Sunset Courtyard.
Ling Shumo felt that she would probably never forget this day.
She had never seen a man like Xue Wu. The light smoky green gauze dress on him gave him an ethereal air. He seemed to have walked out of a fairyland, his body clean and pure without a trace of worldly touch.
Ling Shumo asked, "Whose family are you from?"
Xue Wu lowered his eyes and bowed gracefully. His voice was as beautiful as his appearance. "In reply to Your Highness, my name is Xue Wu. My mother is Xue Sangyu, the prefect of Zhongdu Prefecture, and my sister Xue Yao is the prefect of Zhongdu Prefecture."
Ling Shumo stepped forward, held his forearm, and helped him up.
At this time, the distance between the two was very close.
It was so close that Ling Shumo could clearly see the most subtle expression in Xue Wu's eyes.
The person in front of her didn't seem very happy, but he didn't seem to be afraid of her either.
Ling Shumo reached out and pinched Xue Wu's chin. She forced him to look at her and looked carefully at those bright eyes. No matter what this man was thinking, his eyes were filled with her shadow, Ling Shumo.
Xue Wu only felt a slight pain in his jaw. He frowned and called out softly, "Your Highness..."
But Ling Shumo didn't continue looking at him.
Ling Shumo's gaze now fell on Chu Changying, who was several feet behind Xue Wu.
She still remembered Chu Changying.
The second daughter of the Luocheng County Magistrate's family.
The guy who was chasing after her carriage and almost dying of running.
Chu Changying also noticed that Ling Shumo was looking at him, and he subconsciously wanted to leave, but it seemed disrespectful for him to ignore the Crown Princess.
Chu Changying stood there for a long time. At the system's prompt, he took a few steps forward and knelt in the direction of Ling Shumo. He said dryly, "I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. May Your Highness live a thousand years."
Ling Shumo nodded slightly, indicating that he could get up. Then, she released the hand that was holding Xue Wu's chin. Her hand stroked Xue Wu's neck, then his collarbone, and then his chest.
The warm touch of the person opposite her climbed up along her fingertips. Ling Shumo suddenly put her arm around the other person's waist, then picked him up sideways and walked towards the room.
Before Ling Shumo came, she had guessed that local officials would definitely send beauties to her.
She came here to do serious business and try to make amends. She originally thought that she could reject anyone's seduction, but when she saw Xue Wu's face, Ling Shumo knew that she was too rash.
Since ancient times, "a heroic woman cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman."
My ancestors never lied to me.
Ling Shumo carried Xue Wu all the way to the bed.
Shi Qi was very considerate and closed the doors and windows tightly for his prince.
The red candles in the room quickly went out.
Time passes silently.
The moon in the sky was covered by dark clouds at some point.
The movement inside the door finally stopped.
Ling Shumo pushed the door open very comfortably, "Let's take Master Xue downstairs and settle him down first."
Two servants lit the lamps in the house.
Xue Wu, his clothes half-undressed, leaned against the soft pillow.
His eyes were filled with confusion. When he heard the noise outside the door, he looked over.
Ling Shumo just happened to turn around and saw him.
The attendant changed Xue Wu into clean clothes, then helped him out and prepared to wash up.
When Xue Wu walked to the door, Ling Shumo couldn't help but put her hand on his shoulder, "Mr. Xue is truly beautiful. You can go tell your mother and sister that I love you very much."
There seemed to be waves in Xue Wu's eyes. He nodded woodenly, but what lingered in his mind was his sweetheart.
If the person he had sex with just now was not the Crown Princess, but Song Shiying, how happy he would be at this moment...
Ling Shumo's hand suddenly touched Xue Wu's right cheek. Her voice immediately brought Xue Wu back to reality. "What are you thinking about? I think you seem unhappy. From the moment you saw me, you had this lost expression."
Xue Wu's body couldn't help but tremble slightly. He almost bit his tongue when he spoke. "I didn't think much of it. It's my honor to serve Her Royal Highness..."
Xue Wu saw Ling Shumo staring at him straight. The princess' eyes had lost their previous gentleness and seemed to become extremely sharp.
Xue Wu blinked, and a smile appeared on Ling Shumo's lips again, as if the sharpness just now that was almost imperceptible was just his illusion.
Ling Shumo's hand moved away from Xue Wu's face, and the smile on her lips became even more intense. "I must have tired you out just now. Go back and have a good rest. When we return to the East Palace, I will give you a proper status."
After Ling Shumo finished speaking, she didn't listen to the other party's answer and walked straight into the inner room.
Ling Shumo also had to wash up again before going to bed.
Shi Qi brought four attendants in to serve Ling Shumo.
Ling Shumo took off his dirty outer robe and handed it to one of the servants, "Shi Qi, go check on the second son of the Xue family."
Shi Qi was shocked. "Prefect Xue wouldn't have the guts to harm His Highness, would he? If His Highness loses even a single hair, all the heads of her nine clans would be gone."
Ling Shumo didn't say anything. She turned left and entered the bathroom. The steaming hot air slowly rose and dyed the large bronze mirror white.
The sound of water in the room gradually stopped, and Ling Shumo, feeling relaxed, walked towards the bedroom.
She fell headfirst onto the bed and quickly lost consciousness.
Have a good night's sleep.
