The Prodigal Son

Qin Yu chatted with Zhao Luan in the imperial study for a while before Zhao Luan sent him off to bathe and change.

Qin Yu lay in the large bathtub with his eyes closed, waiting for the palace maid to scrub his back, his mind still preoccupied with the matter of the Nine Dragon Pendant.

However, he waited for a long time but was not served by a palace maid.

Qin Yu opened his eyes and looked behind him, only to find that there were no palace maids behind him.

Holy crap?

Did they slip away while I was thinking about something?

It must have been Zhao Luan who told them!

This woman is too possessive!

You see, in the past, he not only arranged for palace maids to help him scrub his back and bathe, but he even deliberately let the palace maids flirt with him.

Now, there isn't even a palace maid standing by to add hot water!

So you don't want other women to see your fit body?

After this, wouldn't he have to lock himself in the palace and not have friendly interactions with any woman other than her?

Got it!

Do it yourself!

Qin Yu closed his eyes again, thinking about the Nine Dragon Pendant as he cleaned it.

"Squeak..."

The door was gently pushed open.

Qin Yu closed his eyes and instructed, "Add more hot water later; this water is hot enough!"

However, there was no response, only the sound of light footsteps and rustling.

Qin Yu noticed something was wrong and suddenly turned his head to look, only to see Zhao Luan slowly walking towards him while undressing.

Oh!

Good heavens!

Is she going to take a bath with him?

Facing Qin Yu's burning gaze, Zhao Luan couldn't help but show a hint of shyness on her face, but she still tried her best to appear poised and graceful, constantly negotiating with herself in her heart.

Qin Yu has seen my body before, so what's there to be ashamed of?

I am the Empress of Great Ning!

We can't let that bastard see this as a joke!

Despite repeatedly telling herself this, Zhao Luan's blush deepened.

When the last piece of clothing was removed, Zhao Luan's perfect figure was fully revealed to Qin Yu.

Her incredibly long legs made Qin Yu's eyes widen in disbelief.

Zhao Luan was extremely embarrassed, but she forced herself to adopt the imposing manner of an empress and glared at Qin Yu: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and help me up!"

However, she didn't know that the more she acted like an empress, the more alluring she became to Qin Yu.

Who could resist conquering a beautiful empress?

Qin Yu was burning with desire. He immediately stood up, pulled Zhao Luan, who had come to the bathtub, into the tub, and began to caress her perfect body, asking with a wicked grin, "Is Your Majesty trying to seduce me?"

"Pooh!"

Zhao Luan spat lightly, "Do I need to tease a lecher like you?"

"Yes, of course we need it!"

Qin Yu laughed heartily, "Being teased by the Empress of Da Ning, I get excited just thinking about it!"

"Pooh!"

Zhao Luan spat again, forcing back his embarrassment, and said, "Before you set off for Dingzhou, I said that when you returned, I would reward you handsomely! This is my reward!"

"This reward is far from enough!"

Qin Yu chuckled, "I'm not someone who can be satisfied with such a small reward!"

Zhao Luan bit her thin lips, widened her eyes, and glared at him: "Then what other reward do you want?"

"Your Majesty, I demand your presence!"

Qin Yu's gaze was burning with passion, and he didn't give Zhao Luan a chance to refuse before kissing her lips.

"Mmm..."

Zhao Luan weakly patted Qin Yu a few times, but her body went limp and she lay in Qin Yu's arms, letting Qin Yu take liberties with her.

"etc!"

Just as Qin Yu was about to possess her completely, Zhao Luan escaped from Qin Yu's arms like a startled fawn.

"Your Majesty, you're not going to play hard to get with me, are you?"

Qin Yu looked at Zhao Luan with a dark expression, "If that's how you want to be, then I'll have to force myself on you today!"

"You dare!"

Zhao Luan's beautiful eyes widened. "If you dare to do anything reckless, I'll castrate you!"

"Is Your Majesty willing to part with it?"

Qin Yu laughed and pulled Zhao Luan into his arms.

"asshole!"

Zhao Luan's imperial aura vanished in an instant. Biting her red lips, she met Qin Yu's restless eyes and said guiltily, "I am the Empress of Great Ning! You...you dare to take me here, you'll never be able to touch me again in this lifetime!"

"Oh……"

Qin Yu deliberately dragged out the last syllable of his sentence, a mischievous grin on his face as he put his arm around Zhao Luan: "Not here, but the palace will do, right?"

Zhao Luan didn't reply, but instead pinched Qin Yu in embarrassment and annoyance.

Qin Yu chuckled and whispered mischievously in Zhao Luan's ear, "Then let's take a bath quickly..."

Qin Yu's voice grew softer and softer, and Zhao Luan's face grew redder and redder.

Ignoring her own pain, Zhao Luan grabbed Qin Yu's waist and began to twist it repeatedly.

This smutty bastard!

She strongly suspected that this lecherous man had come all this way back not for negotiations with Bei Qi at all.

He just wants to come back and bully me!

but……

I really want to be bullied by him too!

Zhao Luan's grip on Qin Yu lessened, and she lay limply in Qin Yu's arms.

"I'm done washing!"

Qin Yu's eyes were bloodshot. He quickly helped Zhao Luan get dressed, and then dressed himself with lightning speed.

Zhao Luan stretched out her jade-like arm to encircle Qin Yu's neck, her face full of alluring charm: "Carry me out of here!"

"what?"

Qin Yu was taken aback. "Your Majesty... are you sure?"

Although love between men and women is normal, she is, after all, an empress!

Even in front of the palace guards, the Empress's dignity still had to be maintained.

"Sure!"

Zhao Luan's gaze was resolute, and her breathing was unusually rapid: "Carry me... to the palace! Now!"

Qin Yu simply couldn't refuse such a request!

The next moment, Qin Yu picked up Zhao Luan and quickly walked out of the room, striding towards her palace.

Seeing Zhao Luan being held in Qin Yu's arms, all the palace maids and guards who had accompanied them stared wide-eyed in disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.

OMG!

What did I see?

The Marquis of Qin just embraced His Majesty as if no one else was around?

His Majesty offered no resistance, nestling against Qin Yu's chest like a little bird.

Although many people in the palace suspected that there was something between Qin Yu and Zhao Luan, they only dared to think about it in their hearts and no one dared to say it out loud.

But now, they've seen it with their own eyes!

Zhao Luan seemed to be telling everyone in this way: You guessed right, I do have a relationship with Qin Yu!

Everyone stared in shock at the scene, completely forgetting that they should have silently turned away in this situation.

Under the astonished gazes of everyone, Qin Yu, like a general who had won a great victory, carried Zhao Luan all the way to her palace.

The palace maid at the door was stunned for a moment, then quickly closed the door to their bedchamber and silently retreated.

Upon arriving at the palace, Qin Yu, without a word, carried Zhao Luan and laid her down on the soft couch, gazing at her with burning eyes: "Your Majesty, I..."

Before Qin Yu could finish speaking, Zhao Luan silenced him with a kiss.

Qin Yu was completely captivated by Zhao Luan's enthusiasm and responded passionately to hers...
