In the study, He Heng closed the secret letter in his hand. Looking at the sky that had completely darkened, he ordered: "Come, light the lanterns and go to zhengyuan."
Ming He, who had been waiting at the door, motioned for the little taijian beside him to take the lantern. He personally took a beaded palace lantern and stood silently at the side, waiting for wang ye to move.
The study and zhengyuan were separated by a garden. He Heng walked to the edge of the garden and saw a faint figure standing next to the fake mountain. The figure was white and he couldn't see who it was, but he could faintly hear a female voice reciting a poem.
"When the wild goose returns, the moon fills the western tower. Flowers float by themselves, water flows by itself … … "
"Who's there?" He Heng expressionlessly looked at the figure. The dim candlelight caused a thread of light to appear in his eyes.
"Wang ye?!" The voice paused, appearing slightly panicked. A woman wearing a light-colored wide-sleeved robe with red eyes knelt in front of He Heng. There was only a white jade hairpin in her hair. Her slender figure knelt on the ground, appearing pitiful.
Ming He looked at the expressionless wang ye and asked: "Why is Yun Qing guniang here? The winter nights are cold, you have just recovered from your illness, you should wear more. "
He Heng's lips curled. He looked at the clothes that couldn't be considered thick on Yun Qing's body and walked around Yun Qing. He had thought it was interesting, but looking at her pitiful state, he suddenly felt it wasn't interesting. This wasn't as interesting as when she had pretended to be virtuous in the past. This virtuous and virtuous woman suddenly became flattering, which made people feel that it was boring.
Yun Qing watched as wang ye walked away. She gritted her teeth and said: "Wang ye."
He Heng turned to look at the woman still kneeling on the ground. He suddenly asked: "Do you still remember when ben wang wanted to take you as a tong fang, what you said?"
"Nu said, to have the one of my heart, to never part." Yun Qing raised her head and looked at He Heng, her eyes full of love.
"Then what are you doing now?" He Heng examined Yun Qing with interest from head to toe. In the end, his gaze landed on that white neck.
"Nu truly admires wang ye," Yun Qing's eyes flashed with tears, "If I knew it would come to this, nu would not have stayed in the wang fu."
"Pfft," He Heng raised an eyebrow and said to Ming He, "Tomorrow, remember to remind ben wang to promote this woman as a tong fang and get someone to send her back. It's so late, don't startle people." Finishing, he turned and walked in the direction of zhengyuan, not even looking at Yun Qing who was kneeling on the ground.
Ming He smiled and glanced at Yun Qing, "Nucai remembers." Finishing, he followed.
After everyone had left, Yun Qing finally stood and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. She stared wide-eyed at the direction wang ye had left in, her eyes brightening like never before.
He Heng stepped into zhengyuan. Without waiting for the servants to announce his arrival, he directly entered Qu Qing Ju's room. As he entered, he saw Qu Qing Ju holding a jade gourd pendant in her hand. She was looking at it under the light. Her eyes had a calmness he had never seen before, as though time had stopped in her gaze.
He knew that this jade gourd had been left behind by wang fei's birth mother, Tian shi. These days, wang fei had been wearing it on her body. Seeing her like this, he assumed that she was missing her birth mother and asked: "Wang fei, why haven't you gone to sleep?"
"Wang ye has come?" Qu Qing Ju hung the jade gourd back on her neck. She stood and walked in front of He Heng. She looked at the familiar palace maids and taijian waiting outside the door. She smiled and remarked, "It's so late today, I thought wang ye wouldn't come."
"The night is long. Without wang fei by my side, ben wang doesn't have the heart to sleep," He Heng came forward and pulled the other into his arms. He bent his head to kiss Qu Qing Ju's forehead, "Come, help me bathe and change."
Steam floated in the large bathtub. There were flower petals scattered on the water. Qu Qing Ju was brought into the tub by He Heng. The two faced each other naked, experiencing what it meant to touch skin to skin in the bathtub.
He Heng's hand brushed across Qu Qing Ju's white breasts, his index finger slightly hooking around that small jade gourd. He gave a low laugh as he remarked: "Qing Ju like this, it's really hard to resist," Finishing, he bent down and sucked on that moist lips. He didn't like kissing women, but to be this close to wang fei, he felt that there was some flavor.
Taking the opportunity to sit on He Heng's bent legs, Qu Qing Ju reached out to wrap her arms around He Heng, pressing her soft breasts into He Heng's embrace. A head of loose black hair floated in the water, contrasting with the bright flower petals. It was unspeakably enchanting.
A warm palm slid across her smooth back, slowly moving down, igniting a burning fire.
After a round of pleasure, both of them felt very satisfied. He Heng casually put on an inner garment and bent down to carry Qu Qing Ju out of the slightly cold water. He put her on the bed and personally took a handkerchief to dry her hair.
When a man was satisfied, he would always be especially gentle. This trait was well demonstrated by Duan Wang He Heng.
Qu Qing Ju used the inner garment to wrap around her body, allowing He Heng's attentive performance. She gave a yawn and asked: "Why did wang ye come so late today?"
"Took care of some matters and came late," He Heng saw that his hair was pretty much dried and changed a handkerchief to carelessly dry himself. The two hugged each other as they sat on the bed. Before waiting for their hair to dry, they started to chat about some small matters.
"I heard that you took care of a few stewards who did bad things?" He Heng suddenly spoke, "Those people really weren't right. You were too kind to them. That kind of people should just be beaten to death."
"How can a human life be so worthless," Qu Qing Ju smiled, "I see that they are very honest in their work. A fall into the pit, a gain in their wit. If they can work well in the future, it will be a good deed for the wang fu."
"Those servants that offended their superiors, you don't have to be softhearted," He Heng was very familiar with how Qu Qing Ju handled the affairs of houyuan. He didn't feel there was anything wrong. To be able to manage houyuan and make people feel grateful, that was skill. He, He Heng, wanted a wang fei like this.
"If someone dies, it's not good for our Duan Wang Fu," Qu Qing Ju understood He Heng's intentions and said, "This is fine."
Hearing this, He Heng didn't continue the topic. He turned to the jade gourd on Qu Qing Ju's neck: "This jade gourd is exquisite and cute."
Hearing this, Qu Qing Ju rubbed the jade gourd, her smile fainter: "This was left behind by qie's mother when she was alive. It had always been guarded by stepmother. In the beginning, qie had tried all kinds of methods but couldn't take it back from stepmother. Now that qie has become Duan Wang Fei, she has eagerly delivered it." These words flattered He Heng and stabbed Liang shi twice. Qu Qing Ju didn't feel any pressure at all.
"This Liang shi's personality is vicious," He Heng's face darkened as he said, "Now that I'm protecting you, let's see if she dares to be so arrogant. In the past, it was fortunate that jiujiu protected you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have such a good wife."
Calling the Tian Family jiujiu, calling the Duke of Chang De Gong ye. Even though he was a member of the Imperial Family and it wasn't wrong to call him whatever he wanted, but this double standard was too obvious.
"Jiujiu and jiumu have always protected qie. Otherwise, qie wouldn't have that one hundred and twenty catties of dowry after marrying into the wang fu. And those land deeds and stores, they were all left to me by my mother and what jiumu gave me on the day she added to the dowry," Qu Qing Ju gave a light laugh, "Qie is both unfortunate and fortunate. At least, I have a jiujiu that wholeheartedly protects qie."
"Jiujiu is benevolent," He Heng smiled as he pulled the other into his embrace, "Now that you are the mistress of the wang fu, if you have nothing to do, you can invite jiumu to the fu for a walk. I also want to see my two biao di."
"If wang ye doesn't dislike jiujiu's family, qie will definitely have biao di pay a visit to you in the future." Qu Qing Ju raised her head to look at Duan Wang, her smile like a flower, as though she was very happy that He Heng was close to her jiujiu.
"We are all brothers, there's no need to pay a visit," He Heng was very satisfied with the Xiang Qing Marquis Fu. The family style was strict, their conduct was courteous. This kind of family didn't fall from the nobility. So he was very willing to call the Marquis of Xiang Qing jiujiu.
Qu Qing Ju's smile didn't change as she heard this: "They wouldn't dare to call wang ye brothers. Wang ye doesn't know, qie's two didi study all day and are very pedantic. Every day, they talk about Heaven, Earth, Ruler, Family and Teacher. For them to ignore your status, it's harder than for them not to study."
"This is a family that knows etiquette," He Heng could hear the closeness Qu Qing Ju had towards the Tian Family. He patted her back as he said, "In the future, if you have any contact with the Tian Family, you can make the decision. We are all relatives, you don't have to be so restrained."
Qu Qing Ju naturally agreed. As to what to do, that was her business. With the Tian Family's style, they were naturally loyal to the Emperor. She didn't dare to be interested in what He Heng thought, but she didn't want the Tian Family to be drawn into this matter.
She, Qu Qing Ju, wasn't a good person, but she knew to repay kindness with kindness, and to complain with resentment. She had taken over this body for no reason, so she had to be grateful.
When she woke up the next morning, she saw off He Heng who was going to court. Qu Qing Ju slept for a while before she got up to wash and eat breakfast. Before she finished eating, she heard a strange matter.
"You are saying that wang ye wants to take Yun Qing guniang as a tongfang?" She wiped her hands and looked at Xiao Gan Zi. She said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "If that's the case, then bestow a pair of jade bracelets to Yun Qing as my congratulations."
"Wang fei is kind. Just a tongfang, it's not worth your reward," Xiao Gan Zi smiled as he replied, "But last night, Yun Qing was pestering wang ye in the garden. Wang ye didn't have the patience to deal with her so he casually said to take her into his room. But it was just one sentence and nothing else was bestowed."
"Pestering wang ye?" Qu Qing Ju raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. No wonder she had come up late last night. It was because she had been hooked by a beauty.
Xiao Gan Zi saw wang fei's indifferent smile and thought that wang fei didn't take the matter to heart. Reassured, he continued: "That's right. People of poor birth, they only know those tricks. Nucai is afraid of polluting wang fei's ears."
"It's rare that Xiao Gan Zi gonggong can explain the cause and effect," Qu Qing Ju smiled as she commented, "There are many things to do in the fu these days. Help me look over the purchasing matters, so that the stewards don't slip up."
"Nucai will watch carefully," Xiao Gan Zi's heart leapt. Purchasing was a great source of profit. Wang fei had said so, the stewards responsible for purchasing, wouldn't they all carefully flatter him?
As expected, in the future, currying favor with wang fei was the best plan. He wouldn't compare to Qian Chang Xin, Ming He and the others. To be able to stand out in front of wang fei, wasn't that his ability?
