She suddenly felt a little maligned by this.
However, she was not about to name her mother as the guilty party.
At the same time, she felt that if she did not give an explanation, His Majesty would surely end up building a wall between them.
She gave this some thought, and suddenly threw her blanket aside and climbed onto Long Yang. She gripped his shoulders and bent down toward him, getting closer.
“Your Majesty, it’s not true that I don’t like being with you…” she explained softly. Soon, she was buried in the man’s domineering embrace.
Lu Liangwei felt something tighten around her waist. The next moment, she found herself lying beneath him.
“Weiwei, remember, you were the one that came on to me.”
Lu Liangwei had lost herself in Long Yang’s kisses by the time she heard his words. She fumbled about while trying to wrap her hands around his waist. All words were lost at that moment.
Long Yang could no longer hold himself back; he grabbed her tight around her waist as he brought her to an elevation high into the clouds.
It was a night of pa.s.sion.
Lu Liangwei was so tired, she fell into a deep sleep.
Long Yang looked at the girl in his arms and kissed her on the forehead.
He had never expected this girl to act so brazenly, daring to lay herself on top of him.
It was, however, undeniable that her inadvertent actions had given him a different experience.
If not for the fact that he was worried she might not be able to take it any longer, he would not have let her off so soon.
He smiled. He could finally let things go and feel satisfied with it.
There was no need for him to take her past actions to heart.
It was because the only person who had her was him. He was the only one who was able to admire every inch of her beauty.
The next day.
When Lu Liangwei woke up, Long Yang had already headed to the imperial court.
She took a look outside and saw bright daylight, but she felt a little lazy and wanted to stay in bed longer.
It was also because she was aching terribly all over.
His Majesty had been very thorough with her yesterday night, and her body was still feeling lethargic from it.
She wanted to get up, but her body just would not budge.
She leaned against the side of the bed for a while, but her eyelids had gotten heavy and very soon, she fell asleep once again.
When Lu Liangwei next woke up, she was disturbed by loud noises coming from outside.
She rubbed her eyes and was about to get up when Zhu Yu pushed the doors open and entered.
Zhu Yu looked a little unhappy as she said, “Miss, the Virtuous Consort and the other concubines are here with the Crown Princess to greet you. I wanted to get them to leave, but they insisted that we should not ignore proper etiquette. They are adamant about greeting you before they leave.”
Before Lu Liangwei could reply, Lu Yunshuang suddenly barged in.
“Lil Sis, are you okay?” She sounded very concerned as she ran straight toward the bed.
Lu Liangwei’s gaze turned to her.
Lu Yunshuang seemed to suddenly remember something as she immediately stopped in her tracks to explain, “The day is already getting late and I realized you haven’t got up from bed, so I feared that you might be feeling sick. That was why I barged in out of worry. You won’t blame me, would you, Lil sis?”
As Lu Yunshuang spoke, her eyes turned to size up Lu Liangwei.
She saw portions of Lu Liangwei’s bare skin, which were not covered up in time. They were covered with various spots of red marks. Her heart sank.
Long Chi had told her that the Emperor might have been cured of his poison, but she was not willing to believe it.
However, when she saw the obvious love marks on Lu Liangwei’s body, she had no choice but to accept the facts.
Her fingers clenched tight in her sleeves.
The Emperor had actually been cured?
If the Emperor has been cured and Lu Liangwei manages to bear him a son in the future, that would mean there would be no place left for Long Chi. Her dreams of being an Empress would be…
A deep fear crept up within her. She felt shocked and angry at the same time.
Why did Lu Liangwei deserve to have such a good life?
Lu Liangwei observed the strange look on Lu Yunshuang’s face and immediately covered herself with the blanket.
“Even though you are the Crown Princess, you have barged in here without waiting for me to summon you. That is truly a disgraceful act. You’re hereby sentenced to be grounded to within the Eastern Palace for half a month,” Lu Liangwei said with a hint of exasperation.
Lu Yunshuang had used the excuse of being concerned to barge into her bedchambers without being summoned. Even if she was the Crown Princess, it was a legitimate reason to punish her.
