Chapter 21 New Year's Gift

Song Huaixi was so frightened that he trembled and quickly hid behind Zhao Fangye.

Before he could even take a step away, Zhao Jingshuo flew out from his sight.

Suddenly, Song Huaixi widened his eyes and looked at Zhao Fangye who stood up and calmly adjusted his clothes.

"Wow, you are so awesome! Zhao Fangye! You are like a hero!"

Running to his side, the sticky feeling that had just been coveted was kicked away by Zhao Fangye. The dark eyes were filled with Zhao Fangye's tall figure.

Song Huaixi's eyes were bright with admiration and trust.

Zhao Fangye stepped forward and pulled him behind him. The voice was gentle: "Close your eyes."

Although he didn't understand, Song Huaixi still closed his eyes obediently.

The person on the ground held his stomach and curled up like a frightened millipede. Zhao Jingshuo's body had been hollowed out by long-term indulgence in sensual pleasures.

Zhao Fangye's kick was so powerful that he wouldn't be able to get out of bed for ten days or half a month.

He walked forward and looked down at the person lying on the ground like a pile of mud. The scene of humiliation I once suffered came to my mind.

However, he was not angry because of the humiliation he had suffered in the past.

His boot stepped on the hand that he had just tried to reach out to Song Huaixi.

"What are you doing? I am the crown prince. You bastard! How dare you do this to me?"

Zhao Jingshuo realized his intention and became furious.

But he had just been kicked and he had no strength left due to drinking.

They could only allow Zhao Fangye to slaughter them.

Despite this, that face still had a vicious look and he kept uttering foul language.

Zhao Fangye remained indifferent to his insults. He rolled up mercilessly with his feet, crushing his finger bones and wrists one by one.

Her light-colored eyes turned dark and she was determined to cripple his hand.

"ah!!!!!!!!"

Zhao Jingsuo's scream attracted all the girls in Qimeng Tower, but it was dark at night and they didn't know that the person lying on the ground was the crown prince.

They all lay on the fence, just to watch the fun.

"You bastard! How dare you!...Ah!!!!"

Zhao Jingshuo crawled on the ground, grabbing Zhao Fangye's shoes tightly with one hand, trying to break free. No matter how he struggled, Zhao Fangye didn't move at all.

His already frail face turned deathly pale, and he was sweating profusely from the pain.

Listening to the screams, there was no expression on Zhao Fangye's face. His thin lips were tightly pursed and his whole body was filled with coldness.

Adjutant Sun, who was driving a carriage, saw this scene and saw that the person under his feet was actually the prince.

He was horrified and ran over to persuade him: "Your Highness, Your Highness, please be cautious. Consider the overall situation."

They had just returned to the capital, and the various forces had not yet gained a foothold. There are many people on the streets now, and it is also a period of house arrest. If this gets out of hand, it will definitely be very unfavorable to Zhao Fangye's situation.

He withdrew his foot from his hand and kicked Zhao Jingshuo, who had fainted from the pain, away from the ground.

Zhao Fangye's tense face relaxed slightly. He looked at Adjutant Sun and ordered, "Deal with it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Song Huaixi covered his eyes and only heard shrill screams. I was a little scared but I still didn't take my hands off my eyes.

Seeing that he was behaving well, Zhao Fangye walked up to him, picked him up and carried him towards the carriage. Halfway through, Song Huaixi wanted to let go of her hand.

Zhao Fangye stopped him: "Don't look, it's dirty."

After returning to the palace, Song Huaixi, who was tired from shopping, quickly forgot about the farce that had just happened. He has one very good quality.

That is, never keep unhappy things in your heart for long.

Curled up on the bed, Song Huaixi waited for Zhao Fangye to get on the bed and lie down, then she pulled his hands away and skillfully put herself into his arms.

She fell asleep holding Zhao Fangye in her arms, feeling satisfied.

With the help of the candlelight beside the bed, Zhao Fangye carefully looked at Song Huaixi's sleeping face. She reached out and pinched his still chubby face.

The way Song Huaixi defended him today came to his mind. Zhao Fangye's heart, which had been silent for many years, came back to life today.

The young boy who was once in despair finally got his redemption after many years.

Carefully tracing Song Huaixi's eyebrows and eyes, Zhao Fangye felt a little panic in his heart. Can this little fool really see through his own heart?

He didn't think the little fool knew what their relationship was now.

In Song Huaixi's heart, perhaps he just sees himself as his family member.

That's all.

But Zhao Fangye was no longer satisfied with such a relationship and wanted more from him.

Her fingertips lingered on his crimson lips, and her pale eyes were dim.

He had promised him, and now that this was the case he couldn't go back on his word.

The next morning, Song Huaixi took out the things he bought yesterday.

The table was piled full.

She rummaged around on the table, took out a package and handed it to Aunt Zhang: "Aunt, this is the New Year's gift I bought for you. It's a thick cloak. You're old, so make sure you keep warm."

Nanny Zhang felt warm in her heart and took it with both hands, saying, "Princess, you are so thoughtful."

Then he found two brocade boxes and handed them to Chunhua and Chaolu respectively: "Chunhua, Chaolu, these are for you."

Chunhua was lively and vivacious, so Song Huaixi picked out for her a flower hairpin made of jade and gold thread, with a flapping butterfly inlaid on it.

Chaolu is a quiet person and doesn't like to dress up, so Song Huaixi picked out a gold-back comb for her.

Both of them were a little flattered. They didn't expect that the princess would prepare a gift for them as well.

He was so grateful that he immediately knelt down to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Princess, for the reward!"

"Don't kneel! Don't kneel!" Song Huaixi hurriedly stepped forward and pulled them both up.

Song Huaixi has always hated seeing people kneeling to him, and he feels very uncomfortable.

Then he picked out a jeweled dagger for Qingshan and Qingyang respectively.

Qingshan and Qingyang usually do not serve indoors.

They are all in charge of the affairs of the outer courtyard. I didn’t expect that the princess still thought about them. Both of them were very touched, and they received New Year's gifts again.

Not only the servants in the main courtyard's bedroom, but also Uncle Wang, Adjutant Sun and the cook received gifts.

Uncle Wang couldn't stop smiling as he held the purple clay teapot given by Song Huaixi. The princess is truly the lucky star of Prince Ning’s Mansion.

Adjutant Sun from the study came to report: "Your Highness has dealt with everything, but the Prime Minister still can't hide it."

Concubine Xiao will definitely not let go of what happened last night. By then, the prince will be in a lot of trouble. Adjutant Sun was really worried.

"No problem."

Zhao Fangye didn't care at all after hearing this. What Concubine Xiao and the others did to him were just some insignificant little things.

Looking up at him, Zhao Fangye had no expression on his face.

My eyes swept across his waist, where I saw a familiar object hanging.

That was the scabbard that Song Huaixi bought with him yesterday.

"Where did it come from?" Zhao Fangye's tone turned cold.

"ah?"

Adjutant Sun was stunned for a moment and noticed that his eyes were on his waist. Only then did he react and said while holding the scabbard.

"This is a New Year's gift from the princess. Uncle Wang and his family also have one."

When he received the scabbard, Adjutant Sun felt that he was not so tired from last night.

When he learned that it was a gift from Song Huaixi, the look in Zhao Fangye's eyes eased. He lowered his eyelashes, somewhat curious about what gift the little fool would give him.

With a hint of anticipation in my heart, I put down the documents in my hand. He said to Adjutant Sun, "Go down."

Then he got up and went to Song Huaixi's yard.
