Chapter 239 Throw it to feed the fish and go to Ji Mansion
There is a jade-inlaid Luohan bed in the study of Prince Yong’s Mansion.
The morning light came in, and there were two people lying on the bed which was only used for a nap.
Tao Wanyin woke up very early.
She was still curled up like a sleeping baby, just like always.
But this time, her back was nestled in the warm and strong arms of a man.
Last night, Prince Yong was sitting at his desk reading, so she stayed in the study. However, she became sleepy after becoming pregnant, and it was already the second half of the night, and Tao Wanyin had already gone to Luohan's bed without her knowing.
Her head rested on his arm, and behind her ear she could hear Zhao Minghong's even breathing.
Two people had to squeeze together sideways to lie down on this small bed, and Tao Wanyin didn't dare to move.
She opened her eyes boredly, her gaze moving around, scanning every corner of the study, and suddenly discovered something she had never noticed before.
There are calligraphy works of famous artists on the desk, and the bookshelf behind it is filled with books and elegant artifacts.
The inkstone on the table is the qin-shaped fish roe She inkstone that she has always wanted, and hanging on the wall are the couplets written by her favorite poets of the previous dynasty.
Tao Wanyin's eyes were shaken greatly.
It was even more shocking than hearing Prince Yong say in person that he loved her in the backyard of the princess's mansion last night.
What you hear is not as good as what you see.
It turns out that Prince Yong was not just talking casually, but really had her in his heart.
She had never mentioned her hobbies to others, but Prince Yong was aware of them. It was easy to imagine how difficult it was for him to collect so many treasures from famous artists.
Prince Yong had never mentioned it before, and was waiting for her to see it in this way.
For a moment, Tao Wanyin wanted to anxiously wake up the man behind her and confirm her discovery with him.
She hesitated for a moment and raised her arms slightly, which were felt by Zhao Minghong who was still sleeping. The man's heavy arms and legs immediately wrapped around her.
This time, Tao Wanyin felt like she was tied up, and she couldn't even move her arms and legs.
His breath sprayed heavily on her neck, and Tao Wanyin called softly, "Prince."
No one responded.
Prince Yong was sleeping very soundly, and his actions just now were completely subconscious.
This time, Tao Wanyin felt even more anxious.
She didn't want to confirm with Prince Yong whether these were his intentions. She really wanted to touch the inkstone and old calligraphy that she longed for.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Soon after, the vague voices of two people talking were heard again.
One of them was the eunuch Chang Lu who served Prince Yong, and the other was a woman's voice, with a crying sound.
At first, she couldn't tell who this person was. When the person's crying became louder and louder, Tao Wanyin recognized that it was Du Yufang's maid.
Zhao Minghong was also woken up, his brows furrowed.
"Where did this annoying toad come from? Tie it up and throw it into the pond to feed the fish."
Then, he wrapped his arms and legs tighter and sighed, "Where can I get such a comfortable pillow? Let's sleep a little longer."
Tao Wanyin felt that the air in her chest was about to be squeezed out by him.
She pushed him and said, "My Lord, it should be the concubine who wants to see you for something."
Hearing her voice, Zhao Minghong finally opened his eyes.
His eyes had not yet returned to their confused state. He glanced at the woman lying beside him with her back to him, and his hand loosened immediately.
Tao Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to sit up, Zhao Minghong pushed her down with his arm.
Zhao Minghong had a splitting headache after a hangover and looked at her strangely.
He asked, “Why are you still here?”
This means that she is not welcome to stay here.
Tao Wanyin said: "I will go back to Jinmoju right away."
After saying that, she wanted to get off the ground, but Zhao Minghong refused to let her get up. He buried his face in her shoulder and took a deep breath.
When he raised his head again, his eyes sparkled with gold as he said, "Wanyin, it really is you."
Only then did Tao Wanyin understand what Prince Yong was doing. He was sniffing her scent to confirm who she was.
Is her face so hard to recognize?
But she didn't take a shower last night, and she still smelled a lot of his alcohol, which must have smelled bad.
Tao Wanyin's face turned light red and she moved away.
Seeing her stepping back uncomfortably, Zhao Minghong calmed down a little.
But thinking about what Tao Wanyin said when she came to the study last night, she wanted to stay with him. This was her home.
The corners of Prince Yong's mouth curled up, and he coughed to cover it up.
"Chang Lu!"
The door opened and two people came in.
When Zhao Minghong saw that it was the maid in Du Yufang's room, he felt that his good mood was ruined and frowned in annoyance.
"What happened again?"
The maid came in and knelt down and kowtowed: "The concubine has a stomachache and has been enduring it all night. Your Majesty, please go and take a look."
Tao Wanyin sat quietly beside the bed with a calm expression, as if she didn't care.
Zhao Minghong glanced at her and said sternly, "Didn't the princess go back to the palace last night and ask the doctor to treat her? Why are you still in pain all day long?"
It was because of Du Yufang's matter that Tao Wanyin left him alone at the party.
The maid was frightened by his angry look and said in a trembling voice, "Maybe, maybe the doctor didn't treat her well enough, so the concubine is still in pain."
Zhao Minghong said sinisterly, "The doctor didn't treat the patient wholeheartedly? You mean to say that the princess didn't treat the patient wholeheartedly?"
The maid said: "I dare not, I am just telling the truth..."
Zhao Minghong said calmly: "Chang Lu."
"Pull it out to feed the fish."
Seeing that the situation was not good, the maid wanted to rush to where Tao Wanyin was and cry and beg for mercy.
But before he could reach the place, Prince Yong kicked him hard to the side and he half fainted.
"You blind man! Today, let the whole mansion see what will happen to a servant who bites his master."
Chang Lu rarely saw Prince Yong so angry, so he bowed his head and respectfully pulled the man out.
Seeing Prince Yong's gloomy face and anger, he quickly dealt with the most capable maidservant around Du Yufang.
Tao Wanyin's expression was stunned.
Zhao Minghong turned around and looked at her. His expression had not changed in time, but there was still a coldness in his brows.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
The maid didn't even get half a piece of her clothes stained. Tao Wanyin shook her head.
She said, "I invited Doctor Liu from Qingchun Hall yesterday, and he said that the concubine..."
"None of your business."
There was tenderness in Zhao Minghong's eyes as he touched her hair.
"Are you scared?"
Tao Wanyin lowered her head. After her mother passed away, no one had made decisions for her.
So, her first reaction when something happens is to keep silent. People who don't believe you won't believe you no matter how you explain.
Thinking of some old things, Tao Wanyin felt the pain in her heart spread to her eyes.
Zhao Minghong squatted down and saw that she was fine, but there were bloodshot eyes.
He held her hand and asked nervously, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Without waiting for her to answer, Zhao Minghong called someone in.
"Go and ask the doctor from Qingchun Hall to come over!"
Tao Wanyin said with a distinct nasal tone: "I'm fine, I just..."
Just as the young eunuch was about to leave, Zhao Minghong stopped him.
"The princess is crying in pain. Take my token and ask the palace physician to come!"
The young eunuch took the token and left quickly.
Tao Wanyin wanted to calm him down, so she called out again, "Your Majesty."
Zhao Minghong had beads of sweat on his forehead and paced back and forth on the ground.
He called back the young eunuch who had just walked out of the study.
"I don't trust the imperial physician either. You'd better go to the Ji Mansion!"
