Chapter 9: Interrupting the Emperor's Good Times

"Your Ladyship..." Seeing that she would not leave and was merely standing outside the door, the palace maid could not help but urge her in a low voice.

"Shh." Gu Yiyi stopped her from speaking, whispering, "You all withdraw. Don't worry, I won't go in." She would only stand here and listen to the sounds.

The palace maid had no choice but to obey and withdraw, though she did not dare go far. She was afraid that this new 'Ladyship' might not understand the rules and disturb the Emperor; if the Emperor were to vent his anger on everyone, wouldn't they be the ones to suffer the consequences?

Listening to the rise and fall of the sounds, Gu Yiyi calculated that the two inside were approaching their climax when, suddenly, she kicked open the palace doors.

The palace maid nearby felt her heart thud, her face turning ashen. Before she could utter any words of prevention, her eardrums were filled with the tyrant's cold shout.

"Get the hell in here."

Gu Yiyi covered her mouth to stifle a laugh and turned to flee. Tsk, what a joke—just because he said to go in, she would actually go in? She wasn't a fool. When you've done something bad, of course you flee the scene.

Nangong Ye's temper was in a terrible state. On the bed, a certain concubine, whose activities had been forcibly interrupted, looked at him with infinite grievance. "Your Majesty..."

"Get out."

The concubine could only hurriedly put on her clothes and flee the Night Palace in a disheveled state. She had thought she could flaunt her power after tonight, only to be interrupted by someone who didn't know any better. It would be best if she didn't find out who interrupted her good time, otherwise, hmph.

"I said get in here. Are you all deaf?" A voice, now bordering on extreme coldness, drifted from within the hall. The palace maids trembled in fear, yet... not a single one dared to enter.

Nangong Ye casually threw on a robe and walked out, his handsome features frozen in the darkness. "Can you not hear me?"
