Chapter 103 The Antidote to Passion
Now that the other person's firm chest was in his hands, he took the opportunity to grope downwards.
Sure enough, there were several pieces.
Yes, men's abs are really hard.
The two are now naked and facing each other; this kind of touching could easily ignite a fire.
Soon Xie Yunyu's punishment came.
This time, both of them were sober. Xiao Ling was much gentler, but this feeling was even more tormenting and irresistible.
In the heat of passion, Xie Yunyu left scratch marks on Xiao Ling's back.
Unable to control his emotions, Xiao Ling grabbed Xie Yunyu again and again.
As a result, Xie Yunyu fainted again.
...
The next morning, Xie Yunyu woke up and stared groggily at the curtains above her head.
Isn't this my own bed?
Then, she felt a large hand placed on her chest.
Only then did I remember the absurd things that happened last night.
So he gently removed Xiao Ling's hand from his body and turned to look at Xiao Ling's face.
This face is truly captivating.
Even in his deep sleep, he exudes a serene and otherworldly aura, setting him apart from ordinary people.
Then her gaze shifted to his neck and exposed chest, where the red marks reminded Xie Yunyu of their passionate encounter the previous night.
Xie Yunyu closed her eyes.
Oh my god, did I go crazy later on? I just went along with him like that...
And this damn man, he's so horny in bed.
It doesn't match the face in front of me that is devoid of all worldly desires.
Xie Yunyu said she wanted to break up with this person early yesterday morning, but then she fell asleep again in a daze last night.
What kind of mess is this...?
Xie Yunyu was overwhelmed with thoughts and couldn't figure out how to face Xiao Ling in the future.
After thinking for a while, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't gone home last night. How was I going to explain this to my family?
She glanced back at Xiao Ling, who was fast asleep, and quietly got up.
He put on his clothes, picked up his shoes from the ground, and sneaked out the door.
Upon exiting the door, he saw Qingquan standing at the entrance and shushed him.
"Your prince is resting, don't disturb him. I'm going to the next room to wash up."
Xie Yunyu turned around and entered room number seven.
After having someone deliver a set of his usual clothes and a veil, he went down the stairs next to him.
He asked Xie Fu to arrange a carriage to take him back.
Xiao Ling, who was inside the room, opened his eyes as soon as Xie Yunyu got out of bed and started getting dressed. He watched her put on her clothes, pick up her shoes, and walk out.
He muttered, "You always run away. Let's see where you can run this time."
"You'll just have to wait two months, then obediently marry me."
Xiao Ling recalled the absurdity of last night and suddenly laughed.
What a fierce yet cowardly young lady!
...
After tidying up, Xiao Ling went directly to the East Palace.
After taking a bath and changing clothes at the Crown Prince's place, he prepared to go to the Emperor to complain.
The prince asked in bewilderment, "Where did you go last night? Why did you come here to bathe and change clothes?"
"Tianxing Tower".
"You spent the night there?"
"Yes, my mother had someone drug me again," Xiao Ling said calmly.
The crown prince was startled: "Are you alright?"
"No."
After thinking for a while, the Crown Prince looked suspicious: "Could it be... that Third Sister Xie helped you get rid of it again?"
"Um."
Xiao Ling did not deny it.
The prince's expression was quite interesting.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Um... when are you planning to get married?"
"Almost there. Let's go see Uncle now."
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince took Xiao Ling to see the Emperor.
Upon hearing Xiao Ling's words, the emperor's forehead veins throbbed, and he clutched his head, saying:
"Let's go see your royal grandmother."
Princess Jinyang arrived at Yongshou Palace, and upon entering, she was met with the Emperor and Empress Dowager glaring at her.
Feeling uneasy, she glanced at Xiao Ling again and asked with concern:
"Ling'er, are you alright?"
"You didn't die, you must have disappointed your mother."
Xiao Ling didn't even look at Princess Jinyang, and said in a sarcastic tone.
When the princess heard her son speaking to her like that, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
The Empress Dowager, usually a kind and gentle old lady, now had a gloomy face and scolded:
"You still have the nerve to cry? Come here right now."
The eldest princess's tears fell in streams as she lowered her head and sat down next to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager angrily said, "Have you lost your mind?"
"Why do you keep giving your child those despicable drugs? What are you trying to achieve?"
The eldest princess simply lowered her head and wept, then pitifully looked up at the Empress Dowager.
"Mother...I...I'm just worried and confused."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager reached out and poked her on the head.
"You're just playing nonsense here. You care about the child, but you're actually drugging him?"
Ling'er has been in poor health since childhood. You came to the palace crying with the child in your arms, and the emperor could not arrange for the child to be sent to Xiyun Temple to be raised.
Why is it that after more than ten years, just when the child's health was improving, they started causing trouble?
Last time someone poisoned him, and the child had a fever for several days and had to stay at the temple for half a month.
It hasn't been long, and you've already had someone drug him again.
"Don't you feel uneasy if your child isn't sick?"
The Empress Dowager grew angrier as she spoke, and she reached out and slapped Princess Jinyang hard on the shoulder twice.
Upon seeing this, the Crown Prince was worried that Princess Jinyang would lose face, and he was also afraid that the old lady would be truly furious.
She then spoke up to comfort her, saying, "Grandmother, please don't be angry. Aunt... Aunt... perhaps she has something she can't say."
The emperor also spoke up from the side, offering his advice:
"Royal sister, didn't we agree last time that Ling'er's marriage is up to him?"
Ling'er has already promised to get married before she turns thirty, so what are you doing now?
Princess Chang of Jinyang opened her mouth, then lowered her head and whispered:
"He...he's already nineteen..."
"What's wrong with nineteen? There are still eleven years until you turn thirty!" the emperor retorted.
Princess Jinyang actually meant that Xiao Ling liked men, which was why she was in such a hurry.
But with so many people around, she was afraid that if she spoke up, Xiao Ling would lose his last shred of dignity.
I thought about it again and again, but I still didn't say it.
Finally, he sighed, "It's my fault, my fault... Sigh..."
After saying that, she lowered her head and wept uncontrollably.
The emperor looked up and exchanged a glance with the empress dowager, then finally said:
"Mother, you should have a good talk with my elder sister."
With that, he got up and left with Xiao Ling and the Crown Prince.
As Xiao Ling left, he glanced at Princess Jinyang and noticed that his mother's gaze was quite strange.
After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't understand what was hidden in her eyes.
After the three left, the Empress Dowager spoke slowly:
"Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Princess Jinyang glanced at the servants around her, and the Empress Dowager understood. She waved her hand, and the palace maids all withdrew.
Seeing that everyone had left, Princess Jinyang went directly to kneel at the Empress Dowager's feet, threw herself onto the Empress Dowager's knees, and cried out:
"Mother... I have a lot on my mind... I don't know how to say it..."
When the Empress Dowager saw her like this, she felt a tightness in her heart and a strange sense of unease.
The eldest princess then sobbed, "Ling'er... he... he... he likes men..."
"What?"
The Empress Dowager was greatly surprised.
The eldest princess recounted her observations and conclusions from the past few days to the Empress Dowager.
Perhaps the eldest princess had too much evidence, her analysis was too rigorous, and her storytelling was too compelling, which led the Empress Dowager to believe her.
They started to join in, sighing and lamenting.
However, the Empress Dowager had experienced much in her life, and after thinking it over, she said:
"This kind of thing has never happened before, don't panic."
It would be better to follow the emperor's previous decree.
If he can change his mind before he turns thirty, that would be good.
If someone wants to go down a dead-end path, then go with them.
You only have one child; you can't possibly drive him to his death.
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess could only weep and remain silent.
