...

That night.

The empress wore the stars and the moon and reluctantly returned to the palace of Yangxin Hall.

She hesitated in front of the door for a long time and sighed. Today she suppressed King Xiaoyao and all his supporters, which was a happy event for her.

But now facing the bet, her joy turned into sadness.

"Come in." Zhao Wujiang's gentle laughter came from inside the room.

The empress snorted softly and opened the door. The lights inside the room were bright and warm, warm and peaceful...

Except for Zhao Wujiang who was smiling...that's what she said in her heart.

The bet was not very explicit, nor was it very ridiculous. It did not ask her to do things like concubines in the harem, but it was just a small request - that she should sleep with Zhao Wujiang in her arms.

When this request was first made, she couldn't help but feel a strange sense of relief, longing, caution, and a touch of fear in her heart.

Spending time with Zhao Wujiang day and night, at some point, Zhao Wujiang's weight in her heart not only grew, but she understood that she had developed feelings for him.

I don’t know the origin of love.

But she will never admit even a hint of affection.

Xuanyuan Jing is not just Xuanyuan Jing, she is the emperor of Daxia and the helmsman of Daxia. Carrying the expectations of her ancestors, she wants to lead Daxia to prosperity and make Daxia proudly stand on the top of all nations.

She didn't allow any unnecessary emotions to stop her on this path.

The love between children is just a smoke of the past, she told herself over and over again.

So she was afraid of this bet with Zhao Wujiang, and was afraid that at some point when she was fulfilling the bet, she would be unable to control herself.

Zhao Wujiang is as gentle as jade:

"What is it that makes you so worried?"

"Let's change the bet, Zhao Wujiang, I can use my mouth..." The empress looked embarrassed.

"Then just keep it for now, or forget it and don't need to change it." Zhao Wujiang shook his head. Love and desire are different. He, Zhao Wujiang, has no shortage of desire.

As the empress fell into silence and entanglement, Zhao Wujiang smiled gently and added:

"There is no need to change, there is no need to be embarrassed, and there is no need to be entangled. If you don't like it, if you don't want to, just don't do it!

You and I also have a tacit understanding. I won't mind or be unhappy at all. You understand.

don’t worry."

Zhao Wujiang's gentle words touched her ears, and the empress' heart was softly touched. She snorted:

"I am willing to admit defeat. If I lose, I will naturally fulfill my bet."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door:

"Your Majesty, Xiao Lizi is asking for an audience."

"Get out!" the empress said loudly with a majestic look on her face.

There was silence for a moment outside the door, and the footsteps hurried away.

"But, I want to make a three-part agreement." The empress stared at Zhao Wujiang, her eyes trembling slightly as she dodged:

“First, don’t push yourself too far.

Second, you must not be shameless.

..."

Zhao Wujiang smiled and nodded.

...

Bed curtain.

The empress' hands and feet were stiff, like a lifeless life-size doll, and she hugged Zhao Wujiang.

She felt Zhao Wujiang's breath so close at hand, and her heart suddenly started pounding, as if it was about to jump out of her body.

She didn't even dare to look into Zhao Wujiang's eyes. She could feel that Zhao Wujiang's eyes were always staring at her.

"Your Majesty, I remember, you had to take off your clothes before going to bed, why are you wearing clothes today..." Zhao Wujiang was restrained by the empress' hands.

Those who knew clearly knew that they were sleeping, but those who did not know clearly thought that the empress used some kind of grappling technique to restrain Zhao Wujiang so that Zhao Wujiang could not move.

The empress' pretty face was red, but she replied coldly with a straight face: "It's cold in the late autumn night..."

"Aren't you panicking?" Zhao Wujiang asked again. Under the bandage, he could only faintly feel the empress' desire to come out.

The empress took a deep breath: "Shut up."

"Oh..." Zhao Wujiang trailed off in a long voice.

Time ticks, ticks.

One cup of tea, two cups of tea.

Half an hour, an hour.

The empress felt the sound of Zhao Wujiang falling into a deep sleep, and her tense heart finally relaxed.

For an hour now, she was afraid that Zhao Wujiang would take any further and make trouble.

The man's majestic breath came from in front of her, and this breath made her so familiar. It was the breath of the man she had been getting along with day and night these days.

She had never dared to admit that this breath made her feel particularly at ease.

At this moment, the empress was holding Zhao Wujiang. With trembling eyes, she slowly and seriously began to look at the man who was sleeping like a child.

Chiseled cheeks, thick slanting eyebrows, eyes as deep as the night sky under his eyelids, and a tall nose just like his upright posture at all times.

There are also those lips that are a little dry and not very moist. The empress knows that there is still a three-inch tongue in her mouth, which can be used to write every word, a lotus flower blooms in her mouth, and her tongue can compete with other scholars.

Her eyes gradually filled with water, and this face was reflected in the water. She bit her red lips lightly with her silver teeth. Gradually, unconsciously, the ripples in her heart rippled, and the corners of her mouth were raised in a weak arc.

I don’t know where the love started, but it goes deeper and deeper.
