The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Chapter 688 Trouble

three days later

A funeral bell sounded from the direction of the imperial palace. Yan Shu immediately stood up and walked to the yard. Madam Su also came out with the support of Su Tang.

Madam Su said, "I'm afraid it's your Majesty..."

Yan Shu raised his head and looked towards the direction of the imperial city. From here he could vaguely see the Seven Star Pavilion in the imperial palace. The towering seven-story pavilion was the tallest building in the city of Bianjing. After the death of every emperor, the funeral bell on the Seven Star Pavilion would be rung.

The death knell has rung, it seems the old emperor is really dead. I wonder how Jiang Ci is doing?

Soon, Yingqi brought back news from the palace.

The Zhao family was wiped out. Except for Ye Lanxuan who was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice, the rest of the rebels were executed on the same day. After the old emperor died, Jiang Ci naturally ascended the throne and became the new emperor.

Now it was a time of national mourning, and the new emperor was busy with the old emperor's funeral and had to stabilize the political situation. He could not move away for the time being, so he sent someone to bring Yan Shu into the palace.

At the same time, Prime Minister Su also sent people to pick up Madam Su and the others to take them back home. After Yan Shu said goodbye to the women of the Su family, he took a carriage and headed towards the imperial city.

She sat in the car, silently looking at the scene on the street. There were few people walking on the street. Every household hung a white spirit flag, and the people walking around also tied white mourning cloth around their waists to show their mourning.

After the emperor's death, all civil and military officials and the common people in the city had to mourn for 27 days, and everyone had to wear plain clothes. When Yan Shu went out, he specially picked a white plain long skirt. He only inserted a white jade hairpin and a white velvet flower in his long hair. His outfit was as plain as it could be.

Arriving at the entrance of the imperial palace, Yan Shu looked at the towering palace hall, with its golden glazed tiles shining with golden light, and felt a bit complicated.

When she entered the palace before, she was very cautious and had to be on guard at all times. She always felt that the palace was like a huge cage that trapped people without freedom. But today, when she thought that the new emperor was the man she lived with day and night, she suddenly felt as if she was in another world.

When they arrived outside the Chongzheng Hall, Ying Si, who was guarding the door, immediately stepped forward.

"I have met Miss Yan."

"Jiang...where is His Majesty?"

Ying Si smiled and said, "His Majesty is inside. His Majesty has instructed you to go in directly if you come."

Yan Shu nodded and walked straight into the Chongzheng Hall. The huge hall was empty, so she walked towards the inner hall curiously.

As soon as I arrived at the side hall, I heard Jiang Ci's voice.

"Jiaojiao is here."

Yan Shu glanced at the partition screen not far away, and knowing that Jiang Ci was taking a bath, she walked straight over.

Behind the screen was a large bathtub. A familiar figure could be vaguely seen in the mist, sitting in the bathtub. His eyes were tightly closed, and his handsome face showed a hint of fatigue.

Jiang Ci noticed that Yan Shu had not moved, so he slowly opened his eyes and looked towards her.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yan Shu smiled and said, "I'm thinking about how to address you now."

Jiang Ci stared at her in silence for a moment, then swam to her, stretched out his big hand and pulled Yan Shu into the bathtub.

"Pfft!"

Huge splashes of water appeared, and Yan Shu was splashed in the face by the warm water droplets. Her white dress was instantly soaked, and her beautiful figure was looming in the misty water vapor.

Jiang Ci's cold eyes became deeper and deeper, and the hand on her waist moved slowly. Yan Shu trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to step back, but was pulled back into someone's arms.

"Jiaojiao, what do you want to call me?" His lips gently brushed her cheek, a trace of heat passed across her sensitive earlobe, and her small ear turned visibly red.

He was blatantly seducing her...

Yan Shu calmed himself down and looked up to meet Jiang Ci's smiling gaze.

"Your Majesty?" Jiang Ci is now the new emperor, so he should be given the proper respectful title.

The big hand on the waist pinched, expressing the owner's dissatisfaction.

Yan Shu frowned, and it seemed that he was not satisfied with this title: "Then should I still call you Ah Ci as before?"

Jiang Ci lowered his head and nibbled her delicate neck a few times. A faint blush instantly appeared on her snow-white skin. He looked at her admiringly for a while, rubbing his slightly rough thumb back and forth on the blush, stroking the mark he left.

The deep voice whispered in her ear with seduction: "I would rather hear Jiaojiao call me husband."

She whispered back, "It's not appropriate to call us that before we get married..."

Jiang Ci's eyes turned colder, and he held her face in his hands: "You are all mine now, do you want to marry someone else?"

Yan Shu:......

"Okay, now that we are in a period of national mourning, let's not talk about the wedding first. Can you tell me what has happened in the palace in the past few days? How are the Zhao family and the third prince doing now?"

Jiang Ci stared at Yan Shu silently, and Yuan An's last words suddenly popped up in his mind.

What is this? It's just a lie to deceive him. He wants to be with the little fox forever.

Noticing that there was something wrong with Jiang Ci's aura, Yan Shu asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Have you been overworked in handling these matters these days?"

Meeting Yan Shu's concerned gaze, Jiang Ci's heart trembled and he quickly leaned over and kissed her lips.

The unexpected kiss made Yan Shu a little dazed. The slightly cool tip of his tongue eagerly invaded her mouth, causing her to moan involuntarily. This soft voice was like an aphrodisiac, making the man in front of him even more crazy.

Jiang Ci hugged her slender waist, kissed her delicate neck, and moved slowly down...

After having sex with her, he seemed to want to be closer to her even more. Only when he possessed her completely could he suppress the restlessness in his heart.

After a long time, Yan Shu was carried back to the couch in the bedroom by Jiang Ci, feeling weak all over. She had been exhausted and soon fell asleep on the bed. Jiang Ci took a dry towel and carefully wrung out her long hair, gently combing it smooth. Looking at the red marks on her body, thinking that these were all his achievements, he kissed her lips with a satisfied look on his face.

"Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring some food over."

Yan Shu closed her eyes and nodded in a daze. She was taken to the palace very early in the morning and had no time to eat. After she arrived, she was tormented by someone for a long time. Now she was hungry and tired.

"Lie down for a while. I'll wake you up when the meal is served."

Jiang Ci waited until Yan Shu fell asleep before getting up, putting on his clothes and leaving Chongzheng Hall, and ordered the eunuch guarding outside to serve the meal.

Half an hour later, the meal was delivered to the hall.

Jiang Ci dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs who were guarding nearby, turned around and went back to the bedroom. He saw the person on the bed sleeping soundly. She was leaning on a brocade pillow, with her long black hair draped in front of her like soft clouds. There was a sense of tranquility between her eyebrows as she slept.
