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

Chapter 366 Forcing Her to Love Him
Murong was not pleased that Lou Suyi did not respond: "Empress, give me a word!"

"Is Your Majesty alright? Is there anything wrong?" Lou Suyi actually suspected that Murong might be possessed by a ghost.

He's usually a cold and aloof emperor, so this sudden stupidity is out of character for him.

He's a cold-blooded emperor who has no interest in romantic love, so why is he forcing her to love him?

Murong immediately saw what Lou Suyi was thinking and calmly said, "I am perfectly normal."

Lou Suyi thought about it and realized that she had never written any letters before, not even when she was pursuing Xie Zhijie. Writing a so-called love letter was really difficult for her.

“Then I’ll write it down. Your Majesty mustn’t find it offensive.” Lou Suyi looked pale.

If he dared to laugh at her, she would never write again.

"Why would I laugh at you?" Murong was very satisfied with Lou Suyi's answer. "Then I will wait for the Empress to write to me. Remember, Empress, do not copy love poems from the past. You must write your own sincere feelings, otherwise I will not accept them."

Lou Suyi thought Murong was a difficult person to please.

She had been thinking the same thing, but he cut off her escape route.

"Okay, okay, I understand. May I go to sleep now?" Lou Suyi just wanted to go to sleep as soon as possible.

Heaven have mercy, even Empress Dowager Chen knows to be considerate of her, a pregnant woman. As the father of the child, why does Murong have to cause so much trouble?
"Go to sleep." Murong was satisfied with Lou Suyi's answer, and mercifully helped her lie down, not forgetting to add, "Don't just dismiss her, write carefully."

Lou Suyi nodded sullenly: "I understand."

He was such a difficult emperor to deal with.

Her last thought before falling asleep was, "Would he really write to me too?"

The next morning, after she got up, she was still thinking about writing a letter to Murong.

She felt extremely ashamed and dared not tell Jinshu and Yan Hui the truth. After having breakfast, she hid in the study.

But as she sat at her desk, her mind went blank, and she didn't know how to begin writing.

Jinshu and Yanhui had no idea why Lou Suying was hiding alone in the study, acting so suspiciously, nor did they know if their master was doing something shady.

After they waited for half an hour, Lou Suying poked her head out, looking rather furtive.

"Yan Hui, show me your storybook." Lou Suyi smiled brightly at Yan Hui.

Yan Hui thought she had found a kindred spirit, and her eyes lit up: "Your Majesty has finally discovered that storybooks are interesting?"

"Hurry up and go." Lou Suyi was extremely worried.

Murong forbids her from drawing inspiration from predecessors, but can she draw inspiration from storybooks?

Anyway, she could find inspiration from storybooks, otherwise she wouldn't be able to deliver.

The novels that Yan Hui found for Lou Suyi were all romance novels. Lou Suyi skimmed through the plots and felt they were unrealistic, but she still forced herself to keep reading.

She quickly found the key point: if she switched the male and female protagonists in the storybook, and wrote letters to Murong from the perspective of the male protagonist, wouldn't that create a romantic relationship?

She pondered for a whole morning before finally finishing the letter.

When she came out of the study, she saw Jiqing holding a scroll. Upon seeing her, Jiqing immediately put on a smile and explained his purpose: "His Majesty sent me to collect a letter. Has Your Highness finished writing it?"

Lou Suyi readily handed the letter to Jiqing, who in turn handed her the "letter" that Murong had given her.

"This servant must return to His Majesty to report. This servant takes his leave." Ji Qing carefully put away the letter.

Yan Hui, standing to the side, was completely confused: "What are Your Majesty and the Empress up to?" His Majesty had just left this morning, and the two of them were both in the palace, so why were they still exchanging letters? This was too strange.

"I don't know what this is all about," Lou Suyi said, then retreated back to her study.

She squeezed the scroll and thought it looked like a painting, and out of curiosity, she unfolded it.

To her surprise, when she unfolded it, she saw portraits of herself and Murong.

What surprised her even more was that the portrait was of a scene from two years ago when she woke up in his bed and pounced on him.

She blushed instantly, looking at the portrait and wondering if he had taken advantage of her when she was on top of him.

Although a long time has passed, this scene is still vivid in her memory, after all, it was the first person she met after her rebirth.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that she and Murong were destined to be together.

Otherwise, how could she have seen Murong the moment she woke up, and eventually become his empress?

She was stunned for a long time, and when she saw the painting again, she felt it was burning hot.

Where should this painting be hidden? If she weren't worried about Murong asking, she would have loved to burn it; it was simply too unsightly to look at.

Why would a man as rigid as Murong Mingming paint such a picture? In her opinion, the scene looked too improper.

The most crucial thing is that neither Jinshu nor Yan Hui knew that she had woken up on Murong's dragon bed.

He claimed he was writing her a letter, but in the end he only drew this picture for her. He even demanded that her letter be sincere and heartfelt. He had so many demands.

Finally, she rolled up the painting and asked Jinshu to find a large, locked box, intending to hide it securely so that no one but her could see it.

She had just put the painting away when she couldn't help but take it out to look at it again. She found that Murong had painted her very beautifully, and the expressions on her face were very realistic.

It must be said, the man she married was truly remarkable. He was the ruler of a country, possessed excellent calligraphy skills, governed the nation effectively, and was also an excellent painter. Although she didn't have any deep romantic feelings for him, she respected her husband from the bottom of her heart.

She was admiring her own beauty, but her gaze unconsciously fell on Murong's face.

The man's handsome face and half-naked chest possessed a fatal allure. Tsk tsk, male beauty can be deceiving.

Yan Hui, who was not far away, curiously peeked out and asked, "What did His Majesty give to the Empress that she looked at again and again?"

Jinshu was also very curious: "If Her Majesty doesn't allow us to see it, then it must be a secret."

**
Meanwhile, Ji Qing returned to the Imperial Study and immediately handed over the letter.

Murong took the letter and ordered everyone to leave, including Ji Qing and Jinli.

"What's all this mystery about the letter Her Majesty wrote that makes His Majesty treasure it so much?" Ji Qing asked, full of curiosity.

Koi, however, wasn't so curious and replied, "Anything that Her Majesty the Empress gives to His Majesty must be a good thing."

After confirming that everyone had left, Murong unfolded the letter, revealing Lou Suyi's delicate handwriting:

My heart races whenever I think of His Majesty, and seeing Chen'er reminds me of His Majesty's handsome face. Has His Majesty cast a love spell on me?

Murong frowned slightly, then counted again; there were only thirty-seven characters in total.

He really shouldn't have had too high expectations of her. Looking at the content again, it seemed more sincere than simply copying love poems.

Tomorrow, the Empress should write a full one hundred characters; we can't let it be done so hastily any longer.
