Chapter 9 Little Lark

Bai Nanyu walked over gently, and gently ran his fingers through Shen Nianwan's soft hair. His movements were as gentle as the spring breeze blowing across the lake, with a bit of pampering and care.

He smiled slightly.

"Look at you, you are so obedient and sensible, unlike your sister." He said softly, with a hint of helplessness and a touch of nostalgia in his tone.

"This is what a concubine should do."

Shen Nianwan was still kneeling on the ground, and Bai Nanyu didn't seem to want her to get up at all.

"Have you finished what you asked your father to do?"

"Father just sent a message, saying that it will take up to ten days."

"Tell him, within five days, otherwise he will know the consequences."

Shen Nianwan's heart trembled slightly, she knew what this meant. Five days is undoubtedly a huge pressure for my father. She nodded gently and said, "Yes, I obey your order."

Bai Nanyu looked at her, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. He stretched out his hand and gently lifted her up, as if he was lifting a fragile flower.

Shen Nianwan stood up and lowered her eyes, not daring to look directly into his eyes.

"Can you sing a ditty? I've been really feeling bored lately."

Shen Nianwan raised her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She pursed her lips, nodded gently, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito's fly, "I know a little, but I'm afraid it will stain His Majesty's ears."

Bai Nanyu laughed and reached out to pat her shoulder, "It doesn't matter, I just like to hear something new."

He turned around and walked to the soft couch beside him , sat down gracefully, and stretched out his hand to motion for Shen Nianwan to come forward.

Shen Nianwan took a deep breath to calm down the tension in her heart, then walked slowly to Bai Nanyu 's side, lightly opened her red lips, and began to sing a ditty.

"You can see, I am dancing gracefully; you can see, I am looking so intoxicating..."

Bai Nanyu 's eyes flashed with admiration, and he leaned slightly closer to Shen Nianwan, as if attracted by the melodious melody. He closed his eyes and listened carefully, as if the whole world was immersed in this beautiful melody.

"Okay, okay, Wan'er is really as good as a lark." He praised softly, his voice full of appreciation and joy.

Shen Nianwan was a little embarrassed by his praise. She lowered her head with a blush on her face.

Bai Nanyu opened his eyes and looked at Shen Nianwan's focused and gentle face, feeling an inexplicable emotion well up in his heart.

"As long as the emperor likes it."

" Wan'er, what else don't you know that I don't know?"

Shen Nianwan's body trembled slightly, and she felt that her heartbeat accelerated instantly, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. She hurriedly lowered her head, trying to cover up her gaffe, but accidentally exposed that white patch of snow.

Bai Nanyu 's eyes were instantly attracted. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He reached out his hand, gently held Shen Nianwan's shoulders, and gently pulled her closer to him.

" Wan'er , you..." His voice was trembling.

Shen Nianwan's cheeks turned red instantly, and she felt as if she was being roasted by fire.

Time flies so fast, and it’s dawn in the blink of an eye.

When Shen Nianwan woke up in the morning, she felt a little tired and her back hurt so much that she couldn't straighten up.

She got up gently, walked to Bai Nanyu 's bed, knelt on the ground, and began to help him change clothes.

Bai Nanyu opened his eyes and saw Shen Nianwan kneeling in front of him, and a warmth surged in his heart. He stretched out his hand, gently held her hand, smiled and said, " Wan'er , thank you for your hard work."

Shen Nianwan smiled slightly and shook her head, "This is what I should do as a concubine."

She gently untied Bai Nanyu 's pajamas and carefully helped him put on the dragon robe.

"Miss, why are you not in a hurry? The Emperor has never been to our place even once after being in the palace for so long?"

Shen Nianshu smiled softly and kept moving her hands to adjust Bai Nanyu's collar .

"You can't rush this kind of thing." She said softly, with a sense of calmness and calmness in her tone.

"But Miss, if you don't hurry, your position in this palace will be unstable." Pearl stamped her feet anxiously.

Shen Nianshu raised her head, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, "Zhenzhu, some things cannot be solved in a hurry. What I need is an opportunity, an opportunity for the emperor to really notice me."

She put down the clothes in her hands, stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the bright sunshine outside, with a confident smile on her lips.

"Don't worry, the time will come."

"Okay , okay , listen to the lady!"

Shen Nianshu turned around and said softly to Pearl, "By the way, Pearl, remember to pay attention to those people and be on guard against others. If there is any trouble, come and tell me immediately."

Pearl nodded, and replied with a serious face, "Don't worry, miss, I'm always paying attention."

Shen Nianshu gently put down the embroidery in her hands, raised her head and looked out the window. The sunlight shines on her gentle face through the gauze-like curtains, adding a soft temperament to her. She smiled slightly and said to Pearl, "The weather is pretty good today. I have nothing to do. Come on, let's go out for a walk."

Hearing this, Pearl's eyes lit up and she immediately stepped forward to dress up Shen Nianshu. Shen Nianshu was wearing an elegant green dress. The hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps, like a flowing ink painting. There is a delicate hosta in her bun, which makes her look even more extraordinary.

The two of them walked out of the bedroom and walked along the paths in the palace.

The sunlight filtered through the complex palace buildings and shone dappledly on Shen Nianshu and Pearl, adding a rare touch of warmth to the deep palace.

"Miss, look over there." Pearl pointed at a rockery not far away and said.

Shen Nianshu looked in the direction pointed by Pearl. There seemed to be two people behind the rockery, and they seemed to be arguing about something.

"Let's go over and take a look." Shen Nianshu said softly, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

The two of them approached the pavilion and saw that the young eunuch had a wretched look on his face, while the palace maid had a stubborn look on her face and seemed unwilling to compromise.

"With your wretched appearance, I 've already given you a great blessing by being able to like you and have sex with you. How dare you disobey me?"

"Miss, let's go, we'd better leave this mess alone." Pearl whispered to Shen Nianshu.

Seeing that the palace maid didn't answer, the little eunuch became even more proud. He stretched out his hand to pull the palace maid's sleeve. The palace maid struggled to avoid it, but was unable to break away due to the disparity in strength.

At this moment, Shen Nianshu suddenly stood up and said, " Hey , what a big statement. You, a eunuch in this palace, dare to call yourself my master."

The young eunuch and the maid were startled, and they turned to look,

I saw Shen Nianshu and Pearl walking out from behind the rockery.

The little eunuch said, "I'm here to see you, Concubine Shu!"

The palace maid next to her finally realized what she was doing. She knelt down and said with blessing, "I'm here to see you, Concubine Shu."

Shen Nianshu nodded slightly and glanced at the two of them. She noticed that the palace maid's wrist was already red from being scratched by the little eunuch , and she couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart. She asked coldly , "What's going on?"

When the young eunuch saw that it was Concubine Shu, his attitude immediately became respectful. He lowered his head and replied cautiously, "In reply to the concubine, she asked the slave to have sex with her . If the slave refused, she had to catch him. If the slave is not careful, he may..."

" The right food?" Shen Nianshu frowned slightly.

When the palace maid heard that the young eunuch was confusing right and wrong, she immediately argued eagerly, "No, my dear, that's not the case. You have to make the decision for me!"

There was a cry in her voice, and she was obviously anxious.

Shen Nianshu frowned slightly. She looked at the palace maid's red eyes and already had some guesses in her mind. She turned to look at the little eunuch, a coldness flashed in her eyes, "You said she asked you to eat the right food, do you have any evidence?"

The little eunuch was intimidated by Shen Nianshu's momentum and did not dare to speak for a while. He glanced at the palace maid secretly, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

"My slave is wrong."

"get out."

Shen Nianshu nodded slightly and motioned for him to step back. If the little eunuch was granted amnesty, he quickly got up from the ground and ran away in a panic.

Seeing the young eunuch leave, the palace maid finally breathed a sigh of relief. She raised her head and looked at Shen Nianshu, her eyes full of gratitude, "My maid Cai Die, thank you so much for your life-saving grace, Concubine Shu ."

Shen Nianshu smiled slightly and shook her head, "You don't need to thank me, I'm just not used to seeing that kind of person."

She stretched out her hand and gently took the palace maid's hand. Seeing the red marks on her wrist, she couldn't help frowning, "Your wrist is red. Come with me and take you to get some medicine."

"Thank you , Concubine Shu. Concubine, can I follow you in the future?"
