Yan Baomei allowed the naked man before her to remove her veil, slowly moving her lips closer to his. Unexpectedly, upon seeing her appearance, the naked man kicked her off the dragon bed without hesitation, his face showing shock – could her beauty have overwhelmed him?
“You, you’re so ugly! Quickly get out of here!” Ming Lengchen said coldly. This was far too different from the person in the painting; this was clearly a monster! Just thinking about the moment he saw her almost made him faint – it was too ridiculous!
Yan Baomei puzzledly touched her face, only to find it uneven and slightly painful to the touch. What was going on? Wasn’t she supposed to have the beauty she wanted? Could it be… Wuwu! What nonsense is this!!
This was the first meeting between Mei Siyu and Ming Lengchen, a night of serving that was passed in shock and awkwardness!
“Mei Siyu is conferred as Mei Fei, to remain in the Yangfeng Palace for life and not allowed to leave the palace,” Ming Lengchen said coldly. If not for her being the daughter of the prime minister, he would have ordered her execution long ago. Considering Mei Ganfeng’s loyalty to the country, he could only handle it this way for now! He would never allow her to leave the palace, for she was his shame – even if she died, she would die in the Yangfeng Palace!
Having been in the palace for over a month, Mei Siyu was kicked off the dragon bed by the emperor on the night of serving, which was now known by everyone. The Prime Minister Mei was so ashamed that he soon resigned and returned to his hometown.
Everyone would think that Mei Siyu would be heartbroken, and perhaps the previous Mei Siyu would have been, but the current Mei Siyu, with Yan Baomei’s arrival, would not be in a state of despair! Because she is the invincible and lively Baomei!

“Miss, it’s windy here. Let’s go inside,” Xiao Rou draped an outer garment over her mistress.
“Oh, it’s fine. It’s quite cool here. Why don’t you sit down too?” Mei Siyu smiled softly, looking at Xiao Rou. What a cute girl! Having her company made her feel much better.
Xiao Rou could naturally see the difference in her mistress. The previous mistress would never sit in the wind, let alone for an hour! Her speech was also much more forceful than before, no longer weak and timid. Could it be that being kicked by the emperor had damaged her brain? Or made her confused?
“Miss, are you feeling unwell? You seem strange lately,” Xiao Rou expressed her doubts.
“No, I’m fine! Don’t worry, everything’s absolutely normal!” Mei Siyu grabbed Xiao Rou’s worried hand and spoke confidently.
Xiao Rou shook her head, looking at her mistress’s mischievous smile, and walked out helplessly. It must be the flower pollen that changed her mistress’s personality so dramatically. Although she was now somewhat carefree and unrestrained, the feeling wasn’t bad. At least she was no longer constantly worried and melancholic.
She found a comfortable position leaning against a tree by the lake, her feet playfully slapping the calm lake surface, creating ripples.
Just as she was enjoying herself, she was discovered! “Who is so bold as to trespass in the royal forbidden grounds!” A guard rushed towards her, looking fierce and menacing.
Ah, Mei Siyu quickly jumped up, glancing at the guard nearby, ignoring his shout and dashing towards the Yangfeng Palace, when she encountered the first important person in her life!
“Ah, shh, don’t make a sound.” Mei Siyu accidentally bumped into someone, quickly signaling him to be quiet, pulling him behind a rockery and occasionally checking the situation. In the narrow space, they were so close that they could almost feel each other’s breath.
Mei Siyu saw that the pursuing guard had gone far away, or more accurately, had jumped away. Her heart was racing because of his proximity. Now she had a chance to carefully observe the man hiding with her. He wore a black robe, his hair loosely draped over his shoulders, a straight nose, long phoenix eyes, naturally red sensual thin lips, and a tall, imposing figure, at least a head taller than her. Wow, what a beautiful man!
Mu Lengchen’s eagle eyes had been watching this woman who pulled him behind the rockery and was now boldly examining him. He had never imagined meeting such an incredibly beautiful woman! Could she be an immortal who came to the mortal world to enjoy its beautiful scenery!
She was unbelievably beautiful, ethereal, especially those clear eyes that could captivate souls, making people mesmerized. Truly a beautiful creature!
“What’s your name? Why were guards chasing you?” Mu Lengchen asked gently, feeling a sense of familiarity with her. Could this be love at first sight? He really wanted to know her name!
“Um, I’m Baomei. I couldn’t sleep, so I came out for a walk. And you?” she asked in return.
“Haha, me too. You can call me Chen.” “Oh, ah, it’s so cold. I need to go back. Bye.”
Bye? What does that mean? Mu Lengchen was pondering when he looked up, and she had already disappeared into the night, just as suddenly as she had appeared, leaving him overwhelmed!
Mei Siyu walked lightly back to the Yangfeng Palace she didn’t want to return to. Quietly climbing into bed and covering herself with a brocade quilt, she couldn’t fall asleep, constantly thinking about what just happened.
The man she just met was so handsome! In modern times, his physique and looks could make him a world-class supermodel. What a pity there was no one here to appreciate his talent!
She had a strange feeling about him, like she had seen him somewhere before. How weird! Oh, never mind, she needed to sleep, or she’d have panda eyes tomorrow! Mei Siyu comfortably slid into bed and quickly fell asleep.
In the back garden, not only Mu Lengchen was captivated by her beauty, but another person was watching from the shadows, unnoticed. He had noticed her even earlier than the eighth brother, just without the opportunity to approach her!
Her playfulness by the lake, dancing under the moonlight, like Chang’e the moon goddess, her white clothes shimmering in the pure moonlight, making him unable to look away. Her stunning face, graceful figure, light steps, and playful movements were so captivating that no one dared to approach her, afraid of tainting her with mortal air!
This moment of hesitation allowed the eighth brother to take the lead. He couldn’t help but regret – if he had been a step faster, perhaps he would have been the protagonist of that scene! No matter what, he would have her. The eighth brother already possessed rivers and mountains, with beauties in his harem, surely he wouldn’t care about her. He swore to have only her – from the thousands of waters, he would take just one scoop!
Little did he know that a momentary miss might mean a lifetime of missed opportunity! He played with the purple crystal picked up from the ground – could it be their matchmaker?
Looking at the already sweetly sleeping Xiao Rou, Mei Siyu quietly, crossing over her obstacle, tiptoeing slowly towards the door, her heart in her throat, finally achieving her goal – she had regained her freedom!
Mei Siyu followed the route in her memory, searching for her treasure in the vast garden. Her appearance made the one waiting in the corner jump with joy; he had been waiting with a lucky chance, hoping for her graceful figure to appear, and unexpectedly, she truly arrived.
“Miss, isn’t it inappropriate to be wandering here so late?” Ming Leng Yun approached Mei Siyu with a gentle and courteous manner, a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, his deep eyes full of admiration.
Is this place abundant with handsome men? Why are all the men I’ve seen incredibly attractive! Last night’s wild and domineering man; tonight’s elegant and courteous gentleman. Both have a similar feeling, not like ordinary people.
