Bab 48: Women's Body Fragrance
There is intense activity in the palace.
After Zuo Xuanqi made the arrangements, he and Han Wanxiang and the other two waited in the side hall for Dongfang Yuan's arrival.
They have been waiting for half an hour, but there is still no sign of him.
Han Wanxiang is still calm, her face under the veil remains composed.
But the two old women accompanying her can't help but complain.
"Prime Minister Zuo, what important matter do you have that keeps us waiting for half an hour?"
"This is how the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty treats its guests?"
One of the old women questions.
This is simply unreasonable!
Even though they are from the Endless Pleasure Sect, they are still a dominant force.
Just because only the three of them came doesn't mean the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty can afford to stand them up.
"Ladies, please be patient. Let's have some tea first. I will go and see if His Majesty is on his way."
Zuo Xuanqi can only apologize with a smile. Then he feels a headache coming on and goes to Qian Xinrou's palace to see what's going on.
"Hmph!"
"This Dongfang Yuan is truly too arrogant!"
"Half an hour, he really thinks he's the king of the Northern Domain?!"
Another old woman angrily remarks.
As Heavenly Venerable Realm experts from the Endless Pleasure Sect, no one in the Northern Domain would dare to disrespect them like this.
But here in the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty, they are being stood up by Dongfang Yuan. It's only natural for them to be angry.
"It's fine."
"If he wants us to wait, let's see what he's up to."
Han Wanxiang remains calm and takes a sip of tea from the cup beside her.
Not long after, Zuo Xuanqi returns.
"Miss Han, please wait a moment longer. His Majesty is currently bathing and changing clothes, but he will be ready soon."
Zuo Xuanqi apologizes with a forced smile.
He is feeling extremely bitter inside.
Who knows why His Majesty has such a strong addiction.
He goes to the entrance of the palace, but before he can say anything, he overhears something he shouldn't have.
Terrified, he doesn't dare to say a word and quickly returns.
Han Wanxiang and the others listen to Zuo Xuanqi's words and continue waiting in the hall.
And as they wait...
Another half an hour passes.
"Damn it!"
"Zuo Xuanqi! Is your Heavenly Evolution Dynasty playing games with my Endless Pleasure Sect?!"
"Are you having fun making us wait here for an hour?!"
An old woman erupted at this moment, smashing the table next to her with a palm, standing up and angrily shouting without courtesy.
Even Han Wanxiang, though her face was veiled at the moment, her slightly gloomy expression could still be seen.
She couldn't bear the humiliation any longer.
This damn Dongfang Yuan was clearly treating them like monkeys!
"No, no, no!"
"Elder Li, Miss Han, this is a misunderstanding."
"Our Majesty, he... he..."
"Who is making such a loud noise?!"
At this moment, just as Zuo Xuanqi was hurriedly explaining, a young voice rang out.
Outside the hall, a figure dressed in dragon robes slowly walked in, it was Dongfang Yuan.
"Your Majesty!"
"You've finally arrived!"
Zuo Xuanqi's face was filled with excitement, but deep down, she was almost in tears.
"I was bathing and changing clothes, cleansing my dragon body, which caused me to be a little late."
"I hope you all don't mind."
Dongfang Yuan had a faint smile on his face.
Standing on the hall, he looked at Han Wanxiang and the other three and said,
"That Elder Li, at this time, couldn't help but speak with a hint of annoyance, 'Your Majesty sure knows how to pick the timing, but bathing for an hour is a bit too long, isn't it?'"
"But be careful, don't let the water soak off a layer of skin."
Elder Li's face turned black, she didn't believe that Dongfang Yuan had spent the entire hour bathing.
This guy must have done it on purpose.
In an instant, Dongfang Yuan took his seat at the top.
He didn't pay attention to Elder Li's words, his eyes devoid of desire, and he slowly smiled, "I love cleanliness, so the time I spend bathing every day is a bit longer."
"Moreover, today, with Lady Han personally visiting, I must cleanse myself of any impurities, so as to be worthy of Lady Han's gaze."
Dongfang Yuan's sweet words reduced the hostility in Elder Li's words by half.
The focus shifted to Han Wanxiang, naturally leaning towards Dongfang Yuan's side.
Han Wanxiang's eyes, which could enchant the world, looked at Dongfang Yuan.
Her voice was extremely charming, with a hint of playfulness, "Did Emperor Yuan say he was bathing earlier?"
"But just now, when Emperor Yuan passed by Wanxiang, Wanxiang couldn't help but feel that the scent on Emperor Yuan's body didn't resemble the fragrance of bathing."
"Instead, it was more like the scent of a woman and rouge."
Han Wanxiang's face under the veil smiled slightly.
