Dream Pavilion was crowded with visitors at night. However, the noisy sound of drinking, laughing, and lewd chat didn't come through to Nanxin's elegant private house.
Feng Qianmu deeply fell in love with Nianxin after meeting her many times. At first, he thought that she was just a beautiful woman in a brothel. However, he had never expected that she was more elegant and noble than the actual noble ladies. She was pure and charming but not gaudy, always having a decent smile and graceful manner.
Nianxin was far away from those cheap and filthy prostitutes. Sometimes she was like an innocent fairy, and sometimes she was like a seductive witch. Feng Qianmu just sat there and watched her without doing anything else, but he felt so much in his heart. In the past, he surrounded himself with women all day as if he couldn't live without women. However, now he turned up his nose at other women.
"Nianxin, will you marry me? I promise I will neve
After drinking the "cross-cupped wine", Nianxin smiled and looked at Feng Qianchu. Her eyes were enchanting and seductive, and her voice was soft."Honey, no need to rush. You have to promise me some things first.""Okay, darling, I will meet all your needs.""First of all, you have to love me for the rest of your life.""I am sure I can do it.""You can't marry any concubines.""I'm a person of much muscle but little refinement. It's so lucky for me to marry a beautiful woman like you, and I will never look at any other chicks.""I grew up in a decent family but was tricked into working in a brothel. I hope that you can ignore the rumors, honey.""I know. Darling, we already slept together, and I will not care about what others say.""Honey, stop it!" Nianxin blushed as she said so, and she looked even more charming....Gradually, Fe
The poor old couple of the Fengs were still waiting for their new daughter-in-law. Their second son went to call her, but he was also missing now. They had been waiting until the evening when their eldest son returned home. Finally, they saw their mysterious daughter-in-law at dinner time. The old couple pretty much hadn't left the two chairs in the middle of the main hall for the whole day.Nianxin showed up, wearing a veil and an embroidered white dress, with only an ordinary pearl hairpin on her head. She came to the hall accompanied by Feng Qianchu.Master Feng had been furious, but he still had to suppress his rage because of his noble identity. He couldn't say any cursing words. However, Mrs. Feng didn't need to be so polite."It's a universal rule that a good daughter-in-law should be from a decent family. I knew a whore who came from a brothel would be different. You didn't visit your parents-in-law until now, and when you finall
The second son of the Fengs, Feng Qianwu, hid away from his home every day recently. However, Nianxin would never spare him easily.Now, the old couple of the Fengs didn't want to see Nianxin, so she got a lot of spare time. On an afternoon of a breezy, sunny day, Nianxin appeared in the restaurant of the second son of the Fengs. She only wore an embroidered white dress and a simple hairpin with a pearl.Feng Qianwu was discussing business in a private room upstairs. He had not noticed Nianxin, who was in the main hall. Nianxin was a rare beauty. Now she deliberately showed her stunningly beautiful face and was only followed by an ordinary servant girl. Soon there was a buzz in the main hall. Even people in the private room upstairs could hear the noise and started to feel curious.Feng Qianwu looked out from the private room. He saw the white figure he had been hiding from on purpose. He felt so complex for a moment. Feng Qianwu had no
When Feng Qianwu ran into Nianxin, he knew he could no longer ignore her. He replied, "I couldn't fall asleep, so I came here to have some fresh air.""Second Brother, you still don't want to call me your sister-in-law.""No, it's just...""Since you don't want to call me that title, then you can just call me Nianxin.""Nianxin.""Second Brother, you don't like me at all, right? You hate me just as your parents do because I am from a brothel.""My thought doesn't matter. You are chosen by my brother.""For me, it matters.""Nianxin.""You mean a lot to me..." Nianxin paused on purpose before continuing, "Because we are family!""Yes, we are family," Feng Qianwu repeated it to himself and to Nianxin as if it's a reminder for him to keep a proper distance from Nianxin."Second Brother, you have been hiding from me recently, right?"
Feng Qianchu and Nianxin's bridal chamber still looked the same as before, but the bridegroom was gone. Feng Qianmu put Nianxin on the bed. Staring at the woman's innocent sleeping face, he could no longer control himself.The person he loved was right in front of him. Feng Qianmu wanted to take advantage of her, and he did it. He had been thinking about touching her beautiful body for a long time. Finally, his eldest brother was gone, so he didn't scruple to do it. When he was about to put his hands on her, she turned over and woke up.However, Feng Qianmu had no intention to let her go this time. He had been enduring for so long, which had already destroyed his will. Ignoring Nianxin's resistance, he grabbed her and controlled her under his body, trying to kiss the woman's pink and delicate mouth.It happened too fast, and Nianxin hadn't prepared for it. The humiliation buried deep in her heart was recalled. It felt like that her night
The breeze was gentle in the afternoon. It was not summer yet, but people could already feel warm. A beautiful, pure, and slim woman held a bowl of food cooked with medicinal herbs in her hand. She gently pushed open the bedroom door of Master Feng. Nianxin dismissed all the servants. She wanted to take good care of her father-in-law as his daughter-in-law in private. The woman wore her charming smile again when the door closed. She became more enchanting. She put the bowl on the table and walked to the stool in front of Master Feng's bed. Nianxin sat down. Her tone was ironic, which was incompatible with her soft and weak voice like breeze. "Old General Feng, you must have never expected that you would get into such a mess." The old man in front of her couldn't speak. He couldn't even raise his hands. A week ago, he was gray-haired. However, now he was a hoary-haired old man. Looking at him, Nianxin smiled and continued.
Yunfeng College was a school in the Empire of Yun named after the imperial family name, which could show how high the college's social status was in the empire. It was built by the former king's elder brother, Lord Yun Feng, who was the most gifted scholar in the last generation. This gifted scholar always stayed away from the political world and only loved cultural knowledge. However, it was a pity that his health condition had been bad since he was a child. At that time, King Yun had not succeeded to the throne when he passed away without marrying a wife, let alone having a child.To commemorate this rare scholar, Yunfeng College was preserved by King Yun. It became a place training talents for the empire. Many children of noble families came here because graduates from this college would gain higher social status. This place was also a starting point for many gifted but poor students to fulfill their dreams. Of course, it didn't mean that people had to study in Yunfe
After listening to Wu Shuang’s self-introduction, Wei Ruxuan said immediately, “I’m Wei Ruxuan. I’m also a new student at Yunfeng College. Thank you a lot for your help just now.”“It’s okay. No problem.”“I really appreciate that, Young Master. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how to get away from them.”“Stop calling me Young Master. We’re classmates now. Ruxuan, just call me Wu Shuang!”“Okay, Wu Shuang.”“Then let’s go through the admission formalities together.”“Okay, but...”Wei Ruxuan hesitated, feeling a little embarrassed. He looked way beyond messy. His clothes were torn by the robbers and hung on his body in tatters. His luggage was also taken away. With this kind of outfit, he didn’t even know how to walk into the college. Wei Ruxuan was not expecting to run into Wu Shuang again. Luckily, Wu Shuang, who was clearly dressed up, didn’t change his nice attitude because of Wei R
In the Hall of Death, Xuan Zhi stood courteously in front of the sculpture. The atheistic man sincerely prayed for the first time in his life. Lying beside him was the dead body of Shui Yinzhu.Shui Yinzhu’s body was still in the pink dress. There was a hairpin with two pearls on its hair. The body had decayed, but Xuan Zhi still grabbed her hand and treated it like a treasure.He took up a dagger and cut his two wrists. His blood flowed onto her body as if he was transferring vitality to her. When the blood was drained, his life came to an end. It was a sacrifice of his soul so that he would stay with Shui Yinzhu in the afterlife.Time went back to the day when Shui Yinzhu passed away. Xuan Zhi wrote an edict that Yun Su wouldn’t be sentenced to death and would be locked in that palace for the rest of his life. It was what Shui Yinzhu wished, and Xuan Zhi was fulfilling her wish.On the same day, Xuan Zhi abdicated the thro
He was thrilled at her consent. But when he was about to move on, he noticed the fear in her eyes. Xuan Zhi realized that it must have reminded her of what Yun Su did to her, so he stopped moving and held Shui Yinzhu in his arms instead. He wouldn’t continue, knowing that she was hurt so deep within and that she might get unhappy.“What’s wrong?” Shui Yinzhu asked.“Nothing. There’s no need to hurry. We have plenty of time for you to get used to it.”Shui Yinzhu didn’t say a word. Her Zhi had always been a silly man in front of her. She kissed on Xuan Zhi’s lips. The woman was running out of time, and she couldn’t wait for her inner world to heal. What she hated was the touch of Yun Su, the past of herself, and even her own body. But Shui Yinzhu loved Xuan Zhi. She was willing to consummate the wedding with him.Xuan Zhi was no longer repressing himself now that Shui Yinzhu had already taken the initiative. Hesitation would
“Oh, you fool. You are such a fool.”Shui Yinzhu felt moved and sad. The two opposite emotions lingered at the bottom of her heart. The mixture was kinda sweet. As she lied down in Xuan Zhi’s arms, the girl understood that she was selfish and couldn’t accept any betrayal of Xuan Zhi. Tears dropped from her eyes. Xuan Zhi loved her so much. What should be done to repay that?As he saw her tears, Xuan Zhi immediately wiped her face clean. “Come on, easy, Yinzhu. It’s my fault. Feel free to blame it on me. Just stop crying, or I will feel hurt. I’ll always be by your side and keep you happy.”Their love moved Uncle Zhi and Li Yi. But Zuo Xin was still there. Uncle Zhi had to interrupt as he said, “Your Majesty, how are we supposed to deal with Zuo Xin?”“Zhi, let go of her and marry her to Xiaojing.” No one expected to hear that from Shui Yinzhu. She wasn’t born a Bodhisatva, but she wanted to accumulate merit for him as Xuan Z
At that moment, Uncle Zhi had mixed feelings about her. He didn’t hate Shui Yinzhu. Instead, he simply felt that she had too much influence on Xuan Zhi. Besides, her reputation had been discredited by Zuo Xin. But the woman in front of her had only several months to live. Uncle Zhi agreed to her request, partly because of his selfishness and partly out of sympathy.Shui Yinzhu wiped the tears on her face, kept down her sadness, and told Uncle Zhi to get Li Yi in. No matter how bad she felt, she had to keep up with the show.The conversation was quite simple with Li Yi. Shui Yinzhu promised her that she would give an answer to everyone in a month. She got Li Yi reassured and told him to treat Paner well before sending him away.To her surprise, Xiaoba showed up right after Li Yi left. He shook Shui Yinzhu’s shoulders as his eyes went red for sadness.“Did you hear our conversation?” Shui Yinzhu immediately realized that. “Don
In the name of their so-called reputation, the men in the audience hall in the imperial palace suddenly had amnesia of the benefit they got as well as the reduced casualty. They simply tried to ditch the poor girl after conquering the Empire of Yun.That was the misfortune of women in this period of time. The men had a selfish will that the woman would make the “proper” choice so that they would secure their loyalty and morality at the same time.Shui Yinzhu never thought that Xuan Zhi would chase her out of the hall. Xuan Zhi held her in his arms and kissed her lips regardless of her resistance. It was one of the very few times for him to be aggressive in front of her.It was a clean kiss filled with warmth and yearning, different from the disgusting one of Yun Su. The two hearts in love started to beat faster. Shui Yinzhu was soon lost in that kiss. The veteran in love was as innocent as a maiden in front of him. That was how love coul
The Empire of Yun, the once superpower and the only Kingdom that ever conquered the entire world, had turned into a place in turmoil under more than ten years’ reign of Yun Su. People all over the empire complained about their rulers. The empire would soon fail, and the end was coming near.The morning session in the Empire of Yun continued. But the evil empress in red remained the same unreasonable woman. She sat in Yun Su’s arms and flirted with him even though the empire was in grave danger.The silent ministers were not sure if they should speak against their irresponsible emperor as the grave situation and the serious discussion had been defiled by the erotic aura. But Yun Su seemed to enjoy holding the beauty in his arms as he accepted it and didn’t say a single word against it.The ministers were there to suffer. They had to do their report with their head lowered. No one had the courage to look at the two on the throne. It wasn’t
“Many years ago, there was a little girl. She was the little princess of the Kingdom of Shui. Her parents loved her and provided her with the best affection. However, when she turned nine years old, the Kingdom of Yun waged war against the Kingdom of Shui... The little princess felt as if she was a jinx. In order to protect the ones she loved from dying, she had to sacrifice herself to live with her enemies.”Shui Yinzhu then told her story, including her relationship with Kong Yue and Xuan Zhi. She told the little girl about the death of Kong Yue, the injury of Xuan Zhi, the care of Qi Yuan, and the destiny of Wu Chen. She omitted the part that she was a child of the emperor’s father and how she retaliated upon the general, the Prime Minister, and the lords.Shui Yinzhu was the storyteller, but her heart still ached when she recalled the past. Surprisingly, the string of her heart could still be plucked by the past after all the time passed. She was
Speaking of the empress Shui Yinzhu, people all recognized her as the personification of a succubus. She was so charming like a vixen whose glamour in innocence could attract everyone around her. She didn’t wear the phoenix crown and robe, the status symbols as the empress but the blood-red dress. She kept her hair in a bun, and wore a simple hairpin with two pearls on it. The emperor of Yun was so fascinated by her that he forgot the responsibility of the throne and started to kill innocent people.Under the constant and mostly intentional influence of the evil empress, Yun Su raised the tax over and over again. He forced his people to do labor work and abused his power and the financial resources to build wonders. The nervous people were sent everywhere to build grandiose temporary palaces for the pleasure of the emperor and the empress.The emperor totally ignored the welfare of his people as he would torture them for saying anything wrong. He con
“Paner, where is the...bamboo scroll?”“What?”“The bamboo scroll...you mentioned.”“Oh, right.” Paner finally remembered what she came here for and took out a bamboo scroll from her pocket. This was the reason why she came to find Shui Yinzhu.“Okay.” The pain drained all the strength from Shui Yinzhu’s body. But she still managed to read the message before sending Paner to burn it.The bamboo scroll came from Wei Ruxuan. He intended to cooperate with Shui Yinzhu. It wouldn’t be hard to guess that it was because of Bu Xiaoyan. But Shui Yinzhu didn’t expect was that Wei Ruxuan could send this bamboo scroll to her through this well-guarded harem. Prime Minister Wei’s influence could reach farther than it seemed.As the window opened again, Xiaoba took out a flask and handed it to Shui Yinzhu. “I asked the doctor to have the medicine boiled for you.”“Okay.” Shui Yinzhu took the flask and
