I Don't Know Martial Art

Smelling the fragrance coming from Yun Yue Ji"s body and feeling the supple and tender body in his embrace, Xiang Lingfeng"s body also became hot. His throat felt dry as he reached out his hand to caress Yun Yue Ji"s body.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" The man"s voice was shrill and urgent.

Xiang Lingfeng, who was about to take his next move, was startled by this shout. With a furious expression, he turned his head to look at the newcomer and shouted: "How dare you, Wei Hongying! Who let you in!"

The person who had come was none other than the Chief Eunuch, Wei Hongying. Upon hearing Xiang Lingfeng"s angry berating voice and seeing the scene in the pavilion, Wei Hongying was taken aback. He quickly kneeled on the ground, not daring to raise his head as his body trembled.

"Your Majesty, forgive me! Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Wei Hongying kowtowed to show his mercy while grumbling in his heart. He was obviously infuriating himself for disturbing the emperor and his favoured imperial concubine.

"Hmph, just what is going on? Why did you barge in in such a fl.u.s.ter?"

Your Majesty, an urgent military message was sent from the front. The Military Department"s Minister, Han Fang Bai, entered the palace overnight to seek an audience with His Majesty, while Minister Han was still waiting for His Majesty in the imperial study. This old servant didn"t dare slight His Majesty, thus offending Long Yan unintentionally.

Hearing this, Xiang Lingfeng frowned slightly as a hint of doubt flashed across his eyes. "Han Fang Bai has come to seek an audience?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xiang Lingfeng finally let go of Yun Yue. The latter hurriedly broke free from Xiang Lingfeng"s embrace and leaned against a corner of the pavilion, looking at Xiang Lingfeng with a wary expression.

Xiang Lingfeng glanced at Yun Yue Ji, his heart feeling somewhat unwilling. However, in the end, he said to Wei Hongying who was kneeling down: "Return to the Imperial Study!"

At this moment, the maid dressed in red quickly walked over and supported Yun Yue Ji. She asked with concern, "Empress, are you alright?"

Yun Yue gently shook her head and said, "Lian"er, I"m fine. Help me up. I"m a bit tired, so I want to go back and rest."

"Don"t tell me about him. I don"t want to talk about him." Yun Yue interrupted Lian-er.

Lian`er was somewhat helpless as she tried to persuade him, "Esteemed Empress, don"t say that. His Majesty is the ruler of the Empire of Feng Yun, the current Son of Heaven. For you to become his beloved imperial concubine, how many people cannot hope for that. Why must you resist so?"

"This will do you no good at all. Why don"t you try to obey His Majesty? This is good for both you and His Majesty."

Yun Yue shook her head indifferently and said, "So what if you are the ruler of nine or five years? So what if you are the Son of Heaven?" I, Yun Yue, do not love him. Even if he sends the moon and stars in the sky to me, my heart will still be cold. I will not love him, nor will I submit to him! "

Hearing these words, Lian-Er"s face turned pale with fright and she quickly reminded, "Your Highness, this is the Imperial Palace of the Wind Cloud Country, not our Shuiyue Country. The Moon Embracing Hall has many ears and eyes.

If you say so, you can"t say. "

Then, Lian-er sighed again, "Lian-er has been by the princess" side since childhood, accompanying you as you grew up, and then as you came to the Wind Cloud Kingdom, how could Lian-er not know the princess" temperament? But, Princess, please don"t forget, other than being the imperial concubine, you are also the princess of Shuiyue Country."

Lian`er didn"t continue her sentence, but her meaning was clear. The Wind Cloud Nation should not be offended, and this emperor should not be neglected.

"It is said that being born in the monarch"s house is a blessing cultivated from my previous life. Although I am a princess of the Shuiyue Kingdom, I am now just a chess piece that my father used to rope in the Windy Nation."

Lian-Er persuaded him, "Your Highness, although Lian-Er is a maid, she understands a principle. People can"t live life to their heart"s content. Sometimes, it"s hard to avoid begging for help."

When he heard this, Yun Yue Ji could not help but reveal a sorrowful expression as she looked into the distance. Her eyes gradually dimmed, but when he saw that there was a trace of starlight shining in the darkness, he was suddenly moved.

"No!" Yun Yue said with determination, "Lian"er, life is like gra.s.s being born into spring. Rather than living for someone else for a hundred years, why not live for yourself? I, Yun Yue, don"t want a glorious life, but I want to live for myself."

"No one can force me to do what I don"t want to do, not even Xiang Lingfeng. If I really bring disaster upon the Shuiyue Kingdom, at worst, I"ll just die as a martyr. Lian-er, don"t worry, I"ll think of a good way out for you, and I won"t implicate you in any way!"

Seeing the look in Yun Yue Ji"s eyes, Lian"er couldn"t help but be moved. She knelt in front of Yun Yue Ji and said.

"Your Highness, what are you saying? Lian`er has been following you ever since I was a child, you treat me like a sister. Lian`er has long regarded you as the only family in the world, and since Your Highness has already made her decision, even if I had to sacrifice my life, I wouldn"t leave Your Highness!"

Yun Yue"s expression changed and she hurriedly pulled Lian-er up. "Silly Lian-er, quickly get up. Is there a need to be like this between us?"

The two of them abandoned the knot in their hearts and continued walking. After walking for a while, Lian-er started to worry a little as she spoke.

"But Your Highness, I can see that His Majesty is determined to get you, and I"m afraid that he will often visit the Moon Embracing Hall in the coming days. If His Majesty does something beyond his means, Princess, how will you respond?"

Although Yun Yue Ji"s will was firm, Xiang Lingfeng was the master of the entire palace. If he wanted to forcibly take Yun Yue Ji"s body, no one would be able to stop him, just like today. If Wei Hongying hadn"t come, Yun Yue Ji"s consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Yue said to Lian"er, "Lian"er, you don"t have to worry. Tomorrow, go to the Phoenix Cry Palace for me."

Yun Yue Ji"s lips curved into a charming smile as she said, "That"s right. I"m the one who asked you to go find the Sixth Princess. Tell her that I"ve been staying at the Moon Embracing Hall by myself for the past few days. I"m so depressed that I"ve asked her to come and stay with me for a while!"

"Yeah!"

The Sixth Princess is the most beloved daughter of His Majesty the Emperor. If the Sixth Princess were to stay in the Moon Embracing Hall and accompany the princess, even if His Majesty were to ride the Moon Embracing Hall, he would definitely not make any mistakes.

"It was done."

Seeing this, Lian`er helplessly threw up her hands and teased as her eyes rotated.

Yun Yue could not help but glare at Lian-er when she heard this. She twisted Lian-er"s waist and said, "Where did you learn to use such frivolous words to tease me?"

Lian-Er quickly ran to the front, but she turned around and smiled at Yun Yue.

Hearing this, Yun Yue"s face turned red with embarra.s.sment as she said, "d.a.m.n you, Lian`er is spouting nonsense again. See if I can"t teach you a lesson!" As she spoke, Yun Yue Ji chased after Lian-er!

Lian-er stuck out her tongue and turned to run, laughing as she shouted, "Imperial Concubine, spare me!"

The master and the servant chased each other around the courtyard. Yun Yue Ji who was previously as cold as an ice sculpture was now as innocent as a young girl. Her front and back was as though they were two different people.

Far away from the Moon Embracing Hall, in the Emperor"s Imperial Study, Xiang Lingfeng sat on the Dragon Throne in front of his desk. He looked at the Minister of War, Han Fang Bai, bowing respectfully in front of him.

Xiang Lingfeng closed the imperial report in his hand and tossed it onto the study table before him. Lifting his eyes to look at Han Fang Bai, he asked calmly, "My beloved lady has entered the palace late at night. What is it?"

Han Fangbai hurriedly bowed when he heard this, "Your Majesty, your subject has entered the palace overnight because of the beast tide outbreak that occurred in the northwest of Wind Cloud Country."

Seeing this, Han Fangbai"s eyes glimmered as he silently speculated about the Holy Will. How could the exalted ruler of an empire not know of such an important matter?

However, Han Fangbai was also a smart person, so he did not point it out and answered honestly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, a beast tide has erupted in the Silvermoon Forest at the northwest border. Moreover, the beast tide has already affected the three counties of the northwest, destroying two counties of the Eastern Tomb Prefecture and the Beishan Prefecture, causing millions of casualties. The other counties of the northwest have already requested a.s.sistance from the Dragon City, so this subject believes that the situation is critical and dares to ask Your Majesty for your a.s.sistance."

"Oh, the beast tide outbreak this time is actually this serious. It has already affected three countries?" A hint of surprise appeared in Xiang Lingfeng"s eyes.

Xiang Lingfeng slapped the dragon in front of him and said, "The situation is so dangerous. How could the Dragon City, as a nation, just sit and do nothing? Of course we have to send reinforcements!"

"Oh?" Han Fang Bai lowered his head. When he heard those words, his eyes were filled with surprise. Xiang Lingfeng"s answer was out of his expectations? Had he thought wrong?
