Chapter 134 Stop Flattering
Shen Shixi let go of him and knelt in his arms. "Don't be angry. Xie Tingwan isn't blind. How could she possibly be interested in your brother? You say you two are brothers from the same mother? Who would believe that!"
Look how beautiful your face is, you're gorgeous from head to toe. Li Yuanyin isn't bad-looking either, but he can't compare to you.
"And as for your figure, I know how great yours is, but Li Yuanyin is just a skinny chicken; and as for his abilities, honestly, choosing him as a man is like raising a giant son—you can't rely on him at all."
"Shut up, how can you be so mean? What did he do to offend you?"
[Damn it, now you remember your brother? Fine, Li Yuanke, I've learned that you treat your brother better than me. You protect him, yet you dare to insult me!]
Shen Shixi snorted coldly, turned her head away and ignored him. Let him get angry if he wants, what does it have to do with me? It's not like I made him angry.
She was playing with the paperweight on the table, completely at ease.
Li Yuanke had no choice but to coax him, saying, "You can say these things to my face, but you're not allowed to talk nonsense outside."
Shen Shixi rolled her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Li Yuanke, I want to eat walnuts, lots and lots of walnuts."
Why?
"Look, in your eyes I'm so slow-witted, I need to get some extra help, right? Isn't it said that you should supplement what you're lacking?"
Li Yuanke laughed, his pent-up frustration vanishing. He hugged her and said, "What's wrong with your sharp tongue? Don't you know your place?"
Shen Shixi slumped in his arms. "So, you also know that Li Yuanyin once wanted to marry Xie Tingwan, and the Empress Dowager disagreed?"
"Um."
It's not hard to understand; after all, this was someone who was going to enter the palace, so Li Yuanke must have thoroughly investigated even how old this person was before they started wearing open-crotch pants.
"Are you angry? Sad? Do you feel that the Empress Dowager favors Li Yuanyin more than you? How old are you? Why are you still holding grudges?" Shen Shixi stood up and put her arms around his shoulders.
"What's there to argue about? Aren't all parents the same? Look at my dad, how biased is he? Have I ever complained?"
Li Yuanke was furious about this and refused to let Li Yuanyin marry the woman he was supposed to marry.
The Empress Dowager was afraid that Li Yuanyin would do something stupid, so she put people into his harem. Has he never seen a woman before?
"What did your father do wrong to you?" Li Yuanke felt he had to say something fair.
"What's so good about it?" Shen Shixi asked. "From childhood to adulthood, has he ever supported any of the things I've wanted to do? He's always opposed them, and he would never agree unless absolutely necessary."
What I can't forgive is that he vehemently opposed my plan to establish a female-dominated household and have a son-in-law take over. Otherwise, I'd be surrounded by beautiful women by now, with several handsome men serving me. Wouldn't that be better?
Seeing Shen Shixi practically drooling, Li Yuanke was almost driven mad with anger.
Why are you looking at me like that? Are you trying to stand up for my dad again?
"What has your father done against your wishes?"
Li Yuanke was in great danger. He wanted to kill her. This was a rebellious, absurd, and lawless thought. He wanted to cut open her brain to see what was inside.
He had no doubt that if he weren't an emperor, she would never have been with him, and might even have actually done something like that.
Shen Shixi was unaware that she had been exposed.
"Which one of them was in my favor? It's my brothers and their family, hmph, no matter what they do, my father supports them wholeheartedly. I still feel resentful, my father is so biased. So, Li Yuanke, all parents are the same, don't take it to heart."
Li Yuanke even wanted to promote her father; what a wonderful father!
"And Li Yuanyin, don't be fooled by his seemingly affectionate appearance! Tsk, he must have moved himself, but if you ask me, he's just flirting without taking responsibility; Xie Tingwan is really unlucky to have met your family."
"Yes, following me is incredibly unlucky for her; she's suffered terribly!"
[This jerk, so sarcastic and sarcastic, does he think no one can hide his true colors? Can't we just have a normal conversation?]
"That's not what I meant. I'm just analyzing the matter objectively. Look at me, even if I married a prince, would I be as popular as I am now? Even the Prince of Jin, who is much more prestigious, was still beaten bloody by me."
"Xie Tingwan is inferior to me in every way, so why does she insist on marrying Li Yuanyin? Even if she becomes the principal wife, will she be safe from my bullying once she enters the palace? That's why we say our Emperor is the best man in the world!"
You've become arrogant after being able to fight a prince!
Li Yuanke was just an ordinary man. Even though he knew that only a part of what she said was true, he was still overjoyed by her words.
"Hmph, stop flattering me. Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"
[Heh, look at you, what's the difference between you and a three-year-old? Men, after half a lifetime away, are still three-year-olds when they return!]
Shen Shixi wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. "Are you happy now? You're not angry anymore, are you?"
"If you stay with me, I won't be angry."
"Your Majesty, my companionship is not free; it costs forty jin for half an hour!"
"And forty taels of silver?"
"Dream on! Forty taels of gold!"
That night, Shen Shixi naturally stayed overnight at Qianyuan Palace. She had been abstaining from sex for some time and was naturally very eager to have sex with him. However, Li Yuanke was worried that she hadn't fully recovered and had refused to have sex with her.
With such a handsome guy sleeping next to him every day, and unable to do anything, how could Shen Shixi not be annoyed?
Since she was able to eat meat today, she didn't hold back.
Originally, they planned to go to the hot spring to wash up before going to sleep, but before Shen Shixi could even close the door, she started to undress Li Yuanke. Li Yuanke had been craving her for a while, and he was aroused by her advances, so the two of them undressed each other.
They entered the hot spring pool while embracing and kissing each other, and Li Yuanke was pinned against the pool wall by Shen Shixi.
"Take it easy, you bastard! I've never seen anyone wilder than you!" Li Yuanke grinned, his grip on her shoulder tightening uncontrollably.
Shen Shixi's legs were wrapped around his waist, and Li Yuanke had to support her to prevent her from falling.
"Sweetie, stop fooling around, let me pamper you!" Shen Shixi kissed his face, and Li Yuanke slapped her on the buttock in anger, "Shut up, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Is this something you should be saying?
He couldn't control himself, and a sound escaped his lips. Once again, he felt an intense pleasure without having to exert himself.
Shen Shixi was also exhausted; doing all the work herself was too tiring.
However, Li Yuanke must have felt really good. He couldn't recover for a long time and even lost some strength, so he sat down on the steps with Shen Shixi in his arms.
He looked down at the person in his arms, who was covered in fragrant sweat, had a flushed face, and still had lingering passion in her eyes and brows. Li Yuanke was so moved that he lowered his head and kissed her.
The two are still connected.
Shen Shixi absolutely refused to exert herself anymore. Wasn't she tired?
Li Yuanke tried to coax her, but she wouldn't budge, so in the end he had to do it himself.
The battlefield shifted from the hot spring pool to the couch.
This saved the two of them a lot of effort.
Before long, Shen Shixi couldn't help but interact with him. The two were completely absorbed, and their pleasure skyrocketed. Shen Shixi kept humming and whining.
Li Yuanke was so flirted with that he lost control.
The heat inside the hall reached its peak, and the cacophony of sounds drifted through the cracks in the door. Li Fude and the others blushed with embarrassment and had to move further away, finding the sounds utterly unsettling.
Inside Menglan Pavilion, Yang Tingyue was dressed in her finest attire, waiting to be summoned to serve Shen Shixi in bed. However, after waiting for a long time, she finally received news that Shen Shixi would be staying at Qianyuan Palace tonight.
"Shameless! How could she go and seduce her cousin?" Yang Tingyue was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes, and she swept the cosmetics off the table.
