Chapter 3 - 31-40

Chapter 31

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

"What do you mean?" Lin Shuwan stared at Qin Zhao with wariness and unfamiliarity in his eyes.

Seeing that Lin Shuwan was already approaching the edge of the bed and was about to get up and run out, Qin Zhao stood up with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

He did not continue the previous topic, but slowly approached Lin Shuwan and whispered: "Whether you believe it or not, I am indeed the emperor. I want you, who in the world dares to interfere?"

Lin Shuwan looked at him nervously, his heart beating faster.

"If you are really His Majesty? Then do you know that I am the daughter-in-law of Marquis Jing'an? Your Majesty, would you risk the wrath of the world and forcibly seize the wife of a minister?"

Qin Zhao's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a smile that looked down on the world appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said: "If the Jing'an Marquis Mansion no longer exists, where will the minister's wife come from?"

Lin Shuwan's eyes widened in shock, and he said in disbelief, "You want to attack Jing'an Marquis' Mansion?"

Qin Zhao sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and gently stroked Lin Shuwan's fair cheek, and whispered: "For you, why not?"

Lin Shuwan was shocked. She didn't expect Qin Zhao to be so crazy. She tried to calm herself down and said, "You can't do this. The people in Jing'an Marquis' Mansion are innocent. You can't kill innocent people."

Qin Zhao frowned slightly. He didn't want to hear Lin Shuwan pleading for another man. He grabbed Lin Shuwan's hand, squeezed it hard, and said, "How about sacrificing one of us in exchange for the safety of Jing'an Marquis's Mansion? In my eyes, nothing is more important than you. As long as you are willing to be with me, I can do whatever it takes."

Although Qin Zhao said this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion had long been rotten. If they wanted to find any evidence, they would be able to find a lot of it. It would be a piece of cake to destroy the Marquis of Jing'an!

Lin Shuwan was extremely conflicted. She didn't know whether she should just use the "Spring Breeze" method.

Qin Zhao will stay in Fajue Temple for three days. These three days are just enough for Qin Zhao to know how special she is. Then he can bring her directly into the palace, and she can get pregnant and give birth to a baby sooner!

Just when Lin Shuwan was hesitating, Qin Zhao suddenly pulled her into his arms and kissed her lips. Lin Shuwan couldn't break free from Qin Zhao's restraints, and soon immersed herself in this passionate kiss...

Lin Shuwan took out the Spring Breeze Talisman from the storage compartment and stuck it directly on Qin Zhao's body.

Qin Zhao had been immersed in Lin Shuwan's tenderness and affection, when he suddenly felt an uncontrollable heat and rising desire in his lower abdomen, making him want to dismantle the woman in front of him and eat her.

No, you can't touch her!

If you touch her, she will die in three days!

Qin Zhao wanted to pull away, but his body seemed to have its own consciousness and locked tightly around the person beneath him.

The passionate kiss became even hotter. He clamped Lin Shuwan's hands on her head with one hand, and with the other hand, he pulled hard to rip off the pajamas covering Lin Shuwan.

The small dress embroidered with green lotus was torn to the ground, revealing the white jade-like lining.

Lin Shuwan seemed to react suddenly and struggled to escape from Qin Zhao's body, but her body was held down tightly, and a hand with slightly calloused skin was attached to her inner body.

Her lips were tightly blocked, and the hot lips and tongue shattered all her struggles and whimpers.

Pieces of clothes were thrown out of the bed one by one, and Qin Zhao's bloodshot eyes were fixed on the woman under him.

The fair body is like a carefully carved jade, exuding a faint luster. Every part of the skin is as smooth as silk, delicate and elastic, and you can feel its jade-like texture with a light touch.

Her icy skin and sweat-free figure made him infatuated and obsessed.

He was intoxicated and enchanted by it.

Lin Shuwan seemed to sense something as her dress was torn off. She shook her head in fear and said in panic, "No! Please! Don't!"

Lin Shuwan's eyes were filled with tears. The fear and timidity in her eyes made Qin Zhao's heart ache, but a strong possessive desire emerged in his heart.

Such a beautiful person should be by his side.

Qin Zhao really wanted to stop right there, he didn't want her to die, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, and he had only one thought at this moment.

Possess her!

Just like in the dream, possess her fiercely!

That way she won't be thinking about other men.

Qin Zhao lowered his head and kissed Lin Shuwan's lips, whispering softly: "I'm sorry!"

Suddenly, the bed curtains shook violently and the bed creaked, marking the beginning of the war.

Everything is messed up!

...

Qin Zhao buried his head in the crook of Lin Shuwan's neck, breathing heavily, his hands still tightly around her waist.

Just when Lin Shuwan thought that the battle was over, Qin Zhao quickly regrouped and launched a new round of campaign.

...

The battle was long and short, and it was not until dawn that Qin Zhao sounded the drum to call back his troops.

Lin Shuwan had no idea how many times he had fainted.

The skin, which was originally as white as jade, was now covered with many red and blue blemishes, which looked very unsightly and made Qin Zhao feel guilty and strangely satisfied.

He did everything he shouldn't have done!

Three days later...will she leave me like those women?

Qin Zhao casually put on a piece of clothing, wrapped the woman who had fainted on the bed tightly with a quilt, then picked her up and opened the door.

The maid at the door had been carried back to the room by the secret guards, and everyone in the yard was unconscious.

As Qin Zhao carried someone out, Liu Youxi, who was guarding outside, was slightly startled. Then he thought of the sound he had heard all night and sighed in his heart.

Since His Majesty learned about his fate, he has never touched other women, and today he has broken his vow.

I don't know if this Miss Lin is just like those women, a flash in the pan and dies after three days?

Qin Zhao ordered Liu Youxi: "Clean up the room!"

After Qin Zhao finished speaking, he carried Lin Shuwan back to his room.

The bathroom in the room was already equipped with hot water. Qin Zhao threw the quilt casually on the ground, then stepped into the bathtub holding Lin Shuwan.

The warm water made Lin Shuwan's originally frowned brows relax a little. Qin Zhao looked at the marks on the white jade, he closed his eyes, and finally suppressed the impulse in his heart. He couldn't touch her anymore, otherwise he would hurt her!

After they finished bathing, Qin Zhao held Lin Shuwan in his arms and lay on his bed.

He held Lin Shuwan tightly in his arms, bent down and kissed Lin Shuwan's forehead. Looking at the pretty and fair face in front of him, his eyes were full of guilt and heartache.

The sky was bright, Lin Shuwan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt extremely uncomfortable all over.

Bao Jieer laughed and said, "Sister, how was your real experience? Wasn't it great? The man I found for you is pretty good, isn't he?"

*******

Chapter 32

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Lin Shuwan groaned and said to Bao Jieer, "Last night I was like a salted fish, being pressed on an iron plate, over and over again, squeezed back and forth..."

"But..." At this point, Lin Shuwan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "The dog emperor doesn't have many skills, it's really ecstasy~"

Suddenly, Lin Shuwan asked sharply, "So when I was doing things with the Dog Emperor last night, you were watching in real time?"

[Ahem...] Bao Jieer said with a guilty conscience: [Not really.] At most, it could hear the sound, and then see two large groups of mosaics of different colors. Although it couldn't see clearly, it could guess which stage it had entered.

Lin Shuwan said "Oh", but she didn't really believe what Bao Jie'er said. After all, Bao Jie'er was a pervert.

After Lin Shuwan finished communicating with Bao Jie'er, he opened his eyes tiredly. What he saw was bright yellow everywhere. There was a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the air. The room was empty and very quiet.

The window was open and some sunlight shone in, showing that it was already late.

Lin Shuwan sat up suddenly, and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over. She rubbed her back and bit her lips, but found that her lips were still numb. She cursed Qin Zhao in her heart: Dog emperor! Not a human!

Her waist is almost broken!

[The emperor is about to walk out the door, get ready! ]

The expression on Lin Shuwan's face changed. He rubbed his extremely sore waist vigorously, blinked his eyes, and tears immediately flowed down. Low sobs and whimpers could be heard.

Qin Zhao was holding a bowl of porridge in his hand. Just as he walked to the door, he heard crying sounds coming from inside. He hurriedly pushed the door open and saw the girl seemed to be frightened. She hurriedly wrapped herself in the quilt and curled up in the corner of the bed. Her eyes were red and she looked at him with horror.

Qin Zhao turned around and closed the door, then casually placed the food on the table. Just as he was about to walk towards Lin Shuwan, he was stopped by the other party.

Lin Shuwan's eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse and sharp: "Don't come over here!"

Qin Zhao paused, and his face, which was always in control of the situation, showed a hint of hesitation: "I'm sorry, last night..."

When last night was mentioned, Lin Shuwan was like a cat with its fur standing on end. Her originally pale face instantly turned red, then turned pale, and finally turned ashen. She widened her eyes and stared at Qin Zhao intently, as if she wanted to eat him alive.

Her lips trembled, and her voice also trembled, but she finally turned into a loud shout: "Nothing happened between us last night! No matter who you are, we have nothing to do with each other!"

Qin Zhao's eyes dimmed. He stood there silently, looking at Lin Shuwan's resistant and painful expression, his heart filled with guilt and helplessness.

"I know you may not be able to accept it for the time being, but I will give you time." Qin Zhao said softly.

Lin Shuwan huddled in the corner, her body trembling slightly, her eyes still full of fear and vigilance.

"Get out! I don't want to see you again!" Lin Shuwan hissed.

Qin Zhao sighed, turned around slowly and walked towards the door.

"I will ask someone to send some supplements and clothes. You should have a good rest." After saying that, he gently closed the door, leaving Lin Shuwan alone in the room.

After everyone left, Lin Shuwan wiped the tears from her face neatly. She took a deep breath, and her sobs became louder and louder, and could be heard directly outside.

Qin Zhao stood at the door of the room, his eyes full of regret and deep regret in his heart for his impulsive behavior last night!

Liu Youxi was waiting in the yard and had just vaguely heard the voice in the room. Seeing Qin Zhao's expressionless face, he was unsure how important the person inside was to the emperor.

Alas, this woman is the daughter-in-law of Marquis Jing'an, and His Majesty could not control himself and directly asked for her.

Liu Youxi stepped forward respectfully and reported, "Your Majesty, everyone in Miss Lin's courtyard has been controlled, and no one will gossip about her. When the palace servants were cleaning Miss Lin's room this morning, they found blood on the couch."

Qin Zhao nodded, not showing any surprise. He had already investigated everything, and he could have sensed it last night.

Qin Zhao looked at Doctor Fu who was waiting on the side.

Doctor Fu stepped forward and kowtowed, reporting: "Your Majesty, I have checked everything in the room and found nothing that could cause aphrodisiacs."

Qin Zhao lowered his eyes and then waved his hand: "Go down! Liu Youxi, go and bring the maidservant who serves Miss Lin over and take good care of Miss Lin."

There are still three days left, and he will try to fulfill Lin Shuwan's wish during these three days.

"Yes." Liu Youxi stepped back.

After a while, Liu Youxi came in with Chunxin and Chunya.

The two maids looked pale and their emotions were a little unstable. When they saw Qin Zhao, they immediately knelt down and kowtowed to greet him.

"See your majesty, long live your majesty!"

Qin Zhao looked at the two kneeling maids and ordered, "Get up! Go into the house and take good care of your young lady. If you need anything, just tell Liu Youxi."

When Chun Xin and Chun Ya heard this, their faces turned pale. Their young lady was not in her own room, but appeared in His Majesty's room. If nothing happened in between, no one would believe it if they told others! If the Marquis of Jing'an and the General's Mansion knew about this, that the young lady had an affair with a man outside, then the young lady...

Harunobu and Harume looked at each other and saw despair in each other's eyes. But they could only kowtow to express their gratitude and then trembled as they entered the room.

As soon as the two entered, they saw their young lady huddled in the corner of the bed, trembling with fear. They felt distressed, but did not dare to approach rashly. They only dared to stand where they were and call softly, "Miss?"

Lin Shuwan heard the voice and slowly raised her head. Her eyes were as red as a rabbit. She glanced at Chunxin and Chunya, and tears suddenly fell again. She choked and said, "Chunxin, Chunya... wuwuwu, I... I... wuwu..."

Chunya and Chunxin felt distressed and worried when they saw their young lady like this, and hurried forward to comfort her.

Lin Shuwan sobbed for a long time, and his emotions gradually calmed down. He said in a hoarse voice: "I have lost my innocence now. Only death can save the reputation of Jing'an Marquis Mansion and the General Mansion!"

After hearing this, Chunya and Chunxin fell to their knees in fear. "Miss, you must not do that! Only if you are alive can there be hope! And that person is His Majesty. As long as His Majesty wants to protect you, you will definitely be safe!"

Lin Shuwan cried, "But I don't have the face to see anyone again..."

Harunobu advised, "Miss, we need to think about this matter carefully. Maybe there is a chance for a turnaround. Why don't you wash up and eat something first? Your health is the most important thing!"

Lin Shuwan gradually stopped crying and took advantage of the situation. If she continued crying, she would run out of water.

Then Lin Shuwan let them do whatever they wanted. After washing up, Lin Shuwan changed her clothes and ate something. Her complexion looked better.

Chapter 33

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Lin Shuwan sat in a chair, thinking about the way forward.

She calculated the time and realized that the talismans she had previously cast on Qin Zhao, Chen Siyuan, Madam Hou, and Marquis Jing'an should have expired by now.

While Lin Shuwan was still thinking, Qin Zhao pushed the door and walked in.

When the two looked at each other, Lin Shuwan lowered his head first, his body trembled slightly, and the fear and timidity that flashed in his eyes made Qin Zhao frown.

It turned out that I was too impatient and scared her.

Qin Zhao pursed his lips and said, "You..."

Lin Shuwan knelt on the ground, bowed her head, and said tremblingly: "I deserve to die. I have offended Your Majesty. Please punish me."

Qin Zhao looked at Lin Shuwan kneeling in front of him with lowered head and a trembling look. He felt very uncomfortable. He took a step forward and wanted to help Lin Shuwan up, but Lin Shuwan quickly knelt down and took a few steps back, tears rolling down to the ground.

Qin Zhao had a good eye. Seeing Lin Shuwan avoiding him like a snake, his expression became even worse. He did not take another step forward. He sat on the chair next to him and looked down at her.

Qin Zhao stared at Lin Shuwan, his eyes unconsciously sliding down her cheek to her neck. Although his vision was a little blurry, he could still vaguely see the mottled marks on her neck left last night.

These traces reminded him of the passionate moments of last night, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

"Is it really that scary?" Qin Zhao whispered to himself, with a hint of helplessness and loss in his voice. He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and then slowed down his tone and said, "Look up."

When Lin Shuwan heard Qin Zhao's words, his body trembled involuntarily.

However, she still obediently raised her head slowly, with tears in her eyes, looking at Qin Zhao pitifully.

Qin Zhao saw Lin Shuwan's aggrieved look, and he couldn't help but feel pity for her. He sighed softly and said slowly:

"Forget it. I was wrong about what happened last night. Get up now."

After hearing what Qin Zhao said, Lin Shuwan's face flashed with surprise, but she quickly regained her composure. She hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up carefully, lowered her head and stood quietly aside.

Qin Zhao looked at Lin Shuwan, feeling somewhat helpless. He knew that Lin Shuwan was afraid of him, but he did not want them to remain at such a distance.

"There's no need to be so formal between you and me." Qin Zhao said gently, his eyes always fixed on Lin Shuwan.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."

Lin Shuwan nodded slightly and replied in a low voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qin Zhao looked at Lin Shuwan deeply, his heart filled with an indescribable feeling: "Whatever you want, you can ask for it. I can compensate you with whatever I can do."

Hearing this, Lin Shuwan raised his head and glanced at him carefully, as if thinking about what he said. After a long while, Lin Shuwan whispered, "Your Majesty, can we just pretend that nothing happened last night?"

Qin Zhao said with mixed feelings: "Do you really want to cut off your relationship with me?"

"Your Majesty, I have never seen you before." Lin Shuwan lowered her head and spoke in a low voice.

Qin Zhao looked at the timid and petty Lin Shuwan, who was completely different from the passionate and bold girl in his dream. He couldn't help but wonder if he had found the wrong person!

But last night's tests and experiences told him that he had chosen the right person!

"Forget it. I will issue an order to let everyone keep silent about this matter. Apart from this matter, do you have any other requests?" Qin Zhao was still very generous to his woman, especially the one who was going to die in three days.

"I want to go back to the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion."

Qin Zhao sighed and said softly, "Okay. I will arrange guards to escort you back tomorrow. But, can you accompany me for a walk today?"

Lin Shuwan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Qin Zhao's mouth curled up slightly, and a trace of joy flashed through his heart. He stood up, reached out and held Lin Shuwan's hand, and said slowly: "Let's go."

Lin Shuwan couldn't struggle free, so he had to follow Qin Zhao's footsteps and walk out.

Qin Zhao took her to the maple forest near Fajue Temple. This maple forest has existed for many years. Every autumn, the leaves turn bright red, as if the whole world is dyed with a layer of gorgeous colors.

The sunlight shone through the gaps between the maple leaves, forming golden rays. Qin Zhao and she walked slowly in this beautiful maple forest, hand in hand.

Not far away, there was a wooden swing on a tree trunk. Qin Zhao's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Lin Shuwan: "Do you want to go play?"

This was just like the scene when he first dreamed of Lin Shuwan!

Lin Shuwan smiled sheepishly and said, "This swing was installed by my servants a few days ago. I had a dream that seemed to be true before. Although I don't remember what happened in the dream, I only remember this swing."

Qin Zhao's eyes became brighter.

Lin Shuwan let go of Qin Zhao's hand and took the initiative to sit on the swing, which swayed gently.

Qin Zhao stood behind her and helped her push the swing. Gradually, the atmosphere between the two eased and Lin Shuwan also let go and played.

"Haha, higher, push higher~"

"It's fun, so fun~"

Lin Shuwan smiled very happily, and Qin Zhao's expression was also very gentle.

Suddenly, there were light footsteps in the woods, like someone stepping on maple leaves.

Qin Zhao's eyes suddenly brightened, and he grabbed Lin Shuwan, who was on the swing, around the waist. With a quick move, a hidden weapon grazed Qin Zhao's cheek, then cut the rope on the swing and stabbed it hard into the maple tree next to him.

Qin Zhao held Lin Shuwan and hid behind a maple tree. A thin scratch was left on his face, and bright red blood soon flowed out.

Qin Zhao looked around vigilantly, while Lin Shuwan leaned on him in panic. She had never experienced such a dangerous situation before, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Don't be afraid." Qin Zhao whispered to comfort him, and at the same time secretly felt lucky that he had discovered the danger in time.

This hidden weapon was like a command. More than thirty assassins in black fell from the bushes or trees. Holding swords, they quickly rushed towards Qin Zhao and Lin Shuwan.

Qin Zhao's face was stern. He snapped his fingers, and more than a dozen dark guards in black fell from different directions, protecting Qin Zhao and Lin Shuwan in the encirclement.

The secret guards raised their swords and chopped off the assassins' heads very neatly. The blood made the red maple leaves on the ground even brighter.

A bloody assassination ended very quickly.

Lin Shuwan's face turned pale. She trembled in Qin Zhao's arms, her hands tightly grasping his clothes. Her nostrils were filled with a strong smell of blood, which almost made her nauseous.

It was the first time she had seen such a bloody scene.

********

Chapter 34

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Qin Zhao quickly took her away from the scene. He looked at Lin Shuwan's pale face and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lin Shuwan waved her hand. Seeing the wound on Qin Zhao's face that was still bleeding, she took out her handkerchief and wiped Qin Zhao's face, saying, "Your Majesty, you are injured. Let's hurry back to Fajue Temple!"

"Hmm?" Qin Zhao reached out and touched his face. There was a little blood on his slender white fingers. He smiled and comforted: "It's okay, just a little..."

Qin Zhao suddenly felt a little dizzy, and saw Lin Shuwan's figure was a little shaky.

Lin Shuwan watched as Qin Zhao's originally rosy face suddenly turned a little blue.

"Your Majesty!" Lin Shuwan hurriedly supported Qin Zhao's shaking body.

The secret guard hiding in the dark heard Lin Shuwan's exclamation, and hurriedly appeared, picked up Qin Zhao on his back, and flew quickly towards the direction of Fajue Temple.

Lin Shuwan was soon escorted back to Fajue Temple by other secret guards.

When Lin Shuwan arrived, the accompanying imperial physician had already examined Qin Zhao.

Liu Youxi sent the imperial physician out and saw Lin Shuwan coming back.

Lin Shuwan asked anxiously, "Eunuch Liu, how is His Majesty? Is there anything serious?"

Liu Youxi bowed respectfully and said, "Miss Lin, can you please have a word with me?"

The two walked to the side one after the other. Liu Youxi knelt on the ground respectfully and said earnestly:

"Miss Lin, His Majesty has been poisoned! Originally, this poison alone would not be a big deal for His Majesty, but when the poison is combined with the incense His Majesty has been using for many years, it will become a strong aphrodisiac, so..."

Lin Shuwan understood immediately that she was being used as an antidote!

If she didn't go, her two maids in the temple would be women, and they would most likely be coerced or bribed into Qin Zhao's bed.

She didn't mind. Qin Zhao's skills were pretty good anyway. Sleeping with him once was the same as sleeping with him twice.

Lin Shuwan lowered his head hesitantly, his fair face full of shame and uneasiness, and said: "Eunuch Liu, last night was an accident. If it happens again today..."

"Miss Lin, your majesty is the ruler of the world. Your majesty's safety and health are more important than anything else. Protecting your majesty is the responsibility of all the people of Dazhao. Even if Marquis Jing'an is here today, he will definitely agree to my suggestions!"

Liu Youxi said with a smile that in his heart, His Majesty was interested in Miss Lin, and they had sex last night, so His Majesty would definitely not resist Miss Lin.

In Liu Youxi's heart, nothing is more important than His Majesty!

Lin Shuwan's face turned pale, then she nodded sadly and said, "Eunuch Liu is right. I am narrow-minded."

Liu Youxi immediately showed a gentle smile on his face and said, "Then Your Majesty will trouble Miss Lin today!" After he said that, he made a gesture of invitation to Lin Shuwan.

Lin Shuwan walked into Qin Zhao's room.

As the door closes.

The hesitation and uneasiness on Lin Shuwan's face disappeared instantly.

The room was very quiet. Lin Shuwan walked towards the inner room. As he walked, he slowly saw a tall and strong figure sitting on the edge of the bed.

Qin Zhao was still wearing the same casual clothes he wore during the day, with his head slightly lowered. The wound on his face had been treated, and he looked no different from usual.

"Your Majesty?" Lin Shuwan called softly.

Qin Zhao raised his head when he heard the voice, his face flushed, his eyes, which were originally as black as deep pools, were now filled with red bloodshot, his lips were tightly pursed, his brows were furrowed, and he looked like he was enduring some pain.

"Why are you here? Get out!" Qin Zhao saw Lin Shuwan, with no extra expression on his face, and scolded him in a cold and fierce voice.

Lin Shuwan did not move. She gritted her teeth, raised her hand to take off her coat, then walked to Qin Zhao, reached out and gently stroked Qin Zhao's face, with a faint smile on her lips, and said, "Your Majesty, do you really want me to go out? Then who will help you solve it?"

Her hand slid from Qin Zhao's face to his neck and gently pinched his Adam's apple.

Qin Zhao stared at Lin Shuwan's face closely, his throat rolled and he swallowed unconsciously, his scarlet eyes fixed on her.

The woman in front of him was the same as the woman in his dream, and was completely different from the one he saw during the day.

The little thing has two faces, day and night.

Qin Zhao reached out and pulled Lin Shuwan into his arms, sitting him on his lap.

Lin Shuwan could feel the surging heat, which made her fair face turn a little red, and her beautiful, clear eyes became watery.

He placed his hands on Lin Shuwan's soft waist, stroking it slowly, his eyes fixed on her, as if he had locked onto his prey and would not let go once he had bitten it.

"I'll give you one more chance, get out!"

Although he said this, the strength in his hands became tighter and tighter, and the speed and strength of his fingers rubbing gradually increased.

Lin Shuwan couldn't stand men who said one thing and meant another. She giggled a few times, put her arms around Qin Zhao's neck, and took the initiative to kiss his red lips.

"Your Majesty, were you tired last night? Are you not able to do it today?"

Qin Zhao's eyes flashed, and then he suddenly turned over and pressed Lin Shuwan under him.

He tightly sealed Lin Shuwan's lips, which he loved and hated.

His attack was fierce and passionate, as if he wanted to squeeze Lin Shuwan into his body.

Lin Shuwan responded to his enthusiasm actively, and the temperature in the room gradually rose.

Just as the two of them were immersed in each other's passion, Qin Zhao suddenly stopped, gently pressed his forehead against Lin Shuwan's, and whispered, "Are you doing this on purpose?"

A sly look flashed across Lin Shuwan's eyes as she replied, "I just want to help Your Majesty."

Qin Zhao snorted coldly and said, "Then I will fulfill your wish."

After saying that, he leaned over and kissed Lin Shuwan again...

An affair lasted from noon to late at night.

Lin Shuwan, hungry, opened his eyes tiredly.

Qin Zhao was hugging Lin Shuwan, his fingers gently sliding through her long hair, and the expression on his face was very gentle and comfortable.

Qin Zhao noticed that Lin Shuwan had woken up, and lowered his head and asked softly: "Wanwan, how do you feel now?"

Lin Shuwan blinked her eyes. The feeling of their skin touching each other made her face flush again. She said shyly, "I'm much better. Your Majesty, has the medicine worked?"

"Yeah." Qin Zhao's eyes revealed a hint of laziness and satisfaction. He smiled slightly and said with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Much better, thanks to you. Are you... willing?"

Qin Zhao stared at Lin Shuwan, as if he wanted to see her innermost thoughts through her eyes.

**********

Chapter 35

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Lin Shuwan was slightly startled, lowered her head, and said softly: "Of course, this subject volunteered. Your Majesty is the ruler of the world, and your Majesty's well-being is above all else."

Qin Zhao looked at her shy appearance, and his heart was moved. He hugged Lin Shuwan tightly and whispered: "Thank you for this matter. If there is a next time, you can just refuse directly."

Lin Shuwan chuckled in his heart. Now that he had touched her, he could forget about touching other women!

The two of them lay there for a while. Lin Shuwan's stomach was growling with hunger. She hadn't eaten for a whole day and had been exercising for so long, so she was already starving.

"Are you hungry? I have asked Liu Youxi to prepare meals. Get up and eat quickly." Qin Zhao patted Lin Shuwan's shoulder, then stood up, put on his clothes, and waved her clothes at her.

Lin Shuwan raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised that he took the initiative to serve her.

Lin Shuwan stood up with his sore waist and tired legs, and quickly put on his clothes with the help of Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao turned around and went out to ask Liu Youxi to serve the meal.

Lin Shuwan immediately took out a dragon and phoenix twins talisman from the storage compartment and slapped it on himself.

Talismans for childbirth are usually effective if used within six hours after the event.

Lin Shuwan felt that it was better to have the child as early as possible. After all, having a hundred children was a long and arduous task!

She wanted to cry but had no tears.

Bao Jieer comforted her: [Enjoying the process of the mission is also a wonderful thing~]

Lin Shuwan rubbed his sore waist, and his mind couldn't help but think of the feeling of sliding on Qin Zhao's abdominal muscles today, and he couldn't help but laugh.

The smile is very obscene.

Qin Zhao walked in and saw Lin Shuwan lowering his head and rubbing his waist. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Lin Shuwan pouted, her face full of resentment: "Yes, Your Majesty is so powerful, I feel like my waist is not my own!"

Qin Zhao stretched out his hand to hold Lin Shuwan's waist, put her on the stool in front of the dining table, and said gently: "In the future, you don't have to call yourself a minister in front of me, just call me."

Liu Youxi brought Chunya and Chunxin in with food. The three of them lowered their heads and did not dare to look around.

The three of them placed the meal on the table. Qin Zhao dismissed the three of them and took the initiative to bring a bowl of meat porridge to Lin Shuwan, saying, "Eat some porridge first."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lin Shuwan took it without hesitation and finished the meat porridge in a few mouthfuls. Qin Zhao pushed a bowl forward, which was piled with a lot of vegetables and meat, making it very rich.

After finishing the meal, Qin Zhao poured Lin Shuwan a cup of tea. He stared at Lin Shuwan in front of him with a meaningful look and asked, "Your personality today is different from what I saw before."

Lin Shuwan knew that he would definitely ask, so he smiled slightly, lowered his eyes and said:

"I was the one before, and I am still the one now. When I was in the general's mansion, my stepmother liked my cowardly and petty appearance. Later, I married into the Jing'an Marquis's mansion, where my mother-in-law was strong and needed a daughter-in-law who was easy to control."

"My personality is just right! My true nature only showed after meeting His Majesty today." Lin Shuwan knew that Qin Zhao had been observing her, so she spoke without making any mistakes.

Hearing this, Qin Zhao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes.

He thought to himself that the woman in front of him was indeed interesting, sometimes shy, sometimes bold, and very unpredictable.

"I like your true nature. You don't have to suppress yourself too much in front of me. Just be happy." Qin Zhao said softly, with a hint of pampering in his tone.

Lin Shuwan nodded. At this moment, Qin Zhao must have thought that I was a woman with only two lives left, so he spoke much more politely.

They had slept a lot during the day, so they were not sleepy at this moment. After thinking for a while, they went out of the yard together to admire the moon.

Qin Zhao put his arms around Lin Shuwan's waist, tiptoed, and flew to the roof with her in his arms.

The two sat down and looked at the bright full moon in the sky.

Lin Shuwan leaned in Qin Zhao's arms, feeling his warmth.

No one spoke, just stayed there quietly.

...

The next day.

Lin Shuwan opened her eyes. She didn't know when she fell asleep last night, and Qin Zhao was not around.

She is going back to Jing'an Marquis Mansion today.

After Lin Shuwan had breakfast, she got on the carriage of Marquis Jing'an's mansion. Qin Zhao stood beside the carriage, his brows slightly frowned, his eyes fixed on her, as if this farewell would be a parting of life and death.

Qin Zhao was originally going to practice in Fajue Temple for three days, but after having sex with Lin Shuwan, he lost the intention to continue practicing. After so many years, his fate had not changed at all, and he had become numb.

Lin Shuwan sat in the carriage, smiling, and waved to Qin Zhao, saying, "Your Majesty, goodbye~"

Qin Zhao looked at the carriage that was gradually moving away, made a gesture, and the four secret guards hiding in the dark immediately followed.

Qin Zhao's face turned cold, and he said to Liu Youxi, "Pack your things and prepare to return to Beijing."

Yesterday's sudden assassination made him more calculating. It seemed that those people were really desperate and wanted to force him to compromise in this way.

Qin Zhao revealed a sneer on his face. In that case, he would join in and see what kind of trouble these so-called candidates for the crown prince could cause.

Less than two hours after Lin Shuwan's carriage left, Qin Zhao's carriage also set out on the journey back to Beijing.

The sun shines in front of the temple, illuminating the kind face of the abbot. He holds a rosary in his hand, standing there quietly, following the carriage that is moving farther and farther away until it disappears at the end of the road in the distance.

The abbot closed his eyes slightly, clasped his hands together, and whispered: "Amitabha!" All things are empty, but cause and effect are not empty. In seemingly hopeless moments, there is often a glimmer of hope.

The carriage wobbled into the capital.

Lin Shuwan's carriage stopped in front of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

She got off the carriage and looked at the plaque hanging high in front of her with a sneer on her lips.

Qin Zhao has been dealt with, and the cub has also been kicked up, the next step is to avenge the original owner!

The accompanying guard went forward and knocked on the door.

The concierge opened the door and saw the eldest young lady standing at the door. He asked in surprise, "Madam, why are you back?"

Chun Xin frowned and said unhappily: "You bastard, this is the eldest young lady's in-laws' house. Can't the eldest young lady come back? Open the door and let us in!"

The doorman didn't dare say anything and had to open the door and let the person in.

After Lin Shuwan entered the room, he took his men and went back to Tingfeng Garden first.

Tingfengyuan remained the same as when she left. When Liu Ma and others saw Lin Shuwan coming back, a look of panic flashed across their faces.

Lin Shuwan frowned slightly. Could something have happened during the time she was away?

Madam Liu came forward and asked, "Miss, you're back so soon? Didn't you say you would fast and pray for a month?"

"Your Majesty has come to Fajue Temple to practice. I came back early because I was afraid of disturbing the emperor." Lin Shuwan said, "Did something happen in the mansion? Why does Madam look so flustered?"

Chapter 36

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Nanny Liu looked embarrassed.

Chunyu said angrily: "Some time ago, the Marquis was not at home, and the Madam and the eldest young master were tortured by illness and could not get out of bed. It was rumored that Concubine Qing was pregnant, so the Madam let Concubine Qing take over the job.

Aunt Qing used chicken feathers as a token of authority, and she called a group of servants and guards to open the young lady's dowry storehouse. Aunt Liu and I led people to stop them, and Aunt Qing held a grudge against us.

Not only did she deliberately withhold the food of the servants in our courtyard, she also always found faults to make us help her. If she was not happy, she would deliberately punish us. The servants in our courtyard have been upset these days. Madam Liu even knelt several times, and the bruises on her knees are still there. "

"How can this be possible!" Lin Shuwan slammed the table and stood up. "She is just a concubine, how dare she be so arrogant! Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you."

Lin Shuwan turned to Madam Liu and the other two maids and said, "You guys go down and have a good rest first. As for food, don't worry, I will find a way to solve it."

"Yes." Madam Liu, Chunyu and Chunliu hurriedly thanked them.

Madam Liu stepped forward and said, "Miss, I heard that Concubine Qing has a personal relationship with the Prince of Jin's Mansion, and she specifically introduced Jing'an Marquis to the Prince of Jin. Madam has received many invitations to banquets from officials. Madam's complexion has improved a lot in the past two days, so she took Concubine Qing to attend the banquet."

"Your Majesty has no children, and there have been many rumors recently that Your Majesty is going to start selecting candidates for the Crown Prince. The Prince of Jin's Mansion has a great chance of winning. Now Qing Yi is pregnant, and she is with the Prince of Jin! It's okay for us servants to suffer a little, but now Qing Yi can say a few words in front of the Marquis. If you go against her, I'm afraid you will suffer!"

Lin Shuwan never expected that after she had been away for a few days, the Marquis of Jing'an would know that she was seeking death!

very good!

Lin Shuwan said, "I know what's going on. Ma'am, you should go back to your room and have a good rest."

Nanny Liu had no choice but to take the two maids back to their room to rest.

After they had spoken for a few words, Nanny Su came with two maids with unfriendly faces.

Nanny Su said expressionlessly, "Madam, the Madam invites you!"

Lin Shuwan smiled gently and said, "Madam, please wait a moment while I change my clothes and go to meet my mother-in-law. Is that ok?"

Nanny Su snorted coldly, "Madam, you'd better go there as soon as possible. It's not even a month yet and you've returned home without permission. Madam is very angry. I'm afraid if you go too late, Madam will probably make things difficult for Madam. Please don't make things difficult for us servants!"

Lin Shuwan lowered his head and rolled his eyes.

"In that case, I will go, but time is tight and I haven't been able to wash up properly to meet my mother-in-law. I hope that Nanny Su can say a few good words for me later."

"Young Madam, you are too kind."

Lin Shuwan followed Nanny Su out of the room, and even the maid was not allowed to take her with her.

A few people left Tingfeng Garden and passed by the road that was necessary for Qinxue Pavilion and Luohua Courtyard. Qingluan was wearing a pink brocade dress embroidered with flowers, a gold hairpin with pearls on her head, and waving a round fan painted with peonies, walking gracefully on the road.

Her face was filled with confidence and pride, as if she was the center of the world.

Behind her followed a group of maids, who carefully held various precious gifts, which were gifts given to her by the Marquis's wife and the Marquis.

Just as Qingluan was about to enter Luohua Courtyard, she saw Nanny Su and Lin Shuwan walking towards her with a hostile look on her face. Thinking of what she had just heard in Langyue Garden, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Qingluan held a round fan in one hand and touched her belly with the other. She did not bow to Lin Shuwan, but said arrogantly and complacently, "Hey, sister, why are you here? Didn't you go to Fajue Temple to fast and pray a few days ago? It's not even January yet, why are you back home?"

"But it's good that you're back, sister. I'm just pregnant and it's not easy to overwork. Madam told me to take good care of the baby. But the eldest young master can't leave without someone, so I may need to trouble you to take care of him."

Lin Shuwan stopped and looked at Qingluan, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It turned out to be Sister Qingluan, congratulations on your pregnancy. Since you are not in good health, leave the care of the young master to me. But on the day of your marriage, I didn't drink the tea you offered me, but now you are pregnant, let's stop it now."

Qingluan's face changed slightly. She didn't expect Lin Shuwan to say that. "Sister is really generous. I won't be polite then."

Lin Shuwan smiled and nodded, then continued to follow Nanny Su forward.

Looking at Lin Shuwan's receding back, Qingluan's eyes flashed with resentment, "Lin Shuwan, just wait and see, I won't let you have it easy!"

Nanny Su quickly brought them to Langyue Garden.

Nanny Su went in first to report.

The Jing'an Marquis Mansion has been in the limelight recently, especially the Marquis's wife. After getting rid of the trouble of the nightmare talisman, she now has a rosy complexion, radiant, and looks majestic and solemn.

The Marquis's wife gently put down the teacup in her hand, stared sharply ahead, and said sternly: "Let her kneel in the yard. No one is allowed to let her get up without my permission!"

"Yes." Nanny Su replied respectfully, then turned and walked out of the room.

A moment later, two sturdy old women followed her to Lin Shuwan, unceremoniously took her to the center of the yard, and forced her to kneel down.

Nanny Su stood beside Lin Shuwan, looking down at her with a cold light in her eyes, and said coldly: "Madam Hou has ordered that the young lady should kneel down and not stand up without permission! I hope the young lady will not cause trouble to us servants!"

Lin Shuwan knew that resistance was futile, so he could only obey helplessly and kneel on the ground obediently.

At this moment, a loud thunder suddenly sounded in the already gloomy sky, deafening.

Soon after, dark clouds gathered and strong winds blew past, bringing with them the chill of late autumn.

The raindrops as big as beans poured down, making crackling sounds when they hit the ground.

Lin Shuwan knelt on the cold ground, the rain quickly soaking her clothes. She gritted her teeth and silently endured the torture of cold and hunger.

As time went by, Lin Shuwan's body began to tremble slightly, and his lips turned pale due to the cold. Lin Shuwan's body was soaked by the rain, and his wet hair stuck to his cheeks, making him look particularly embarrassed.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps at the door.

Lin Shuwan raised her head and saw a tall figure walking in. It was her father-in-law, Marquis Jing'an.

Marquis Jing'an has been very proud of himself recently, having gotten close to Prince Jin. Now, all the officials in Kyoto are giving him some face. All the humiliation he suffered some time ago was swept away, and he took revenge on those people severely.

He was drunk, his whole face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he was supported by a servant and came in, staggering a little.

As soon as he walked to the corridor, Marquis Jing'an saw a woman who was soaked to the skin, with her clothes clinging to her body, kneeling in the yard. Her pretty little face, the size of a palm, was full of fragility and paleness.

**********

Chapter 37

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

The woman was wearing plain clothes, which were simple and unadorned, but it made her figure more graceful and eye-catching. Her skin, which had just been wet by the rain, looked particularly white, as delicate and smooth as mutton-fat jade.

At this moment, she was shivering slightly in the cold wind and rain. Her pitiful and miserable appearance made people feel pity.

Perhaps she heard the noise over here, the woman slowly turned her head, and when her big watery eyes saw him, Marquis Jing'an was stunned for a moment.

Lin Shuwan lowered her head hastily and called softly, "Your daughter-in-law greets the Marquis. May the Marquis be well and safe."

The girl's soft and gentle voice was like an arrow with a hook, shooting straight into Jing'an Hou's heartstrings. He couldn't help but tremble all over, his eyes became hot and direct, wandering over her body without any concealment. Finally, his eyes stopped on the girl's plump breasts.

Daughter-in-law?

Marquis Jing'an's confused mind became even more bewildered. Does he have a daughter-in-law?

Oh, that useless son of his who was paralyzed in bed seemed to have got married not long ago. I heard from the servants that the useless son hasn't consummated the marriage with the main wife yet.

It's such a pity that such a pretty and charming beauty has never had sex and has to stay alone in her empty room from now on!

Marquis Jing'an stared at Lin Shuwan intently, then a dissolute smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He waved away the servant's supporting hand and staggered towards Lin Shuwan.

The rain was still falling, and soon Marquis Jing'an was soaked through. The cold rain made his confused mind clearer and made the fire in his heart burn even more vigorously.

This woman is so beautiful that she makes him almost burn with desire!

Jing'an Hou walked to Lin Shuwan with difficulty and stood in front of her, looking down at the beautiful girl kneeling in front of him. Her slender neck and fair and translucent skin exuded a fatal temptation, as if tempting him to sink step by step.

Marquis Jing'an reached out, pinched Lin Shuwan's chin, and forced her to raise her head.

Lin Shuwan was so frightened that he couldn't help but step back, but Marquis Jing'an held down his shoulders and he couldn't move.

Marquis Jing'an stroked the soft and delicate skin and couldn't help but sigh: "This face is even more beautiful when you look at it up close. It's such a waste of talent to leave it in that useless man's backyard!"

Lin Shuwan's pupils trembled, and she struggled to move back, refusing repeatedly: "Father-in-law, it is unreasonable for you to do this, please let go of your daughter-in-law..."

The secret guards in the dark looked at each other, and one of them quickly flew out and headed quickly towards the outside of the city.

Your Majesty is also returning to the city today, and he should be almost in the capital by now!

The other people looked at the scene in the yard anxiously, not knowing whether they should take action.

His Majesty asked them to protect Miss Lin well!

Marquis Jing'an grabbed Lin Shuwan's wrist tightly and pulled hard, pulling Lin Shuwan up from the ground.

Lin Shuwan had been kneeling in the rain for an hour. His body was already weak and his legs were soft. As soon as he stood up, he lost his balance and fell into the arms of Marquis Jing'an.

A strong smell of alcohol, powder, and the unique masculine odor instantly rushed into Lin Shuwan's nose, making her feel nauseous and almost vomiting.

Oh shit!

She secretly groaned in her heart, the price she paid this time was really not small!

At this moment, the Marquis's wife slowly walked out of the room and saw Lin Shuwan falling into the arms of Marquis Jing'an. Her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief. Then, raging rage burned in her eyes and unspeakable jealousy and hatred surged in her heart.

Madam Hou shouted angrily: "What are you doing?!"

Marquis Jing'an was startled by his wife's roar and sobered up instantly.

"Madam, why did you come out?" When Marquis Jing'an saw that it was his wife, he did not let go of Lin Shuwan's wrist, but put his arm around Lin Shuwan's waist, his tone very cold.

"Why don't you let go! You damned vixen, you actually dared to seduce your father-in-law in front of me. Do you think that your husband is dead? You shameless bitch..."

The marquis' wife pointed at Lin Shuwan and started cursing. Regardless of the rain, she ran over and reached out to pull Lin Shuwan out of Marquis Jing'an's arms.

"Father-in-law, please let me go, I am your daughter-in-law!"

Lin Shuwan had recovered by now. She took out an embroidery needle that had been put away for a long time from her sleeve and stabbed it hard into Marquis Jing'an's arm.

Marquis Jing'an's hand loosened immediately due to the pain. Lin Shuwan took the opportunity to step hard on the instep of his foot, turned his body, and retreated from Marquis Jing'an's arms.

Jing'an Hou was immediately annoyed, especially when he saw his wife rushing up with a ferocious look on her face. He raised his hand and slapped her hard, saying angrily, "Get lost!"

Lin Shuwan looked at the two people quarreling and quickly turned around and ran towards Tingfeng Garden.

The Marquis' wife didn't expect to be beaten, and she fell to the ground carelessly. She covered her face, her eyes full of disbelief and anger, staring straight at Marquis Jing'an, and shouted:

"You shameless thing, you actually have improper thoughts about the woman in your son's room. Are you crazy? If this matter gets out, how can we in Jing'an Marquis Mansion face the public? How can your son face the public in the future!"

However, Marquis Jing'an ignored her questioning. His eyes followed Lin Shuwan's departing back, and he felt more and more annoyed.

He suddenly raised his leg and kicked the Marquis who was sitting on the ground, roaring: "Don't worry about my affairs! What daughter-in-law? As long as I like her, who can do anything to me?"

The Marquis' wife groaned when she was kicked, but she did not flinch. Instead, she glared back at Marquis Jing'an with even more anger, gritting her teeth and saying:

"Okay, you don't care about the reputation of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, but I do! I can't let you keep messing around like this, otherwise the whole family will be ruined by you!"

As she spoke, she struggled to stand up, ready to find Lin Shuwan to stop this farce from going any further.

She wants to kill this damn vixen to protect the reputation of Yuan'er and the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion!

Marquis Jing'an hadn't gotten the beauty yet, so he naturally didn't want his wife to cause trouble. He grabbed his wife's wrist and slapped her again, angrily saying with a fierce look on his face: "If you keep making trouble, I'll divorce you!"

Mrs. Hou was filled with grief and indignation, and her tears could not stop flowing. At this moment, she hated Lin Shuwan so much that she wanted to cut him into pieces.

Jing'an Hou was unmoved. He said viciously, "If you dare to ruin my good deeds, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying that, he shook off Madam Hou's hand and chased in the direction where Lin Shuwan left.

Lin Shuwan's knees were still hurting so badly that she couldn't run very fast. She also wanted to keep Marquis Jing'an in suspense as she had the most important scene to perform.

Marquis Jing'an quickly caught up with the man and grabbed Lin Shuwan's wrist.

***********

Chapter 38

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

"My dear daughter-in-law, why are you walking so fast without waiting for me!" Marquis Jing'an said with a lewd look on his face, while pulling Lin Shuwan's wrist and leading her to his yard.

"No! Let me go!" Lin Shuwan struggled violently, trying to break free from the Jing'an Marquis's grip on her wrist. However, she was unable to resist the other party's strength at all.

Lin Shuwan had just run out of the territory of Langyue Garden and was not far from the courtyard where Marquis Jing'an lived, so it didn't take Marquis Jing'an too much time to pull Lin Shuwan over.

Because of the rain, there were few servants passing by on the road. However, one or two servants would occasionally be met in the corridor. They would stare with wide eyes in disbelief as the Marquis pulled the crying Lin Shuwan into his own yard.

Many servants immediately realized that Marquis Jing'an was trying to have an affair!

At this time, the servants who were watching were all stunned.

They watched helplessly as Lin Shuwan was dragged into Marquis Jing'an's yard, and then the gate was slammed shut.

Seeing this, some servants hurriedly ran to their respective masters' courtyards and quickly spread this shocking incident throughout the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

When the Marquis heard the news, her eyes were filled with anger and jealousy. Her eyes turned red, as if they were about to spit fire. She wanted to rush to the Marquis of Jing'an's yard and kill the hateful couple, but reason told her that it was not the right time yet.

So, the Marquis's wife took a deep breath, tried to calm her excitement, and then fiercely ordered Su Ma Ma beside her: "Spread my words immediately, poison and mute all the servants you see on the road and sell them. At the same time, warn everyone in the mansion that anyone who dares to talk about the Marquis will be killed without mercy!"

When Nanny Su heard this, she was shocked, but she still nodded respectfully and said, "I understand. I'll do it right away." After that, she turned around and hurried away to carry out the Marquis's order.

The marquis's wife sat on the chair, biting her lips tightly, her hands tightly grasping the corners of her clothes, her body trembling slightly, and she was obviously extremely angry.

She cursed Lin Shuwan in her heart, gritting her teeth and saying, "Bitch, you dare to seduce the Marquis, I will never let you go!"

After a while, Nanny Su came back to report that the servants had been dealt with and warned others not to talk too much.

The Marquis's wife nodded to show her satisfaction, and then asked Nanny Su to continue sending people to keep an eye on Lin Shuwan and Marquis Jing'an, and report their movements at any time.

Mrs. Hou sat dejectedly in the chair, thinking constantly in her mind that she must find a suitable opportunity to get rid of Lin Shuwan completely to prevent future troubles.

Luohuayuan and Qinxuege also learned the news.

Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan's originally sinister face became even gloomier. He no longer looked like the gentle young man from a noble family as before. Now he was just a useless person who ate, drank, defecated and urinated in bed.

Even his own woman despises him, yet he shamelessly climbs into his father's bed!

Damn bitch!

Chen Siyuan pounded the bed with his arms, his eyes full of viciousness. He wanted to kill that bitch Lin Shuwan!

Fallen Flower Courtyard.

"What did you say!?"

When Qingluan heard that the young lady was actually dragged into Guangyaoyuan (the marquis's courtyard) by the marquis, her eyes widened. Then she thought of something and laughed.

"Hahahaha!"

"She deserves it! If she had stayed in Fajue Temple and not come back, she wouldn't have been favored by the Marquis on the first day she came back! If the news gets out that the Marquis of Jing'an is having an affair with his own daughter-in-law, Lin Shuwan will have no choice but to be hanged, and the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion will lose face. Even the General's mansion will probably be criticized!"

"Hahaha, that's great! God is helping me!" Qingluan said, reaching out to touch her belly, a strange and cold light flashing in her eyes.

Once Lin Shuwan dies, she might still have a chance to become the eldest young master's wife. With the support of Prince Jin, she can help the master regain the throne of the crown prince in the future. In the future, she will be the crown prince's consort!

...

Three kilometers outside the capital.

The sudden heavy rain delayed Qin Zhao and others' return to Beijing.

Qin Zhao was sitting in the carriage, quietly closing his eyes, listening to the sound of raindrops outside, and couldn't help wondering what Lin Shuwan was doing at the moment.

Suddenly, a sharp sound of horse hooves was heard in the forest, which immediately alerted the guards surrounding Qin Zhao, and they all looked at the source of the sound.

Soon, a secret guard dressed in black appeared in everyone's sight riding a horse quickly.

"Your Majesty! Something happened to Miss Lin!" The secret guard was delighted, fortunately His Majesty was not far from the capital.

Qin Zhao's eyes, which were originally pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened. He lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the person who came with a cold expression, and asked, "What happened?"

The secret guard flew down and quickly came to Qin Zhao's side, whispering a few words in Qin Zhao's ear.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhao's face suddenly darkened, with a tremendous rage boiling in his heart. He leaped onto the horse ridden by the secret guard, quickly turned the horse around, cracked the whip hard, and galloped towards the capital.

Upon seeing this, the secret guard said to Liu Youxi, "Eunuch Liu, this has happened suddenly. His Majesty has to return to the capital first, and you will follow behind!" After saying that, he also rode a horse and followed.

The cold rain kept hitting Qin Zhao's face, and soon all his clothes were wet.

He was anxious and angry, and he wished he could appear in front of Lin Shuwan and save him.

About that damn Marquis Jing'an!

Cen Qi's efficiency has been too low recently. Why is he still letting this damn bastard live!

Qin Zhao's eyes were as black as ink, and a strong murderous aura emanated from his body.

The secret guards following behind him were all frightened. They had not felt such rage and murderous intent from His Majesty for a long time.

When Qin Zhao arrived at the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, the rain had stopped.

Qin Zhao became more and more anxious, but he couldn't go in directly from the front at this time, as this would waste more time.

With the guidance of the secret guards, Qin Zhao quickly found the place.

He jumped into Marquis Jing'an's yard and saw the open door.

Marquis Jing'an had been tied up, and the woman he had been thinking about all the way was lying on the couch with a pale face, wearing a cloak.

She was soaked all over, her hair was messy and wet, sticking tightly to her cheeks. There were obvious slap marks on both sides of her cheeks, and blood was flowing from the corners of her mouth. She looked extremely miserable.

Qin Zhao paused, then walked over very quickly. His steps were a little messy and he almost tripped over himself.

He half-knelt on the side of the couch, reached out and gently stroked her cheek, his eyes full of fear and pity, his inky eyes flashed with cold light, shooting towards Jing'an Hou who was kneeling on the ground,

Marquis Jing'an looked at the man who came in from outside the door, his pupils dilated, and his face was full of shock and disbelief. He wanted to say something, but with a leather strap stuffed in his mouth, he couldn't utter a word.

Why is Your Majesty here?

************

Chapter 39

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

"Castrate him and throw him into the water dungeon. Pass on my order and have the Imperial Guards surround the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my order. Don't let even a fly out!"

Following Qin Zhao's order, the secret guard stepped forward with a long knife in his hand, raised the knife and cut it directly, and the blood immediately dyed the blade and the floor red.

Marquis Jing'an let out a muffled groan from his blocked mouth, and felt a sharp pain in his lower limbs, so painful that he almost cried out, but the cloth stuffed in his mouth made him only make "wuwu" sounds.

He opened his eyes wide in pain, his eyeballs almost popped out, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper, completely bloodless. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, soaking his clothes.

Suddenly, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground, losing consciousness.

Qin Zhao reached out and gently picked up Lin Shuwan from the couch, carefully placing her face against his chest.

The cape slipped down, revealing the torn clothes, the peach pink dress was only tied dangerously by a strap, and there were still the ambiguous traces he had left on it.

Qin Zhao's eyes were deep. Seeing this scene, he could imagine more than what happened at that time.

He looked at Lin Shuwan in his arms with heartache. Her face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were tightly closed, as if she was still immersed in fear. He gently stroked her hair, hoping to give her some comfort.

How scared would she be in the evening?

But he was not with her.

The secret guards sent to protect her were also useless. They failed to protect her well!

Qin Zhao held Lin Shuwan in one hand, feeling that the person in his arms was so light. With his other hand, he lifted up the cloak that had slipped down, wrapped up Lin Shuwan and his head, then stood up and left.

Lin Shuwan felt Qin Zhao's warmth, rubbed his head against his neck, and the corners of his mouth hidden under his cloak raised slightly.

Bao Jieer couldn't help but praise: [Tsk tsk tsk, Qin Zhao's guilt and heartache towards you are almost beyond the limit now, it's amazing! This play is amazing to me. ]

Lin Shuwan knew it, scratched his head shyly, and said: [Sister Bao is still a good teacher! ]

Qin Zhao carried Lin Shuwan out of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion. His carriage had been parked at the back door for a long time and there was no one around.

Qin Zhao carried Lin Shu in his arms and got on the carriage, heading straight for the palace.

Not long after Qin Zhao and others left, the Imperial Guards arrived with a large number of troops and surrounded the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion. They confined everyone to their respective courtyards and prohibited them from talking or moving.

When the marquis' wife saw the imperial guards rushing in, her face turned pale with fright.

The Royal Guards take orders directly from His Majesty!

The marquis's wife wanted to send someone to call Marquis Jing'an, but was told that he had been taken away.

The Marquis' wife's mind suddenly went blank, and she didn't quite understand what the other party meant. The Marquis had taken Lin Shuwan to his own courtyard at that time, and now the Marquis was taken away by His Majesty's order, so... what about Lin Shuwan?

Where did she go?

Li Xiaohu, the commander of the Imperial Guards, had a resolute face and was very indifferent. He said neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Madam, please don't make things difficult for us. Please stay in the yard. Otherwise, we will be ordered to execute you on the spot."

Upon hearing the words "execute on the spot", everyone present turned pale, shut their mouths, stayed still, and did not dare to ask any more questions.

Li Xiaohu looked at the group of people and saw that they had finally behaved themselves. He snorted coldly, then turned around and left with a knife.

The news of Jing'an Marquis's speech soon spread throughout the capital. The originally peaceful atmosphere became tense because of Qin Zhao's sudden siege of the mansion.

All the officials and noble families who had been on good terms with Marquis Jing'an before couldn't help but be shocked. Could it be that Marquis Jing'an's Mansion had done something to make His Majesty so angry!

The Prince of Jin, who was hooked up by Marquis Jing'an, was also frightened at this time. He dared not contact officials from all parties openly and began to refuse visitors behind closed doors.

Moon Tower.

Prime Minister Xiao sat opposite King Kang, with a pot of wine and some side dishes on the table.

Prince Kang had a triumphant smile on his face and said, "Yesterday's assassination was too frivolous. It didn't hurt Your Majesty at all, and it even made Your Majesty suspicious. The capture of Marquis Jing'an was also within our expectations! And they even threw the dirty water on Prince Jin."

Prime Minister Xiao raised the wine glass, clinked glasses with King Kang, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "Your Majesty, don't underestimate the enemy. It is still unknown whether what Your Majesty did today is to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys and warn us. Now that Your Majesty has firmly sat on the throne, you can't rush to get any position you want, you need to take your time!"

Prime Minister Xiao looked at the unconcealed pride on Prince Kang's face and couldn't help but shake his head secretly. It turned out that the collateral relatives of the Dazhao Dynasty were no match for the orthodox ones, and now each generation is weaker than the previous one.

Prime Minister Xiao looked at the young man in black who had a cold face and didn't say a word.

This young man was extremely handsome, with picturesque eyebrows and sharp eyebrows. Although he was still young, his handsome face already revealed a mature temperament.

His eyes were full of depth and wisdom, and his gaze was sharp, like two sharp swords. No matter who looked into his eyes, they would feel an invisible pressure and would not dare to look down on him easily.

Prime Minister Xiao asked, "My Lord, what do you think about the Imperial Guards surrounding the palace?"

This is King Kang's legitimate son, Qin Ce, who is eighteen years old this year. He is handsome, has an outstanding temperament, and behaves in a decent and generous manner. He is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is neither overly ostentatious nor timid.

If he could become his son-in-law, Prime Minister Xiao would be extremely satisfied.

Qin Ce said calmly, "Before the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion was sealed, my spy planted in the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion sent a message saying that the Jing'an Marquis had taken a fancy to his daughter-in-law and brought her to his courtyard."

Not long after, the Imperial Guards surrounded the Marquis Jing'an's Mansion.

Upon hearing this, the other two people frowned.

Prince Kang said with disdain: "This Marquis Jing'an is so corrupt that he even dares to touch his own son's wife!"

Prime Minister Xiao slowly pondered over these words, then his eyes widened, he looked at Qin Ce in disbelief, and said, "What the prince means is..."

Qin Ce picked up the wine glass and said in an even more indifferent tone: "The details are still unknown, so don't make any rash comments!"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Xiao fell silent.

The atmosphere in the box was a little stagnant for a moment.

After a long while, Prime Minister Xiao changed the subject and asked, "How is the prince getting along with my daughter these days?"

Qin Ce raised his eyes to meet Prime Minister Xiao's gaze, and said in a light tone: "Your daughter is well-educated, gentle and virtuous, talented and beautiful, and is the best candidate for my wife!"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Xiao smiled and said, "It is my daughter's blessing that the prince likes me."

Although this boy is young, he has already shown a maturity and stability beyond his age. His imposing manner is so compelling that no one can underestimate him.

It is still unknown who will win the fight.

Regardless of whether Your Majesty wants to snatch my wife, there are not many women who have been touched by Your Majesty, but how many of them survived?

Qin Ce lowered his eyes slightly, covering up all the dim light, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Chapter 40

After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Qin Zhao hurriedly carried Lin Shuwan into his own bedroom, the Purple Palace, and said, "Liu Youxi, call a few maids over, and invite the imperial physician over!"

Qin Zhao carried Lin Shuwan to the bathing pool at the back. At this time, Lin Shuwan's cheeks were red, his lips were bloodshot, his body was trembling slightly, and he kept muttering, "It's so cold, so cold!"

Qin Zhao reached out and touched her forehead, which was burning hot.

He was extremely anxious.

Not long after the two entered the bath, Liu Youxi came in with four palace maids.

"See Your Majesty!"

Qin Zhao waved his hand and said, "Stand up, the four of you go in and help the young lady bathe and change her clothes. She is ill and cannot stay for too long."

"Yes, we will obey your command." The four palace maids responded quickly, stood up and helped Lin Shuwan take off her clothes and get into the bath.

Four palace maids also helped Lin Shuwan clean up and change into dry clothes.

Qin Zhao carried Lin Shuwan back to the inner hall, put her on her bed, and said to the four astonished maids, "Dry your hair."

"Yes." Two of the palace maids immediately stepped forward and wrung Lin Shuwan's hair dry.

After a while, Liu Youxi came over with several imperial doctors.

Qin Zhao's body was also wet. He went into the bathroom, washed himself hastily, changed into dry clothes, and when he came out he saw Liu Youxi and the imperial doctors waiting there.

Qin Zhao ordered: "Go and show her."

"Yes."

The imperial doctors came forward to feel the patient's pulse and examine him.

This is the woman that Your Majesty has cared so much about over the years!

Their Imperial Hospital hasn't been out for a long time. His Majesty is in good health and rarely catches colds. The women in the harem no longer fight with each other, so when he occasionally catches a cold, the female doctors under them are sent to treat him.

It has been a long time since they have come to His Majesty's bedroom in such a group.

After a while, the imperial doctors discussed with each other and sent a representative to the front and said, "Your Majesty, after our diagnosis, this girl was infected with a cold due to the evil wind entering her body. She needs to take the medicine prescribed by me and sweat a little, and she will be fine."

Qin Zhao felt relieved and said to Liu Youxi, "Well, go get the prescription! Send the medicine over as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." After receiving the order, Liu Youxi withdrew with the imperial physician.

Qin Zhao sat on the bedside, looking at Lin Shuwan's slightly frowned brows, feeling distressed. He reached out his hand, gently smoothed her brows, and whispered, "Get well soon."

Not long after, Liu Youxi brought the boiled medicine in. Qin Zhao took the medicine bowl, blew it carefully to cool it, and then fed it to Lin Shuwan.

After drinking the medicine, Lin Shuwan's complexion looked better.

Qin Zhao saw that Lin Shuwan's breathing gradually stabilized and his face regained some color, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He gently stroked Lin Shuwan's cheek and said to himself: "You really made me worry to death."

Afterwards, he dismissed all the palace maids, took off his outer shirt, opened the quilt, lay down in it, reached out his hands, and hugged Lin Shuwan in his arms.

Qin Zhao reached out and gently stroked her cheek, his eyes never leaving her face, his heart aching and bitter. Tomorrow would be the third day...

Will this cold weather take her away?

Suddenly, the person in my arms whimpered in fear and terror: "No! Don't come over here!"

"Ah! Let me go, no!"

Lin Shuwan's brows were furrowed, his forehead was covered with sweat, his body was trembling slightly, he bit his lips hard, and tears kept rolling down from the corners of his tightly closed eyes, as if he had encountered something terrible.

Qin Zhao was so distressed that he hugged her tighter. He lowered his head and kissed her lips and cheeks, and gently comforted her while kissing her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

"Be good, Wan'er, I'm here, don't be afraid!"

Qin Zhao tried to comfort him gently, but in his heart he wanted to cut Marquis Jing'an into pieces. What a damned bastard, how dare he covet his people!

Looking at Qin Zhao's tender face, Bao Jie'er commented: [Women are full of tears, the performance will break your heart~]

Time passed minute by minute, and Qin Zhao fell asleep unknowingly.

In the middle of the night, Lin Shuwan made another fuss and broke out in a sweat. Both of their clothes were soaked with sweat.

However, Lin Shuwan's fever had not subsided.

Qin Zhao hurriedly shouted to the outside world: "Liu Youxi, go and call the imperial physician!" After that, he took out a new set of clean pajamas, changed them for Lin Shuwan, stuffed the person back into the quilt, and then changed his own clothes.

After a while, the imperial physician came again.

After several people finished the consultation.

The head of the Imperial Hospital said solemnly, "The girl has been weak since she was young, and is easily attacked by diseases. This time the cold came with great force, and she was severely frightened at the same time, which caused her to be restless, and her qi and blood circulation were not smooth, and her condition became more serious."

"I will prescribe a new prescription for you to drink. After you start sweating, change into dry clothes immediately. You can't catch a cold again."

"Go as soon as possible!" Qin Zhao ordered.

He was extremely panicked. Tomorrow would be the third day. He was afraid that it was the power of the curse that would cause Lin Shuwan to die from this minor cold.

Liu Youxi naturally knew how anxious His Majesty was. He was also anxious for His Majesty and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Miss Lin would get better soon!

Your Majesty has never been attracted to a woman. If Miss Lin really... Your Majesty's heart would be so broken!

The Imperial Hospital brought new medicine.

Lin Shuwan pursed his lips tightly, so the medicine couldn't be fed into him.

Qin Zhao had no choice but to feed the medicine himself, allowing Lin Shuwan to experience the famous scene in the novel where the hero feeds medicine to the heroine.

Lin Shuwan said that the experience was very satisfying!

After finishing the bowl of medicine, Qin Zhao asked everyone to wait in the outer hall. He lay back on the bed and hugged Lin Shuwan tightly in his arms. There was only one thought in his mind, that she was safe!

Qin Zhao stayed up all night. After Lin Shuwan started sweating, he changed her clothes in time and checked her temperature from time to time. He repeated this process over and over again until dawn, when Qin Zhao finally fell into a light sleep.

On this day, His Majesty adjourned the court. The court officials wanted to ask about the affairs of the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, but Liu Youxi sent them all away

When Qin Zhao opened his eyes again, he found that Lin Shuwan was looking at him with her eyes wide open. Her bright eyes were clear and filled with his reflection.

The sweet scent on her body dispelled a lot of the smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the room.

"Are you awake? How do you feel? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Qin Zhao's face lit up and he asked with concern.

Lin Shuwan shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm much better, thank you, Your Majesty." Her face was still a little pale and she looked very weak.

"That's good." Even so, Qin Zhao was relieved to see her wake up. He lowered his head and rubbed her still hot forehead, and whispered, "She still has a slight fever."

"Your Majesty, yesterday...I seemed to hear your voice."

"You said, Wan'er, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Lin Shuwan looked at him seriously and nervously. Her beautiful eyes were full of helplessness and nervousness. She pursed her lips and said, "So, you saved me?"
