Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart - Chapter 538
Chapter 538: Don’t Spoil Him
Long Yang’s head hurt a little at the sight of her confident expression.
Was she so sure that he would not go and find other women?
However, there was no denying that she was feeling unwell, so he did not say anything more.
He was afraid that he would not be able to restrain himself and end up hurting her again.
His gaze fell on the girl’s lovely face, and he sighed to himself.
This girl was young but extremely capable of enchanting him. Since the moment he touched her, he could not quit his addiction to her.
“Alright, then I’ll allow you to sleep alone tonight, as you requested.”
Lu Liangwei immediately curtsied to him. “Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Long Yang reached out and took her into his arms. He was always helpless when it came to her.
Long Qingzhi sat in the main hall with Long Xiao while holding Wanyan Zhi, and after a while, the Emperor and Empress finally strolled in.
Seeing the two of them, Long Qingzhi gave them a look-over silently.
As an experienced person, she could naturally tell that Lu Liangwei appeared different from yesterday.
Noticing the odd way she was walking, she quickly came to a realization.
It seemed that her brother, who had been abstinent for many years, had not gone easy on his young Empress last night.
How terrible the man was at taking care of her!
Long Qingzhi got up, walked up to them, and took Lu Liangwei’s hand affectionately. “Your Highness, I hope you don’t mind our tardiness.”
Lu Liangwei shook her head. “It’s alright.”
After helping her to the main seat, Long Qingzhi finally released her hand. Then, she leaned over and whispered in Lu Liangwei’s ear, “Men are always greedy. It’s your first time receiving the Emperor’s favor; you shouldn’t spoil him too much on certain things.”
Lu Liangwei did not expect that she would suddenly bring up this topic, and her face immediately started to burn. Fortunately, she was always composed and did not show any unusualness in her countenance.
When she met Long Qingzhi’s concerned gaze, she felt a warmth in her heart and she nodded in reply. “Thank you, Royal Sister. I understand.”
“Mm.” Seeing the girl sitting there meekly, her figure so endearingly petite, Long Qingzhi felt the urge to reach out and stroke her head.
If not for her poor health, her daughter would have been around her age too.
During her first few years in Danjue, as she was not accustomed to the food and weather, she fell ill several times and ended up compromising her health.
Before giving birth to Zhi’er, she had a few miscarriages. One of her pregnancies had already reached the six to seven-month stage, but she eventually failed to deliver the child due to her poor health.
That child was said to be a baby girl.
Every time she recalled the poor child, her heart would ache.
If not for this pitiful body of hers, she would never have separated from those children.
She sighed softly.
Lu Liangwei heard the sound and asked in concern, “What’s wrong, Royal Sister? Are you unwell?”
She reached out to take Long Qingzhi’s pulse out of habit.
Long Qingzhi caught her hand and said in amusement, “I’m fine. I didn’t mean to make you worry, Your Highness.” With that, she patted Lu Liangwei’s hand and returned to her seat.
At the same time, Long Xiao stepped forward and bowed to Long Yang, then to Lu Liangwei.
“We’re all family; there’s no need for such formalities. Have a seat,” said Long Yang.
“Thank you, Royal Brother, Royal Sister-in-Law…” When Long Xiao uttered the words ‘royal sister-in-law’, he paused and gave Lu Liangwei an implicative glance.
Lu Liangwei was a little disgusted when she noticed it.
Was the Prince of Xiangyang not being a bit too presumptuous?
“Speaking of which, I’ve met the Empress once before,” Long Xiao said abruptly, a trace of mischief flashing through his eyes.
Lu Liangwei tensed up. What exactly was Long Xiao trying to say?
Long Yang and Long Qingzhi both glanced at him in surprise.
“You’ve met the Empress before, Eleventh Brother?” asked Long Qingzhi curiously.
