They are not human, but possess excellent self-management skills and would be very considerate of the feelings and emotions of their hypothetical future partner.
Qi Qi enthusiastically explained his views on love to this prince from a monarchical society: "If I were with you while also having many other women as partners, could you accept that?"
Huangfu Yi: "...Who are you looking for?"
Qi Qi: "Don't worry about who I'm looking for, I just want to find someone."
Huangfu Yi immediately replied without hesitation, "No."
Qi Qi waved his hand: "Look at you, you're so hypocritical. You can do it, but I can't? You're going too far."
Huangfu Yi was secretly delighted for the past three days, walking with a sense of elation. Unconsciously, the gloom that had always been between his brows lessened, and the Fourth Prince thought that he had found an outlet for his pent-up emotions.
Although the truth was somewhat different from what he had imagined, it was indeed the case. Huangfu Yi was finally living the life he had envied for his ninth brother. So this was what it felt like to sleep with Lai Bao. Listening to his nonsense was nice, and listening to his breathing while he slept was also nice. Moreover, Lai Bao could only stay on this small bed now, and he could only rely on himself for food and drink, and could only talk to himself. He had no choice but to stay on this small bed.
Like having a cute cat, sleeping next to him at night, Huangfu Yi dreamed of sunshine and green grass, and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
She wanted him to stay like this for the rest of his life, trapped by her side, unable to contact anyone but herself, forever hiding under her protection.
As for the topic of marriage, he listened and realized that he had indeed gone too far: "It was my fault, I shouldn't have treated you like that."
Qi Qi: "No, you're not wrong, and neither am I. We just have different opinions, so have you come to terms with it?"
Huangfu Yi shook his head in the darkness: "How can one easily let go of matters of the heart?"
Qi Qi sighed deeply and said from the bottom of his heart, "It's all because I'm too good-looking."
Huangfu Yi: "...I would still like you even if you weren't good-looking."
He's flirting with women while also wanting to get married. Qi Qi thinks this guy is too dishonest, and dishonest people don't deserve to have wives.
It's bad enough that I can't be a husband now that I've become a eunuch, but to make matters worse, my suitors are so unfaithful. It's really upsetting.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Huangfu Yi heard his breathing was steady and assumed he had fallen asleep. After waiting a while, he leaned forward and kissed his cheek.
Qi Qi held back for a moment, but when he saw that he was about to kiss him again, he quickly sat up and punched him.
"You've gone too far, you lecher!"
...
Another day, the fourth prince noticed that his younger brother had dark circles under his eyes and that there was a momentary unnaturalness in his waist when he walked.
"He's not dead yet?"
Huangfu Yi: "?"
The fourth prince stroked his chin: "Looks weak, but I didn't expect it to last so long. I really didn't expect it."
Huangfu Yi: "..."
"Alright, from today onwards, take it easy when you're causing trouble,"
The Fourth Prince smiled slyly: "Bringing Qi Laibao along was definitely the right decision, hahaha. Fifth Brother, do you know what news came from Ninth Brother's side?"
Huangfu Yi listened attentively.
The fourth prince laughed heartily: "He said he lost a treasure he's had for many years, and he'll reward anyone who can find it with ten thousand gold pieces."
"I think this treasure is most likely Qi Laibao. Not bad, not bad. As expected of a child who hasn't even grown his beard yet, he's so reluctant to part with even a little eunuch. How can he possibly accomplish anything?"
Huangfu Yi was also taken aback for a moment, but his face did not show any abnormality. Instead, he put on a happy expression: "Congratulations, Fourth Brother! Congratulations, Fourth Brother! Since you've gotten into character, haven't you just handed over your weakness to us?"
The fourth prince said smugly, "Not necessarily. It's possible that the kid said that on purpose. We should be more careful. If we live a few more days and reach the Yu River, our boat will be mixed with the other pirate boats, like a dragon entering the sea. No matter how capable this kid is, how can he deal with so many pirates?"
Huangfu Yi concealed the impatience in his eyes and flattered, "Fourth Brother is truly wise, and you are the master strategist. Nothing can escape your grasp."
Qi Qi was at ease, as long as he didn't have to go out and face that freakish Fourth Prince, he didn't know what the Fifth Prince had done.
A few days later, when he quietly peeked through the door, he overheard the crew talking about news from the shore. They said they had also encountered the Seventh Prince's men on the way, and the Fourth Prince was furious, suspecting that the Seventh and Ninth Princes were working together to get rid of him.
Qi Qi felt that the Seventh Prince was brave but reckless. Although he had become a bit smarter in the past two years, he was not as ruthless as the Fourth Prince. He did things openly.
As the days went by, Qi Qi ate and slept all day long, sleeping until he was dizzy, and he didn't pay any attention to anyone. In everyone's eyes, he was a pitiful little guy who had been tormented by the Fifth Prince a hundred times, and he could hardly even speak anymore.
The Fifth Prince was very gentle, but as if he had made an agreement with the Ninth Prince, he never talked about the outside situation and just chatted randomly.
After the ship had been sailing for almost half a month, Qi Qi was forcibly kissed by him again.
The reasons are as follows.
The Fifth Prince and the Fourth Prince had drunk too much and went back to sleep. They chatted about the things they had done together over the years. It was a lovely childhood friend chat, but the Fifth Prince suddenly started talking about the additional men that the Ninth Prince had sent, and asked the Ninth Prince why he cared so much about Qi Qi.
Qi Qi said they were good friends, but the Fifth Prince implied that he was not allowed to play with the Ninth Prince anymore, which Qi Qi could not agree to.
Then the Fifth Prince said that the Ninth Prince had done some things in private, saying that although he seemed nice, he was actually very dangerous and had many secrets he was hiding from Qi Qi. He suggested that Qi Qi should follow the Ninth Prince instead of the Ninth Prince.
Then Qi Qi said, "Don't you have your own secrets too? Why are you putting down the Ninth Prince? I don't care because I don't want to. Who said he wouldn't tell me?"
