A Tale of Chase and Love s1

IMPERIAL PALACE.

Spring courtyard.

This courtyard belonged to one of the emperor’s concubines, Han Chunhua, the deceased Han Fei’s step-sister. It had beautiful flowers of various species, shapes, size, and colours neatly and orderly planted around it and was one of the most beautiful courtyards in the palace.

Maids were moving to and fro trying to get their duties done. They were all wearing the palace’s uniform. A blue skirt and yellow shirt designed with flowers. Maids in the palace are required to be at least pretty and smart. Eunuchs also needed to be obedient, hard-working and smart too regardless of their appearances.

The emperor currently has 9 concubines and one imperial concubine but he has not gotten an empress yet. The concubines were

Bai Lifen, 2nd daughter of the 3rd richest merchant Bai Feng.

Hong Liu, eldest daughter of the prime minister.

Zhang Meili, 5th daughter of general Zhang

Chen Dai Yu, the only daughter of scholar Chen.

Hong Meihui, 2nd daughter of chieftain hong.

Da Meixiu, 3rd miss of the Da family.

Jian Luli, daughter of the minister of finance.

Fan Dandan, 2nd miss of the Fan family.

and finally the imperial concubine Han Chunhua.

Fa Changying, daughter of general Fa Longwei is the newly married 9th concubine.

This spring courtyard has 8 maids and 4 eunuchs.

Sitting in her bedroom, dressed in a pink gown was Han Chunhua who was daydreaming about the emperor penetrating her tonight.

She had been his favoured one since the day she married into this palace after her ugly sister.

She was very beautiful and had long black silky hair and very nice curves that showed no matter what she wears. She also had good boobs that made the emperor wanna put his cock between them and so she made sure that every time he came be it day or night her boobs were ready for work.

There was suddenly a light knock at the door bringing Chunhua to reality.

She was not happy at all.

“What is it?” she barked.

“Could you please open the door?” said a gentle voice.

That voice was very familiar to her. It’s the emperor’s voice.

Realizing that fact, she quickly arranged her clothes and sent some of her spirit energy to the door which immediately opened and she knelt.

In, came a guy whose face was covered in a mask. He was wearing a red dragon robe and his hands were behind his back.

“This lowly concubine greets his majesty” she greeted while bowing her head.

Normally, he never allows her to finish her greeting before using a stripping spell on both of them and forcing his jewel into her mouth.

But today, he let her finish greeting but did not even answer.

He only walked to her bed and began to sniff around the bed.

Han Chunhua’s heart nearly jumped out of her chest.

“Don’t tell me he has found out.” she thought in fear.

While she was thinking of a way to escape, the emperor slowly took off his clothes leaving only his pants and turned to a confused Chunhua.

“So my concubine, how ’bout I punish you today?” he asked.

Chunhua was scared as she just realized that the emperor had a tail.

Wait! She had never seen him before with a fox’s tail and what’s that tattoo on his shoulder and even his voice… that’s not the emperor…

“It seems I got scared for nothing.” Chunhua sighed in relief.

“You are not Him right?” she asked

“Now you know, don’t you feel foolish all this while? Your emperor has long been dead since the day he married Fa Changying. So simply put, you have been sleeping with a beast. How is that? Do you like my present?” the man asked with a smile.

This smile revealed fangs and teeth stained with blood. Chunhua wanted to faint.

“No! No! He isn’t dead. He cannot be dead.” she screamed.

“Don’t bother screaming as no one will hear you. Don’t you like me penetrating you so much? I’ll fulfil your dreams once more.” said the man who laughed evilly.

“No! It can’t be. No…” she screamed when the man fired a stripping spell unto her clothes which immediately vanished.

“Now baby, don’t be afraid. I will be gentler than on the day we got married.” said the man who was completely bare right now.

“Come and let me make you scream like you always do?” the man said again.

This time he transformed into a horse and neighed.

“Now come here” he barked.

“No! No! “Chunhua ran towards the door but found it locked.

“Today, you will feel my true power” he barked again as he galloped towards Chunhua.

It was at this very moment that a man appeared in the room.

He had fangs and a horse’s tail.

“Big bro, why didn’t you call me for the feast.? when you’re done please fetch me her brain,” said the man.

“Yes little bro”

“Nooooo”

A loud scream resounded throughout the spring courtyard. The two maids who had been standing guard outside rushed inside in panic to see Han Chunhua breathing heavily.

The two pretty maids who just rushed in were concerned.

“Madam! Are you alright?” they asked in unison.

“Water! I… I need water,” she said in a whisper.

“Lan, go get madam water” ordered the maid wearing a ponytail.

The other one who had two ponytails nodded and dashed out of the room as fast as she could.

The one remaining was Lihua who was lightly massaging Chunhua’s shoulders and back.

“Miss, calm down. It’s just a nightmare. Not real” she pacified but Chunhua was still shaking like a leaf.

“Li Hua! Get the emperor please” Chunhua said with a semi-order, semi-request tone.

“But Madam, his Majesty should be in a meeting with the officials right now.” said a reluctant Li Hua.

Even though madam was the favoured one, it didn’t mean that she could be free from severe punishment or death if she angered His Majesty.

“Fine! Just… just get lost and tell Lan not to bother with water.” she barked.

“But madam … you’re not okay. I…” Li Hua was cut short by her madam.

“You wish me death right?”Chunhua asked.

“No… madam, it’s not like that…”Li Hua tried to explain but Chunhua had no time for that.

“GUARDS!” she roared

In less than 12 seconds, 2 able-bodied guards dressed in black and red rushed in and went on one knee, heads bowed.

“What is your wish Madam?” they asked in unison.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“This girl is evil. Flog her 20 lashes of the bull rod”Chunhua barked.

“Yes madam!” the guards shouted in unison and dragged a pleading Li Hua away.

“Nooo, madam! This is a misunderstanding”She cried.

“Increase it to 70 strokes,” said Chunhua”And make sure you also do that to her accomplice”She added.

“NOOO” Li Hua’s mouth was covered by one of the guards’ hands and was dragged away in a disgraceful manner.
