Long Live the Empress

Chapter 327 Heart like a drum

When Yan Liyuan entered the room, Yue Jinghao was stroking the back of her hand.

"But it's itchy again?" Yan Liyuan removed the cotton cloth from Yue Jinghao's hand, picked up a small porcelain bottle from the table, melted the ointment on his fingers, and gently applied it on the back of Yue Jinghao's hand.

At this time, the swelling on Yue Jinghao's hand had subsided, but the back of her hand had turned purple, which looked even more terrifying!

Yan Liyuan's eyes darkened, and he pursed his lips as he applied the medicine bit by bit.

"It's much better now, except for a little pain and itchiness occasionally! He Bai's medical skills are really amazing!" Yue Jinghao praised He Bai.

When I applied this medicine on the back of my hand, it felt cool and didn't itch at all! He Bai's medicine was really magical. If it were someone else, this hand would have been frostbitten and rotten.

But when Yan Liyuan heard these words, they changed their meaning. What was so great about He Bai, a playboy?

“World-class people!”

The implication is that he is more powerful!

The moon is quiet...

Isn't this just a competition of who is better?

This is politeness, do you understand?

"Nine Thousand Years Old is of course the most powerful! There is really no one else in the world who can stop a child from crying except Nine Thousand Years Old!" Yue Jinghao said seriously.

Yan Liyuan was not annoyed, he just raised his eyebrows and said: "If you marry me, I will listen to you in all matters big and small in the future! That way Jing'er will be more powerful than me!"

……

Is this person really the cold-blooded and ruthless Yan Liyuan?

Why does he only say sweet words to coax women?

Yue Jinghao rolled her eyes in her heart, and suddenly noticed that since she woke up, Yan Liyuan no longer called himself "this governor" in front of her, but "I". Does this mean that Yan Liyuan wants to get along with her on an equal footing...

Yue Jinghao was thinking this way, and even when Yan Liyuan called her several times she didn't hear him.

"Jing'er..."

The voice rang out for the umpteenth time before Yue Jinghao came back to her senses, "What's wrong?"

Yan Liyuan sighed and repeated what he had just said, "I said, my father only loved my mother in his life, and my mother was the only woman in his life. I was five years old that year, and after my father had an accident, my mother was so heartbroken that she followed my father..."

After living two lives, Yue Jinghao still knew about Yan Liyuan's family for the first time. After his parents passed away, Yan Liyuan was alone and helpless, but the love between his parents was really touching...

"You must have had a hard life..." Yue Jinghao felt a little distressed for Yan Liyuan. Such a young child suddenly became an orphan. If his life was not hard, why would he enter the palace to become a eunuch?

The eunuchs and palace maids were the best at bullying people, and their dirty tricks were countless. Some old eunuchs, due to long-term repression and psychological distortion, would reach out to the young eunuchs who had just entered the palace...

How Yan Liyuan was able to rise from a eunuch to the position of the 9th thousand year old emperor, who else but Yan Liyuan himself could know the truth and suffering behind it?

Yan Liyuan was stunned. People had always respected him, feared him, and been terrified of him... but no one had ever felt so sorry for him, and no one had ever asked him if he had lived a hard life...

Apart from the blow of his parents' death, Yan Liyuan really didn't feel that he had a hard life. The old emperor treated him like his own son because of his parents. From childhood to adulthood, his education, training, food, clothing, expenses, etc. were all taken care of by the old emperor himself. Everything was better than what the princes did!

Except without parents...

Seeing Yue Jinghao's appearance, she must have misunderstood something, but Yan Liyuan selfishly didn't want to explain. He thought, if she couldn't love him, it would be good for her to have some pity for him...

As long as she is by his side...

Yan Liyuan held Yue Jinghao in his arms, took a deep breath, and said, "When my parents were alive, I thought that when I get married, I must be like my father to my mother, and stay together for the rest of my life... Jing'er, are you willing?"

Yue Jing's heart was beating like a drum, and her face was blushing. Thinking back on her past and present lives, she was not an ignorant girl. Why was she so shy?

"Um……"

Although the voice was as soft as a mosquito, Yan Liyuan still heard it. He was overjoyed and said, "Jing'er, can you say it again... just now... I didn't hear it just now!"

Yue Jinghao was already extremely ashamed and angry after answering once, how could she say anything else?

She wanted to push Yan Liyuan away, but failed. She could only helplessly say, "Forget it if you didn't hear it... I'm tired..."

She was about to lie down. Yan Liyuan had finally waited for Yue Jinghao to agree. How could he let her go so easily?

Yan Liyuan buried his head in Yue Jinghao's neck, rubbing it back and forth, and said in a coquettish tone: "Jing'er, can you say it again? Hmm?"

Yan Liyuan's breath sprayed on Yue Jinghao's ears, making Yue Jinghao tremble all over. She pushed Yan Liyuan away and huddled under the quilt, "Oh... go ask mother! I want to sleep!"

Yan Liyuan laughed softly a few times. He also knew that the little thing was shy, so he stopped teasing and leaned over to Yue Jinghao's ear and said, "Then... Jing'er, have a good rest. I'm going to find... Mother..."

Yan Liyuan spoke the word "mother" with great emphasis. Yue Jinghao pulled the quilt over her head and ignored this shameless man!

Yan Liyuan pressed the quilt on Yue Jinghao's body, then turned and left.

Yue Jinghao poked her head out from under the quilt, blushed and glanced at the closed door, pursed her lips and smiled, then tucked her head back under the quilt...

This feels pretty good...
