Song Yan usually takes a long time to fall asleep, but tonight he felt sleepy as soon as he closed his eyes. He could smell the familiar scent of jasmine with every breath, which surprisingly calmed him down.
A few minutes later, Xie Shizhu heard Song Yan's steady breathing, and she opened her eyes wide in shock.
No way, Song Yan fell asleep like this?
Isn't he the terrifying Ghost Emperor? How could he be so unguarded?
In order to confirm whether Song Yan was really asleep or just pretending to sleep, Xie Shizhu sat up and looked at Song Yan's sleeping face through the candlelight in the hall.
It has to be said that if Song Yan hadn't packaged himself as a sickly person, Chao Lan and the other concubines in the mansion wouldn't have only had eyes for the prince.
Xie Shizhu bravely pinched Song Yan's cheek.
At this time, Song Yan had not opened his eyes yet, and it seemed that he was really asleep.
Xie Shizhu let go of his hand with confidence and lay down again, evaluating Song Yan's skin in his mind.
It feels good and delicate.

The next day, when Song Yan woke up, Xie Shizhu was still sleeping.
The woman closed her eyes tightly, her black hair scattered on the pillow, and some fell on his cheek, which was very peaceful and beautiful.
Song Yan's heart moved slightly, and he gently lifted the quilt and covered her shoulders with it again.
He glanced at her before leaving the hall.
Hearing the footsteps in the distance, Xie Shizhu suddenly opened his eyelids and breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon the day arrived when the Minister of Revenue and his family would be paraded through the streets.
There were many people gathered on the street. Some of them were carrying baskets filled with vegetable leaves and rotten eggs. When they saw the wooden cage prison van passing by, they quickly picked up the rotten eggs and smashed them at it.
Xie Shizhu and Song Yan also came here.
They all seemed to be expressing regret and said they were there to see Chao Lan off for the last time, but in fact they were just there to join in the fun.
Chao Lan had chains on her hands and feet, huddled in the corner of the prison van, her hair disheveled and her clothes stained. She no longer had the luxury she had in the palace.
Even after being hit with rotten eggs, Chao Lan remained unmoved.
It can be seen that he has lost his mind in the cell these days.
The Minister of Revenue was still pounding the prisoner car in disbelief, shouting, "Why are you killing my whole family? I'm not the only one in the entire Yan Kingdom who is corrupt. Release me, and I can tell the others... there is..."
As the name was about to come out of his mouth, the Minister of Revenue's pupils suddenly dilated, as if he had been ambushed, and then he couldn't breathe and died in the prison car.
This scared the people who were watching the fun.
Xie Shizhu was also shocked and subconsciously looked at the man next to him, thinking that he was the one who killed the Minister of Revenue.
But Song Yan's right hand was holding her wrist, so he couldn't move at all.
So there is someone else.
After a while, the prison van left the sight of everyone, and the next thing to do was to behead the person. A group of people followed the prison van.
Xie Shizhu did not go because she had important things to do.
But Song Yan was a nuisance to her, so she had to find a way to get rid of him.
Xie Shizhu rolled her eyes and thought of an idea. Just as she was about to make a gesture, Song Yan got there first.
"Princess, there is a famous cloth shop up ahead. Now that you are the princess, I should give you some suitable clothes..." Song Yan raised his hand and pointed to a shop not far away, looking down at Xie Shizhu with a smile on his lips.
Coincidentally, Song Yan told her what was in her heart, and she also wanted to use the excuse of the cloth shop to get rid of Song Yan.
Song Yan actually thought the same thing as her.
Does this guy have something important to do today? I wonder which poor kid is this pervert's target.
Xie Shizhu nodded obediently, and then went to the cloth shop with Song Yan.
As soon as they entered, they saw the prince and the princess also choosing cloth.
However, these two people were visiting incognito and dressed very casually, and it seemed that they did not want people to know their identities.
Song Wenyan's impatient expression changed when he saw that the person coming in was Xie Shizhu, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Just as he was about to go to Xie Shizhu, the Crown Princess stood in front of him and took the initiative to greet Song Yan.
During the conversation, they concealed their identities from each other so as not to let the people in the cloth shop know that they were members of the royal family.
After all, the prince had been assassinated once before.
Xie Shizhu was choosing cloth by himself when he heard Song Wenyan's voice: "I'll buy the cloth you chose today."
Xie Shizhu: "..."Brother, can you stay away from me?
However, he was quickly interrupted by Song Yan: "Thank you for your kindness, Prince."
Xie Shizhu: "..." She thought Song Yan would refuse, and almost forgot that this pervert was even stingier than him.
The Crown Princess's face darkened. She glanced at Xie Shizhu, then turned and left the cloth shop.
Song Wenyan ignored her and stood beside Xie Shizhu, recommending cloth to her.
The corners of Xie Shizhu's lips curled up slightly, and as soon as her hand touched Song Wenyan's waist, Song Yan walked to her side.
Xie Shizhu was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hand.
Song Wenyan became annoyed when he saw Song Yan. He glanced at Song Yan and learned that Xie Shizhu was already Song Yan's princess, so he couldn't do anything out of line in public.
If he leaves a bad reputation, it will have a great impact on his ascension to the throne.
Thinking of this, Song Wenyan threw some silver to the owner of the cloth shop, meaning that he would take care of everything Xie Shizhu bought, and then left the cloth shop in a high-handed manner.
After he left, Xie Shizhu didn't want to stay any longer. After all, she still had to get Song Wenyan's token.
She quickly picked up a few pieces of cloth and gestured to Song Yan, "Your Majesty, how about we stay at the Xinyu Inn tonight and return home tomorrow?"
