Everything was calm in Yunya Garden, but things were not peaceful in Xiwange.

That’s right, in order to save trouble, Lu Yanluo directly threw Hu into Xiwan Pavilion.

The bedroom was brightly lit by candlelight. Chu Xuan remained silent, looking at the documents in his hand, but he became more and more annoyed.

It was not his intention to stay at Hu's place tonight. He was waiting for Lu Yanluo to get angry and come looking for someone, but...

Shen He had just told him that all the candles in Yun Yayuan had been extinguished and Lu Yanluo had gone to bed.

The more Chu Xuan thought about it, the angrier he became. With a bang, he threw the document in his hand onto the desk.

He seriously doubted whether Lu Yanluo liked him or not. No woman would be willing to give her husband to another woman! What was wrong with Lu Yanluo's brain?

"Your Highness." Just as Chu Xuan was furious, a sweet female voice came, and Hu came over with her clothes half covered, and said gracefully: "Your Highness, it's late at night. I will help you change clothes and go to bed."

Chu Xuan separated the hand that Hu extended and said coldly, "Go to sleep with yours, don't worry about me."

Seeing this, Mrs. Hu pursed her lips in grievance, lowered her head and whispered, "Did I do something wrong? Why doesn't the prince let me serve you?"

In this world, apart from Lu Yanluo, there is probably no other woman who can move Chu Xuan's cold and hard heart in the slightest.

Chu Xuan seemed not to notice Hu's grievance, turned a deaf ear to her words, and picked up the documents on the side to continue handling government affairs.

Hu gritted her teeth secretly, feeling unwilling.

At first, she was unwilling to become a concubine, but Concubine Xi persuaded her stepmother to send her to the Night King's Palace. Her resistance was futile and she could only accept her fate.

But when she saw the Night King in person today, she was so handsome and majestic, just like a god from heaven. Hu thought that this was the husband she had always dreamed of.

She must let Chu Xuan know that she deserves him more than that silly woman Lu Yanluo!

Mrs. Hu raised her hand and slowly placed it on Chu Xuan's shoulder. Then she leaned over and pressed against Chu Xuan, her hands sliding over Chu Xuan's body as soft as boneless bones.

"Your Highness." Hu's breath was as sweet as orchid, and her eyes were full of hooks. "It's late at night, and the beauty is by your side. Are you sure you still want to read those rigid documents? Isn't I... much more beautiful than the documents?"

Hu raised her head, looked at the lips so close to her, and a charming smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She was very confident in her beauty and figure, and displayed her charm wantonly. She didn't believe that there was really a gentleman in the world who could remain calm in the face of a beautiful woman and could resist the invitation of a beautiful woman.

But this smile did not last long. Just as her hand was about to touch Chu Xuan's belt, a big hand grabbed her.

There was not the slightest bit of the expected confusion in Chu Xuan's eyes. Instead, they were extremely clear, and even had a hint of coldness.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? You won't be satisfied until I throw you out! Get out of here!"

"I...I dare not..." Seeing that Chu Xuan was really angry, Hu did not dare to be presumptuous anymore. She quickly stepped back and knelt on the ground.

Hu was frightened by the coldness in Chu Xuan's eyes, and she was timid and didn't dare to look up.

Chu Xuan’s last bit of patience ran out. Without even looking at Hu, he got up, walked to the bed in the outer room, and went to sleep with his clothes on.

When the oppressive feeling disappeared, Mrs. Hu slowly exhaled and then collapsed to the ground. She was a little scared, but more of it was unwillingness. She was so angry that she didn't sleep for half the night.

Early the next morning, as a concubine, Hu was supposed to go to Yunya Garden to serve tea and pay her respects to Lu Yanluo, the main wife.

While washing up, Mrs. Hu secretly looked at Chu Xuan, whose expression had been gloomy all morning, and was a little confused.

After washing up, Hu came to Yun Yayuan accompanied by Chu Xuan.

Lu Yanluo was having breakfast. She didn't show any surprise when she saw the two of them come in together. Instead, she casually asked someone to add two more sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, showing great hospitableness.

Chu Xuan was really furious. He thought he would see a woman who was extremely regretful in the morning, but...

"I pay my respects to the princess." Hu lowered her head and kowtowed to Lu Yanluo respectfully.

Lu Yanluo smiled and casually gave her a set of jewelry.

Hu pretended to be happy, holding the jewelry and looking at Chu Xuan shyly, and said softly: "Look, Your Majesty, the princess has a good eye. Doesn't this set of jewelry suit my clothes today?"

Chu Xuan glared at Lu Yanluo, deliberately took out a pearl hairpin and put it on Hu's head: "You are beautiful, so naturally everything suits you."

Mrs. Hu was flattered and looked at Chu Xuan with joy. As expected, he still liked her!

"Your Majesty!" Hu was overwhelmed with shyness: "The princess is still watching."

"It's okay, it's okay. Do whatever you want. Don't worry about me." Lu Yanluo looked at Hu and Chu Xuan as if she was watching a good show. She just wanted to get some melon seeds and a pot of hot tea.

Chu Xuan felt a breath stuck in his chest and was furious. This woman was making a fool of him!

"The King has something else to do!"

After leaving behind some nonsensical words, Chu Xuan left angrily. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist throwing that dead woman Lu Yanluo out!

After Chu Xuan left, Hu's face changed in an instant. She looked at Lu Yanluo with arrogance and said, "I have an unwelcome request. Although the Xiwan Pavilion where I live is not bad, it is still a bit shabby. I am fine, but the prince comes here every day. I am afraid that he will be wronged. I wonder if you can ask the princess to be flexible and find a larger courtyard in the mansion to renovate it."

Lu Yanluo calmly picked up the chopsticks and pretended to be embarrassed: "I'm afraid it won't work. There have been frequent floods in the south recently. All the prefectures in Beijing are tightening their belts and donating money to the people affected by the disaster. We can't be extravagant in our mansion, otherwise other officials will gossip about us. We can only bear with it for now. Your Majesty, I'll just have to put up with it."

Lu Yanluo knew what Hu was planning, so she emphasized the word "Prince", leaving Hu speechless and she just walked away.

"Send someone to keep an eye on Hu and see what tricks she plays." Lu Yanluo ordered.

Mrs. Hu is a restless person and will never give up so easily.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the person sent to follow Mrs. Hu came back to report: "Mrs. Hu sent her personal maid out of the house this afternoon. She was sneaky. I was worried, so I sent someone to follow her. I found that the maid was indeed up to something. As soon as she left the house, she went straight to the drugstore and bought a pack of **."

"**?" Lu Yanluo was surprised and amused. This Hu family even resorted to such despicable means as **.

"That's right. As soon as that girl came back, she locked herself in the room with Mrs. Hu to discuss something. I don't know what they were discussing. It must be something bad."

Lu Yanluo nodded and looked towards the direction of Xiwan Pavilion thoughtfully.
