"This isn't the first time, can't the Empress get used to it"

Li Chen's words made Zhao Qinglan both ashamed and angry.

She could feel the hands behind her, that had been pressed against her waist and hips, growing increasingly bold.

With a jerk, Zhao Qinglan grabbed Li Chen's arm, intending to shake off the hand that was doing such evil.

But when Zhao Qinglan resisted with all his might, he found that in terms of both physique and strength, he was simply no match for the young and vigorous Li Chen.

She, in a fit of rage, pushed against Li Chen's chest with all her might. She wanted to run backward, but she tripped over a chair with one foot.

"Ah!"

Zhao Qinglan let out a cry of surprise, and her whole body uncontrollably fell backward.

Seeing this, Li Chen reacted swiftly. He grabbed Zhao Qinglan's slender waist in a flash, but saw her head heading towards the corner of the table. Without hesitation, Li Chen rolled to the ground with Zhao Qinglan in his arms.

The two embraced and spun in circles on the ground.

Zhao Qinglan only felt dizzy, her body held by Li Chen. Softly, she didn't seem to be injured.

But Zhao Qinglan felt a blush creep up her face, and to her surprise, Li Chen had taken the opportunity to kiss her crimson lips!

For a woman, kissing is a very significant thing.

Zhao Qinglan's eyes widened, staring fixedly at Li Chen's face just inches away from hers. She was completely dumbfounded.

No matter how intelligent and resourceful she was, after all her schemes and plans, she was still just a woman.

Her instincts left her mind blank, unable to react in any way.

Li Chen acted audaciously, brazenly prying open Zhao Qinglan's red lips. Seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he was determined to defile the empress, the revered mother of the nation.

The tip of his nose was filled with Zhao Qinglan's scent and her hot, panicked breaths. Li Chen was like a greedy hunter, constantly encroaching and taking everything he could from the prey beneath him.

Their lips met, and when Zhao Qinglan finally realized what was happening, she began to struggle violently.

Li Chen's body was like steel, imprisoning her tightly, leaving her nowhere to escape.

Struggling, her hairpin fell out and her hair scattered. Zhao Qinglan, with a flushed complexion, saw that she couldn't push Li Chen away no matter what, and instead, his actions became even more intense. Shame and anger filled her to the extreme, so with a firm resolve, she opened her mouth and bit down.

Li Chen, who was truly enjoying himself, never expected Zhao Qinglan to be so bold.

The searing pain on his tongue made him grunt, instinctively releasing Zhao Qinglan.

And seizing the opportunity, Zhao Qinglan scrambled to her feet and retreated several steps, panting as she gazed at Li Chen.

Li Chen slowly got up, feeling a salty, fishy taste in his mouth. He didn't need to look to know that Zhao Qinglan had bitten him and drawn blood.

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Li Chen said, “Is the Empress so eager to be mingled with my blood”

Zhao Qinglan's face was flushed, she didn't know if it was from the exhaustion of struggling just now, or from being embarrassed by Li Chen's words.

"You scoundrel, get out! Begone from my sight!"

"Should I just leave like this"

He pointed to the blood at the corner of his mouth and said with a playful tone, "The Prince went to pay respects to the Empress, but when he came out, his tongue was broken. If I said that I accidentally bit it myself, do you think anyone would believe me"

Zhao Qinglan trembled with anger, gritting her teeth and saying, "What do you want"

Li Chen approached step by step, while Zhao Qinglan retreated inch by inch.

Not until Zhao Qinglan was pressed against the corner of the table, with no room to retreat, did Li Chen whisper in her ear, "To marry the Crown Princess, we still need the Empress Dowager's imperial decree."

Zhao Qinglan bit her lip and said bitterly, "You schemed so much, just for this imperial decree"

Li Chen raised his hand, gently wrapping around Zhao Qinglan's snowy and slender neck. His fingers wound around a strand of loose black hair, looking at Zhao Qinglan and smiling: "It's not entirely true. I said outside the palace before, after several days apart, I...miss the Empress dearly."rrived within two zhang of Li Yinhu.Wang Fuyong saw that the Three Treasures completely ignored his life and death, determined to take action, which terrified him to the point of despair.While San Bao...
