Chapter 34 The Cruel and Impotent Emperor and His Favorite Concubine 7
Chapter 34 The Cruel and Impotent Emperor and His Favorite Concubine 7
The atmosphere in the palace shifted from gloomy to sunny, and everyone noticed it, especially the fact that the emperor no longer seemed ready to kill at any moment.
The Imperial Concubine was also deeply favored by the Emperor, who would either summon her to accompany him or have her stay overnight at the Phoenix Palace.
This made the ministers restless. The emperor had been on the throne for several years and had always been cruel and bloodthirsty. If anything displeased him, someone would be beheaded.
But now everything has changed. The emperor is no longer going mad, and no one has died in the palace for many days.
It's so calm, I'm not used to it.
After court that day, just as the prime minister was about to leave the palace, he overheard people talking: "The prime minister has really benefited greatly. His daughter is a concubine, and the emperor is now doting on her the most."
"The rewards kept coming in like a never-ending stream."
"And even the Prime Minister has benefited; didn't His Majesty just reward him with another hundred taels of gold?"
The prime minister merely frowned but did not speak to stop them, after all, what they said was true; Yue'er was indeed favored, and the emperor had clearly changed.
I don't know how Yue'er managed to do that; I can only try my best not to hold her back.
The prime minister shook his head and went back.
But this did not stop. On this day, during court, a minister suggested that the emperor should fill the harem to ensure the continuation of the imperial line and that the throne would be inherited by future generations.
After the emperor ascended the throne, he was ruthless, and no one dared to say anything or want their daughters to suffer in the palace.
Now that the Imperial Concubine holds absolute power, the benefits clearly go solely to the Prime Minister.
That's absolutely impossible.
That's why some ministers made that suggestion.
The emperor frowned as he looked at his ministers below. He hadn't thought of that; he was only focused on his improved health.
After all, with the Imperial Concubine by his side, he didn't need any other women.
With more women comes more offspring, and in the end, everyone fights and struggles for them, but no one benefits. He was framed, which is why he hasn't experienced the joys of being a man for so many years.
"I already have a Consort, I don't need any other women."
The emperor said in a deep voice.
The ministers all looked as if they had seen a ghost. His Majesty was ill again? The emperor only had one woman?
"Your Majesty, it is inevitable that the Imperial Concubine will sometimes be negligent in serving you alone. If there were more concubines, it would be more appropriate for her to serve you."
One of the ministers suggested it.
The prime minister glanced coldly at him, his eyes fixed on his daughter. It seemed that no one wanted their daughter to enter the palace back then, but now that his daughter was favored, they were jealous.
But that's also true. How could an emperor only have one concubine? Everyone says there are three thousand beauties in the harem, but there aren't really three thousand. There must be at least a hundred or so.
The prime minister couldn't help but worry. His daughter was so kind and gentle; how could she withstand the torment of the women in the harem?
The emperor's face was gloomy. He felt that the imperial concubine served him very well, always accommodating him, and was gentle in nature. Not to mention her appearance, which was one in a million, she was also the daughter of the prime minister. She could be the empress.
"We'll discuss this later. Everyone, disperse." The emperor left, his face displeased.
This attitude has stirred up everyone's interest, and they've already started planning who to send to the palace.
In Fengyi Palace, Xiao Tao hesitated several times, looking worried. She didn't know how to tell the Empress.
"Xiao Tao, just say what you want to say, don't hold it in," Chu Yue said reproachfully to Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao stamped her foot anxiously and said, "Your Highness, how can you still have the mind to tease me?"
"Tell me, what's wrong?" Chu Yue stopped teasing her; the child was getting really anxious.
Xiao Tao hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty, everyone in the palace is saying that His Majesty should hold a selection of concubines..."
After speaking, he looked nervously at Chu Yue's expression.
Chu Yue's expression remained unchanged. Even if more people came in, the emperor could only look and not eat.
"Miss, Your Highness, aren't you worried?" Xiao Tao cried out anxiously.
Her young lady is truly unfortunate. She was sent to the palace when His Majesty was cruel and inhumane. She barely escaped with her life and gained His Majesty's favor, but then others became envious.
Chu Yue smiled helplessly, looking at how anxious this little girl was.
"Xiao Tao, what are you worried about with your mistress's abilities? Even with His Majesty's fierceness, I can still turn danger into safety. What's there to be afraid of if someone from the harem comes?"
"Okay, don't worry."
Chu Yue spoke patiently.
Xiao Tao thought about it carefully and realized that the Empress was the smartest, managing to make His Majesty very happy.
His Majesty visits the Phoenix Palace every day.
"Alright, go and prepare. His Majesty will be here soon."
Chu Yue instructed, "This emperor really comes every day. Even if he's busy during the day, he still wants her to come and keep him company. Not to mention at night, he hasn't had a single night off except when Chu Yue is unavailable. He's really full of energy!"
Xiao Tao figured it out and happily withdrew.
Since the emperor regained his confidence, he has walked much more lightly, and things that used to easily anger him are now considered trivial matters.
It was still early, but the emperor couldn't wait any longer and headed to the Phoenix Palace. He didn't want to be a foolish ruler obsessed with beautiful women, but he hadn't enjoyed it before, so he had to make up for it now.
So he put everything aside and came to the Imperial Concubine's place. The Imperial Concubine was delicate and soft, and it was most comfortable to hold her.
"His Majesty has arrived..."
The announcement came from outside, and Chu Yue hurried to the palace gate to greet him: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects..."
The emperor strode forward and helped Chu Yue up, saying, "My beloved concubine, you may rise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty..."
The emperor pulled the person inside, while the others stood guard outside. As soon as they were inside, the emperor impatiently grabbed the person and started kissing them.
The imperial concubine's flesh was soft and sticky, making him love it so much that he couldn't put it down and couldn't stop eating it.
At first, Chu Yue wasn't used to the emperor's enthusiastic manner, but she eventually gave in. Besides, she couldn't refuse, or she would suffer again.
After a while, the sounds of kissing and sucking finally stopped, and the emperor still held her tightly, his forehead pressed against hers.
Chu Yue blushed and breathed heavily, her clothes were torn open, revealing her chest.
"My beloved concubine," the emperor said in a low, hoarse voice.
Chu Yue trembled slightly, her eyelashes quivering, and she whispered, "Your Majesty..."
The emperor tensed up, swept the person up in his arms and carried them to the bed, then lowered his head and kissed them again.
Outside, Xiao Lezi and Xiao Tao exchanged a smile. They were used to it; His Majesty always spent some time cuddling with the Imperial Concubine before coming over.
Just wait outside carefully.
The two of them timed it perfectly, mouthing the numbers: "Three, two..."
"One"
"Come in and serve me," the emperor's slightly hoarse voice rang out.
Xiao Lezi and Xiao Tao chuckled to themselves and quickly went inside.
Chu Yue was in the inner room when Xiao Tao came in, unable to contain her smile: "Your Highness, this servant will help you change your clothes."
Chu Yue glared at her, her face flushed. Her Majesty was embracing and kissing her regardless of the occasion, which was really annoying.
Xiao Tao helped her change her clothes before helping her out, and then quietly withdrew.
"My beloved concubine, come here." The emperor wished time would pass more slowly, otherwise he could be closer to his concubine.
Chu Yue walked up to her, "Your Majesty..."
The emperor once again held her on his lap, gazing at her delicate cheeks and gently stroking them.
Only with the Imperial Concubine could his heart be filled with excitement.
The Imperial Concubine cured him and devoted herself to serving him. Even though she herself had a volatile temper in the past, the Imperial Concubine never showed any disdain for him.
It's only right that he receives the favor of the Imperial Concubine. Now those ministers are trying to put other women in his favor, but they're just jealous because the Imperial Concubine is so popular.
"My beloved concubine, if someone from the inner palace comes, will you resent me?"
The emperor stared intently into her eyes and asked.
Chu Yue trembled, her face turning pale. Her lips trembled as she stammered, "Your Majesty... are you going to hold a selection of concubines?"
The beauty was visibly distressed, and the emperor couldn't bear it. After all, the Consort had been in the palace for so long, serving him perfectly without making a single mistake.
"It was just the ministers' suggestion; I did not do that."
The emperor explained.
"Your Majesty... will you forget about me now that you have other sisters?"
Chu Yue's eyes were glistening with tears.
The emperor never expected that his casual remark would upset the imperial concubine so much. For so long, it had been just the two of them. If there were other people around, the imperial concubine probably wouldn't be able to accept it.
“There is no one else,” the emperor reassured her.
Chu Yue gave a desolate smile: "Your Majesty is the ruler of the world, and all the beauties of the world should come to the palace. Even I understand this principle. Why would Your Majesty deceive me?"
"Even if there are other women in the harem, I only want the Imperial Concubine, okay?"
The Emperor was grateful for the Consort's companionship during these days, because he had regained his confidence as a man with her, and this special feeling was something he could never forget.
"Your Majesty, I believe in you..." Chu Yue whispered, nestled against him.
The emperor sighed, his expression hardly one of belief. Oh well, he'd better spend more time with her.
