Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty
Chapter 158 - 158: Loyal Maid Who Died Because of Beauty (28)

Yue Ran and Pei He hugged each other and enjoyed this wonderful time together.

But if it was just hugging one another, then it is not Yue Ran, okay? She was bored, and there was almost nothing to do on this kind of ancient plane. Naturally, the only entertainment that could be played here was the entertainment in bed.

Yue Ran narrowed her eyes like a sly little fox and asked, "Does Cousin not want to try the taste like the one last time?"

Pei He had felt the bliss and the feeling of ecstasy, and he still misses that feeling to this day.

When this subject was brought up so suddenly, Pei He opened his lips but could not say a word.

Once again, the curtains fall, hiding the scenery of the bed inside. There were sounds of laughter in the room, but the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards stood outside calmly as if they could not hear a rustle or noise.

…

The Hall of Mental Cultivation

After staying in the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a few days, Lu Heng finally figured it out. He had already straightened out his thoughts well, and he had also calmed down.

Although Lu Heng could not win Yue Ran's heart, it was already good enough for Yue Ran to be by his side. Maybe some things can't really be forced.

Despite the fact that the young emperor had made up his mind, it would be difficult to ask for Yue Ran's forgiveness if he were to take the initiative to apologize and find her first. And therefore, Lu Heng could only lose his temper in the Hall of Mental Cultivation every day.

In the past few days, all the palace servants who served in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were trembling every day, fearing that they would accidentally offend the emperor in one second and that their heads would be lost in the next.

Wang Li understood that since the emperor came back from Noble Consort Yue's Palace of Celestial Favor, the emperor has not been happy for a day. It was very likely that the two protagonists had a fight, and thus the emperor was throwing a temper tantrum here.

But with the emperor's unpredictable temper that could explode even with the slightest touch, Wang Li did not dare to take the initiative to say anything. So Wang Li could only be seen standing silently on one side of the room, trying to lower his sense of existence.

On Lu Heng's side, he could not think of a way out at all. Seeing all the palace servants around him, he suddenly called out, "Wang Li, come here."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Wang Li answered as he stepped forward to walk closer to the young emperor. "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Seeing how Wang Li was bowing his head while nodding meekly at him, Lu Heng suddenly felt as if he had found someone very unreliable. But then again, he could not find anyone else that he could trust, so he could just tell Wang Li about his problem first before he could rethink the idea he received later.

Lu Heng coughed twice before saying, "It is like this. I have some conflicts with the noble consort, but... I do not want to take the first initiative to, um, you know..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Li intently understood what Lu Heng meant. And then a wretched smile appeared on the face of the chubby eunuch. His eyes were bent so much that Lu Heng could no longer see them.

"What are you smiling so uglily for?" Lu Heng asked with a tone so solemn. The furrowed brows on his face could kill a fly. "Do you not understand what I am talking about?"

"This servant understands, this servant understands," Wang Li quickly replied as he tried hard to straighten the smile on his face, although he still failed to do so. At least he has given it a try.

"So, what can you do?" Lu Heng asked.

"This is just a simple thing, Your Majesty," Wang Li said in reply. "Your Majesty can just make the noble consort jealous. For example, Your Majesty can find a few beauties to accompany Your Majesty to have fun, and then spread this kind of news to the noble consort's ears in the Palace of Celestial Favor. What does Your Majesty think of this idea?"

Hearing what Wang Li had said, Lu Heng nodded and felt that this idea might just work. But both had already forgotten that Yue Ran has no affectionate feelings for Lu Heng at all.

"In this case, then I will leave this matter to you," Lu Heng said. "If this idea really did work in the end, then I will reward you heavily."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Wang Li replied flatteringly.

No one knows if Lu Heng was just too confident or if he really thought that Wang Li's method was really good, so he was sure that Yue Ran would really come.

…

All the concubines in the harem knew that the emperor did not like to enter the Six Palaces recently, so he only summoned musicians to play music in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

No one knew how many veils the concubines of the Six Palaces had torn because of this. Originally, they thought that if the emperor hated Noble Consort Yue, then they would have a chance to win his favor, but they were wrong. The emperor would rather hide in the Hall of Mental Cultivation and listen to female musicians play music than go and walk around the Six Palaces to see the concubines in the harem.

Lu Heng waited left and right in the Hall of Mental Cultivation to wait for Yue Ran, but all the respectable consorts and concubines came except for the one he wanted to see the most.

Feeling angry, Lu Heng smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground in a shatter and roared out, "Wang Li, get the hell here!"

Wang Li was so scared that he immediately walked in and kneeled on the ground, trembling.

"Your… Your Majesty," Wang Li said in a quivering voice.

"How did you handle this matter?" Lu Heng questioned sternly. "Why has the noble consort not come to see me yet? Has the news reached the Palace of Celestial Favor?"

"Your Majesty, there is no one in the Six Palaces that does not know about this news," Wang Li explained submissively. He had spread the word extremely well already, but it was the noble concubine herself who did not want to come to see the young emperor.

In fact, Lu Heng also understands clearly that it was Yue Ran who did not want to come to him, and he himself felt very uncomfortable knowing this. He would rather lie to himself and say that it was Yue Ran who had not heard of this news at all, but this little lie was also broken by Wang Li's words.

Why does Yue Ran not come to him? Why does Yue Ran not care about him?

On the side, a woman was peeking at the scene in front of her.

After several days of observation, the woman, Bai Ji, also noticed that the emperor was having a conflict with Noble Consort Yue and wanted her to come to him on her own initiative. However, the noble consort just did not come.

Thinking this way, Bai Ji suddenly felt that this might be her chance. So, holding the short-necked Chinese lute in her hands, she walked closer to the emperor with a smile.

"Your Majesty, this servant has a way to solve this predicament," Bai Ji said. "It is like this..."

Lu Heng was so angry that he did not notice Bai Ji's flattering and flirtatious expression at the moment, but Wang Li by the side saw it.

This was another reckless person, Wang Li thought. Even he, a eunuch, could just see how sincerely the emperor treats the noble consort, but this musician really wants to seek death.

…

Everyone in the Six Palaces thought that the emperor only recruited musicians to listen to music on a whim, but who knew that he would actually favor a female musician during this time?

On the second day, the newcomer came to offer tea to the empress during the morning greeting. If it were an ordinary tea offering, then Yue Ran would not have to come and attend so early in the morning, but the protagonist is Bai Ji.

With Bai Ji here, there would definitely be a good show to watch, so how could Yue Ran not go?

Yue Ran did not arrive very early to the empress' palace, and she also did not arrive late. She calmly walked in and sat in the seat while waiting for the show that was to come.

When everyone inside saw Yue Ran coming, they thought that the young girl finally could not bear it any longer and thus wanted to see just who dared seduce the emperor when she was not there.

The emperor's new and old lovers came today. There was not even a need to think about it to know that there would be a good drama to watch.

"Yesterday, the cold wind blew all night," one of the harem concubines in the seats below, with the title of a noble lady, said out loud. "I do not know if I heard it wrong, but I seem to have heard the sound of the Imperial Favor Carriage passing the long imperial street.
