Gu Linchao was taken aback, then remembered that he had lifted Wen Nongnong's restraints yesterday, and today, since Atuo Jianghua had come, Wen Nongnong had gone out to play with Atuo Jianghua.
He frowned. Could it be that Wen Nong Nong spent the whole day with Atuo and Jiang Hua?
Thinking of this, he felt displeased and was about to turn around and leave when he saw Wang Houde return with a dejected look on his face.
Gu Linchao frowned. "Where is the Princess Consort?"
Wang Houde replied, "At Chenxiang Courtyard." He then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something more.
Gu Linchao said in a deep voice, "Just say what you want to say."
Wang Houde then said, "It's like this, Consort Atuo clung to the Princess all day, but when evening came, she didn't return to the palace and insisted on staying overnight at Chenxiang Courtyard to sleep with the Princess. This servant tried to stop her, but the Princess sent her back..."
As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer, and without even looking, he knew how unpleasant his master's expression was.
He also felt indignant on behalf of his master. His master had only slept in the princess's room once, so why was Consort Atuo able to sleep in the same room with the princess so openly?
Sure enough, Gu Linchao's expression turned unusually ugly after hearing this.
"Why hasn't Atuo Jianghua returned to the palace?"
“Consort Atuo said she has a special decree, granted by the Emperor.” Wang Houde said, cautiously glancing at his master’s expression, thinking he understood something, and then reassured him, “Actually, Consort Atuo is a woman. Even if she were to be seen with the Princess, she shouldn’t be taking advantage of her…”
However, his words only made things worse. Gu Linchao's face became even more gloomy, and he exuded a cold aura.
Wang Houde resisted the urge to rub his arms and subtly stepped back. It was better to stay away from his master to avoid getting frostbite.
At this moment, Gu Linchao suddenly ordered in a low, cold voice, "Summon the Princess Consort to the West Garden to serve you in bed."
Wang Houde was stunned, thinking he had misheard, and stared blankly at his master.
Gu Linchao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you going?"
Wang Houde realized what was happening and quickly ran to Chenxiang Courtyard.
Gu Linchao pursed his lips, a hint of unease flashing across his handsome face.
That was just a temporary measure; he didn't really intend for Wen Nongnong to do anything.
But Wen Nongnong should be coming, right?
Thinking it over, he instructed the servant beside him, "Prepare water."
"Yes." The servant immediately went to prepare.
Agarwood Courtyard.
After Wen Nong Nong and A Tuo Jiang Hua finished washing up, they had just lay down on the bed, ready to chat, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Green Fairy's excited yet hurried voice rang out from outside, "Miss, the Prince has sent Eunuch Wang to deliver a message, asking you to get ready as soon as possible and go to the West Garden to serve him in bed."
Wen Nongnong: "..."
Did she hear that right?
She turned her head somewhat slowly, looking at Atuo Jianghua as if seeking confirmation, hoping to hear a negative answer from her.
A-Tuo Jianghua propped her head up with one hand and said with a grin, "Can I go and watch?"
Wen Nongnong snapped out of her daze, her face darkening. "Aren't you afraid of getting a sty?" But she couldn't help but wonder why Gu Linchao suddenly wanted her to sleep with him today. It was so late, and she still had guests here.
She dawdled and was reluctant to get up.
Seeing this, Atuo Jianghua asked curiously, "Why do you seem so nervous? Aren't you two a couple?"
"Who's nervous?" Wen Nongnong forced a smile. "I'm just too surprised. After all, it's so late, and I've already gone to bed."
A-Tuo Jianghua suddenly leaned close to her ear and said with an impure look, "I heard that if a man wants something, he can't sleep. The Regent obviously wants to find you to relieve his desire."
Wen Nongnong: "..."
