At this time, someone walked in, and a charming female voice was heard first: "You are so bad - why are you in this place..."
Then came a deep male voice: "This kind of place is exciting, baby, don't you like it?"
The woman smiled, and clung to the man as if she had no bones, the two of them were as close as glue.
The man took off his outer robe and placed it under the woman, then he advanced on her...
There were two little figures squatting under the bright yellow tablecloth hanging from the altar over there. Jiang Muyu quietly lifted a corner and stared at them intently until everything went dark before his eyes.
It was Xia Qingchen who covered her eyes with her hands.
She pulled his hand away in dissatisfaction, turned around and was about to say something, but he covered her mouth again. She could only stare at him helplessly.
The space under the altar was very small, and the two of them squatted together, her back almost completely pressed against his chest, so close that his warm breath sprayed on her neck as he spoke in a low voice.
"Don't talk, or you'll be discovered."
Jiang Muyu felt that even if they were discovered, it would not be a big deal. She was at most food on the altar, and those two were actually having an affair here so blatantly. Even if they were to be punished, they should be the first to be punished.
Xia Qingchen saw her eyes rolling around and understood what she was thinking. He said in a low voice, "This man is Prince Jing."
Prince Jing has always been lustful, and it is unexpected that he would even have an affair in the palace, and in a place like the royal ancestral hall, which is really disrespectful to the ancestors.
Jiang Muyu knew that he and Prince Jing were not on good terms, and thought, wasn't this a good opportunity to deal with Prince Jing?
Xia Qingchen added: "It's not appropriate for the two of us to go out in our current situation."
Since he said so, she had to put aside her thoughts for the time being.
At this time, the action had already started over there, and the sounds came one after another.
Jiang Muyu and Xia Qingchen blushed at the same time, looked at each other, and then covered each other's ears tacitly.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but Jiang Muyu's hands were sore from holding them up. The action over there wasn't over yet. She felt a little numb after getting used to it, so she simply let go of her hands and turned sideways.
Xia Qingchen was startled and wanted to cover her eyes to prevent her from seeing the scene, but he saw her facing him and reaching her hands upward without looking back.
After a while she grabbed two pieces of cake, put one in her mouth and handed the other to him.
Xia Qingchen: “…”
He is still thinking about food at this time. He is really a foodie.
Jiang Muyu was listening to the noise outside while eating the cake in his hand, and his mind was actually wandering.
She had seen her aunt bringing a man home before. She was just curious and secretly watched for a while, but was then taken away by the neighbor's brother by the back of the collar.
He also told her: "Don't look at anything inappropriate."
Xia Qingchen looked at her dazed expression, and suddenly pinched her face hard with mischief.
She came back to her senses in an instant, glared at him and was about to curse.
He raised his finger to his lips and made a "huh" gesture, and she held back her tears. Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears and she looked aggrieved.
It was rare for Xia Qingchen to feel a little guilty.
At this moment, the outside stopped.
The two people's attention was diverted in an instant.
The woman leaned against Prince Jing delicately, her voice as charming as a fairy: "When your business is done, please don't forget me."
Prince Jing said, "How could that be? No matter who I forget, I will never forget you, my dear Yu'er."
As he said this, he leaned over and kissed her soft body. The woman cried out softly, her voice so charming that it melted his bones.
Jiang Muyu: “…”
Xia Qingchen: “…”
The two of them sat on the ground and talked sweetly for a while before they put on their clothes and left.
It was not until the sound of the door closing was heard and a while later that they crawled out from under the altar.
Jiang Muyu's legs were numb from squatting so much that she sat down on the mat and rubbed her legs. She cried and said, "I feel like there are a lot of ants crawling on my legs."
Xia Qingchen's legs were also numb, but he was very patient. After sitting down, he even reached out to rub Jiang Muyu's legs, saying disdainfully, "I really admire you. You can still eat in this situation."
"Why can't you eat? Just treat it as an action movie..." At this point, she paused and smiled strangely and cunningly: "I just calculated that there was a long gap between them, a total of two times, and Prince Jing only took less than a quarter of an hour each time."
Xia Qingchen's face flushed, and he was so annoyed that he stuttered: "You, you, you are still timing?!"
"Uh... can't I? There's nothing else to do anyway."
"Of course not! He is a stranger. Why would you, a girl, care about this?"
Jiang Muyu blinked, confused: "But, aren't you also a stranger? I even slept in the same bed with you."
"I...of course I don't count." He looked away.
Jiang Muyu's eyes lit up and he moved closer to him: "Wow-Achen, your ears are so red, like roasted pig ears."
The next second, she received a slap in the face.
She held her head and cried, "Wuwuwu...why did you do it so hard?"
"I told you to be rude!" Xia Qingchen pulled her collar and dragged her away without mercy: "It's not appropriate to stay here for long."
When the two returned to the East Palace, Jiang Muyu was arranged by him to wash and bathe.
When she came back after washing, she saw Xia Qingchen standing at the door of the main hall with his hands behind his back, and a woman was kneeling on the steps below him.
When she looked closely, she found that it was the woman who had had an affair with Prince Jing in the ancestral hall just now. She had seen the light pink bellyband embroidered with birches before, which had been thrown at her feet before.
Yes, at this time the woman had been stripped of her outer coat and was kneeling, wearing only a bellyband and a pair of fur trousers. Her long hair was disheveled, there were whip marks on her arms, and blood on her lips. It was obvious that she had just been tortured.
Jiang Muyu walked up to Xia Qingchen and asked curiously, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Xia Qingchen glanced at her. The little girl had just finished bathing and was emitting a fragrant scent. She was wearing a cute little dress with a goose-yellow cloak on the outside. Her long hair was loose and the ends of her hair were still a little wet.
He frowned: "Why don't you dry your hair?"
"Leave it alone for a while and it will dry up naturally."
"No, go and let the maids strangle you before you come out."
She wanted to refuse, but when she saw his serious expression, she immediately gave in and pouted: "Okay, I'll go."
Jiang Muyu was taken into the main hall by the palace maid to have her hair tied up. She came out only after all the water in her hair was tied up dry.
At this time, there was one more person in the Eastern Palace—Prince Jing.
I don’t know what they said before, but I could see that Prince Jing looked extremely bad. He glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground, who was looking at him hesitantly, so he had no choice but to turn his back.
After a moment, he said, "This girl is at the discretion of the Crown Prince."
Jiang Muyu shook his head and said, "You call me baby when you are in love, but when disaster strikes, we all run away."
