Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 168 - 167: What Bad Thoughts Could Lin Yi Have?

The outcome was, naturally, quite obvious: the Empress ended up getting drunk.

When the Empress woke up again, it was already early the next morning.

Looking at the Emperor sleeping beside her, the Empress couldn’t help but blush.

Although she drank too much last night, that peculiar feeling is still vividly remembered.

It must be admitted; the Emperor is truly formidable.

However, the reason for her drunkenness was unclear to the Empress herself.

Normally, her capacity for liquor was rather impressive, but for some reason, she had been drunk twice already in front of the Emperor.

It seems her alcohol tolerance really has declined.

She wondered if the Emperor would have an opinion about her indiscretions.

It seems she will need to seriously practice her drinking tolerance when she returns.

The movement here also caused the young Emperor to open his eyes.

However, when the Empress saw the Emperor’s bloodshot eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of heartache:

"Your Majesty, it’s still early. Rest a while longer. When the hour arrives, your consort will wake you."

Hearing this, the young Emperor simply smiled and pinched the Empress’s face:

"Hehe, I’ll not sleep any longer, let’s get up now.

How do you feel? Can your body take it?

If you’re alright, then let the Empress attend to my dressing today."

Seeing the Emperor’s bloodshot eyes, the Empress felt that she was truly thoughtless.

The Emperor had been busy with state affairs all day, and yet he had to stay up late into the night.

She shouldn’t have troubled Your Majesty, it was not proper.

As for her thoughts, naturally, the Emperor was unaware at this moment.

As for why the Emperor’s eyes were red and bloodshot, it was all because of that bastard Lin Yi.

Especially after recalling his conduct from last night, the young Emperor felt an intense urge to grind his teeth in hatred.

That scoundrel dared to behave presumptuously, displaying dragon and phoenix auspiciousness.

How could he remain calm now?

If it weren’t for the fear of people finding out, the young Emperor would be eager to drag that fellow out and personally beat him with twenty heavy strikes.

And to avoid unnecessary trouble, after it was over, the young Emperor sent Lin Yi directly back to rest.

After hearing the Emperor’s request, the Empress could not help but feel joyful, even if she were truly exhausted, she’d still try her best to tend to the Emperor’s dressing needs.

Thus, under the watchful eyes of the young Emperor, the Empress first dressed herself neatly, then began to personally attend to the Emperor’s grooming.

And it has to be said, the Empress clearly had learned well.

She tended to the Emperor’s grooming even better than the palace maids.

And looking at the Emperor’s exquisite profile, the Empress somehow had an illusion.

She couldn’t help but mutter in her heart, "Your Majesty is truly handsome.

This face is much more attractive than my own.

If born a woman, I wonder how many heroic gentlemen would be charmed?"

"Your Majesty, your consort was thinking about selecting a group of beauties for you at the beginning of next month. May I know what type you prefer more?"

The Empress gently spoke while combing the Emperor’s hair.

Yet after these words were spoken, the young Emperor’s body suddenly trembled.

Fortunately, she had a strong enough mental fortitude to quickly calm herself down, and then turned her head in slight surprise to look at the Empress:

"Why must I select beauties for the draft at such a peaceful time?"

As he spoke, the young Emperor reached out and directly seized the Empress’s jade-like hand, and continued in a gentle voice:

"These Palace Maids and eunuchs are sufficient for the time being. As for other matters, I currently have no such inclinations.

Right now, all my thoughts are devoted to the realm and the Empress.

As for the selection of beauties, let’s talk about it later.

Having the Empress by my side is more than enough."

At these words, the Empress’s eyes immediately reddened, nearly moved to tears on the spot.

Of course, along with the touching moment, a deep sense of guilt surged in her heart:

"Your Majesty should not indulge me so. This is utterly inappropriate.

Your Majesty is the sovereign of a nation. The presence of three palaces, six houses, and 72 Concubines is necessary.

If I, your servant, only think of monopolizing Your Majesty alone, it can only mean I am not a qualified Empress.

Your Majesty has reached the age of majority, yet has no progeny. Whenever I think of this, my shame is profound.

Sadly, I have not been competitive; having been married for months, there are still no signs of pregnancy.

Therefore, I believe that many hands make light work. Perhaps one of them would bear a Prince for Your Majesty.

This would also lessen my sin."

Well then, the Empress at this moment actually began to think about taking concubines for the young Emperor and bearing children for him.

But she did not realize that the Emperor before her felt the same as she did.

Thus, upon hearing these words, the young Emperor did not feel at all grateful for the Empress’s thoughtfulness; instead, it only increased the fear in his heart.

"The Empress should not speak nonsense. Now is the time for regaining supreme power; how can we afford to be distracted by affairs of the heart?

We shall discuss this matter later; it’s not appropriate at the moment.

Alright, I have to attend the court assembly. You should also go back and rest early."

As he spoke, the young Emperor gently patted the Empress’s jade hand and then stood up, approaching the Dragon Robe and spread his arms, waiting for the Empress to dress him.

Hearing this, the Empress suddenly woke up from her dream.

It seems that she had indeed been too compassionate. Now was the time for His Majesty to seize power, and indeed he should not be distracted.

She had already been causing enough trouble for His Majesty and now she had the intention of adding more. It appears she had been inconsiderate.

With these thoughts, she hurriedly came before the young Emperor and began to help him put on the Dragon Robe:

"Your Majesty, it was my lack of thought."

After hearing the Empress speak so, the young Emperor showed a trace of a smile on his face:

"Haha, the Empress need not take it to heart. The matter of bearing a Prince naturally cannot be rushed. Just let things take their course."

Having said that, he was now fully dressed and strode out.

Once the Emperor had left, the Empress stood there with a face full of disappointment.

Of course, she was not disappointed in the young Emperor, but in herself.

It seems she was still far from being a qualified Empress.

Not to mention how the Empress and her entourage of Palace Maids returned to Anning Palace, let’s talk about the young Emperor alone. freewebnσvel.cøm

Today’s court assembly was as usual, without any turmoil.

After it ended, he specifically called the Fourth Prince aside:

"Fourth Imperial Uncle, stay a moment. Accompany me to the Imperial Study Room."
