Grand Occasion, Excuse to Stuff the Belly (1)

“Your Majesty must be fatigued from the travel, so it’s better to return to the palace first.” Jing Wan softly said.

Li Hong Yuan had his line of sight shifted from his son back onto Jing Wan, his gaze instantly becoming soft and gentle. Just, there was still that tiny bit of danger contained in his eyes, “This emperor returned on horseback.”

Upon hearing, Jing Wan nearly kneeled. Why pick at her words at this time, it’ll be very awkward, alright?! However, Jing Wan must admit, a certain someone was precisely being deliberate, just because she attempted to help her son, thus making him unhappy. Jing Wan felt that she was also very pitiful. Their son ultimately was still less than four years old. It’s just been three years! When you left, he was still in swaddling clothes. No matter what, he’s still your flesh and blood, so can’t you slightly give a tiny bit of gentleness?

You’re someone that’ll be thirty in a few months, not three years old, please, don’t be that childish!

However, Jing Wan didn’t dare to say it out loud. Shouldering a certain someone’s gaze, the pressure was very heavy. Just, they can’t just stay like this forever either, won’t that just be letting that many people see a laughing matter? “Your Majesty, in this bleak and frozen weather, it’s quite cold.”

This excuse was still very clumsy. Li Hong Yuan had been holding Jing Wan’s hand the whole time, so very much warm, but Li Hong Yuan’s expression still somewhat loosened, embracing Jing Wan’s shoulders, “Return to the palace.”

Jing Wan, dealing with a certain someone, still had a big advantage, and that was just using herself. As long as she was speaking for herself, then even if just randomly pretending, he for the most part will always compromise.

Jing Wan turned to glance at her pitiful looking son who had his shoulders drooped, and could only silently apologize. Imperial mother can only do this much. The more I do, the more pitiful you will certainly be afterwards, and imperial mother will also be ‘very miserable’. It can’t be helped, who let your imperial father return after being on the battlefield for three years, the air on him even more terrifying, a single glance can just make one shiver. All the subjects facing him can only cower, and when he’s being serious with imperial mother, imperial mother also can only back down.

Li Hong Yuan climbed onto the imperial carriage with Jing Wan. The little crown prince helplessly watched, making one feel awfully bad for him. In the end, he puffed his cheeks and climbed onto the phoenix carriage on his own, even forbidding the servants from helping him. When leaving the palace, he was with imperial mother, having imperial mother fragrant and soft embrace, but when going back, he was just alone on his own, from that lustrous and high-end jade cabbage, turning into that wilted little white cabbage, completely having no love.

In the enormous phoenix carriage, there was just him, this one little beansprout, making the inside appear quite empty. The little crown prince was still sulking, his mouth grumbling non-stop, unknown as to what he was saying. However, it was obvious, it certainly won’t be anything good. At the same time, his eyes were also spinning, don’t know what kind of mischief he was cooking up.

After entering the city, the commoners lined the two sides of the street in welcome, the joyous cheers falling incessantly on the ear. His majesty just spent three years swallowing a large country that was equivalent to one’s own. What did this mean? It meant that Qi Yuan was strong, meant that his Majesty was impressive, meant that Qi Yuan right now stood at the top, no longer having an existence that can compare with them. As a citizen of this kind of country, how can they not be happy? To the extent that they completely forgot how hated Li Hong Yuan was when he was still a qinwang. Moreover, based on the current circumstances, even if someone were to secretly mention, they probably will get attacked by the mass. That was merely just lies and rumors spreading. Everything else aside, how many ordinary commoners have actually witnessed his Majesty going on a rampage and oppressing the people back then? None!

However, the imperial carriage was covered up tightly, letting those that wanted to catch a glimpse of the emperor’s face fail in their endeavor.

Can they request his Majesty to have the imperial carriage’s surroundings opened up? Certainly no.

Speaking of which, what was the best way for the people to express their enthusiasm? Naturally it was——-‘long live your Majesty for thousands and thousands of years’——rising and falling in succession, falling incessantly on the ear.

Inside the imperial carriage, Jing Wan got tightly held by Li Hong Yuan, getting kissed out of breath. All say a short time apart surpasses the honeymoon, and for them, it wasn’t just a short time apart, but rather it was as long as three years. Because of passion, there was lust, and the body’s most intimate contact was the most direct way of expressing one another’s deep feelings. The one filled with desire wasn’t just Li Hong Yuan. Jing Wan was also the same. But, right now wasn’t a good time, and further not the right place. Even if knowing that they won’t be discovered by the people outside, Jing Wan was still exceptionally nervous, and because she was nervous, her senses were just increasingly sensitive, to the extent that she was increasingly aroused, her body wanting even more intimacy. However, the remnant of her rationality was instead clamoring for her to stop, practically killing her.

Just as Li Hong Yuan was going increasingly overboard, Jing Wan finally grabbed his hand, lowering her head and having her face buried in his neck. As a hot-blooded and vigorous man, the heat seemingly was emitting from the blood, feeling warm all over. Jing Wan continuously gasped for breath, her breath spraying on Li Hong Yuan’s neck. That was really quite fatal. His expression grew particularly dark, his slightly paused movement continuing.

“Ah Yuan, stop messing around.” Jing Wan weakly said.

TN: All

Although the outside can’t see, if they were to mess around too intensely, they certainly will still get detected. Furthermore, right now, it should be Yuan Qi Emperor receiving the people’s congratulation. To be covered up this tightly, won’t it make people have wild guesses? For those that knew Jing Wan was inside, their imagination will probably be increasingly erotic, and for those that don’t know, they will just suspect whether or not Yuan Qi Emperor was seriously injured. Towards the former, even if not getting directly pointed out by others, it will still be very awkward. In public, under numerous eyes, the emperor and empress doing such a thing that lacked in propriety, where will their prestige go? And for the latter, at a time when Li Hong Yuan’s heavenly prestige has reached the peak, perhaps it will cause unrest among the people, leading to chaos.

Li Hong Yuan naturally was aware of the severity, but it still made him quite displeased. Moreover, just based on this personality of his, without gaining anything, how could he easily give up, especially when it comes to benefits gained from Jing Wan. That was not letting go of any opportunity.

“Doesn’t Wan Wan miss me?” He had his voice lowered extremely low, even carrying a bit of a seductive hoarseness, his hands still naughtily lighting fire on Jing Wan’s body.

Jing Wan softly moaned. To be going against rules like this, it really was killing her. “Don’t, once we get back, I’ll let you do whatever you want.”

After getting what he wanted, Li Hong Yuan’s movements slowed down. Based on his self-control, when actually wanting to restrain, he was completely able to. Sometimes, when unable to restrain, that was just him inherently indulging.

Once Jing Wan settled down, she tidied her clothes, sitting exceptionally upright next to Li Hong Yuan. Aside from her lips being overly red, the corner of her eyes also faintly carrying the colors of spring, one was actually unable to make out anything else. The front of the imperial carriage as well as the curtains on the right and left side all got hung up. The scene inside completely presented itself before the mass.

In that moment, it was practically a tsunami of cheers, to the extent of making one completely unable to hear anything specific. Jing Wan for a time even suspected whether or not the surrounding sound can cover the entire capital. Alright, this was actually a bit of an overstatement. If this really were to be true, then how small would Qi Yuan’s capital be?

Li Hong Yuan was actually calm and composed, casually turning his head. Wherever he looked, the sound of ‘long live the emperor’ was just countless decibels higher than the other places.

For an instant, Jing Wan had that subtle feeling of thousands upon thousands of fanboys and fangirls facing a top-notch idol.

Aside from the background setting a bit ancient and antique, that subtle feeling really was quite intense.

However, Jing Wan discovered, a certain someone seemingly wasn’t too happy, but at the moment, she was unable to figure out why he was unhappy, all the way until among the ‘long live the emperor’, there was also ‘long live the empress’ mixed in. After it became increasingly distinct, a certain someone’s expression finally eased a little.

Jing Wan helplessly laughed. Truthfully speaking, was there really the need to be like this? Jing Wan sometimes really feel that this man was a bit like a child.

Like as if knowing what Jing Wan was thinking, Li Hong Yuan turned his head, holding her hand, “You and I are husband and wife, sharing glory and disgrace.”
