Chapter 19
When the group arrived at the lake, Chun Hongfang's madam saw that the newcomers were dressed in extravagant clothes, so she fanned herself with a fan in her hand and came to greet them with a few pretty girls behind her, twisting her waist and smiling.
"A distinguished guest has arrived. I'm sorry for not welcoming you."
"Why don't you come over and meet His Majesty the Xuanwang?"
Mother Zhang asked the four girls behind her to stand in a row and took a few of them to bow with Song Yan. "I will bring the girls to pay my respects to His Majesty the Xuanwang."
Song Yan first frowned for a moment without any expression, then glanced sideways at You Yang who was following behind him.
Then he raised his eyebrows in a very frivolous way, raised his lips and smiled, and his pair of romantic eyes seemed to be bewitched, staring at the four girls in front of him as if he didn't want to leave for a moment.
He lowered his head, his eyes darting across the faces of the four girls as if he was selecting items. He walked back and forth in front of the four of them, and finally stopped in front of a woman in red, and lifted her chin with his long fingers.
"This girl is good. This king likes her."
Mother Zhang smiled apologetically and exclaimed, "Your Highness has excellent taste. This is Huo'er, the prettiest of our new arrivals."
Huo'er's cheeks flushed, she lowered her head slightly, looked up shyly, and smiled brightly at him with the shyness of a young girl, "Huo'er greets His Highness..."
Song Yanting had an extraordinary appearance and a graceful demeanor. Although he was a bit of a playboy, he was of an extremely noble status. If she followed him, she would not have to serve those old men for the rest of her life.
"Do you want to go with me?" Song Yanting smiled faintly, pinched Huo'er's pointed chin and pulled her out from a row of people.
He said to the madam beside him with satisfaction, "Thank you for your trouble, Madam Zhang."
Mother Zhang waved her hands repeatedly, her face almost breaking with laughter. "No, no, it's a blessing for the girls to have His Highness's favor."
Song Jingmo helped Youyang check her hair accessories and pushed her.
"It's your turn."
"knew."
When You Yang received Song Yanting's look, she knew it was time to get back to work. She made sure the pearls on her head and the dress on her body were all in good condition, adjusted her expression, arched her eyebrows, and said in a delicate voice, "Your Highness~"
She pretended to be jealous and angry, and got into the role in front of Song Jingmo.
You Yang pouted, stomped her foot in hatred, rushed forward angrily, hugged Song Yanting's arm, and pulled back his hand that was pinching his chin.
She pursed her lips in grievance and yelled, "Your Highness, you don't keep your word!"
"You agreed to only favor and love me these few days, so why did you still touch this woman?"
You Yang acted pretentiously to the extreme, coquettishly grabbing Song Yanting's hand and refusing to let go.
"I don't care. As long as I'm here today, Your Highness will not touch any other woman."
"this..."
There was no rule prohibiting bringing other women on the cruise ship, and she had already noticed this.
It's not like she hadn't seen those people around before, but this time her gaze kept drifting to her. This girl with a veiled face and a fairy-like appearance could easily attract her attention just by standing there.
She has been in Chun Hongfang for so many years and has seen countless beauties. She has also trained many famous courtesans in the capital, so her vision is naturally very sharp.
But when she came to this girl, she knew from afar that she was not an ordinary person just by looking at her eyes. If this girl was her Chun Hongfang girl, her face alone would be enough to attract the powerful and wealthy to spend money.
At first, Mother Zhang noticed that the girl wearing a veil was following Prince Song, and she thought she was the concubine brought by Prince Song. But after this incident, her face became a little solemn.
With such a talented and beautiful girl by his side, plus she is a girl named Chun Hongfang, many powerful people like to play like this. It is very common for two or even more people to have sex with Chun Hongfang as long as the money is enough.
What shocked her was that this girl could move freely around the two nobles. She thought that this girl was not only stunningly beautiful, but also had good skills.
The higher the status of men in the world, the higher their arrogance will become. They can accept two or even more women serving them, but once one woman serves two men, they will only feel insulted.
Thinking of this, Mother Zhang couldn't help but look up to her.
You Yang had no idea that this madam had such an outrageous opinion of herself, and was concentrating on playing the role of a concubine who was spoiled because of her favor.
She grabbed Song Yanting's hand without much strength, and the latter easily pulled his hand away from her little hand and held Youyang's two fair hands in his palm with one hand.
With his other hand, he held You Yang's neck behind her ear, forcing her to look up at him. He laughed and said, "You are just jealous."
"Wouldn't it be better if I picked a few more to keep in the palace for you to keep company?"
You Yang almost lost herself in Song Yanting's gentle gaze, but luckily she woke up in time, turned her head away in frustration, unwilling to look at him, "Hmph."
She arrogantly muttered in front of Song Yanting: "Can they be as beautiful as me?"
"Your Highness said last time that I was the most beautiful woman in the world, and it hasn't been that long and you've already fallen for another woman!"
"If Your Highness wants to take them back, then I will never see Your Highness again."
"Then it won't matter how many His Highness wants to take in, it won't be any of my business."
Mother Zhang had seen many concubines who were spoiled and arrogant, but she had never seen her act so threatening.
"Your Highness, this lady is..."
Just act, and praise yourself.
Song Yanting smiled dotingly, gently pressed her shoulders with his large hands, and turned her over so that she faced him.
He pulled You Yang, who was sulking, back to his side and held her forcefully in his arms.
"My new beauty is very jealous."
Mother Zhang understood and bowed to him with a dry smile.
"That's the young lady. This old servant has met the young lady."
You Yang glanced at her sideways, "Huh."
Seeing that Youyang was difficult to deal with, Mother Zhang winked at Huoer, asking her to find a way to win back King Xuan's attention.
Huo'er bit her lip, her eyes were moist, and she felt like tears were about to fall at the next moment.
She whispered to Song Yanting, her voice trembling slightly.
"Your Highness...I will be very obedient and will not argue with you..."
"Put away those little thoughts of yours, or I'll make you look bad."
You Yang threatened her mercilessly, and it was quite effective. Huo'er really didn't dare to say anything, but her eyes were not honest at all. She looked at Song Yanting pitifully.
Song Yan felt helpless when he heard this. He grumbled to You Yang in his arms, "You're so delicate."
At this point, Song Yanting felt it was a pity and sighed, "Forget it."
"I'm not tired of this yet, so I'll leave those Zhang Mamas to serve others."
After hearing what Song Yan said, how could Mother Zhang dare to say anything more? Naturally, he agreed repeatedly.
"Then I will have someone escort Your Highness to the cabin first."
Song Yanting put his arm around Youyang's shoulders, his big hand naturally hanging on her collarbone below her shoulder.
Feeling itchy, You Yang pretended to be still sulking and shrugged, "Hmph, Your Highness doesn't keep his word."
Song Yan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and lightly rubbed the tip of her nose with his finger.
"Don't be angry, ma'am."
"Let's go in."
The two men went up to the second floor of the cabin first, and Yuande followed Song Jingmo up a few steps slowly.
In addition to Yuande, there was another person behind Song Jingmo, and that was the girl Huo'er.
However, because Youyang stopped Huo'er from serving Song Yanting, a grudge arose between the two. The latter looked at Youyang provocatively as soon as he came in.
It seems to be saying, what's the point of trying to stop you? Didn't your other man choose me anyway?
You Yang ignored it. Song Yanting led her and they stood together. The servant opened the curtain for them. Several ministers from the court were already sitting in the cabin.
Seeing Song Yanting, they all stood up and saluted: "Your humble servant pays homage to His Majesty the Xuanwang."
"Meet the prince."
"Stand up, no need to be so polite." He took Youyang's hand and jumped to sit down, squeezing in one seat with everyone else.
Song Jingmo and Huo'er lived below and to the left of Song Yanting.
She casually picked up a piece of crystal cake from the table, tilted her head, lifted her veil and took a sip, then took the opportunity to look at everyone in the cabin.
And she became the object of scrutiny in the eyes of others.
Others were amazed by her charming eyes, graceful figure and elegant demeanor.
If she had not been following Song Yanting, the great Buddha, they would not have dared to offend her. Otherwise, they would have really wanted to take off her veil with their own hands to see her beautiful face.
One minister, coaxed into drinking a lot of wine by the maidservant beside him, was drunk. He stared at You Yang with a lewd smile, "How could Madam Zhang be so partial to us? She kept it secret from us, sending such a beauty to His Highness' side. Otherwise, we would also like to have a taste of her beauty."
"Lord Lei, how dare you compete with me? Watch carefully." Song Yan's face darkened when he heard the chopsticks fall.
"How can you treat my concubine as your concubine so frivolously?"
In the capital, King Xuan Song Yan knew all about the romantic past. He could give away beauties that he was tired of playing with. However, if someone dared to have evil intentions, he would be killed if he knew about it.
He relied on his status as a prince to act arrogantly in the capital. The emperor had so many memorials implicating him that they piled up like a mountain, but he was never punished. Instead, the emperor turned a blind eye and indulged him.
The chopsticks were thrown down and Lord Lei was sobered up. With sweat on his forehead, he walked out of his seat, knelt down, kowtowed, and fell to the ground.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I drank too much and lost my composure for a moment."
"That's right." Song Yan followed his superiors and walked down. Standing in front of Lord Lei, he stepped on the back of his hand as if by accident and kicked it hard twice with his feet.
"Before you develop any lustful thoughts, don't just look at her appearance. You have to look at yourself too. Only a man as graceful and handsome as me is worthy of such a beauty."
"Besides, Your Excellency should be more concerned about whether you have the ability to compete with me, don't you think?"
Lord Lei was in so much pain that cold sweat soaked his undershirt on his back, but he didn't dare to cry out.
No matter how dissolute and domineering Song Yanting was, he was still a prince and the royal majesty could not be offended.
He was so nervous that he almost choked to death on his own saliva. "Yes... yes, I know I'm wrong."
"That's right, Master Lei is quite clever." Song Yanting helped the man up personally, gave a wicked laugh, pretending to realize it later, and said in surprise: "Ah! I've been stepping on you for so long, and you haven't said a word. If you can't say anything, you can just scream. I feel guilty carrying you like this."
Song Yanting teased the girl standing beside him, "Since this is the death of this prince, come forward, little girl, and help this prince help Lord Lei to sit down."
