It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

"Your Majesty" Su Wanti lifted the bed curtain and ran out barefoot, as frightened as a little white rabbit.

Her eyes were wet and full of nervousness, and she had casually put on a thin nightgown.

There was no time to tie it, so it hung loosely on the body, unable to cover the exquisite curves and purple marks.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

The moment she saw Emperor Xiao Ping, the panic and loss in her eyes disappeared, her expression relaxed, and joy was revealed in her voice.

Emperor Xiao Ping's heart softened, and then his heart was filled with a sense of satisfaction.

Just now, after he got up, he saw Su Wanti was still asleep. Fearing to disturb her, he only asked the palace maid to light a lamp on the desk, which was enough for him to read.

At this moment, the beauty that moved him looked even more charming and affectionate under the dim light.

His eyes darkened and he waved to Su Wanti, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, aren't you cold? Come here quickly."

Su Wanti walked lightly to the side of Emperor Xiao Ping, her eyes filled with uncontrollable joy.

Emperor Xiao Ping placed his hands on her slender waist, pulled her closer, then lifted her up by her waist and let the soft woman sit astride his thighs.

He liked this posture because it allowed him to see her clearly and not miss any subtle expressions.

The woman obediently let him do what he wanted, her eyes full of admiration and trust, as well as a hint of caution.

She whispered, "When I woke up and didn't see Your Majesty, I thought He had left. I was so worried—"

"What are you worried about?" Emperor Xiao Ping's eyes were deep, and his palms were rubbing and twisting restlessly.

The woman in his palm was trembling all over and breathing heavily, but she did not avoid it like before.

She said in a trembling voice: "I am afraid that Your Majesty will not come again after he leaves. I am afraid that Your Majesty will forget me."

She lowered her eyes slightly, the corners of her eyes were red, and the tip of her nose was also red, as if she was holding back tears.

She took a deep breath, as if to give herself courage, and then hooked her slender white arms around the man's neck.

Her eyes were filled with affection, as if they were soaked with starlight, and she was begging, "Your Majesty, you are the only one I can rely on. Please don't ignore me anymore."

The pink nightgown could not cover her porcelain-white skin. She clung to the man like a white dodder, delicate and beautiful, making people feel love and pity for her.

Emperor Xiao Ping hugged the person tightly, with a trace of heartache between his brows, as well as the pleasure of achieving his goal.

He wanted her body, but he wanted her heart even more.

Emperor Xiao Ping had been the emperor for more than ten years. The art of ruling had been ingrained in him, and it was like an instinct for him to manipulate people's hearts.

When he realized that he also had plans for Su Wanti, he was shocked, but he only hesitated for a moment before letting his thoughts run wild.

He was twice her age, and he felt uneasy facing her.

He was afraid that she was succumbing to her status and being forced by his power.

He was afraid that when she saw the young talent, she would feel resentful and would think how nice it would be if the person beside her was also so young...

He wanted her to stay by his side willingly, so he allowed himself to use means to seduce her heart, scare her, and make her dependent on him...

Therefore, he deliberately ignored Su Wanti for ten days, letting her experience the warmth and coldness of the harem, and then stepped forward to save her from danger when she was bullied and helpless.

Make her realize that only if she depends on him wholeheartedly can she live a peaceful and smooth life in the harem.

Now, holding the delicate and soft girl in my arms, feeling her warmth and tenderness clinging to me,

He got what he wanted.

The heartache in the man's eyes disappeared, replaced by a strong desire for exclusivity and the pride of being in control of everything.

He pinched the woman's small chin and forced her to look directly into his eyes.

The dark tide in the eyes envelopes people, airtight.

His voice was deep and resounding, "Remember, I will protect you for the rest of your life."

Su Wanti's eyes were filled with tears, as if she completely believed the man's promise.

She nodded, then leaned on the man's shoulder, sobbing softly, her tears rolling down and wetting the man's clothes.

Su Wanti rested her head on Emperor Xiao Ping's shoulder, her eyes flashing with cunning.

The ten days of neglect made her understand Emperor Xiao Ping's thoughts.

It's just that you want me to be completely dependent on you.

Well,

You want me to be a dodder that wraps around you, so I will fulfill your wish.

----

After the incident with Lady Qiao, some changes took place in the harem.

This was the first time the emperor interfered in the affairs of the harem. He asked the empress to punish the harem's unhealthy tendencies of jealousy and bullying of newcomers.

He also sent Eunuch De to investigate Concubine Qiao and those close to her, including concubines. If any problems were found, the people would be expelled from the palace.

After all this trouble, many concubines and servants in the palace were replaced.

Even some of the concubines' confidants brought into the palace were expelled from the palace.

The harem was temporarily quiet.

Now, Emperor Xiao Ping comes to the harem every day, but he only goes to Su Wanti's Yaoguang Palace.

However, Su Wanti's exclusive favor did not improve the Su family's plight.

The case of Earl Su has not been concluded yet, and he is still trapped in another place under investigation. Su Shaoxuan submitted a memorial to the emperor, requesting to return to Beijing after two months, but was also rejected by the emperor.

Things in the Su family became complicated.

Fortunately, Su Wanti was in the harem, favored by the emperor, and no one dared to touch her.

Mrs. Su stayed in the Earl's mansion and rarely went out, and did not encounter any unpleasantness.

Even so, some concubines in the harem still felt jealous when they saw Su Wanti was the favorite.

They saw the emperor entering and leaving Yaoguang Palace every day, and their teeth were almost broken, but they dared not embarrass Su Wanti anymore, nor did they dare to bully her, for they were afraid of following in Concubine Qiao's footsteps.

These concubines can only go to the Empress Dowager to complain. Many of them were selected by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace and have close ties with the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager has to consider them and persuade the Emperor to at least treat them equally!

The Queen Mother listened to the concubines' complaints and pleas and sent people to invite the Emperor several times.

However, the emperor declined the offer on the grounds that he was busy with government affairs.

She sent someone to deliver the tonic to the Qinzheng Palace, and the emperor ordered it to be returned intact.

At this moment, the Queen Mother looked at the high-ranking concubines crying in the hall and the black medicine that had already gone cold, and she felt something was not good.

In the past, the empress dowager felt that Emperor Xiao Ping was like the water in the cup. She could see through him at a glance, but he was also obedient and never refused anything she asked him to do.

Now, I feel that Emperor Xiao Ping is hard to understand and not as obedient as before.

After the concubines had finished complaining, they saw that the empress dowager seemed to have no solution, so they lost interest and bowed and left, leaving only Concubine Li alone.

Concubine Li came from the Empress Dowager's mother's family and was a cousin of the Empress.

But the relationship between the two was not close.

The Queen Mother held a cup of fragrant tea, glanced at Concubine Li who was sitting upright below her, waved her hand, dismissed the palace maids, and said:

"Everyone's gone, just say whatever you want to say."

Concubine Li was beautiful and dressed luxuriously. She leaned slightly toward the Queen Mother and whispered, "Queen Mother, have you noticed that the Emperor has changed?"

"Hmm" the Queen Mother lowered her eyes.

Concubine Li came closer and said, "I think it's all that Concubine Zhen's fault. The emperor was not like this before she entered the palace."

The Queen Mother raised her eyelids slightly, "What do you want to do?"

Concubine Li's bright eyes flashed, "This is what I think——"

The hall is filled with sandalwood incense, concealing conspiracy and plotting.
