Chapter 23: Obedience for Less Than Three Seconds

Not recruiting a prince consort?

So what about her conversation with General Huo?

"ah!"

The three of them were completely shocked, and the expressions on their faces were quite interesting. "Why?"

Su Yunyao tapped each of the three men on the forehead, feeling frustrated. "Is there even a reason for this? How could this princess give up the entire forest for just one tree?"

The three of them kept their expressions unchanged, still in shock, their mouths wide open enough to fit an egg.

"Who am I? I think I'm the eldest princess of the current dynasty, the elder sister of the current emperor. Besides the empress, there are thirty-seven beauties in the emperor's harem. As the eldest princess, I can't have fewer than him, right?"

Coral, pearl, agate:???

"As the saying goes, there are only cows that die of exhaustion, but no fields that are plowed to death. Even if this princess dies under the peony flowers, she will still be a romantic ghost!"

Coral, pearl, agate: ...

"Princess, is there such a saying?" Coral asked curiously.

Su Yunyao: ...

That’s not the point!

After a pause, she continued, "The point is, this princess will have many men in the future. I'm giving you three a heads-up first. Be mentally prepared."

"Princess, what about Lord Shen?" Shanhu was shocked.

"Master Shen? Shen Qiu Nian?" Su Yunyao sneered, "Let him do what he wants, cold scrambled eggs!"

Shanhu was puzzled. "Princess, do you dislike Lord Shen less now that you have General Huo?"

"Stop, stop!" Su Yunyao gestured to her to stop. "What do you mean I don't like Lord Shen anymore after I got married to General Huo? It's like I'm falling in love with someone else. Even if I got married to General Huo, it wouldn't stop me from liking someone else!"

coral:……

"Although this princess's dream is to give every man in the world a home, I also have principles. I will never accept a woman like Chen Qiu Nian who has a crush on someone dirty. Who knows what he's kissed?"

She imagined the scene.

She even thinks that what netizens often say, "Your boyfriend's mouth may have kissed his ex's feet," is too conservative!

The laughter of the four masters and servants coming from the Hibiscus Pond once again made Shen Qiu Nian, who was waiting outside, feel a little restless.

He stood up and walked to the door of Hibiscus Pond, pacing back and forth. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he was blocked by Huo Xiao's raised arm.

"General Huo, are you also trying to make things difficult for me?"

"I dare not." Huo Xiao's eyes were dim. "You and I are both officials in the court. We have no grudges against each other. How can I say that I am in trouble?"

"You clearly heard it. The princess would rather chat and laugh inside than come out to see me. Don't you think I can even ask for an audience?" Shen Qiu Nian said unhappily.

"The princess is dressing up inside, so it's inconvenient for her to see you. Lord Shen has been waiting outside for so long, so it won't hurt to wait a little longer."

Huo Xiao's eyes were indifferent. As he spoke, his fingertips touched the corner of his lips. Thinking of the scene in the hibiscus pond just now, the corner of his lips unconsciously raised a slight arc.

Shen Qiunian: ...

"How did General Huo know that the princess was dressing up in there?"

Huo Xiao pursed his lips and slowly closed his eyes. The picture in his mind became clearer...

The door of Hibiscus Pond was pushed open from the inside.

After waiting for the entire night, Shen Qiu Nian's eyes lit up with joy. He saluted politely and said, "Greetings to the Princess. Long live the Princess."

Su Yunyao acted as if she didn't see him at all and walked to Huo Xiao on the other side. "Why are you only wearing an undershirt? Aren't you cold?"

Huo Xiao was startled when he heard this, and slowly stood up straight, "Princess."

Su Yunyao looked at the coat he was holding in his arms, and inexplicably felt angry. "I asked Zhenzhu to get you clothes, why don't you wear them? Why are you always so disobedient?"

Huo Xiao's expression suddenly became somewhat unnatural, and a blush crept up his cheeks silently. "Princess, I am not cold."

"Not cold?"

Su Yunyao didn't believe what he said. She raised her hand and grabbed his hand. His palm was warm, even warmer than hers, but it was definitely not cold.

She was just angry just now, but now she suddenly realized that Huo Xiao didn't deliberately not wear the clothes she asked Zhenzhu to get.

But although Huo Xiao and the emperor are of similar height and weight, Huo Xiao looks stronger and holds his clothes better than the emperor because he has been practicing martial arts for many years.

The inner garment is looser than the outer garment, but when he wears it, the loose inner garment is almost tight to his body. The outer garment must be too small and cannot be worn at all.

Su Yunyao let go of her hand.

The sudden emptiness in his hands made Huo Xiao's eyes tremble slightly.

That tremor was full of loss.

The next second, he watched her unbutton her fox fur cloak and put it on his shoulders.

"Princess, no!"

Huo Xiao's heart suddenly felt hot, and he raised his hand to stop her, "Princess, I'm really not cold. How can I let the princess take off her clothes and put them on me?"

Su Yunyao's face darkened, and she raised her hand to lift his chin. "You really can't be obedient for more than three seconds. Why are you disobeying again?"

Huo Xiao blushed when he saw those gentle eyes, "Princess..."

at the same time.

On the other side, Shen Qiu Nian bowed again and raised his voice, "Princess."

He waited outside for so long, and when he finally saw the eldest princess come out, he bowed and paid his respects to her.

It would have been fine if Su Yunyao had ignored him, but she actually treated him like air and flirted with Huo Xiao in public.

It's simply disgraceful and shameless.

"Why are you shouting so loudly? You're almost breaking my eardrums." Su Yunyao rolled her eyes at him with an annoyed look on her face.

Shen Qiu Nian was stunned by the shouting, his eyes trembled slightly, "Princess, I have something to talk to you about. Can I have a moment to talk?"

"No."

Su Yunyao blurted out the words without even thinking.

This rejection was too straightforward, causing the words on the tip of Shen Qiu Nian's tongue to get stuck in his throat. "Princess..."

Especially at this moment, next to Su Yunyao was standing Huo Xiao, a man with a gloomy face and murderous eyes.

"Princess, you are wearing too little. Be careful not to catch a cold. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it once we get in the carriage."

"good."

Su Yunyao nodded, took his hand, and her fingertips slid naturally through his fingers.

Huo Xiao was slightly stunned, then held her hand, and their palms were pressed tightly together.

Chen Qiu Nian looked at Huo Xiao's back from afar. He was wearing a fox fur cloak that just reached above his knees and looked a little funny.

His eyes darkened and he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart.

Taste it with your eyes, it tastes very spicy!

Why is the eldest princess wearing so little? Doesn’t he have any idea?

Shen Qiunian clenched his hands into fists and quickly followed.

"Princess, I really have something to ask you. Please, considering that I have waited all night, allow me to finish what I have to say."
