"Alright, I am indeed quite tired lately."

Li Chen nodded slightly and accepted Yu Jing's invitation to the inner room.

In particular, the feeling of stealing can be even more exciting in this situation.

Yu Jing was overjoyed to hear Li Chen's permission, and her face flushed.

Li Chen didn't actually intend to think anything inappropriate; her actions were indeed too tempting, perhaps even she herself didn't realize it.

Fearing that Li Chen might change his mind, Yu Jing quickly gestured for him to leave, and then followed Luo Xi and Li Chen away.

"Thanks to you, Madam!"

Long after Li Chen left, Qiu Zuo patted his chest and let out a long breath, secretly giving Yu Jing a thumbs up for her composure in the face of danger.

Even though Emperor Li Chen was approachable, Qiu Zuo still felt like he was facing a mountain. If it weren't for Madam Yu Jing taking charge, he feared he would have ruined the entire Qiu family.

After thinking it over, Qiu Zuo secretly decided to express his gratitude to his wife and planned to go to Jubao Pavilion in person to buy her favorite hairpin at any cost!
In his view, he was a rough man and the servants were ignorant, so it was best to let his wife serve the emperor personally to avoid angering him.

Of course, what he wants to serve now is just as simple as serving tea and water.

On the other side, Li Chen had already been taken by Yu Jing to her and Qiu Zuo's courtyard.

As the emperor, Li Chen naturally received the best of everything. The furnishings in the house, the bedding, and even the flowers and plants in the courtyard were all completely renewed.

"Your Majesty, you and the Imperial Concubine may rest first. If you would like dinner, simply inform the servants waiting outside the courtyard."

Yu Jing bowed slightly to Li Chen, making her cleavage appear even deeper.

To her, this was just a normal action. She thought to herself that if the emperor shared a room with the beauty next to him after she left, it would prove that the emperor was a normal man.

Then, you can send your daughter to the emperor. Your daughter certainly won't resist, nor would she dare to.

But Li Chen looked around and saw that the servants had already gone far away, and Master Qiu had long since disappeared. How could he not see such an obvious hint?

The next second, Yu Jing realized that things were not as she had thought.

Li Chen put his arm around her waist and walked towards the bed, saying, "I already know my wife's intentions."

Yu Jing was held in Li Chen's arms, and for a moment she felt her heart pounding violently with each breath.

She just wanted to see if Li Chen was fond of women, not for her to serve him.

Recalling everything that had just happened, she suddenly realized that her actions might be considered seduction in front of the emperor.

Ask yourself, inviting the emperor into a room alone, and being so close to him right now, isn't that blatant seduction?

The good news is that the emperor was indeed fond of women; the bad news is that the woman he was fond of was himself.

Actually, it was a misunderstanding, but as a commoner, how could Yu Jing have the courage to refuse?

If the emperor gets angry, the entire Qiuyue Manor will be destroyed, and rivers of blood will flow.

Yu Jing lowered her head, a blush rising on her face like a young girl's. Her mind began to wander: It's not so bad that His Majesty misunderstood; it's a good opportunity for her to test whether His Majesty has been drained by lust. Yes! It's all for Qingxia!
Yu Jing felt a surge of excitement when she realized this was her and Qiu Zuo's room, but she still trembled as she took off the thin veil covering her body.

The courtyard gradually returned to calm as the sky began to lighten.

Yu Jing opened the door like a thief, glanced around to make sure no one was there, and then cautiously walked out of the courtyard. "Madam, you've come to see His Highness so early. You're so thoughtful."

As Yu Jing stepped out of the courtyard, she heard Qiu Zuo's cheerful voice.

This made Yu Jing tremble. She turned around and looked at Qiu Zuo in a daze, saying, "It's alright. His Majesty just woke up. Don't disturb him at this time."

The commotion last night was quite significant; it wasn't until just now that His Majesty finally let her go.

It seems her husband still thinks she's just arrived.

"Yes, yes, yes, Madam is right!" Qiu Zuo nodded and bowed repeatedly.

Seeing her husband's expression, Yu Jing tentatively asked, "Where did you go yesterday?"

Because of what she just said, it seems her husband doesn't know she didn't come home yesterday.

Qiu Zuo took out a hairpin and said, "Madam, this is to prepare a surprise for you. I ran to Shanghe City overnight to buy it."

Seeing this, Yu Jing was moved but also felt guilty, realizing she had been lying to her husband, who had indeed expressed his gratitude to her.

Fine, I'll treat my husband better from now on.

Yu Jing took the hairpin, a satisfied smile on her face, praised her husband a few times, and then prepared to go back to catch up on her sleep.

Just then, Qiu Zuo suddenly called out to Yu Jing, "Madam, what's wrong with your leg? You're walking with a limp. Did you fall?"

These words made Yu Jing panic. She had no choice but to accept Li Chen's request. Who could possibly stay up all night?

It's over, things are bound to be exposed, and Yu Jing doesn't know how to face Qiu Zuo.

To explain that he had done something strange, and that His Majesty had misunderstood, and that he had done it all night, Qiu Zuoxin?
If Qiu Zuo gets angry, that's not a big problem. The real concern is Li Chen getting angry, since Li Chen is an emperor at the Saint Realm.

Yu Jing was trying to come up with an excuse to explain herself and avoid sleeping with her husband tonight, since Li Chen had asked her to come over tonight, and she had agreed.

Just as she was stammering, Qiu Zuo suddenly slapped his head and said, "Hey, look at my brain. You just met His Majesty, so it's normal that you were flustered and afraid of the Emperor's might. I was scared to death yesterday."

This statement made Yu Jing think that her husband was very oblivious, not even questioning this?
So he tried to ask in a fit of pique, "Why don't you suspect that I have some kind of relationship with Jun Wu Hui, like you did last time?"

Hearing this, Qiu Zuo couldn't help but laugh and waved his hand, saying, "Don't tease me. I know you best and I know about the Saint Realm. The Saint Realm pursues the ethereal path to immortality. Even Jun Wu Hui looks down on you. His Majesty is a hundred times stronger than Jun Wu Hui, so why would he look down on you? Only your husband feels sorry for you."

These words made Yu Jing lose her composure, and she angrily said, "Fine, fine, you say so? I'll go serve His Majesty tonight."

Qiu Zuo laughed instead, "Go ahead and go, I didn't stop you. If you serve His Majesty well and conceive a royal child, our Qiuyue Manor will have produced a noble person!"

He thought it was his wife being stubborn, so he said very generously.

The next second, perhaps because of his open-mindedness, Qiu Zuo suddenly had an epiphany, and his aura began to change. He had just broken through and was now experiencing enlightenment.

"Madam, you are truly my lucky star. I may not be able to stay with you tonight; I must go into seclusion," Qiu Zuo said excitedly.

"Go ahead, seize this opportunity." Yu Jing didn't understand why her husband would be moved by something like this.

I was worried that I wouldn't be able to serve His Majesty tonight and would be blamed by him. But with you doing this, I don't even bother making excuses.
