36: Chapter 36: Is What He Said Really True?
Editor: Henyee Translations “So, about that, I know for sure you all must be there.
You must have heard the Emperor’s command too; she’s the one who let co up here.
Not going up there would an defying an imperial edict, a capital offense that could cost my head.
So, if the Emperor asks about it tomorrow, you all gotta back up, alright?”
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he distinctly heard a slight noise.
Clearly, he had guessed correctly; those white-robed folks must still be inside the room.
And this disturbance, it must be their reaction to what he just said.
Heh heh, I bet they don’t know what to do now.
After all, no matter how you slice it, it was the little Emperor who said it herself.
How would we servants handle this, huh?
Looking at Lin Yi at this mont, he didn’t bother with those outside and went back to the inner chamber.
Afraid that the little Emperor might suddenly wake up, he even deliberately softened his footsteps.
Standing in front of the little Emperor’s bed again, looking at her delicate face that seed like it could break at a touch, Lin Yi couldn’t help swallowing his saliva with a gulp.
He also didn’t forget to ‘salute’ the little Emperor.
[Little girl, you’re the one who asked to co up here, don’t bla later, okay?]
Thinking this, he didn’t hesitate any longer, took off his shoes, and laid down beside the little Emperor.
It must be said that the ancient people were pretty particular about privacy when it ca to sleeping.
Even the Emperor’s bed was not too large; the bedroom was only about ten square ters, quite small in comparison to the vast Imperial Study Room.
As for the bed itself, it was only about 1.8 ters by 2 ters at most.
The purpose of this was actually for safety reasons.
Originally, the bed was not considered small for the little Emperor sleeping alone, but as soon as Lin Yi lay down, it imdiately felt different.
Especially since the little Emperor was lying right in the middle, so their proximity was quite close.
Even the little Emperor’s breath could directly hit Lin Yi’s face.
Slling that faintly fragrant breath, Lin Yi felt like he was about to explode.
Thankfully, the last bit of rationale told him not to go too far, after all, this woman had a high Combat Power.
[Oh Infinite Venerable, this girl is way too tempting, sigh if one day I can beat you, I’m definitely gonna co at you with a big stick!]
While Lin Yi was gazing at the little Emperor’s face and daydreaming, he saw the little Emperor actually moved.
[Darn it, the little Emperor even likes to cuddle with the blanket in her sleep!]
Feeling the long leg pressing on top of him, and the jade arm wrapped around him, Lin Yi only wanted to say one thing:
“Your Majesty, if this keeps up, can we pass the review?”
…
Early the next morning, before it even got light outside, there suddenly ca the sounds of ti being reported and a copper gong being struck.
And with the sound, Lin Yi, who had just been dozing off, was woken up.
“Who lacks such manners, making such a racket early in the morning…”
Muttering under his breath, his hand subconsciously moved his fingers, and imdiately he felt like sticking his hand out of the car window while driving over eighty miles per hour.
This made Lin Yi can’t help but grunt.
“Heh heh, why does this dream feel so real?
This touch is spot on.”
Muttering to himself, he even increased the strength in his hand.
And the next mont, he suddenly felt sothing heavily collide with his body, and then felt his entire body lift off the ground.
The following mont, he heard a ‘thump’, and then found himself crashing hard onto the floor.
This fall left Lin Yi seeing stars, completely disheveled.
At the sa ti, it also jolted him wide awake.
He was just about to curse out loud at whoever the bastard was that sneak attacked him, but before he could speak, what ca into view was a furiously beautiful face with eyes like blazing fire!
Not only that, but the owner of that pretty face wasn’t idle either.
She quickly flipped out of bed, and then her jade hand reached for the Treasure Sword hanging not far from the bedside.
This snapped Lin Yi out of any confusion, fully alert now.
His first reaction was to make a quick escape!
So, ignoring the pain all over his body, he rolled out of bed and ran barefoot outside.
However, before he could get a few ters away, a cold voice sounded in his ear:
“Seize him for !”
As these words fell, Lin Yi only saw a blur before him, and then a white figure caught him in a hold.
Monts later, both Lin Yi and the woman in white were standing with their heads bowed before the young Emperor, who was sitting at the desk, coldly eyeing the woman in white:
“Is what he said true?”
Upon hearing this, the woman in white nodded emotionlessly:
“Replying to Your Majesty, indeed it was you who summoned him up.”
With that, the young Emperor felt helpless in his heart.
He had no idea what he had been dreaming last night.
However, what he could be certain of was that calling that debauchee up was certainly not done while he was sober.
“Hmph, go receive twenty strokes of the cane.”
The woman in white imdiately bowed her head in acknowledgnt, then prepared to leave.
But who would have expected that at this mont, Lin Yi, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly spoke up:
“Hold on!
Let each take responsibility for their own actions.
This matter has nothing to do with her, I’ll take those twenty strokes on her behalf!”
As he spoke, his face took on an expression of resigned bravery.
However, it has to be said that after Lin Yi spoke these words, the woman in white visibly paused, her eyes glancing towards Lin Yi for a mont.
But she only paused very briefly before her figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yi’s face was overco with embarrassnt.
He thought the lady was quite attractive and imagined that playing the hero could at least win her a second glance.
But he never expected that after he spoke, she would completely ignore him.
This was indeed embarrassing.
And while Lin Yi was feeling rather sheepish, the young Emperor let out a cold chuckle:
“Heh, what a chivalrous man you are.
Since you’ve said so yourself, then I’ll oblige you.
The twenty strokes ant for Shi San, plus your own, I will add them all to your account.”
With that, he imdiately prepared to call in soone.
Seeing that he was about to receive a punishnt instead of playing the hero, Lin Yi’s face instantly soured.
“Cough cough, Your Majesty, actually, it’s not a big deal for to take a beating, but it’s just that I have to accompany you to court today.
If I get caned, I’m afraid I won’t be able to attend court.”
Who would have thought that the young Emperor would just flick his sleeve and walk towards the dressing table nearby, saying at the sa ti:
“It’s okay, I can have soone carry you there.”
[Uh, damn, you’re not fighting with martial honor!
And to think I went through all that trouble last night…]
