The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 418: Then shall I leave?

Ying Zheng didn't want to go in at first, but seeing the lights still flickering in the palace, he went in anyway. He hadn't decided where to go today.

He raised his hand to stop the eunuchs and palace maids from passing on the message, and walked into the hall slowly.

The person in the main hall must be Zi Nu. The lights are now off. With a child, she definitely won't stay up late on purpose.

The lights in a side hall had also been turned off.

Looking at the only side hall with lights on, Ying Zheng pushed the door open and walked in, startling the beauty in the room.

The beauty in the room was dressed neatly and elegantly, sewing a silk jacket under the moonlight and candlelight, and it looked like it was almost finished.

She looks mature but not too old. I guess she is in her early thirties, the most graceful age.

The way she bent down her head and did needlework seriously just now was so caring and gentle, and her intellectual beauty came naturally to her.

The padded jacket she was sewing was probably not made for herself, as the colors and patterns were too delicate and bright, it should have been prepared for Nanyue.

She was frightened and at a loss at this moment. Her eyebrows were subconsciously wrinkled slightly, and she looked pitiful and sad, which was really pitiful.

Come to think of it, women these days have children very early, usually at the age of 28.

Thinking about it this way, it is really difficult for the beautiful girl in front of me to take on all the responsibilities when she is still a young girl.

The beauty at this moment could never have imagined that a man would break in at this time, and there was no movement outside.

Although I knew who the person was from his clothes and appearance, I was still a little overwhelmed when I faced the person and thought about his identity.

This was the first time she met Ying Zheng.

The noise also woke up another beauty.

Concubine Hu has always been extremely vigilant. Even in the Xianyang Palace, she has not given up her good habit of waking up at the slightest noise, at least not now.

"Sister, what's the matter?"

As she spoke, Lady Hu stood up and went out of the inner room to see what was going on. She saw her sister sitting there in a daze, with her silk jacket and needle and thread in her hands, looking quite at a loss.

Lady Hu looked towards the door again and exclaimed, "My King?!"

He quickly bowed and paid homage.

Mrs. Hu came to her senses, hurriedly put the things in her hands on the table, stepped forward and knelt down to pay her respects.

"Get up."

"I was walking around and happened to see that the lights in this palace were still on, so I came to take a look."

Ying Zheng said this softly, and explained in passing that the look of Madam Hu lowering her head and carefully sewing a padded jacket for Nanyue just now made Ying Zheng quite fond of her.

Since childhood, even though he had no shortage of food and clothing, Zhao Ji would still often sew brocade clothes for Ying Zheng. Even now, Zhao Ji would always sew a set of daily clothes for all four seasons by herself.

Ying Zheng walked up and picked up the padded jacket that was being sewn on the table. The stitches were fine and detailed, showing careful and attentive work. It was rare that the lady was also good at sewing.

He praised her, "It's very well made. Is it for Nong Yu?"

Madam Hu said softly, "Your Majesty, this is for Nanyue. I didn't have the chance to do it before. Winter is coming this year. Although Nanyue has your Majesty's love and care and doesn't lack anything, I just want to buy her a few more clothes."

Ying Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "That's good. It's a good idea of ​​yours."

Madam Hu quickly replied: "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I don't deserve it."

Ying Zheng looked at Concubine Hu. Concubine Hu had just come out in a hurry and was only wearing a fur coat, which was still a little thin. The Qutai Palace was not like the Lanchi Palace and the Ganquan Palace, which had geothermal heating. Now Concubine Hu was so cold that her skin was a little red.

But it still stood quietly and obediently by the side, just like a quietly blooming Epiphyllum.

It was obvious that she had put some careful thought into it. Even though it was cold, she did not wrap herself tightly in a fur coat. She deliberately exposed a little of the sky-blue bellyband with a lotus pattern, and her slender legs were vaguely visible.

Ying Zheng stretched out his hand, and Concubine Hu immediately threw herself into Ying Zheng's arms with a look of joy on her face.

Ying Zheng embraced her and touched her fair little hand. After all, Concubine Hu had no cultivation and was already very cold.

"Why don't you wear more clothes? It's so cold in the middle of the night in winter. What if you catch a cold?"

Ying Zheng injected true Qi into her to warm her body.

Lady Hu replied tenderly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I'm fine."

Feeling the warmth from Ying Zheng's big hand, her whole body soon became warm. Concubine Hu just felt extremely happy. What good luck did she have today to be treated like this by the king?
Mrs. Hu looked at her sister in the king's arms with a sweet face. She was in a state of confusion, neither standing nor sitting.

As for leaving, ever since my sister moved in, the two of them have been sleeping together, so where can she go now?!
Ying Zheng didn't want to move today. He kissed Lady Hu on the face and said, "Since we are here, we should make the best of it. I will not leave today."

He patted Lady Hu's hips and said, "Get ready. I'll wait for you in the main hall."

Lady Hu nodded repeatedly with joy.

After saying this, Ying Zheng was about to go and make trouble for Zi Nu.

As he was about to leave the room, Ying Zheng asked without even turning his head: "By the way, what's your name?"

Mrs. Hu, who was following behind and seeing Ying Zheng off, hesitated for a moment and whispered, "My lord, my maid's name is Qin, Huqin."

Ying Zheng chuckled and said, "You and your sister complement each other very well."

After a pause, he said, "And Nong Yu as well."

After saying that, he walked out and pushed Zi Nu's door.

Lady Hu, who was following Madam Hu, opened and narrowed her foxy eyes.

After watching the king push the door open and go in, he closed his own door and took his sister to the inner room, where they sat on the bed. Lady Hu looked at her sister carefully and suddenly said, "Sister, although this is not the first time the king has come to Qutai Palace, this is your first time meeting the king, right?"

Mrs. Hu nodded.

Lady Hu giggled and hugged her sister.

"What do you think of the king, sister?"

Mrs. Hu replied, "Very powerful."

Lady Hu nodded and said, "Of course."

"Sister, I see that the king has a good impression of you. I can see that. You are smarter than me, so I think you can see that, too, right?"

Mrs. Hu hurriedly said, "Nonsense! Don't talk nonsense!"

Mrs. Hu frowned and whispered, "What about Nanyue? How can this be so embarrassing?"

Lady Hu smiled and said, "What's that? There are so many things like this among the nobles, not to mention the king. There's nothing wrong with our family being together."

Mrs. Hu glared at her sister in a rare moment, which had no deterrent effect, and said, "Okay, stop talking. The king is still waiting for you. Why don't you get ready and go over there quickly?"

Lady Hu chuckled and stopped teasing her sister. She hurriedly put on her clothes, washed and put on her makeup.

As for Zi Nu, she had indeed fallen asleep, but she woke up the moment Ying Zheng opened the door.

Feeling the familiar breath, she finally felt relieved. She asked the maid to light the lamp, and she stood up directly, deliberately wearing only her inner clothes to greet Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng saw Zi Nu with a graceful figure, swaying in the wind, walking towards him in cool clothes. She first gave him a wink before bowing gracefully.

After the attack, Zi Nu leaned against Ying Zheng's chest and said coquettishly, "Why did the king come so late? He didn't even tell me in advance, and didn't let anyone know. I'm not even prepared."

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I have nothing to do today, so I just take a walk. I miss Zi'er."

"Why? Zi'er doesn't like it? Then I'll leave?"

Zi Nu's bright eyes were full of cuteness, and she said coquettishly: "My King~"

Ying Zheng smiled and nodded, then made a gesture to leave.

The golden belt was hooked by Zi Nu's jade hand, and Zi Nu's eyes were charming and moving.

She said in a delicate voice, "Now that the king is here, where else can I go? You are not allowed to go anywhere. You must stay here with me today."

"Oh my, I never thought I would be kidnapped?"

Zi Nu smiled coquettishly, pulled Ying Zheng's golden belt and walked into the inner room. The lights were already on.

"Yes, the king has been kidnapped by me."

"As for how to leave~"

Zi Nu licked her cherry lips and gave Ying Zheng a seductive look.

"That depends on the king."

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and curled his lips: "Zi'er, don't beg for mercy too early."

Zi Nu said nothing, but her eyes were very seductive.

The maid and the wet nurse had already carried Yun Xu to another room.

Ying Zheng stepped forward and hugged Zi Nu's slender waist. Zi Nu directly put her arms around the back of Ying Zheng's neck and looked into Ying Zheng's eyes with her beautiful eyes.

"I am very angry now."

Zi Nu still said nothing, but she had already clung to her lover and stuck to him.

Being carried by Ying Zheng towards the dragon bed, purple rouge was already offered to her with love.

The curtains swayed gently in the wind.

Even the moon seemed a little embarrassed to look at it. Dark clouds from somewhere floated over considerately and blocked the gentle moonlight.

For a moment, there was only candlelight in the hall.

You dare to be stubborn in front of me? You deserve a lesson.

You dare to provoke me, how audacious!

As for Mrs. Hu, she has been tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep since her sister left.

Thinking about my sister's words and the king's words, I couldn't fall asleep.

I fell into a drowsy sleep in the second half of the night, but unfortunately I was still in a trance and had a dream.

The dreams were even more chaotic, and I had to change clothes when I woke up.

The next day, after Ying Zheng left refreshed, it was a long time before Concubine Hu came back yawning. Concubine Zi Nu's child was too noisy, and it was not polite to sleep in her place.

When Lady Hu came back, she dived into bed and continued to catch up on her sleep. She fell into a deep sleep in just a few breaths.

Coincidentally, Mrs. Hu didn't get up either. It was a rare occasion for her to stay in bed, after all, she fell asleep too late yesterday.

Lady Hu was asleep, but Mrs. Hu was woken up by the noise.
