He took two steps forward, patted her head, and said gently, "Would you like to wash your face?"
Wen Nongnong shook her head. "I already took a bath before coming here, Your Highness, you don't need to bother. Please get settled, it's very late." After saying that, she yawned and lay down on the bed.
A smile appeared in Gu Linchao's eyes as he turned off the light.
As soon as he lay down, the girl snuggled up to him.
He smiled and pulled her into his arms.
Knowing her tendency to sleep, he assumed she was asleep, but then he suddenly heard her say, "Your Highness, what happened during the day? Have you found out?"
He paused for a moment, then responded softly, "Yes, I found it."
"Who did this?" Wen Nongnong asked curiously.
Unexpectedly, Gu Linchao did not answer her this time, but instead asked, "Who do you think did this, Nong Nong?"
"Is he the prince's political enemy?" Wen Nongnong wanted to say it was Gu Heng, but she had no evidence, and Gu Linchao was wholeheartedly thinking of him. It wouldn't be good for her to suddenly point out Gu Heng at this time, so she asked in an inquiring tone.
“Not a political enemy, but an enemy of our great cause,” Gu Linchao said.
“Bei Di?” Wen Nong Nong sat up in surprise to look at him.
Gu Linchao was surprised that she would suddenly get up. In the dim light, he could vaguely see the girl's beautiful peach blossom eyes staring at him without blinking.
"Yes." His voice was a little tense, and the fingers around her waist tightened unconsciously.
Wen Nongnong lay on top of him, completely unaware that the man's body had suddenly tensed up.
After a moment's thought, she understood.
"The Prince is the biggest obstacle to Bei Di's invasion of Daye. As long as the Prince is there, they will not be able to invade Daye for a day. So they came up with such a despicable scheme to ruin the Prince's reputation, impeach him, and make him lose his prestige. This is probably just their first step. There will definitely be other actions later."
Hearing this, Gu Linchao looked at her in surprise, not expecting that her thoughts coincided with his own.
"Your Highness, am I right?" Wen Nongnong looked at him intently, as if she wanted to be praised.
Gu Linchao said after a long while, "Yes, what Nong Nong said is very true."
This girl has always been smart, but I didn't expect her to be so clear-headed and insightful on important matters. It's truly rare.
Wen Nongnong was flattered by the praise and wrinkled her nose, saying, "Then Your Highness has really hit the jackpot."
Gu Linchao was taken aback and looked at her in confusion. "What do you mean?"
Wen Nongnong said shamelessly, "Because I'm not only beautiful, but also smart. Your Highness is really lucky to have a wife like me."
Gu Linchao chuckled, but said seriously, "Nongnong is right. It is my honor to marry you."
Wen Nongnong was a little smug and was about to say something when the man's large hand suddenly reached out and pressed on the back of her head.
The next moment, the man's warm lips were already kissing hers.
Inside the bed curtains, disordered breathing gradually rose.
After a long while, Wen Nongnong shrank under the man and whispered, "I...I'm not clean yet, we can't do that..."
Gu Linchao's dwindling rationality gradually returned.
He glanced at her apologetically, got off her, and said in a hoarse voice, "I forgot."
"It's nothing," Wen Nongnong replied softly, taking a light breath. She was a little afraid to look the man in the eye because she had also been aroused and felt the heat surging even faster.
Thinking of this, she felt a little embarrassed, and her face flushed.
She lay there, not daring to move, until the man reached out and moved her a little further in.
She glanced at the faint beads of sweat on the man's forehead, thought for a moment, then looked at him again and said in a voice barely above a whisper, "Your Highness, may I... please you?"
Her voice was very soft, but Gu Linchao still heard it.
He turned to look at her, somewhat puzzled. "What?"
Wen Nongnong bit her lip, suddenly moved closer to him, and then crawled into the blankets.
Gu Linchao's body stiffened, and then a strange pleasure swept over him.
His usually clear mind went blank for a moment.
After an unknown amount of time, her strength gradually waned, and then the girl's head emerged from under the covers, panting heavily.
"It's so hot, I'm suffocating..." she muttered, shaking her sore, sticky fingers before collapsing onto the bed.
Gu Linchao's phoenix eyes were dark. After his breathing calmed down, he silently took a handkerchief from the bedside, then took the girl's hand and carefully wiped her fingers clean one by one.
Wen Nongnong was so sleepy that she noticed his actions and a smile appeared on her lips.
It wasn't for nothing that she pleased him.
She closed her eyes and went to sleep with a clear conscience.
She fell asleep shortly afterward.
Gu Linchao listened to her soft breathing and smiled.
This girl, after teasing me every time, she just falls asleep.
He sighed, a hint of helplessness in his expression.
He wiped her fingers clean and then tidied himself up.
By the time we finished, it was already late at night.
Looking at the girl who was already fast asleep on the tatami mat, he put one hand behind his head and didn't dare to pull her into his arms again.
But just looking at her was enough to satisfy him.
He smiled, then slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
...
The next day, it was just getting light.
Gu Linchao woke up and was about to get up when a noise suddenly came from inside the bed.
He turned his head and saw the girl with her sleepy, almond-shaped eyes open, asking in a daze, "How did I get into the prince's room?"
Gu Linchao said gently, "You don't remember?"
Wen Nongnong looked at him slowly, and after a long while, she remembered what happened last night and felt embarrassed.
She was so sound asleep that she didn't even remember coming here last night.
Gu Linchao reached out and rubbed her head. "Sleep a little longer, it's still early."
Wen Nong Nong shook her head, then scrambled to her feet. "No, ever since I married the prince, I've been sleeping in late. The prince goes to court every day, and I haven't gotten up to help you get dressed."
Gu Linchao was taken aback. "So you today..."
Wen Nongnong suddenly climbed off him, then got down and grabbed a comb, eagerly saying, "I want to comb and style Your Highness's hair."
Gu Linchao paused for a moment, then propped himself up from the couch. His long, black hair flowed down from his shoulders as he moved, resembling a piece of smooth black silk.
He asked somewhat uncertainly, "You know how to do hair?"
Looking at his long, flowing hair, Wen Nongnong suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the corner of his mouth, her peach blossom eyes shimmering as she looked at him, "I really, really like Your Highness."
Hearing such sweet words so early in the morning, Gu Linchao's brows furrowed with pleasure.
This girl's lips are truly coated with honey.
"Your Highness, please sit down." Wen Nongnong suddenly urged, then kicked off her shoes, knelt down on the couch behind him, and began to comb his hair. She said confidently, "I promise to make you into a very beautiful hairstyle."
