Yan Yan took Zhong Qing into a small pavilion garden in the Imperial Palace.
There was a bench in the pavilion, but Yan Yan did not hurry to lay her down. Behind him, there was a slave who quickly lined the bench up with thick, soft layers of mattress. Yan Yan carefully put down Zhong Qing on it.
Zhong Qing felt a bit embarrassed and said, “I’m not so delicate …”
She unfinished her words because Yan Yan smiled and interrupted her, “But, I think my Sister Peony is so delicate.”
There was a smile on his face, but there was still a bit of anxiety in the depths of her eyes.
Zhong Qing became soft at that the moment. She took Yan Yan’s hand and promised him, “Sister Peony is relieved that what happened was only an accident. I promise that there will be no more next time.”
Yan Yan looked at their hands and then he looked soft to her and said, “Well, I will make sure that there will be no more accidents next time.”
“Whenever I think of what happened with you again while I’m in the Northwest, I feel sad and crazy! I hurried back from the northwest and saw my Sister Peony lying on her bed. The feeling of desperation in my heart, I felt like I will be going crazy! I won’t let that happen again! If it will happen again, I will die!” He added.
Zhong Qing giggled.
——-
There were slaves who presented up little snacks for them.
Yan Yan personally picked up a few while Zhong Qing still had no appetite but tasted it.
“By the way, what happened in the past few years?”
Zhong Qing was a little bit curious. She wanted to know what happened to Emperor Hinode and how Yan Yan was crowned the Emperor.
Yan Yan was peeling off the tangerine on his hand and said in an understatement, “Before I return to Beijing while I was still busy fighting in the Northwest, I suddenly heard the news that father died because of a severe illness. My grandfather Huang went in a hurry to the palace. Under the reserve, the five princes in the palace were fighting for the throne. Grandfather Huang announced that whoever wins, will be the new emperor.”
What he did not say was that this was about the death of Emperor Hinode, which he did with his own hands.
He did not really intend to do it.
His intention was just to talk to his father, but he, himself, didn’t know that his anger will lead to a disaster.
Their conversation became worse, that’s why Yan Yan couldn’t control himself and his anger anymore including seeing his Sister Peony lying on the bed, unconscious.
“What if my Sister Peony suspected me?” He thought.
There was a flash of blood in the pupil of Yan Yan.
He greedily looked at the relaxed woman in front of him.
“As long as she is just around me, nothing will be more important!” He added.
What he said was only an understatement and Zhong Qing knew that things were definitely not that simple.
Yan Yan was a prince who did not have real power and wanted to win in such a struggle. No one knew how many hardships he already experienced.
She sighed, “I know it’s hard for you.”
Yan Yan laughed and he stared at her with deep affection. “Nothing is difficult. Now everything is alright. You are also with me now, Yan Yan is very happy and satisfied.”
Zhong Qing just thought that the other person’s eyes looked as if they wanted to strip the light and eat it.
She felt uncomfortable and casually changed the topic, “You are now more than 20 years old and also the Emperor of a country and still living in your palace. Is that okay?”
Yan Yan’s look changed and thought, “What does my Sister Peony mean?”
Zhong Qing weighed the words and said, “You, as the Emperor of a country, of course needs to marry someone to become the Empress…”
She did not finish speaking. She was interrupted by Yan Yan.
His look seemed very irritated, fainted, mixed with disappointment and anger, “I don’t want to marry someone else! There will be no Empress!”
She looked at him with surprise and wondered why he suddenly changed his face.
Yan Yan looked at the woman in front of her.
“How could she say that so easily and let herself feel satisfied?”
Yan Yan took Zhong Qing into a small pavilion garden in the Imperial Palace.
There was a bench in the pavilion, but Yan Yan did not hurry to lay her down. Behind him, there was a slave who quickly lined the bench up with thick, soft layers of mattress. Yan Yan carefully put down Zhong Qing on it.
