However, Changning was mistaken; Lady Guoluo had indeed come to apologize. After returning home yesterday, Guoluo Mingyu told the Eighth Prince, Yinzhi, what had happened at the banquet. Although the Eighth Prince loved her very much, and was furious upon hearing that his wife had been beaten, wanting to come to the Fourth Prince's residence to settle scores, he also understood his wife's temper, so he asked her about the whole story.
The Eighth Prince sighed inwardly. He knew Mingyu was spoiled and arrogant, but her family was powerful, and she was deeply in love with him, so he was willing to tolerate it. However, that didn't mean he could tolerate his wife hindering him in important matters. Seeing that the Eighth Prince was angry, Guo Luoluo Mingyu truly regretted her actions. What she cared about most was the Eighth Prince's feelings.
After learning that her actions would bring trouble to the Eighth Prince, Guo Luoluo Mingyu disregarded her pride and grievances and rushed to the Fourth Prince's residence early in the morning, saying that she wanted to apologize to her sister-in-law in person.
Looking at Guo Luoluo's swollen cheeks, Changning suppressed a smile but couldn't help but sigh, "Another love-struck fool!"
She didn't make things too difficult for him. After all, she had vented her anger and regained her face, so why should she bother arguing with an idiot?
After leaving the main courtyard, Changning couldn't help but ask Zhuiyu beside her, "Zhuiyu, what kind of husband do you want to find in the future?"
Zhuiyu has a slightly dark complexion, and when she smiles, she reveals a set of bright white teeth. "What are you saying, Master! I told you long ago that I would never marry and would serve you forever."
"You silly girl, won't you regret never getting married?"
"I don't know if I'll regret it later, but if I leave my master, I'll regret it now."
Changning was somewhat touched. Sometimes, even her own maidservants were more reliable than men!
Yinzhen... Now Yinzhen is completely obedient to her, and the distance between the two is getting closer and closer, but Changning has no idea whether he has truly fallen in love with her.
To be honest, what woman doesn't want to receive all of her husband's love and affection? But this is the royal family. Right now, Yinzhen is a Beile (a Manchu noble title), but later he will become a Prince, and then the Emperor. A woman can never have only one man. It's best not to be tempted.
"I'm going to enjoy this life all by myself!" Changning thought with a grin. "If a man comes, great; if not, I'll still have my own career! Let's go! Back to working on my novel!"
When Yinzhen came again, he found that Changning's storybook had already reached the seventh chapter.
"Woman, don't challenge me lightly."
"I want you, I want you to smell like me, and to be my woman for life!"
"Woman, you're playing with fire."
Changning was so engrossed in writing that she didn't even notice Yinzhen walking beside her. Yinzhen was genuinely curious how Changning could come up with such sentences; didn't she feel any shame?
So, Yinzhen whispered, "Woman, what are you doing?"
Changning was startled. Turning around, she saw Fourth Master and quickly said with a smile, "Why didn't anyone tell me you were coming, Master?"
"Hmm? Woman, I've come to see you, aren't you happy?"
Um... why is Yinzhen talking so strangely? Ah!!! Wasn't this the domineering CEO quote I just wrote? Did he see it all?!
"Master, you...you...you saw it all?"
"Yes, Niohuru Niannian."
Ahhhhhh!!! I'm really going to die!! Changning immediately started digging her toes into the ground, her face flushed with embarrassment, almost going crazy, which made Yinzhen laugh. "Alright, alright, what's wrong with that? I think you do have some talent."
"You're so annoying, you just make fun of people."
"I wasn't making fun of you," Yinzhen said, then took Changning's hand and led her to the chaise lounge. He embraced the beauty and asked softly, "I was just curious, how come you have so many embarrassing things on your head?"
Changning chuckled and said, "All the inspiration came from you."
Yinzhen?
Why does he usually talk so frivolously? Who's the one who's gone mad?
Changning blushed slightly and said, "Master, what do you think of my writing? I'm thinking that when I host a banquet for the wives next month, I'll find a storyteller to read the story I wrote."
Hearing this, Yinzhen finally understood why Changning had suddenly come up with the idea of writing a storybook. However…
"If you're hosting a banquet for your wives, writing something like this might not be appropriate. What if people ask if it's true? What if it gets out? Wouldn't that be another royal scandal? What kind of prince takes a fisherwoman and doesn't give her a title, and she even has an illegitimate child? Besides, what if people speculate that the current princes have done the same thing, giving them leverage against you?"
Changning frowned. She really hadn't thought that much about it; she just considered it a novel topic to amuse her friends. Now that she mentioned it, it seemed she'd touched on a politically sensitive subject…
Looking at Changning's scrunched-up little face, Yinzhen kissed her affectionately. "Alright, what important matter is it that makes you so worried? If you like to write, then write, but just show it to me. As for the banquet, just tell the storytellers the requirements and let them rack their brains and write new scripts. Why make you write it yourself?"
Changning nodded. "Alright, but, Master, do you really like this novel I wrote, 'The Domineering Prince Falls in Love with Me'?"
Upon hearing the book title, Yinzhen twitched the corner of his mouth. How could anyone come up with such a straightforward book title? However, seeing Changning's expectant eyes, he still braced himself and answered, "As long as it's written by you, I'll love to read it."
Changning suddenly gave him a strange look. He never expected that Emperor Yongzheng would be so secretly passionate!
Looking into Changning's eyes, how could Yinzhen not know what she was thinking? This little ungrateful brat, he'd been so supportive, and she still dared to speak ill of him! So, in a fit of anger, he pulled Changning close and gave her a few hard slaps on the bottom. Changning blushed and said coyly, "Master~ why are you spanking me? I'm not a child anymore."
Yinzhen savored the soft, bouncy feeling from before, changed his breathing, and carried the beauty back to bed.
The next day, when Changning woke up, she felt that young, vigorous men were really not to be trifled with, and her old back was killing her!
However, since this script is unsuitable for performance, we'll have to find someone else to write it. This morning, before leaving, Yinzhen instructed Su Peisheng to do this, and the script would be delivered this afternoon.
Grandpa Su Peisheng acted with lightning speed. Before long, he brought the person over and handed him over to Zhao Fuhai.
Zhao Fuhai led his men to change clothes, taught them the rules of the courtyard, and then respectfully brought them before their master.
"Master, Eunuch Su said that she has a contract of indenture and will belong to our Qingzhi Courtyard from now on."
Changning sized up the woman in front of him. She looked to be in her early twenties, very capable, with slightly dark skin, somewhat resembling Zhuiyu. Her demeanor was uninhibited and poised, and she seemed quite eloquent.
What's your name?
"Your Majesty, this servant's name is Chunni."
