Is What He Said True?

"Well, I know you're definitely all here.

"You heard Her Majesty's orders. She asked me to get into bed.

"If I don't do that, I'll be disobeying the decree. That can get me killed.

"Therefore, if Her Majesty asks questions tomorrow, you have to testify for me."

After saying this, Lin Yi heard a faint sound.

Obviously, he had guessed correctly. There must be those people in white in this room.

Moreover, the sound was definitely their reply after hearing his words.

They probably didn't know what to do either.

After all, the order came from the young emperor herself.

What could her subordinates do?

Lin Yi ignored those people and went back to the inner room.

Fearing that the young emperor would suddenly wake up, he even walked on tiptoe.

Standing in front of the young emperor's bed again, Lin Yi couldn't help but swallow as he looked at the young emperor's delicate face.

He was instantly aroused.

"Well, you asked me to get into bed with you. Don't blame me when the time comes."

With this thought in mind, he no longer hesitated. He took off his shoes and lay down beside the young emperor.

He had to admit that ancient people were very particular about privacy when it came to sleeping places.

Even the place where the emperor slept wasn't very big. Compared to the huge imperial study outside, this bedroom was only about ten square meters.

As for this bed, it was even smaller. It was about 1.8 meters by 2 meters.

It was actually for safety purposes.

The bed was more than enough for the young emperor when she slept alone, but now that Lin Yi had joined her, things were different.

The young emperor was lying in the middle of the bed, so the two of them were quite close.

Lin Yi could feel the young emperor's breath on his face.

Her fragrant breath made Lin Yi want to explode.

What was left of his senses told him not to cross the line because this woman was quite a capable martial practitioner.

"Holy smokes! You're so delicious! If there comes the day when I can defeat you, I'll show you what I can do!"

While Lin Yi was staring at the young emperor's face and having lewd ideas, the young emperor moved.

"Gosh! She likes to sleep with her duvet between her legs!"

Sensing the long leg and fair arm wrapped around him, Lin Yi only had one thought in his mind.

"Your Majesty, this isn't what I signed up for."

...

The next morning, the sound of someone announcing the time and beating a gong suddenly came from outside before sunrise.

With that voice, Lin Yi, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up.

"Who on earth was that? Why are they screaming so early in the morning…"

As he mumbled, he involuntarily moved his fingers and felt something pleasant.

Lin Yi couldn't help but moan a little.

"Why is this dream so real? It feels good to the touch."

As he mumbled, he tightened his grip.

In the next moment, he suddenly felt a hard blow. Then, he was in mid-air.

The next second, he heard a thud and then he fell heavily to the ground.

Lin Yi was dizzy from the fall and could see stars.

He was fully awake now.

He was about to curse the bastard that had ambushed him, but before he could open his mouth, he saw a beautiful face with flames burning in her eyes!

Not only that, the owner of this pretty face took action immediately. She jumped off the bed and reached for the sword hanging nearby.

This time, Lin Yi was completely awake no matter how confused he was.

His first reaction was to run away!

Hence, she ignored the pain all over his body and ran out barefooted.

However, he only made it a few meters before a cold voice rang out in his ear.

"Take him down!"

As soon as the young emperor said that, Lin Yi felt his vision blur. Then, he was captured by a white shadow.

A moment later, Lin Yi and the woman in white lowered their heads and stood in front of the young emperor, who sat at the table and looked coldly at the woman in white.

"Is he telling the truth?"

When the woman in white heard this, she nodded expressionlessly.

"Your Majesty, it was indeed you who asked him to get into bed."

The young emperor didn't know what to say.

She couldn't recall what she dreamed about the night before, but she was sure she wasn't awake when she asked the lecher to get into bed with her.

"You'll be flogged twenty times."

The woman in white immediately lowered her head and nodded. Then, she was ready to leave.

At that moment, Lin Yi, who had his head lowered, suddenly spoke.

"Wait! I'll take responsibility for my own actions. What happened has nothing to do with her. I'll take those twenty floggings instead !"

As he spoke, he even looked like he was facing death calmly.

Hearing those words, the woman in white was obviously surprised, and she glanced at Lin Yi for the first time.

However, she only paused for a moment before disappearing on the spot.

Lin Yi looked embarrassed when he saw this.

He found the woman quite pretty and thought by saving the damsel in distress, the woman would change her attitude toward him.

To his surprise, she ignored him completely.

That was awkward.

Not only that, but the young emperor also smirked while Lin Yi was still feeling embarrassed.

"What a hero you are. Since you've said so, I'll fulfill your wish. I'll add the twenty floggings of Thirteen to your own twenty floggings."

She was going to summon her subordinates.

Lin Yi's expression turned bitter when he saw that he still had to be flogged for being a hero.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, actually, I don't mind the flogging, but I have to accompany you to the court today. If I'm flogged, I'm afraid I won't be able to go."

However, the young emperor flicked her sleeves and walked toward the dressing table. She said,

"That's alright. I can get someone to carry you there."

"Oh no! That's so unfair! To think that last night…"
