   Yan Zhaozhao was horrified, "You are crazy!" She struggled more violently, but did not dare to make too much noise, lest someone hear the noise and come to see the two of them entangled here. Even if she jumped into the lake, she would not be able to defend herself. "Let me go, Xie Ci Yan--"

  Hearing her calling his name, Xie Ci Yan paused, and finally let her go.

  Yan Zhaozhao's face turned red, and she was frightened and panicked. She looked around to see if there was anyone lurking nearby and secretly watching all this. Then, she lowered her voice and spoke very softly, "The emperor is still sitting on the dragon throne, how can you say such treasonous words!"

  If his words were heard by someone and passed to the emperor, it would be like handing a sword to the emperor, giving him a reason to kill the regent to stop the gossip.

  "So what if it's treason? I, Xie Ci Yan, have done many treasonous things. And you are also the treason that I want to do!" Xie Ci Yan didn't know what happened to him. After seeing her, he couldn't help but reveal the desire to possess her that he should have hidden deep in his heart. It was like panic, and it was like uneasiness. He always felt that Yan Zhaozhao was like a wisp of wind that he couldn't catch. As long as she wanted, she

  could drift to a place where he could never find her again. That's why he wanted to desperately hold this wisp of wind in his palm and not let her disappear.

  "Xie Ci Yan." Yan Zhaozhao stared at Xie Ci Yan's eyes, and the bottom of her eyes was like a bottomless lake, without even a ripple. "Are you happy with me?"

  Xie Ci Yan didn't expect her to ask so bluntly. He was stunned for a moment. When he was about to answer, Yan Zhaozhao spoke first and interrupted him.

  "What do you like about me?" She stroked her face gently, and smiled lightly, making people intoxicated. "Do you like my face or my figure?"

   The arc of Yan Zhaozhao's mouth was slightly raised with a hint of sarcasm, "Do you really like me? Look, the emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem. Which concubine did he not favor because of her beauty? Just like the newly promoted Concubine Yan, she is both beautiful and charming, and her bed skills are even more amazing. The emperor also doted on her at that time and favored her. But no matter how beautiful the skin is, it will decay one day. Concubine Yan has tried her best to regain her favor today, but how long can such favor last?"

  "One day? One month? Or a year?" She tapped her fingertips on Xie Ciyan's chest, "How long can you have me here?"

  In Yan Zhaozhao's view, all crows are black, and all men in the world are unfaithful. Her father is, and so is her nominal husband. Although she was a legitimate daughter, she had countless concubines in her family. Since she was a child, she had seen her father lingering in the rooms of various concubines, and she always saw her mother hiding in the room crying secretly. In order to keep her father's heart, her mother always endured and gave in to him again and again, but she still did not get any sympathy from her father, but became more and more demanding.

  And she was just a chess piece sacrificed by her mother to please her father.

  Needless to say, the emperor was even more romantic than her father. When she was at home, her mother taught her that even if she used all means, even if she had to fight and rob, she had to keep her husband's heart firmly in her hands, so that she would have hope and happiness in the second half of her life. At

  that time, she felt that something was wrong, but she was still ignorant and difficult to tell. After entering the palace, she saw the concubines around the emperor fighting for the favor of a man. They were so hideous that they would not hesitate to frame and frame others, and even do inhumane things to win the love of a man. At that moment, Yan Zhaozhao suddenly felt horrible.

  She didn't want to become as horrible as those women, and she didn't want to wait for a man's mercy like her mother. She wanted the man to love her not just for her body, but to hold his love in his palm and give it to her. Otherwise, she would rather not have it.

  The love that is fought for is no longer pure love.

  Or perhaps, there is no long-lasting and pure love in this world.

  With Xie Ciyan's talent, he will one day ascend to the position that everyone admires. By then, will he still like her? Even if he likes her, even if he takes her as a concubine despite the opposition of the ministers, there are three thousand beauties in the harem, and she will be just one of the women in his harem. How long will she have to wait for him to look back, and what is the difference between her and those women in the harem by then?

  "If the Regent wants to achieve something, entanglement with me will only taint your bright future." Her eyes were dim and fleeting, but the smile on her lips became more charming. "Isn't it good to set all the wrong relationships right and live well?"

  Yan Zhaozhao took a step back, bowed to him, lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him, as if she could completely erase the man in front of her from her mind. "It's late at night, I should go back to rest, please go, Regent." After she

  finished speaking, she didn't even give Xie Ci Yan a chance to say a word, and turned around and left the deck.

  Seeing her turn around and leave, Xie Ci Yan subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch her, but his outstretched palm stayed in the air, his fingertips clenched slightly, and finally clenched into a fist and fell down.

  That's it.

  She has made up her mind, so what if he forced her to stay?

  Confess her feelings to her and tell Yan Zhaozhao that he doesn't just like her appearance?

  Will she believe it?

  No, she won't.

  She was in the harem, how could she believe that there was true love that lasted from one person to another in this world. Not to mention Yan Zhaozhao, even he himself did not believe that there was any immortal love in this world.

  If it was before, when Yan Zhaozhao had not come to him, he could still control his desires, not look at her and not eavesdrop on everything about her. But everything changed on the day she stepped into Jinyuan. How could he get his heart back on track after being disturbed by her fingertips? How could he treat the person who was already in his heart as if he had never appeared.

  Without her, how could he be at peace.

  Xie Ciyan looked at her gradually receding back to his back, and whispered softly, as if answering and talking to himself. "Not good." He raised a smile, his eyes full of determination to win. "You provoked me first, how can you just leave when you say so."

  Since she didn't believe that he had her in his heart, he would prove to Yan Zhaozhao with his actions that he, Xie Ciyan, was different from the person she thought of in her heart, and he was not only attracted by her skin and figure.

  How could Yan Zhaozhao know that his feelings for her did not start after she entered the palace, but even earlier. It was just that she did not recognize him that day, but he remembered this person in his heart.

  Since then, that stunning figure could no longer be erased, even forgotten.
