Thinking, she avoided her gaze. “I was just saying. Don’t take it seriously, Your Majesty.”
Long Yang enfolded her in his arms and gazed at her with his deep eyes. “If you’re willing to serve me tonight, I’ll listen to you and dissolve the harem for you.”
Lu Liangwei was stunned, and her heart started beating faster. After a moment’s thought, she could not help raising her head to look at him.
However, when she abruptly met his hungry gaze, she paused. For some reason, she had cooled down a little from her excitement and delight just now.
Was the Emperor really willing to do it, or was he just reassuring her?
Or maybe he was just acting on impulse, and after this, he would regret what he said today.
Actually, she did not need to care about the other imperial consorts because the Emperor had promised that she would be the only woman in his life.

However, when she saw the Emperor smile at the Virtuous Consort today, she realized that she was actually not that generous and unbothered.
She was unconcerned before because she had not seen any intimate actions between the Emperor and the consorts, and hence she was not worried at all.
However, now that she had witnessed it, she felt slightly anxious and uncomfortable.
Even if she did not see anything, it did not mean that something similar to this morning’s incident would not happen while she was not watching.
Moreover, the imperial consorts had always been eyeing the Emperor, and they might resort to underhanded means to achieve their goals.
What if they got close to the Emperor while she was not watching…
She shook her head, not wanting to think about it.
However, it was undeniable that she cared about those women occupying the title of the Emperor’s consorts.
Although nothing significant had happened between them, they were still the Emperor’s concubines and could be summoned to serve him in the bedchamber any time.
When Long Yang saw the joy in her eyes melt away into still waters, his chest tightened, and he tilted her chin upward. “Why, you don’t believe me?”
Lu Liangwei shook her head and wrapped her arms around his waist of her own accord. She then stood up on her tiptoes, leaned into his ear, and said softly, “It’s my duty to serve you, Your Majesty. You don’t have to trade for it.”
Her words tugged at Long Yang’s heartstrings, almost sending him over the edge. His arms enclasped her waist, and his voice was unbelievably hoarse. “Then are you now willing to…”
Lu Liangwei was about to answer when a rumble came from her stomach.
She flushed. “I’m hungry.”
Long Yang, “…”

He ruffled her hair in resignation. “Then let’s go eat first.”
Lu Liangwei stuck out her tongue sheepishly. She did not mean to ruin the mood. It was all because the Emperor trapped her in the courtyard as soon as they got here, or else she would not be that hungry.
As the party had just arrived at the Cool Mountains today, they had to take a half-day rest before the five-day hunting event commenced tomorrow.
After lunch, Long Yang headed off to the study room to deal with some matters, so Lu Liangwei went to the hunting grounds with Lin Qingyuan.
The hunting grounds were not far off from the temporary imperial residence. Although there were guards at the entrance, the two did not go in and just strolled around the area.
“I heard that Lu Yunshuang got demoted to Lady of Excellence. Is that true?” Lin Qingyuan was the first to ask.
Lu Liangwei nodded. “Yes. She even got confined to the Eastern Palace, and she’s not allowed to leave the place for a month.”
Hearing this, Lin Qingyuan was both pleased and gloating. “Let’s see how she can stir up trouble again..”
