My Highness Hears My Thoughts, And Still Plays Along
Chapter 52 - 50: Fainted?
CHAPTER 52: CHAPTER 50: FAINTED?
Feng Xuan stood there straight, expressionless, looking cool, handsome, and composed.
However, at this moment, his heart was about to twist into a bun...
How should he say it?
Say that his master was taking a cold bath inside?
If he said it, wouldn’t the Empress Dowager explode?
"Commander Feng, what’s the matter? Is there any difficulty?"
Mrs. Hong was an elder in the palace and had seen everything; she was already as refined as an old spirit.
While asking that, her footsteps were already headed toward the courtyard.
Feng Xuan flashed before her, blocking Mrs. Hong’s path.
Mrs. Hong looked at him, more convinced of her suspicion.
"Did His Highness instruct you to guard the door?" Specially to block people!
"Is something happening inside?"
Feng Xuan: "Nothing is happening, everything is normal. The master will come out shortly."
How could nothing happen?
The master was halfway through his medicinal bath when the princess sneaked in.
Then the master suddenly thought. Spring. Thoughts? Oh, in any case, it was just that lonely man and woman in a room, with warm spa water and a beautiful bright moon... and then...
But who knows what happened, the master suddenly asked him to send in cold water!
Oh right, he also asked to send in a set of women’s clothes.
Mrs. Hong didn’t believe Feng Xuan’s words at all and went past him, "His Highness has been in the medicinal bath for over an hour. Bathing any longer might harm his health."
"The Empress Dowager specially instructed me to invite His Highness to Changle Palace for dinner."
The Empress Dowager was mentioned, implying, how dare you still stop me?
Finally, as Mrs. Hong was almost ’slashing’ her way to the hall door, Feng Xuan could only use a big move:
"The princess is inside."
Sure enough, Mrs. Hong paused her steps, looked at Feng Xuan, seeing he didn’t seem to be lying, and glanced at the tightly closed hall door.
Her eyes slightly shifted, revealing a myriad of ambiguous smiles.
"So, it’s the princess! Why didn’t you say so earlier? Okay, I got it, I’ll go report back to the Empress Dowager."
Mrs. Hong turned around smiling and walked a few steps before suddenly turning back.
"Tell His Highness not to worry, or I can have dinner sent right here."
Feng Xuan: "..."
Have his master drink soup while soaking in cold water?
...
No one knows how Mrs. Hong reported back to the Empress Dowager, but anyway, after hearing, the Empress Dowager almost burst into laughter.
"He must be shy, not letting people say! These two children, their affection is really good! I’m so gratified."
Mrs. Hong: "Exactly! With the combination of the soup and this medicinal bath, calculating the time, its effects should indeed occur after dinner, yet it took effect early!"
"This shows our prince likes the princess!"
Ask any normal man, facing the woman he adores, how could he not be restless, secretly moved?
The Empress Dowager was in an excellent mood today, everyone at Changle Palace received a reward.
She also ordered a message to Minghua Palace, telling Nangong Mo to return directly to their chamber after the ’medicinal bath’, she would have dinner sent over.
...
When Yun Ran woke up, she found herself back in the chambers, lying in a soft, comfortable bed.
Outside the window, the night was enchanting, and inside, the candlelight flickered, casting a warm, gentle glow.
Scenes flashed through her mind, thousands of charming images.
Yun Ran abruptly sat up in shock but fell back onto the bed as her body turned soft.
She felt weak and powerless all over.
Yun Ran blinked in confusion, biting her lip and trying to recall what happened before.
That black-hearted, shameless Nangong Mo, after doing all sorts of embarrassing, rogue things to her, right at the last moment when he was going to... did she black out?
