"Huan'er."
The man pressed Yi Huan on the couch and caressed her cheek again and again.
His palms were clean and hot, and Yi Huan's body couldn't help but start to tremble slightly with excitement. The roots of his ears turned red, and the red glow spread all the way to his cheeks.
Yi Huan's eyelashes fluttered, her little hand pressed against the man's chest, and her tone was timid: "Who are you?"
The man has a handsome appearance, with long eyebrows slanting into his temples, and beneath them are a pair of extremely deep eyes.
But no matter how handsome he is, Yi Huan still doesn't recognize him.
This has been Yi Huan's dream about this strange man for five consecutive days.
"How about making peace with Lin Qingpei?"
The man's dark pupils were flashing with beating desire, like clusters of small flames.
Lin Qingpei is Yi Huan's husband. Yi Huan shook his head, tears looming in the corners of his eyes, "No..."
The man seemed to be irritated by her attitude. He held her chin and kissed her with calm eyes.
The kiss was fierce, prying open the gap between her lips, possessing it unscrupulously, tasting every part of her little mouth.
Yi Huan was breathless from his kiss. He pushed her with her little hands to no avail, and her body gradually softened.
The man's palm slid down and caressed her body inch by inch. His eyes stared at her like a wolf, as if he wanted to devour her.
Yi Huan was anxious and scared. She was already a woman, how could she let others manipulate her?
There was a hint of ferocity in his wet eyes, like a small animal whose eyes were forced to turn red. He raised his palm and slapped the man with all his strength.
…
Yi Huan woke up from his dream panting, his head covered with sweat.
She had been dreaming about the strange man for several days. Even Yi Huan herself found it strange. She was certain that she had never seen that man before.
Yi Huan was originally a noble girl. She followed the rules and never went out of her way.
This dream made her conscience extremely uneasy.
How could she dream about men? She was still making out with him in her dream. Could it be because she had been alone in an empty house for a whole year since marrying Lin Qingpei?
A year ago, Yi Huan's father and brother died in battle at Changmen Pass. Before his death, Yi Huan was entrusted to Lin Qingpei, who was a fifth-rank official at the time. General Yi had worked with Lin Qingpei and thought he understood him. Yi Huan felt that Lin Qingpei was a person he could trust for life and hoped that he could protect Yi Huan.
Lin Qingpei readily agreed, and when General Yi heard his personal agreement, he closed his eyes in relief.
Unexpectedly, on the day of their wedding, Lin Qingpei took a concubine on the same day. That concubine was Lin Qingpei's private concubine in the village, and she was the one who was the most important to him.
Lin Qingpei only married her for the Yi family's military power.
Sure enough, in just one year, Lin Qingpei took over the post of General Yi Lao Zhongwu and rose to prominence, and the military power of the Yi family fell into his hands.
The outside world knows that Lin Qingpei will be promoted in the future, and he has a bright future.
But all of this was thanks to the Yi family.
On the wedding night, Lin Qingpei did not set foot in their wedding room, but went to his concubine's room.
After a year of marriage, Lin Qingpei only kept her as a decoration in the house. Although Yi Huan was his wife, he did not give her any dignity, and the power of running the house was still in the hands of his sweetheart.
Lin Qingpei once wanted to treat that concubine as an equal wife. If this was true, Yi Huan would become the laughing stock of the entire capital. It was Yi Huan who held her father's memorial tablet and forced her to do so, so Lin Qingpei gave up this idea. .
This marriage was arranged for Yi Huan by her father. No matter how dissatisfied Yi Huan was, she could only endure it.
A woman like her would not dare to reconcile, and the other members of the Yi family would not allow her to reconcile. They were still waiting to suck Lin Qingpei's blood. After General Yi's death, the Yi family was in dire straits. , the only option is to hold Lin Qingpei tightly.
Yi Huan smiled bitterly and smoothed the hair on his temples: "Father, when you promised me to Lin Qingpei, did you expect that it would turn out like this?"
Her father had good intentions, but he pushed her into the pit of fire.
The maid heard the commotion and walked in, wanting to serve Yi Huan and get up.
Seeing her sweating, Taoxin asked: "Madam, are you having nightmares again?"
Just as Yi Huan was about to say something, he heard the sound of footsteps. Immediately, a man came in wearing a scarlet official uniform. His body was stained with moisture from the outside. As soon as he walked in, he also felt the coldness of early spring. Come in.
Lin Qingpei said: "Yi Huan, there is a banquet in the Hua Chao Festival Palace today. You will come with me in the evening."
A concubine like Gu Chuxue was not qualified to go to the palace banquet. He didn't wait for her answer, he just gave the order.
Yi Huan took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped his face, and responded gently: "Okay."
Lin Qingpei couldn't help but look at her twice. She looked like she had just woken up, with a faint blush on her cheeks and a flash of color at the end of her eyes. She no longer looked as dull as usual, like early spring. The flower bones are about to bloom.
Lin Qingpei's voice couldn't help but soften, and he said: "I will have the clothes delivered to you later. They are excellent Suzhou embroidery."
Perhaps Lin Qingpei's stern expression softened as he felt a little indebted to her.
"good."
"Huan'er, you can stay here for free..." The soft and obedient Yi Huan made him feel soft. He thought that it would be ridiculous not to consummate the marriage for a year, and it would not be nice to spread the word. After all, she was his wife, and he did borrow Yi Lao's money. General's power.
Lin Qingpei thought that if she had time to wait, she would consummate the relationship with her at a time.
I was about to talk to her about this.
Yi Huan raised his eyes and interrupted him with a warm voice: "Mr. Lang, it's time to go to court."
Lin Qingpei swallowed her words and responded: "Well, you have a good rest. I heard that you have been dreaming a lot recently. If you feel unwell, remember to call the doctor."
Yi Huan suspected that Lin Qingpei actually cared about her because the sun was rising in the west today.
After Lin Qingpei left, Tao Xin said happily: "Madam, the second master still cares about you. Only you are qualified to go to the palace banquet with the second master. You are always the principal wife, which is different from the concubine."
Yi Huan was noncommittal.
As long as she firmly holds the position of the second wife of the Lin family, Gu Chuxue will never be able to truly take the position for a day.
*
In the Zichen Palace.
Jin Yuan woke up, and the eunuch Zhang Desheng walked in with the light on, bowed and asked: "Your Majesty, would you like this old slave to help you get up?"
Jin Yuan sat up, with waterfalls of black hair draped over his shoulders. Under the bright yellow clothes, his tight muscle lines were faintly exposed.
The man narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "No need."
This was the fifth day after he was reborn, and it was also the fifth day he had a dream about Yi Huan. In the dream, he hugged her and kissed her, forcing her to make peace with Lin Qingpei, but she was always unwilling.
There was hidden anger in Jin Yuan's dark eyes.
In the previous life, officials united with Bei Mo to rebel and launched a palace coup, forcing Jin Yuan to almost die in Xingqing Palace. It was Yi Huan who saved him. At that time, Yi Huan had been disfigured and had a terrible scar on his face. Became Lin Qingpei's second cousin.
Jin Yuan never expected that he would be rescued by a little woman in the end, and he asked her why.
Yi Huan smoothed the hair around her ears, with a slight smile on her lips, and said softly: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the Hua Chao Banquet in the eleventh year of Yuanchun? That day I hid beside Mingxin Lake and cried. You were the first A person who handed me the handkerchief also told me that if my life was not as good as I wanted, I could make peace with Lin Qingpei and inherit my father and brother's legacy. There was a female general in the previous dynasty, Jiang Shuyun, and if others could do what I did, Yi Huan could do it."
She smiled very softly and said, "You are the first person to say these words to me. If I had known that I would end up like this, I would have listened to you and tried my best to make peace with Lin Qingpei. It’s not as bad as it is now.”
"But I was young at that time, how could I have the courage to divorce? I was afraid of becoming a laughing stock in the capital, so I clung to the position of the second wife of the Lin family. Only now do I know that in the eyes of outsiders, no matter whether I am The second wife of the Lin family is a joke to me."
With tears in her eyes, she said: "Your Majesty, please leave quickly, I will lure them away for you."
At that time, Jin Yuan looked at this weak woman and swore that if there was an afterlife, he would shelter her from wind and rain and protect her for the rest of her life.
After Jin Yuan died, he didn't expect that he would actually return to the eleventh year of Yuanchun.
But in the end he was still a step too late, she had become another man's wife.
Even so, Jin Yuan was not willing to give up, but every time he dreamed about it at midnight, he would encourage her to reconcile. He knew that it was just a dream, so in the dream he would go wild, flirting with her in every possible way, watching her shyly kissing him. There was a slight tremor in my arms.
Jin Yuan said: "For tonight's palace banquet, Lin Qingpei's position will be moved forward."
