Chapter 152

 After returning from Prince Wei's Mansion, Pang Jun spent another two days of peaceful days. During these two days, except for the morning of the 29th, when he was invited to Prince Zhao's Mansion by Prince Zhao Yang Sheng for a "lecture", and Pang Jun's old rival Qin Yi came to visit, the rest of the time was very free. Except for when he was in the mood and asked Pan Tong and Yue Siwan, mother and daughter, to serve him with some embarrassing ideas, he spent more time in the study reading, practicing martial arts and meditating.

  The content of the audience with King Zhao was nothing special. It was nothing more than that Pang Jun had worked hard to obtain the position of Marquis of Changning, and Pang Jun must be grateful to him. Maybe he made many promises, but Pang Jun basically didn't believe what he said. As for the eldest princess Yang Chuyu, who was often with Yang Sheng, she returned to her own mansion and did not show up.

  After Pang Jun spent a happy New Year's Eve with the women and servants in the mansion, he attended the grand court meeting on the first day of the new year.

  On the first day of the first lunar month, Emperor Yang Shao put on a brand new dragon robe and accepted congratulations from officials in fancy clothes. He also had to receive envoys from distant vassal states or neighboring countries. On the central avenue of Tianjing City, there were rumblings of carriages, neighings of horses, and people in official hats and robes looking at each other. Bells and drums were blaring, and stringed instruments were deafening. After the homage from all parties, a grand banquet was held. The banquet was spread out for several miles and was used to accommodate civil and military officials and envoys from all directions. The emperor raised the specially made "Golden Bowl of Eternal Solidity" inlaid with gold and jewels and toasted everyone with a glass of wine, implying the eternal stability of his country.

  After the banquet, the emperor, in the presence of ministers and envoys from all over the world, held a grand ceremony of opening the pen in the main hall where he held court. He dipped his brush in ink, first using a red brush to write words and then using an ink brush to write auspicious messages, praying for peace and prosperity in the new year, as well as good weather.

  The next afternoon, someone came to visit the Marquis of Changning's mansion. He was a middle-aged man with a fair face and no beard, a eunuch. Pang Jun recognized him as the eunuch who was the confidant of Concubine Nan. The eunuch said to Pang Jun, "Marquis Changning, my master invites you." Pang Jun secretly sighed. What should come should come.

  After changing his clothes, Pang Jun still got on the windowless carriage. About half an hour later, Pang Jun once again came to the valley courtyard where he met Nan Xiangwu, and once again saw the charming Concubine Nan.

  It was the middle of winter. Although it was cold outside, the blazing charcoal stove made the room as warm as spring. Nan Xiangwu, a noble concubine of the Jin Dynasty, was wearing a black sable fur robe and a scarlet fire fox shawl on her shoulders. She was not wearing any other clothes below her chest and neck. Her plump breasts seemed to be bursting out of her clothes, which was very eye-catching. Her long hair was tied into a bun, surrounded by several strings of dazzling pearls. Her eyes were as clear as crystals immersed in water, with the corners of her eyes slightly raised. She was a very sexy and enchanting beauty.

  After seeing Pang Jun, Concubine Nan said in a sweet voice: "I haven't seen you for a year. You have grown taller, but your skin is not as fair as before. I'm afraid you have suffered a lot in Liaodong?" The voice was so beautiful that Pang Jun felt weak all over and his heart was burning.

  "Liu Jun thanks the Queen for her concern. Thanks to the Queen, Liu Jun has lived a very fulfilling life this year. He has worked diligently and has not dared to slack off. The people of Songzhou are also living and working in peace and contentment." Pang Jun gathered his thoughts and responded respectfully.

  "Haha, if you call this diligence, then there is no better governor than you in the Great Jin Dynasty. Come, the scenery of this place in winter is unique, accompany me for a walk." Nan Xiangwu stood up and stretched her waist to make her plump and firm breasts more prominent, which made Pang Jun feel a little thirsty.

  She was very satisfied with Pang Jun's performance. She smiled coquettishly and asked him teasingly, "How is it? Does it look good? Do you want to touch it? See which is bigger, mine or your concubine's?"

  "Your humble servant dare not offend or blaspheme the Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." Pang Jun said hurriedly with his head lowered. According to his feeling, among all the women he had seen, Nan Xiangwu and Lyudmila had the biggest breasts. As for who had bigger breasts, it was really hard to say. It's just that Grand Duchess Luosha was tall and her frame was much bigger than the average Central Plains person, and Nan Xiangwu had a typical Central Plains woman's frame, but her breasts were almost the same as Lyudmila's. It was mainly because Lyudmila's waist was relatively thick, while the beautiful mature woman in front of him was a Jiangnan woman with a thinner waist, which made her already plump breasts and buttocks even more impactful.

  "Hehe, what else are you afraid of? My bra and panties have been desecrated by you, what have they become?" Nan Xiangwu smiled coquettishly, looking at Pang Jun with her watery eyes and said, "Let's go. It's cold and damp here. Beside the waterfall pool, there will be rime in winter, shining brightly. It's a rare beauty. Come with me to see it."

  Nan Xiangwu was in front, and Pang Jun was behind. The two came to the edge of the cold pond outside. The shore of the cold pond was covered with pebbles, the water surface was sparkling, and the branches on the shore were covered with icicles, which was beautiful. Nan Xiangwu stretched out a jade hand to Pang Jun and said coquettishly: "Liu Qing, you hold me and walk along the shore of the pond to see the scenery. I will appreciate it."

  "Liu Jun dare not overstep the line." Pang Jun said quickly, lowering his head.

  "You just do whatever I tell you to do. How dare you disobey me?" Nan Xiangwu said angrily. "You were so diligent when I took my bra and panties? Now I ask you to help me but you refuse?"

  Seeing this, Liu Jun knew that Nan Xiangwu was just pretending, but he could do nothing but agree: "Liu Jun will follow the Empress's instructions. Your Majesty, please be careful." After that, he took Nan Xiangwu's hand and half-supported the beautiful woman as they began to walk along the shore of the cold pond.

  Nan Xiangwu's jade hands were slender, soft and boneless, delicate and white. When she held it, it felt warm, as if she was holding a piece of warm and soft jade. She looked at the trembling Pang Jun, and felt a little funny in her heart, so she asked, "I heard from His Majesty before that you, Liu Jun, did several great things in Songzhou in one year, which the governor of the world might not be able to do in his entire life. You slaughtered the Zu family in Songzhou and killed a large group of Dongying people. Your hands are already stained with blood. Logically, you should be a decisive hero. Why are you so afraid to hold my hand? I don't know martial arts, and I'm powerless. Why are you trembling? Besides, weren't you quite bold before you took office as the governor of Songzhou? You even licked me there with your mouth. Hehe, why are you getting more and more timid now?"

  "That's because it's lonely at the top. I'm only seventeen years old and I have concubines and parents at home, so I must be cautious. As for the Japanese and the Zu clan rebels, they are all enemies, enemies of the Great Jin. I believe that we should kill the enemies without mercy and eradicate all evil. But Your Majesty is different. Not only are you not an enemy, but you are the most beautiful in Tianjing and a royal noble. I'm trembling with fear because I'm afraid of offending Your Majesty's face." Pang Jun said flatteringly.

  "Hehe, you are so sweet-talker. Come here and I will reward you." After saying that, Nan Xiangwu ignored Pang Jun's reaction, stepped forward and kissed Pang Jun on the right cheek, which made Pang Jun look around in fear, afraid to be seen by others.

  Seeing Pang Jun's cautious look, Nan Xiangwu was even more amused: "Haha, you're so funny like this, like a little boy having an affair. This is the reaction you should have at your age. Even when King Zhao was your age, he wasn't as mature as you are. I haven't been so happy for a long time."

  "His Royal Highness Prince Zhao is wise and brave, Minister Nan is young and strong, and the queen is deeply favored by His Majesty. There is also the company of the young Concubine Nan in the palace. Her own children are outstanding, her parents are healthy, and she has caring juniors around her. The queen should always be very happy, right?" Pang Jun said calmly.

  "Hmph," Nan Xiangwu put away her smile after hearing Pang Jun's words, and snorted coldly, "Just like what you said, it's lonely at the top. Sometimes, I envy the Queen, who has nothing to do and is free from worries. The two princesses are married, and she hides in the palace every day, embroidering and reading, and only comes out to show her face when she has no other choice. I'm afraid that in the entire palace, the Queen is the most free and easy."

  Pang Jun remained silent. He roughly knew the situation, but since it involved the contents of the Forbidden Palace, he would not be smart and ask further. Prince Zhao wanted to be the crown prince, but Concubine Nan had other plans. As for the other young Concubine Nan in the palace, she seemed to be a difficult person as well. That was why Nan Xiangwu felt exhausted.

  The two of them walked around the valley for another quarter of an hour before Nan Xiangwu said to Pang Jun, "I am getting old, old. I am a little tired after walking for such a short while. Let's go back."

  Pang Jun nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I obey your order."

  When they returned to the villa, it was already 5:45 in the afternoon. Dinner had been prepared in the villa. At Nan Xiangwu's request, Pang Jun had no choice but to stay and have dinner with her.

  Of course, wine is indispensable when dining. Zhejiang is a world-famous place for producing rice wine. Nan Xiangwu, who is from Zhejiang, likes to drink rice wine very much. Before she ate much, she had drunk half of the bottle of Zhejiang's daughter's red wine. At this moment, she seemed to be drunk, her face was more beautiful than flowers, and her blush was as beautiful as the brilliant and gorgeous clouds in the sky.

  She asked Pang Jun as if jokingly: "Marquis Changning, I want to ask you, among all the women you have ever seen, who is the most beautiful woman?"

  If we talk about the most beautiful woman Pang Jun has ever seen, it would be his fiancée Wei Wangshu who is now in Xinzhou. However, Pang Jun could not tell the truth, so he just smiled and said, "Forgive me for my presumption, but of course it must be the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine is the most beautiful in Tianjin. Although I have traveled a lot over the years and have seen many stunning beauties, none of them can compare to the Imperial Concubine."

  "Hahaha, you little brat, no wonder you have so many concubines. Your mouth is as sweet as honey. I don't know how many women you have deceived," she pointed at Pang Jun and said with a smile. Then, she suddenly stood up, turned around, sat on the bed, looked at Pang Jun with a charming and blurred look and said, "But I am also very curious, how sweet is your mouth, can you let me have a taste?"
