Liu Shi sends White Heart Jade to the Crown Prince

  He Ming was stunned. What does Your Highness mean?

  But he was stunned for just a moment, as for these preferences between men, how could He Ming not know?

  After he came to his senses, he suddenly burst out laughing, a laugh that could be said to be understanding of others.

  "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, it's indeed a bit interesting to hear that. Who would have thought that a deaf and mute guy like you could actually have a normal day? It's truly unbelievable!"

  Xia Yunhao raised an eyebrow, and his eyes sparkled with interest: "From what you said, have you seen the foolish appearance of Princess Cheng Wang before?"

  He knew that Chong Wang had married a useless person, and at that time he was still ridiculing Chong Wang behind his back for a long time, even mocking him several times in front of Chong Wang. What kind of woman does Shu Xia country not have? They actually went to marry a useless person.

  However, after seeing that so-called waste today, he really has some mind. Elegant and straightforward, eloquent, especially when talking about their sisterly affection, the hidden cunning energy makes it hard for people to ignore.

  It is said that Cheng Wang found a highly skilled doctor to cure the woman, and now that he has seen her, it's really hard for him to imagine what she looked like when she was a waste of space.

  He Ming, in order to please Xia Yunhao, naturally spoke without reserve, but as soon as he thought of not getting his way back then and sleeping with an old woman instead, his evaluation of Bai Xinyan naturally became much worse.

  "Crown Prince, I won't hide it from you, that little Crown Princess, I've seen her once before, and at that time, she was really foolish to the point of being unable to describe, and couldn't even take care of herself."

  "Hmm~" Xia Yunhao suddenly chuckled and said, he really couldn't imagine the scene of that woman being unable to take care of herself.

  Looking at Xia Yunhao's unintentionally revealed smile, it was clear that he was particularly interested in Cheng Wangfei. He Wei subtly hooked the corner of his mouth, and his evil eyes also raised a calculating smile.

  "Alright, everyone. The prince has had a long day and should get some rest now. If there's nothing else, you can all disperse." He said to the others in the house.

  Present were mostly the young masters of official families, also good friends who eat, drink and have fun together. Upon hearing He Ming's words and looking at the expression of the Crown Prince, everyone in their hearts had some numbers, however, everyone also knew what to say and what not to say.

  At this moment, He Ming took the initiative to substitute for the Crown Prince, and everyone did not show any dissatisfaction. After Chao Xia Yunhao bid farewell, each of them hugged or held the dancing girls and left.

  "Crown Prince." Seeing people walking away and only the two of them left, He Ming stepped forward and called out in a low voice.

  As for He Ming's way of driving people away, Xia Yunhao didn't feel the slightest displeasure, and instead had an extra thread of admiration in his heart. Indeed, he was a person with exceptional discernment, far surpassing ordinary people.

  "He Ming, you should know what's on Her Majesty's mind, shouldn't you?" Xia Yunhao asked with a raised eyebrow, his tone implying something profound.

  He Ming's dog leg smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, as long as you want to do something, He Ming will get it done for you, even if he has to climb a mountain of knives or jump into a sea of fire."

  Xia Yunhao nodded.

  However, He Ming did not feel happy about it, but instead suddenly felt a bit embarrassed: "Your Highness, I have something else to explain to you."

  "You said."

  "It's said that Emperor Xuan is extremely fond of Empress Xuan, and everything is arranged with utmost care. If the Crown Prince wants to... then he must plan carefully."

  Xia Yunhao nodded, stroking his chin: "You're right. I must plan carefully."

  He wants that woman, not just a temporary interest. Women, after all, are not just about her alone, the most important thing is to see whose woman she is.

  If she were an ordinary woman, how could she have entered his eyes?

  Who made that woman someone nobody likes, yet she's Cheng Wang's woman?

  The plan that made Wang lose face and reputation failed, he really didn't give up.

  Cheng Wang was very fond of that woman, wasn't he? Then let's see how he reacts when Cheng Wang finds out his own woman is sleeping with someone else.

  He wants to step by step make the king's reputation collapse, making him unable to stand in the imperial court, in the Shu Xia country, let him roll out of the capital, or even make him disappear from the world...

  After sorting out his thoughts, Xia Yunhao suddenly looked at He Ming with half-closed eyes: "He Ming, do you think your wife is trustworthy? If I let your wife help me with something, will she betray me?"

  Upon hearing this, He Ming was taken aback for a moment. After understanding the meaning behind it, he cupped his hands and replied seriously:

  "Your Highness, although my wife and the princess are sisters, they don't have much of a relationship. Moreover, she is now a member of our He family, and we all rely on you; she will also be loyal to you."

  "He Ming, go and bring her here, I have some things to instruct her to do?" Upon hearing the satisfactory answer, Xia Yunhao didn't hesitate much either, and directly gave the order. It wasn't that he trusted a woman so much, but rather he trusted the He family."

  He Ming roughly guessed what he wanted to do, and answered very simply: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, please wait for a moment, I'll go call her over."

  ……

  When Bai Xingbi entered this magnificent room and saw the man leaning comfortably on the soft couch, she felt a little nervous.

  Although she had met the prince before her marriage, it was always at some celebration or birthday banquet. This close contact was still a first for her. She couldn't help but steal a few more glances at the man lying on the soft couch with his eyes closed.

  The several princes of Shu Xia Kingdom are all quite impressive. They are all handsome men with their own unique charm.

  Among the grown princes, only the Crown Prince and King Pongdeok. However, King Pongdeok is slightly arrogant and rarely gets close to the high-ranking officials in the court, it's said that he doesn't like others flattering him. This was what her father told her at home.

  For a man as noble and arrogant as Feng De Wang, she naturally couldn't muster up any interest.

  As for this prince, if Shu Xia Kingdom didn't have Cheng Wang, the prince could be considered as the number one handsome man in Shu Xia Kingdom.

  His handsome appearance plus his unattainable status, I don't know how many young girls' hearts he has captivated. But because of Cheng Wang's existence, this crown prince was instantly eclipsed.

  Firstly, it was because of the emperor's favoritism that a royal prince from a different surname received imperial grace that surpassed all the princes and princesses. Secondly, the crown prince was stunningly beautiful, to the point where one could say he was so beautiful that he didn't seem like an ordinary person. However, if a man has a feminine appearance, then his masculinity would naturally be greatly discounted.

  How can a delicate and beautiful man compare with a steady and reliable Crown Prince?

  Just as Bai Xingbi was sizing up Xia Yunhao while secretly evaluating him, Xia Yunhao suddenly opened his eyes from his meditation.

  Her slender eyes sparkled like a lake, with an innate nobility in their clear and quiet depths.

  The moment he saw Bai Xinbi's appearance, Xia Yunhao narrowed his eyes slightly.

  Seeing that he was awake, Bai Xingbi hastily gathered her thoughts and stepped forward, bowing her head and kneeling: "The humble woman greets the Crown Prince, may the Crown Prince live for a thousand years, a thousand years, ten thousand years."

  "White, lift your head."

  A clear and crisp voice with a commanding tone came from above her head, Bai Xingzi responded, but due to her feminine reserve, when she lifted her head, she lowered her eyelids and didn't dare to look straight.

  Although she was given the sixth-grade official He Ming, she who grew up in the University Scholars' Mansion since childhood had received many teachings, but from her every move, it can be seen.

  It was unclear whether the Crown Prince had recognized her when she was in the pavilion during the day, but at this moment, she had changed into a different set of clothes, tidied up her makeup, and with her gentle voice and elegant demeanor, it would not be an exaggeration to describe her as "a nation's beauty, born of fragrance".

  Looking at the beautiful face in front of him, a strange glow flashed through Xia Yunhao's narrow and long phoenix eyes.

  As expected, they are sisters from the same parents, their facial features are exactly alike.

  No, to be exact, the face in front of me is even more beautiful. Her skin is like jade, her cheeks are rosy and her eyebrows are delicate, and her figure is even more plump than that of Princess Cheng.

  "Bai Shi, do you know why I summoned you?" Xia Yun Hao asked casually as he looked at her.

  Bai Xinbi shook her head and replied cautiously: "In response to the Crown Prince's words, this humble woman is ignorant, please inform me, Your Highness."

  "You get up first."

  "Thank you, Your Highness." She stood up straight, Bai Xinbi slightly bowed her head, with a very respectful attitude. In fact, she was also curious about what the prince wanted to do with her, that He Ming suddenly called her over, but didn't let her come in together, just saying that the prince had something to say to her.

  She is just a woman in the inner chambers, what could be worth the prince's personal summons?

  "Bai, I've heard that you and Princess Cheng are sisters from the same womb. Is this true?" Xia Yunhao asked suddenly, his flat tone revealing no emotions, but carrying an irresistible aura.

  "Reporting to the Crown Prince, the little woman and Princess So Yong are indeed sisters born of the same mother." At the mention of Baek Hyeon, Baek Hyeon's heart was filled with resentment, and unknowingly, a hint of hatred also crept onto her face.

  Two sisters fighting, Xia Yunhao didn't see it with his own eyes, but he saw the two sisters looking disheveled at the same time. Now, catching the hint of hatred on Bai Xingbi's face, he suddenly curled up the thin lips that were still red and moist, and asked in a good mood: "Bai, I heard that your sisterly relationship with Princess Cheng is not very deep, is there any reason for this?"

  "I think it's likely that He Ming said something to him, but I don't intend to hide my hatred for Bai Xiner either. After a moment of silence, she replied truthfully: 'Reporting to the Crown Prince, there is indeed a deep grudge between me and Princess Cheng. Other women can be ignored, but Princess Cheng has been inauspicious since birth, and at the age of two, she was born with a fate that led to my mother's death. Naturally, I harbor hatred towards someone who caused me to lose my mother from a young age.'"

  At this moment, Bai Xingbi has already felt that Xia Yunhao is probing her. As for what he is probing her about, she doesn't dare to make a conclusion yet. But she knows that the Crown Prince and Cheng Wang are not on good terms, so they definitely won't have a good impression of Cheng Wangfei either. And all she needs to do is to make her stance clear, choose an angle that opposes Cheng Wangfei, this way she definitely won't be wrong.

  But she wouldn't be foolish enough to tell the crown prince that she hated Bai Xinzhu because she couldn't marry Cheng Wang herself.

  As for her answer, Xia Yunhao didn't show any displeasure. Instead, he suddenly asked seriously: "If so, have you ever thought of avenging your mother?"

  Bai Xin was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head and let out a soft sigh: "Don't be fooled, Your Highness. I've long wanted to drive her out of the Bai family, but unfortunately, I'm alone and powerless. Moreover, she has Cheng Wang as her backing, so even if I want to deal with her, my heart is willing but my strength is insufficient."

  "What if I say that I'll be your backing and help you deal with her?" Xia Yunhao suddenly asked.

  "......?!?" Bai Xin's heart was suddenly filled with shock, joy and disbelief.

  Looking at her reaction, Xia Yunhao's mouth suddenly curled up with a hint of evil: "If I become your backer, how will you repay me? You should know that what I want is someone who is loyal and dedicated to me. How can you make me believe in you so that I can help you?"

  "......?!" Looking at Xia Yunhao's eyes, which were more beautiful than a woman's, the faint color floating inside made Bai Xinbi suddenly lower her head.

  If she could get the recognition and support of the Crown Prince, that would be the best. This was something she had never thought of before.

  But how can she make the prince trust her?

  "Alright, I'm tired. You may leave first." Suddenly, Xia Yunhao withdrew his gaze and lay down on the soft couch with elegance and laziness, closing his eyes to dismiss the guest.

  "Yes, the little woman is leaving." Bai Xinbi didn't know what had changed him so much that it almost took her breath away. But she didn't have the courage to stay here, nor did she have the courage to ask the prince for help. As she left, she couldn't help but take a glance at Xia Yunhao on the soft couch, leaving with disappointment and despair.

  Not long after, He Ming walked in and saw Xia Yunhao resting, so he decided to leave.

  "Congratulations." As he turned around, Xia Yunhao's lazy voice came from behind him.

  "Your Highness, I've come at a bad time and disturbed your rest." He Xiang walked over with a smile.

  "Has your wife returned?" Xia Yunhao lifted his eyelids and sat up.

  "His Highness, I have already let her go back." He Ming replied.

  But Xia Yunhao suddenly stopped speaking and got up to pour himself a glass of water at the table.

  He Ming didn't know what he was thinking, and could only guess his thoughts in his heart. But no matter how much he guessed, he couldn't understand why the prince wanted to summon his woman. Just now he also asked that little cheap person, but there was no answer.

  Just as He Ming was at a loss for what to do, Xia Yunhao's voice suddenly reached his ears.

  "Your wife is indeed a great beauty, I didn't expect you to be so lucky, able to marry the eldest daughter of the Duke University. In comparison, my crown prince's consort is only the daughter of a second-grade official."

  As soon as he heard this, He Ming's face turned pale on the spot. Previously, because he had married the eldest daughter of a university scholar's family, he was showing off everywhere and was complacent. But at this moment, he suddenly wished that he had married an ordinary woman!

  The prince's words, though tinged with envy and jealousy, were actually a reflection of his own feelings of inadequacy compared to He Ming.

  How can this be good for him?

  Should I go back and divorce that woman?

  But will your parents agree?

  What's the point of being so beautiful if she doesn't have any brains?!

  He saw a mixture of emotions on Hua Ming's face, including frustration, annoyance and distress. Suddenly, Xia Yunhao reached out and patted him on the shoulder, flashing a captivating smile that was more charming than any woman's, but with a hint of ulterior motives behind it.

  "He Ming, I have always treated you as a brother, never as an outsider. Do you also think so?"

  He Ming was still tense from Xia Yunhao's previous words, when he was suddenly patted on the shoulder, and upon hearing Xia Yunhao's words again, it was as if he had been suddenly awakened, and he immediately came to his senses.

  Everyone is a man, and they also play with women together on ordinary days. If he can't hear such an obvious hint, then it's all been for nothing after playing with so many women over the years.

  This suddenly made him also somewhat stunned.

  That little scoundrel, although she lost her virginity before marriage, has had a thorn in his heart until now. However, this little scoundrel has become more and more likable to him lately, and if he were asked to let her go, he would really feel some reluctance.

  The most important thing is whether that little rascal will agree?

  What if she tells her parents about it?

  Xia Yunhao saw that he understood and also saw his hesitation, thin lips pursed, he indifferently waved his hand: "Forget it, tonight's words are all just my drunken nonsense, you can go down now."

  Upon hearing this, He Ming suddenly became anxious. If the prince considered tonight's words as mere drunken talk, then what about his promotion? Wouldn't it all be for naught?

  If there was no Crown Prince to help him, he didn't know how much effort it would take for him to climb up. Although his father had a certain prestige in the court, his father was an old stubborn man who would scold him every time he mentioned letting him run errands for himself. He said that he was having wild fantasies, being overly ambitious, and not striving for progress... In short, he would say a bunch of unpleasant and hurtful words.

  In order to get rid of his current idle job, he also went to the White Mansion to find his father-in-law, but unexpectedly that old man was even more overbearing than his own father. As soon as he mentioned what he wanted, the old man coldly asked the steward to have him leave the White Mansion, and if there's a word for being heartless, then this is it.

  Why did he encounter so many old things in his life?

  Either scold him for being useless, or don't treat him as a human being!

  He still doesn't believe it, without the help of these old things, he can't get by!

  In an instant, He Ming had already made up his mind.

  What's a woman? Hasn't he played with enough women in his lifetime?

  That little wretch was already a withered flower when she married him, could it be that she still wants him to pity her?

  Moreover, for her own future and official position, that woman should have supported him without hesitation!

  Let her sleep with the prince, and it's actually a bargain for her!

  After realizing that his official position was above everything, He Ming hastily knelt down and bowed to Xia Yunhao, saying: "Your Highness, He Ming's loyalty is as clear as the sky. Everything He Ming has belongs to Your Highness. If Your Highness wants it, He Ming will naturally offer it with both hands without a single word of complaint."

  Upon hearing this, Xia Yunhao finally looked over with a serious expression: "Not forcing you?"

  He Ming shook his head resolutely: "This is He Ming's own voluntary act, absolutely no coercion whatsoever."

  Two men, neither of whom had explicitly stated what it was for, but who had reached some kind of shameful agreement in their ambiguous conversation...

  ……

  He Ming and Bai Xinbi also stayed overnight at Gu Mengju due to their own father's influence.

  Bai Xinbi returned to the temporary arranged room, still frowning and not understanding the intention of the Crown Prince's summons tonight.

  She thought of many possibilities, but they were all denied by herself.

  It wasn't until He Ming returned to his room that she suddenly realized, her eyes widening in near-disbelief, and she couldn't help but scold him:

  "He Ming, are you still human? You're simply a beast! I'm your legitimate wife, the daughter-in-law of the He family, and you actually... actually made me go..."

  He Ming's face turned iron-green as soon as she opened her mouth, and before Bai Xinbi finished scolding, he suddenly became angry and said: "Shut up! You this cheap woman, how dare you say that I am your legitimate wife, touch your heart and say, are you worthy?"

  Her face turned pale as she bit her lower lip, and tears burst out of her eyes instantly.

  All this time she had been enduring humiliation and trying her best to please him. In front of others, she had to be a gentle, elegant, virtuous and sensible daughter-in-law; behind their backs, she had to endure the hardships of serving this man who was worse than an animal. But what did all her endurance and attempts to please him bring her?

  This man, who appears to be a decent and upright person but is actually a depraved and perverted individual, is her own husband, the one she has entrusted her life to. Yet, this so-called husband tells her to go and serve as a concubine for the crown prince!

  She knew that losing her virginity before marriage was something unbearable for others, but was this what she had intended?

  Does she think she's willing to lose her virginity?

  Does she think she doesn't want to live a good life?

  It's not her fault, she is also a victim!

  She bit her lip, looking like she wanted to kill him. He Xiang became even more annoyed and spoke even more shamelessly.

  "With your withered and worn-out body, you still want to pretend to be a virtuous and chaste woman? Don't you even dare to take a good look at yourself and see what kind of character you are? The prince deigning to look at you is already a blessing that you've accumulated over several lifetimes. You ungrateful wretch, don't you know your place in front of me, yet you still dare to shout and scold? If it weren't for the sake of my parents, I would have kicked you out of the He family long ago! You were married to me, and not only was your body ruined by others, but every day you also put on a dying look, as if I had mistreated you. Tell me, in what way have you been worthy of me?"

  Bai Xin's fists were clenched tightly, her fingernails digging deep into her palms, and her lower lip was bitten so hard that it almost split open, with beads of blood seeping out to stain her lips.

  He Ming seemed to have not scolded enough, and continued to scold without restraint: "I just asked you to accompany the prince to sleep, I didn't ask you to die, what's wrong with your brain? Women in bed, aren't they all happy, let alone it's the prince, can't you be satisfied? Even if you're not willing, you have to consider me, serve the prince well, when I get promoted, won't I reward you?"

  Those words full of shame pierced her mouth like an awl, making her feel so miserable that she wanted to die.

  Suddenly, her pupils constricted, as if she had made some kind of determination, and she loosened the fist that was tightly clenched, and suddenly rushed towards the beam on one side.

  "Damn it!" With He Ming's angry curse, Bai Xinbi was instantly grabbed and thrown onto the bed.

  Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise this woman would have been killed by him!

  These stinky girls actually dare to threaten her with death, if it weren't for the fact that she still has some use for herself now, he wouldn't even bother whether she's dead or alive!

  Bai Xinbei was ruthlessly slammed onto the bed, biting her lower lip which had broken skin, staring deathly at the man approaching her.

  Looking at the woman's sudden strong appearance, He Ming suddenly became worried that if he really forced her to death, wouldn't he be greatly wronged?

  It's not good to talk about the Emperor and Empress, but it's even more difficult to explain to the Crown Prince. Should I tell the Crown Prince that this woman is unwilling? He will think that he didn't discipline his own woman well, and she was rejected by another woman.

  If this angers the crown prince, will he still have a future and official position?

  Thinking of this, He Ming's expression involuntarily relaxed a little.

  Forget it, let's just coax this little wretch into agreeing first, no matter what method is used, she must be made to willingly agree. Otherwise, if she runs to her parents and tells on us, we'll be in trouble.

  He sat down on the bed, put his arms around Bai Xin's shoulders and let out a heavy sigh. His expression changed from anger to softness as he said: "I'm telling you, why are you so foolish? What were you thinking? This thing is indeed my fault, but can't you think about it? That's the Crown Prince we're talking about, not just anyone! Do you want me to go against the Crown Prince? Don't you know what happens when you go against the Crown Prince? Not only will I lose my life, but the entire He family, including you, will be implicated. Since the Crown Prince has taken a liking to you, shouldn't you seize this opportunity? You think everyone can be favored by the Crown Prince from afar? Haven't you thought about serving the Crown Prince well and having a powerful backer in the future, making your own life easier? This is a good thing that others would beg for, how could you push it away?"

  Bai Xin's eyes were blazing with anger as she listened, the first few sentences still filled her with hatred, but the last few sentences suddenly made her calm down gradually.

  Today, the prince also said that he was willing to be her reliance when talking to her, but she was too silly. When the prince asked her to show sincerity in exchange for his trust, she didn't understand it at first.

  At this moment, He Ming's words suddenly made Bai Xinbi thoroughly understand.

  She stopped crying, stopped making a fuss, and didn't blame him anymore. She quietly sat in He Ming's arms, letting her chaotic mind gradually clear up.

  He Ming is indeed not a human, but he said one thing that was right. She should seize the opportunity and grasp the prince's big tree!

  Thinking of her current life, every day is spent in suffering. Thinking that she was once the proud daughter of a university professor, but now being bullied and beaten by a useless person. Until now, her stomach still hurts, but for the sake of her own dignity and pride, she can only swallow these grievances and pain into her belly, even letting it rot.

  Why did she become like this? Why did she encounter so many painful things, wasn't it because she didn't have a strong backing?

  Now that she has married into another family, her father and grandmother are no longer reliable. Moreover, everything about her now is caused by her grandmother, she hates it so much, how can she ask for help from her? Even if she pities herself, she is still not a match for Wang!

  She wants to find a backing! Find a very big backing!

  She wants revenge!

  Those who humiliated her, those who pushed her into the depths of hell, she didn't want to let a single one of them go!

  As he watched her emotions gradually calm down, He Ming's tone became even softer. When it came to coaxing women, this was his forte. For him, as long as He Ming wanted to coax, there wasn't a woman who couldn't be coaxed.

  "Alright, don't be angry anymore, look at you, getting so angry will hurt your husband's heart."

  "I've said it before, I'll get better and better for you, as long as you obediently follow me. Even if you want a star in the sky, I'll find a way to bring one down for you."

  "Just scolded you, actually I'm heartbroken too. You're so gentle and understanding, as a husband, I couldn't bear to scold you, but instead want to hold you in my arms and cherish you. It's just because you're stubborn and don't understand my thoughts that I got angry. From now on, I won't be harsh with you again, I'll definitely spoil you more."

  "I've been busy with work lately, and I feel guilty for not spending enough time with you, leaving you alone at home feeling lonely. From now on, no matter how busy I am, I'll definitely rush back to be with you, and never let you feel lonely again."

  "Those servants at home, if you don't like the look of any of them, just throw them out of the house. These ignorant and insolent maidservants are really lawless, they even dare to bully their masters, it's simply infuriating!"

  "I heard that there's a temple fair tomorrow, and it just so happens that I'm free tomorrow. I'll take you out for a stroll to clear your mind, and at the same time, accompany you to buy some things. When the time comes, if you like something, just tell me, even if it means I have to spend all my money, I'll buy it for you."

  These words that could move heaven and earth, move the land, kept coming out of He Ming's mouth, as if the most perfect man in the world was saying the most moving sweet nothings to his dearest.

  It's just that I don't know if the birds will fall from the sky and die after hearing these words, or if the fish will drown in the water after hearing them. Anyway, Bai Xinbi was almost disgusted to death by him.

  What kind of person is He Ming, she is the clearest. It can be said that in this short one or two months of getting along with each other, she understands him more than his parents do.

  If his words are believable, then there would be no 'beasts' in this world!

  She thinks that even if she hates her, it's an insult to herself. What she wants is not to hate him, but to kill this beast with her own hands one day, because every time she sees him, she feels disgusted!

  He Ming was definitely unaware of Bai Xinbi's thoughts. If he had known, he would have strangled her to death with his own hands instead of waiting for her to kill herself.

  "Come, baby, wipe away your tears. Look at you now, it's really heartbreaking for me." He said softly, using his sleeve to gently wipe the corners of her eyes. Under his tightly furrowed eyebrows, his evil-looking dark eyes were filled with heartache.

  Bai Xinbi sniffled and suddenly looked at him, calmly asking: "Did the prince say when I should go?"

  Since it's been decided, there's no need to be reserved about anything. She also hopes her wishes can come true sooner!

  Upon hearing this, He Ming finally let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this woman still knew what was good for her, otherwise this matter would have been really difficult to handle!

  "The prince lets you make your own decision."

  Bai Xin blinked her eyes: "Alright, I'll go find the prince tomorrow night."

  He Mingyang smiled and suddenly rolled onto the large bed behind him, pinning Bai Xingbi underneath. He pretended to savor the taste and said: "Wow, you were just struggling for your life earlier, but now you can't wait? Tonight, you'll be accompanying the prince, so shouldn't you accompany your husband tonight? It's a good opportunity to compare, who's more capable, me or the prince?"

  He fell, and directly cheated on Bai Xinbi's lips——

  A tangled web of love and desire unfolds in this room——

  The next day

  He Ming really kept his word and took Bai Xinbi to the temple fair, also buying her many clothes and accessories. Moreover, he didn't stop asking about her well-being along the way, making many women who were out on excursions feel envious.

  He Ming himself was not bad-looking, and with the air of a young master, he had now transformed into a good man with twenty-four filial virtues, which really attracted the attention of many young women. Even the number of women who went to draw lots to ask about their marriage fate increased...

  The two of them brought the attendants from the mansion out from early morning and played until nightfall. He Ming made up a reason to let the attendants return to the mansion and inform that tonight, he would be staying outside with Er Shao's wife. The Shangshu's wife was still somewhat surprised when she heard this. However, after hearing about the loving couple's outing and play today, she suddenly smiled with relief and didn't ask any more questions.

  At this time, in a stylish and elegant courtyard house in Beijing

  He Ming lay on the magnificent couch, surrounded by four or five seductive and charming women.

  Pinching legs, feeding him wine, casting flirtatious glances, revealing deep affection, for a time, in this luxurious bedroom, various charms took turns performing.

  He Ming himself was also busy, hugging this one, kissing that one, holding this one, touching that one, his expression was incredibly beautiful and proud.

  These dancing girls are secretly kept by the Crown Prince, and outsiders can't even see them, but he, the Crown Prince said, let him enjoy as he pleases...

  In a magnificent room not far away

  A woman sat on the edge of the bed, wrapped in a thin camisole. The silk fabric was thin and transparent, highlighting her slender and seductive figure even more. Her delicate face had a hint of shyness and allure, with a waterfall of black hair hanging down to her waist, adding to her charm.

  By the woman's side, a man sat with an equally stunning face. At this moment, his collar was half open, revealing skin whiter than the woman's, like snow. The man's thin lips, red and luscious, curled up slightly, with a hint of mischief in his faint smile, and a depth that couldn't be measured. His eyes, like a serene lake, narrowed slightly, fixed intently on the woman's bashful and charming face.

  He thought it would take a lot of effort to get her to agree, after all, no matter what, she was still a member of the Shangshu Mansion. But unexpectedly, in just one day, she had already come around.

  Of course, he didn't think that women who take the initiative to seek pleasure are cheap. On the contrary, he was even more satisfied with this woman.

  At least it proves that this woman is not ungrateful, on the contrary, she made a wise choice.

  He Xia Yunhao can get any woman he wants. Even if she doesn't agree, he has ways to get her anyway. It's just that the consequences after getting her are different...

  Looking at the woman in front of him, Xia Yunhao couldn't help but think of another one. Although these two sisters have some differences in their figures, they still have the same face, and sleeping with her should be no different from sleeping with that other woman.

  He really wants to know now, if Zou Jing knew he had slept with this woman as his own, what would be his reaction?

  Long fingers gently stroked over the woman's jade-like cheek, falling on that beautiful chin, and slightly lifted it up.

  "Tell me, is this your own wish?"

  Bai Xinbi, who had long gone through the matters of men and women, was tense and uneasy at this moment, but she didn't feel any fear about what was to come. After all, this path was one she had chosen herself. It was also the path she urgently wanted to take at this moment...

  Looking at the handsome face in front of her, which seemed a bit soft and beautiful, she flashed a determined look in her eyes, nodded slightly, and said with a gentle tone: "Your Highness, Bi'er is willing to do so from the bottom of my heart. From now on, I will be loyal to you forever and never betray you."

  The man's red lips lightly pursed, outlining a charming and sinister smile.

  The magnificent bed curtain slowly fell down, candlelight shining on it, only two shadows slowly falling down.

  ……

  Heir to the Imperial Palace

  In the backyard, a group of craftsmen were busy repairing houses and building new ones. Suddenly, a majestic middle-aged woman arrived with many maidservants in tow, exuding an air of authority. These craftsmen, who had been invited from outside, naturally did not know the identity of the middle-aged woman, but judging by her demeanor, they guessed that she held a significant position within the Prince's mansion.

  Then everyone looked over there together, looking at what the comer was going to do.

  Looking at a group of strangers appearing in the backyard, and then looking at the foundation that was about to be completed, Qiu Shi coldly shouted at the crowd:

  "Who allowed you to be here? You are so bold, without my permission, you actually dared to encroach on the land that I have pledged to the Wang Manor. Stop at once!"

  Everyone was somewhat bewildered. "......?!"

  They can come here, naturally it is the master of this place who let them come, how did this woman rush out to block them?

  One of the older craftsmen stepped forward and replied, "Ma'am, we were summoned by the steward of the Wang estate to build a house here. Is there a problem with that?"

  "Building a house?" Qiu Shi glared, her face filled with anger, and loudly ordered the maid beside her, "Go, get Zhou Bo to come over! I want to see how he's been doing as the general manager. How dare he do such a thing behind my back!"

  The maid took her orders and left.

  A group of workers who were repairing houses nearby stopped what they were doing and gathered around.

  Before long, a man in his fifties rushed over, who was Zhou Bo, the general manager of Cheng Wang Fu.

  "Old lady, how did you come?" Zhou Bo asked respectfully with a smile.

  "Zhou Bo, who told you to invite these people here? Whose idea was it to build houses here?" Qiu Shi asked with a serious face.

  "The old lady is the queen's order, saying that a room should be built here for Dong Shu to take care of his old age." Zhou Bo replied with a smile.

  "Good-for-nothing!" Upon hearing this, the Qiu family was furious. "Just a useless servant, and yet he dares to dream that we, the Wang family, would build him a house and support him in his old age?"

  Listening to Qiu's scolding, Zhou Bo's smile on his face suddenly stiffened, and a chill rose in his heart. The old lady was autocratic before, but now she is even more ruthless and unreasonable.

  Dong Shu had been working hard for the Wang family for nearly ten years, but was inexplicably driven out by Old Lady to the backyard. There wasn't even a place to take shelter from the rain, wasn't this trying to freeze Dong Shu to death? If it weren't for the kind and benevolent Princess who persuaded the Prince, Dong Shu would probably have no way to survive.

  And he is also at an age, Dong Shu's ending made him see his own future. Can this not make people feel chilled?

  They don't ask for a happy old age, but at least let them die in peace?

  Looking at the silent Zhou Bo, Qiu Shi pointed to a group of people not far away and shouted at him: "Don't you hurry up and stop them, drive them out of Cheng Wang Fu, what are they doing here? Do you want me to take action myself?"

  Zhou Bo took a cold breath, remembering what Bai Xinzhi had said before. He looked at Qiu Shi and calmly said: "Old lady, this matter was not decided by me, but by the princess. She said that if anyone opposes it, they can go to the main courtyard to find her."

  As he said this, Zhou Bo couldn't help but wipe away a sweat for Bai Xiner. He just didn't understand why the princess insisted on taking it upon herself when it was clearly the prince's order. The old lady was so overbearing and unreasonable, while the princess was so weak and vulnerable, if the old lady really went to the main courtyard, the princess would definitely be at a disadvantage.
