Chapter 376 He's got good taste in choosing a wife like her.

“Hao Xian…” Xiong Er repeated softly, his face full of doubt.

The Imperial Preceptor must have doted on this male favorite so much that he bestowed his own surname upon him—it was an unparalleled honor!

I've never heard of a male concubine sharing the same surname as his master.

Just from this, Yuuji felt a greater sense of respect for his male lover.

Seeing his respectful expression, Xiao Tang's lips twitched, but she didn't bother to say anything and turned to leave.

Watching the Imperial Advisor leave, Xiong Er kept reminding himself that next time he saw Young Master Hao Xian, he should definitely try to get closer to him...

What Xiao Tang did was essentially to regain her status as a princess and return to the Regent's Palace.

When she returned to the palace, Bao Fu and Bao Mei excitedly ran over and licked her toes.

Although it had only taken three days, she felt as if an eternity had passed!

Her life in the royal palace was more comfortable.

Especially last night...

The man's weight on her made the bed creak, giving her the unsettling feeling that he was secretly doing something naughty.

Look at her and him, they are a proper married couple.

You don't need to worry about these things while you're at the Prince's residence!

She ate her lunch with gusto and was overjoyed.

Ruyi and Yanshi exchanged a smile when they saw that she had a very good appetite.

Ruyi said, "Your Highness, did you miss the Prince too much during your three-day absence from the palace?"

Xiao Tang glared at her.

That brat, she's gone astray.

They even started making fun of her.

Ruyi showed no fear, and covered her mouth, whispering, "Your Highness, are we going back to the Imperial Preceptor's residence tonight?"

"Go back to Mao, or not."

She preferred the large bed in the Prince's Mansion and missed Di Jingling's broad and warm embrace even more.

Even the two puppies made her exceptionally happy.

The Imperial Preceptor's residence looked desolate no matter how you looked at it.

Upon hearing this, Ruyi's eyes crinkled with laughter.

Ruyi also disliked the Imperial Preceptor's residence. She felt particularly afraid there whenever night fell.

I'm really afraid that some strange thing might suddenly crawl into the house...

I don't know if it's just psychological, but it's always the same.

After having lunch, Xiao Tang went back to catch up on her sleep.

Last night was equivalent to not sleeping at all.

She's so pitiful.

...

When she was gradually awakened by the sound of turning pages, night had already fallen outside the window.

The sound of turning pages stopped as she woke up.

Xiao Tang immediately sat up.

With a quick glance, I saw Di Jingling sitting not far away, flipping through a book under a candlestick.

The candlelight shone on the man's incredibly handsome profile, softening his usually sharp features.

Xiao Tang yawned lazily and asked him, "When did you return, my husband? You didn't even remind me."

"You're sleeping so soundly, why would I need to remind you?"

He closed the book in his hands.

Get up.

The hem of her clothes brushed against the corner of the table, making a rustling sound.

As he approached the bedside, a breeze blew in from the window, extinguishing the candlestick.

Xiao Tang cried out in surprise as he picked her up, and before she knew it, she was lying on his lap.

He held her on his lap, and as if by magic, he pulled a hairpin from his pocket and tied her disheveled hair into a bun.

The atmosphere was originally one of sweet intimacy, but the man's movements as he tucked his hair in were rather clumsy...

In the end, Xiao Tang really wanted to say: "Let go of that hairpin, let me have it!"

However, fearing she might spoil the villain's fun, she waited for him to stop what he was doing.

After a while...

Di Jingling finally stopped.

Xiao Tang asked, "Did you buy it? Or did you give it to me as a gift?"

"……Um."

[Wow! The main villain rarely gives me anything! This is so rare!]

"I saw this on the street after court today... I just bought it on a whim, do you like it?" he asked casually.

The so-called "casual" purchase must have involved a considerable amount of careful selection.

After all, it was a gift for her.

This was also the first time he had ever bought a hairpin for a woman.

He didn't know what kind of food his daughter Tangtang liked, so he ended up choosing it at midday...

Xiao Tang, of course, knew nothing of this and completely ignored the man's "whatever," got up, looked in the mirror, and smiled with her eyes crinkling.

"I like it, of course I like it!"

Surprisingly, the main villain has quite a good eye for talent.

Too……

He has good taste in choosing a wife like her.

"Husband, have you eaten yet? Let's go eat!"

"Okay." Seeing that she was happy, he naturally felt relieved.

After all, during these three days, whenever they met in the palace, they simply pretended to ignore each other.

She must be angry inside, right?

But who told her to insist on separating from him!

This little girl sometimes needs to be disciplined.

Xiao Tang had just instructed Ruyi to bring in dinner when someone from the palace arrived.

This time, it was Eunuch Tao, who served the Empress Dowager, who came. He saw the Prince and Princess having a meal and exclaimed "Oh!"

"Your timing is terrible, Your Highness and Princess are having a meal?"

"Hmm...?" Xiao Tang bit her chopsticks. "Is there something you need?"

"Your Highness, Her Majesty the Empress Dowager originally intended to invite you both to dine in the palace, saying that the family hasn't had a meal together in a long time."

[Doesn't this sound like a trap?]

I haven't even touched my sweet and sour pork ribs yet, and I haven't even taken a bite of my squirrel fish!

She smacked her lips.

I simply can't resist this sweet and sour flavor.

Xiao Tang stared at the dishes on the table without touching them.

With a smile, Eunuch Tao looked at the silent Regent and said, "Regent, the Empress Dowager said that if it is inconvenient today, you must come tomorrow. After all, we cannot go against the Empress Dowager's good intentions."
