The night was bathed in moonlight, as ethereal as water.
The cool breeze was gentle on this evening, rustling the leaves into a soft whispering sound.
At this mont, in a palace of the Great Sum Imperial Palace, palace maids were busy dressing a lady as the Emperor would visit tonight, so they needed to make the attendee look even more beautiful in a short ti.
After an indefinite period, a maid's voice ca from outside, "His Majesty has arrived!"
Upon hearing this, the movents of the maids inside the room noticeably quickened.
It wasn't long before the doors of the palace room opened, and Lu Chen, clad in a black gold dragon robe, entered the room.
At that mont, Xuanyuan Yunqi, who was dressed in a red garnt, wearing a red string on her head and a forehead ornant, imdiately stood up from in front of the dressing mirror.
She quickly approached Lu Chen, and along with all the palace maids, bowed to him, "We greet Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen took a few steps towards her, then, holding on to Xuanyuan Yunqi's fragrant shoulders, he personally helped her up, "Everyone, rise!"
Xuanyuan Yunqi then slowly stood up, and after she did, Lu Chen scrutinized her carefully.
The red dress worn by Xuanyuan Yunqi suited her exceptionally well, and a golden red belt around her waist accentuated her shapely figure.
Most importantly were Xuanyuan Yunqi's locks of hair, still styled in a single ponytail. Tied back, they revealed her pale neck, and she still carried a gallant and noble air, her face radiating a valiant charm.
She and Bai Qingqing looked remarkably similar, yet Bai Qingqing was more of a cold beauty, whereas Xuanyuan Yunqi's face was tinged with a shy blush, lacking Bai Qingqing's icy deanor.
She gave off a very lively, sunny, and vibrant vibe.
Looking into Lu Chen's eyes, Xuanyuan Yunqi said, "Your Majesty, tonight your servant shall attend to you."
Hearing this, Lu Chen teasingly replied, "Attend to ? I ca tonight to hear your thoughts on who should be the Imperial Guard Commander."
"You haven't decided yet, have you?"
"If you haven't decided, inviting here tonight would be a cri of deceiving the Emperor, you know." Find more chapters on My Virtual Library Empire
This statent imdiately increased the pressure Xuanyuan Yunqi felt, as she had indeed thought of soone for the role of Imperial Guard Commander, but her intention tonight was not to discuss this with Lu Chen.
Even if she told the Emperor her choice, without his approval, she couldn't follow the army south, let alone beco the Main Commander.
Thus, what she needed to do now was to attend to the Emperor well, hoping that a happy Emperor might bring her opportunity.
"Your Majesty, your servant…"
Before Xuanyuan Yunqi could finish, Lu Chen chuckled, raised his hand, and drew her slim waist into his embrace, then slowly walked towards the couch with her in his arms.
While walking, he whispered in Xuanyuan Yunqi's ear, "Since it was you who invited , let's not talk about that tonight. Let's discuss important matters instead."
Embraced in such a manner by Lu Chen, Xuanyuan Yunqi imdiately felt her body heat up, as if set afla.
Lu Chen hadn't walked many steps before he reached the couch, then gently pushed Xuanyuan Yunqi down onto it. He propped his hands on either side of her hair, looking down at her brave and beautiful face.
Being stared at directly by Lu Chen, Xuanyuan Yunqi felt her consciousness begin to blur. Lu Chen seed to exude a special kind of imposing aura that made Xuanyuan Yunqi's heart thump wildly.
At that mont, a peculiar scent entered Xuanyuan Yunqi's nose, stirring her further.
Suddenly thinking of sothing, Xuanyuan Yunqi then said, "Your Majesty, let your servant attend to you."
This ti, it was her initiative, so naturally she should attend to the Emperor. How could they allow the Emperor to take the initiative?
She had also studied the matters between n and won and knew what to do; attending to Lu Chen was not too much of a problem.
Upon hearing Xuanyuan Yunqi's words, Lu Chen gave a slight smile, then said, "Then, all right."
"I'll leave it to you then."
As he spoke, Lu Chen took off his shoes and then lay down on Xuanyuan Yunqi's soft couch.
At that mont, Xuanyuan Yunqi rose from the soft couch and took the initiative to lower the curtains of the couch.
Right after that, Xuanyuan Yunqi began to loosen Lu Chen's clothing. Just as Xuanyuan Yunqi raised her hand, Lu Chen quickly grabbed her wrist, then took a mont to look at Xuanyuan Yunqi's hand.
Xuanyuan Yunqi's hands were rather rough, for she was soone who often wielded a sword; her hands had many calluses. Although Xuanyuan Yunqi had soaked her hands in hot water for a long ti and had also applied so dicine to attend to Lu Chen, these were ancient calluses that were not so easily removed.
Seeing that Lu Chen was staring at the calluses on her hands, Xuanyuan Yunqi seed to understand sothing and imdiately apologized, saying, "Your Majesty, it is my fault, my hands are too coarse, I can't attend to you well…"
Before Xuanyuan Yunqi could finish, Lu Chen interrupted, saying, "It's not a big issue, no need to apologize."
Having said that, Lu Chen then used Rejuvenating Skill to treat Xuanyuan Yunqi's hands, and soon her hands beca extrely smooth and tender, as if all the calluses had vanished.
While the calluses had disappeared, Xuanyuan Yunqi's hands were still the sa as before; holding a sword wouldn't be uncomfortable. Only the skin on her hands had beco softer, more elastic, and resilient.
Seeing her hands transford, Xuanyuan Yunqi imdiately thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen gave a slight smile, then lay back down on the bed and said, "Alright, Yunqi, continue with whatever you were doing."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yunqi's face instantly turned crimson, and she continued loosening Lu Chen's clothing.
Lu Chen hardly moved at all, and under these circumstances, it took Xuanyuan Yunqi a great deal of ti to loosen his clothing.
After what felt like an eternity, the two of them were finally honest with each other, and Xuanyuan Yunqi began to use so of the knowledge she had learned to attend to Lu Chen.
Watching Xuanyuan Yunqi, who was diligently attending to him, Lu Chen thought to himself, truly, a girl who often rides horses has very strong legs, almost like Xiao Wenyao.
Originally, it was Xuanyuan Yunqi attending to Lu Chen, but before long, Xuanyuan Yunqi couldn't handle it anymore; she lay down entirely, resting in Lu Chen's arms. Realizing her lapse, she apologized, albeit weakly, "Your Majesty, it is my fault, I couldn't please you thoroughly."
Lu Chen raised his hand and gently stroked Xuanyuan Yunqi's back, while softly saying, "You've already done very well."
At that, Lu Chen directly asked, "Do you truly wish to lead troops in battle?"
Facing this question, Xuanyuan Yunqi answered without hesitation, "Yes!"
Lu Chen said, "Your brother must have told you, I do not wish to see you hurt."
Xuanyuan Yunqi fell silent; she knew that Lu Chen cared deeply about her, but her childhood dream had always been to gallop across the battlefields, to beco a Great General.
Seeing Xuanyuan Yunqi's silence, Lu Chen continued, "I've told you before, I would give you this opportunity. Since you can hardly wait, I will give you a chance."
"This ti, as we march south, I'll give you one hundred thousand soldiers."
Hearing these words, Xuanyuan Yunqi instantly beca excited, and her muscles tensed up instantly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Feeling Xuanyuan Yunqi's bodily reaction, Lu Chen gave a slight smile, then whispered in her ear, "My Xuanyuan Great General, your battle is over, but mine has not yet begun."
Hearing these words, Xuanyuan Yunqi's heart tightened, then she said, "Your servant is at Your Majesty's disposal."
