I am the champion of palace intrigue, and even the proud prince bows his head in submission.

Chapter 205 Xie Yanli's kiss grew even more passionate

"what happened?"

Seeing that Qin Jiuwei's expression was a bit strange, Xie Yanli couldn't help but ask.

Qin Jiuwei frowned slightly. "It's nothing."

She couldn't help but ponder.

Gao Xian is the emperor, so his residence must be different from theirs. They might not even run into each other.

There's really no need to worry so much right now.

"You may all leave now," Xie Yanli instructed.

When Qin Jiuwei came to her senses, she found that only she and Xie Yanli were left in the room.

She knew it...

Xie Yanli's sudden return certainly wasn't just to see her, as he claimed.

Before Qin Jiuwei could react, Xie Yanli had already turned around.

His deep phoenix eyes locked onto her, and he suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

Qin Jiuwei trembled slightly at the sudden hug and subconsciously reached out to wrap her arms around his waist.

"Madam..." Xie Yanli murmured in her ear in a hoarse voice.

Qin Jiuwei's ears turned red, and Xie Yanli took the opportunity to lean down and gently get close to her.

His lips gently landed on Qin Jiuwei's lips, caressing them tenderly. Qin Jiuwei's heartstrings fluttered, her peach blossom eyes slowly closed, and her long eyelashes blinked incessantly.

As the movements deepened, Xie Yanli's kisses became increasingly passionate.

His arms were wrapped tightly around Qin Jiuwei's waist, as if he wanted to completely meld her into his body.

Their bodies were pressed tightly together, with almost no gap between them.

Sensing his loss of control, Qin Jiu murmured, "No, no..."

If they keep kissing like this, something bad will happen sooner or later.

"I haven't seen you all morning, let me give you a kiss."

Qin Jiuwei: ……

Do you want to hear what you have to say?

At this moment, Xie Yanli's eyes were already bloodshot from kissing, and before Qin Jiuwei could react, he kissed her again.

His kiss was filled with possessiveness, his tongue eagerly probing in and entwining with Qin Jiuwei's.

Qin Jiuwei's cheeks flushed again, her breathing became rapid and disordered, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Her hands unconsciously gripped Xie Yanli's clothes tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.

Xie Yanli's large hands began to caress her slender back, but he restrained himself and did not go any further.

After a long while, Xie Yanli released her.

Qin Jiuwei's face was flushed, her chest heaved violently, her delicate lips were slightly swollen, and her eyes still held a lingering sense of dazedness.

She breathed heavily, glared at Xie Yanli, and said in a soft voice, "In broad daylight, you can't do this again next time."

Xie Yanli chuckled softly, his laughter deep and pleasant.

"I'll listen to you, Madam." His warm breath brushed against Qin Jiuwei's face.

Qin Jiuwei's lips curved slightly as she raised her hand to straighten Xie Yanli's somewhat disheveled collar.

Her eyelashes drooped, casting a beautiful shadow on her fair cheeks.

Xie Yanli looked at her quietly, his eyes full of love and doting.

At that moment, Zizhu's voice came from outside, "Young Master, the carriage is ready."

Xie Yanli reluctantly released Qin Jiuwei, his fingers gently gliding across her palm before turning and stepping out of the room.

Qin Jiuwei stood there, and only after he disappeared did she begin to instruct the maid to prepare the things she would take to Kaiyuan Temple the next day.

The Imperial Palace, Lingyan Pavilion.

The maid Meng'er placed the porcelain bowl beside the bed and said gently, "Your Highness, it's time to take your medicine."

Mo Qingkui opened her eyes and saw that the familiar figure was not in the room, and her brows furrowed instantly.

"What about the emperor?"

"His Majesty..." Meng'er said cautiously, "He didn't come."

"Didn't come?" Mo Qingkui exclaimed immediately, staring at her with wide eyes, her gaze flashing with hidden anger.

"Why didn't you come? Didn't you tell the Emperor I was sick? You didn't come last night, why haven't you come today!"

Mo Qingkui couldn't take it anymore and started yelling at Meng'er.

"I...I've already told Eunuch Li!" Meng'er knelt down with a thud, begging for forgiveness repeatedly, "I really told you everything!"

"Impossible! How could the Emperor know I'm sick and not come over!" Mo Qingkui said, tears streaming down her face.

She had clearly given Gao Xian a way out, but why didn't he know to take it?

As long as he comes to see her, she will stop being angry, and the matter will be over!

But to my surprise, he actually didn't come. How could he do this!

"Your Majesty," Meng'er mustered her courage and advised, "His Majesty is still angry. If you go and apologize, he will definitely soften his heart."

"I'm not going," Mo Qingkui said almost immediately. "Why should I go? I did nothing wrong!"

This was the first time she had ever made a handmade gift for a man, but he didn't appreciate her feelings at all!

Why should she have to be subservient? She has dignity too!

With that, Mo Qingkui threw off the covers and buried herself in them, ignoring Meng'er beside her.

Upon seeing this, Meng'er couldn't help but purse her lips tightly.

No wonder people in the palace say in private that Consort Chen is not mentally sound.

She used to argue back, but now she just nods in agreement.

That's right, absolutely right!

Early the next morning.

"Mother, may I bring Little White with me?"

Xie Jue held the cat, his big, bright black eyes blinking hard, full of pleading.

Seeing his pleading expression, Qin Jiuwei smiled slightly, but still hardened her heart and refused.

"No, you can't." She reached out and ruffled Xie Jue's hair. "Kaiyuan Temple is too big. If the kitten runs away, you'll never find it again."

Upon hearing this, Xie Jue's face immediately fell.

"I'll just stay at Kaiyuan Temple for two nights and be back soon." Xie Jingchun twirled the sharp sword in his hand and said casually, "Third brother, you're too clingy to the kitten."

Xie Jue snorted at Xie Jingchun, "Big brother, you don't understand anything!"

Then he sighed, "Alright then."

He stroked the kitten and coaxed it in a childish voice, "Little White, be a good boy at home, okay? I'll be back soon."

Qin Jiuwei stood beside him, looking at him with a gentle smile.

“Mother.” Xie Jing’s gentle voice suddenly rang out as he walked slowly toward them. “Father said the carriage is ready and asked when we can depart.”

Qin Jiuwei picked up Xie Jue and said in a light and cheerful voice, "Let's go now."
