Chapter 537: He Has Lost All Sense Of Reason Now That He Has His Empress
Lu Liangwei, “…”
She could not help blus.h.i.+ng brightly when she noticed that Zhu Yu and the others had lowered their heads quickly.
Long Yang gave a little smile as he glanced at her. He lifted her up and was about to walk to the bedroom.
Right then, Zhao Qian suddenly entered from outside to report, “The Grand Princess and the Prince of Xiangyang are here to greet the Empress.
Long Yang was not happy about this.
Why did those two not come earlier and choose to arrive only now?
“It’s getting late. Get them to return tomorrow.”
Zhao Qian looked at the sky. It was only noon. How could this be considered late?
Lu Liangwei was also stunned, but when she saw the l.u.s.t in the man’s eyes, she gave a start and quickly pushed him on the arm. She said quietly, “Stop fooling around, Your Majesty. This will only serve as a joke to others if news gets out.”
As she said this, she realized Zhao Qian was already getting ready to leave and inform them about the time being late. She quickly called out to him. “Invite them for tea in the main hall. His Majesty and I will be there shortly.”
Zhao Qian felt relieved, and looked at his Master speechlessly. He silently complained, ‘Master has lost all sense of reason now that he has his Empress.’
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Long Yang had no choice but to put Lu Liangwei down when he saw this.
Lu Liangwei quickly backed a few steps away and kept a good distance from him.
Long Yang frowned. “Am I some sort of vicious beast?”
Lu Liangwei thought privately to herself, ‘You’re much more frightening than any vicious beast.’
However, she continued to smile as she said, “Why would His Majesty have such a thought? I’m only thinking about stopping you from losing your authoritative dignity in front of the Grand Princess and the Prince of Xiangyang when they come.”
Long Yang snorted lightly. He moved two steps toward her and pinched her on the chin. “How should I reward the Empress for being so thoughtful for my sake?”
Lu Liangwei slapped his hand away. “Being thoughtful for your sake is my duty. Why should I be rewarded for it?”
She gave a pause before continuing, “Although, if Your Majesty insists on giving me a reward, it’s not nice for me to reject.”
Long Yang burst out in laughter. “So, you’re still aiming at getting rewarded after saying all those words?”
Lu Liangwei pretended to not notice the teasing in his words and maintained the smile on her face as she looked at him seriously. “What would His Majesty like to reward me with?”
Long Yang had just blurted this casually and had not really been thinking about rewarding her.
He rubbed her head and asked, “What would you like? Anything that I have, I promise to give you.”
Lu Liangwei raised an eyebrow at him. “Are you sure I can have anything?”
“Yes.” Long Yang had not realized that he had just walked into a trap.
The next thing he knew, he heard the girl’s happy voice as she replied, “Well then, Your Majesty is not allowed to stay at the Grand Phoenix Palace tonight.”
Long Yang’s eyes narrowed. “What sort of reward is this?”
“Didn’t you say I can have anything? I want to sleep on my own, and that would require Your Majesty’s cooperation, right?” Lu Liangwei replied slyly.
Long Yang choked.
He had thought she would request for gold or some riches. In the end, she had given him an unexpected answer.
“Why don’t you like sleeping with me?”
Lu Liangwei grumbled in her heart. How could she even have a good sleep if she slept with him?
“It’s not that. It’s just that the rules of the Palace state that you can only stay at the Empress’s place on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar month. I was thinking that since yesterday was the fifteenth, that would mean that the next time Your Majesty stays overnight would be the first day of the next Lunar month,” she answered matter-of-factly with a serious look on her face.
Long Yang was speechless. “What the Empress means is for me to sleep at another concubine’s place?”
Lu Liangwei replied, “As long as Your Majesty is happy.”
She was not worried at all that His Majesty would sleep with another woman.
If he was someone like that, he would have already done it before marrying her.
However, the fact was that he was a virgin who had never touched another woman.
