Chapter 164 Yongqi has no meat to eat again

The contest between Voltay and Saiya finally ended, with Voltay narrowly defeating Saiya.

"Your Majesty, the warriors of your Great Qing are all excellent, truly first-rate!" Ziker watched with great excitement, and Qianlong laughed heartily when he saw Fu'ertai win the contest.

Emperor Qianlong smiled and looked at Fu Ertai and Saiya on the stage, saying, "Ertai is the second son of Grand Secretary Fu Lun. He has been by Yongqi's side since childhood and is Yongqi's right-hand man."

"His brother, Fu Erkang, is my imperial bodyguard and also my son-in-law. He married my Princess Mingzhu last October."

"Your Majesty, these words are useless to me. As long as Saiya agrees, I have no objection."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qianlong laughed heartily again, "I think Saiya and Ertai's good fortune is just around the corner."

"Your Majesty, let's wait and see. When Saiya speaks up, then you can grant their request."

"That's what I meant too."

Fuertai and Saiya on the stage were naturally unaware that Qianlong and Qiker were already thinking about their married life.

"Ertai, after we eat, you take this princess to explore Beijing properly."

"yes."

Yongqi sat with Xiaoyanzi in his arms below the stage, watching the two on stage, and said with great emotion, "Xiaoyanzi, when do you think they will go to Father Emperor to ask for an imperial edict?"

Little Swallow shook her head. "I don't know either. Besides, there's nothing to guess. Is there some kind of reward if I guess right?"

Xiao Yanzi leaned against his chest, looked up at him, and after seeing Yongqi's eyes, she immediately felt that nothing good was going to happen, and she didn't want to guess anymore.

"Keep your eyes to yourself, don't let outsiders think you're a womanizer!" Most importantly, don't let her get scolded because of you! She didn't seduce him; it was his own lack of self-control!

Just as Yongqi was about to do something else, the martial arts tournament came to an end, and Qianlong took Qiker and the others to have a meal.

Yongqi really wanted to sneak away, but given the occasion, it was really not a good time for him to do so, so he could only drag Xiaoyanzi along to accompany him.

"This is clearly your business, why are you dragging me along?" Xiao Yanzi wanted to have some free time, but Yongqi caught her and made her eat and watch a play with Qi Ke'er and Qianlong.

"If you weren't here, I couldn't stand being here any longer." Yongqi's simple words made Xiaoyanzi roll her eyes.

What? If she leaves, are we supposed to say it's because she wandered off that Yongqi couldn't focus on accompanying Qiker?

"Husband, please, let go of my hand, I need to use the restroom." Little Swallow had been holding it in for an hour, but finally couldn't take it anymore and made an excuse to sneak away.

"If I go to the restroom, are you going to come with me?" Little Swallow looked at Yongqi pitifully, trying to evoke his sympathy.

Yongqi smiled at Xiaoyanzi, gently stroking her face with his large hand, and whispered in her ear, "I'm afraid Madam isn't going to relieve herself, but rather trying to sneak away, isn't she?"

Although Yongqi verbally refused, he still let Xiaoyanzi leave the table.

Xiao Yanzi left cautiously, worried that Yongqi had deliberately let her out, but she encountered no obstacles along the way and did not see him at all, which put her at ease.

"Ertaisaiya wants to go out to play, Ziwei is too unwell to walk, and Sister-in-law Qing'er is at home taking care of the children, so I'll go find Ziwei." Having made up her mind to go to Shufangzhai to see Xia Ziwei, Xiaoyanzi immediately headed towards her destination.

However, when she got close to the Imperial Garden, she was pulled behind a small rockery inside the garden, and her mouth was covered by a hand. Xiao Yanzi thought it was some kind of villain, but it turned out to be Yongqi.

Xiao Yanzi pried Yongqi's hand away and asked, "Why did you come out too? Did Father Emperor agree?" She was somewhat surprised and puzzled.

Yongqi had one arm around her waist and the other hand pinching her chin, stroking her lips. "I said I would give you free time, but I didn't say how long..."

Little Swallow: "..."

As soon as Yongqi finished speaking, Xiaoyanzi's lips were sealed by his, "Mmm..."

Xiao Yanzi tried to struggle, but couldn't break free. The two kissed inside the artificial hill, while palace maids passed by outside.

"I'm becoming more and more envious of the Fifth Prince's wife. The Fifth Prince treats her so well."

"That's right. If it were anyone else, they would probably have taken a concubine while the wife was pregnant, but the Fifth Prince only thinks about the Fifth Princess."

"Let's not even talk about taking concubines. Princes usually have maids to accompany them before marriage, but our Fifth Prince has always been chaste and virtuous. Ever since his wife entered the palace, he has only seen her."

"A few years ago, when the Fifth Princess Consort wasn't in the palace, weren't there still shameless people trying to climb into her bed? And what happened to them..."

"During that period, the Fifth Prince was not in good condition, but there were still people who wanted to climb the ranks. As a result, they encountered such a devoted man as the Fifth Prince, and could only consider themselves unlucky."

When Xiao Yanzi heard that someone shamelessly climbed into Yongqi's bed, she bit Yongqi's lip hard, and only then did Yongqi let go of her.

The palace maids outside had already left. Little Swallow glared at him, "Someone's trying to climb into my bed?"

Yongqi quickly explained, "Yes, that did happen, but it's all been resolved. I had someone put that woman at the entrance of Yonghe Palace, where she was beaten naked with a board until she died..."

"I am still yours alone. Only you can defile me! You have to believe in my innocence."

"How could you let me hear this from someone else's mouth!" Little Swallow was a little angry.

Yongqi quickly hugged her and whispered in her ear, "We haven't done it in the Imperial Garden yet, do you want to try it once..."

Little Swallow was so frightened her legs went weak. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

In the Imperial Garden... How could he even think of that? If someone heard this, what would happen! Wouldn't the Empress Dowager kill her?

“That way everyone will know that the two of us are inseparable.” After Yongqi finished speaking, he covered her mouth again.

Little Swallow was speechless. Her lips were already bitten and injured, how could she still kiss him?

As Xiao Yanzi struggled, Yongqi's large hand touched her thigh. "Husband, calm down!"

"Please, not here... I beg you." Little Swallow didn't want to cause a commotion in the Imperial Garden and become the laughingstock of the entire palace.

Yongqi finally stopped what he was doing, picked her up, and Xiaoyanzi, whose legs were already weak, nestled comfortably in his arms.

She only realized later that Yongqi had led her to a room she had never been to before. "Where am I?" she asked.

"It doesn't matter." Yongqi's kiss covered her again. Xiaoyanzi was pushed down on the bed, powerless to resist, and could only let him do as he pleased.

However, when Yongqi's hand touched the inside of his thigh, an accident happened, and Yongqi would have to go without meat for several days.

When Xiao Yanzi saw Yongqi like that, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Husband, I didn't do that on purpose."

She didn't provoke him; he was the one who started it and got into trouble. Now, he has to put it out himself.

Yongqi was depressed. After a long time, he suppressed his desires and then slowly carried Xiaoyanzi back to Yonghe Palace.

Xiao Yanzi was in better physical condition than others, so during those inconvenient days, apart from bleeding, she was fine. Therefore, she changed the menstrual pad herself.

Both of them changed their clothes. Afterwards, Yongqi told Xiaoyanzi to rest well on the bed in the study, while he could go about his business there. As for Qianlong, he could just send someone to inform him; after all, Qianlong already knew he was a henpecked husband…
