When Xiao Jiaojiao got married, the crippled king stood up and pampered her.

Di Taiyin's eyes, which had always been cold and calm, sank slightly.

Because he has been chaste since childhood, he has never had any physical contact with any woman.

At this moment, the woman's body pressed against him. She was burning hot with a high fever, yet she had the softness and warmth that only women have.

His body and back were stiff, and he did not make any movement for a while.

Although Chen Yuanzhen was delirious due to the fever and felt very cold, she still had some sanity left.

Emperor Taiyin... Your Majesty...did he pull her into his bed...

At that moment, their bodies were touching, and even she, who was seriously ill, could feel the faint and noble aura of the man.

He was only wearing a golden robe and you could almost feel the warmth beneath his clothes.

Chen Yuanzhen's face became even hotter, "Your Majesty... your servant... cough cough... your servant is fine..."

She didn't dare to bother him, for fear of causing him to misunderstand her, and she tried to retreat despite her confused consciousness.

He just subconsciously raised his hand, trying to find a fulcrum to support her out of his blanket, but what a coincidence...

Her weak hand pressed on Di Taiyin's chest...

When you have a fever, your palms are still cold.

The cold touch suddenly penetrated the clothes and reached Di Taiyin's skin.

Di Taiyin's face became more and more depressed, and his ears turned slightly red as he was an inexperienced person.

"Stop moving."

His noble voice reminded her.

Considering that she has had someone she liked before, it is normal for her to resist like this.

Di Taiyin comforted him: "I was rude, but sleeping with the quilt together can alleviate the symptoms. That's all."

Chen Yuanzhen heard his nice voice and knew that he had misunderstood her again, but she was still confused and couldn't explain it...

If she refuses again and the misunderstanding deepens...

For a moment, Chen Yuanzhen dared not move and just lay quietly in the emperor's arms.

Di Taiyin covered her back with bedding and closed his eyes to rest.

It turned out that today, Chu Jiangling accidentally wore a set of clothes that were similar to those worn by Di Changyuan before, and they wore the same clothes.

The moment he walked towards him from a distance, he suddenly thought of Di Changyuan who had been dead for a long time.

The closest sibling who had been bullied since childhood and whom he was unable to save despite the way he treated him.

He began to think deeply again. If he had been more patient with Di Changyuan since he was a child, would the outcome have been changed?

On second thought, Di Changyuan killed his biological mother, so why would he have such regrets? Why would he miss an enemy who killed his mother?

The two emotions kept tormenting him, making him restless all day long.

But at this moment...

The woman's hot body nestled in his arms, and his thoughts were drawn away. For a moment, he only thought about gentlemanly etiquette and avoiding touching any place that should not be touched.

That night, my tense and heavy nerves finally relaxed and I felt sleepy.

Chen Yuanzhen was still somewhat rational at first, but as the night grew deeper, she became more and more sleepy. After falling asleep, she just felt very cold.

She instinctively moved towards the man's arms with body temperature and just snuggled in his arms.

Originally, there was still a piece of paper between them, but she got closer and closer...

The sleeping Di Taiyin frowned slightly, but he didn't resist. Thinking of her condition, he let her stick close to him.

The woman continued to shiver in his arms, and the shivering lasted for a long time.

Di Taiyin's Adam's apple rolled instinctively, forcing himself to fall into a deep sleep.

The moon outside the window sets and the sun rises.

No bathing today.

When Chen Yuanzhen woke up and opened his eyes, what came into view was the man's white chest, Adam's apple, and a familiar breath in his nose...

She slowly raised her eyes and looked upwards, and saw the dignified and extraordinary face of Di Taiyin.

He was still asleep, and had shed his disguised tense demeanor, but now had some of the temperament of the handsome and elegant young man in his memory.

Chen Yuanzhen's heart suddenly started pounding. She...she actually...slept with him in her arms all night last night...

"It was I who overstepped my bounds..."

She immediately got up from the bed and knelt beside it.

When Di Taiyin opened his sleepy eyes, it was already dawn.

He sat up and looked at her. Seeing that the woman was terrified, he comforted her:

"Don't be nervous. I did that last night because I saw that your condition was complicated. It has nothing to do with you."

Chen Yuanzhen vaguely remembered something, lowered his head, his face flushed and a little...

It was Di Taiyin who took the initiative to hug her.

But... it is said that men are more... Di Taiyin really just hugged her for one night and did nothing...

He obviously had no feelings for her.

He was always like this, either being nice to her out of courtesy, sympathy or tenderness, and it was always and always just like this.

Chen Yuanzhen felt lost in his heart, but on the surface he stood up and said:

"I will help you change your clothes."

"No need."

Di Taiyin keenly noticed the disappointment in her eyes.

She has someone she likes, but even if that person is married, she still hasn't let go and wants to remain a virgin.

Di Taiyin stood up and said, "I was forced to do that last night because of my illness. You don't have to take it to heart. Take care of yourself."

After patiently instructing, he walked to the outer hall and left under the service of Xin Huan.

Chen Yuanzhen looked at his back and clenched his palms.

He told her clearly that it was just because of the disease and she shouldn't think too much about it...

Yes, she couldn't think too much about anything.

If he had any feelings for her, would he have held her all night without thinking about anything else?

Chen Yuanzhen tried his best to suppress the feeling of loss and discomfort, and went back to the bamboo forest to continue working on the unfinished yard.

In the past few days, Di Taiyin thought that his actions were not gentlemanly without her permission, so he had people send a lot of compensation items to Fengchao Palace.

Chen Yuanzhen packed all the items he sent, even if they were just rewards for official business, into a large box and kept it in a secret place.

A lot of love is unknown.

A lot of love is also hidden in the years and in the hands that are becoming increasingly rough.

Half a month later.

It was snowing heavily, and the magnificent palace was covered with snow, clad in silver.

Emperor Taiyin continued to handle state affairs in the imperial study as usual.

He raised his eyes and looked at the falling snow outside the window. In the winter of the past two years, he had already gone outside the palace to ride a horse to watch the birds flying over the mountains, and then sat in the deserted cold pond and fished for a whole day.

Or you can sit in a mossy cottage, listen to the snow by the window, cook wine and drink tea.

Now, he could only look, then look away and continue to deal with government affairs.

Just when he was thinking about fishing and sitting idle, he remembered a question that Di Changyuan had once asked him:

"Brother Jiu...haha, you keep saying that you care about me, but where were you when I was bullied?"

At that time, he did often invite Di Changyuan to go out of the palace with him, but Di Changyuan was devoted to state affairs, so he didn't force him.

He never thought that every time he left the palace, someone would come to humiliate Di Changyuan...

When Chen Yuanzhen arrived, he saw a man in a golden dragon robe sitting in front of a desk in a daze.

Gold, the most noble color, still cannot conceal his jade-like, deep, cold and profound temperament.

She walked over and carefully made him a pot of tea.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Could you please move and go somewhere with me?"

It's done there, and it's time.
