Chapter 230: Weak king’s seventh princess consort (Part 47)
She really couldn’t get out of bed the next day.
But her body was covered in small red dots and had been soaked in sweat from last night, so she wasn’t suited for running around.
She had to take a bath first, then she would find some clothes with a high collar to wear. It was cold anyway, so she might as well wear a fur cloak!
“Empress, are you awake?” Nian Nian heard the sounds and tentatively asked this.
Luo Qing Chen’s mind turned and she thought: That’s right! She still had Nian Nian!
“Ke, ke——” She cleared her throat and said, “Help me pick some begonias from the back garden and send them to the Fragrant Pond. Don’t let others know about this!”
After she said this, she picked her clothes and stood up before walking to the Fragrant Pond.
The Fragrant Pond was very close to her palace, she could get there just by taking a small stone path.
She was rather lazy, so she rarely came here to bathe. But if she bathed in her palace today, perhaps her master would come before she even finished!
Thinking of this, she became angry. The task panel said that it was a weak king, why did it become like this!
She narrowed her eyes, the pond’s temperature was not too hot or too cold, it was just right. She closed her eyes and it felt very comfortable.
There were the sounds of footsteps nearby that wasn’t soft or heavy, but they sounded familiar.
“Nian Nian, just casually sprinkle it around and bring that fruit wine over for me.” She had her eyes closed and spoke in a soft voice. In this pond covered in mist, there was a vague scent that filled the air.
“Why don’t I know that Qing Qing likes to drink fruit wine.” A gentle voice sounded that made Luo Qing Chen instantly open her eyes.
The first reaction in her mind was: Nian! Nian! This! Traitor!
Chu Nan Xian took the wine and drank it all. There was a faint smile on his face as he looked at her with sparkling eyes and said, “Not bad.”
“Master, why are you here……”
“King Guo Jun of the king’s manor to the west saw Nian Nian at the banquet last time and seems to like her. After morning court, he followed me into the palace.” Chu Nan Xian walked to her step by step and he said with passionate eyes, “Nian Nian also seems to have some affection for him, so I had her send him some begonias.”
“Nian Nian really is a traitor!”
“This is also good, there will be no one to disturb me and Qing Qing.”
After saying this, he entered the pond to pick her up. The water and flowers scattered in all directions, as the begonia petals seemed to drift away on the wind.
Luo Qing Chen’s heart skipped a beat and a trace of crimson filled her face.
Playing in the water, skin touching! Although she didn’t know how many times it was, she was still embarrassed!
After that, Chu Nan Xian leaned over and softly planted a kiss on her. With his familiar scent and that warm voice, it dug into her heart inch by inch before shattering all her defenses.
She closed her eyes and smelled the scent he gave off. Her body didn’t feel that tired, rather there was a faint joy that filled her.
After a while, the two came together in the water and entered another world……
When she opened her eyes again, she was back in the warm bed and sitting by her was the gentle as the wind youth. He was holding her and softly patting her back, comforting her to sleep.
For many years in the future, he kept doing the same. If she was by his side, she could comfortably close her eyes and not worry about anything.
–
A few years later, she slept more and more. A normal sleep was for several days. He searched the continent, but he still couldn’t find a way to cure her.
The only thing he could do was use his power as the Evil Monarch’s Court’s pavilion head to forcefully keep her in this world.
Until the Evil Monarch’s Court of Floating Wind Mountain collapsed in the middle of the night……
