Chapter 62
Bai Shen Hong
Emperor Huizhong
HougongLittle Fox was pure torment in Shen Hong's thoughts and sleep. And what was tolerable about it was that, unlike with Elora, he could do something to rectify the matter.
"Where is her sick maid?" he inquired, because he was in want to see her. Actually he desired to see her. Maybe it could ease his heart and also put his thoughts to rest.
One palace maid looked down shyly. This was probably the only time she would ever get to speak to the emperor or be addressed by him. "Li Lian is resting in Grand Consort Shu's bed chambers, Your Majesty."
Little Fox's real name was Li Lian? Elora was his lotus. Lian means lotus. And they looked similar. Perhaps what attracted him to Little Fox was their similarity. It was not her he desired then, but Elora he missed.
He walked into the quarters with his hand up for his entourage not to follow behind. This irritated Eunuch Nam who wanted to be in all places the emperor was to freely serve his needs, but Shen Hong preferred privacy with Little Fox. Only Luo Meng walked in and led him to where Little Fox was since he had been there before.
Grand Consort Shu's quarters were a maze of different chambers. He admired the different paintings that his mother had along the passageway walls. They were of flowers and trees drawn to captivate the admirer.
Before Shen Hong entered, he instructed Luo Meng to help remove his imperial robes, leaving him in white silky inner robes. It was not yet time for Little Fox to find out that he was the emperor. He enjoyed her ignorance of this fact because it allowed her rowdy behavior. Without doubt, she wouldn't act like that if she knew that he was the revered emperor of Nevoria.
Luo Meng stood outside the chamber. From working for him for years, he knew where he was not wanted.
"Is everything alright?" Shen Hong observed his shadowing guard who seemed edgy.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Luo Meng flatly replied.
The chamber was the definition of Grand Consort Shu's character, red and white. She was hot to a specific few and cold to the rest.
Her chamber was simply a large bed, wooden cabinets on each side of the bed with books on top and chairs by the cabinet. All that did not matter except for the bed that held his desire. His Little Fox.
Shen Hong smiled, quite baffled that his mother let a palace maid sleep with her. If it was heard of, she would be looked down on all the more. What was special about Little Fox that she was willing to risk her reputation?
Above the bed, the wall had a huge painting of him sitting on his huge throne, and dominating. It was the painting which resembled his appearance when he got crowned as emperor. It was beautiful and his chest warmed, though it would be breathtaking if his face was on it. The painting showed his backside, hands pinned on his back and him gazing through the window.
The place was nicely lit with sunshine that beamed on Little Fox's pale skin. The emotions were not easily hidden on her striking face. Her pain was evident in the crease of her lovely brow and the down-curve of her whitening lips. There were no bruises that one would not believe that she had been roughed up a few weeks ago. She was marvelous, a sleeping beauty indeed.
"Ple.. please, let me go." He heard the hushed whisper coming from her soft tender lips. Little Fox was under the white covers of Grand Consort Shu's bed.
Naughty girl. She was dreaming of him touching her and worshipping her body. He smirked at the possibility of him not being the only one going insane with infatuation.
