In the long hallways of the imperial palace, the emperor decided not to take the empress to the empress's palace, but to remain in the main palace.
His decision had two reasons.
One was that he recognized the severity of the empress's current condition. She was under the influence of an aphrodisiac, and her condition needed to be treated immediately. The second reason was that she was also in heat. This was because of the effect of the aphrodisiac.
One was a natural occurrence, and the other was artificial.
Given the proximity of the emperor's bedchamber compared to the distant empress's palace, it was best to quickly immerse the empress in cold water before he himself became affected by her heat.
No…it was already late as her intoxicating scent had started to cloud his mind gradually….a very sweet torture.
Upon reaching the hallway of the emperor's bed chambers, the emperor quickly sighted some lurking servants.
