Chapter 07 Possession
Across the wall, Shen Sui stood below, as steady as a pine tree and as beautiful as jade, in front of him was Xiao Huaiwen, the leader of the imperial guards.
It was still a long way from here to the Imperial Garden. Although this place was not an empty corner, it was also remote, and normally few people would pass by here.
It was over!
When Wu Chun saw Shen Sui, the first thought in his mind was not surprise, but fear.
A series of memories from his previous life came up like beads, and a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and Wu Chun suddenly realized it.
Xiao Huaiwen was Shen Sui's subordinate!
Wasn't Shen Sui here to discuss matters with Xiao Huaiwen? How did the third prince, who was neglected by the emperor, get involved with the leader of the imperial guards? It's impossible that they wanted him to protect the emperor more. Maybe they were planning a rebellion.
Just, just... she saw it...
Wu Chun's face lost all color in an instant, and the blood in his body almost cooled down. The warm spring sun shone on his body, and he felt cold all over.
Shen Ying didn't expect so much. She just felt embarrassed, so she thought Wu Chun was embarrassed too, and poked Wu Chun with her elbow, "Sister-in-law, please say something..."
In front of her were Shen Sui and Xiao Huaiwen. Shen Ying was not familiar with either of them, and Wu Chun was Shen Sui's prince consort. No matter how you look at it, she should be the first to break the silence.
When Shen Sui heard the noise, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he saw clearly that the person coming was Wu Chun, and the cold hostility faded a lot, but he didn't expect it to be in such a place and at such an angle. A slight surprise flashed in his eyes, and then quickly faded.
The sunlight shone down, just falling on Wu Chun's snow-white face, her snow-white skin and jade-like cheeks, almost the whole face was shining, and her soft earlobe was hanging today with a silver ring forged with a unique craftsmanship in southern Xinjiang. In the center of the silver ring was a ruby, which was dazzling and made her even more charming. Looking down, there was a slender neck as smooth as porcelain. Just looking at it made one imagine the delicate and soft touch. A slight force would leave an ambiguous red mark.
Shen Sui's Adam's apple moved slightly.
But her expression was not quite right. Her eyes were vacant and absent-minded, as if she had encountered some kind of monster. She froze on the wall like a puppet. If you didn't know, you would think that some skilled craftsman had made an exquisite doll and placed it on the palace wall.
Xiao Huaiwen lowered his head.
Shen Sui asked, "My beloved concubine?"
Wu Chun was startled and came to her senses. She saw that there was no murderous intent in Shen Sui's eyes. She suppressed her pounding heart and said, "Your Highness..."
When she called, her voice was still trembling a little. Then she swallowed her saliva, changed her tone, and said with a crying voice, "Your Highness, I have been looking for you so hard..."
Shen Ying turned her head to look at her, her eyes were full of confusion, and she quickly understood.
Sister-in-law is afraid that the third brother will misunderstand!
Wu Chun blinked her eyes and actually shed tears. Shen Ying admired her for acting so realistically, but only Wu Chun herself knew that it was because of the fear just now.
"Your Highness, I was just greedy and ate a few more cakes during the banquet. As soon as I raised my head, you left. You don't know that you Daliang women have always looked down on me and disliked me for being vulgar, so you treat me with contempt. I wanted to make friends with them, but they ignored me. Only Her Royal Highness the Princess can talk to me... I am grateful for the Princess's kindness, and I miss Your Highness even more. Your Highness is my only support in the palace, so I hurried to find Your Highness. Because I was too anxious, I couldn't wait a moment, so I climbed over the wall to take a shortcut. It was really a blessing from heaven that I ran into you!"
Shen Sui's face darkened with every word Wu Chun said.
Can't you tell ghosts to ghosts? I used to think she was well behaved, but I didn't expect her to tell lies and cry easily, and act more realistically than actors.
In front of outsiders, she was like two different people than she was in front of him in Yuning Palace a few days ago.
Shen Sui said coldly, "Why is the princess here too? Does the princess miss me too?"
Shen Ying frowned, as if she was anxious. She heard that her third brother had a bad temper and never wanted to get close to others, so she pouted and said, "No, no, no, I'm here to find the general."
Xiao Huaiwen raised his head.
Shen Ying took out the jade pendant, "Just now General Xiao's jade pendant fell down, here..."
When the little princess took out the jade pendant, Shen Sui snorted coldly.
Wu Chun winked at Shen Ying. Now that she had spoken, wouldn't it be confirmed that what she had just said to Shen Sui was false?
Xiao Huaiwen looked at his empty waist and knelt on one knee, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Shen Sui flicked his sleeves, probably too lazy to argue with them, and stretched out his arms to Wu Chun, "Come down."
He had long arms and legs, and his arms were strong and firm. When he stretched them out, his lines were straight and smooth. In addition, he had a handsome face. He met his wife under the wall like this, and he didn't blame her for being rude. Anyone who saw it would have to sigh. Wu Chun had such a considerate husband, what a blessing.
Only Wu Chun himself didn't think so.
In her previous life, she was bewitched by Shen Sui in this way. His occasional warmth made her fall a little bit, so she deliberately ignored his deep coldness. It was not until she died that she saw his true nature.
Hypocritical, cold, and crazy.
Wu Chun was light and it was not difficult for Shen Sui to catch her. When she fell, he tightened his arms and hugged her, feeling the ups and downs of her soft curves.
Wu Chun got off the ground.
Shen Ying looked at Shen Sui.
Shen Sui looked at her calmly, without any intention of catching her.
"Third brother... Third brother, third brother..." the little princess said coquettishly.
Shen Sui's eyes fell on Xiao Huaiwen.
Xiao Huaiwen understood, took a step forward, and stretched out his hand, "Your Highness, I am sorry for your rudeness."
Shen Ying didn't remember how she fell to the ground. She only remembered that it seemed that there was only the sound of her thunderous heartbeat in the world, and the faint smell of sweat on Xiao Huaiwen's body. He must have worn a body armor under his clothes, otherwise it wouldn't feel so hard to the touch...
Shen Ying had just returned the jade pendant when a palace maid came running from behind, "Your Highness, we finally found you. The Royal Concubine wants to see you!"
"Mother?" Shen Ying said goodbye to a few people, looked at Xiao Huaiwen for a while, and left.
Xiao Huaiwen said to Shen Sui, "I will do my best in this case, please rest assured, Your Highness." After saying that, he bowed and left.
Only Wu Chun and Shen Sui were left.
Wu Chun calmed down now and understood after a little thought.
How could a person like Shen Sui stand on the street in broad daylight and discuss treason with Xiao Huaiwen so arrogantly? Since they dared to talk about it outside, it must not be something shameful. It should be a case that only a few people know about. After all, we have to be on guard against eavesdropping.
Shen Sui's eyes fell on Wu Chun.
Wu Chun subconsciously took a step back, "Your Highness, you also know that I can't hide it from you. Today I am helping the princess return the
jade pendant." "As a prince's consort, you chased the leader of the imperial guards over the wall. If people who don't know get out, they will think that I am cuckolded." Shen Sui's tone was very cold.
Wuchun knew that he always held grudges and would remember the smallest things for years. He probably still remembered what happened last winter, so she took another step back and said, "I am also thinking about the princess. The princess is very anxious."
"If I was not here and you caught up with Xiao Huaiwen, how did you get down from the wall?" Shen Sui stared at her, with a hint of torture.
Wuchun looked down at her toes and said, "Of course I fell down."
Shen Sui's mouth twitched. Wuchun took half a step over the two steps she had just taken. He grabbed her shoulders, pushed her against the wall, and leaned over to kiss her.
The cold and soft lips pressed against her, along with the touch of his hard teeth, made Wuchun's mind go blank instantly!
In her previous life, Shen Sui rarely kissed her. Even if there was, it was just a little bit, or it was because he couldn't help himself when the passion was strong.
It had almost never happened before that he kissed her in broad daylight without any concealment.
His kiss was overbearing and straightforward, like a nimble fish prying open her teeth and then entwining her tongue, like a poisonous snake entangling her bit by bit, or like a bee lurking in the dark suddenly attacking to snatch the fragrance of the flower and absorb the sweetness of the stamen...
Wu Chun actually felt suffocated and couldn't breathe!
She closed her eyes, and before she could react from the shock, she met Shen Sui's dark eyes that were dark enough to swallow a person, and her heart was shocked again.
His long and dense eyelashes like crow feathers trembled slightly, and his teeth ground on her lips, and a faint smell of blood immediately filled the mouths of both of them.
Wu Chun felt the pain, so he put his hands on his chest and pushed hard!
The two finally separated.
Wu Chun saw the water on Shen Sui's lips shining in the sunlight, and suddenly became angry. His chest rose and fell slightly, and he gasped: "Your Highness, are you too bold? It's broad daylight, and this behavior is not in accordance with etiquette."
"Etiquette? What do you think etiquette is? What do I think etiquette is? Since we are not law-abiding people, what etiquette is there to talk about." Shen Sui grabbed Wu Chun's wrist and pulled her over. Wu Chun's wrist immediately had a red mark, and it hurt like a bone was about to break, "Let me go! It hurts!"
"If I were not here today, would you let Xiao Huaiwen pick you up? Let him hold you?" Shen Sui ignored her shouting and carried her up.
Wu Chun's eyes were spinning, and when he came to his senses, he was already on Shen Sui's shoulders, his hard shoulders hurting his thin waist, "Let go! I'm just returning the jade pendant with the princess!"
Shen Sui's face became more and more gloomy.
He carried her for a while, and a few disheveled eunuchs and palace maids appeared on the road. When they saw him, they were startled at first, and then they all lowered their heads and knelt down, thinking that the Third Prince and the Princess really didn't treat them as outsiders.
Wu Chun punched and kicked, tears were about to fall again, "You never asked for my consent, you only cared about yourself and your face, but I don't want to serve you now, but you forced me, Shen Sui, you have always been a selfish and heartless person! You are not even as good as a dog
for me!" How could he love her? How could there be even a little bit of love? The so-called possessive desire must be just for his face...
Shen Sui paused, and his voice was chilling to the bone, "Wu, you insult me like this, and speculate about me like this. Do you really think that I didn't pursue your rudeness before, and I won't pursue it today?"
Wu Chun was worried that this madman was going to have a fit, so he stopped talking, and waves of bitterness rose in his nose and throat.
Yuning Palace was soon in front of him. There were palace servants coming up to greet them, but seeing Shen Sui's frosty face, they opened their mouths and dared not say a word. It
was a clear spring day, but I felt a chill for no reason. It happened that the wind blew in the palace, making people's hair stand on end.
"Someone." Shen Sui's eyes swept over the eunuchs and palace maids standing in front of the gate to greet him, and finally landed on an eunuch who had been keeping his head down and was sweating profusely as if he was guilty. He stretched out his hand and pointed at a distance, "Cut off his arm."
His tone was slow and calm, which made people's hearts tremble. "Cut off whichever hand the queen usually uses to support her. If she has used both hands, cut off both."
