Chapter 13 She was pulled into the man's warm, firm embrace...
The Crown Prince is determined to make her appear in his dreams. If she's unlucky and doesn't dream of him, wouldn't that confirm that she's just spouting nonsense and creating an air of mystery?
But if she really dreamed about it, the Crown Prince might spare her life out of consideration for her skill, and wait and see if he could use her in the future.
Like this time, Caiju poisoned him, but she accidentally discovered it!
Yun Kui's almond-shaped eyes lit up, and she was no longer pessimistic, placing her hopes on tonight's dream.
Who knows, after tonight, she might become a talented individual under the Crown Prince's command!
She suppressed her excitement, got up to tidy up the tray, and when she returned, the Crown Prince was already sitting by the bed.
Yun Kui then recalled that it was the same last night. Although they didn't go all the way, the Crown Prince still took advantage of her quite a bit. There were still finger marks on her chest from where he had rubbed her, and they hadn't faded yet.
The crown prince stared intently at her and urged, "What are you still standing there for?"
Yun Kui pursed her lips. "Yes."
Based on last night's experience, she shouldn't need to take off so much clothing. After all, the Crown Prince was able to endure the aphrodisiac, so it's reasonable to suspect that he couldn't get up at all, or that he was seriously injured and powerless, and was afraid of being discovered, which would make him lose face.
Crown Prince: "..."
Yun Kui raised her eyes and was startled by the Crown Prince's sinister gaze.
"Why are you suddenly so irritable again..."
"You think I'm taking too long?"
"Did you sense I didn't want to take off my clothes and express your dissatisfaction with your eyes?"
"Fine, let him take it off then, there's nothing he can do about it anyway."
Crown Prince: "..."
Yun Kui took a deep breath, then quickly untied her belt, took off her outer skirt, leaving only a red satin embroidered pomegranate patterned undergarment.
As a palace maid who served the emperor, her clothing also changed from before.
The Imperial Household Department prepared several sets of brand-new autumn and winter dresses for the four of them. The clothes were made of the finest materials, with bright colors and delicate stitching. Although they were not as exquisite as those worn by the imperial concubines, they were still much more refined than those worn by ordinary palace maids.
Naturally, all of this was done to please the Crown Prince, and it also showed the Empress's emphasis on the Crown Prince's sexual life.
Inside the palace, the lights shone brightly, making the girl's fair skin appear even more radiant. The curtains trailed on the ground, swaying gently in the soft, delicate light and shadow cast by the woman.
The early winter night was so cold it made people shiver. Yun Kui suppressed her shivering and slowly hugged her arms, trying to cover herself with something.
She was still very uncomfortable with her body being exposed to the light, even if the lights were off. The hall was brightly lit with candles, which meant she would have to face the Crown Prince's intense gaze for a long time.
How terrifying is it? It's like being woken up in the middle of the night by the cold, opening your eyes to find yourself entangled by a cold, venomous snake, with the possibility of it biting your neck off at any moment.
The thought of that scene is enough to send chills down your spine.
The Crown Prince subtly shifted his gaze from her slender, fair neck, and, showing a rare moment of mercy, ordered, "Turn off the lights in the outer room, but leave one on."
Yun Kui felt as if she had been granted a pardon. She quietly extinguished all the lamps in the outer room, leaving only a glass lamp by the bedside so that it wouldn't be pitch black.
After doing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief and carefully crawled from the foot of the bed to the inside, not daring to touch the man's long, muscular legs.
Slowly lying down, Yun Kui regulated her breathing, secretly glancing at the person beside her, then at the neatly folded brocade quilt at the foot of the bed, and muttered to herself, "His Highness the Crown Prince is indeed a man of steel. Even in such a cold palace, he doesn't burn charcoal, and he doesn't feel cold at all, wearing only a thin undergarment."
"Your Highness, I'm a little cold," she whispered as the Crown Prince's expression relaxed.
The crown prince looked over with a complicated expression, but his gaze paused involuntarily.
Inside the curtained room, the lamplight was dim. The red undergarment made her skin appear even whiter than snow. The girl's cheeks were rosy and smooth, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Her collarbones, beneath her slender white neck, resembled flawless jade bridges. The dim candlelight fell on her rounded shoulders, causing the undergarment to arch too full. The pomegranate pattern on the satin was large and full, and the exposed flesh resembled the pure white snow under the moonlight.
Such a natural beauty, yet she has a pair of innocent and timid eyes that can easily arouse a man's desire.
The Queen really knows how to choose people.
If it were an ordinary man, upon hearing her say she was cold, even the hardest heart would melt, and he would want to hold her in his arms and cherish her.
Unfortunately, he was not the kind of person who indulged in beautiful women.
Yun Kui felt that this gaze was far too long, so long that her hands and feet were starting to go numb. The Crown Prince, who had been expressionless at the beginning, was now exuding a faint air of hostility.
Has it flared up again?
She doesn't seem to have done anything, does she?
All she wanted was to cover herself with a blanket...
"Want to cover yourself with a blanket?" The Crown Prince's cold expression softened slightly. He withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "If you're cold, just pull the blanket over yourself."
Yun Kui quickly replied "Yes," and hurriedly reached for the blanket.
As she stood up, her slender, snow-white back was once again revealed to the man.
The crown prince looked away, his breathing becoming almost imperceptible.
When you close your eyes, your vision is blocked, and your other senses become more acute.
The soft rustling of the bedding against my body was a constant companion, and the faint scent of sunflowers mixed with the smell of the bedding after it had been aired out filled my nostrils. The warm and refreshing aroma filled my mind, and the maddening pain gradually dissipated.
The closer she got, the more comfortable it felt inside my skull.
By the time the crown prince realized what was happening, there was already someone in his arms.
The girl's beautiful face was right in front of him, her dark eyes wide open, her face full of panic.
The crown prince was equally shocked by his own actions.
But... to make the best of a bad situation, they simply didn't let go.
This is his bedroom, his bed, and the maidservants beside him are his bedchamber maids. Does that mean he can't even touch them?
Yun Kui blinked nervously. Just a moment ago, the Crown Prince was coldly telling her to pull the blanket over herself, but as soon as she lay down, she was pulled into the man's warm and firm embrace.
Is it a trick of feigning indifference or trying to catch someone?
I had wanted to hug her for a long time, but I was too proud to do it. I put on a cold face, but I was secretly itching to do it. Finally, I couldn't resist and grabbed her when she wasn't looking.
As her thoughts wandered freely, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed the back of her neck.
Yun Kui was like a snake whose vital spot had been grabbed; her arrogance vanished instantly.
"Your Highness, let's talk this out..."
The Crown Prince warned her in a deep voice: "I am doing this only to make it easier for you to enter my dream and put away those inappropriate thoughts of yours. Otherwise, I will not let you off easily."
I see.
Previously, she didn't understand why the Crown Prince insisted on sleeping in the same bed, and even cleverly took off her clothes. Now she realized that this was just an interrogation by the Crown Prince, only the location of the interrogation had changed from the torture chamber to the Crown Prince's bed.
She shouldn't have any other thoughts; she should just try to enter his dream.
Yun Kui buried her head in his chest, smelling the bitter medicinal scent on his body, and repeatedly uttered the words "Your Highness the Crown Prince" in her heart.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness..."
"Ugh, we don't necessarily have to hug each other when we're dreaming. It's so hot like this, I can hardly breathe..."
"If I try to push him away, could I take the opportunity to touch his pectoral muscles?"
The prince's face gradually darkened. He felt like he was holding a hot potato and wanted to throw her away, but his body seemed to instinctively cling to the warmth emanating from her, and he couldn't bring himself to push her away.
The raised finger didn't actually throw her away; instead, it struck her forehead with a "thud."
"Ouch."
Suddenly struck on the forehead, Yun Kui couldn't help but cry out in surprise. After regaining her composure, her voice softened into a gentle and submissive tone: "Your Highness... why did you suddenly hit this servant?"
Of course, the Crown Prince wouldn't tell outsiders that he could read minds. To stop her from having those filthy thoughts, he simply said sternly, "If you don't go to sleep, I'll knock you out."
Yun Kui: "..."
Who forces someone to sleep?
Besides, she kept her eyes closed quietly and didn't dare to make the slightest noise, so this still won't work?
They're really hard to please.
Afraid of being beaten, she sighed inwardly, banished those chaotic thoughts from her mind, and obediently closed her eyes.
Her breathing gradually evened out. The Crown Prince stared at her for a while, then lowered his eyes to look at his slightly open robe.
He rarely paid attention to this place. In the past, he only knew that women's breasts might be attractive to men. Could it be that women are also attractive to men?
The crown prince frowned, his eyes darkening.
In short, this little yellow girl cannot be allowed to live. As for the aura on her body, we will have to think of another way.
The prince closed his eyes and, amidst the warm and serene fragrance of the person in his arms, drifted off into a peaceful slumber, a rare occurrence for him.
However, the scene in the dream was not very peaceful.
It can even be infuriating.
He actually dreamed about this girl, and unlike the soft and timid girl in reality, she dared to touch him inappropriately! Drooling, she placed her hands on his chest and rubbed them repeatedly.
The crown prince was so angry that he woke up.
At the same time, Yun Kui also woke up.
I was startled awake.
The first thing she saw upon waking was the Crown Prince's gloomy and angry phoenix eyes.
What did she see in her dream? Help...
