The next day, we followed the plan and Xiu Chenchen sent Marquis Wu to take me back. Anyone with a discerning eye would think that I was going to be taken into the palace by Xiu Chenchen. Who would have thought that this was actually a show we staged.
"Mother Zhang!" Wu Hou shouted.
Upon seeing this, Mother Zhang immediately came out to greet Wu Hou. Just as she was about to speak, her eyes were attracted by a large bag of silver in Wu Hou's hand, "I am here to redeem someone on behalf of my Crown Prince."
Mother Zhang burst out laughing when she heard this, while I sat aside and watched the fun, feeling secretly happy.
"I wonder which girl His Highness the Crown Prince has fallen in love with?" Zhang's mother asked with a smile.
"Sisters, see you later."
I sat firmly in my seat and saw Xiaolian walking down carrying a bundle. She looked very different today. She was wearing a light yellow gauze skirt, her long hair was tied up with an emerald hairpin, and she wore a
A set of pearl necklaces, a platinum bracelet on the wrist, and several sapphire earrings on the earlobes.
The overall appearance gives off the feeling of a good-natured woman.
She walked up to Marquis Wu and bowed: "Xiao Lian, I have met Mr. Wu."
Seeing this, Zhang's mother directly pulled Wu Hou aside and said: "Would you like to persuade His Highness the Crown Prince to consider it? This Xiaolian is a concubine, I'm afraid..."
Before Mother Zhang could finish her words, she was interrupted by Marquis Wu: "Mother Zhang, I haven't said yet who our Crown Prince wants."
"That must be me. On weekdays, only Xiaorou and I have the most contact with His Highness. Xiaorou is not like me and can serve men, so it must be me!" I looked at Xiaolian's sarcastic look and said nothing.
I'll just wait and see how she gets slapped in the face.
"Miss Xiaolian, you think too much." Wu Hou said.
"What's the meaning?"
"Our Highness, the crown prince of the royal family, even if you want to be included as a concubine, it is not your turn. What our prince wants is her." Wu Hou looked at me. Of course, I couldn't act too calm at this time.
Zuo looked at Wu Hou in disbelief, his eyes full of doubt.
I pretended to be surprised and said: "Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince made a mistake? How can Xiaorou He De be able to serve the Crown Prince?"
"Miss Xiaorou is being humble. Miss Xiaorou is extremely smart and is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is reasonable for His Highness the Crown Prince to like beautiful, kind and versatile young ladies." Wu Hou said.
"Master Wu is so complimentary."
"Okay, no more words, I will take you to see His Highness." Wu Hou said and took me to the sedan chair. I looked back at Xiaolian who was standing there, and saw resentment flashing in her eyes.
But it returned to normal immediately.
I was secretly happy and took the bait.
"The Concubine, we have arrived." Wu Hou said respectfully outside the sedan chair.
I opened the sedan curtain and looked around to make sure no one was there, then I quickly returned to the mansion. When Marquis Wu saw me entering the mansion, he immediately closed the door.
"Your Majesty, the Prince is waiting for you in the front hall."
"knew."
Wu Hou left, and I trotted all the way to the front hall.
After I entered the room, I immediately saw Xiu Chenchen sitting on a chair.
He was still wearing a black robe today, and he was still handsome, but more domineering. As soon as I entered the room, Xiu Chenchen raised his head and looked over.
I nodded slightly to him, indicating that I had arrived.
Seeing this, Xiu Chenchen slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and said to me: "I'm willing to come back. I thought you were reluctant to leave that place."
Damn! This man always spoke harshly, so I didn't bother to pay attention to him. I rolled my eyes at him and sat down next to him.
"What to do next?" I asked.
"Don't worry, she will probably take action tonight." Xiu Chenchen said calmly.
"Then will she come tonight?"
"Of course she will come, she is much smarter than you." Xiu Chenchen said with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
I was not convinced, so I continued to retort: "Your Highness, please don't forget that if it hadn't been for my idea this time, you might not have caught her!"
Xiu Chenchen suddenly walked up to me, stretched out his hand and pinched my chin. I looked at Xiu Chenchen who was close at hand, and my heart beat faster. I thought, what does this person want to do?
"So, Lu Wenrou, what reward do you want?" Xiu Chenchen said gently.
My face immediately burned up, I coughed twice uncomfortably, and then said: "I...I want..."
Before I could say anything, Xiu Chenchen lowered his head and kissed my lips.
My head exploded with a bang, what the hell is this? Before I could figure out what to do, this guy actually kissed me.
Xiu Chenchen's lips were gently pressed against mine, and I felt the warmth from his lips. His kiss had a touch of coolness, which made me a little intoxicated.
What's going on? I didn't even think about resisting at all, and I was even a little greedy.
"Lu Wenrou."
"Huh?" I opened my eyes in confusion and looked at him.
"What reward do you want?"
"This...I...I haven't thought about it yet." I stammered.
"It doesn't matter, think about it slowly, and then tell me when you think of it." After saying that, he leaned over and kissed me on the forehead.
Only then did I realize that he had actually taken advantage of me, so I shouted loudly: "You are acting like a gangster!"
"Why did I become a rogue?"
"you you you......"
"Don't you just like my gangster look?" Xiu Chenchen said with a smile.
"Huh!" I gave him a disdainful look.
Xiu Chenchen didn't speak anymore, but continued to drink tea.
I returned to the room and asked Xiaodie to change my clothes. I didn't feel comfortable wearing this charming and sexy clothes at all. Xiaodie changed my clothes again and dressed me up again.
Looking at myself in the mirror, although I am a little less charming, I am much more comfortable.
"Empress." Wu Hou walked up to me and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked his subordinates to tell you that after he goes out later, he also asked the Empress to cover for His Highness. The third prince Xiu Wu may come to the mansion today.
"
As soon as I heard Wu Hou's words, I understood instantly. Today, Xiu Chenchen is still under detention. I had more or less understood it from my previous conversations with several wealthy ladies among the people. Although Xiu Chenchen had been established since he was a child.
He is the prince, but his power in the court is not obvious. Although the current emperor is old, he is not the only one among the princes. The so-called third prince and fourth prince are not easy to use. Every day, they deliberately try to catch him.
Hold his pigtails in order to pull him down from the position of prince.
"I see."
It seems that marrying into the royal family didn't just make him soar to the sky. Now he has to eliminate dissidents for Xiu Chenchen and help him secure the position of prince.
