Regarding the jade disc, they only need to send a few people over to confirm it; there will be someone specifically responsible for handling this matter.
In the afternoon, Qin Su and Yu Shuo accompanied the Empress Dowager for a while, and after she rested, they returned to the Prince's Mansion with a large number of rewards.
After returning home, Qin Su remembered Wang Manzhu's matter and called Lian Tao over to inquire about it.
Lian Tao said, "Miss Wang has already left the capital. It is said that she left before dawn."
Qin Su felt a little disappointed, but she also knew that this was Wang Manzhu's choice, and her leaving quietly was indeed the best option.
She left early, and I couldn't catch up.
"Oh, right, the messenger said that Miss Wang also left a message for Miss... the Princess." She scratched the back of her head a little embarrassedly, not quite used to addressing Qin Su.
The main reason is that the girl has already married Prince Chen, so she cannot disregard the rules.
Lian Tao continued, "They say that if the princess has a rich future, she'll go through fire and water for her."
Qin Su smiled and shook her head, "There's no need for her to go through fire and water."
In truth, her help to Wang Manzhu was more out of sympathy, a shared sorrow of being in the same boat.
She put Wang Manzhu's matter out of her mind and lay down on the soft couch to rest.
In a few days it will be the day of the West Mountain hunt, which we do every year.
With Qin Su gone, Xue Huai'an is poised to seize this opportunity to rise to prominence.
It was because of the hunting trip to Xishan that Xue Huai'an gained the merit of saving Emperor Mingyang, which made his career particularly smooth.
Qin Su pondered what to do, her fingers gently tapping on the soft, elastic couch.
When Yu Shuo entered, he saw this scene: a beautiful woman dressed in a smoky purple palace dress was lying lazily on a soft couch, seemingly lost in thought and unaware of his arrival.
Yu Shuo walked over and naturally picked her up, then sat on the soft couch, letting Qin Su lean against him.
Qin Su felt a little uncomfortable with their sudden intimacy. Although they had done more intimate things before, it was at night after all.
It's broad daylight now.
"What are you thinking about?" Yu Shuo was more natural than her, if you ignored his slightly trembling hands.
He was clearly not a teenager, yet he still acted like a young man experiencing his first love.
Sensing that he was even more nervous than she was, Qin Su immediately relaxed.
"I was just thinking about the hunting trip in Xishan." She propped herself up with one hand on the backrest, not wanting to put her full weight on Yu Shuo.
But Yu Shuo thought she didn't want to be close to him, so he supported her waist, got up and gave her his seat back.
"Hmm? Do you need to go out?"
Qin Su didn't quite understand his sudden action.
“No, I’m keeping you company today.” Yu Shuo pulled over a stool next to him and sat down.
Qin Su then realized that he might have misunderstood something, and immediately laughed, "Well, I was worried that I would be too heavy and crush you."
Yu Shuo looked at her, realizing she was explaining, and a smile immediately appeared at the corners of his eyes. He leaned closer and asked her, "Then can your husband hug you? Like just now?"
Qin Su: I suddenly think he's so childish!
We're husband and wife now, what's the point of being shameless? Qin Su reached out to him and threw herself into his arms.
"No need to be so careful, after all, I'm the one who benefits from marrying Tzuyu."
Yu Shuo didn't like her talking like that, and immediately corrected her, "No, that's not it."
Qin Su didn't want to continue on this matter. She put her arms around Yu Shuo's neck and asked him, "Ziyu, do you have the list of people who went on the Xishan hunt this time?"
Yu Shuo said, "The person in charge of hunting in the Western Hills is not me, but the list will not change much."
"If Susu wants it, I'll get it for her."
"Okay! Thank you, my husband!"
The word "husband" almost made Yu Shuo lose control. His large hand caressed Qin Su's cheek. She had applied a thin layer of pearl powder and lip rouge, which added a touch of refinement to her already beautiful face.
He just stared at her without saying a word, his eyes growing increasingly dark.
Qin Su had seen that look before; he looked just like that last night.
It's as if a wild beast that was once imprisoned has broken free of its cage.
Qin Su covered Yu Shuo's mouth with her hand and warned him, "It's broad daylight now, you're not allowed to do it."
Yu Shuo lowered his eyes, kissed her hand, and still said nothing.
He pulled her hand away, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "How about a kiss? I won't do anything else."
Qin Su agreed.
Seeing her nod, Yu Shuo switched their positions, trapping Qin Su between himself and the soft couch. He ran one hand through her hair and kissed her almost reverently, still somewhat eager and impatient.
Seemingly sensing Qin Su's resistance, Yu Shuo softened his movements, gently licking and soothing the person beneath him.
Qin Su held him down only when his subordinates made a move.
"I'm sorry." Yu Shuo straightened Qin Su's clothes and then took out a handkerchief to gently wipe the corner of her mouth.
"I'll definitely be more careful next time." He leaned in and gave him a quick, light kiss.
Then he simply held her, letting his desires rise and fall.
"Have Chongyang give you the list tonight. Just tell him if you need anything."
"There's also the Lunar Landing Tower... you can go there directly there."
Qin Su's hazy thoughts gradually returned, and she seemed to hear Yu Shuo mentioning the Moon Ascension Tower.
"Huh? What happened to Dengyue Tower?" Qin Su used Yu Shuo's neck as a support to sit up.
"When Father Emperor was on the throne, he entrusted the management of the Moon Ascension Tower to me."
Qin Su was stunned.
She really didn't know about this.
Yu Shuo seemed to know what she was thinking, and his mood became even more cheerful. "Besides His Majesty and the relevant personnel, no one else knows about this matter."
"However, SuSu seems to know that the Moon Tower is the royal intelligence network."
Qin Su was stumped by this question; she really didn't know how to explain it.
She knew this because Xue Huai'an had dealt with Dengyue Tower several times in her previous life, and she had gleaned information from them.
Ordinary people would indeed be unaware of this.
"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. It's not a big deal." Yu Shuo's hand, which had been stroking her cheek, moved down and instead took her hand. "You can talk about it when you want to."
He didn't need Qin Su to be completely open with him; being able to marry her was already fulfilling his heart's desire.
In the evening, Yu Shuo suddenly had to go out for a while. He didn't say what it was about when he left, and Qin Su didn't ask any questions.
About an incense stick later, Chongyang came in from outside and saw Qin Su coming straight towards him.
"Your Highness, this is the list you requested."
Qin Su nodded slightly and asked him, "Is there a study arranged for me in the manor?"
Although the Prince Chen's residence was like an ironclad fortress, and there was no need to worry about anyone infiltrating, Qin Su still preferred to discuss important matters in the study.
"Yes, Your Highness, please come with me."
As he walked, he said, "His Highness had people prepare this early on. He also said that if the Princess Consort is not used to it, she can use his study."
The study is a place of great importance, and even married couples are not allowed to enter it at will.
She never expected that Yu Shuo would be completely unguarded around her.
Even so, Qin Su still wanted to maintain a proper distance.
