Five years after her death, she awoke on the dragon bed.

Chapter 34 He had an affair with her in front of his favorite concubine.

Murong smiled calmly: "You're quite thoughtful."

Lou Suying nodded vigorously, taking the opportunity to pull her hand away from his grasp: "Of course. His Majesty's life was saved by this humble nun, and now that His Majesty's status is so noble, how could this humble nun tarnish His Majesty's reputation?"

Murong gave a subtle, ambiguous twitch of his lips.

Lou Suyi felt the air around her suddenly freeze, and looking at Murong's inscrutable face, she belatedly realized that the emperor was a little unhappy.

Tsk tsk, this face is really good-looking, abstinent and cold, but who would have thought he would be so wild in bed?
Alerted that she was thinking about something she shouldn't have, she coughed twice and looked away.

Just as the atmosphere became strangely tense, a eunuch's voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Consort De has arrived!"

Lou Suyi's subconscious reaction was to immediately move away from Murong, as if he were some kind of demon or monster.

Her exaggerated reaction drew Murong's attention. Lou Suying knew that men were concerned about their image, so she awkwardly explained, "With outsiders present, perhaps this humble nun should stay away from His Majesty to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings."

Murong remained noncommittal, and soon the stunningly beautiful Consort De entered.

As soon as she entered, she saw Murong sitting opposite a young nun. Although the two were quite far apart, there was a strange sense of intimacy between them.

Just as she was in a daze, Murong looked over, and she finally shook off the strange feeling that had just surged into her heart.

She stepped forward to greet Murong, who dismissed her formalities and asked, "Why have you come to Xianfu Palace at this hour?"

Consort De looked at Murong with eyes as clear as autumn water, her gaze seemingly capable of drawing silk threads: "I heard that a young, beautiful, and highly skilled master has come to the palace. I just happened to be passing by and came to see what this master is like. I just didn't expect that Master Kongchen would be so young."

When she said this, she clearly didn't look directly at Lou Suyi.

Lou Suyi saw the emperor and his favorite concubine gazing at each other and wondered if she should give them some space.

At this moment, Murong looked at her, and she immediately straightened her back.

Murong looked at her little gesture and slowly said, "Since you're here, let's have dinner together."

Consort De finally looked away from the young emperor and turned to Lou Suyi, who was sitting upright to the side.

The moment she saw Lou Suyi's face clearly, she was secretly alarmed.

She had heard that Lou Suying was exceptionally beautiful, but she didn't know she was this exceptional. She was a classic beauty, and this nun even exuded a subtle, alluring charm. She was truly stunning...

"Is this Master Kongchen?" Consort De finally found her voice after a while.

Lou Suyi replied with composure, "This humble nun, Kongchen, wishes Your Highness, Consort De, good health."

Why did she feel that Consort De's gaze was a little off? Could it be that she had noticed her affair with Murong? She and Murong were clearly quite far apart just now.

"How old is the master this year?" Consort De looked Lou Suyi up and down, and the more she looked, the more alarmed she became.

She inquired about Lou Suyi's past. Five years ago, Lou Suyi fell into a sea of ​​fire. Why was Lou Suyi able to escape unscathed?

Could it be that, like her, she is possessed by a time-traveling woman?

On second thought, she realized something was amiss. If Lou Suying had truly fallen into the fire, how could she have been completely unharmed by burns?
Unless it is said that Lou Suyi transmigrated with her soul, thus replacing the already dead Lou Suyi.

"This humble nun is only twenty-one years old," Lou Suyi replied solemnly, unaware of Consort De's complex inner thoughts. Consort De chuckled upon hearing this and looked at Murong, saying, "Master, you are truly joking. You are clearly only sixteen years old, how could you possibly be over twenty? Your Majesty, don't you agree?"

Upon hearing this, Murong looked at Lou Suyi's face and examined it carefully.

Seemingly because he couldn't see clearly, he simply beckoned to her: "Suyi, come here and let me take a good look."

Lou Suyi cursed a bunch of three-character curses in her heart. What does this dog emperor want to do?
Calling her by her maiden name so intimately in front of Consort De would surely make his favorite concubine think that she and he were very close.

But since the emperor had spoken, she couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to move closer to Murong under Consort De's scrutinizing gaze.

But when she was a few steps away from him, she stopped moving.

Murong looked at her helplessly: "I can't see clearly when you're like this. Sit down next to me."

Lou Suying's heart was in turmoil, but she maintained an upright and incorruptible demeanor on the surface. She could only try to get closer to him, hoping he wouldn't go too far.

At this moment, Murong suddenly leaned closer to her face and examined her carefully: "If Consort De hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have noticed that you haven't changed at all in five years. Tell me, what is the reason for this?"

Lou Suyi looked at the man's face so close to hers. His warm breath brushed against her cheek, and his eyes held an ambiguous light that only she could understand.

Her mind went blank for a moment, and it took her a while to recover before she softly uttered "Amitabha." "I can only sigh that this humble nun is destined to be with the Buddha. As for anything else, this humble nun cannot say a word more, otherwise it would be revealing heavenly secrets."

Consort De stared intently at Lou Suyi's face, trying to discern any guilt or embarrassment from the nun's expression. However, the nun remained composed, showing no sign of blushing or palpitation even with Murong so close to her.

This only suggests that the nun may not have had any intention of currying favor with Murong.

If the nun had even the slightest impure thought about Murong, her reaction would not have been so indifferent, especially given how close he was to her.

She felt a slight sense of relief, realizing that she had been overly sensitive.

After all, Lou Suyi saved Murong's life, so isn't it normal for him to treat Lou Suyi differently?
After comforting herself in this way, she smoothed things over by saying, "It was I who was being unreasonable. Please don't take offense, Master."

Lou Suyi's palms were sweaty; she was actually a little nervous.

Consort De suddenly tested her. Murong was still in cahoots with Consort De. If Consort De, this favored concubine, knew that she had long been involved with Murong, she would definitely be the first opponent Consort De would want to eliminate.

"Your Highness, Consort De is too kind." Lou Suyi turned around slowly.

But in the next moment, Murong suddenly grabbed her hand from under the table and intertwined their fingers.

Her face turned pale, and she lowered her head guiltily.

What is this dog emperor planning now? Does he want her to die even faster?
Or does he simply enjoy these clandestine affairs with her? Or does he relish the feeling of having an affair with her in front of his beloved concubine?

Seeing that Lou Suyi suddenly had sweat on her forehead and her face was pale, Consort De asked with concern, "Master, are you alright?"

Lou Suyi was about to speak when Murong suddenly tickled her palm, and her heart jumped into her throat.

She gritted her teeth, grabbed Murong's hand tightly in return, as a warning to him to stop causing trouble, and didn't forget to reply to Consort De: "It's alright, it's probably just hot weather."

Haha, Su Yi worries about her affair being exposed every day.
