After Being Forced to Marry a Tyrant of the Enemy Nation - Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Feng Junyi Is Very Handsome When He’s Reviewing Memorials to The Throne

“…”

Su Nuan blushed and quickly hid her body in the tub.

I know we haven’t reached puberty yet, but shouldn’t he understand the difference between men and women?

Even if we are husband and wife, that is not allowed.

Su Nuan looked at Feng Junyi with big eyes and replied seriously, “Nothing, you heard wrongly just now.”

Feng Junyi immediately glanced at the little girl.

He had heard her clearly just now. She had said that a swim ring around her stomach. Now, she was insisting that there wasn’t.

Moreover, he was amused by the way she was hiding her body in the water.

.

He said coldly, “You don’t have to be afraid, Empress. After all, your body isn’t as good as mine. There’s no need to hide.”

Su Nuan inhaled sharply. Look at that, look at that! How can he say that?

She knew that he was right, but she couldn’t believe he said it out loud. But, most importantly, she could not be angry at him.

Hence, Su Nuan puffed up her cheeks and finally said, “Even so, I’m still a young lady…”

She looked at him with an aggrieved expression.

Feng Junyi was a little flustered by the little girl’s gaze, and he even felt an inexplicable sense of unease. His back became a little stiff, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment. “I still have something on, so I’ll head out first. If you’re done bathing, then get dressed quickly.”

He then walked out in an unnatural gait.

That’s good. He shouldn’t have entered while I was bathing.

After Feng Junyi left, Su Nuan was afraid that he would return, so she quickly washed up and put on her clothes.

She was still full of regret. She had long recognized that she should have eaten less, but she still could not control her mouth.

When she returned to the main hall, Feng Junyi was still waiting for her.

Su Nuan felt her heart skip a beat. She didn’t know why Feng Junyi was waiting for her so persistently.

She stepped forward and asked with a smile, “Big Brother Emperor, why are you looking for me?”

“Come here.”

Feng Junyi only glanced up at her briefly, uttering these two words indifferently.

Su Nuan did not question him. Instead, she walked over and stood beside him.

Feng Junyi continued monotonously, “I have a headache after today’s morning audience. Give me a massage.”

Su Nuan was slightly surprised. This was the first time Feng Junyi spoke to her in such a tone.

Perhaps it was because his headache had gotten worse, but his face was even paler than before. His skin was so fair that even the veins on his forehead were visibly bulging.

She suddenly felt sorry for Feng Junyi.

He’s been through a lot. Even now…

Su Nuan knew that Feng Junyi often went out in the middle of the night to review memorials to the throne and read military strategies and various books. He was young but often stayed up late.

With such lifestyle habits, even if he wasn’t killed by Su Qinghan at 23, he would probably die young due to poor health.

At the thought of this, she placed her fingers gently on his burning temple and rubbed it gently. She did not dare to use too much strength, but she also could not use too little strength. As she watched Feng Junyi gradually relax and enjoy himself, she realized her strength was probably just right.

After rubbing for a while, Su Nuan heard Feng Junyi say, “Alright, I’m much better now.”

He pushed her hands away and stood up, quietly staring at Su Nuan in front of him.

“Big Brother Emperor, what are you looking at?”

Su Nuan spoke because she noticed that Feng Junyi was feeling much better.

Feng Junyi’s expression was so scary just now. She was afraid that he would drag her out of the room and chop off her head if she said anything wrong.

“Looking at you,” he replied.

He was indeed looking at this delicate and soft little girl.

As he stared at her, his gaze landed on her body.

Su Nuan panicked when she saw Feng Junyi’s line of vision move down.

She suddenly remembered mentioning gaining weight when she was bathing earlier.

Moreover, she had walked to the bronze mirror to look at herself after she got dressed. It seemed like she had really gained weight.

Now that Feng Junyi was staring at her, she was afraid that he would notice.

She thought that since the weather had already turned cold, perhaps he didn’t notice the extra fat she had covered under her clothes and was just daydreaming.

Just as she was thinking this, Feng Junyi asked, “Have you gained weight recently?”

Su Nuan immediately retorted, “No. Where did I gain weight? Big Brother Emperor, you saw wrongly. I’ve been sleeping a lot lately, so I’m a little swollen.”

“Oh…”

Feng Junyi glanced at her with his beautiful phoenix eyes. “Oh, the swelling is quite even. Since you have nothing to do, why not come to the imperial study with me to grind the ink?”

???

The swelling is even? Forget it. If it’s even, then let it be even.

“You’re not coming yet?”

Feng Junyi took two steps and stopped when he saw that Su Nuan was not following him. “Ah,” Su Nuan blurted out and quickly followed after him.

This was the first time Su Nuan came to the place where Feng Junyi approved memorials to the throne.

She couldn’t help but click her tongue when she saw the thick stacks of memorials on the huge desk.

The imperial study was also filled with books. There were all sorts of books, from astronomy to geography.

She hadn’t expected the violent little tyrant to be a book-loving person.

Feng Junyi saw her surveying the study and left her at it, taking a seat in front of the desk.

Su Nuan noticed that some of the books on the bookshelf were placed upside down and was about to arrange them for Feng Junyi when she heard Eunuch Wang explain, “Your Majesty, the books that were placed upside down are books that the Emperor has already read. If you rearrange them, you will mess it up for the Emperor.”

Su Nuan clicked her tongue when she heard this. She looked around curiously. He had already finished reading two-thirds of the books on the wall. If it were her, she would not be able to finish even one-third of the books, let alone two-thirds.

She smiled awkwardly to show that she understood. Then, since she was here to grind the ink, she walked to Feng Junyi’s side and started grinding it with the grinding stone.

Feng Junyi, who was reviewing the memorial to the thrones seriously, was very handsome.

Although he still looked cold, he appeared less bloodthirsty and looked more serious and diligent.

If we look past the part about loving people, he will be a good Emperor. He will definitely be diligent with government affairs.

Curious, she peeked at the memorial to the throne that Feng Junyi had only briefly skimmed through and almost laughed out loud.

There weren’t any major national events written in the memorial to the throne. Instead, it simply described the weather and then greeted Feng Junyi.

Then, she read another that was placed next to him. A minister had accused another minister of marrying yet another concubine.

Su Nuan could not help but click her tongue. She did not dare to say that Feng Junyi’s temper was bad anymore. If she were in his position, she would have definitely rounded the two fools up and snapped their necks.

Just like that, as Su Nuan ground the ink, Feng Junyi reviewed memorials to the throne. Su Nuan did not know how much time had passed, but she felt that her waist and hands were aching after a while.

However, the memorials to the throne kept coming one after another, as if never-ending.

As Feng Junyi continued reviewing them, Eunuch Wang approached and announced, “Your Majesty, Lord Jiang, Lord Liu, and Lord Chen request an audience.”
