Section One.

I traverse mountains and cross wilderness, my heart in the Southern Dynasty, my body in the Northern Frontier.

Don't look at me like that, I don't like it.

She sent him off, and as she saw a crease in his sleeve, she reached out to fix it for him, and said softly, "The official will be back soon, I'll be waiting for you."

It's actually a strange situation, just like most couples talking in bed, maybe it doesn't seem like anything to others, but Songhua feels uncomfortable. However, when he wakes up, he is completely different from when he is asleep. She may be a little afraid of tough guys and bullies, and when he is unprepared, she once wanted to strangle him. But when he opened his eyes, she immediately retreated, because she knew the power disparity very well. Since she was not his opponent, she could only wait for the opportunity.

He still had an inscrutable look on his face. Hong found that he always paused for a while after speaking, not sure if it was a habit from his childhood. But to say that he was half crazy and half foolish, how could there be such a fool and madman in the world? His thoughts were unfathomable. Taking this step, it was impossible to guess what the next step would be.

Arong shook her head and said, "She will never have anyone closer to her than you."

Spring is so anxious that it spins around. The maid outside said, "The sage is ill, hurry and invite the imperial physician." She twisted a wet towel to wipe her, unable to withstand her wailing, and afraid that she would scratch her skin, she firmly held her hand and said, "What should we do? Let someone go to the empress dowager's palace and report it, lest someone has done something suspicious and poses a threat to you."

When Nonghua woke up from the drunkenness, it was still dark outside. His head was pounding, and he couldn't control his limbs. He tried to reach for water, but it took him two attempts before he could finally struggle to sit up. When he planned to get out of bed, he suddenly realized that there was another person in the bed.

They helped her onto the bed, and the cold mat made her feel a little more comfortable. However, she didn't know why her neck slowly started to itch, becoming more and more intense. She couldn't scratch it, so she suddenly turned over and sat up, frantically pulling at the green gauze quilt.

Spring Wat gave a start, and when asked what was wrong, she frowned and said, "It seems like a bug bit me, it's very itchy."

He frowned and stepped into the inner palace. The heavy curtains in the new room were all lowered. It was already very hot in June, and gauze was hung on the window frames. The window was half-open, and there was a faint breeze blowing in. The light curtains floated and fluttered, covering half of the sleeping quarters like cotton clouds.

The imperial physician licked the tip of his pen and leaned over the desk to write a prescription. It's not too complicated, just honeysuckle, coptis, sophora flavescens, and isatis leaf. He handed it to the eunuch and told him to quickly go and fetch the medicine. Then he turned to his assistant and instructed, "Boil it vigorously and extract the juice to apply to the affected area."

She bit her lip and stared fiercely at the face in front of her. The room was quiet, with only the sound of their breathing. Her heart was restless, and she was almost about to act on the impulse to kill him. At that moment, he suddenly spoke a sentence--.

She became even more confused, "So, is the appointment of the empress by the imperial court merely based on a momentary whim?"

This posture is not unfamiliar to him. Usually, it only unconsciously reveals itself when he is on guard against someone. He reached out and pushed her arm aside, and after pushing it away, he rubbed his fingers on his face twice.

The people below exchanged glances quickly, bowed and said, "Excuse me," and then left the hall, closing the door of the Rouyi Hall.

He climbed onto the footstool bed canopy, while the beauty lay on her side with her back facing him, creating a picturesque scene. However, the red marks on her shoulders were real. Despite her fair skin, she had turned red from drinking, resembling a semi-cooked shrimp.

Chunwo was very helpless. He was sandwiched between Jinguzi and took her into the inner hall.

The wedding customs of the Yue Kingdom are different from those of the Sui Kingdom. The exchange of bows between husband and wife takes place in the bridal chamber. As the Nonghua retreats, the emperor returns to the soft ceremony hall. This time, everything is clear before my eyes, except that the Yiyi's dress is long, and every step must be taken carefully.

She immediately blushed and pulled the brocade quilt to wrap herself up. However, the after-effects of the alcohol rash had not completely subsided. She was too focused on hating him just now that she forgot about the itchiness. But as she covered herself up, the sensation of the creepy and crawling rash lingered around her neck, and she couldn't help but reach in to scratch it again.

The official has woken up? She hesitated and said, "I thought you wouldn't come."

He closed his eyes and sighed deeply, "You and Yun Guan grew up together, studying and playing together. Yun Guan once helped you put on a hairpin and solemnly promised to make you his queen when he ascended the throne. Is that not so?" He turned his face and sneered, "Unfortunately, he did not live to see that day. As his older brother, it was my duty to fulfill his wish. Now that you are the empress of Dayue, Yun Guan should be satisfied even in the afterlife."

He turned his face to look at her, with a faint glance, devoid of any emotions. "The queen doesn't need to be too restrained. In this forbidden garden, the only one who can sit on an equal footing with me is you." He pointed to the pillow, "Lie down, I have something to tell you."

So a valuable silk robe was torn apart, after much effort, and the result was shocking. Large patches of rashes appeared on the originally smooth skin, extending from the jaw to the chest. Due to scratching, the scratch marks intertwined and swelled, which was truly distressing.

She gritted her teeth in hatred and said, "I will never drink again from now on..."

She immediately felt a tingling sensation on her scalp. Indeed, she was a helpless fool. In the middle of the night, her mind was confused. Earlier, she had stumbled, but then she realized that he had actually forgotten about it. Hopefully, she didn't do anything foolish. She just glared at him with a cold expression, without any witnesses or evidence. It shouldn't be considered a fault!

The imperial physician's diagnosis is the same as what Lady Xu Shang said. There are indeed people in this world who cannot handle alcohol. Perhaps the alcohol in the south is milder, but in the area around Bianliang, the alcohol is strong. The Empress originally had a low tolerance for alcohol, so her body couldn't handle it.

That is a kind of feminine roundness, without edges, yet capable of penetrating to the deepest levels. He looked at her with a complex expression, said nothing, and turned and left. Nonghua watched him until his tall figure disappeared into the night, then took two steps back and leaned against the door frame.

The Shang Palace sends a pair of cups, reciting with a smile, "The peach blossoms every day, radiant and splendid. The son returns home, harmonious with his family... Please, Your Majesty, join the sage in a toast, from now on, husband and wife singing together, the phoenix and the phoenix harmonizing."

Her heart skipped a beat, and her mind was dull and confused. Looking around, the hall was filled with red and green decorations. Finally, she remembered that today was the day she would marry the emperor. The person lying beside her was not someone else, but the ultimate goal she had come to achieve.

Upon hearing this, Nong Hua was stunned and asked, "Is this the marriage proposal brought by Sui Shi?"

The alcohol hits quickly, with sweat soaking the forehead, legs feeling weak and powerless, taking a step feels like stepping on a cloud. She covers her mouth, laughing a bit foolishly, "I think... I'm drunk."

She truthfully repeated, "The sage never drinks in the inner chambers. I didn't realize this deficiency before, which is why I'm so flustered today. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." The sage is still drunk at the moment, and according to the imperial physician, it will take at least two hours for the symptoms to slightly subside."

He lay on his back, with his fingers interlocked on his abdomen, without immediately answering her. After a long time, he finally said, "Sui Guo is willing to form a close alliance with Da Yue, marrying a princess as a hostage, and never allowing war to break out... The Empress felt that there was some truth and falsehood in these words?"

Although Arong is childish, her mind is very sharp. She stands tall and says, "Don't worry, Chun Mama. Our relationship is only superficial. I am devoted to the greater good and know what is best for her."

Spring Wo Dao: "Just wipe the affected area."

Spring nodded slightly, then reluctantly looked back. The lights inside the Yongjin Hall were brightly lit. Although the windows were only half open and the curtains were layered, the scene inside could not be seen. The previous rumors about the current emperor were not very good, and she was always worried that something unexpected would happen to the prosperous and beautiful. Today, it seems to be easing. Perhaps the emperor also understands the principle of husband and wife being one body, and is a bit more lenient towards others, but still retains some tenderness for his empress!

He did not hesitate to say, "With the current national strength of Da Yue, we can make the four corners of the world submit. How to arrange things in the palace will not shake the overall situation."

He said: "You just stepped on my foot."

Her heart skipped a beat. It was the same at the Baoci Palace last time, as if he had grown a third eye, able to perceive some buried truths without the need for excavation. Her involvement with Yunguan made her uncertain about how much he actually knew, but every mention of it always made her fearful. She cautiously observed his expression, unable to discern any joy or anger, and tentatively asked, "Since that's the case, the emperor has chosen me as his empress, presumably against popular opinion! As a fake woman like me, who is insignificant and easily dismissed, it's like a ten-pound weight unable to hold down a hundred-pound weight. Princess Wurong comes from a noble background, so why did the emperor abandon her and choose to crown me?"

She remained silent and rubbed her feverish skin hard twice, "It's much better now. I can't hold my liquor..." She leaned forward slightly and asked, "When did His Majesty wake up?"

Spring Wuo suddenly had a reliable feeling in his heart. Although it came late, it was better than not coming at all. Looking back at the bed, she had removed her makeup, her clothes were disheveled, and she was drowsy, occasionally frowning in fear. She had lost all her gracefulness, but in her illness, she had no time to care about such things.

Isn't he unwilling to get close to people? It's unexpected that he would condescend to sleep with her. Before, it was always hurried, and his face was very blurry in her memory. Now, just by looking at him, although still distant, it's not as terrifying as before.

Upon hearing the news, Xu Shanggong from the Yongjin Palace came in and said, "I have seen this kind of symptom before. It is due to drinking alcohol and is not a big deal. Some people cannot drink alcohol, and the internal heat accumulates and cannot be released. They must wait for the alcohol to dissipate slowly, and then it will be fine." He also kindly advised, "The sage should endure for a while and drink the hangover soup. It will soon subside. I will go and ask the emperor to come. With the emperor by your side, evil spirits will not dare to invade." After speaking, he left on his own.

The palace maid from the front hall brought the brewed medicine. He only asked, "How should I use it?"

Chunwo glanced at her and said, "She can no longer be called a princess. She is the queen and needs to establish rules from her own side." After speaking, he turned his head and murmured, "Except for Queen Guo, I think every mother feels the same. When a child grows up and leaves, it is inevitable to feel sad. From now on, the person closest to her will no longer be me..."

Two unfamiliar people stood facing each other, and the atmosphere was very awkward. They quickly exchanged greetings and then sat down. At this point, they felt weak and tired, and their legs were trembling a little.

Not understanding the charm is not good. She really wanted it in her heart. The smile later became somewhat ferocious. Determined, she gulped down the whole glass.
