Chapter 94: Do You Even Deserve It? Ye Yueshen waited outside, finding a spot out of the shade to stand, tilting his face up to bask in the sunlight with his eyes closed. The look in Yongning Junzhu's eyes as she saw him off at the door flashed through his mind. He couldn't help but wonder what their relationship with Gong Xunwu looked like to others. At least in the eyes of his family, it wasn't a good deal, and they were all worried he would get taken advantage of. Now, thinking back to his state of…-

Chapter 93: Thank you for reciting his words to me… Consort Yu was imprisoned in an inconspicuous courtyard deep within the palace. Originally, she was to be executed as a warning to others, but the royal family was unwilling to let too many people know about this scandal. The Empress Dowager was old and couldn't bear it, so Consort Yu's matter was put aside. Everyone's attention was on the Crown Prince and the Imperial Concubine, and no one remembered Consort Yu, who was not a prominent figure. Ye…

Chapter 92: Let Your Ninth Brother Play With You Ye Yueshen sat down in the side hall. Gong Xunwu glanced at the palace servants, and they all left. Ju Su looked at the servants, then at Gong Xunwu, and then walked towards Ye Yueshen with some uncertainty, turning his head to look back again midway. Gong Xunwu asked him, "Why are you staring at me?" "Afraid you'll chase me away." Ju Su always had a hint of schadenfreude. He took Ye Yueshen's pulse and said something unrelated to the cold in a very idle…

Ye Yueshen woke up and stood by the bed for a while, feeling a bit dazed after just waking up, especially after staying overnight in an unfamiliar place. It was even more disorienting in the morning. Gong Xunwu acted like an attentive servant, stepping forward to smooth out the wrinkles in Ye Yueshen's clothes from the night before, even kneeling on the ground to pat down the hem of his robe. "Last night, you fell asleep, and I originally wanted to take off your clothes to make you more comfortable,"…

Chapter 90: Meeting in Zhe Rong's Room Chapter 90: Meeting in Zhe Rong's Room Gong Shengyin, as expected, received a heavy slap. Gong Xunwu's broad palm struck his ear, and he quickly felt tinnitus. But he didn't back down or admit his mistake, as if the recent changes in the imperial court had given him great confidence. He licked the blood from his lips, straightened up, and faced Gong Xunwu. Ye Yueshen had opened his eyelids when the loud slap rang out, and he heard Gong Shengyin speak, refusing to…

Chapter 9: As Expected, It Still Came Ye Lingshen said it wouldn't happen, "When the Third Prince moved into his own estate, Qi Wang didn't attend. If he came today, wouldn't that be favoring one over the other?" Ye Yueshen felt relieved and got out of the carriage with him. He didn't really want to see Gong Xunwu, a senior who wasn't approachable at all. Now that he thought about Gong Xunwu tying his hair, his scalp still tingled. Today's banquet wouldn't be too extravagant, to avoid officials…

Chapter 89: Exotic Customs Ye Yueshen ignored Gong Xunwu and turned to look at the slow but alluring movements of the exotic man. The man was performing a limbo, his head easily touching the ground like a snake, his distinct knuckles supporting him. A rose fell from his skin, revealing a bloody wound. Ye Yueshen touched his arm, calming the goosebumps that had risen beneath his sleeve. The man stood up, holding a silver tray inlaid with dark red jewels, walking past the onlookers. Some stepped back,…

The scene became very awkward, even Gong Xunwu's situation should be a bit embarrassing, but he remained calm and composed, as if no matter how Ye Yueshen treated him, he wouldn't be angered. He was ready to accept any emotional impact from Ye Yueshen. Ye Yueshen didn't say anything harsher. Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, he took a few steps forward. Gong Xunwu's fingers slightly curled on his knees, as if hesitating whether to reach out to him in front of Ye Yueshen's family. His hands and…

Chapter 87 I Don't Know What to Do With Him... Gong Xunwu showed Ye Yueshen his palm, a cut following the lines of his palm that was almost everted. It was unknown how much blood had already flowed out, but it was still visibly dripping down in a line. "There are people from the Noble Consort among the Imperial Guards. I blocked a knife for the Emperor." Gong Xunwu didn't think bleeding was a serious matter at all. He even lightly curled the corners of his lips and told Ye Yueshen, "Gong Shengyin didn't…

Chapter 86: Are You Injured? Ye Yueshen was half-drunk, half-awake. Ye Lingshen was the first to grab a long blade and rush out. Yan Kui told Ye Yueshen to stay in the house and not go out, and then followed him out. The sounds of fighting outside could faintly be heard in the house. Marquis Ye also grabbed a weapon and wanted to go out, but the Junzhu held him back, "You're over fifty, what's the point of joining in the fun? It's not your turn to fight yet!" "It's enough for Father to stay by Mother's…
