1571: It Was His First Time Too

It Was His First Time Too

Beitang You sat by the table and gave this some thought. He asked about what Yaoyao had done last night.2

Ling'er reported every detail to him about what transpired.

There was a slight change in Beitang You's expression when he found out Yaoyao gulped down multiple cups of water and gargled extensively when she returned to the room after their meal.

"Alright, you may leave. Serve the princess well." It took Beitang You quite a while to snap out of it and he waved Ling'er away.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ling'er retreated.

Beitang You leaned his forehead against his palm and smiled a little bitterly. It sounded like Yaoyao did not like his kiss at all.

Was his technique that bad?

It was his first time too.

He felt a little regretful about not being able to give Yaoyao a good impression and first experience.

When Chen Jin saw the troubled look on his face, he could not help asking, "Are you feeling troubled over Princess Yaoyao?"

Beitang You hesitated before nodding. "Yes. Do you have any good ideas?"

Chen Jin was taken aback, then shook his head. "No."

"Why speak up when you have nothing for me?" Beitang You was exasperated.

Chen Jin was lashed at for no reason.

He was just a eunuch in a guard's uniform, how would he know anything about relationships?

However, as a eunuch and guard serving right next to His Majesty, Chen Jin could not be incompetent. So, he said, "Even though I have no idea about relationships, there must be books written about them. Why not let me search for a few books of leisure for you to be enlightened with?"

Beitang You nodded. "Just as well."

Chen Jin was motivated to resolve this when his master agreed to his idea. He even took the effort to round up his good buddies and discuss a plan for this.

"Do any of you know any books that teach you how to woo a lady?"

Even though his buddies were not eunuchs, they were not married yet and had never even touched a lady's hand. All of them were baffled when their superior presented them with this problem.

Chen Jin knew none of them had any ideas when he saw their reaction, and he said brusquely, "What's the use of all of you? You can't even help with a small problem."

"We haven't even held a lady's hand before. How would we know anything about this? Why don't you wait for us to snag ourselves a wife first? Once we have the experience, we'll answer you." One of the guards smiled cheekily as he said this.

Chen Jin kicked him. "Can a bear like you even manage to win over a woman? The trees would have wilted by the time you get a wife."

The guard mumbled, "How can you look down on me like that?"

Everyone laughed out loud.

It was at this moment when one of the guards smacked himself on the head and said, "Chief, my younger sister reads a lot of these leisure books. She must have a book about relationships. How about I steal one for you?"

"What are you waiting for, then?" Chen Jin did not hold much hope, but rather than searching blindly for one, it was best that he tried his luck with them. He might somehow be able to locate such a book for his master.

The guard immediately accepted the order to 'steal' that book from his house.

The next day.

Beitang You left for the imperial court at the break of dawn. Yaoyao had slept early the night before and she woke up early today.

She stayed in the side hall, which was right next to Beitang You's bedroom. She heard Beitang You leaving for the imperial court and decided to get out of bed since she was no longer sleepy.

Ling'er immediately brought a basin of water to Yaoyao to help her clean up when she saw Yaoyao had woken up so early. She did not dare delay for even a second.

If everything went well, this Great Shang princess in front of her might become the future Empress of the Yan Kingdom. She had to be completely alert when serving Yaoyao.

Once Yaoyao was done cleaning up, a hot breakfast was already served on the table.

When she saw this, Yaoyao gave Ling'er a grateful look.

It was still early after she was done with breakfast. So, Yaoyao decided to take a walk in the imperial garden with Ling'er accompanying her.
