Psychotic and vicious Crown Prince x soft and delicate young
tly prohibited. Any interference would only make their future cultivation increasingly arduous.Only the boy's youthful physique was once again present in Sīkōng Héngyù's mind.He opened his eyes, and a...No ads!
Because of the prince's words, Ning Shu felt that this night was particularly long.
He wished time would pass more slowly, so he wouldn't have to endure this agonizing wait. He didn't want it to feel like being slowly executed by Lingchi, but Ning Shu always hoped time would pass more slowly, even slower.
By daybreak, Ning Shu only felt that the medicated ointment seemed to have completely melted away and been absorbed.
He pursed his lips slightly, from the initial discomfort to now gradually getting used to it.
Ning Shu couldn't help but sigh, especially when she thought about the prince yesterday putting his finger on her for a little longer than usual. She blushed uncontrollably.
Get up from the bed.
The crown prince had already gone to court. Ning Shu finished her meal and felt listless. She couldn't help but wonder if concubines raised in the imperial palace were like this too.
Every day I eagerly await the arrival of Your Majesty.
Ning Shu felt pity for them, yet she also pitied herself. He was just like those concubines now. Only they were official and recognized, while he was merely a nominal companion scholar in the Prince's residence, actually nothing more than a male favorite.
He is also allowed to go out, but the Crown Prince seems to disapprove of him leaving the East Palace.
Ning Shu acutely noticed that when he first went out, the Crown Prince was clearly unhappy, yet he stroked his blue silk hair and had him cover his face, bringing along several more servants.
He sensed the prince's displeasure, and consequently went out less often afterward.
Ning Shu knew that his face was somewhat eye-catching. Thinking about the incident with the Third Prince last time, he rarely went out of the Crown Prince's palace.
Actually, besides being a bit stifled, the palace lacked nothing.
When Ning Shuxian was free, he would also read and practice. His understanding of this dynasty and this world was not yet very thorough, so when the Crown Prince was away, he would do these things.
Today also.
Ning Shu was practicing calligraphy when a body suddenly hugged her from behind.
He was startled, then realized that within the Prince's palace, besides the prince himself, no one else would have done such a thing. He breathed a sigh of relief.
As expected, when he turned around, he saw the prince's beautiful face, as if sculpted by a fairy.
Ning Shu spoke, “Your Highness has left the court”
The prince's voice held a faint weariness: "Those old geezers are at it again, urging me to marry and have children. They think once my child is born they can get rid of me"
Ning Shu's eyelashes trembled involuntarily.
He thought of the incident when the Crown Prince personally selected his princess. Could it be just an excuse
His heart pounded in his chest unexpectedly, a feeling of anticipation he hadn't even realized he had. He tightened his fingers and said, "...What is your Highness thinking"
The crown prince's peach blossom eyes looked at him and leaned closer.
Thin lips kissed him: "I only want Ning'er."
Although Ning Shu knew the words were a lie, his heart inexplicably fluttered. He hadn't even noticed when the Crown Prince had lifted him onto the table. When he came to his senses, the Crown Prince was kissing him and saying, "Ning'er's handwriting is getting better and better."
Ning Shu's lips were eaten red, she lowered her head and glanced at them, then slowly said: "Not one-third as good as your Highness."
The prince remained silent, only picking at the contents with his hand.
Ning Shu realized he was rubbing against her, and she felt frightened. Her whole body shrank back involuntarily.
Although the prince hasn't made any moves these past two days, who knows if he might suddenly stir.
Fortunately, the prince only rubbed him for a while and didn't do anything else.
Ning Shu's hanging heart finally let go.
But she couldn't help but think in her heart, perhaps... the Crown Prince had already forgotten about that incident, maybe.
Ning Shu was taught the art of ... by the crown prince for a while, and then after they had lunch together, the crown prince went about his other business.
He was bored, so he went to tidy up the flowers and plants in front of the Prince's Hall.
At first, those servants were terrified to see him doing this himself. Later, after the prince's approval, Ning Shu only got this thing that was considered a pastime.
Just as he was tending to his flowers today, he came across the adult he had seen by the window the other day.
The man in official robes stood under the eaves, staring at him for how long he didn't know.
Ning Shu felt a little strange, but the other person's eyes didn't seem unfamiliar to him. They seemed to know him.
Does he know this person
Although Ning Shu had been here many times, he couldn't remember where he had seen this man before. The man was about the same age as his brother and rather handsome. Noticing that Ning Shu was looking at him, he was slightly taken aback before quickly averting his gaze.
Ning Shu thought about it, if he were outside the palace, he would still step forward to ask, but this is the palace.
So he just quietly drew his gaze back.
After tending to the flowers, the young man soon returned to the Prince's Palace.
And Zhao Pingyang also sighed, withdrawing his gaze.
His colleague stood beside him at some point, whispering, “That young man is truly handsome. It's no wonder the prince treasures him so much, forgetting all else.”
Zhao Pingyang couldn't help but frown and said, "Perhaps, he wasn't voluntary."
A colleague chuckled: “What kind of man is the prince, the future emperor Which woman wouldn’t want him Even though he isn't a woman, he's even prettier than them. And being with the prince means endless wealth and glory. How do you know she wouldn't want that”
A surge of anger rose within Zhao Pingyang's heart. He glared at his colleagues, his eyes sharp and intense, and said: "Because I know he isn't that kind of person."
Although he had only met Ning Shu once, the encounter they had at the Ning residence…
The young man was as gentle as jade, his eyes clear and bright. When he spoke, his voice was soft and melodious. Even Zhao Pingyang, who wasn't easily swayed by beauty, couldn't help but steal a few more glances at him.
Ning Shu didn't look at him at that time, but instead told the servant beside her to walk slower.
Watch out, you might trip!
At that time, Zhao Pingyang was thinking to himself, "This young master is a good-tempered and easy person to get along with." He never expected, however, that this very person would become entangled with the prince.
He was also at court, and knew that although the Crown Prince appeared young, beneath the surface lay a ruthless heart, with cold and cruel eyes.
And then I thought of the gentle and refined appearance of the young man.
Zhaopingyang couldn't help but clench his fists. Even with his eyes closed, he could picture himself being toyed with at will by the Crown Prince in the Palace of the Heir Apparent.
.....
Ning Shu still didn't know how she was forcefully seized by the prince in the eyes of others.
After dealing with the noblewomen at the prince's court, he quickly forgot about what had just happened.
Although spring has arrived, the weather is still cool. There was rain a few days ago, but these days have been sunny and clear, though the sky hasn't warmed up yet.
On the other hand, this prince has been living a life of extravagance and waste.
If she were living in modern times, Ning Shu would also feel a bit sorry for the heating bill.
So he suggested, just like the prince had proposed, that if the prince was not there, he would just wear an extra garment. However, the prince did not listen to him and went his own way.
It seemed as though Ning Shu's body required tender care.
The prince hasn't returned early today. But, the maid arrived in front of Ning Shu and said: "Young master, would you like me to prepare bath water for you"
He was slightly taken aback. In the past, whenever he felt like taking a bath, he would simply tell his servants.
But today, it was the other way around.
Ning Shu didn't really think about it, though the sky was still early, it was almost that time. So he nodded slightly and told the maidservant to prepare it.
The hot water is ready in the pool.
Ning Shu intended to go barefoot, but when he saw the reflection in the pool, his expression turned into one of astonishment.
He used to bathe with pampering things, but never with petals.
But today, there were a few more petals.
Ning Shu wanted to ask the maids, but they had already withdrawn. She could only give up. Then, stepping into hot water, she bathed herself.
The petals in the water are really beautiful, like they were carefully chosen.
Ning Shu thought it was a pity. He wasn't a woman, so using these petals for bathing was a waste. However, the scent of the petals was quite pleasant. Ning Shu had absorbed some of the fragrance and didn't find it unpleasant.
He washed for a long time, and then a servant outside whispered, "Young master, today's clothes are ready. The servant has put them here."
Ning Shu responded with a sound, and he understood. He felt that his body had been washed enough, so he got up.
When it came time to get dressed, he was slightly taken aback.
This was different from his usual attire. Ning Shu lowered his gaze to look at the silky smooth garment, which felt cool against his skin. He was speechless for a moment and could only stammer out, “Chun Tao.”
The slave hurriedly walked over and inquired through the curtain, "Young Master, what are your orders"
Ningshu pursed her lips: "Didn't you take my clothes by mistake"
I fell silent for a moment and replied, “Master Young, it wasn't me. It was an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
Ning Shu was taken aback, the Crown Prince
He looked at the garment, hesitated for a moment, then put it on.
Ning Shu put on her clothes and lifted the curtain, walking out from behind the pond. She found that the main hall was empty; Chun Tao, who had just spoken to her, was nowhere to be seen.
He couldn't help but be slightly taken aback, then quickly noticed that a different incense was being burned in the Prince's chambers.
This incense is somewhat mild.
But Ning Shu looked around at the unusual decorations, and even the candles were burning brighter than usual.
He furrowed his brow slightly, seeming puzzled.
Ning Shu walked barefoot, his feet were white and smooth. Stepping on them, the beads swayed with him, making even the tips of his toes tremble with a strange feeling.
When he was at the Ning family, the servants would often stare at the young man.
and now, being pampered by the crown prince like this, she has become even more... breathtakingly captivating.
Ning Shu stepped on the mat, although he didn't feel the chill on his body. But he still felt a little confused, hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to call Chun Tao over.
But then a hand pulled him back from behind.y before, he thought this outfit suited Ning Shu very well, and now he felt even more so.Come here.He spoke in a low voice.Ning Shu walked past, and when he passed the mirror, he saw the figure inside...
