Transmigrating into a book, seducing him to rise to power
Chapter 11 Morning Rising
There was no need to attend the morning court session today. After waking up, Jun Zechen gazed at the woman who was still fast asleep in his arms.
She had her back to him, her alabaster-white back pressed tightly against his chest.
Jun Zechen's gaze slowly moved downwards. He had never imagined that he would be so unrestrained and reckless in matters of the bedroom.
When he was with Ling Yue, although she was bold, she was still shy and thin-skinned in that area, so he would never deliberately bully her.
But last night, despite her reluctance, the woman was forced to comply with his pressure.
Jun Zechen didn't know what was wrong with him; he longed for her to sink into depravity with him.
But even in the end, did she really become addicted to it?
It was only him who couldn't control his body or his wildly beating heart.
From the first time he saw her, he was stunned by her stunning beauty. Although he was unwilling to admit it, his lustful body betrayed him honestly.
But he was not a beast; his emotions did not stem from mere physical attraction.
Afterwards, Jun Zechen deliberately ignored her, wanting to see if she was as heartless and ruthless as the other concubines in the palace, only caring about personal gain.
He tested her again and again, and she swallowed her anger time and time again. Jun Zechen only saw her kind, generous, sensible, and always thinking of others.
After testing her until the very end, she discovered that she was the one with a despicable heart, and he had unknowingly undergone a qualitative change in his attitude towards her.
He wanted her to be his real woman.
However, Jun Zechen was unwilling to admit that his feelings for Ling Yue had changed.
He clearly hated his father's harem of three thousand concubines, and he clearly longed since childhood for his father to only dote on his mother.
So when he decided on Ling Yue, he silently vowed in his heart that his wife would receive his unique love.
But now, the appearance of the woman in his arms has shattered his faith of more than a decade.
Even at this moment, he couldn't distinguish what liking someone meant.
He thought he liked Ling Yue, but his body told him that he could also like someone else.
What exactly is the feeling of liking someone?
Is it an uncontrollable madness and longing for Su Jingyao, or a heartache filled with guilt for Ling Yue?
Complex emotions swirled in Jun Zechen's heart, but these confusions did not disturb his mind. Jun Zechen was rational and strong.
He will only make the choice that is best for him.
Ling Yue and Su Jingyao are both his women. As long as he lets go of his resentment, the two of them will not be in conflict!
"Um……"
A woman's soft moan escaped her lips. Her eyes slowly opened like butterfly wings, still slightly hazy, and her brows furrowed as if she were slightly uncomfortable.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, revealing her displeasure.
Su Jingyao could feel the man's warm hands sliding and caressing her waist and abdomen, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Perhaps not fully awake yet, she muttered in dissatisfaction, "Take it away."
Her voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of hoarseness, as if it were overflowing from deep in her throat, carrying a touch of unintentional coquetry.
As she spoke, she tried to break free from the embrace of the person behind her. Just as she was about to move aside, the man's large hand suddenly tightened, holding her even closer.
"Where do you want to go?"
A deep, magnetic male voice sounded behind Su Jingyao, its tone almost seductive, drawing her in irresistibly.
The two were so close at that moment that the man's lips were almost touching her ear.
The warm breath sprayed onto her skin, making her shiver involuntarily.
Su Jingyao flinched, then suddenly turned around, her watery eyes staring straight at him.
"Your Highness..."
Her eyes held a hint of confusion and shyness.
Lying in his arms, her fair skin glowed with a captivating luster in the morning light.
Recalling the madness of last night, scene after scene kept flashing through her mind.
She was clearly very comfortable inside, but she had to pretend to be unwilling, and then she had to act out the contradictory feeling of her body being uncontrollably drawn in and pulled by him.
worn out.
Jun Zechen saw that she looked surprised, and her delicate, fair face was flushed with a beautiful pink blush like a peach blossom.
He couldn't help but reach out and lift her chin with his finger, a gentle yet possessive gesture.
"What are you thinking about?"
He was very close to her, so close that his breath brushed against her face, and his deep voice seemed to vibrate in her eardrums.
Su Jingyao came to her senses, her eyes glistening with tears.
"I thought Your Highness had already gone to court; I didn't know Your Highness was still here."
"I am on leave today. I did not know that my concubine would wake up so late every day."
Jun Zechen's tone was teasing.
Upon hearing his slander, Su Jingyao's delicate face wrinkled, and her beautiful eyes widened slightly.
"No, I didn't. I usually go to bed early and get up around 7 AM. It was clearly Your Highness who was too fierce last night..."
As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered, and her face turned even redder, the blush spreading from her cheeks to her ears, making one want to take a bite.
Jun Zechen seemed to enjoy seeing her like this, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his deep eyes.
He pressed on, asking, "What's wrong with me?"
Su Jingyao pursed her lips; her shamelessness was no match for the man in front of her.
She could only whisper a cheesy, unspoken remark before shyly hiding herself under the covers.
Jun Zechen chuckled when he heard the answer he was satisfied with, and stopped teasing her.
"It's already past 9 AM, get up and have breakfast."
Jun Zechen then released her waist, stood up, and put on his clothes.
Hearing the commotion, Anshun came in.
Su Jingyao lay on her side on the bed, only her beautiful face visible, watching Jun Zechen change his clothes through the bed curtains.
After changing his clothes, Jun Zechen turned his head and glanced at the woman lying lazily behind the red veil. The woman's charming and alluring appearance from last night instantly came to mind.
She is truly born with a seductive nature.
A sudden urge to wander made Jun Zechen's body restless. He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and stepped out of the bedroom.
After he left, Su Jingyao slowly stood up, her long, silky hair falling down and swaying slightly with her movements.
"My lord, you have finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel."
Miaoyun helped her mistress to her feet, her face beaming with barely suppressed joy.
She helped Su Jingyao up, and saw that her body was covered with dense red marks, like blooming flowers, which were particularly eye-catching on her fair and flawless skin.
Even as a woman, Miaoyun couldn't help but blush and feel her heart race when she saw this, finding it hard to control herself.
How could His Highness the Crown Prince have been able to play along with his master in the Xiyan Palace all this time? How could he possibly resist the temptation of his master's beauty?
Su Jingyao casually draped a dress over her shoulders. The dress was light and airy, flowing like clouds over her body, giving her an ethereal and fairy-like appearance.
With Miaoyun's help, she walked somewhat unsteadily to the dressing table and sat down.
That bastard last night was so ruthless, like he hadn't touched a woman in ages, he took from her like crazy, to the point that her legs are trembling when she walks now.
Not to mention the numerous bruises and marks all over his body, each one seemingly telling the story of the passion and madness of the previous night.
Su Jingyao looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes inadvertently revealing a hint of allure. Her eyes sparkled, her face was as rosy as spring, and she was truly a beauty that could topple kingdoms.
It is said that one can only win favor with one's looks for a short time, but when it comes to infiltrating the enemy, beauty is a stepping stone.
Su Jingyao casually picked out a purple ointment from among the many jars on the dressing table.
Upon seeing this, a strange light flashed in Miaoyun's eyes.
Does the master really want to avoid having a child?
Although she had doubts, she had served her master since childhood and had learned a lot from his teachings and ways of dealing with people.
She knew that as long as her master didn't say anything, there were some things she didn't need to ask.
Su Jingyao opened the small jar, which contained pearl powder, and hidden underneath was a pill.
She carefully took out the pill with tweezers, gently wiped it, and swallowed it without hesitation.
Su Jingyao would not get pregnant now; her child must be born amidst Jun Zechen's anticipation and joy.
Moreover, now is not a suitable time to get pregnant. If she were to get pregnant now, what reason would Jun Zechen have to "betray" Ling Yue, and what reason would he have to come to Xiyan Palace?
Thinking of this, Su Jingyao couldn't help but chuckle softly.
She's still so understanding.
There has to be a way for that scoundrel to get down, otherwise how can Jun Zechen keep deceiving himself?
After washing up briefly, Su Jingyao walked gracefully to the dining room.
Jun Zechen sat upright, his posture as straight as a pine tree. As he sat there, he exuded an innate sense of majesty.
Upon seeing her come out, Anshun quickly and methodically arranged for people to bring in the meals one by one.
Su Jingyao walked to Jun Zechen's side, gave a slight curtsy, and then sat down next to him.
After they sat down, an awkward atmosphere filled the air between them, as if there was an invisible barrier between them, making them both feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Jun Zechen lowered his eyes slightly and began to eat the food in front of him, while Su Jingyao sat quietly without touching her chopsticks.
"Why don't you use it?"
Jun Zechen's voice broke the silence, and his gaze inadvertently swept towards Su Jingyao.
"My breakfast has already been prepared by Miaoyue and will be served shortly," Su Jingyao explained softly.
When Jun Zechen heard her say this, he realized that her diet seemed unusually different.
About fifteen minutes later, Miaoxia and Miaoyue came in carrying the meal.
Miaoyue gently placed the dishes in front of Su Jingyao one by one: jasmine tofu soup, lotus-scented cake, and honey-floured jujube flowers, while Miaoxia followed behind carrying a pot of peony flower tea.
Jun Zechen looked at the food made of flowers in front of her; each one was so exquisite that it was breathtaking.
Jasmine tofu soup is served in a small, exquisite bowl, exuding a faint jasmine fragrance; lotus-scented cake is as lifelike as a blooming lotus flower; and honey-floating crispy lotus flower is even more eye-catching, like a fine work of art.
These three small bowls of food would probably take even a skilled chef one or two hours to prepare.
"Does my Consort Su eat these elegant dishes for breakfast every day?"
Jun Zechen looked at Su Jingyao with a mixture of curiosity and teasing in his eyes.
"Your Highness, please don't tease me. Although these are all dishes made of flowers, each one tastes quite good. Would Your Highness like to try some?"
Su Jingyao picked up her chopsticks, took out a jasmine tofu soup, and handed it to Jun Zechen, introducing the dish in a gentle tone.
"This dish is made primarily with tofu and jasmine flowers. It is not only delicious but also has beauty and skin-nourishing effects."
Even without her saying it, Jun Zechen could tell at a glance that these dishes were definitely beauty-enhancing foods. Her care for her appearance was truly astonishing.
Jun Zechen took a small bite, and his expression changed from indifference to surprise. It wasn't as bland as he had imagined; instead, it was refreshing and delicious, leaving a lingering fragrance in his mouth, and even a bit unforgettable.
"It's really good."
Jun Zechen nodded.
With a smile, Su Jingyao placed another dish of honey-glazed fried jujube flowers on his plate.
Every movement she made seemed meticulously crafted, carrying a unique charm, as she continued gently, "This was also made with jasmine, and it's coated with honey. It's not only delicious, but it also moisturizes the skin."
Jun Zechen never liked to talk much while eating, but listening to her speak in a slow and gentle tone made him feel very comfortable and made him even more curious about her food.
After that, she stopped using the meals served by Anshun and instead tried each of her flower dishes one by one.
Jun Zechen picked up a piece of pastry, put it in his mouth and savored it carefully, then asked, "This lotus-scented cake seems different from other lotus-based pastries?"
"This lotus-scented cake is made with low-gloss lotus, whose flowers and leaves do not wither easily, and eating it can keep your breath fresh."
"When I ordered the pastries to be made, I specifically requested that the original flavor of the lotus be preserved, so the technique and recipe were extremely important during the making process."
Su Jingyao explained patiently, her eyes focused and serious.
"My Eastern Palace has no one with such abilities. Who prepared your meals?"
"Most of my meals are prepared by Miaoyue herself."
Su Jingyao looked at Miaoyue standing to the side. Miaoyue was standing there with her head down, looking somewhat shy.
Jun Zechen glanced at Miaoyue and nodded slightly, saying, "Indeed, she's quite good."
How do you know all this?
Jun Zechen was genuinely curious. He felt that she always managed to bring him some special surprises, allowing him to see a different side of her.
"I have only loved reading since I was a child. Your Highness has never heard of the saying, 'In the morning I drink the dew that falls from the magnolia, and in the evening I eat the fallen petals of the autumn chrysanthemum. Thus, I am as graceful as jade and as elegant as an otherworldly being.'"
Su Jingyao smiled and asked in return, her eyes clear and bright, with a hint of playfulness and liveliness.
Then she joked, "Indeed, Your Highness is already exceptionally handsome, unparalleled in the world, so there's no need for me to drink dew and eat flower petals like you do."
Jun Zechen knew he was good-looking, but no one had ever praised him like that to his face, and no one dared to compliment his appearance.
"His beauty is unparalleled, unmatched in the world." Was he really that good in her heart?
Jun Zechen glanced at her, and the woman before him truly deserved the title of "a beauty that stands out among the crowd, making all other beauties pale in comparison."
He wanted to advise her that someone as beautiful as her didn't need to force herself to eat these things, but then he thought that if she was already used to them, then it was a kind of enjoyment for her.
It seems perfectly natural for someone as ethereal as her to consume these exquisite flower cakes and floral dews.
Why should the food of ordinary people defile her body?
Do you like flowers?
"Of course I like it."
Su Jingyao smiled and met Jun Zechen's gaze with a bright smile.
"In two days it will be the Flower Festival of the Kingdom. On the day of the Flower Festival, the streets and alleys of the entire capital will be filled with flowers, and there will be no curfew at night."
The Flower Festival is a very important festival in the Kingdom of Jun. Many unmarried men and women will pledge their love on this day. The Kingdom of Jun also has the tradition of praying for blessings on the Flower Festival. On this day, the whole Kingdom of Jun will be exceptionally lively.
Jun Zechen had promised Ling Yue that he would take her out of the palace to play every year during the Flower Festival.
This year......
Jun Zechen glanced at her indifferently beside him.
When Su Jingyao heard about the Flower Festival, the smile on her face faded slightly, and she lowered her eyes, seemingly quite disappointed.
Jun Zechen frowned slightly and said calmly, "If you also wish to participate in the Flower Festival, I can take you out of the palace that day."
Su Jingyao lowered her head, her eyes filled with obvious sadness.
"Doesn't Your Highness need to stay with my sister?"
A strange emotion flashed in Jun Zechen's eyes. He had indeed promised Ling Yue that he would accompany her out of the palace every year during the Flower Festival.
but……
His gaze fell once again on Su Jingyao, who had her head bowed. Seeing her so dejected yet trying to appear magnanimous, he felt a strange pang of pity.
He then calmly asked, "Is there a problem with me taking the two of you out of the palace?"
"I'm just worried that you might not be happy."
Su Jingyao's words were full of concern for Ling Yue, but she had a different thought in her heart.
Her curled eyelashes concealed the cold sarcasm in her eyes; the scoundrel really had become an open scumbag once he got what he wanted.
"Does Consort Su think that if she goes with me, she can influence me and the Crown Princess?"
Jun Zechen narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at her sharply.
Even if he and Ling Yue were surrounded by a hundred women, it wouldn't affect their relationship.
Jun Zechen was practically the first ancient man she had ever met, so how could he be so arrogant!
Suppressing her discomfort, she said softly, "I dare not think such a thing. I will be content as long as I can conceive Your Highness's child and fulfill His Majesty and the Empress's expectations."
"I am deeply grateful that Your Highness is willing to take me out of the palace on the Flower Festival."
Su Jingyao raised her head, her expression calm and respectful.
That scoundrel had better remember what I said today; hopefully, he won't be proven wrong too soon.
"It's good that the concubine knows. I've finished eating, and I still have state affairs to attend to."
After saying that, Jun Zechen stood up, straightened his clothes, and turned to walk out.
Su Jingyao rose and curtsied, "This concubine respectfully sees Your Highness off."
After watching Jun Zechen leave, Su Jingyao sat back down, her expression relaxed and content.
Pick up your chopsticks again and continue to slowly enjoy your food.
She will definitely give Jun Zechen and Ling Yue an unforgettable memory during the Flower Festival.
