Outside the window, the light of the silver moon and river of stars fell into the Roaring Dragon Pond. There were no lights in the waterside pavilion.
From the window, she could vaguely see a woman in red sitting alone in the waterside pavilion. The woman had the aloof and proud aura of a sovereign ruling the world, making people feel that just looking at her from afar was offensive.
When Dongfang Liren saw her sister practicing martial arts, there was a hint of envy in her eyes. It was just like watching Ye Jingtang practice martial arts.
Her elder sister was the opposite of her. Her zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting skills were average, but her talent in martial arts was so good that it made one’s hair stand on end. Because martial arts in Great Wei was in vogue, her father and mother had doted on her sister more since they were children.
She believed that her talent wasn’t bad. But compared to a prodigy like her sister, her talent in martial arts was like the empress dowager’s talent in painting compared to hers. Even though she had been diligently practicing martial arts since she was young, she was still getting further and further away from her sister.
Orginally, she had thought that she would only be second to her sister in this life. But she never expected that Ye Jingtang would appear in the capital. In just a few months, he was pressing down on her like a celestial being. Moreover, he didn’t know the ways of the world at all and kept mocking her…
As for who was more powerful, her sister or Ye Jingtang, she wasn’t sure. Currently, she felt that her sister was still more powerful. After all, her sister was sitting on the throne that only men could sit on since ancient times.
Since ancient times, there had been countless monarchs who had lost their country because of immorality, but there were not many monarchs who had been forced to step down.
This was because, in order to protect themselves, the previous monarchs would choose a good seedling with extraordinary talent, raise him by their side since he was young, and let him practice the pictures of the Roaring Dragon Chart that they had gathered.
There was also such a person in Great Wei. Because the Roaring Dragon Chart pictures had been lost when Great Yan perished, this person was a young eunuch in the palace of the previous dynasty. He had practiced four of the Roaring Dragon Chart pictures and had been less than 12 years old. He had guarded the palace alone and covered the escape of the last emperor of Yan.
After her grandfather captured the young eunuch, he didn’t kill him. Instead, he had used emotions and reason and promised to treat the Yan imperial family well to make him loyal to Great Wei.
The young eunuch agreed and became Great Wei’s Imperial City’s ‘Guardian Eunuch Cao’. When her grandfather passed away, he would protect her father. When her father passed away, he would protect the emperor’s eldest son.
Eunuch Cao was the stabilizing anchor by the Great Wei monarch’s side. When her sister wanted to usurp the throne, Eunuch Cao naturally became an insurmountable chasm. Even though the new emperor was anxious for quick success and resisted by the court officials, and her sister had the support of her maternal family, as long as Eunuch Cao didn’t fall, the emperor could still advance and retreat freely. Even if he couldn’t defend the palace, he could still escape to the territory of the various princes.
At the time, she was about to be married off to the enemy country, Northern Liang. She was already in despair and was ready to hide her identity and escape. Who would have thought that when she woke up one morning, she would become the highest-ranking prince of the blood of Great Wei? From then on, she no longer had to worry about being controlled by others.
These things happened on that night ten years ago. Outsiders only knew that the court officials had impeached the emperor and made him abdicate. They didn’t know what had happened in the palace that night and how many people had died. Even she didn’t know how her sister had done it.
But she knew that her sister was stronger than she imagined. She looked very coquettish on the outside, but there was a towering, indomitable mountain within her body. No matter how strong a storm was, she wouldn’t frown…
While Dongfang Liren was secretly admiring her sister, she suddenly noticed that her sister in the waterside pavilion was frowning slightly. She was holding her forehead with her hand, looking as delicate as a drunk noble consort.
??
Dongfang Liren was stunned for a moment. Then she rushed out of the window, tapped the blue waves with her toes, and arrived at the waterside pavilion in the middle of the lake. She held the frowning empress with her eyes closed. “Sister?”
The empress raised her hand slightly and gently hooked her long hair with her fingertips to cover the inconspicuous white hair between her black hair. She said casually, “I’m fine. Continue with your work.”
Dongfang Liren blinked and carefully checked her sister’s complexion. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, she nodded slightly…

The long night was silent.
The lights in Double Osmanthus Alley had already been extinguished.
In the main room, the blue curtain was lowered. Zhe Yunli was wearing an undergarment with a small embroidered bird and had a thin blanket over her stomach. She was sleeping soundly with her limbs spread out on the inside.
Luo Ning was lying on her side on the outside of the bed. There was a thin blanket around her waist, revealing her snow-white shoulders. She was stroking the emerald green jade pendant in her hand and wanted to sleep, but the complicated emotions in her heart were disturbing her.
Since his yang qi is too strong, it will be easy for him to become flighty and impetuous if not regulated…
In a battle of life and death between experts, a single thought can mean the difference between life and death…
Miss Ninger, you have to let go. This kind of thing is very normal between husband and wife. This is for the sake of your husband. Don’t have any psychological burden…
Sigh…
Luo Ning listened carefully. There was no longer any movement in the west wing not far away. He’s probably asleep.
Since he doesn’t care about his body, why should 1 foolishly worry about it…
But the little thief fights all day long. The Zhou family and Xu Bailin hate him to the core. If he makes one careless mistake…
People in Jianghu shouldn’t act on impulse. From a rational point of view, 1 have already treated him once. If 1 give up halfway and cause an accident to happen to the little thief, won’t 1 suffer a double loss…
I’m still counting on the little thief to deal with the old bald donkey Shenchen…
Luo Ning’s heart was in a mess for a long time. In the end, her rationality prevailed. She gritted her teeth and sat up silently…
In the west wing, the curtain of the canopy bed was lowered, and a robe was hung on the clothes rack beside the bed.
Ye Jingtang was lying on his pillow with a thin moon-white blanket covering him. He was holding the book in his arms and sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.
Whoosh!
A gust of night wind blew silently into the rooms, causing ripples on the curtain.
Ye Jingtang woke up with a start. He opened his eyes slightly. There was no light in the room, and he could only hear sound coming from outside the curtain.
Bustle, rustle-
It was the sound of a dress being taken off.
?!
Ye Jingtang was really surprised and flattered.
Soon, the curtain was opened, and the thin blanket was lifted. Then a soft and fragrant body rolled in silently with her back facing him.
Ye Jingtang closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
After waiting for a moment, the woman beside him looked back and then prepared to get up and leave.
Ye Jingtang quickly woke up and whispered into her ear, “Heroine Luo, can’t you sleep tonight?”
The familiar light and gentle voice of the elder sister sounded coldly in her ear. “Little thief, don’t flatter yourself. Madam Wang said that I should treat you today. Otherwise, your heart might be unstable, and you might have an accident while fighting someone. Do you think 1 want to come over?”
Ye Jingtang was very touched. After some thought, he asked, “What about tomorrow?”
?
Luo Ning hesitated for a moment before saying coldly, “1’11 ask tomorrow.”
Ye Jingtang smiled and didn’t say anything else. He raised his hand and touched her bare waist. Her skin was smooth and delicate. As soon as he touched the big moon, his wrist was grabbed. “Hmm?”
Luo Ning said in a low voice, “I’m only here to treat you, not to be intimate with you. When you do it, you’re too slow. 1… I’m in a hurry to go back to sleep.”
?
Ye Jingtang didn’t feel he was wrong for this. 1 can’t be fast for this…
Bustle, rustle-
There was a movement beside him. He turned around and felt her warmth pressing on his body. It seemed like she wanted to get on the horse directly!
?
Ye Jingtang couldn’t see Luo Ning’s face, but he knew that she must be biting her lower lip lightly, her eyes filled with helplessness, looking as if she was being forced and humiliated.
Ye Jingtang naturally wouldn’t stop her. He just waited eagerly.
Bub, rub-
Ye Jingtang wanted to raise his hands, but Heroine Luo stopped him. He could only say gently, “Can you do it?”
“Yes…” Heroine Luo said stubbornly like a mosquito.
Ye Jingtang held the back of his head with both hands and didn’t move. He just said, “It’s not good to keep knocking Yunli out…”
“It’s not knocking her out. It’s a sleeping aid. She didn’t sleep well when she was a child, and her master often did this.”
“Why don’t we buy a new house?”
“This is your house. Make your own decision… Keep this one…”
“Okay.”
It was silent inside the canopy bed except for the slight ripples on the curtain.
After an unknown period of silence, Ye Jingtang’s voice sounded again. “Heroine Luo, didn’t you read the book today?”
“How could i look at such a dirty thing… Little thief, don’t speak. Otherwise, I’ll go back to sleep.”
