She immediately blurted out, "Have you forgotten that I said I would take you boating on the lake?"
His fingers, which were touching the rim of the glass, paused for a second. "So the Crown Princess still remembers what she said that day. It was just a joke, why take it so seriously?"
"Just kidding? I wouldn't say that..." She was thinking that if she could run into this handsome man by chance, it would be nice to take a boat trip on the lake with him, but she quickly thought of another question, "Wait, you asked me why I'm here, so why are you here?"
"Having returned from an inspection tour of other provinces, does the Crown Princess think there's anything wrong with how I relaxed?" He smiled kindly. "After all, the Crown Princess will also tell others that she's pregnant with my child, so it's not surprising that I'm here."
Yes, if he can get women pregnant, what's so strange about him visiting brothels?
Feng Guang felt mocked once again, but considering her current weakness, she dared not confront him directly. Most importantly, she thought of Baili Mo. She didn't know where the Crown Prince had been swept away by the crowd, and since he couldn't speak, it would be difficult for him to reveal his identity. She thought about asking Song Wuxia for help to find Baili Mo, but she immediately rejected the idea.
Baili Mo and he are enemies, and Baili Mo was once imprisoned because of his framing. If he tells him now that Baili Mo has left the palace and gotten lost, he might send someone to secretly get rid of that poor crown prince.
Seeing her silence, Song Wuxia seemed to know what she was thinking, and casually asked, "Did His Highness the Crown Prince not accompany the Crown Princess when she left the palace today?"
Just as I feared, this happened!
Feng Guang was nervous inside, but she remained calm on the surface. She sat down opposite him, trying to appear composed, and said casually, "The Crown Prince did not leave the palace today; I came out alone."
"I see." He said these four words, leaving people unsure whether he believed it or not. He slowly said, "It seems that the Crown Princess knew that today is the Flower Goddess Festival, so she came out of the palace to join in the fun."
"What you said... is very true."
He glanced at her empty hands with a half-smile, "The Crown Princess is a beauty, yet no one has given her flowers along the way?"
Song Wuxia has always been a person with extremely high aesthetic taste. He would not deny that Feng Guang was indeed a beauty in his eyes. However, he had seen many beauties, so casually calling her a "beauty" was nothing special.
"Someone sent me flowers, but I refused them all." She lied through her teeth. In reality, Baili Mo had been following her every step of the way. Those who wanted to send flowers could tell at a glance that the two were a couple, so why bother to go up there and make a fool of themselves?
"So that's how it is." Song Wuxia sighed with compassion. "I was thinking that it would be too tragic if the Crown Princess didn't receive any flowers."
Feng Guang's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything.
A moment later, she suddenly felt something cool moving on her ankle. She looked down and saw a green snake about to coil around her foot!
"Ah! A snake!" Feng Guang immediately jumped up. She took a step to the side, tripped over the stool, and fell headfirst into the man's arms.
They even... stripped off the only piece of clothing he was wearing.
