“Don’t stay there in a daze. Quickly leave; otherwise, His Highness is going to punish you guys for ruining the moment.” The head guard chided as he waved his hand for them to swiftly set off. Acknowledging his order, the group of guards quickly began to row, soon reaching the banks of the Merchant River. We’ll come back again early …

On a small path in the backyard of the Prince Hao Residence, Wu Ling had finished dealing with the guards that had fallen unconscious on the ground. Luckily, they only fainted, and their lives are not in danger. He was making his way through the courtyard when he noticed something shiny in the grass. Picking it up, he realised that …

“Replying to the Princess Consort, she has a slim figure, and possesses a pair of sword-like eyebrows along with a heroic aura.” The guard respectfully answered. Since they were a rare trait in women, the visitor’s eyebrows had been her most memorable trait. Hearing about the heroic sword-like eyebrows, Su Xi-er was reminded of someone ー Mei Jinxiu. Isn’t she …

She immediately nodded. “I am willing, but I won’t stay here forever. I must return to Nanzhao and take back my home!” Su Xi-er faintly smiled. “Those two goals are not in opposition with one another. As long as you carry out your tasks properly from now on, we will bury the hatchet.” Mei Jinxiu naturally understood what Su Xi-er …

Su Xi-er stared at him. Even though the burden on his shoulders is so great, he’s trying to act casually so that I won’t worry. Her heart ached as she raised her hand to pat his head, her tone affectionate when she spoke again. “Lianchen, you have grown up.” A disconsolate feeling also crept into Ning Lianchen’s heart.

At the same time, Ning Lianchen understood Pei Qianhao’s intentions. As such, he only gave a slight smile before lifting the carriage’s curtain and boarding. Only after he was seated did Pei Qianhao himself board. After everyone had taken their seats, the guard driving the carriage cracked the horsewhip, and the carriage headed for the capital gate with Nanzhao’s soldiers …

“Lianchen, be careful with what you do. I will help Nanzhao in other aspects.” Su Xi-er reassured him with a smile before reaching out her right hand curled into a fist. The siblings would always do this whenever they faced challenges. Understanding her intention with one glance, Ning Lianchen reached out his left hand and wrapped it around Su Xi-er’s …

“Is your heart aching for this Prince?” Pei Qianhao grasped her hand and pressed it to his cheek, his other hand circling around her waist to bring their bodies tightly together. Su Xi-er nodded. “Of course my heart is aching for you. From now on, I will shoulder part of your burden as well.” I must do what I can, …

A low chuckle escaped from Pei Qianhao’s throat. He moved closer to her, allowing her to feel his warm breath beside her ear. “What do you think this Prince wants to do?” His hand continued roaming around her waist, as if it was about to slip inside. Su Xi-er grabbed his hand. “We’re outside; you’re not allowed to mess around. …

Yuchi Mo had just reached the entrance of the main hall when he happened to chance upon this scene, his eyes growing wide in astonishment. The wedding was only yesterday, yet Princess Consort Hao is already managing Prince Hao. Despite that, Prince Hao’s expression is not only natural, but it looks like he’s also trying his best to please her. …
