These words, spoken with a soft and gentle tone, lacked their previous certainty and were not even as convincing to herself.
Song Xibai barely managed to regain her composure.
"The Crown Princess is the Crown Princess. By all accounts, you can't possibly not touch her!"
According to our ancestors, the first and fifteenth of each lunar month should be spent in the main room.
As Song Xibai was speaking, she suddenly noticed a strange look in the Crown Prince's eyes.
