As Xuan Di spoke with an air of domineering arrogance, he straightened his outer robe, took a breath of the fresh, moonlit air, and curled his lips into a wicked smile, "This young master's wonderful nightlife has only just begun. Who wants to sleep with that little cutie!"
After saying that, he walked right past Zhuangyou and disappeared. Zhuangyou turned around, wanting to say a few more words, but when she turned around, all she saw was an empty courtyard and a few wisps of night breeze. There was no trace of Xuandi.
If it weren't for the lingering, refreshing fragrance of the young man in the air, Zhuang You would have thought that the young master Xuan Di in front of her was just a figment of her imagination.
"Fifth Young Master!" Can you please be a little more reliable?
Zhuangyou was so anxious she was about to stomp her feet.
As soon as Nanny Jiang stepped outside, she heard Zhuang You's helpless muttering through gritted teeth. She immediately understood what was going on. She walked over to Zhuang You, glanced at the empty courtyard, and asked, "Has Fifth Young Master sneaked out to play again?"
Although the question was directed at Zhuangyou, the tone was already quite certain.
The little baby is always clingy and rarely sleeps alone, especially with her dear Xiangxiang mother. Princess Hengchang was raised by her own mother, and the little baby loves to sleep with her mother the most.
For one or two days out of these ten days, the big bad wolf prince could grit his teeth and bear it, but he clung to his mother to sleep every day. Even though the Prince of Hengchang loved his daughter dearly, he couldn't help but use various excuses to get her to leave.
As for the little girl's older brothers, they were either often away from home or already married. No matter how shameless the Prince of Hengchang was, he would not do something like putting his daughter in his son's bed with his young wife. Therefore, Xuandi, the youngest of the five brothers, became the brother who most often slept with his sister.
Therefore, the people serving the little boy are quite familiar with the Fifth Young Master.
Xuandi would often put his younger sister to sleep in the middle of the night, and then sneak out to play by himself.
Sometimes, when he was caught by his little sister who hadn't fallen into a deep sleep, he could only resign himself to sneaking out to play with her. Of course, if the Prince of Hengchang, who was also awake in the middle of the night, found out, he would certainly be given a beating.
Now that we're in the capital and the Prince of Hengchang isn't keeping an eye on us, Xuandi has become even more unruly.
Zhuangyou sighed helplessly and frowned at Nanny Jiang, saying, "You know, this Fifth Young Master is really something! Back in Hengchang, when we had the Prince and Princess in our own residence, it was one thing for him to abandon our little princess and sneak out to play."
Zhuangyou grew increasingly indignant as she spoke, "But this is the palace! And there's that shrewish little prince eyeing us covetously! How can he be so careless! What if that lecherous little prince sneaks in at night and kidnaps our little princess!"
Nanny Jiang frowned, inwardly agreeing, but the boy was at the age where he was always playful, and there was nothing she could do about it.
She sighed and tugged at Zhuangyou, "Alright, let's hurry back and keep watch. That little prince is shameless and immoral; who knows what other outrageous things he might do?"
Zhuangyou nodded, "Let's stay by the little princess's side until the fifth young master returns before we rest. With the fifth young master around, even if he has extraordinary abilities, he can't take our little princess away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room behind him suddenly went dark.
Zhuangyou and Jiang Nanny immediately turned around alertly and saw that a candle in the outer room had gone out.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of rustling footsteps rang out, and in the candlelight, a slender and petite figure emerged from behind the screen, walked to the dimmed candle, took a tinderbox, and relit it.
When Zhuangyou and Jiang Nainiang saw this figure, their eyes flashed, they exchanged a glance, and their expressions suddenly changed drastically.
"Xia Yi! You silly girl, go back quickly!" Zhuang You exclaimed, and hurriedly pushed open the door. Ignoring Xia Yi who was startled, she bypassed her and rushed into the inner room.
