Chapter 474 The Prince Didn't Sleep All Night

Neither Yan Jiu nor Yan Shi dared to utter the words "run away from home".

They couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if they said those four words.

The regent might go mad.

It would be no problem to overturn the entire capital.

Seeing the two constantly exchanging glances, Di Jingling lost his patience. "Send men to search! Immediately! If they can't find it, bring them your heads to me!"

After hearing the regent's words, the two dared not say anything more, agreed, and turned to look for the person.

Di Jingling paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, somewhat annoyed.

She had even thought about how to apologize to Xiao Tang after finding him, and had already come up with more than a hundred different ways to apologize.

He came up with every possible way to beg for forgiveness, from carrying thorns on his back to kneeling on a washboard.

...

Neither Xiao Tang nor Ruyi noticed the storm brewing outside the Prince's Mansion.

Xiao Tang, in particular, was sleeping very soundly.

Amidst a torment of various uneasy thoughts, Ruyi gradually fell asleep.

When they were awakened by the noise outside the door at dawn, Ruyi immediately sat up.

Xiao Tang frowned and asked, "What's all the commotion outside?"

Footsteps could be heard constantly outside, and Yan Jiu's shouting could also be heard.

It's not even dawn yet, what's the meaning of this person making a fuss outside?

Yan Jiu shouted from outside, "The princess has been missing all night! Find her now! If we can't find her, we'll all die!"

"Lord Yanjiu, Ruyi and the Princess Consort are usually very close. Why don't you ask Ruyi about it?"

At the guard's suggestion, Yan Jiu seemed to snap out of his daze.

He nodded. "Okay, you guys go look somewhere else. I'll go to Qiaoqiao and Ruyi's door."

After all, although he and Ruyi loved each other, they had never married, so it was inconvenient for him to barge in directly.

When the door was knocked on, Ruyi inside was filled with nervousness.

She opened her mouth, then subconsciously looked at Xiao Tang.

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes, as if he were asking Xiao Tang with his eyes: Your Highness, what should we do?

After all, Ruyi could foresee how serious the current situation was.

The disappearance of the princess has probably already caused a huge uproar outside.

And the princess...

But he casually yawned.

"It's okay, I'll go open the door."

After taking a nap, Xiao Tang was naturally less irritable, and she was in a much better mood now.

As for the mistakes Di Jingling made last night, she didn't want to dwell on them.

She opened the door.

Yan Jiu spoke up urgently: "Ruyi... um?"

The sound stopped abruptly.

He stared at Xiao Tang in astonishment, even a little bewildered and confused.

After a long pause, he stammered, "Your...Your Majesty and Your Highness?"

What's the princess doing here?

Sleeping with Ruyi?

Yan Jiu covered his head, his mind filled with nothing but a frantic scream.

Seeing his Barbie-like expression, Xiao Tang said with a half-smile, "What's wrong? Are you surprised to see me?"

"You... what are you doing here? The prince... he's going crazy."

I've been looking for you so desperately.

Even if Yan Jiu didn't say it, he believed the princess was well aware of it.

Xiao Tang smiled slightly, "I see, then you must be going crazy."

"Um..." Yan Jiu thought, this doesn't seem to be the point.

"Your Highness, the Prince has been searching for you all night and hasn't slept. Please go and persuade him. If this continues, the morning court session will be delayed."

Xiao Tang clicked her tongue: "I just came over to sleep with Ruyi, aren't you making a bit too much of a fuss?"

This is more than just a major undertaking; it's downright exaggerated.

Yan Jiu also agreed with Xiao Tang's words, but simply nodding was not enough.

After all, the prince was never careless or ambiguous when it came to matters concerning the princess.

All he wanted to do now was take Xiao Tang to see the Regent so that he could clearly explain his mission.

Seeing that he was still standing there, Xiao Tang didn't say anything more and walked out.

Yan Jiu remained stunned for only a moment before remembering to catch up with her.

He chased after Xiao Tang, excitedly calling out, "Your Highness, you really must go back and persuade the Prince. He's far too anxious..."

Xiao Tang ignored him.

We really should give them some advice.

The main villain stayed up all night looking for her?

Her heart sank.

Not sleeping is tantamount to staying up all night, and staying up all night has a significant impact on the body...

Therefore, she needs to teach Di Jingling a lesson and give him a good scolding.

When she arrived at the bedroom and saw Di Jingling, she found the table covered with tea leaves.

I don't know how many glasses he drank.

Goodness!

Is it really necessary?

[I just slept with Ruyi, why do you need to drink tea to stay awake and stay up all night?]

Xiao Tang mentally complained, then looked up at Jing Ling's bloodshot eyes, which were red from staying up all night.

This inadvertently reminded her of how he looked when his Gu poison flared up in the past.

He paused, taken aback.

Xiao Tang walked towards him. "Husband, your expression is a bit scary. How about we skip court today and take a nap?"

Otherwise, what would happen if my health collapsed?

Upon hearing her speak, Di Jingling's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly grabbed her small hand.

Because she has already taken the initiative to shorten the distance between them.

He tightened his grip and suddenly pulled her into his arms.

This hug was tighter than ever before.

It was as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones.

Xiao Tang realized that he was about to strangle her to death.

She leaned against the man's chest and gently pursed her lips: "Darling, you don't need to be so nervous."
