Chapter 149: Private Meeting
Ji Yunshu's ears were very sensitive. She guessed that Zhao Shen had discovered this, so she worked hard on her ears.
Since there was no one else in the room, she simply leaned into Zhao Shen's arms: "Yeah, I'm very tired."
Zhao Shen picked her up and said, "Let's go and rest."
Ji Yunshu had already felt the changes in his body. A man who had just started having sex was a little scary.
She punched Zhao Shen on the shoulder: "You haven't bathed yet."
After a tiring day, she felt refreshed after taking a bath. She ordered hot water as soon as she entered the door.
Hearing this, Zhao Shen paused on his way to the bed, turned around, and carried Ji Yunshu into the bathroom.
"I'll take a shower with you."
Ji Yunshu had a bad feeling, but before he could say no, his mouth was blocked by Zhao Shen's lips.
Her intuition turned out to be correct. By the time everything was over, it was already the middle of the night.
Zhao Shen packed up and carried Ji Yunshu back to bed. She was completely exhausted and lazily wrapped herself in the quilt, with her thick, black hair spread out across the covers.
In the flickering candlelight, her face was gorgeous, revealing a charm that was different from her usual self.
Zhao Shen's Adam's apple rolled slightly on her slender neck, and he couldn't help but lean over and kiss her again.
Ji Yunshu felt numb all over, and she immediately begged for mercy, "I really can't do it anymore. I'll suffer from kidney failure if I continue like this."
Zhao Shen said with a smile: "What nonsense."
As he spoke, he gently massaged the acupuncture points on Ji Yunshu's body, "Do you feel better?"
His strength was neither too strong nor too weak, and it felt very comfortable. Ji Yunshu nodded quickly.
Seeing that she was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes, Zhao Shen said softly, "Go to sleep."
Ji Yunshu felt that she had something important to say, but she was too tired. Thinking that it would be the same to say it tomorrow, she fell asleep.
Zhao Shen waited until she fell asleep before stopping what he was doing, turning off the lights, getting into bed, and holding her in his arms before closing his eyes.
When Ji Yunshu woke up the next day, it was already noon.
She was a little surprised to find herself still in Zhao Shen's arms.
Zhao Shen was an incredibly self-disciplined person. He got up early every day, practiced martial arts and read books, and lived a very regular life.
This is the first time I see him still in bed so late.
She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why didn't you get up early today?"
Zhao Shen had woken up a long time ago, but with such a beautiful girl in his arms, no man would want to get up.
He easily succumbed to his inner thoughts.
His fingers stroked the smooth skin of Ji Yunshu's shoulders and he said lazily, "I don't want to think about it."
Ji Yunshu felt a little itchy from his touch, so she grabbed his hand that was fidgeting on her shoulder and said, "Luckily you're not the emperor, otherwise I'd probably be called a scoundrel who brought disaster to the country."
From now on, the king will no longer hold morning court. Ji Yunshu felt a little scared when he thought about it.
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "Well, since I'm not the emperor, I don't need to care about what others say."
As he said that, he turned over and pressed Ji Yunshu under him.
His slightly cool lips fell on her ear, and Ji Yunshu felt her scalp tingling. Unable to resist, she gritted her teeth and said, "...You will really suffer from kidney deficiency if you do this."
Zhao Shen bit her earlobe, which was red as if it was about to bleed, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, madam. I am in good health."
This whole ordeal lasted for more than half an hour, and when the two of them got up, it was already past the hour of Si.
Ji Yunshu sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror. Her eyebrows and eyes were bright and charming, like a fairy who had absorbed enough energy.
Although Zhao Shen was considerate of her feelings on the bed, he did not restrain himself. Her skin was fair and delicate, and many marks were left on it.
Lu Ru was combing Ji Yunshu's hair. Seeing the marks on her master's body, she couldn't help but complain, "The prince really doesn't know how to be gentle with women."
She and Lan Yin had been in the palace these days, and only returned to the Marquis' Mansion with Ji Yunshu yesterday.
I don’t know how the relationship between the two masters has progressed rapidly these days.
He was originally very happy to know that the Madam and the Prince had consummated their marriage, but when he saw the marks on Ji Yunshu's body, he couldn't help but complain about Zhao Shen.
Yin Ye just happened to come in. After hearing this, she laughed and teased, "The prince is too compassionate to women, that's why he treats his wife like this."
Ji Yunshu glanced at her sideways: "Are you free and have nothing to do?"
Yin Ye smiled and said, "Isn't my mission to protect your safety? I finally got home, and you won't let me rest for a few days?"
Ji Yunshu: "Then why are you running here instead of taking a rest?"
Yin Ye asked, "Didn't you say someone was watching you when you went to the restaurant yesterday? I was afraid someone was going to harm you, so I stayed in the restaurant for half the night. Do you know who came out of that room last?"
Ji Yunshu thought about it. The reason she noticed that gaze was not only because the other person was staring at her, but also because that gaze made her feel uncomfortable, as if it contained endless hatred.
Who in this capital city hates her so much?
Thinking that it was Zhao Shen who had carried her out of the car at that time, Ji Yunshu's mind naturally popped up a person: "Lu Ningshuang?"
Yin Ye was a little surprised: "How do you know?"
Ji Yunshu didn't tell her his speculation, but asked her, "You said you stayed in the restaurant for half the night. What was she, a lady from a wealthy family, doing in the restaurant alone until midnight? Don't restaurants close?"
Yin Ye said with a strange expression, "She wasn't alone, but with a man. They went in through the back door. The man was quite skilled in martial arts and climbed over the wall with Lu Ningshuang back to the Prime Minister's residence."
Ji Yunshu was very surprised: "Lu Ningshuang is having a secret meeting with another man? Who is that man?"
Yin Ye shook his head: "He was wearing a mask, I couldn't see."
When Ji Yunshu heard the word "mask", his heart sank.
The masked man that Suzhou had seen seemed to have disappeared into the sea, and no matter how hard he looked, no trace of him could be found.
Now a masked man appeared in the capital and met with Lu Ningshuang in private.
Could it be him?
She unconsciously tightened her grip on the hairpin in her hand and asked again, "Where is that person? Did he enter the Prime Minister's residence and never come out?"
Yin Ye shook his head: "Well, I asked someone to keep watch before I came back, but there is no news yet."
Ji Yunshu nodded to show that he understood, but he didn't hold much hope.
If it really was that person, even the lone traveler would have lost track of him, let alone Yin Ye.
There were many things to do when she just got back, and she didn't have the time for it. She was already hungry, so she got up to eat.
Seeing that the marks on her neck were still obvious, Bai Ling handed her a small porcelain box. "The prince specifically instructed me to make this ointment. Madam, apply a little on the visible marks. They will fade quickly. For the invisible marks, forget about them. They won't cause any trouble."
Ji Yunshu felt that even though they were in their own yard, it would be disrespectful if the servants saw it, so he asked Lu Ru to apply it on him.
At the same time, she finally remembered another important thing: "Can you help me get some contraceptive medicine?"
Bai Ling was startled: "What does Madam want contraceptive medicine for?"
The Crown Prince and his wife consummated their marriage half a year after their marriage. The Crown Prince is not young anymore and is the heir to the Marquis' Mansion, so he must want to have a child as soon as possible.
Ji Yunshu felt that the body was still too small and not suitable for giving birth.
But she knew that in this era, most girls got married at the age of fifteen, and the average childbearing age was around fifteen or sixteen.
In people's eyes, she is not young anymore.
So she didn't explain seriously, but just said, "Just help me match it."
Bai Ling disagreed with her approach: "Contraceptive pills are very harmful to your body. If you use them for a long time, you might not be able to get pregnant."
