In the sleeping hall.

There was a glass lamp lit beside the couch, which was only enough to illuminate the book in hand under the cover of heavy curtains.

It got dark early and the cold wind blew for a long time during the day. After dinner, Liang Qian went to bed.

However, she was not in good spirits and felt dizzy. She kept looking at the same page, so she simply put her hand aside.

Gu Ya took a look and asked, "Does the Queen Mother want to be accommodated?"

As he said this, he took the clothes that Liang Qian had draped over his shoulders.

Liang Qian lay down and said, "Just keep this lamp on."

"Yes."

Gu Ya had just untied and hooked up the curtain when she heard a loud noise outside. Her face turned pale and she looked at Liang Qian nervously.

"Queen Mother, it's the Lord...but you..."

She was extremely panicked. Fortunately, His Highness had a quick mind that day and deliberately leaked the fact that the Emperor was staying overnight in Hanzhang Palace to the people in Yaohua Palace.

But today, His Highness is gone, what should they do?

As the footsteps approached, she looked back repeatedly.

Liang Qian thought for a moment, then looked up at her and said, "Get some of the tea leaves I got recently, and brew a pot of tea for me."

Gu Ya understood and nodded timidly.

As he was speaking, the person who came in had already walked around the screen.

Gu Ya stepped aside and saluted.

Gao Hao didn't look at her. He walked a few steps to the couch, raised his hand, lifted the curtain and looked inside.

"Why do you rest so early today?"

"emperor--"

Liang Qian hugged the quilt and tried to sit up, but he got there first and held her shoulders.

"Now that you are lying down, there is no need to get up again. I will ask them to serve you."

He glanced at the eunuch and asked, "What are you all still standing there for?"

The waiting eunuchs and palace servants immediately came forward to help him change clothes and wash.

This clearly means that we will stay here tonight.

Liang Qian's heart choked and she bit her lip: "I, I am not feeling well today, I am afraid I can't, I can't——"

She turned her head away and didn't say anything else.

Gao Hao laughed and turned to look at her: "Is the Queen Mother going to regret it again?"

Liang Qian frowned and denied: "No, it's not regret, it's——"

"His Majesty!"

Someone fell to his knees with a thud.

"The Queen Mother had her period and felt severe pain in her body this afternoon, so she specially invited Doctor Lu to come."

Gu Ya lowered his head and his voice was trembling.

Seeing this, Jin Zhi also knelt down.

Gao Hao paused, glanced at the faces of the two kneeling people, and then looked at the person on the bed.

"Since you are here, why not stay here? I am tired today and don't want to bother any more."

After receiving the emperor's order, the palace maids who had stopped helped him undress.

Liang Qian wanted to speak, but Gao Hao said, "That's just right. I still have something to say to the Queen Mother."

There is no room for rejection.

After a while, all the palace servants left, leaving only the two of them.

Gao Hao sat on the edge of the couch wearing only a soft middle shirt, and smiled as he picked up a strand of her hair and played with it.

"Who else is going to cause trouble tonight?"

Liang Qian didn't care whether it would hurt her scalp or not. She sat up suddenly and slapped his hand away.

"If the Emperor has anything to say, please speak quickly."

She frowned, spoke in a bad tone and was very impatient.

It was very different from the docile appearance he had shown in front of everyone just now.

Gao Hao was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, very contemptuously.

"As soon as Prince Guangning left, the Queen Mother turned against her?"

"Turning against someone? I wonder who is the one who turned against someone, me or the emperor?"

She sneered: "There are no outsiders here, is there any need for the emperor to pretend? It is better to say everything clearly!"

After saying this, he didn't even look at him, but just shouted towards the outside.

"Gu Ya, where is the tea I ordered?"

Only then did he notice that the hair on her neck was damp. She had a frown on her face, as if she was holding back something.

Gao Hao stretched out his hand and reached for her neck, but she quickly moved back and glared at him angrily.

"Your Majesty, why don't you just give me a piece of white silk? Otherwise, not only will I fail to strangle you to death, but I will also cause you to suffer and me to suffer!"

Gao Hao narrowed his eyes and looked at her neck, vaguely seeing a faint red mark.

That night, he did use a little more force.

Gu Ya came in from the outside with her head down, and walked forward carefully holding the teapot.

Seeing Liang Qian waiting, he brewed a cup and presented it to her.

Liang Qian grabbed it and drank it in small sips.

Gao Hao sat quietly by the side and watched, only hearing her slight swallowing sound.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too strange, he looked at the person who was drinking water by himself and asked: "The Queen Mother is only concerned about drinking by herself?"

Liang Qian swallowed a mouthful of tea and tilted her head to look at him: "Why does the emperor also need to drink the ginger and jujube tea that this woman drinks?"

After saying that, ignore him.

Gao Hao's face sank.

Suddenly, Gu Ya knelt down and said, "The Queen Mother drank it. The imperial physician ordered me to prepare it in advance. Your Majesty drank the Junshan Yinzhen. Sister Jinzhi brought it in right away. It was just taken the day before yesterday. The Queen Mother specifically instructed me to keep it for Your Majesty."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jinzhi walked in holding a purple clay teapot.

After the tea was brewed, Gao Hao's expression had eased a lot and he just waved his hand.

"Okay, you go down."

Gu Ya and Jin Zhi bowed together, then respectfully retreated to the outer room to wait, not daring to go far.

The hall became quiet again.

Gao Hao glanced at the person beside him: "Why are you so angry?"

Liang Qian put down the teacup, lowered her head and said nothing.

Gao Hao continued, "That day, I didn't really want to break up with you. It was because you kept talking to me in a sarcastic way that I got angry. Didn't I apologize to you afterwards? Today, you want to personally send him out of the palace, didn't I agree?"

He stroked her neck with his fingers: "Can't we get along peacefully like before? Must we get angry every time we disagree? I didn't realize you had such a strange temper before, but Lu——"

He stopped talking and said, "Which of the women in this palace doesn't try their best to please me? You are the only one who dares to let me coax you with kind words."

Liang Qian narrowed her eyes, looked at the ground, and still said nothing.

Seeing that the person remained silent, Gao Hao simply reached out and hugged the person in front of him.

"I know you're not used to it yet, but it will be fine after a while."

Liang Qian brushed his hand away: "Don't touch me."

The harsh tone reveals disgust that is difficult to conceal.

She paused, then added, "My stomach aches."

Gao Hao glanced at her lower abdomen, but saw that she had her hands covering it.

"Does it hurt that much?"

Liang Qian frowned and said unhappily: "Would you like to try?"

"You——" Gao Hao frowned, reached out to take her hand away, replaced hers, and gently rubbed it, saying: "Of course I can't try, but I haven't seen any of them be as delicate as you."

Liang Qian tried to break free, but he held her tightly like a chain.

"Don't worry, I won't touch you tonight. To be more precise, I won't touch you until your period is over."

"Hmph, should I thank you then?"

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Liang Qian, to be honest, I have never coaxed a woman for as long as I have coaxed you. The strange thing is, I think I may coax her again in the future."

Liang Qian turned her head and met his eyes: "If you are willing to lower yourself, who wouldn't benefit?"

"What about you?" Gao Hao looked at her quietly, "Of all the princes and grandchildren, why did you choose me?"

Liang Qian pursed her lips and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that you are indeed the most outstanding among the many princes. Even without me, you would still have sat in this position with your own ability. My help only accelerated the process and saved you unnecessary time."

Gao Hao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

"I thought you liked me a little."
