Clouds Drunk, Moon Slightly Sleeping

Chapter 129

"Xiao Ye!" Ye Feng finally stopped. I looked up, a little dizzy, and was shocked to see a row of about twenty men in black standing in front of Xiao Ye and me. Wait, the one in the middle, although also dressed in black and with his back to us, was completely different from the others. He was particularly eye-catching, and no matter how I looked at him, he looked exactly like that stinky fox. No, not just like, the way that man in black was standing with his back to me, although I couldn't see his face, I could strongly feel the lazy and lewd aura emanating from him. It must be that stinky fox.

Although Xiaoye seems to have flown me quite a distance, we should still be in the Zuiyuequan Scenic Area, right? The surrounding trees are quite tall, large, and dense, and the terrain isn't low either, making it look quite secluded. But aren't there soldiers guarding the Zuiyuequan area? And what is that stinky fox doing here in Xiu Ruo at this time? Is he just bored and on a spring outing?

Just as I thought this, the force on my waist disappeared, and I rushed to the man in black in the middle in a few strides. I was about to grab him by the neck and yell at him, but before he could even reach out or speak, he pulled me into a tight embrace. I sighed inwardly. National affairs, war, marriage—none of these were things he could simply ignore or abandon. Now that he had finally arrived, finally appeared before me, all the doubts and resentments in my heart vanished in that moment. He came, still unmarried, which explained everything.

"Big brother has lost weight." I couldn't help but touch the face in front of me that was full of longing and anticipation. I wanted to scold him for taking so long to remember me, but as soon as the words came out, they automatically changed to something else.

He didn't speak, but his face was unusually devoid of his usual lazy smile. When he saw me, he seemed to feel a sense of relief for a moment, and then his lips curled up. But there was clearly more repression in his eyes. He held my hand very tightly.

"Why are you here, big brother?" I reached out and wrapped my arms around his waist, burying my face in his chest, trying to inhale the faint ambergris scent emanating from him that felt so familiar and comforting.

"Qianqian..." he finally spoke, his voice and brow showing a hint of weariness from rushing on his journey.

My heart skipped a beat, and I lifted my face from his embrace, only to see his face looming ever larger before me. A warmth touched my lips, and I involuntarily closed my eyes, our lips entwining as we whispered our longing for each other. Half a year had passed since our last parting.

"Your Majesty." It was Ye Feng's voice.

Hearing the sound, I immediately stopped my tender actions and buried my face in the fox's arms, feeling a burning sensation in my ears. Unsurprisingly, I heard a soft laugh above me. That lecherous fox! Kissing in front of so many people! I was out of my mind; I'd completely forgotten that there were quite a few onlookers around us. Now look what happened! Doing something so embarrassing in front of everyone, getting all witnessed—what a huge loss! 555

The thought of being taken advantage of made me feel no shame. I quickly looked up from the fox's embrace and saw several men in black forming a semi-circle in front of the fox and me. I looked ahead and saw several figures swiftly flying towards us. I didn't need to look closely to know they were the guards. Wang An must have sent them to find me after waiting for so long.

"Step back, all of you!" I stepped out of the fox's embrace, took a few steps forward, and whispered.

The group obediently stopped, but didn't leave immediately. What chaos! You can encounter all sorts of bizarre situations. For a fox to run into someone like that and not even try to avoid them—it's really something. However, I've always disliked people who disobey my orders to leave.

"Didn't you hear what I said? Do you want me to repeat what I just said?" I took a few more steps forward and said with a faint smile.

The group exchanged glances, bowed, and quietly withdrew. I breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and glared angrily at the fox. Sure enough, he was grinning smugly, looking at me with his peach blossom eyes slanted upwards, arms crossed, and said in a lazy voice, "Qianqian is indeed favored. This Drunken Moon City is no ordinary city. King Xiu Ruo was actually willing to bestow it upon Qianqian."

“Yes, Grandfather is so generous. When will you bestow a city upon me, elder brother?” I rolled my eyes at him. I couldn’t stand his lazy attitude, especially on someone else’s turf, and especially in such a serious and formal setting.

He suddenly reached out and pulled me into a tight embrace, then lowered his head and kissed my lips again. At first, I struggled slightly, but thinking of the audience nearby, I quickly lost my bearings and could only let that guy take advantage of me.

“Every inch of Longyao’s land is shared by me and Qianqian.” He finally left my lips with satisfaction, pressed my head against his chest, let me hear the unusual heartbeat in his chest, and whispered in my ear.

Oh no, this fox has gotten even more lecherous in the past six months! He's so unrestrained in these intimate acts in front of people, more open than I am, a 21st-century modern person. If this continues, he might be accepting having sex in nature within two years. Uh, what am I thinking? I quickly shook my head back and forth in the fox's arms, trying to shake off these far-fetched thoughts. It seems that around this lecherous fox, I'm starting to become lecherous too.

"Why is my brother here?" I asked again, voicing the question that had been on my mind.

"I've come to take Qianqian home. This time, we'll never be apart again." He cupped my face in his hands, his peach blossom eyes shining like stars and clear as water, revealing all his emotions to me without reservation.

"We'll never be apart again..." I repeated softly, slightly lost in thought.

"We'll never be apart again!" he said firmly, his peach blossom eyes filled with certainty, and his face wore his usual lazy smile. He took my hand and we walked slowly out of the woods.

Even after returning to my villa in Drunken Moon City, I still felt like I was in a dream. Meeting the fox in Drunken Moon Spring felt like a dream, a dream I had imagined a thousand times over in my heart. I reached out and touched my lips, yet it felt so real that it made me blush. It wasn't a dream; the fox had really come, and now he had already gone to Xiuzhou ahead of me.

I was torn. On one hand, I wanted to rush to Xiuzhou to find out the outcome of the conversation between the fox and the old man, and whether the marriage would be successful or not. On the other hand, I wanted to obediently listen to the fox and stay in Zuiyue City for a few more days. He said he would come back to Zuiyue City to see me after he finished his business. If I went back to Xiuruo, I was afraid it would be difficult to see him again.

I hesitated for three days on the question of whether to stay or go back. After three days, I simply stopped hesitating and decided to stay in Drunken Moon City. I would either wait for the fox to come or wait for the old man to send someone to pick me up. I would wait quietly for the fox to come back, so that I wouldn't end up running back to the fox only to find that I had come here and ended up with nothing. That would be so frustrating!

I wasn't in the mood to go out. I'd been staying in Drunken Moon City for almost half a month. I actually did quite a bit of sightseeing in the first few days, but these past few days I'd simply holed up in the villa, causing chaos throughout the entire place. To be honest, although I've never had any cooking experience, I've always loved watching my mother busy in the kitchen. I considered myself to have solid theoretical knowledge, an interest in the subject, and even confidence in my talent, despite my lack of practical experience. But now, cooking is terrifying! In this alternate dimension without kitchens and bathrooms, it's incredibly difficult for a woman to cook delicious meals.

Grand Wedding

That day, I sheepishly emerged from the kitchen again, but eventually ate the lunch prepared by the cook, and then lay on the bed, rolling around in bed for a nap. The days were getting warmer, the peach blossoms were pink and the willows green, and the spring breeze was slightly intoxicating. Suddenly, I missed the pavilion in the Imperial Garden of the Dragon Radiance Palace, surrounded by peach blossoms of various colors. That was my first day of court, and that fox actually kept me after court on my very first day. Then, I guess it was in that Imperial Garden, in that pavilion, surrounded by peach blossoms, that he used his male fox spirit's seductive magic on me, which is why I'm still so devoted to him, rejecting the advances of countless other good men without hesitation.

I vaguely felt someone pressing down on me, a warm, wet touch on my face, like someone gently kissing it. A kiss? I opened my eyes abruptly, meeting a pair of deep, unfathomable peach blossom eyes. At that moment, a familiar flame flickered within those eyes, while his lips continued to roam over my face, from my eyebrows to my eyes, to the tip of my nose, to my lips, lingering there before moving down. Even in his busyness, he managed to whisper my name, "Qianqian," "Qianqian," each sound incredibly alluring.

"Big brother..." Fox is back. How did your talk with the old man go? It's broad daylight now, you lecherous fox. While I still have some sense left, I reached out and pushed him with difficulty. Hey, where's Yaoyao? Right, Yaoyao's been suffering from the big bone stew I've been making these past few days. She's been avoiding me lately, so she's not in her room.

"Name." He reached out and loosened the belt around my waist in an instant, then slipped his other hand into his robes. I instinctively gasped, my body trembling slightly. I pressed one hand against his unruly hand, trying to stop his further teasing, but he grabbed my hand in return, guiding me toward his chest.

"Yu." His eyes held an undisguised desire that captivated me. I unconsciously responded to him. This person I had longed for day and night, the one I had yearned for, was now truly standing before me. I reached out and could feel his heartbeat, his breath.

His hands led me to linger over his body. The feel of his skin was completely different from mine—firm and warm, a very comfortable sensation. He wasn't a muscular man, nor was he skinny. God had given him an unparalleled good appearance, I had to admit. I had originally intended to push him away, but now I imitated him, one hand lingering on his back, trying to lightly trace his curves with my fingers, while the other hand hovered in front of him, causing him to groan with pleasure.

"Qianqian, you're such a fairy." He reached out and lowered the bed curtains, and as we closed up, he hugged me tightly, sighing with utter satisfaction.

“Yu… is also… a seductive… vixen…” I gasped and groaned, being led by him to the peak of ecstasy, and replied unwillingly.

His movements below became even more passionate, and I could only wrap my arms around his waist and cling to his shoulders, letting him take what he wanted. The quilt beneath us was disheveled, and the scent of sweat mingled with the ambergris emanating from his body, creating a decadent fragrance within the small space of the bed curtains.

"Qianqian," he murmured contentedly, like a lazy and elegant Persian cat that had successfully stolen a bite.

I lay panting against his chest, gritting my teeth and cursing myself for being spineless, for falling for someone so easily. A wave of resentment washed over me as I traced circles on his chest with my fingernails and asked, "Did things go well?"

My heart was a little uneasy. Although the fox didn't seem to be having a bad time, I had been struggling with him for so long. Before, when Old Man Yun tried to stop Yun Feng from agreeing, even though things were much better now, there was no guarantee that Old Man Yun wouldn't go back on his word again.

He looked at me, his peach blossom eyes serious and earnest, but he remained silent. His gaze made me uneasy, and I grew increasingly flustered. Just as I was about to ask again, his peach blossom eyes suddenly broadened into a deep smile, like a stone thrown into a lake. A slight smile played at the corners of his lips, as if he were extremely pleased with my earlier nervousness and anxiety. He reached out and embraced me tightly, sighing as he said, "King Xiu Ruo has agreed and issued the marriage decree. The wedding envoy will be Shen An, who has already departed and will soon be there to welcome Qianqian back to the country. I will be in Longyao, waiting for Qianqian."

My heart was instantly at ease.

The fox left in the afternoon because he had to get out of the city before the gates closed. He had a lot of things to do, including national war and family matters. I left Zuiyue Palace early the next morning and returned to Xiuzhou.

Just as the fox said, the old man agreed to my marriage with him and even issued a decree to announce it to the world. I lay on the bed, grinning, thinking that my marriage with the fox was finally a done deal. After rolling around a couple of times, I realized something was wrong. What if something went wrong with the marriage? What if I was attacked on my way back to Longyao? What if he wanted to take concubines after I married the fox...? The more I thought about it, the more terrifying, the more suspicious it became. Suddenly, I sat up. Oh my god, do I have pre-wedding jitters? Before we were together, I longed to be together, but now that we can finally be together legitimately, I'm starting to feel nervous, scared, and worried again.

Of course, everyone except me was incredibly busy, busy with all the ceremonies and preparing the dowry. I didn't understand any of this, and I was too lazy to bother with it, so I simply shrugged and ignored everything. I only answered when someone asked me something, like what I liked or disliked, the style of my wedding dress, my birth date, etc. I answered every question with absolute sincerity. But as time went on, I could no longer be idle. Every day, the old empress would drag me to lecture me on all the palace rules, what a wife should do, what a mother should do, and the magnanimity, temperament, integrity, emotions, and sentiments that an empress should possess. I almost fainted from listening to all this, and could only silently blame all the suffering on the fox.

Shen An arrived very quickly, making one wonder if he had already set off from Longyao before the marriage decree was finalized. The old man and old man Yun were very hospitable, treating Shen An well and not making things difficult for him. A few days later, they readily and respectfully saw me off from the palace. Shen An was the envoy to welcome the bride, but Yun Feng was the envoy to send her off. I thought that although Yun Feng couldn't disobey the decree, he would at least say a few words to me, and mention my mother's last wishes or something. However, he didn't say a single unpleasant word. But when he looked at me, there was always a look of reluctance in his eyes, as if I were his daughter and he were the father marrying off his daughter. I was sweating bullets.

The journey was peaceful. As soon as I entered the territory of Longyao Kingdom, the Imperial Guards cleared the way. That fox actually led the Imperial Guards to personally welcome me, which was quite irregular and too ostentatious. But I was also happy. After all, I am still a little woman. Who doesn't like to be valued by the one they love? It's an exception, it's being valued, it's being ostentatious, but isn't it also a kind of romance?
