Si Jin chuckled softly: "Liar."
Wei Linyuan's eyes were filled with interest, as if he had obtained some rare treasure, and he was unwilling to let go for even a moment.
He gently kissed Si Jin's slightly reddened eyes, and asked defiantly, "What did I lie to you about?"
"If I say one thing, will Your Majesty tell me the correct contents of the imperial edict?"
The boy's eyes were pure and clear, but his words were sharp and incisive.
Wei Linyuan was increasingly delighted as he looked at him. "How can you be so sure that I won't ask for an imperial decree to grant us marriage?"
"Because I am a slave of a conquered nation, as long as I am in Southern Liang, it will be a disgrace to me no matter who I marry."
Si Jin is well aware of her situation and never hesitates to show her true thoughts to her lover.
He said, "A-Yuan has always called me Crown Prince, he would never do such a thing."
This is the first time in all these years that someone has trusted him so much.
A warmth spread from the bottom of his heart, and Wei Linyuan's eyes couldn't help but soften a little more: "Then expose one more of my lies, and I will hand over the real imperial edict to you."
Si Jin slightly bent his knees and ruthlessly exposed: "Fake eunuch."
Wei Linyuan froze for a moment, the crimson on his earlobes contrasting beautifully with his red robes: "Is it that obvious? It was my fault, I admit defeat."
He verbally admitted defeat, but made no move to get up.
Her eyes gleamed, as if she had come up with some mischievous idea: "Jinjin."
Wei Linyuan said, "You called me A Yuan so beautifully. Say it again, and I'll do whatever you want today."
"Really?" Si Jin casually placed her right index finger on Wei Linyuan's slightly red lips, and then slowly traced it downwards with very light force.
He lightly touched the other person's Adam's apple, his fingers brushing against their chin.
At the same time, she softened her voice: "Ah Yuan~ You can't go back on your word~"
Then, I was kissed again.
… …
After receiving another kiss, Wei Linyuan slowly got up and carefully helped Si Jin to her feet.
He placed a pillow for him to lean on before bending down to pick up the imperial edict.
The words were clear in her eyes, and Si Jin looked up and asked, "You want me to be a beast taming instructor at Xuan Yuan Academy?"
"Hmm." Wei Linyuan nodded: "I know some medicine. Yesterday I discovered that your spiritual veins were damaged, so I thought I'd have you go there to recuperate. Xuan Yuan Academy is the highest institution of learning in Southern Liang. It has countless rare and precious herbs and abundant spiritual energy, which will be very helpful for your recovery."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but sit down next to Si Jin, gently wrap her arms around his waist, and pull him closer to her.
While channeling some gentle spiritual energy into Si Jin's body, he said, "Don't worry, I am a powerful minister of Southern Liang and the emperor's adoptive father. I can take care of everything."
"My little prince only needs to be pampered and not mistreated."
Yes, older men do it.
Upon hearing this, Si Jin's heartbeat quickened slightly. He looked up and kissed Wei Linyuan, saying, "Shall we leave? I don't want to stay in the palace anymore."
“Alright, I had already prepared carriages and horses outside the palace when I arrived.” Wei Linyuan said, using the piece of belt to gently tie one of Si Jin’s hands, while he held the other end tightly, and said, “I’ll tie Jin Jin up and take her home.”
Si Jin went out with Wei Linyuan.
Although the white robes and wide sleeves concealed the waistband, the feeling of appearing glamorous on the surface but being bound and led around behind closed doors was strangely...exciting.
Fortunately, Wei Linyuan was used to being crazy, and usually the eunuchs and palace maids would walk with their heads down when they saw him.
Otherwise, it would be really hard to explain his missing belt.
Once inside the carriage, the driver immediately asked, "Which gate would Your Highness like to exit the palace through? And after you leave, would you like to go anywhere else?"
Before Wei Linyuan could speak, Si Jin said, "Go to the west side, to the White Horse Gate."
The driver was shocked, hardly believing his ears.
Has the deposed crown prince of Northern Qi gone mad?
Although the White Horse Gate is the closest route out of the palace, it is openly reserved for the emperor, and only Zhu Ziqing can use it.
In recent years, even the emperor's most powerful ministers have considered the emperor's dignity and would rather take a longer route than use the White Horse Gate.
Mu Sijin has some nerve, daring to openly provoke the Southern Liang imperial power!
The coachman quickly advised, "Young Master Mu, this road..."
“Let’s take this route,” Wei Linyuan said at the opportune moment, his voice tinged with excitement. “Today, I also want to try my luck at the White Horse Gate.”
The driver's unfinished words were completely stuck in his throat.
He turned around blankly, turned his horse around, and thought in disbelief: Has the Ninth Prince gone mad again? He even wants to break into the White Horse Gate.
He spoils this deposed crown prince so much that he's practically lawless.
