Xie Jie's breath was stagnant, and his eyes were filled with darkness.
He adjusted his posture to cover up the movement, but his fingertips uncontrollably fell on Ahaya's waist and pulled her towards him.
This is Daxu’s annual banquet.
Even if you want to show this special existence to the court, it has gone too far.
I'm afraid that once the New Year is over, the snowflakes of impeachment will flood his desk.
How clear his reason is, how dark and crazy the lust in his eyes is.
"His Majesty."
Ahya half-closed her eyes, as if she was drunk and lost her mind. She reached out to touch his face, but she suddenly pulled her hand back before touching him.
She sat up hurriedly, her face covered with blush, as if she finally realized her loss of composure, her voice trembled slightly, but became more and more seductive.
"I am drunk."
She explained, feeling so embarrassed that she wanted to shrink into a hole in the ground: "Let me go out and get some air."
"Now do you know you are afraid?" Xie Jie's Adam's apple rolled up, his voice was hoarse and frightening, his eyes were like hungry wolves, staring at Ahaya, his face was still slow and calm, but it became more and more frightening.
Ahaya lowered her eyes, feeling the frighteningly hot gaze on her body, and couldn't help but feel a bit of regret in her heart.
You shouldn't provoke this crazy and inhuman dog emperor out of anger.
"I'm really drunk." There seemed to be a pool of autumn water in her eyes, and her timid look made her look even more vulnerable. Her voice was soft and weak, "Please spare me this time."
Xie Jie's eyes deepened further. He held Ahaya's hand, rubbed it suggestively, and said in a low voice.
"Go back and teach you a lesson."
I won’t go back to Qiongzhi Hall tonight.
Ahaya trembled, and the first thing that popped into her mind was the idea of escaping.
She didn't dare to look at Xie Jie anymore and quickly retracted her hand. Without caring about etiquette, she stood up hastily and ran away as if running away.
The snow outside the palace had stopped for some time, and the palace was illuminated by twilight.
The people in the palace lowered their heads. Even in the bustling New Year's Eve, they were still as quiet as puppets, as if they were in a different world from the singing and dancing in the palace.
Ahaya couldn't help but frown slightly and slowly looked away.
"Brother."
A soft voice sounded through a bush of flowers, making it difficult to hear clearly.
Ahaya was stunned for a moment, then heard Lin Heng's concerned words.
"In the palace...is Your Majesty treating you well?"
"Your Majesty treats me well." Lin Wuyue lowered her head, making people unable to see the expression on her face. Her voice was calm, making people want to relax.
"That's good." Lin Heng seemed to want to say something more, and paused again. After a long time, he just sighed, "Mom...she misses you very much. If you have free time, please send more letters to home."
"I didn't grow up at home." Lin Wuyue chuckled, her tone still soft, but very cold.
Aren't they brothers and sisters?
Ahaya couldn't help but frown slightly and thought to herself.
When Lin Heng mentioned his sister to her, his tone was clearly one of love and care. This beauty Lin was recognized as a soft-spoken child in the palace.
How could such a pair of brothers and sisters be so estranged that they could be so divided?
"I'm sorry for you."
Lin Heng's voice seemed a little bitter, confused and sad, like a child who had done something wrong.
It is hard for Ahaya to imagine that Mr. Lin, who is as gentle as Heng, would have such a mood.
Her brows furrowed more and more tightly, and her mind couldn't help but recall the beauty Lin from her previous life...
In her previous life, Beauty Lin had never been involved in a palace fight. Even Xie Jie seemed to ignore her and never let her sleep with her.
But can a woman who is truly unpopular with the king really live so comfortably in a palace where she is flattered and downtrodden?
Lin Wuyue died before her. After her death, Xie Jie ordered a thorough investigation, and the final cause of death was found to be depression.
Depression...
Ahaya felt that the mystery in her heart was getting bigger and bigger. Her intuition told her that there might be a secret behind this.
"Crunch."
The branches that were broken by the snow were trampled to pieces again, making a dull sound.
Ahaya came to her senses immediately and realized that at some point, the Lin family brothers and sisters had gotten very close.
It's too late to escape at this point.
Her expression changed, her eyes suddenly became hazy, she adjusted her posture, held on to the flower branches, and walked forward slowly.
It was as if I was awakened by the cold wind and had just come here.
"Miss Ahya?"
Lin Heng spotted her first, stood there, kept a certain distance from her, and held her hand far away.
Ahaya half-closed her eyes, held her forehead with one hand, and slowly turned her head to look at him. It took a while before she realized what she was doing.
"It turns out to be Mr. Lin."
Her voice was a little hoarse, she took a deep breath, rubbed her face to wake herself up, and smiled.
"Long time no see."
Lin Wuyue stood next to Lin Heng. Seeing that they knew each other, she had no intention of asking questions. She just kept silent as it had nothing to do with her.
Lin Heng did not forget her. He turned to look at his sister with soft eyes and introduced her: "This is Miss Aheya. We were friends when we were in Wancheng."
Ahaya's eyes naturally fell on Lin Wuyue, her lips curled up invisibly, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
She seemed to know why the tyrant's confidant, Mr. Lin Henglin, could clearly see her intentions and still have friendship with her so easily.
It turned out that she had planned to give Lin Wuyue a hand in the palace.
If she is favored, Lin Wuyue will naturally benefit from it. If she is not favored, there will be one more way to offend someone.
It is said that when parents love their children, they have far-reaching plans. The same goes for an elder brother towards his younger sister.
She had confidence in her heart, but she did not criticize Lin Heng. Instead, she followed his intention and nodded towards Lin Wuyue, with a genuine smile on her face.
"What Mr. Lin said is true." She tilted her head, looking at the beauty as cold and gentle as the moonlight, and couldn't help but sigh a little, "Your brother and I have met each other for the first time, but we have also met each other for the first time.
Can we be considered friends?"
"May I have your name?"
"The concubines in the palace are not called by their names, only by their titles and positions."
Lin Wuyue shook her head, her eyes reflecting the moonlight, becoming more gentle, "I am Lin Meiren."
"Concubines are not called concubines, but friends are not."
Ahaya smiled, stretched out her hand, broke off a flower, and handed it to her.
She knew that with Lin Wuyue's temperament, she could not refuse her kindness.
"There are so many rules in this forbidden palace. If you follow them all, what's the point of living a good life?"
Lin Wuyue looked at her steadily, seemingly helpless. After a while, she answered: "Wuyue. Lin Wuyue."
"Wu Yue." Ahaya recited it once, with a smile on her lips, and put the flower branch into her hand, "In a few days, I will go to your palace to play with you, okay?"
She tried to make a promise, but it couldn't be now.
The limelight at the annual banquet just now was too great. In the past few days, if Concubine De did not take action, she would really respond to the word "virtue".
Lin Wuyue is a rare good person in the harem, and Aheya does not want to implicate her with her own affairs.
Lin Wuyue sighed, his eyes were clean, and he didn't say yes or no.
That is the default.
Ahaya's eyebrows were curved, and she cast a proud look at Lin Heng.
You owe me one.
She said this through her mouth. This chapter has been completed!
