Xiao Tang blinked in bewilderment.
The proprietress was dumbfounded.
He stood there stiffly, completely at a loss.
"Oh, what happened? I, him, what... what's going on?"
The proprietress looked completely bewildered, as if asking, "Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?"
You should know that her Nightingale Pavilion has welcomed all sorts of high-ranking officials and princes, but the Regent Prince, this great Buddha, has never been here!
The sun is rising in the west now? The Regent will come.
Subconsciously, the proprietress suddenly stared at Xiao Tang's face.
For some reason, I have a feeling this has something to do with Zhang Cuihua?
Xiao Tang felt a sense of unease.
Could it be that brat Yan Shi secretly tattled on me?
hateful!
What should I do? What should I do? I should have run away...
But it's my medicine!
With victory in sight, is she really going to... surrender?
She suddenly glanced at the young man in red. "Brother, where do you live? I'll come find you later."
Murong Ze: ? ? ?
Big brother? Old man?
He had barely opened his mouth when footsteps sounded outside the door.
Calm and imposing!
The oppressive chill suddenly swept in.
Xiao Tang didn't have time to think much and immediately turned around, her first thought being to run away.
But after turning around, she felt like she was such a coward.
Looking at myself like this, I bet he wouldn't recognize me!
If he dares to recognize me, I'll... I'll pluck a nose hair as an apology!
So he turned around.
Feigning fear, she instinctively tried to shrink behind Zui Chunfeng...
The Regent had already entered, his black robes fluttering, his expression grim.
In an instant, it was as if death had descended!
The entire building was deathly silent.
Everyone knelt down in unison to pay their respects.
Apart from these few people from northern Xinjiang.
They were from the Northern Frontier Kingdom, so naturally they didn't need to pay great respects to the regent of the Great Sheng Dynasty.
At this moment, Xiao Tang was still not kneeling down.
She stood ramrod straight.
Before she could react, she was about to kneel down when she heard the Regent's icy voice: "Your Highness, you've grown quite bold, staying out all night?"
Xiao Tang: "..."
Everyone looked around in horror.
They're all watching, wondering who the princess is.
But looking around, only the woman in the red dress, Zhang Cuihua, who stood ramrod straight, was most likely the princess.
The moment the princess spoke, Murong Ze's pupils contracted slightly.
He suddenly stood up. "Your Highness?"
His hands hung at his sides, clenched into fists.
He lived in the northern frontier for a long time, but he always kept an eye on Xiao Tang's affairs. He later found out that Xiao Tang had been forced to marry into the Regent's Palace.
and……
In that instant, his heart felt like it was being torn apart.
"You..." His lips grew even paler, "You're Xiao Tang?"
Di Jingling glanced at the boy in red.
The chill in the man's eyes seemed to pierce to the bone.
Only Xiao Tang was speechless.
Waaaaah, my nose hairs are gone!
I didn't want to pull you away either, but this villain insisted on taking you away from me, so I can't really blame myself.
Xiao Tang really wanted to play dead.
Tomorrow's top story in Beijing will be...
The regent's wife was caught red-handed by the regent while visiting a brothel at night.
Or: The regent, who hadn't visited a brothel in eight hundred years, set foot in Nightingale Tower for the first time just to catch his queen in a compromising situation.
Xiao Tang thought, if there were such a thing as the Eight Trigrams in ancient times...
"What are you standing there for? Come over here!" Di Jingling suddenly spoke up, coldly ordering her, his displeasure evident.
Xiao Tang had no choice but to move and come to his side.
She lowered her eyes and said in a slightly coquettish voice, "My lord, I know I was wrong~ Please don't be angry~ I just wanted to experience life among the common people~~~"
"Hmm, is that so?" His cool breath brushed against her veil.
He pinched her chin with his fingers. "Does the Princess not understand matters of the bedroom? Is she here to learn?"
Everyone was stunned.
Regent... this... this is... an openly lewd remark?
Xiao Tang felt like vomiting blood.
[Oh crap, where did you learn such vulgar language?]
【My little darling, when did you turn out bad?!】
She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
She should have been ashamed of these words, but instead, she felt a cold sweat break out on her brow because they came from the mouth of a serious, stern-faced man, like the King of Hell.
[How...how scary.]
Di Jingling scoffed coldly, ignoring her chaotic thoughts, released her chin, and picked her up by the waist.
"Return to the manor!"
They had only taken two steps when a red shadow flashed before their eyes, and Murong suddenly appeared and blocked their path.
"Xiao... Xiao Tang, are you... really you?" Murong Ze stared at Xiao Tang expectantly.
A flicker of unbearable heartache flashed in his eyes.
This kind of heartache is something only men can understand.
Di Jingling immediately became angry.
A hint of anger flickered in his deep black eyes.
"Get out of here."
The two words conveyed a ruthless killing intent.
Xiao Tang had no choice but to wave at him.
Hey buddy, move aside. I'll come back to you later. We can talk tomorrow.
She didn't see the man holding her, and her lips twitched slightly.
Snap!
The next moment, her little bottom got a slap.
Why did you hit me?
Although it doesn't hurt.
But getting spanked in front of so many people is a bit embarrassing.
Di Jingling sneered, grabbed her chin, and forced her face up.
