"Has he not co?" An Ning waited until midnight.
Anqi has returned to Qixi Palace to rest.
An Youyou fell asleep noisily.
The entire hall only had An Ning and the personal palace maid serving her.
She waited all night, but Xiao Jinxing did not co.
She really shouldn’t have just turned around and left.
What’s wrong with being naked?!
It’s not like she hasn’t seen it before.
She should have watched Xiao Jinxing put on clothes and then talked with him.
"Reporting to the Empress, I haven’t seen the Emperor. I also sent soone to inquire just now, and they said the Emperor has already retired for the night." The palace maid at the door hurriedly ca in, knelt down, and reported.
An Ning laughed.
Great.
She clenched her fist tightly, really wanting to punch Xiao Jinxing to death.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Bathed and dressed."
"Yes, Empress." The palace maid was very frightened.
It was entirely visible that the Empress’s patience had reached its limit.
...
Yunxia Palace.
Bai Mowan was assisted by palace maids to bed, and she casually asked, "Did the Emperor go to Xiaoxiang Palace?"
"Report to Empress, today the little mistress of Xiaoxiang Palace barged into Qiankun Hall without permission. The Emperor did not see her, and it is said that she is now waiting for the Emperor at Xiaoxiang Palace. We just heard that the Emperor has already retired for the night." The palace maid hurriedly reported.
The tone was full of extre sarcasm towards An Ning.
Bai Mowan sneered coldly.
Obviously in a good mood.
"Just a re commoner woman, she really thinks she can seduce the Emperor. The Emperor is just montarily interested and doesn’t pay attention to her at all."
"The Empress’s words are very true. Soone like the Emperor, a true dragon among n, how could he easily fancy an unclean woman." The palace maid flattered, "The Emperor naturally likes soone as pure and flawless as the Empress..."
"Slap!" Bai Mowan slapped the palace maid hard on the face.
The palace maid was bewildered.
She hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Empress, it’s the servant’s fault. The servant shouldn’t have spoken poorly of the mistress. It’s the servant’s fault, please punish the servant."
Thinking she had insulted the Empress of Xiaoxiang Palace.
Before the Empress of Xiaoxiang Palace ca to the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Concubine was also fair and just in the harem, hosting justice without targeting anyone.
Her current loss of asure must have angered the Imperial Concubine.
"Get out of my palace!" Bai Mowan’s face looked extrely ugly.
The palace maid hurriedly withdrew, not daring to delay for a mont.
Bai Mowan looked harshly at herself in the mirror.
At the thought of the humiliation she suffered before, at the thought of whether Xiao Jinxing truly didn’t favor her because of her impure body, she was burning with unspeakable anger.
She naturally couldn’t bear to hear such words from a servant.
"Empress." Outside the screen, another palace maid knelt on the ground, clearly having sothing to report.
"What is it?" Bai Mowan said coldly.
"Received latest intelligence, the Emperor has now suddenly gone to Xiaoxiang Palace." The palace maid said tremblingly.
The next mont.
"Bang..."
Only heard from inside the screen, bottles shattered all over the ground.
Clearly Bai Mowan was venting uncontrollably.
Because of anger, she didn’t even notice that her hand was cut by the shards.
Her body was trembling with anger.
For five years, Xiao Jinxing hadn’t stepped foot in the harem, yet today he broke his vow for that slut An Ning!
How could she bear this anger?
After today, how could she, the esteed Imperial Concubine, stand in the harem!
...
Xiaoxiang Palace.
An Ning lay in the bath, bathing.
The personal palace maid Yue Ying attended to her, gently scrubbing her back.
Her body felt very comfortable, but she was about to be mad with rage.
Even at this mont, she seed unable to calm herself.
She worked hard to take a deep breath.
Thinking that even if swords rained down from the sky tomorrow, she must confront Xiao Jinxing.
She instructed, "Yue Ying, that’s enough, get dressed."
Behind.
No one responded to her.
An Ning felt a bit displeased.
She turned her head.
As soon as she turned her head, her expression visibly changed.
Because she saw Xiao Jinxing, who had never shown up.
And at this mont, he appeared so naturally at the edge of her bath.
The large bath, even with petals scattered on top, still made her body partly visible.
And at this mont, she was still scrubbing her back.
One can imagine how exposed her back must be.
"Eunuch Ping said you are waiting for at Xiaoxiang Palace." Xiao Jinxing’s tone was indifferent, speaking calmly.
Seemingly unaware of any awkwardness in eting her under such circumstances.
"Where’s Yue Ying?" An Ning was thinking deeply about how she was so focused earlier that she didn’t notice Yue Ying had left the edge of the bath.
"I thought the Empress wanted to et alone, so I sent her away." Xiao Jinxing said.
His gaze just lingered on her fair skin.
He looked carefully, bit by bit.
An Ning took a deep breath.
Repeatedly telling herself, she is not in a dominant position here, not even good in a fight.
The point is, she doesn’t habitually fight people while naked.
"You should call Yue Ying in first." An Ning said frankly.
"Does the Empress still need her back scrubbed?" Xiao Jinxing squatted down, his fingers slightly moving.
"Xiao Jinxing!" An Ning called his na, "Don’t touch !"
"Are you willing to call by na now?" Xiao Jinxing raised an eyebrow.
So this damned Emperor was really grudging.
Resenting her for deceiving him back in Xuzhou.
"You should go out first, I need to get dressed." An Ning tried hard to endure.
"I’ll help you."
The mont the words fell, An Ning saw Xiao Jinxing rise and pick up the sleepwear Yue Ying had laid aside for her.
Obviously intentionally provoking.
An Ning really didn’t hold any hope for Xiao Jinxing.
She understood too well Xiao Jinxing’s personality; the matters of Xuzhou, he would surely repay doubly.
He just wants to embarrass her, doesn’t he?!
Her face, An Ning maintained was never so thin.
"Since the Emperor is so thoughtful, I would gracefully accept, troubling the Emperor then." An Ning smiled.
Suddenly pulling out a captivating smile.
Acting, who cannot do it?
She stood up.
Slowly standing up from the petal-filled bath.
Xiao Jinxing’s pupils paused slightly.
His Adam’s apple involuntarily moving.
The hand once shielded by An Ning’s clothes had ford into a fist, as An Ning stepped out of the bath, the force in the palm grew larger.
An Ning walked right in front of Xiao Jinxing like this.
Her skin, like a lotus erging from water, red and white, displayed clearly before Xiao Jinxing’s eyes.
"Wasn’t the Emperor going to help get dressed?" An Ning raised an eyebrow, provocatively.
Xiao Jinxing seed to let out a silent sigh.
He had rely intended to tease her.
A slight revenge for her turning around and fleeing upon seeing him earlier today.
And he, having truly seen her, couldn’t hold back anymore, and ca to her sleeping quarters late at night.
Originally planned to let her beco more familiar with the palace, deepen bonds with important people before he ca to see her.
He was well aware.
Upon seeing him, her first sentence would be that she wants to leave with An Youyou.
He was even avoiding such an event from happening.
So he just kept enduring.
Until now, when he couldn’t endure anymore.
The desire for her finally swallowed all his sanity.
