In the evening, he quickly left capital, went straight to the summer palace, and entered the Empress Dowager’s resting palace like entering no man’s land. Jiang Rui said, “Lu Xingzhou, you are so daring.”

Lu Xingzhou listened to her tone, but he did not get angry, so he smiled happily: “In this life, half of the courage of the minister is used on Niangniang.”

He approached slowly, considering that he was covered with dust, instead of sitting directly by the bed, he moved a handful of embroidered piers. “The other half let the minister climb to the position where he is today and be able to meet Niangniang.”

When he spoke, he stared at Jiang Rui intently.

Because she was about to fall asleep, Jiang Rui only wore a lotus-colored bedclothes, covered with a thin satin quilt. Lying on her side at this time, her quilt outlines her curves exquisitely.

Her current body is nearly thirty years old and has long been mature. Because she has never given birth, under her plump chest are thin waists and long legs. The wrists exposed outside the quilt are white and clear. People can imagine that under the quilt, the body wrapped in sleeping clothes must be like a pile of snow, as thin as coagulation.

A little obsession appeared in Lu Xingzhou’s eyes, “Niangniang is really beautiful…”

“You came overnight just to say this to me?” Jiang Rui covered her mouth and yawned.

“No,” Lu Xingzhou came back to his senses, chuckled, and shook his head, “The minister originally only planned to take a look at Niangniang, but now that he can say a few words, he should be even more satisfied.”

“In that case, you can leave.” Jiang Rui said indifferently and turned over again, turning her back to him.

Lu Xingzhou said that he was satisfied, but the soles of his feet did not move as if they had taken root, staring at the small pieces of skin exposed on her back and neck with scorching eyes.

No one can ignore this kind of sight. If Jiang Rui wants to sleep, she can naturally fall asleep. But she had a hunch that if she were to sleep like this, this person would be sitting next to the bed all night.

She turned around again: “Don’t you need to go to court tomorrow?”

“The minister has already calculated, and he will return to the capital quickly before Shen Shi time tomorrow, and he will still be in time for the court.”

At the time of Shen, it was three o’clock in the morning, and the chickens had not yet risen. Jiang Rui did not agree: “Come and go in a hurry, why bother.”

“But the minister has not seen Niangniang for a whole day and night. Niangniang doesn’t think about this minister at all?” Lu Xingzhou said softly.

“It’s not like it never happened before.”

Lu Xingzhou said with a smile: “It used to be the past, now is now, of course, it’s different. I am not afraid that Niangniang will be angry. In the past, the Empress Dowager was only the Empress Dowager for the minister, but now she is the person that the minister wants to be close to all the time.”

“Then, how are you going tonight?”

“The minister doesn’t know it either.” Lu Xingzhou smiled and admitted frankly: “Originally, I only planned to see Niangniang, and after seeing it, I either went to the outside palace or returned to the capital immediately.”

Jiang Rui raised her eyebrows slightly: “So it’s my fault to say so, shouldn’t I be awake and ruin your plan?”

“How dare I? Niangniang did not sleep, it is a great blessing for the minister.” Lu Xingzhou said sincerely.

Jiang Rui found another problem, “You said you originally planned to go to the outside palace or return to the capital after seeing it, but now you do not plan to go to both places? So… you want to stay overnight in this palace?”

Lu Xingzhou smiled without saying a word.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Rui thought of something, raised her eyebrows, and extended her tone: “Or, you are going to sit on the side of my bed all night, or even… on my bed?”

Although he did have secret thoughts deep in his heart, when she was said like this, Lu Xingzhou could not help but faintly excited: “Niangniang always surprises this minister. If the minister said yes, what about Niangniang?”

Jiang Rui wasn’t very surprised. She had considered this matter when she realized that he had a need in that area. It’s not the first time anyway, there is nothing to tweak. Although he is missing a certain part, it is harder to think about it than an ordinary man, but with her, this is always not a problem.
