Chapter 230 No more! Let go of me!
Tao Wanyin was both amused and exasperated: "The prince is drunk."
What sweetheart, what lovebirds, what a perfect couple? Where did he get that idea from, and then apply it to her?
The servants of the princess's residence were all watching from the side. Although they all kept their heads down, Tao Wanyin still felt uncomfortable from head to toe.
You can't reason with a drunk person.
Tao Wanyin took his arm and said softly, "Your Highness, it's getting late. Let's go back to the palace to rest."
Zhao Minghong shook off her hand and then grabbed her arm tightly.
He stubbornly insisted, "No, you must tell me honestly who that person is, otherwise I will not leave and will stay here until dawn."
Tao Wanyin's face was filled with shame and indignation.
In front of everyone, Prince Yong smeared her name without any regard for her situation.
She tried to shake off his hand in embarrassment, but she was no match for his strength.
Seeing that she still dared to throw a tantrum at him, Zhao Minghong, who had originally planned to talk things over amicably, was also provoked.
"You still want to protect him, don't you? What's so great about him? How is he better than me?"
His eyes were bloodshot: "Speak!"
Her arm, which he was gripping, felt like it was about to break. Tao Wanyin said stiffly, "Is Your Highness ill? Why do you have to frame me and pin a label on yourself before you're done?"
Zhao Minghong's anger surged through his chest, but he saw tears glistening in Tao Wanyin's eyes.
He grabbed Tao Wanyin and left.

After Princess Yong appeared, Princess Qingyun was finally able to escape.
She walked over to Li Chengxun, exchanged a glance with him, and saw the weariness in each other's eyes. No newlywed couple could be busier on their wedding night.
The two walked hand in hand toward their new home.
In the backyard.
Under the trees behind the archway wall.
This time, Ji Qingwu was truly weak all over; he wasn't faking it.
She called out to him, slightly out of breath, but Emperor Wusu ignored her.
His hand, in a very unruly manner, slipped inside the collar of his jacket, searching for his favorite spot.
Ji Qingwu shouted "start," but couldn't stop.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps and voices coming from afar.
In the darkness of night, when visibility is poor, the sound becomes especially clear.
The two people who came over were Qingyun and Li Chengxun.
Princess Qingyun stopped at the arched gate as she remembered something.
She asked, "When did Fifth Cousin leave? Did the Prince Consort see her? I was hoping to see her off."
Ji Qingwu walked out of the new house and bumped into Li Chengxun. The two exchanged a few words.
Without the slightest hesitation, he replied, "I don't know either."
Princess Qingyun asked in bewilderment, "Did you see when my brother left?"
Li Chengxun said, "It should have been shortly after General Wei was made drunk."
Princess Qingyun pouted and said, "I thought my brother had come to celebrate my birthday, but it turns out he's just here to drink with others."
I don't know if they drank to their hearts' content, but they emptied the entire storeroom of wine in the mansion.
Princess Qingyun complained, "Third Brother, I don't know what's wrong with him. Other people make a ruckus in the bridal chamber, but they make a ruckus in the front hall."
Thinking of the scene he had witnessed in the corridor, Li Chengxun lowered his head and gave a self-deprecating smile.
The Emperor hadn't come to congratulate them; they had just left the palace a few hours earlier.
Afterwards, the Emperor and Wei Ting had a drinking contest, not only for military power, but also because of Wei Ting's arrogant attempt to marry Ji Qingwu in court a while ago.
Princess Qingyun noticed that he had his head down and seemed somewhat forlorn, so she asked, "My lord, what are you thinking about?"
Li Chengxun glanced at her, his expression revealing no flaw, and smiled, "I was thinking about our wedding night. These people have occupied it for so long, and now there's only half the night left. How are we going to spend it?"
Looking into his tender and affectionate phoenix eyes, Princess Qingyun immediately became shy and blushed.
No matter how clear-headed and rational she may be, she cannot shake the fact that she is a young girl who has never experienced love.
Tonight is their wedding night again. Princess Qingyun said with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness, "My lord, let's go back now."
Just then, a soft, suppressed moan suddenly came from beside the archway on the right.
Princess Qingyun looked in that direction and asked suspiciously, "What was that sound? Who's over there?"
Who would be so bold as to hide in the princess's residence? Princess Qingyun was about to go closer to see.
Li Chengxun grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms.
"Princess, don't worry. The tabby cats come out to roam at night. If you go over there, it would be bad if you got scratched on the face by a wild cat."
He looked meaningfully at the swaying branches and leaves on the thick ancient tree: "Tomorrow morning I will instruct the servants to take care of it. Princess, please don't let other matters delay our precious time."
Princess Qingyun gazed at his even more handsome face under the bright moon, and instantly forgot everything else.
She said crisply, "Let's go, let's go now."
Once the surroundings fell silent, Ji Qingwu was almost breathless from holding back her anger.
Her clothes had already been lifted up, and Emperor Wusu, for some unknown reason, suddenly bit into the soft flesh under her front.
She could only bite the fabric of her front.
Looking at the head still buried in his chest, Ji Qingwu tried to push it away, but his hands were already weak and his body felt limp.
Her voice was trembling with tears, as soft as ripples on water, for fear of being heard again.
"you......"
The ripples on the water suddenly widened.
As if he didn't want to hear any rejection from her, he worked even harder.
Ji Qingwu took several deep breaths and said with difficulty, "...Let me go."
Emperor Wusu looked up in dissatisfaction, his eyes filled with silent accusation, looking aggrieved and pitiful.
Ji Qingwu felt that she was more like a drunk person than him, with the smell of alcohol emanating from him, her cheeks flushed and her eyes hazy and intoxicated.
The night breeze blew along her open dress, brushing against her bare skin.
She pulled her clothes tighter and said, "Don't do it again, or you'll have to let go of me."
Emperor Wusu rubbed his face against her chest again before slowly leaving.
Ji Qingwu quickly fastened the loose belt.
Two more people entered through the archway...
The footsteps were disordered this time, as if one person was dragging another.
This time, Ji Qingwu was not given any time to prepare. After they came in, they went straight into the bushes.
Ji Qingwu was nervous and quickly pulled Emperor Wusu deeper into the area until they hid in a corner.
"you......"
Emperor Wusu had barely uttered a single word when Ji Qingwu covered his mouth.
Her eyes were fixed on what was behind him, and she spotted the two people who had come over and stopped by the tree where they had just been.
Ji Qingwu leaned close to his ear and whispered to him.
"It is Prince Yong and his wife."
A light, airy breath drifted past Emperor Wusu's ears.
Noticing that his body suddenly trembled, Ji Qingwu's eyes brightened.
