Why did Yuwen Yao have to take him to the Phoenix Palace?
At this moment, Yuwen Yao had already straightened his clothes and walked out from the inner room. Compared to Xie Lingqin's blushing and flustered state, he appeared calm and composed.
Xie Lingqin desperately tried to signal to him with her eyes, urging him to make a clean fuss and let her leave.
However, Yuwen Yao seemed completely oblivious and instead extended his hand to the Empress, saying, "Mother, this is a gift."
"You little rascal." The Empress, nearing middle age, though not as strikingly beautiful as Consort Lan, was exceptionally elegant and kind. She glanced at her son, then looked affectionately at Xie Lingqin. After a moment's thought, she walked into the inner room and emerged shortly after. With a flick of her wrist, she pulled Xie Lingqin's hand and slipped the jade bracelet onto her wrist.
Xie Lingqin wanted to refuse, but she discovered that the Empress was quite strong, and...
He was so gentle that she couldn't bear to refuse him.
"Alright, come to the palace more often in the future." The Empress was as kind as a neighbor's aunt.
Xie Lingqin was completely stunned.
She looked at Yuwen Yao again. Why did such a strange son have such a good mother? Moreover, this person was the empress, the mother of the world and the head of the harem.
"Mother, please continue with your business. Your daughter-in-law and I have other matters to attend to, so we will take our leave now."
While Xie Lingqin was lost in thought, Yuwen Yao had already pulled her away as if to leave.
However, Xie Lingqin wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground after hearing those words.
"Wait a minute." The Empress smiled and grabbed Xie Lingqin's hand. Then, she raised her hand to tidy Xie Lingqin's hair, and glared at Yuwen Yao. "Next time, be careful. Remember to be gentle with women. Don't scare my wife away."
Well……
Xie Lingqin's face finally turned red.
Her cheeks flushed red all the way to her ears.
This clearly shows that the two of them were too excited just now and didn't even bother to tidy themselves up.
Xie Lingqin glanced sideways; Yuwen Yao's hair was bound with a jade crown, perfectly clean, without a trace of dishevelment.
"Don't worry, Mother, I will be more considerate next time."
Yuwen Yao spoke without blushing or showing any sign of embarrassment.
Xie Lingqin...
Well, I've already lost face enough today, so this is the worst that can happen. I might as well just do whatever I want.
Until they left the Phoenix Palace.
"Yuwen Yao, you bastard, you big bad wolf, let me tell you, don't follow me anymore, or else..."
"Otherwise what? What else do you want to do to me? Yes, we weren't asleep yet." The Crown Prince stood behind Xie Lingqin, his words...
Xie Lingqin stopped and slowly turned to look at Yuwen Yao.
Sunlight streamed down from the glazed tiles, and he seemed to slowly unfold like a painting, yet a distinctly joyful smile was hidden in his eyes.
"Yuwen Yao, you have no shame."
"Well, as long as you kiss me every day, I'll be shameless, so what?"
"you--"
"I'll help you, okay?"
Xie Lingqin's expression hardened, and she frowned. "What?"
"If you defy the Emperor, I will help you. Even if you defy the world, I will still help you."
Xie Lingqin's eyes flickered. He was responding to her question before, about what would happen if she disobeyed the Emperor. At that time, he hadn't answered, but now...
He provided the answer.
He stopped teasing and joking with her; when he said this, his expression was more serious and focused than ever before.
Whether someone is sincere or not can be seen in their eyes.
Something suddenly began to grow in my heart; it started as a small dot, but now it seems to have spread.
A warm and cozy feeling makes one's eyebrows and eyes look refreshed, and makes one's eyebrows and eyes unconsciously become gentle.
"Yuwen Yao, is this... sweet talk?"
Yuwen Yao nodded, a smile playing on his lips, his eyes captivating. "I suppose so."
Xie Lingqin immediately disliked it, her small face turning cold, "What do you mean by 'calculate'?"
"To me, sweet words are like lying in the same bed, under the same blanket, pressed tightly together, whispering sweet nothings to each other..."
Before the Crown Prince could finish speaking, Xie Lingqin stepped forward and covered his mouth. At the same time, she carefully looked around before secretly letting out a sigh of relief. She then whispered to the Crown Prince, "Stop talking, okay? That's too shameless."
"I was very excited when you kissed me just now."
Xie Lingqin gritted her teeth and clenched her fist.
Can you be a little more reserved?
“You kissed me first, that was my way of retaliating, understand?” Xie Lingqin felt that she had to take the initiative.
To everyone's surprise, the Crown Prince smiled, a smile so beautiful that Xie Lingqin was stunned.
However, once it's said, well...
"Then you're welcome to retaliate more often in the future."
---Aside---
The prince is cunning; Xinzhi wants to return to the countryside.
