
"No...no!" The empress, still drunk, tried to bend down to pick up her clothes, but she didn't expect the eunuch to be so impatient and bold.
"Oh!" A hot moan burst from both of their mouths at the same time. Xiao Baozi's "unintentional" large hand actually embraced the beautiful woman's full breasts. His strong fingers, lifting her up, sank deep into her smooth flesh. In addition, his hot palm pressed tightly against the sensitive red spot on her breast. How could such a situation not make the man and woman lose their minds in passion and numbness?
Their steps quickened involuntarily. The beautiful empress, who was nine-tenths drunk, resisted weaker and weaker. Xiao Baozi, who was full of desire, ignored him. His thin figure, carrying an overwhelming heat, smashed open the bedroom door. The luxurious phoenix bed became the final target!

Chapter Sixty: The Third Meeting of the Royal Lady (9)
"Xiao Baozi, you...you...you can't do this!" The beautiful and charming, flustered and helpless cold beauty was no longer the majestic empress. She was shy and charming, coy and reluctant. She was just an ordinary woman with surging emotions!
What should have been a stern rebuke turned into a weak plea. Years of loneliness had extinguished all resistance from the noble empress, and a surging, resentful aura erupted like a volcano!
Whatever! She was a woman too, so why didn't she receive the affection and care she deserved?! Anyway, Xiao Baozi was just a man who wasn't a man, so what was wrong with indulging herself a little?!
Enveloped in a thick haze of intoxication, the beautiful empress's open eyes slowly closed once more, her shyness tinged with anticipation and impulsiveness.
Whoosh! An invisible wind stirred the air, and an ambiguous feeling, seemingly created out of thin air, crossed and lingered in the void along a mysterious trajectory.
The phoenix bed, its pink gauze fluttering, appeared before Bao Er Ye in the blink of an eye. The wicked man's large hand, deep within her jade-like breasts, slid down and pulled, giving the beautiful empress another rough rub the bed as she fell back onto it!
Ah! Was it coming?! Her heart burned with anticipation, and a shy blush stirred her imagination, making her start to daydream: How would Xiao Baozi conduct his charade with her?!
"Your Majesty, this humble servant takes his leave!" Each word, uttered with great effort, escaped his lips. The reluctance in Xiao Baozi's eyes made his legs feel as heavy as a thousand pounds. As he walked, his burning gaze lingered on the beauty
's full breasts, smooth legs, and the alluring protrusions barely concealed by her undergarment. "Ah!" The beautiful Empress could no longer contain her disappointment and resentment. A gasp of surprise escaped her lips, her heart filled with a mixture of relief at the eunuch's propriety and a surge of shame and anger. Did this little eunuch also have no interest in her?!
Good heavens! What was she thinking?! Only after Xiao Baozi had left the room did the anger in the beauty's eyes finally dissipate in a flash of insight. How shameful!
A thousand thoughts swirled within her, and the beautiful Empress forcefully suppressed her turbulent emotions. She was the Empress of a nation; how could she intentionally seduce a little eunuch?! Besides, eunuchs weren't men; naturally, they lacked male urges! Unless she actively asked him to serve her… Ah! Why did she think like that again?! Oh no, had she gone mad?!
The cold beauty spent the entire night sleepless, her mind in turmoil. The well-mannered eunuch was also on his way, beating his chest in deep regret!
“Sigh!” A sigh that pierced the earth was incredibly dejected. Bao Er Ye had never hated the Empress's strange illness as much as he did now. To follow the treatment methods recorded in the Taoist scriptures, Bao Er Ye dared not act rashly before fully arousing the beauty's passion; moreover, he needed the little princess and the Crown Princess to draw talismans for assistance. Not wanting to miss the best opportunity for treatment, he had no choice but to reluctantly give up, watching helplessly as the peerless beauty was half-naked and enjoyed by her former master!
“Ah—sigh!” After a roar, another sigh followed, the thin Bao Er Ye even more listless. He chuckled to himself, secretly amused, "Looks like I still have my moments of being a gentleman, heh, heh... But why is being a gentleman so unbearable?! Damn it!"
"Huff..." Little Baozi exhaled heavily, but he couldn't
shake the image of her firm, jade-like breasts, her rosy nipples, and the few strands of alluring grass that had sneaked out between her legs flashing through his mind. "Waaah... I can't take it anymore!" Her tall figure, her black hair billowing in the invisible flames, her eyes flashing with fire, roared and transformed into a whirlwind, blowing into the Heavenly Will Palace.
The moon hid and the sun rose, a new day leisurely arriving amidst vibrant energy.
The daily card game, indispensable, was abruptly halted by an unexpected incident—the Empress had fallen ill!
Even the renowned physicians of the Imperial Hospital, after diagnosing her, were at a loss. Their experience wasn't inability to diagnose the illness, but rather inability to find the right remedy!
A heart ailment requires a heart remedy! Facing the Empress, who reigned supreme over the world... Fearing for their lives, the imperial physicians proceeded with extreme caution, daring not to inquire about the cause of the Empress's illness. They could only offer soothing medications to alleviate her symptoms. The
anxious Princess Consort, though not a doctor, vaguely guessed what was going on. She spoke softly to her sister, who was leaning against a cushion, "Sister, tell me what's on your mind. Maybe I can help!"
"I...I'm fine!" The Empress, her face pale, hesitated, her heart fluttering slightly, but ultimately couldn't break through her defenses. Though they were sisters, she still found it difficult to speak of such a shameful matter!
Meanwhile, the Crown Princess and the little princess, who had just visited the Empress, also surrounded the eunuch in soft voices.
"You brat! What did you do to your sister-in-law? You've made her so pitiful!" The little princess's suspicious gaze was piercing, her resentful expression as resolute as a champion of justice.
“Little Baozi, how could Auntie be sick? This isn’t some strange illness!” The Crown Princess’s voice was much gentler, but the questioning in her eyes was even stronger!
“My two wives, I’m innocent!” The little eunuch couldn’t help but raise his hands in surrender, but his playful expression revealed a sincere sincerity. “I swear I didn’t do anything to Her Majesty the Empress last night!”
“Ah—I understand!” The clever little princess suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up. The girl, suddenly enlightened, exclaimed, “It’s because you, you brat, didn’t do anything that she fell ill!”
“Yes, that’s very possible!” The Crown Princess was also a beautiful and clever woman. Her quick thinking, combined with her own experience, made her blurt out without any shyness, “If Little Baozi had done something to Auntie, she wouldn’t be sick. She would be radiant and full of energy!”
Ugh… So that’s where my credibility comes from! Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, the guy couldn’t help but roll his eyes and responded with a silly “heh, heh” laugh.
"Little Baozi, how can you be so useless?!" Li Zhi's wild nature suddenly erupted, and she angrily accused him, "You can't even handle such a small matter, you're really useless! You would give up such a beautiful and charming aunt, are you sick?"
"Hehe... I think he's possessed!" The little princess, who knew her lover's character well, laughed and then complained loudly, "You brat, why don't you let your sister-in-law be as happy as the queen?!"
Out of concern for the empress, the two girls unconsciously abandoned their girlish jealousy. They would rather have another person share their lover than see the empress in her current pitiful state! However, if Little Baozi had really eaten the empress last night, the two girls would probably still be as coquettish as ever, and would definitely be condemning the big lecher!
Alas! Women, women, complicated women! Men, you will never truly understand a woman's heart!
"Let's go see our aunt!" Li Zhi grabbed Little Baozi and rushed towards the Phoenix Palace without saying another word. The playful little princess, genuinely eager to help, pushed the eunuch along. The eunuch appeared reluctant, but inwardly he was chuckling.
"Heh, heh... ha, ha... what more could a man ask for?!"
"Sister, don't worry, I won't laugh at you!" Seeing the Empress's prolonged silence, the clever princess's eyes flashed with understanding. She gently grasped her sister's wrist, subtly tightening her grip, using sisterly affection to give the Empress courage.
"Sister, you... you mustn't force me!" The Empress's defenses were weakening, but her courage was still insufficient. The sickly beauty, already possessing a cold elegance, now had a touch of delicate beauty.
"Sister, even without you saying it, I've guessed a bit," the princess's gentle words seemed like a sudden, sharp sword piercing the Empress's heart. The voluptuous beauty steeled her resolve, biting her lip slightly, and whispered in her ear, "Actually...
actually, I've already... done that with Xiao Baozi!"
"Ah!" The half-truth, half-revealed truth made the beautiful Empress's phoenix eyes widen in disbelief! Although she had long harbored suspicions, she hadn't expected the truth to be even more shocking than she anticipated. Incredulous, she asked blankly, "You...
you mean you've already...been intimate with him?!"
"Yes!" Because of her sister's strange illness, the dignified princess nodded vigorously, but the blush on her full face was uncontrollable, as brilliant and dazzling as a sunset.
Silence, an unexpected silence. The stunned and speechless empress and the blushing princess simultaneously fell into a deep stillness, their hearts in turmoil, lost in thought.
"Sister, there's something I must tell you," the princess said, her words breaking the heavy atmosphere between them. This also aroused the empress's instinctive curiosity.
"What is it? Tell me!" Having experienced the intrigues of the inner palace, the empress's mind was not to be underestimated. The beautiful woman instinctively knew that her sister's words were not false, and her fluctuating heart tightened involuntarily. She had a vague premonition that it must be related to Xiao Baozi and herself.
"Actually, besides having fun, we play cards to get Xiao Baozi closer to you!" The princess's words were indeed earth-shattering, forcefully pulling up the thoughts that the empress had deliberately ignored deep inside. Then, her tone changed, revealing a strong joy and a hint of admiration as she said, "Xiao Baozi is no ordinary person. By chance, he saw the cure for illness in a mysterious Taoist book, and by divine arrangement, he learned about your strange illness, sister. It was through these two coincidences that Tianyi and I went to such lengths to arrange this, just so that you can open your heart and accept treatment!"
"Ah—" The Empress couldn't help but nod in agreement with the young eunuch's extraordinary abilities, but she was utterly astonished that he could also cure strange illnesses. Before her exclamation could even finish, she pressed on, "The expert you mentioned, sister, is that—Xiao Baozi?!"
"Yes!" The charming Princess nodded heavily, expressing her confidence. She held her sister's hand tightly and said, "Just trust me this time. I wouldn't have arranged it this way if it weren't foolproof!"
"Hmm..." Although her sister's words were not explicitly stated, the elegant Empress understood perfectly. Her heartbroken state was once again clouded with embarrassment, and she wished she could disappear into the ground!
It turned out that her sister had seen everything. Her confusion and embarrassment would likely become a laughingstock for the rest of her life!
Thinking of this, the beautiful queen finally let her feminine nature take over, blaming all the blame and resentment on the little eunuch. The beauty, lost in self-pity and self-reproach, secretly cursed, "You damned little Bao, you stinking eunuch, it's all your fault!"
"As for why little Bao failed to please you last night, it's because..." After a thousand words, the princess finally returned to the previous topic, explaining hastily, but was interrupted by the incredibly shy and embarrassed queen's uncontrollable cry of embarrassment!
"No...don't say anymore!" The middle-aged beauty covered her ears like a little girl. After the princess stopped abruptly,
the empress, whose crystal-clear face seemed to be dripping blood, couldn't suppress her strong instinct for comfort. She asked awkwardly, her voice revealing a hint of joy and relief, "Then...then...what exactly is it..." Seeing her sister's intermittent and distressed state, the princess kindly took over the conversation with a smile, "Xiao Baozi is trying to cure his illness. The evil disease you have requires the greatest cooperation of your body and mind..."
Although she knew she had a rare and strange disease, upon hearing such a shameful and bizarre treatment method, the empress still instinctively asked, "Isn't there any other way?!"
"No!" A clear voice came from the doorway. Two young girls, like stars surrounding the moon, accompanied the culprit into the two women's view. Xiao Baozi, no longer hiding his figure, was still thin and frail, but his invisible aura was already wild and bold, with a majestic bearing!
"You...you also know the details?" The empress asked, perhaps to avoid the burning gaze of the little eunuch.
Still trying to hide her wildly beating heart, she pointed at the two girls with a hint of reproach, "You two little brats are teasing me too!"
"Auntie, Zhi'er is only doing this for your own good. I even learned to draw those weird talismans for you!" Li Zhi feigned grievance and acted coquettishly, rushing to the Empress's side and protesting.
"Sister-in-law, you don't need to thank me so quickly, hee hee..." As the saying goes, one is influenced by one's company, and the little princess had learned to be shameless by following the rogue. Amidst the playful laughter, she shook her head smugly, "Wait until I use my supernatural powers to cure your strange illness, then you can thank me!"
The two girls' antics subtly dissolved the beauty's embarrassment. Under the onslaught of the three girls' laughter, the Empress's heart gradually crumbled, finally turning to dust under the little eunuch's burning, strange gaze, disappearing with the increasingly hot wind.
"Little Baozi, can you really cure my strange illness? How did I get this illness?" Half out of curiosity, and half to save face before the three women, the Empress questioned the young eunuch with a mixture of truth and falsehood. But the shyness in her eyes and the weakness in her voice completely destroyed any semblance of authority.
"Your Majesty, I absolutely..." the young eunuch bowed and explained in detail, naturally adding a sharp critique of the whirlwind monk, concluding with a meaningful statement: "For Your Majesty's safety, I would go through fire and water, even die a thousand deaths!"
"Sister, there's no time like the present, let's start the treatment now!" Seeing that the Empress's heartache had been cured without medicine, the Princess naturally seized this golden opportunity.
So that's how it is! The beautiful Empress's heart completely settled. Although there were still some questions about Little Baozi's words, such as why a highly skilled person would become a eunuch, at this moment, the beautiful woman, her heart pounding, had no time to ponder these things!
"Auntie, Second Auntie is right, please trust us this once!" Li Zhi shook the Empress's arm vigorously, causing the Empress's delicate body to sway repeatedly, as if she sincerely wanted to wake her up!
Seeing that Tianyi seemed to be about to take action as well, the beauty, whose defenses had been broken, quickly begged for mercy: "Alright, alright... Zhi'er, stop shaking, Auntie will agree!"
"Yay!" The cheers of the two beautiful girls pierced the sky, and the Princess's heartfelt laughter was also warm. Her long efforts had finally paid off, and the two girls, thinking that they would have their moment to shine, naturally blushed and were extremely excited!
A mysterious barrier quietly enveloped the entire Phoenix Palace space, and the powerful magician reduced the chance of external factors interfering with the healing to zero!
In the bedroom space detached from reality, in order to erase the Empress's shyness, the Princess, the Crown Princess, and the little princess took the initiative to undress, their colorful clothes fluttering and their boundless courage reflecting into the beautiful Empress's heart.
"Your Majesty, would you like me to undress you?" This unusual intimacy kept Xiao Baozi's most important secret hidden. At this moment, he was still a little eunuch—a little eunuch with extraordinary abilities!
"Ah, no…no need, I can do it myself!" The Empress took a deep breath, and amidst the fragrant aroma of orchids, her dignified and noble bearing miraculously returned to its former elegance. To make up for her earlier lapse in composure, she deliberately "bullied" Xiao Baozi, saying, "Come, take off my boots!"
"Hehe…" The Princess's gentle laughter ushered in a passionate scene. "Sister, you're bedridden and not wearing boots, how can Xiao Baozi take them off?!"
Although there was no wine to aid them, the four women, including the Empress, still presented their beautiful bodies to Xiao Baozi one by one. Even the Empress's last garments, with the help of the impatient little princess, were quickly removed from her bedside.
Wow…Xiao Baozi saw those few unruly strands of hair between the beauty's tightly closed legs!
"Hmph! You big pervert, what are you looking at?!" At this crucial moment, Li Zhi and Tianyi's magnanimity vanished again. She glared at the dazed little eunuch with displeasure and urged him coquettishly, "Hurry up and cast the spell!"
"There'll be plenty of time later, let's begin!" The princess's words were naturally gentle, but a hint of sourness was unavoidable!
This was a woman's nature; the magical world of the mind could find a seamless path between the narrowness of her nature and the entanglement of her feelings, without any abruptness or ugliness, only wonderful pleasure!
A blush had already spread across the empress's delicate body. The beauty, her jade face buried in the soft pillow, subconsciously chose to ignore it. The three women's teasing did not lower their voices. Although the one being teased was Xiao Baozi, the one who was truly embarrassed by the teasing was the noble empress.
Chapter 61 The Three Meetings of the Royal Princess (10)
A colorful rosy cloud suddenly appeared, and amidst the flashing of countless rays of light, a man and four women were bathed in a mysterious fairyland. At this critical moment, Xiao Baozi dared not be careless in the slightest. After all, the Empress's strange illness was recorded in the Daoist scriptures as quite terrifying, and the slightest mistake would trigger the power of the disease demon!
The Tongtian magic solidified the invisible aura, and two magic-transformed divine pens slowly flew to the little princess and the Crown Princess!
The scene that had appeared in their minds a thousand times finally became a reality. The two girls were extremely excited and waved the divine pens, "scribbling" to open this unique spring drama!
Li Zhi was on the left, and Tianyi was on the right. The two divine pens were red and black. Red represented the strength of Yang, and black represented the softness of Yin. The two forces of the origin of heaven and earth transformed into mysterious traces that covered the Empress's graceful body!
The "scribbling" that was originally slightly surprising was reflected on the tall and beautiful figure of the beauty. At this moment, it seemed to enhance the enchanting and captivating beauty!
After the two assistants finished their work in one go, the "expert" Xiao Baozi, who had been waiting attentively, slowly pounced on the Empress with his palm transformed into Yin and Yang and accompanied by colorful clouds. His left palm was the sun, displaying the raging fire, while his right palm was the moon, revealing the solidity of ice. It complemented the colorful divine power that filled the beauty's mind and devoured the terrifying innate demonic power bit by bit!
The mysterious images dispelled the three women's previous doubts. The little princess nudged Li Zhi with her elbow and said, "Hey, it seems that brat wasn't lying. I've never seen anything like this before!"
"Shh!" Before the Crown Princess could agree, the mature princess, with her keen mind, fearing to disturb Master Baozi's spellcasting, quickly raised her finger to make a shushing gesture.
Just as the Taoist scriptures recorded, although the demonic power was sealed by the talisman and had nowhere to escape, it wandered and roamed throughout the beauty's body, stubbornly and tenaciously putting up a powerful resistance!
"Ah!" Sometimes as hot as fire, sometimes as cold as an ice cellar, the ever-changing sensations completely extinguished all the empress's romantic thoughts, and an uncontrollable cry of pain burst from her mouth.
"Your Majesty, don't be afraid! Relax your mind and soothe your nerves!" The deep voice carried a hint of seduction within its solemnity. The well-prepared Master Baozi launched the second stage of his passionate methods.
His large hands, sometimes light, sometimes heavy, began to slowly roam along the beautiful, alluring curves of the woman. Her delicate earlobes trembled slightly between his fingers, her full, fragrant shoulders blushed alluringly with the movement of his palm, and her smooth, bare back shimmered with a jewel-like luster. The eunuch
's kisses, seemingly everywhere, followed his hand like raindrops! "Ah!" The empress's moan subtly changed, and the woman's heart began to flutter with excitement. Her heart, once again pounding, was lost in a daze. Ambiguous feelings drew forth a shy question: What was Xiao Baozi doing?! Last night he had ignored her. But today, in front of her sisters… was he really treating her?! His
passionate fingers traced patterns on the woman's sensitive waist. Her soft, slender waist was even more delicate and alluring than a young girl's. The mature woman's allure combined with the youthful tenderness—such charm was irresistible to most! Especially not to the number one lecher in the three realms!
Ah! The little eunuch's inner roar was earth-shattering, yet his hands moved with utmost gentleness and slowness. His hand, gently caressing the beauty's delicate ribs, moved upwards, until her breasts, hidden by her prone position, became his burning target!
"Your Majesty, open your heart and enjoy!" His voice was hoarse and uneven. Suppressing his urges, the eunuch's fingers moved with practiced skill, determined to ignite the beauty's passion, half-heartedly, half-selfishly sending her to the peak of desire, to the depths of pleasure!
Ugh… he told him to enjoy! Good heavens. Why couldn't he feel anger?! Instead, he obediently raised his body, letting his warm hands completely grasp her soft, swollen breasts, and… and… he was going so far as to pinch and rub her nipples with his fingers!
The fire in the little eunuch's eyes could no longer be contained; an invisible flame ignited the atmosphere in the room. The three women, feeling intensely uncomfortable amidst the passionate heat, exchanged a knowing smile and fled. He no longer had the mind to monitor the lecherous wolf!
Whatever! Let the bad boy do whatever he wants; what's meant to happen will happen, so why should he act like a villain?! Thinking this, the three royal ladies, before leaving, thoughtfully closed the door tightly. They even kindly instructed the maids and eunuchs not to approach.
Little Baozi had no time to respond to his three lovers' understanding; grateful, he became even more unrestrained, his hands moving up and down simultaneously, creating waves of flesh and ripples on his hips. The interplay was utterly intoxicating!
Below her slender waist, the curves suddenly expanded, the mature woman's unique fullness making Little Baozi's fingers feel a soft, slippery sensation penetrating his heart. A delicate fragrance pierced his soul, and amidst the overwhelming heat, his mind trembled, almost forgetting his heavy responsibility!
"Your Majesty, the Princess and the others have gone out," the wicked young man's large hand first slid down her jade-like legs, then returned to the forbidden area. He could have easily broken through, but instead insisted on the beauty's complete surrender, whispering hotly in her ear, "Come on, open your legs a little!"
"Ah! This wicked fellow, you little devil!" The Empress's heart trembled with shyness, but the beauty, whose passion had already begun to ignite, showed no sign of shame or anger. Her tightly closed legs didn't open; instead, they instinctively tightened even more!
A small difficulty was no match for the soon-to-be-out-of-control eunuch. His large hand tightened forcefully, his fingers, which had been ravaging her breasts, became even more passionate. His fiery red tongue first climbed along her neck to her cheek, then inching closer to her turned lips.
"Oh!" A piercing tingling and aching sensation shook the beauty's heart. Long-dormant resentment finally surged forth, and her uncontrollable legs tensed instantly before helplessly opening slightly!
Passion began to ignite, desire surged in her heart, countless threads of passion mingled with mysterious magic, transforming into a wondrous fire that burned away the scattered and fleeing demonic forces!
"Ah—" Xiao Baozi struggled to suppress the turmoil within him, his already naked member no longer restrained, his fiery body swaying in the air, his imposing masculine form pressing down on the Empress's bare back like Mount Tai.
"Oh!" The exquisite stimulation of skin-to-skin contact caused the noble woman to moan with satisfaction. Passion had reached a point where she could neither turn back nor wanted to. The beautiful Empress, lying prone on the bed, did not see Xiao Baozi's change, and even if she had, she probably wouldn't have had the time or inclination to gasp in surprise!
His free hand finally broke through her legs amidst her desperate cries!
"Ah…" The Empress's hands, in a state of nervous helplessness, pulled away the covers, tightly clutching the silk quilt, her pearly teeth involuntarily biting her lower lip. Her sexy and alluring charm made Xiao Baozi's eyes gleam like gold, his hands like dragons.
So this is how eunuchs get intimate! Surrounded by a long-awaited bliss, the beautiful Empress couldn't help but answer the question that had been swirling in her mind for so long. The volcano of desire and ambiguous feelings merged perfectly. At this moment, the Empress only wanted to abandon everything and enjoy the caresses, which, though not reaching the soul, were still moving!
The reality was perfect; the Empress's only regret would not occur. The fake eunuch's coordinated caresses were like a mysterious torch, and the volcano of the beauty's desire roared and surged, releasing all the passion that the beautiful Empress had accumulated over the years.
The time was ripe, and the most important, the most crucial moment had finally arrived.
Fragrant fingers suddenly left her body, and before the Empress could express her emptiness and loneliness, the enormous "fingers" suddenly filled her completely!
"Ah...oh..." A scream that shook the heavens and earth burst forth. If it weren't for the mysterious barrier, the entire palace would probably have been awakened by this earth-shattering cry!
How could this be?! This isn't a finger! What is Xiao Baozi using to do this to himself?! The intelligent woman made a definite judgment without much thought. Her heart, already a married woman, skipped a beat like a thunderbolt.
Could it be…no…possible…?
A thousand questions tugged at her delicate hand, which reached downwards. Driven by a desperate search for the truth, she disregarded everything, her anxiety mingled with an overwhelming anticipation. Her heart trembled wildly as she suddenly gripped it, swiftly seizing the hot, foreign object!
Ah! It was true! Good heavens! She, the mother of the nation, the Empress, had been seduced by a man!
A tidal wave of emotion instantly overwhelmed the Empress's heart. First came astonishment, then overwhelming joy, an endless, tingling sensation, influenced by her thoughts, permeating her very being!
"Ah!" Her passionate hand gripped tightly. The small penis, already hot, surged even more intensely, the electric-like pleasure radiating from her fingertips.
Passion reached its zenith, the flames of desire raging and spreading relentlessly. The soaring flames relentlessly searched for the cunning demonic power.
"Ah... Little Baozi... Light... Heavy..." Cries of pleasure, incoherent and lost in a sea of desire, filled the beautiful woman's eyes with a hazy, dreamlike quality. Her lips, as delicate as flowers, parted in a bloom, her mind blank, unable to retain anything of the world. At this moment, only the powerful thrusts could ignite beautiful sparks; wild entry and exit were the most beautiful language!
Rumble... The subway to spring has arrived!
A melodious, heavenly sound lingers. The alluring moans subtly rekindled the withering life force of the beautiful queen. In boundless joy and love, the resentful, lonely woman vanished, the pitiful queen disappeared without a trace. Her desire for death was reduced to ashes by the boundless flames of passion. Only the beautiful woman and the virile man remained, entwined in bed, room, and on the table... locked in a life-or-death struggle, inseparable even in death!
A hazy halo enveloped the couple in their passionate embrace, their multicolored radiance constantly blazing amidst their tumultuous lovemaking!
After countless screams of surprise from the beautiful queen, the unrestrained Bao Er Ye, propelled by the waves of passion, soared to the peak of desire!
"Ah!" With a thunderous roar, Bao Er Ye, unable to resist the tingling, throbbing sensation from head to toe, imprinted his indelible mark upon the noble phoenix body!
In the instant the wind ceased and the shadows vanished, the multicolored radiance receded into her body like a surging tide. The limp beauty, now utterly satisfied, drifted into a sweet sleep, quietly experiencing the mysterious and subtle changes in her dreams, a further sublimation of body and soul!
The bitter threads of love entwined into a cocoon, and fate's favor finally allowed the cold beauty to transform into a butterfly. In this fusion of spirit and desire, not only were all evils erased, but an eternal youth and an undying spirit were also forged!
Having accomplished his mission, the mischievous boy wouldn't run away. Though still brimming with energy and his Pokémon still proudly displayed, his inherently amorous nature prevented him from rushing to the Queen and the others' bedroom. After a tender kiss, he held his beloved close, closing his eyes to rest, savoring the peaceful and warm moment. Time
passed swiftly, and the beautiful Queen had never slept so contentedly in years. The moment the internal anomaly subsided, the beautiful woman, lost in her fantasies, awoke from her reverie.
Was it all… a dream? The overwhelming perfection made the Queen almost disbelieve. Her heart pounded with anxiety, her long eyelids trembled rapidly, but she couldn't bring herself to open her beautiful eyes, cautiously fearing that everything would vanish the moment she opened them!
What must be faced must be faced! After a long period of hesitation, the stunning beauty steeled her resolve and, with a sudden burst of determination, opened her beautiful eyes!
"Ah!" A scream pierced her throat. Reality had indeed changed. A handsome yet unfamiliar face entered her vision. After an initial moment of astonishment, she cried out in utter surprise and fear!
"Slap!" A loud slap echoed as the Empress's jade-like body shrank tightly into the covers. She frantically searched for her clothes.
The sudden turn of events left her no time to murmur. Although the man she vaguely recognized was quite handsome, she longed to see the thin, ordinary eunuch even more!
"Ouch!" The half-asleep man had been slapped for no reason. Retribution, absolutely retribution! Perhaps this was a special arrangement by heaven. Who told him to have such wicked intentions and lure the beautiful Empress into his arms?! But if one could have such exquisite pleasure, no one in the world wouldn't wish for this kind of retribution to come! " Hey, hey...
" After their intimate embrace, the once-proud and upright man would no longer act like a servile eunuch, and his form of address subtly changed.
"Who are you?!" Perhaps it was the familiar aura of Master Bao that had the effect. Although the beautiful Empress questioned him sharply, her bewildered eyes softened considerably. The flustered beauty subconsciously looked around and asked, "Where's Little Bao?! What did you do to him?!"
A bitter smile returned to Bao Yu's lips. He couldn't believe that the dignified Master Bao was inferior to a mere eunuch. Helpless, he could only shriek in Little Bao's tone, "Your Majesty, Little Bao has gone to heaven to enjoy himself!"
"Ah! You...you..." The unforgettable tone made the Empress's beautiful eyes widen instantly. Her fingers, pointing at the handsome man, trailed off under his burning gaze. A sudden flash of inspiration struck the beautiful Empress, who exclaimed in surprise, "You're Xiao Baozi?!"
"No, you're not Xiao Baozi!" The middle-aged beauty, her mind still reeling, immediately denied it, her regal aura radiating from her. Her panic quickly transformed into her usual composure and dignity. "I remember now, you're Jia Baoyu, the second young master of the Jia family!"
"Good sister, it is indeed your younger brother!" The mischievous boy, seeing that the beautiful woman had recognized him after only a brief encounter, couldn't help but be excited and smug, bowing respectfully.
"How dare you! You, Jia Baoyu, dare to infiltrate the palace with ill intentions!" Before Baoyu could finish speaking, the stunning Empress suddenly turned ruthless, pointing a finger at Baoyu's face and rebuking him sharply, her coldness revealing her usual Empressly demeanor. "I will exterminate your entire clan, wipe out your whole family!"
"Ha, ha..." Such a terrifying imperial decree had no effect on the rogue. Having already grasped the beauty's heart, the man responded nonchalantly, "Fine! But my sister is also family. Are you going to kill yourself too?!"
"Outrageous!" The beautiful empress instinctively stood up in anger, but unexpectedly, her still-marked breasts had already spilled out of her covering, the trembling waves incredibly alluring. "How dare you! Bow down and confess your sins!"
"Yes, I know my sins!" Bao Erye obediently bowed his head, but the burning desire in his eyes was intense. "I will apologize to Your Majesty immediately!"
"Ah... what are you doing?" The high and mighty Empress was caught off guard and pinned to the bed by the rascal. Although she resisted fiercely, her voice remained low. "Ah! Let go, are you out of your mind! I...
I want... ah!"
Her screams were abruptly cut off. After a passionate kiss, the eunuch teased her relentlessly, "Your Majesty, what do you want? To execute my whole family, or to chop off my head?" "
Hmph!" With a disgruntled pout, her smooth jade wrists transformed into two spring vines, wrapping around her. This unique pleasure had already aroused the Empress's heart. "I'm going to 'eat' you!"
"Oh!" With a forceful thrust from Bao Er Ye, the passion vanished once more. Pure lovemaking, intense and passionate, fearless and unrestrained, was far more intoxicating than before!
The spring breeze was gentle, the spring scenery boundless. Bao Er Ye's past fantasies had become reality!
The time to return to the Jia family was approaching. The farewell of the four royal women was filled with passion and tender affection!
The Empress and Xiao Baozi became acquainted through a game. At the unexpectedly enthusiastic suggestion of the cold beauty, the four royal women unanimously agreed to use the game as a farewell feast!
The enchanting card game was endlessly entertaining; the winner's moans rose and fell, melodious and lingering, composing a maddening love song.
Each round's winner would prop themselves up on the table with their buttocks raised high, while Xiao Baozi would stand behind them, showering them with passionate caresses as a reward; the other three women would assist by pushing and nudging them, softly counting amidst the fiery passion!
Xiao Baozi, accompanied by Tian Chang, finally left the palace. The four women, limp as water, collectively slept peacefully in the Phoenix Palace, their bodies tingling with a numbing, aching pleasure, only able to bid farewell to their beloved in their dreams!
"Heh, heh..." Long after the carriage had traveled, Xiao Baozi inside was still lingering in the boundless bliss of passion, savoring the experience.
The painstaking game not only won him the beauty's heart but also brought him unexpected gains. The whirlwind demon monk painstakingly transformed the noble aura of the destined goddess into innate demonic power, only to have it easily subdued by Bao Erye's chaotic divine power, ultimately benefiting the lecherous rogue who gained immense magical power!
"Ah!" A silent roar pierced the heavens and earth in his mind, the surging power filling Bao Erye with boundless pride, displaying an invincible charisma that made him the most powerful in the world!
Fate's favor allowed him to take another giant step forward on the path to sainthood! The day he could once again wield the golden cudgel was not far off, and the moving moment of meeting the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms was also imminent!
"What?! You said Miss Bao left the capital with Ying'er!" Before Bao Erye could even sit down at home, the old manager of the Red Mansion's main store came knocking with a worried expression!
"Your Excellency, what I said is absolutely true. This is a note from Ying'er. Please take a look!" The old shopkeeper respectfully handed the small note he kept close to his body to the exceptionally wise Bao Yu.
As the saying goes, old age brings wisdom, and it's certainly true. Although the old shopkeeper didn't understand the intricacies of the matter, he guessed it must be related to matters of the heart. He deeply understood Bao Yu's extraordinary nature and was naturally happy to see Baochai and Baoyu fall in love and marry. That's why he went to such lengths, waiting day and night for news of his master!
What to do? After seeing the old shopkeeper off, Baoyu was caught in a dilemma. Zhao Quan's conspiracy was about to unfold, and although everything was under his control, what if something happened to him while he was away?!
But ignoring Baochai's situation and letting this beautiful woman shed tears outside was something his sentimental nature couldn't bear! Like choosing between power and beauty, the precarious situation had even plunged the usually carefree Baoyu into confusion and distress.
Alas! It's difficult, a real dilemma! If something were to happen to Baochai outside, he, Baoyu, would probably be devastated!
Annoying, so annoying! Feeling depressed, he subconsciously headed towards the garden; perhaps only the natural breeze and the delicate fragrance of flowers could wash away his troubles! Alas
! Another heavy sigh escaped Baoyu's lips. Wandering among the exotic flowers and plants, he still hadn't found the answer. From the old shopkeeper's solemn narration, the astute Baoyu could easily deduce a definite guess—Baochai must have discovered the true identity of "Shiyu" from the slightest clues, and the ever-proud beauty must have left home in a huff, displeased with his teasing!
Lost in thought, Baoyu walked into the withered peach grove. Thinking of Baochai's feelings, he was moved by the scene, and a sense of profound melancholy arose within him. Was life, like these peach blossoms, ultimately returning to the mundane dust after its glorious bloom?
A winding stream meandered through the grove, its clear waters shimmering in the sunlight. Having entered this strange world, Master Bao strolled leisurely along the current, finally standing by the stream and unable to help but sigh to the heavens, "Flowers, oh flowers, is this your fate, or are you forced into this situation?! Fine, today we are destined to meet, so I will send you on your way, and let you see this vast new world!"
Chapter Sixty-Two: Xi Zi's Heart in Turmoil
. With a thought, her boundless magical power flowed forth, her tall figure instantly unleashing countless palm strikes. Her wind-summoning magic caused the peach grove to swirl, and a sudden gust of wind howled, swirling up peach blossoms from the ground. The
lingering fragrance and fallen petals danced in the air, a dazzling display of fragrance and blossoms! The petals, dancing gracefully in the air, leaped in orderly fashion, invisible magic transforming into countless threads that gently guided the peach blossoms onto the clear stream's surface, creating endless ripples. Thousands of petals cheered and spun joyfully on the water's surface, carrying hope into the distance, vibrant with life as they drifted away!
"The fallen flowers yearn to be buried by the flowing water, but the flowing water is heartless in its love for the fallen flowers!" With a deep and lingering sigh, Bao Yu, deeply moved, looked up and exhaled his last breath. He was the extraordinary "fake" Bao Yu; how could he be a vulgar person caught up in the busy world?!
The flowing water was heartless, but Bao Yu saw his own passionate self reflected in its surface. His love and concern for the beauty surpassed everything else in the world. Having made up his mind, his heavy steps suddenly became light and powerful; his passionate nature ultimately won a decisive victory. "
Baochai, I'm coming!"
His resolute figure turned gracefully, his long robes billowing with the movement, an invisible aura rising from the sky with a heroic spirit, the surging air unable to stop his tall figure gradually receding into the distance.
Acting on impulse and following his heart, Bao Yu's emotions triumphed over reason. As he hurried away, he thought of the nuns, Jingxu and her disciples, who had been waiting for him at the Water Moon Nunnery for almost half a year. Although there had been constant mishaps, he couldn't erase the lingering guilt of his unfaithful love.
It was time to bring the three women to the Red Mansion. Since it was on the way anyway, why not make it convenient? Thinking this, Bao Yu quickened his pace, his heart already soaring to the Water Moon Nunnery he so fondly remembered—the place where he and Sister Feng had truly fallen in love in a single night!
"Alas!" A deep, long sigh escaped his lips. This time, it wasn't a forced lament from Bao Yu. Just as Bao Yu's figure emerged from the peach grove, from the depths of the trees, a graceful, incomparably beautiful figure slowly emerged. The ethereal and beautiful Xi Shi, a reincarnation of the legendary beauty, watched intently as Bao Yu's last garment disappeared into her deep, beautiful eyes. But the affectionate heart within her lingered for a long time!
"I searched for him a thousand times in the crowd, then suddenly turning around, I found him where the lights were dim!" The stunningly beautiful and talented Daiyu, standing where Baoyu had just stood, gazed down at the lingering peach blossoms, her eyes filled with tears, and couldn't help but softly recite the timeless lines that inexplicably moved her!
The independent, even somewhat aloof Daiyu couldn't help but wave her hand as if trying to grasp the fleeting petals of happiness chasing the water; the deeply moved young woman, having witnessed Baoyu's actions, was only momentarily astonished by his extraordinary abilities, but her joy at the sight of the peach blossoms left a lasting impression! In the
dead of night, she would often sigh and lament, regretting that she had never met a kindred spirit in this life! So, so, so… her kindred spirit was right beside her! The long-awaited encounter had so easily fallen from the sky. How could this not move the young woman, her heart pounding, to tears of emotion?
Why him?! How could it be him?! Daiyu's hazy gaze followed the peach blossoms, her chaotic thoughts racing away. How could the one she had been waiting for be Baoyu?!
Baoyu wasn't bad, but "womanizer" was the fair lady's undisputed assessment of him, which was the real reason why Daiyu had been intentionally or unintentionally distancing herself from him for so long!
Her congenital yin-related illness prevented the young girl from having a magnanimous heart. Although she possessed an unwavering desire for true love, she was unwilling to fall for a philandering playboy!
The thought of him being away from her and entangled with other women, like Xi Shi, filled her with melancholy and hidden pain. This narrow-mindedness, both innate and acquired, inevitably plunged the young girl into a battle between heaven and man.
What to do? The flickering thoughts were hard to erase from her mind; on one hand, her budding feelings couldn't be closed, and on the other, her unyielding resolve stood in stark contrast. Long-standing doubts had reached an irreconcilable point, resentment accumulating, yet the young girl's suffering remained unresolved!
The fire in Baochai's front courtyard was still unresolved, and Daiyu's back courtyard was already teetering on the brink of collapse. Poor Bao Erye was truly finding it hard to have any peace and quiet!
At the gate of the villa, after greeting his beloved companions, Bao Erye carefully explained all the emergency matters, large and small, to Bao Yong and Ni Er.
"Second Master, you can go without worry. We will definitely not let that scoundrel Zhao Quan gain the slightest advantage!" Knowing his master was away on business, the boorish Ni Er patted his chest to guarantee it, but his farewell words elicited snickers from everyone.
Damn it! This young master isn't going through fire and water, why is Ni Er's speech so awkward?! Rolling his eyes, the guy chuckled and lightly punched his loyal subordinate, then strode onto his horse and galloped away!
Perhaps to abide by the precepts of cultivation and avoid shocking the world, or perhaps subconsciously severing his soft, compassionate heart, the one who went out to find Baochai chose a plain horse that took a long time to traverse!
The wind swirled, the clouds moved, and a chilling atmosphere permeated every corner of the imperial city overnight.
A lawsuit was directly submitted to the Golden Hall, with irrefutable evidence pointing to the Jia family's heinous crimes. Jia She had slaughtered his entire family for his own selfish desires, and the victim was a relative of the Empress. This had caused a huge uproar!
The four great families naturally argued their case, and just as the argument reached a fever pitch, the Empress, who was closely connected to the family, indeed flew into a rage, just as Zhao Quan had predicted. The weak and incompetent Emperor, besides chanting Amitabha Buddha's name, made no decision whatsoever. Fortunately, Prince Bei Jing intervened, arguing that Jia She and Jia Zheng had already separated their households, thus preserving the Rongguo Mansion and the Grand View Garden!
"Bang!" A violent crash shattered the grand Jia family mansion, its walls adorned with white jade and golden horses. Poor Jia She was discussing his pleasures with his trusted followers when the cold iron shackles shattered his dreams. Fortunately, Prince Bei Jing, also an imperial envoy, secretly intervened, and thanks to the Empress's mercy, the women of the Rongguo East Mansion, in their panic and helplessness, were spared. Homeless Lady Xing, along with Feng Jie and Ying Chun, took refuge in the West Mansion.
Poor Jia She, of course, was not so lucky; exile to the frontier was already a divine favor from the Emperor! With such a crime, everyone turned against him. First, evidence of the Jia family's crimes spread like wildfire, then it escalated to the four great families' wicked deeds that had bullied the world.
The Emperor, obsessed with Taoist practices, was enraged. With a single decree, the military power of the four great families fell from grace. Although the other three families did not suffer the same fate as the Jia family—their property confiscated—their constant fear and anxiety were worse than death!
Within three days, a large group of masked assassins carrying the tokens of the four great families stormed the palace. The unlucky emperor died prematurely, and the crown prince ascended the throne in the midst of the crisis. The
"wise" crown prince immediately concluded that someone was using the guise of a disgraced official to commit the crime. He placed the four great families under house arrest and launched a bloody investigation. All members of the Zhu family who might inherit the throne were struck down by misfortune!
There were many intelligent people in the court and the countryside who, though they dared not speak out, vaguely sensed a conspiracy. An undercurrent was surging in the court and the countryside—the world was about to change!
The world was indeed going to change, but it was not changing in the way they thought!
The sudden change was almost unbelievable. Zhao Quan, who had always been closely associated with the rising star of the military, Zhongshan Lang, directly pointed to this person as the mastermind in court!
Enraged, Zhongshan Lang naturally retaliated, and a fierce battle ensued. A powerful rebel camp was forced to split into two factions, and the capital was plunged into a bloodbath. Panic
gripped the court and the people. Only Prince Bei Jing, alone in his residence, secretly ignited his ambition. He had truly encountered the god of destiny; the prophecy of chaos had come true. Would he too be crowned emperor?!
Bao Yong, carrying the heavy responsibility of the four great families and the Red Mansion guards, entered Prince Bei Jing's residence, causing the usually rational Shui Rong to once again sigh that the gods truly were watching, and the will of Heaven could not be defied!
Sun Shaozu, though a member of the military, dared not openly rebel and had to resort to his private army. The Embroidered Uniform Guard was at a disadvantage against professional soldiers. Unexpectedly, a large army suddenly attacked from the south, and the unfortunate Zhongshan wolf was caught off guard and torn to pieces.
Zhao Quan, believing himself to be the chosen one, seized the opportunity and marched straight to the palace. With the help of an inside agent, he opened the palace gates. Using the pretext that the new emperor was indiscriminately killing innocent people and harming the country, he vehemently accused him of abdicating in his favor!
At the urging of his two close eunuchs, Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin, the terrified new emperor trembled as he wrote his final imperial edict. Overjoyed, Zhao Quan, in a fit of madness, lost control and, with a flash of his gleaming steel blade, sliced the emperor in two!
"Kill! Kill the traitors, cleanse the world!" Before the abdication edict could even leave the palace gates, another upheaval occurred in the capital. A mysterious and powerful masked army swiftly and decisively annihilated Zhao Quan's surprise attack! Blood stained the capital, corpses littered the ground!
The masked army's slogans shook the heavens and earth. Unable to resist, Zhao Quan committed suicide. His imperial dream shattered, and a once-powerful figure fell victim to supernatural powers beyond mortal comprehension. Fate had brought him down! Truly, the tragic declaration had come true—"Heaven will destroy me, not my fault in battle!"
Another bloodbath began. But the dead were few, the prisoners many! Secret agents from the Red Mansion sent in reports from officials at all levels across the country, meticulously verifying and investigating them. This resulted in a massive purge of officials from the highest ranks down to the lowest levels of government.
The honest and capable were promoted three ranks, the incompetent were demoted to commoners, and the wicked and corrupt were imprisoned or beheaded!
This rapid change naturally caused upheaval throughout the country. Those whose interests were harmed inevitably harbored ill intentions, but with the overwhelming support of the people, the resistance of a small group of fools was extinguished like a spark in the rain!
A new era had arrived! The new era that Bao Yu had meticulously paved for Prince Bei Jing had begun! Although the world was in chaos, it was a brief darkness before dawn. Everything needed rebuilding, and the people were united. This new atmosphere invigorated the entire nation, and the final expectation was for Prince Bei Jing to quell the chaos and ascend the throne! Donning the imperial
yellow robe—the half-hearted Prince of Bei Jing finally fulfilled his childhood dream. His upright nature ensured he would be diligent in governing and care for his people. Furthermore, with the eight-character mantra left by Bao Yu, the entire world would enjoy peace and prosperity for at least a century!
Aside from the affairs of state, no one noticed that the new empress was not the original princess. Only after a palace eunuch let slip the secret did the world learn that Empress Li, Princess Li, and Crown Princess Li—the three daughters of the Li royal family—had tragically perished in the war.
Beauty often brings tragic fates! The sighs and lamentations only deepened the world's respect for this wise ruler!
Let the world churn and change; while the old emperor was finished, Bao Yu was lingering among the three women of the Shuiyue Nunnery, lost in their warmth and beauty!
"Ah..." The passionate moans seemed to transport time back to months ago. With Bao Erye's sudden entry, Jingxu's voluptuous body nearly soared to the heavens. Zhineng and Zhishan, surrounded by spring's allure, also recklessly plunged into Bao Erye's fiery passion.
"Mmm..." At the height of pleasure, the beautiful woman, using her last ounce of strength to reciprocate, was sobbing. Today, she was exceptionally wild and unrestrained, unleashing positions and actions she would never have dared to imagine before. This passion was partly to compensate for her long-standing longing, and partly to move her lover by avenging her blood feud!
"Good sisters, please wait patiently for a few more days. I will send someone to bring you to the capital as soon as possible!" Bao Erye stroked the three nuns' hair, his love overflowing. Although Shuiyue Nunnery was a remote place, it wasn't entirely deserted. The pressure and risks the three women faced in secretly growing their hair in the nunnery were unimaginable!
Having witnessed the ugliness and horror of the world, Bao Yu was overcome with emotion at this thought. He set aside his lingering attachment to Baochai and wholeheartedly immersed himself in the "divine bliss" that would once again fill the hearts and minds of the three women!
"Bao Yu, are you really not going to stay a few more days?" A gentle breeze blew, and as the sun rose, the three women accompanied Bao Yu out of the nunnery, facing the light mist.
"I will return to the capital as soon as possible!" Bao Yu's affectionate gaze enveloped the three women, and he tenderly instructed them once more, "Remember to fasten the belt I gave you. With it, no matter what danger you face, you won't truly be harmed. I can then focus on my work!"
"Yes!" The three women smiled happily, their smiles blooming like flowers. They nodded firmly in agreement and said nothing more, silently watching their beloved ride away until he disappeared from sight. They remained silent and motionless, for their hearts had already soared with their lover!
The turmoil in the capital proceeded smoothly according to Bao Yu's plan. Once power transcends the laws of the world, worldly changes become effortless. Poor Zhao Quan was like a master assassin, faithfully carrying out Bao Yu's sweeping plan to decisively eliminate the threat!
Everything went as planned. When news of the new emperor's ascension spread throughout the country, Bao Yu, who was enjoying a carefree journey across the vast land, finally let go of his last worry. His departure did not affect the overall situation. With loyal subordinates like Bao Yong and Ni Er leading the charge, and Yuan Chun and Feng Jie, his true love, managing the situation, the family, despite the significant changes both inside and outside the home, remained largely unharmed after the storm.
The four great families, of course, made a comeback, regaining their power and influence, their momentum even stronger than before. Only Jia She was exiled to the border without pardon, truly failing to live up to the good name his father gave him!
It turned out that the foolish Jia She, cowardly and afraid of death, begged for his life like Zhao Quan without torture after being imprisoned. He played a crucial role in the swift downfall of the four great families. So although his injustice was cleared, his guilt remained unmitigated; it was a stroke of luck that he wasn't beheaded!
This wasn't an "accident," even though Master Bao had deliberately planned it. Jia She's response was crucial to his own honor and disgrace; the shrewd Master Bao naturally didn't want this parasite to stay under his nose any longer, so he sent him to the border to be tempered! Heh, heh… as for whether he'd return alive, that was up to fate!
Nothing in this world is absolutely perfect; even the carefree and wise Master Bao hadn't considered that not-so-accidental accident! The
old lady, unaware of the inside story, though in good health, was overwhelmed by the shock of the Jia family's downfall. The anxiety, fear, and advanced age caused her to fall seriously ill. Even after the family was restored to normalcy, her condition didn't improve, and the doctors were helpless, only awaiting her death.
Master Bao, carefree and at ease, was completely unaware of this. Even if he had known, what could he have done? What should he have done?
Perhaps Heaven and Earth heard this question, for the Underworld, which governs life and death in the human realm, is holding a difficult meeting to decide on this matter!
"What opinions do you all have? Please speak frankly, for time is running out!" King Yama waved his hand with a troubled expression, fearing that a momentary mistake would bring about a catastrophic disaster!
"Your Majesty, the Book of Life and Death records that Grandmother Jia's lifespan has ended. Let's proceed according to the law!" Despite the chaos in the Underworld, the Black Judge's nature remained unchanged. He pointed to the Book of Life and Death without hesitation!
"What the Black Judge says makes sense," Judge Sima replied in a steady and solemn voice. "If we are too cautious, we will lose the dignity of the Underworld. However, we can temporarily preserve the old lady's soul. As long as Young Master Jia doesn't express his opinion, we will let the old lady be reincarnated in the next life to enjoy wealth and honor!"
"Your Majesty, Brother Sima's suggestion is good! Brother Jia is not a petty person. Let me handle this matter of capturing the soul!" Judge Lu solemnly ended this seemingly absurd meeting. In the face of unattainable power, even Death must bow down! The
wide canal connects the north and south. The closer Bao Erye, who had been staying in the north for a long time, got to the water towns of Jiangnan, the more excited he became. He abandoned his horse and took a boat. Although the speed was slow, the scenery on both banks and the birdsong on both sides intoxicated him!
A man in high spirits hired a small boat and set sail alone. Lured by the hefty sum, the boatman readily complied, ignoring the late hour and relying on his experience to steer the boat.
Nighttime sailing is generally forbidden, but this allowed Master Bao to appreciate the tranquil and profound beauty of the daytime. Sometimes breaking conventions can bring unexpected rewards. The carefree actions of this favored child brought more than just beautiful scenery! As dusk deepened,
the medium-sized passenger boat, traveling upstream, slowly moored on a secluded riverbank. Amidst the shouts of raising and lowering the sails, a dozen burly boatmen, their eyes gleaming with curiosity, exchanged smiles and went to the lower deck to rest.
"Sister, when will we reach the capital?" In the elegant upper deck cabin, a graceful young woman, her figure perfectly proportioned and her lips slightly pouting with impatience, spoke. Although the candlelight obscured her face, her clear and melodious voice left no doubt that she was a naturally beautiful young woman!
"Little sister, you're still so impatient!" Compared to her younger sister's lively and straightforward nature, the older sister's temperament was quite the opposite. The girl sitting quietly by the window turned her face at the sound of the voice, her clear
, watery eyes sparkling with intelligence and elegance. Her perfect oval face was exquisite and delicate, possessing a composure beyond her youthful years! "Alright, even though we're so far from home, you still have to lecture me!" The lively younger sister stepped forward with a coquettish voice. The soft candlelight finally revealed her beautiful face: a straight, delicate nose above a rosy mouth, a slightly pointed chin paired with flowing hair. This caused the wind, which had been peeking from the side, to instantly roar with excitement. In the flickering candlelight, she couldn't help but exclaim, "My God, they're identical twins!"
The same face was so seamless on both the quiet older sister and the straightforward younger sister, a masterpiece of nature!
"Good sister, are you bored on the boat?" The younger sister approached and playfully shook her older sister's arm, then quickly changed the subject, still asking, "When will we reach the capital?"
"Sigh!" The older sister sighed helplessly. Sometimes she really couldn't understand why her sister, born only moments apart from her, had such different personalities. "I already sent a letter to my cousin before I left. If all goes well, she'll send someone to meet us at the dock. We'll be on a big ship for another three days, and then we can ride in your carriage! Are you satisfied now?!"
"Is she also eager to see her eldest sister? It's been two years since she last came home!" The younger sister's beautiful eyes sparkled with joy, and she blurted out, "Eldest sister is so beautiful and so kind, don't you want to see her?!"
The older sister, leaning against the soft couch, gazed at the moonlight outside the window with her elegant face. The tranquil atmosphere was even more enhanced by the soft moonlight, adding a touch of charm and grace. However, the beauty's words were rather low and heavy. "Silly sister, how could I not want to see my eldest sister?! Have you forgotten why we came to the capital?!"
She paused slightly, and the thoughtful older sister turned her head and said with concern, "There has been a change in eldest sister's family this time. I hope she is lucky and that nothing bad will happen to her. Unfortunately, Mother is ill and cannot go out, so it is only the two of us sisters who can visit her!"
"Boom!" Before the older sister finished speaking, the tightly closed cabin door was suddenly kicked open, and the honest and law-abiding captain, who was usually so docile, rushed in with a ferocious expression.
"Ah—" The two sisters let out a scream that pierced the sky. The fiery younger sister was the first to react and shouted angrily, "Who let you in? Get out of here!"
