Young man, please stay

Chapter 306 I Want to Marry You
"Xing'er, Xing'er, how have you been these days? I haven't seen you come to play in my house for a long time."

"Alas... what are you playing at, Sister Tao'er? As the saying goes, once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. How can I be as comfortable as you are with the princess..."

"Oh, come on, you still act like you don't want to show off your wealth in front of me... The emperor is very good to you, that's enough."

……

The Dragon Boat Festival banquet at Laifeng Terrace was still lively, but since Empress Qin Lang and Gu Jin had left, Su Yinping and Zhuo Beibei had mysteriously gone off to have private conversations, so the full table of feast was given as a reward to the two maids Tao'er and Xing'er.

The two maids naturally did not hesitate to show courtesy while their masters were away.

Girls of this age have strong desires in all aspects, including appetite.

Thus, the two of them temporarily became the only two VIP guests of Laifengtai. While feasting on the food, they chatted about all kinds of gossip like ordinary sisters.

"Of course the emperor treats me well. What I mean is that it is not convenient for the maids in our palace to leave the palace without the emperor's order."

"Oh, there's nothing I can do about it...Xing'er, do you really want to leave the palace?"

"Tao'er, you don't know how to appreciate your good fortune. Of course, you can go out and play anytime you want... Fortunately, Her Majesty always asks me to buy Zhu Yan for her first, so I can read it first and don't have to compete with others every time it goes on sale~"

"Your Majesty is also watching "Red Face"?"

"Nonsense, which literate woman doesn't read Zhu Yan nowadays? And many men read it too. After all, the first place on the Tianxiang Ranking is the Fengyue Ranking. Humph, now many rich playboys only look at the rankings on the red light district when they go there, and don't even bother to go if they are not on the list."

"Haha, man..."

Tao'er and Xing'er pouted at the same time, and then the next moment, Xing'er's eyes lit up:
"Speaking of men, Tao'er, that...Mistress..."

"Mian Shou? What Mian Shou?"

While the empress is away, the little girl Tao'er is going to speak up for her princess:
"Young Master Qin is the son-in-law of our Princess Mansion~!"

"Uncle...?"

"Humph~ Yes, my son-in-law is handsome and useful, he understands women's hearts, he is not only good at martial arts, but he can even cook well! And his literary talent is also first-class."

Tao'er also drank a few glasses of wine. As she got drunk, she became more and more excited. Her face was rosy as she leaned close to Xing'er's ear and whispered:
"Do you know that the true identity of [Chang Le Gong] is actually our brother-in-law~!"

"what?"

Xing'er was shocked, and after the shock she felt deep envy, and then deep loneliness.

"Ugh…"

"What are you sighing for?"

"Tao'er, you are so lucky. You will have such a son-in-law following you in the future... I wonder how many maids will envy you..."

"Hey, don't say that."

Taoer blinked and pinched her fingers a little embarrassedly:
"It's too early... our wife hasn't married yet... and Xing'er, why are you envious of me? Won't His Majesty marry a son-in-law sooner or later? Won't you have to accompany him then?"

"?!"

Xing Er was horrified when she heard this:

"Sh-!"

She signaled Tao'er to be quiet, then looked at the other maids around the Phoenix Terrace and reminded them in a low voice:
"Tao'er, please don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty is a goddess of heaven and the ruler of a country. How can you marry the same man as someone else?"

"That's true... but my family is the emperor's biological sister, and in terms of order, the lady was born earlier. If she says she is unwilling to marry the same man, then it will make our lady even more unhappy..."

"Tsk! Look at you, you only know how to speak for the princess. I'm serious. So what if I'm your sister? That can't be compared to the emperor. Have you ever considered your wife?"

"this…"

Taoer thought about it and thought that this seemed to be a problem, but then she thought again that even if it was a problem, it was not something she could solve, so she simply gave up and continued to eat:

"Whatever, but I believe that our son-in-law will definitely have a way~ Xing'er, don't be discouraged, believe in the emperor, you will definitely be able to follow the emperor and marry our son-in-law in the future, and then we will warm the bed for the son-in-law together~ You warm the left side and I warm the right side~"

"Oh Tao'er! You...you..."

You are so shameless, what are you talking about? Xing'er covered her hot face, unable to bear it anymore, and kicked Tao'er lightly.

As a result, Tao'er screamed "Ah", immediately lowered her head and lifted up the hem of her skirt, startling Xing'er and confusing her:

"I didn't use any force, you are blackmailing me, right?"

"What? I'm afraid you'll kick my stockings and tear them..."

Taoer rubbed her calf while mumbling:
"…This thing is very rare now. Today I met the maid of the Taiwei's wife on the street. She said that the wife's stockings were torn and could not be worn anymore. Now she was in a hurry to take out 500 taels of gold to beg for it. Unfortunately, there is no one to buy it now."

"Five hundred taels?!"

Although Xing Er knew that the stockings given by the Empress Duanwu were extremely precious, she did not expect them to be so precious. So she lowered her head and tugged at the hem of her skirt, looking at her ankles wrapped in white stockings, and was quite scared:
"If these stockings were so easy to tear, I wouldn't dare wear them."

"No, they won't get damaged that easily unless you use them. The Grand Marshal's wife's stockings... well... they were said to have been torn by their Grand Marshal."

"Tear it?"

Tao'er looked stunned and angry.

It's a good thing, why tear it up?
Humph, it must be a quarrel between a couple. They tore things apart in a fit of rage. The general is really a piece of shit.

Hehe, man...

"Hey~! Taoer, what are you doing!?"

"Hehe, who told you to kick me just now? I'll kick you back~"

"You kicked me much harder than I did! Aren't you afraid that you might actually tear my stockings?"

"Oh, don't worry. I'm not that careless. I took off my shoes. Look." Tao'er stretched out her little feet, which were also wrapped in white silk, and rubbed them on Xing'er's calves.

I have to say that the colorful moon silkworms in the Biluo Valley are really mysterious. The stockings on both sides touch each other, so slippery and even more silky.

Xing Er was not to be outdone and took off her embroidered shoes as well. The two maids, like little girls, stretched out their white silk feet and kicked and rubbed each other under the table. In the end, their soft soles even stuck together, playing a little competition to see whose toes were more flexible...

……

I have to say, the maids had a lot of fun after drinking.

If Qin Lang knew that he had missed this tempting scene, I wonder if he would regret it.

Of course, to be honest, Qin Lang naturally cares more about the empress tonight than the lovely performances of the maids.

----------

"You are here."

"?!"

In the small pavilion under a maple tree in the back garden of Taihua Palace, the empress, who had been looking at the moon in the sky and drinking for a long time, twitched her ears and looked at Qin Lang who suddenly appeared behind her in disbelief:

"You...how do you know I..."

"You can find out by asking. But you, with your ability, didn't even notice me approaching."

Qin Lang walked over and sat directly beside the empress, looking seriously into her misty eyes:
"Baby, what's wrong with you today?"

"..."

The empress blinked slowly, her long eyelashes trembling, and turned her drunken red face away:

"I'm fine..."

"..."

Although she said so, Qin Lang saw the expression on the empress's face in the moonlight and felt that she actually hadn't said anything more.

[I'm fine...don't bother me...]

And if the Empress wanted to say this complete sentence, then there is another meaning behind it:
[I'm not good! Come and take care of me! ]

So Qin Lang didn't hesitate and directly exposed her:

"I noticed that you were in a weird mood at noon today, and at night too. Now it seems that it's not just limited to today. You must have been thinking about it for the past few days, right?"

The empress looked back in surprise, then quickly straightened her face again and poured a cup of Zui Hua Yin. As a result, as soon as she raised the cup, Qin Lang grabbed her wrist.

"Qin Lang, what are you doing?"

Su Yupan showed a hint of anger, frowning and scolding him:

"You bold traitor, are you going to rebel?"

"This isn't the first day I've been a traitor. If I wanted to do something, I would have done it long ago."

"you!…"

"Okay, stop drinking."

Qin Lang gently wrapped his other arm around the empress's slender waist and sniffed her neck:
"How much have you drunk? You smell like flowers all over your body... If you are drunk, will you still go to court tomorrow?"

"Let me go..."

Su Yupan struggled a bit, her beautiful body rubbing against his arms for a while, her waist itched and softened from being rubbed by his big hands, and finally she gave up without caring:

"I already said... I don't want you to care..."

As she said this, one of her delicate hands had already tightly grasped Qin Lang's collar, as if she was afraid that he would get up and leave.

"I...have long since stopped wanting to attend court, and have long since stopped wanting to be the emperor..."

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to do it, then just don't do it."

"Well... no more..."

"..."

When talking to a drunk person, you always have to coax him/her halfway, and the same goes for Qin Lang.

After drinking, Su Yupan's voice inadvertently became a little more coquettish, as if she had really become someone's empress baby. Qin Lang's heart melted when he heard it.

"Baby, if you don't want to be the emperor anymore, what do you want to do?"

"Of course I can do whatever I want..."

"You don't want to be the emperor anymore, so what about me?"

"I told you not to bother with it anymore—!"

The aftereffects of Zui Hua Yin were clearly getting stronger. Who would have thought that the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty was now like an unhappy little girl, shaking her head vigorously and deliberately throwing the tassels of the nine-tassel crown on her head at Qin Lang's face, making Qin Lang not know whether to laugh or cry, and could only quickly hug her tightly:
"Whatever, whatever, I don't care about you, you can do whatever you want, okay?"

"Um…"

The empress snorted, and after a moment's silence, she raised her head. Her eyes, under the tassels, reflected the stars in the night sky, and also happened to reflect another round of brilliant fireworks rising high above the Laifeng Terrace:

"Qin Lang, I don't want to be the emperor anymore... I want to marry you..."
