The girl in his arms had a slender and soft body, and she exuded a mesmerizing fragrance. Sicang restrained the urge to go too far and patted her back stiffly.
"Sicang." Yun Zishu sighed softly, "I seem to like you a little bit."
Sicang's body trembled slightly, and at that moment, he clearly felt the warm air surging in his lungs.
Yun Zishu's voice was gentle and smiling: "Do you like me?"
"Your Highness." Si Cang lowered his eyes and said with suppressed emotion in his voice, "This is a humble position..."
"There's no need to be so raw."
Sicang's voice stopped, he was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "I like it."
"what do you like?"
"I like Your Highness." Sicang pursed his lips, with deep emotion in his eyes, "I like Your Highness, and have done so for a long, long time."
Yun Zishu took a step back and raised a slight smile: "I know."
Sicang's eyes fell on her face and he couldn't bear to look away.
"I've always known that you like me, but I wasn't sure about my feelings for you before, so I didn't dare to respond in a hurry." Yun Zishu's voice was soft, "Although I know your temperament, once I fall in love with you, I will stay with you for a lifetime. It's the best thing to do."
"Don't worry." Yun Zishu raised her hand and put her slender fingers on his lips, "I just think I shouldn't use your likes to satisfy my own selfishness. What you need is a pure emotional response."
Si Cang wants to say that he doesn't mind, even if she doesn't like him, he is willing to guard her for the rest of his life.
But Yun Zishu obviously understood what he meant, "Sicang, the most beautiful relationship is when two people are happy."
Si Cang was shocked, with unbelievable hope hidden in his eyes: "Between the humble position and His Highness...can they be considered to be in love?"
"Forget it." Yun Zishu smiled happily, "After the Xiao family matter is resolved, Xiao Yunheng and I are completely cut off, and the world will know that there is no longer any possibility for him and me, then our feelings will be truly pure."
After a pause, "I just don't know if Commander-in-Chief would mind that I was once married and am no longer innocent?"
Sicang shook his head quickly.
"Xiao Yunheng and I have never consummated our marriage, and we have never even lived together." Yun Zishu raised her eyes and looked at Sicang's face. The man's noble and handsome face really looked like an ink painting. The more she looked at it, the more pleasing she became.
"I am still innocent."
Si Cang lowered his eyes and said in a low and sweet voice: "I know."
Yun Zishu raised her eyebrows: "You know?"
Sicang nodded: "Yes."
"Well, you know it." Yun Zishu raised her lips and smiled, her voice was calm and soft, "I am in a very good mood today, let's have a drink?"
Si Cang snorted.
He was also in a very good mood, so good that he couldn't restrain the throbbing and joy in his chest.
…
"Leng Shuang, am I not dazzled?" On the corridor not far away, Leng Yue quietly glanced towards the flower hall and couldn't help but cover her eyes with her fingers, "Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Commander actually hugged each other? How is this?
What's going on? Is it developing too fast?"
Leng Shuang looked at her silently, noncommittal.
"Maybe the Xiao family was raided, and Her Royal Highness the Princess was so happy that she couldn't help herself." Lianyue came over, holding a plate of freshly cut watermelon in her hand, "But don't tell me, the Commander and Your Highness the Princess
They are a perfect match, one is strong and steady, the other is smart and wise, they are a perfect match."
They also match in appearance.
Although the Lord Commander is a bit colder, there is no denying that his face is really handsome, and the princess's beautiful face is equally stunning.
Leng Yue turned to look at her, took a bamboo skewer from her plate, forked a piece of watermelon and put it into her mouth: "Lian Yue, you are so unruly. Is this watermelon cut for the master to eat, or for you?"
Food for yourself?”
"Originally, it was cut for the master to eat, but I suddenly felt that the master does not need to eat watermelon now." Lianyue looked in the direction of the flower hall from a distance, "They need a quiet space more."
Leng Shuang crossed her arms and refused to comment on what the two of them said.
"I really can't tell that the cold and indifferent Lord Commander is actually a person with deep feelings." Lianyue sighed, "There are too few men in the world like Lord Commander who only know how to protect silently."
Leng Yue's eyes were subtle: "Sister Lianyue has seen so many men, but you haven't met one that you think is good?"
"How many good men are there in a brothel?" Lianyue sneered, "Good men will not set foot in that kind of place."
Leng Yue was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.
Quite true.
Lianyue's task is to travel between brothels and Chu palaces, often dealing with people from all walks of life, and few of the men she comes into contact with are peaceful.
Serious men rarely set foot in that kind of place.
"I hope that the lover of the Commander-in-Chief and His Highness the Princess will eventually get married." Leng Yue was extremely envious, "Let us also witness the beautiful relationship."
"Leng Yue." came the order from the flower hall.
Leng Yue was startled and hurriedly ran to the flower hall. Yun Zishu and Sicang had already sat down at the table: "Go and get two jars of good wine."
"Yes." Leng Yue agreed, "I will ask the kitchen to cook some small wine and side dishes. Drinking wine without eating vegetables will harm your health."
Yun Zishu hummed, "It's up to you."
Leng Yue felt blessed and turned around happily to leave.
She must have the kitchen prepare some delicious food so that the Lord Commander and His Royal Highness the Princess can enjoy a good meal.
If you're in a good mood, it's time to celebrate.
"The temperaments of these women from the Shadow Pavilion are completely different." Yun Zishu looked at Leng Yue's cheerful back, "Leng Yue looks very happy, while Leng Shuang keeps his emotions and anger hidden most of the time."
Sicang's eyes fell on Yun Zishu's face and he hummed absentmindedly.
Leng Yue's work efficiency is very high. There are many people in the kitchen, and the wine and food are prepared quickly. In order to worry about Her Royal Highness getting drunk, Leng Yue brought her fruit wine that is not intoxicating. It is sweet and sour with a little bit of wine, and is very
Delicious.
The whole afternoon, Sicang and Yun Zishu sat in the flower hall drinking, one glass after another. Yun Zishu had hardly drank wine before, but this fruit wine tasted really good. She accidentally drank too much, about eight
After nine glasses of wine, my cheeks began to turn red and my eyes looked a little misty.
"Sicang." Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess raised her eyes to look at Sicang, her voice became hoarse, and her eyes fell on Sicang's face, "You are so good-looking, with such appearance and such demeanor... You are better than the princes of the royal family.
He looks much more dignified and calm."
Sicang reached out to take her wine cup and put it on the table, holding her shoulders: "Your Highness is drunk?"
"Huh?" Yun Zishu reached out and touched his face, as if fascinated, "Cold and stylish, good-looking, really good-looking..."
Sicang's handsome eyes were locked on her rare charming look, and his eyes were full of tenderness, "I am humble enough to send His Highness back to his dormitory to rest?"
"Okay." Yun Zishu nodded and put her hand around his neck, "You can carry me back."
Si Cang pursed his lips slightly, and a smile escaped from the corner of his mouth: "Yes."
He thought her drunken look was cute, different from her usual cold and transparent look, but still fascinating.
