Ping Zhao Lu

Chapter 36 1 At night

Evening

Xu Zhouye woke up slowly.

His eyelashes slightly raised, his eyes moving across the dragon bed.

Then he turned his head to look at the emperor sleeping beside him.

Chu Yunxiao was seen holding his hand tightly, resting his forehead on the top of his head, breathing evenly and steadily.

That handsome face that usually carries a stern and majestic look now appears exceptionally gentle, and his innate majesty also relaxes a lot at this moment, making people want to get closer.

Xu Zhouye looked at the scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, outlining a gentle smile.

He raised his hand and carefully stroked Chu Yunxiao's eyebrows.

His fingers moved along the bridge of his nose, eye sockets, and eyebrows, as if he was engraving this face deeply in his heart.

After touching for a long time, Xu Zhouye reluctantly withdrew his hand.

However, the disturbing thoughts in his heart still surged like a tide, making him sigh involuntarily.

He moved gently, wanting to turn around and temporarily escape from this complicated mood.

But at this moment, a low and slightly hoarse voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Why did you stop?"

Xu Zhouye's body, which was about to turn, suddenly stopped and froze in an instant.

He slowly turned his head and met Chu Yunxiao's eyes as deep as the sea. In an instant, an electric current surged from the bottom of his heart, making his heart tremble.

"Your Majesty..." Xu Zhouye called softly, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice.

"Yeah." Chu Yunxiao responded immediately.

For some reason, Xu Zhouye suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him became a little subtle.

An indescribable tension filled the air, causing his heartbeat to involuntarily quicken.

Xu Zhouye took a deep breath, "Your Majesty has been waiting for me to wake up?"

"It can be considered as accompanying the Queen to take a nap." Chu Yunxiao smiled slightly, his tone was relaxed and casual, but the affection in his eyes was so strong that it could almost melt people.

At the same time, the hand holding Xu Zhouye tightened a little, as if he was afraid that the person in front of him would not wake up.

"Have I scared Your Majesty?" Xu Zhouye glanced at his tightly clenched hand and asked with a worried look on his face.

However, Chu Yunxiao did not answer him, but just stared at the person in front of him quietly, his eyes deep and focused.

After a moment, Chu Yunxiao slowly stretched out his arms and gently embraced Xu Zhouye in his arms.

He lowered his head, put his lips close to Xu Zhouye's ear, and said in a low voice: "It was I who scared the Queen." There was a subtle hint of guilt and pity in his tone.

Xu Zhouye was slightly stunned when he heard this, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He obediently put his head close to the emperor's broad and warm chest, feeling the other's strong heartbeat.

The two of them hugged each other like this, their hearts were very close to each other, everything was unspoken, and they understood what happened today, and no one mentioned it again.

After a long while, Xu Zhouye raised his head slightly and said softly, "I came to see Your Majesty for one thing."

When Chu Yunxiao heard this, he lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms, his eyes gentle and full of curiosity, waiting for him to continue.

Xu Zhouye raised the corner of his mouth, rubbed his cheek against the emperor's chest, and said pleadingly: "Your Majesty, please accompany me out of the palace."

After saying that, she blinked her eyes that were as bright as stars and looked at Chu Yunxiao with anticipation.

"it is good."

Although Chu Yunxiao had doubts, he still agreed.

Seeing the emperor's agreement, Xu Zhouye excitedly stepped forward and gently kissed Chu Yunxiao on the cheek. He couldn't wait to explain, "Actually, I've been thinking about preparing a special gift for the Crown Prince. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I still can't find a suitable idea. Then I thought, maybe I should go out of the palace to take a look. I might get something out of it."

Chu Yunxiao didn't listen to much of his explanation. Instead, he was stunned by the sudden kiss.

Although it was only a fleeting touch, the soft and warm touch remained on his cheek like a brand.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the place that had just been kissed, and a feeling of being left wanting more arose in his heart.

He slowly lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the long-desired lips of the person in front of him, and as if possessed by a ghost, he leaned over and covered them.

Xu Zhouye was stunned at first, obviously not expecting Chu Yunxiao to do such a thing.

However, after only a moment of astonishment, he closed his eyes and responded to the other's kiss gently and passionately.

At this moment, the atmosphere between the two became more ambiguous and charming, as if everything around them had disappeared, leaving only each other's hot breath and tightly embraced bodies.

Chu Yunxiao's lips fell passionately and eagerly on the cheeks and neck of the person in his arms. At the same time, his hands wandered restlessly, groping for the belt around the person's waist, and lightly hooked his fingers, as if he was about to tear it open.

At this critical moment, Xu Zhouye suddenly raised his hand and forcefully blocked Chu Yunxiao's further actions.

At this time, Xu Zhouye's breathing was slightly disordered, and his chest rose and fell with his breathing. He took a deep breath and said softly: "Your Majesty promised me that I would leave the palace..." Although his voice was light, it was firm and unquestionable.

Chu Yunxiao frowned upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashing across his face, "Now?"

He obviously did not expect that his queen would make such a request at this moment.

Xu Zhouye nodded heavily, his eyes clear and focused, and emphasized again: "Yes, now."

For a moment, the room fell into a brief silence.

Chu Yunxiao's Adam's apple rolled up and down a few times, as if he was trying hard to suppress the emotions surging in his heart.

He slowly turned his head away, no longer looking directly into Xu Zhouye's eyes that made him itch, trying to calm his restless desire.

"The doctor said you need to rest."

"Your Majesty has also seen that I am fine."

Chu Yunxiao looked back at him, finally sighed helplessly, and then slowly sat up from the couch.

"Forget it, I'll do as you say." Chu Yunxiao reached out to gather the clothes of the person lying on the couch, then turned over and got out of bed, slowly tidying up his clothes.

After finishing dressing, Chu Yunxiao carefully arranged his robes, then turned around and looked at Xu Zhouye who was about to leave his room with a half-smile. The corners of his mouth curved up and he said teasingly, "Picking out gifts is fake, the real purpose is to want to leave the palace."

Hearing this, Xu Zhouye raised his head slowly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a calm smile, and said softly: "Your Majesty has seen it, will you regret it?"

Chu Yunxiao remained calm and walked forward steadily. He reached out to take the outer robe from Xu Zhouye's hand and gently put it on him.

Then, he looked at Xu Zhouye with a half-smile and asked meaningfully, "What are you regretting? Are you regretting... stopping when you were deeply in love?"

Xu Zhouye was speechless for a moment. He opened his mouth but no sound came out. He could only stand there in a daze.

Seeing this, Chu Yunxiao's mood became even more cheerful. He extended a hand to Xu Zhouye and said in a light tone, "Let's go. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it won't be so fun anymore."

Xu Zhouye hesitated for a moment, but eventually he slowly raised his hand and gently placed it on Chu Yunxiao's hand, saying with a smile, "How could that be? Zhaojing City at night is much more interesting than during the day!"

Chu Yunxiao raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Zhouye with an ambiguous expression, "Oh? It seems that the Queen has a lot of experience in this matter."

Talking about the interesting things, Xu Zhouye instantly became energetic, his eyes flashing with excitement, and he began to talk non-stop: "Of course, not to mention Zhaojing City, even the night in Sucheng is extremely wonderful. Especially the wine in Zuixianlou, it is simply the best in the world! After drinking a bowl, people can't stop, and just want to take another bowl to continue drinking. The taste is really intoxicating and joyful! When I went there with Zhuang Yan and others, we were reluctant to leave even after passing the curfew..."

Xu Zhouye was talking with great interest. In his excitement, he even forgot to introduce himself and forgot that the person next to him was the emperor of Wei. He blurted out all the interesting things that happened when he got together with his friends in the past.

"Speaking of which, Zhuang Yan is the one who knows how to have fun. He does some undignified things when he's drunk. One night, we were drinking happily in the mansion, and he couldn't help himself. He got drunk and yelled that he wanted to go to Zuixianlou and wipe out their signboards..."

Naturally, they don't take drunken talk seriously.

Unexpectedly, Zhuang Yan actually ran out drunk.

They also confuse "Zuichunlou" with "Zuixianlou".

He was so drunk that he stepped in without even looking.

Then he shouted loudly: "Call all the signboards here! This young master is going to do something big today! It's best..." He crossed his fingers and made a "cross" sign, "Do you understand?"

The originally noisy Zuichunlou suddenly became silent and you could hear a pin drop because of his shocking behavior.

Everyone was dumbfounded, as if time had stopped at that moment.

However, this brief silence was soon broken by the sound of discussions.

"Did I hear correctly? He wants ten..."

"Ordering ten in one night, can you handle it?"

"Whose young master is this? He is so vigorous and powerful!"

"It seems to be the guy from the banker..."

"I'm so envious. It's great to be young!"

……

Zhuang Yan was already drunk to the point of being completely unconscious and staggering. He could no longer hear the whispers of the people around him and kept yelling for someone to make arrangements quickly.

The mother in the building was well-informed, but she did not dare to neglect this generous and somewhat unreasonable guest.

After inviting people to the upper room, as he wished, ten people were recruited for him - five graceful young girls and five handsome young men with handsome faces.

After the door was closed, these girls and boys swarmed in, and Zhuang Yan realized that something was wrong.

He quickly dodged the pack of vicious wolves pouncing on their prey.

But I was drunk and outnumbered.

Her chastity was at risk.

A friend heard the news and arrived in time to stop the farce.
