Chapter 20: His Highness's Nickname
She thought for a while and asked, "Does His Highness have a nickname?"
He tilted his head.
There's hope.
She raised her head and looked straight at him. "What's there to be embarrassed about? You see, my nickname is Xiaoshui. Your Highness, please call me Xiaoshui from now on. It makes us feel more intimate."
Rong Zhuo grasped the point, "You want to be close to me."
She immediately came out of his arms, "Of course, we are husband and wife. Why are you so strange? Does His Highness have other thoughts?"
"No, I had no intention of getting married before I met you."
Her eyes lit up, "It turns out that Your Highness has been interested in me for a long time and wants to spend his whole life with me."
Rong Zhuo, "..."
"Okay, let's not talk about anything else. Your Highness hasn't told me your nickname yet."
Rong Zhuo held the hand in front of him and lowered his long eyelashes, "Little Moon."
Chu Sishui immediately complimented, "It sounds really nice and suits Your Highness very well." She was as beautiful as a fairy and as cool as the moon.
After that, she leaned over to his ear and whispered, word by word, "Xiao Yueliang."
Rong Zhuo, "...Don't shout."
Chu Sishui, "I understand. From now on, I'll call you Xiao Yueliang in bed."
He looked at her with a slight annoyance, "Women should be reserved."
Chu Sishui said, "Okay, I won't say a word tonight from now on."
Rong Zhuo, "That's not what I meant."
Chu Sishui said, "Xiaoyue, what do you mean?"
After saying that, Qiqi Ai Ai looked at him and pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes. "Your Highness is usually very cold to me. Except for the enthusiasm at night, he is like ice during the day and I can't see any emotions. Your Highness, since you are so cold, are you planning to cultivate immortality? Otherwise, just take a pill and fly away."
Rong Zhuo, "...the sky is too cold."
Chu Sishui sneered, "You are the moon, so why are you afraid of the cold? But please don't bother with a mortal like me. Fly away."
Rong Zhuo pursed his lips, "You know I'm not good at sweet talk."
"So what are you good at?"
Rong Zhuo, "...a lot."
Chu Sishui held back her laughter, "Why don't you show it?"
He glanced at her and then turned his gaze away from the bed.
"Why don't you speak?" She blew air into the corner of his mouth and leaned close to his ear, "Xiao-Yue-Liang."
Rong Zhuo's body stiffened, his eyes suddenly heated up, "Don't regret it."
"What are you regretting, Little Moon?" After saying that, he couldn't hold it in any longer and pulled the quilt over him and laughed.
Rong Zhuo was silent for a while. After a long time, Chu Sishui, who was covered with the quilt, woke up. Oh no, she must have really angered him.
Pull back the quilt.
"Your Highness..." After shouting, she slowly moved and bravely stretched out her arms to hug him.
Before she could touch it, she was held by a pair of slender hands, and red eyes looked down at her.
The air suddenly became stuffy, and before she could open her mouth, soft lips fell on hers, and their breaths were filled with each other's scent. First it was a test, then a gentle caress, and finally with a little dissatisfaction, she couldn't help but hug him.
He became increasingly dissatisfied with the light taste, and in the midst of the chaos, with a hint of annoyance, a faint fragrance wafted over.
She was definitely a little cold and wanted warmth, so those hands came over again, and when he got close to her, she felt warm. She couldn't help but get closer.
Outside the window, the wind blew down the albizzia flowers on the tree. The petals danced with the wind, sometimes high, sometimes low, and kept spinning around, never getting out of the wind's control.
The wind was sometimes light and sometimes strong, and the petals were blown around in a panic. Finally, they were blown high into the sky and then fell again.
Later, the wind became lighter and more soothing, and the falling petals were like in a cradle, being comforted by it.
The sound of Little Moon one after another drove someone crazy. Chu Sishui didn't know whether to call him or not.
All I knew was that the thin voice at the back was crying and begging for mercy because of the torture he caused.
Later, under the sound of an extremely tiny little moon, it stopped.
She fell asleep.
Early summer came early, and the sultry heat in the air woke up everyone who was working.
It was already daybreak. Lu He came from the maid's room and just as she stepped into the courtyard of the Qixi Residence, she was silenced by Jin Pei with a finger.
"Your Highness and the Princess slept late last night. I'll ask them to wash up later."
Lu He nodded embarrassedly and asked Jin Pei for some advice on matters concerning the boudoir. Both the young lady and the prince did not like having servants serving them, so she kept watch at night less often nowadays.
She looked at the closed door and turned to go to the kitchen. The young lady usually liked southern breakfast, so today she took the opportunity to make some Jiaozhou rice rolls.
It was three o'clock in the morning and the room was still quiet. Seeing that Chu Sishui was about to wake up, Rong Zhuo propped himself up, held the handrail with both hands, moved to the wheelchair, and slowly walked into the clean room.
Chu Sishui sat with the quilt for a while, then went to the other side of the toilet.
Jin Pei had just been carrying a kettle to water the flowers in the yard when she heard a noise. She walked to the front door and called out softly.
"Your Highness, has the princess woken up?"
A clear voice came from behind the closed door, "Come in."
Jin Pei pushed the door open and saw the princess sitting at the dressing table in front of the screen.
She had already put on her clothes, a skirt of autumn fragrance color, which looked particularly soft and beautiful in this early summer season.
Turning around, I saw that His Highness was already dressed.
Jinpei called out to the door and Yinpei also came in.
Jin Pei quickly walked behind the princess and said, "Princess, you have to go to the palace this afternoon, so why not wear a flying moon bun. It will be a perfect match for your outfit today."
Chu Sishui smiled after hearing this, "If Jin Pei lived outside, she would probably be a famous hairdresser. How come Fei Jian is so lucky?"
Jin Pei looked at the princess shyly but did not refute.
Chu Sishui knew that people in ancient times were still very thin-skinned, so he stopped joking.
By the time the two of them had finished their makeup, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Even the shameless Chu Sishui felt a little embarrassed, but the culprit showed no emotion at all and acted like a god again.
Chu Sishui glared at him resentfully, but the man showed no emotion at all and ate his rice rolls calmly.
Eat breakfast and lunch together.
The two did not want to delay, so they got on the carriage and headed for the palace.
The first time she came was for a wedding tea ceremony, and at that time Chu Sishui did not have the leisure time to look at the scenery in the palace.
Today, Chu Sishui pushed Rong Zhuo and finally had the opportunity to appreciate the pavilions and terraces in the palace.
"Your Highness, the architecture here is truly royal and exquisite. Have you lived here since you were a child?"
Rong Zhuo, "I lived here before I was fifteen."
"You can see so many beautiful sights every day. I remember the day of the talent show, the flowers in the Imperial Garden were particularly beautiful, and many of the varieties were things I had never seen before."
Rong Zhuo, "It will get boring if you watch it for too long. If you like it, you can go to Lian Zhi and ask her to invite you to the palace to play."
"That won't do. I am His Highness's princess, so I must accompany His Highness. How can I just indulge in pleasure?"
Rong Zhuo gave him a suspicious look and said, "Don't say anything against your will."
"Every word is from the bottom of my heart. As the ancients said, a day without seeing you feels like a long time. I can't leave you alone all the time."
Rong Zhuo, "..."
