A Mistaken Marriage Match: Mysteries in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 31: This Is Considered As Seduction

The small booklet in his hands was slowly brought down and behind it was a pair of deep black eyes. It was slightly amused like a black panther watching its prey and it was of no hurry to devour it but the prey absolutely have no escape. Xiao Yu could not help but to have goosebumps everywhere but that "prey" is taking a leisurely pace towards the person who was seated on a higher level.

Walking to the front of the large table, Qing Feng stop her steps and gave a proper bow, "Chenqie greets the Emperor."

Chenqie? The sudden obedience and colloquialism made Yan Hong Tian surprised. After what happened yesterday, he thought that what she did was to vent her anger and since he was in a good mood today, he could play with her but he did not think that she has some other tricks up her sleeves? Holding a hand towards her, Yan Hong Tian softly said, "Come here."

Qing Feng got up and magnanimously placed her hand onto Yan Hong Tian's palm. By allowing his hands to hold her, Qing Feng knows that Yan Hong Tian's eyes was observing her. Leaning lightly on the throne, she deliberately did not look into his eyes and set her sight onto the study table until her sight landed on a half-finished tea. She gently breathed in before smiling, "Qishan's jasmine accompanied with early spring's green tea. The Emperor do have a lot of good things here."

It was rare that Yan Hong Tian has such patience like today. With one hand overbearingly embraced her, he looked at the astonished Xiao Yu and laughed, "Xiao Yu, it seems that you have met your soul mate."

Even though the tea was taken care of by the palace maids and was still warm thus there was nothing strange about being able to smell the tea, but being able to know the mixture of tea by merely looking and smelling was indeed not easy. The curious thing was that she was even able to tell the origin of the tea and when was it picked. Xiao Yu felt some sense of excitement and wanted to see how much knowledge she has and thus turned around to pour a cup of tea and served it to Qing Feng, smilingly, "May your Ladyship try this servant's handiwork."

Qing Feng took the tea cup and took a light sip. Facing Xiao Yu's awaiting eyes, she replied, "Spring water is from Spring Equinox and tea is picked during the Summer Solstice. It is indeed a good tea."

She... Only took a sip but could say everything exactly as it is? Xiao Yu felt amazed and also felt some sort of admiration.

The female beside him lowered her head to drink the tea with a leisurely look. She seemed to have forgotten her "presumptuous" action she did this morning. The hand which was ringed around Qing Feng's waist tightened and Yan Hong Tian coldly said, "You sure have a lot of guts."

After finishing the tea in her hands, Qing Feng then only slowly raised her head and looked into Yan Hong Tian's eyes for the first time after entering the Imperial Study. Qing Feng's eyebrow slightly furrowed but her lips raise, "Not sure to which issue is the Emperor referring to?" There were indeed too many gutsy things that she did.

She even put up a show of fake alarm that Yan Hong Tian felt amused but he did not show it on his face, "You uprooted the peonies?"

"Yes." Qing Feng nodded her head.

"Whatever for?"

"I don't like it." The tea was finished and Qing Feng wanted to place the cup back on the table but her waist was enveloped by someone very tightly. Her pupil moved a little and Qing Feng place the empty cup from her hand to Yan Hong Tian's hand. She sat on the armrest of the throne and laughed, "Moreover... If it is not so, how would the Emperor summon me?"

There was never one who dared to sit on his dragon seat. Even the most favoured Imperial Concubine Shu and Imperial Concubine Hui also didn't dare, let alone place an empty cup onto his hand. She indeed have a lot of guts. Comparing the obvious hatred that she previously had, Yan Hong Tian rather like how she is now. She seems to have found the method of surviving in the Palace. Gently pinching her chin, Yan Hong Tian laughed, "You wanted to see Zhen?"
