Chapter 152 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace 4
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

A man in bright yellow clothes sat on the dragon throne, handling memorials in his hands.

A woman in light green palace maid's attire stood aside, grinding ink for the man leisurely, and occasionally stole a glance at him.

The atmosphere between the two was so quiet and peaceful that people were reluctant to disturb them.

After the emperor finished dealing with the memorials in his hand, he looked up at the woman who was grinding ink for him. He saw her plain face without any makeup, as elegant as a small half-opened gardenia in the wind.

She had beautiful jet-black hair tied up with a simple hairpin, and was dressed in a light green palace maid's dress without any embroidery or decoration. But even with such plainness, it made her skin look even fairer and her face more radiant, as quiet as a pool of clear water, making her look more graceful and beautiful.

She lowered her head and eyes as she concentrated on grinding ink for him. Her movements were delicate and patient, revealing her fair and slender neck, which was so tender and juicy.

As he looked, the emperor's eyes became hotter.

This little palace maid had been with him for more than two months, but every time he wanted to take her as a concubine, the little palace maid would refuse very tactfully, looking at him with her beautiful watery eyes, then hugging her arms with tears in her eyes, saying that she wanted to be closer to him, and that if she was made a concubine, she would not see him often.

The emperor liked the feeling of this little palace maid relying on him very much, and he was very happy. Since she was reluctant to leave him, he was not so anxious to give her a position.

Moreover, with this little palace maid by his side, he had extra energy every day and was much more efficient in handling government affairs.

This little palace maid has pretty good cooking skills. Whether she’s making tea, pastries, or a few dishes, not only are they delicious, but they’re also unique, with flavors that no one else can make.

As if she felt his burning gaze, the woman's face slowly turned slightly red, and the blush was particularly obvious on her skin that was as white as snow.

The light red started from the white earlobe, spread to the neck, and then disappeared into the collar.

The emperor's eyes were deep, and he pulled the woman who was grinding into his arms, causing the woman to exclaim tenderly, "Your Majesty."

The emperor held the little palace maid's soft body in his arms and smelled her unique fragrance, as if all the fatigue of the day had disappeared.

With the soft and fragrant jade in his arms, he narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Ling Xi's face flushed red, her fingers circling the emperor's chest, she lay softly in the emperor's arms, raised her head tremblingly, then saw the emperor looking at her, and lowered her head shyly again.

The emperor laughed softly, stroked her graceful back with his palm, pinched her chin with his other hand, and lifted her face up.

"Why are you shy? I won't eat you."

Ling Xi put her hand on his chest and said shyly: "Your Majesty, this is the Yangxin Palace, this is not good, please..."

She stuttered as she spoke, her face getting redder and redder, her white and tender earlobes were as red as if they were congested, but this made the emperor's eyes even deeper.

Lust gradually filled the emperor's heart. He felt his heart burning and his body getting hotter and hotter. At this moment, he just wanted to hold this little palace maid in his arms and rub her into his body.

He hugged Ling Xi in his arms and walked towards the back of the Hall of Mental Cultivation with big strides.

After arriving at the inner room, Ling Xi followed the maid to bathe in the hot spring.

She knew that today was the last step.

She had been refusing for two months. If she refused again, the emperor would definitely be unhappy.

The tactic of playing hard to get should be used in moderation. Excessive use is not good.

If used well, it is called interest; if used poorly, it is called lack of tact.

Oh, it’s really hard for her. It’s really tiring to act all day. It’s really a difficult task for her.

When Ling Xi came back, the emperor had already taken a bath and was wearing bright yellow pajamas, sitting in front of the bed reading a book.

Ling Xi, wearing soft and thin pajamas, walked to the bed with some trepidation. As she approached, the emperor also smelled the delicate fragrance on her body.

The emperor looked up at her, his eyes flashing with surprise. Her face was flushed by the steam, and her fair skin was glowing with a slight pink luster, as if it could be blown away, delicate and fair without a single flaw. As her eyes moved, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, with a hint of charm.

Although the pajamas are slightly loose, they are extremely thin and can actually highlight the figure.

The emperor looked at her with deep eyes, dazzled. Her fair skin shone like pearls under the light, making his breathing gradually quicken.

The emperor reached out and hugged Ling Xi. His large hands held her slender waist in his hands. Feeling her exquisite figure pressed tightly against his body, he gently kissed her white jade-like cheek.

Feeling the woman's body tremble slightly, the emperor laughed softly in satisfaction.

(Ling Xi's inner thoughts: She has to pretend to tremble, how hard it is.)
As the bed curtains slid down, the two figures gradually became one, and only in their interweaving and undulating shapes could one tell they were two figures.

Outside the house, the chief eunuch Li Yu and his young apprentice Jinzhong were guarding the door.

There was also a group of palace maids, their faces flushed as they listened to the noise in the room.

When Li Yu heard the noise in the house, he wished he could find something to plug his ears, or make himself deaf.

In comparison, Jinzhong is much calmer.

However, the complex emotions in his eyes made it unclear whether he was happy or disappointed.

However, he was still happy that the person he chose was valued by the emperor.

Only in this way can you continue to climb up and reach the supreme position.

The next day, the emperor had already gone to court, and Ling Xi got up from the bed with back pain.

I don’t know if this dog emperor was on drugs or something, but he was like crazy last night, tossing her over and over.

She sat up carefully and drew aside the bed curtain, only to see an unexpected person.

"Chunchan, why are you here?"

During the two months that he worked in the Yangxin Palace, Ling Xi went to the Sizhiku to see Chunchan many times and also gave her some silver.

She planned to take Chunchan to her side once she got a position, so that her life would be easier.

How come this person appeared in front of her before she even asked for him?

Chunchan, wearing the clothes of a senior palace maid, looked at Lingxi with a smile, bowed, and said with a joyful tone: "This servant greets the noble lady."

Ling Xi hurriedly tried to get out of bed to help her up, but he almost fell down due to exhaustion. Chun Chan was so scared that she hurriedly supported her and explained, "It was Eunuch Jinzhong who went to the Sizhiku to ask for me. He knew that the young lady didn't have many servants around her, so he asked me to follow her."

Ling Xi asked in surprise: "What did you say, noble lord?"

Chunchan showed a delighted expression and replied, "The Emperor has made you a noble lady today, and has given you a title and decree, granting you the right to live in Yongshou Palace. Moreover, you are the only one living in Yongshou Palace at the moment."

Ling Xi was a little surprised at her position. If she remembered correctly, the promotion of palace maids had to start from being official girls, and they could not skip levels for promotion. How come she was a noble lady from the beginning?

However, Ling Xi changed her mind and thought that this was also a good thing. Who would refuse a high position? Since the emperor had conferred the title on her, she would just accept it.

It seems that the two months of drama were not performed in vain for the emperor.

If the dog emperor was so generous, she wouldn't mind letting him perform more.

Hahaha, the heroine is just acting, without any sincerity. In her eyes, the emperor is just a big pig's hoof, very greasy.
