Chapter 1876 - 1814: Joy and Surprise
Chapter 1876: Chapter 1814: Joy and Surprise
The palace was a swirl of intrigue, and during Emperor Yan’s Longevity Festival, someone quietly passed away.
Outside the palace, the Hall of Joyous Union in Prince Jin’s Mansion, however, was ablaze with passion.
"Wufu, be good, take this and you won’t feel so bad." Ah Jiu fed the antidote to Wufu.
Wufu pleaded through tears, clinging to him like an octopus, never had he seen her so disheveled.
Ah Jiu’s heart ached, he fed her the medicine, carried her into the sleeping chamber.
The maidservants had already lit the red candles and withdrew.
Ah Jiu placed her on the bed, gently brushed away her sweat-drenched hair. Heaven knows, he didn’t wish to be united with her under such circumstances.
Their first time should be beautiful, with both of them clearly aware of each other, not as it was now, in her state of delirium.
Bastard!
Ah Jiu cursed once more in his heart, looked down at Wufu desperately gripping his clothes, sighed, and reached to undress her.
Bai Xiaobai was right, they were married, they should have consummated long ago, why argue over ceremony?
Her fair skin, an injury on her arm, Ah Jiu’s gaze deepened, touching her shoulder, the joint just reattached.
To stay conscious, she’d rather hurt herself, foolish girl, silly girl.
"Mmm..." Wufu’s slender legs wrapped around his waist, pulling herself close.
Ah Jiu pressed down, kissing her, little by little, cautiously, with utmost gentleness.
Wufu responded passionately, not enough, it wasn’t enough, she wanted more.
She cried and pleaded, clinging tightly to him.
She was in agony!
Ah Jiu stripped off his own clothes, supporting himself above her, looking at her flushed face, full of distress.
"Woo woo."
"Wufu, look at me." Ah Jiu restrained his own desires, softly calling her: "Do you know who I am?"
Wufu struggled to open her eyes, pressing her body against him.
"Answer me." Beads of sweat from Ah Jiu’s forehead dripped onto her neck, sliding down.
He was suffering too.
Wufu only felt her vision sway, all was blurred, the voice, Ah Jiu’s voice.
"Ah Jiu."
"Yes, I am Ah Jiu." Ah Jiu curled his lips: "I am your husband, your man."
Wufu’s lips curved up, moving closer.
Ah Jiu smiled with satisfaction, kissed her, his waist sinking down as well...
Curtains turned crimson, the candle flames flickered, inside the hall, the bed creaked, blending with soft moans into a melody.
Meanwhile, at the Astronomy Tower in the palace, the Supervisor of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory was observing the stars.
"Supervisor." Suddenly, the spiritual master in the Imperial Astronomical Observatory cried out in some fright.
"What is it?"
The Supervisor was jotting something down, but hearing no response for a while, turned around, seeing his pale face, pointing to a specific spot in the night sky.
The Supervisor followed his finger, what was it, was this guy crazy, Amethyst...
Bang!
The Supervisor sprang to his feet, knocking over the table beside him in the process, rushing forward with terror at that star, his voice trembling: "How, how could it..."
"Supervisor, weren’t mistaken, were you? Didn’t see it wrong!" The spiritual master stammering with a trembling voice, his legs shaking like a sieve: "The Emperor Star, the Emperor Star is dim..."
"Shut up!" The Supervisor turned and covered his mouth, swiftly looking around, growling low: "Do you want to die!"
The spiritual master looked terrified.
"Let’s go back, and pretend we saw nothing tonight." The Supervisor said solemnly: "If you want to stay alive, keep your mouth shut tight, understand?"
The spiritual master nodded vigorously, so frightened he was about to cry.
The Supervisor turned back again, looking up at the Emperor Star, his expression terrified.
The Emperor Star dimmed, deviating from Amethyst Place, this...
At some unknown time, snowflakes had started to fall, each one exquisite and crystalline.
