An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

After the meal was over, the maid removed the leftovers from the table and roasted them coldly.Wei Lian wiped her lips with a white brocade handkerchief, her movements were gentle and elegant.

In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, the sky is dark outside and the moon is hazy.

It was chilly.

When Wei Lian came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he was almost forced back by the temperature at night. Ji Yue took his cold hand in time and passed on the warmth of his palm.

In front of the servants in the palace, Ji Yue greeted him with coldness and warmth: "If you are cold, grab Gu's hand."

Wei Lian pursed his lips and smiled, lowering his head as if in embarrassment.

The atmosphere between the two was harmonious.

After nightfall, Ji Yue will review the memorial in the imperial study.If there is no major matter in the court, it can be approved for less than half an hour; when government affairs are busy, it is also possible to read at night until dawn.

In the past, there was a servant studying ink at the side, but now Wei Lian, the newly appointed "male favourite", is the red sleeve.

The Imperial Study Room is not far from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, bypassing a few sections of nine-curved corridors, and pushing open the door, there is a gust of warm wind inside.

Ji Yue kept Wei Lian by his side, and four servants from the palace.

In the early years, Ji Yue worked too hard to govern, but now the six countries respect Qin, the world is peaceful and prosperous, and there are no natural disasters, so that the courtiers are in a hurry.

For example, what is piled up on Ji Yue's book case at this moment is not an overview of the people's livelihood in various places, nor the country's military deployment, but a stack of pictures of beauties.

You don't need to think about it to know that the gang of ministers who wanted him to enter the harem did it.

Ji Yue opened a pair, glanced casually, and threw the stack of scrolls to Wei Lian: "Pick out the ones that are prettier than you and present them to Gu."

Not everyone can fall into his eyes.For an ordinary person, Ji Yue would find it superfluous to take a look.

Wei Lian said: "No." Then he took the scrolls and looked at them carefully one by one.

After a stick of incense, Wei Lian put all the scrolls back, and said in a humble and polite tone, "I can't pick one."

Ji Yue pondered: "This means, you are the prettiest?"

Wei Lian paused, and said more modestly: "Yes."

Ji Yue's eyes moved slightly, and the thin creases at the corners of his eyes were raised, revealing a slight smile.

How could this person say all the arrogant and presumptuous words with the attitude of a humble gentleman.

He really... likes it tightly.

Ji Yue swept all those scrolls to the ground, leaving a space on the table.The scroll fell to the ground with a loud crash, and the four palace servants in the room thought that King Qin was angry, so they immediately knelt down in fright.

Only Wei Lian looked indifferent.

Ji Yue pulled Wei Lian's wrist, hugged him to the empty table in front of him, and said in a very adoring tone, "Then I don't want them anymore, I just want you?"

Wei Lian: Tsk, what a big pot.

The four palace people kneeling in the room were not deaf.Wei Lian could already foresee that Qin Chen would point his nose at him and scold him for harming the country and the people.

Wei Lian lowered his eyes and smiled: "Okay."

Ji Yue's slender fingers lifted his chin, and leaned over, as if to kiss.

The four kneeling palace servants were trembling and buried their heads even deeper, not daring to glance up at all.

His Majesty really dotes on the guard...they thought in unison.

Only Wei Lian heard Ji Yue stop at his lips, and gave a very low praise: "The acting is good."

Wei Lian gasped, pretending to be breathing unsteadily after being kissed, and begged: "Your Majesty... I, I can't breathe."

As for Wei Lian, his appearance is the best in the world, and his acting is the best in the Seven Kingdoms.

He didn't mind showing that he could act in front of King Qin.Layer after layer of masks, it's not real after all.

Wei Lian was like this, even if he pretended to be respectful and humble, he couldn't hide the arrogance in his bones.It's not that he can't restrain himself, it's just that he doesn't want to.

Appropriate disguising is conducive to living safely, and pretending to be too aggrieved is the one who suffers.

Wei Lian didn't want to suffer.

Ji Yue chuckled twice, and the laughter was extremely nice.

He whispered: "Wei Lang, I just want to take off your face. Let's see what you look like inside."

Wei Lian said calmly, "It's just a soft bone that wants to live."

Ji Yue raised his eyebrows, and ordered the four palace servants who were kneeling on the ground: "Stay back."

The palace people quickly agreed.

The moment he retreated to close the door, His Majesty could be seen in the crack of the door eagerly taking off the clothes of the guard, and pressing him on the desk.

Does Your Majesty actually plan to guard the King in the imperial study?

The maid who finally closed the door blushed and closed the door tightly.

As soon as the door was closed, Ji Yue moved away from Wei Lian in an instant.

Wei Lian unhurriedly put on his coat again, and even tidied up the messy pens, inks, papers and inkstones on the table one by one.

Ji Yue looked at him leisurely.

When Wei Lian started to tidy up the scrolls on the ground, Ji Yue said: "I just look at Wei Lang, but he is quite tough."

Wei Lian stopped picking up the painting.

"They are all afraid of loneliness." Ji Yue said slowly, "But you are not afraid."

No matter how much he pretended, he didn't feel any real fear from the young man.

Youth is different from those people.

Wei Lian raised his head and looked at him silently.

The young man half-kneeled on the ground and raised his head slightly.The eyes under the light of the candles were as quiet as a deep pool, and as clear and moving as a clear spring.

After a long time, he said: "Your Majesty, the king is formidable, but the husband does not."

Ji Yue knew that he was talking nonsense with his eyes open.

But his mood somehow became better because of this nonsense.

Young Master Lian, Wei Lian.

Really interesting character.

There are not many government affairs to be dealt with today. After coming out of the imperial study, it is time to take a shower and go to bed.

Tangquan Palace has more than one pool, Wei Lian doesn't like to bathe with others, and obviously Ji Yue doesn't either.

They are all extremely defensive people, how can they be willing to be honest with each other.

A cautious person like King Qin never let others wait on him while taking a bath, so there are only Ji Yue and Wei Lian in Tangquan Palace.

Wei Lian said with a wink, "I go to the other side."

There are many pools in Tangquan Palace, Wei Lian deliberately went around to the farthest one.Across several screens, no matter what happened, King Qin's movement could not be heard.

King Qin doesn't like to get too close to people, so why not him.

Wei Lian couldn't let King Qin wait for him, so he was very fast.When he came back, Ji Yue had already finished bathing.He had just come out of the bath and put on his jacket, his black hair was scattered, and water dripped from his face and slid into his neckline. He looked lazy, bright and coquettish.

Seeing this, Wei Lian felt that the King of Qin himself could afford the words "male sex harms the country".

Ji Yue raised his head: "Come here."

Wei Lian walked over obediently.

"Wait a little longer."

Wei Lian nodded, without asking what he was waiting for.

He knew in his heart that it would take some time to do that in the pool.

Wei Lian counted the time with his head down, and when the time was almost up, Ji Yue suddenly hugged him and whispered in his ear: "Do you know how to act later?"

Wei Lian's ears were reddened by the hot steam from the soup pool, he hooked King Qin's neck, buried him in his arms and whispered, "I understand."

As soon as the gate of Tangquan Palace opened, the palace guards outside saw such a scene.

Their king hugged the frail young man and looked ahead with a calm expression.

The young man buried his face in the king's arms, he couldn't see his face clearly, but there was a faint flush from his neck to the roots of his ears.

It is clear that nothing is revealed, but the scene is charming and beautiful, which arouses everyone's reverie.

Your Majesty just stayed inside with the guard for so long...

Look at this, the mandarin duck bathed in the bath is probably so fragrant that the guard can't even walk, so His Majesty needs to carry it out in person.

One of the maids was even more blushing.

Her name is Zhuyu, and she is the one who was the last to close the door in the imperial study.

His Majesty had already been fortunate enough to guard the guard in the imperial study, and now he was lucky again in the pond...

It's so exciting, she must share this news with the little sisters in the palace!
