The Princess and Her Rough-Rider Khan-Chapter 562 - 560 How to Compensate? (First Update)
Chapter 562: 560 How to Compensate? (First Update)
Li Xianyun and Yelu Yan had washed up and eaten some food. Yelu Yan leaned against the headboard reading while Li Xianyun sat on the edge of the bed working on soft silk armor.
The two sat quietly together in the large inner chamber, where the only sounds were the turning of book pages and Li Xianyun hooking the iron wire with a golden hook.
Yet, the air buzzed with a sweet scent, filled with the aroma of happiness everywhere.
Yelu Yan looked up at Li Xianyun.
They had been married for a long time, but both were busy with their own affairs, having little time together during the day. Being able to stick close to each other like this was truly wonderful.
Li Xianyun felt Yelu Yan’s gaze, looked up with a smile that revealed her sweet dimples, and continued with her task, "What are you looking at?"
"Looking at why my Xianxian is so beautiful."
"Sweet talker," Li Xianyun laughed.
Yelu Yan casually set the book aside, "Whether I’m a sweet talker or not, why don’t you taste and see?"
With that said, he pulled Li Xianyun into his arms and planted firm kisses on her cheeks, the prickle of his stubble scratching her tender neck and leaving red marks.
Li Xianyun giggled while trying to push him away.
During their playful struggle, Youlan’s voice could be heard from afar, "Master, the Imperial Noble Consort is here, wishing to see the Khan."
Li Xianyun cleared her throat and replied loudly, "Understood."
She pushed at Yelu Yan then, "Husband, let go."
Yelu Yan adjusted the slipping clothes on her shoulders and gave a light pinch to the soft flesh on her chest.
Li Xianyun’s face turned red as she smacked away his intrusive hand and bent down to straighten her clothes.
That morning, subjects had wanted to visit to inquire about his health, but Li Xianyun had turned them away.
She certainly couldn’t turn away Yaduo.
"Can grandmother know?" Li Xianyun asked while adjusting her clothes.
"Shulu Xi should have informed grandmother about the details this morning. Her visit now is likely just for appearances."
Yaduo was getting on in years and would definitely not withstand being upset, so Yelu Yan had not planned to keep her in the dark.
"That’s good then."
Li Xianyun would indeed feel uneasy about deceiving Yaduo.
Once the two of them were properly dressed, Li Xianyun raised her voice, "Let grandmother come in."
Yaduo entered alone and seeing Yelu Yan rise from the bed full of vitality, she felt complete relief.
Both paid their respects to Yaduo.
Yaduo walked over and laughed, "I was nearly frightened to death when Shulu Xi told me."
Yelu Yan laughed as well, "I apologize for worrying you, grandmother."
After some conversation, Yaduo left, and thereafter Li Xianyun didn’t allow anyone else to disturb Yelu Yan.
During that time, Li Xianyun went out to meet Li Rui and Qiu Qianyun.
They must have heard some rumors, and Li Xianyun didn’t want them to worry.
However, the fewer people who knew Yelu Yan was faking his injuries, the better. So Li Xianyun did not make a fuss about it, merely stating that Yelu Yan was injured and was receiving full medical attention.
Li Rui and Qiu Qianyun kept comforting Li Xianyun.
This made Li Xianyun feel even more guilty, so she didn’t stay long and returned to the inner chamber of the Hall of Diligent Governance.
In the following days, Yelu Yan and Li Xianyun holed up in the inner chamber of the Hall of Diligent Governance, enjoying a particularly sweet time together.
Yelu Yan’s techniques became more and more varied, and his words grew increasingly bold. Sometimes the way he spoke was so provocative that Li Xianyun would react just by listening, her lower garments consistently damp, which was embarrassingly arousing.
Yelu Yan, feeling her reaction, was naturally overjoyed.
His woman was indeed delicate, embodying the ultimate bliss of human pleasures.
He played with her in such an extravagant manner that Li Xianyun began to wonder if he had read some forbidden book.
But Yelu Yan was always too busy to spare time for such frivolous things.
Could it be that he was a natural born genius, self-taught without a master?
Then Yelu Yan was truly gifted, understanding her body even better than Li Xianyun herself, easily igniting her passion, and then shamelessly making love to her.
The sensual moans echoed within the inner chamber, lingering for a long time, enough to make anyone blush with embarrassment.
However, Li Xianyun, after all, did not get to taste the younger Yelu Yan.
Whenever she was about to do so, Yelu Yan would push her away and silence her lips with his kisses.
Then he asked her if she had read some books?
Li Xianyun then realized that there really were such shameless acts between men and women.
Trapped in the inner chamber these days, Li Xianyun had complete time to weave the soft silk armor, and she finally finished the intricate task.
One set for Yelu Yan and one for her—no need to share anymore.
Next, Li Xianyun began preparing for the marriage of Jinwu and Youlan.
Yelu Yan, as a man, actually got jealous over this, hugging Li Xianyun and complaining, "Xianxian, you’re so preoccupied with others and don’t care about your husband’s feelings. I couldn’t bear to see you work so hard for our marriage, yet now you’re working hard for someone else’s."
Hearing this, Li Xianyun truly did feel happy, and with a laugh, she turned around, stood on her toes, and embraced Yelu Yan, coquettishly saying, "My Lord, Xianxian is wrong, how about I compensate you?"
Yelu Yan was just teasing her, but to his surprise, he got more than he bargained for. His eyes widened with delight as he asked, "How will you compensate?"
"By committing myself to you, how about that?"
"You should have said so earlier."
Li Xianyun chuckled softly and stood on her toes to kiss Yelu Yan’s lips.
Although Yelu Yan made love to Li Xianyun day after day, always intertwined, he still held back.
He was a man raised on the battlefield, brimming with brute strength and vigorous spirit.
Previously, he could channel his energy through practicing swordsmanship, but now all that strength was stored up, only to be diligently expended on Li Xianyun.
But Li Xianyun was also very delicate, which resulted in him having to restrain his actions.
Now, as Li Xianyun willingly threw herself into his arms, he no longer held back and vigorously made love to her.
After it was done, he saw the tears in the corners of Li Xianyun’s eyes and regretted his actions.
Yelu Yan often found himself in a conflict, wanting to make Li Xianyun cry but also not wanting to make her cry.
Even so, she had been brought to tears several times.
On a few occasions, he became gentler upon encountering Li Xianyun’s sobs, but other times, like a madman, he charged recklessly.
Li Xianyun held him tightly, unable to control herself, and her hands, having lost their measure, left several blood marks on his back.
These blood marks did not cause Yelu Yan pain; instead, they excited him even more, and he became wildly boisterous.
Li Xianyun had seen Yelu Yan’s ferocity, as if he wouldn’t stop until he had nearly killed someone.
While Yelu Yan and Li Xianyun were enjoying their little life together, the world outside was in turmoil.
First, evidence of the Khan of Yue Nation’s collusion with Murong Ce was revealed to the world.
Then, rebellions erupted in several places in the southern part of Houtang due to oppressive taxes, leading to severe reprisals orchestrated by Li Mu, which in turn incited more public outrage.
Murong Ce could no longer contain himself and sent troops to harass the Khitan borders.
Warfare between Khitan and Houliang was imminent.
Faced with the dire situation between the two nations, the Khan of Yue Nation was delighted that a fight was finally about to break out after he had funnelled so much money to Houliang.
But what he didn’t know was that his funds had been intercepted by men sent by Yelu Yan, and not a single coin had ended up in Houliang’s pocket.
