nant belly. They knew how to keep their mouths shut, after all, this was the person the general valued most.And the doctor, over these days, had likely already guessed Ning Shu's identity.I was deeply...Every year, the emperor would hold a hunting expedition lasting three to five days.

This year's hunt has been rather unfortunate, with several incidents occurring. First, the county princess of the Duke's Mansion fell from her horse and lost her life.

Then the Third Prince ran into a ferocious beast while hunting, nearly losing his life and being so frightened that he was unable to function.

Then, the few scholar-officials who had entered the palace also met with misfortune, but they were insignificant and no one paid any attention to them.

Even the Holy Emperor wasn't in good spirits. Feeling out of place, he decided to return to the palace early.

Ning Shu also followed the Crown Prince back to the palace.

Since that day when he grew closer to the prince, every time he thought about it, he felt a little uneasy.

Ning Shusheng was afraid that after today, he would be willing to do that kind of thing for the Crown Prince, enduring it. Perhaps next time, he could do even more ambiguous things, such as...such as when the Crown Prince had relations with him.

He sternly warned himself, digging his nails into his palm.

Ning Shu told herself to stay clear-headed and delay as much as possible.

The crown prince still has half a year before he marries his princess. By then, he might even have to move out of the East Palace.

After Ning Shu figured it out, she stopped thinking about these things.

After returning to the palace, the prince couldn't stop thinking about the events of that day's hunt.

He became increasingly affectionate and tender with Ning Shu, often hugging him from time to time.

Ning Shu now felt more like a male consort than a companion. He finally understood how people in the palace viewed him – simply as a male consort who warmed the prince's bed.

He once thought of himself as just a companion to the prince in the palace, but he didn't know that, in the eyes of the third prince and his group, he was seen as someone else entirely.

Ning Shu didn't feel humiliated at all.

He hadn't expected this, but by chance and coincidence, the Crown Prince had become interested in him. Now Ning Shu worried day and night that one day, the Crown Prince might suddenly...

It's fortunate that the medicine still needs to be administered a few more times.

Ning Shu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to worry about this now.

The weather is still cold, and it has been raining continuously recently.

Ning Shu was in the prince's hall, and she didn't feel cold at all. Because what she was standing on was an ancient form of underfloor heating. Her body was warm, and even if she wore less clothing, it wouldn't be a problem.

The prince came back from outside and took off his clothes.

Ning Shu, seeing this, went up to him and said, "Your Highness."

The Crown Prince embraced him, his voice as sweet as music, "Why are you wearing so little"

Ning Shu quickly said: "Your Highness, there is floor heating in the Prince's Mansion, I'm fine."

The Crown Prince said nothing.

He simply carried him onto the bed and dismissed the extra palace maids.

Ning Shu was embraced by the Crown Prince.

The prince's body was surprisingly strong, despite his handsome and tall stature. When dressed in fine clothes, he looked like a dashing young warrior; however, he possessed no lack of physical strength that one would expect from such a physique.

After the prince got onto the bed, he lowered his head and kissed him.

Ning Shu's eyes were slightly red, he pushed the Crown Prince a few times, but couldn't move him, so he could only let him be.

The prince first ate at his lips for a while, then softly said: "I want you, I want you to the point of madness."

Ning Shu's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "…Your Highness."

The Crown Prince looked down at him, his brow furrowed. He gently touched the man's jet-black hair and then spoke: "I know, it's not the time yet. I won't harm you."

Ning Shu also knows.

He merely pursed his lips, the prince said so. But what was behind him, was full of vigor and spirit.

The prince was rubbing against him impatiently.

Ning Shu is a living person, she's not a piece of wood. She couldn't help but grab the prince's clothes with her slender fingertips.

He pretended not to know.

But the prince instead leaned in and kissed his ear, then whispered his name.

Ning Shu suddenly had a bad feeling.

As expected, the Prince inserted his finger into his silken hair, then used a slightly coaxing voice, tinged with the pleasant timbre of youth, and said: “I want…”

Ning Shu just listened to him finish his remaining words.

He pursed his lips and said, “But Your Highness, after I did that for you last time, I couldn’t eat for two days...”

The prince tucked a strand of his blue silk hair behind his ear, stroking it gently.

"This time, I will definitely not let you suffer so much."

The prince, of course, had no idea of the hardships involved. After all, he was a prince, and never understood these things.

But he was the one who suffered.

Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then still somewhat reluctantly refused.

He really didn't want to get into trouble. The prince didn't know about his special talent, nor did he know what made him different from ordinary people.

The Crown Prince spent a good while admiring the young man.

Then, unseen by him, he narrowed his eyes and, lowering his head, leaned in close to the person's ear and said: "If Ning’er is willing, then this king will gladly add another..."

Ning Shu: “.....” Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He couldn't say he was unmoved by the Crown Prince's words. If they were given another chance, it would mean that he and the Crown Prince... would have a little more time together.

Ning Shu is not ready yet.

He really didn't know how to face the prince. Other times he had broken boundaries. But just thinking about what was in those scrolls, he panicked first.

Besides, the prince will have to take a wife in the future, with three thousand beautiful women in his harem.

Ning Shu admitted that she did have some resistance to furthering the relationship with the Crown Prince.

He was somewhat reluctant.

Ning Shu didn't know why he resisted, why he was unwilling. He feared if he thought one step further, he would agree to the prince, so maintaining his current state was enough for him.

......

Ningshu got up from the prince's body.

He swore this was the last time, if the prince ever brought up such a decision again... he wouldn't agree to anything.

The prince, on the other hand, wore a look of utter satisfaction.

He held the young man's body, his eyes dark and scrutinizing, staring intently at this face of unparalleled beauty.

Then he spoke, "I can't wait."

Ning Shu's voice was a little tired, he couldn't help but speak: "Your Highness said so, don't go back on your word."

The prince, however, looked at him with deep-set eyes and said in a low voice, "Doesn't Ning'er want to be intimate with me"

Ning Shu didn't know why goosebumps were popping up all over her back.

His lips were still slightly chapped and unnaturally flushed. He bit his lip nervously, his voice low and husky as he mumbled a half-hearted excuse: "Your Highness, I was simply not ready. Of course, I desire your affection."

The Crown Prince slowly held the young man in his arms, his mind reeling at the thought of what that mouth of his had just touched.

My heart felt an unusual sense of fulfillment.

Some with joy opened his mouth: "My heart delights in you, and I want you by my side forever."

....

Ning Shu didn't take the prince's words to heart. Her mind was lost in thought: even if the prince were speaking truthfully at this moment,

So what

He will still have a Crown Princess, and there will still be a group of concubines.

Then Ning Shu brought herself back to the present.

He opened the window of the Prince's Hall. It was raining heavily outside, and there were quite a few fish in the water under the eaves. He stood by the window, listening to the rustling sound of the rain. Seeing this, a servant girl came over in alarm and said: "Young master, it's raining quite hard. If you catch a cold, it wouldn't be good."

When Ning Shu heard this, she came back to her senses and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to take a look outside."

I brought a piece of clothing and then retreated.

Ning Shu was wearing the white-trimmed garment when, in the rain, he saw a man in official robes.

The other party seemed to notice his gaze and lifted their eyes to look over.

Although it was a distance away, Ning Shu could still see the other person, and they saw him as well. He paused for a moment, then gently nodded in greeting.

And when that man's gaze fell upon his face, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

Ning Shu saw him staring at her, and couldn't help but be startled.

He felt as though he had never met this person before, but the other party seemed to be staring at him constantly.

Seeing this, Ning Shu couldn't help but take down the window.

While Zhao Pingyang stood under the eaves at this moment, a colleague in similar official robes came out from inside. Following his gaze, he couldn't help but say, "Lord Zhao, what are you looking at the Crown Prince for Be careful if the Crown Prince sees you, that wouldn't be good."

Who doesn't know that the Crown Prince is cruel and ruthless Though handsome, he has a heart as venomous as a serpent.

Zhao Pingyang withdrew his gaze and said, "I just saw an acquaintance. Acquaintance isn't quite the right word, I guess. We only met once."

Colleagues couldn't help but wonder: "Oh, who is it Do I know them"

Zhao Pingyang said nothing.

Actually, he also saw the young man at that hunting event. He knew the young man's older brother. A few months ago, he went to the Ning family and saw Ning Shu as well.

It seems like the other party doesn't seem to remember him.

Zhaopingyang felt a tinge of disappointment.

He knew it was normal for the other party not to remember him, after all, he had been following behind the other party's older brother at the time. The young man then raised his head and glanced at him hurriedly.

But Zhao Yangping merely caught a fleeting glimpse.

I can't forget that face.

Later, he went to the capital and heard that Ning Shu had also come to the capital and was going to enter the palace as a companion reader for the crown prince.

Who is the prince

Zhaopingyang still knew it clearly in his heart, but he hadn't had time to find an opportunity to meet the young man. When they met again, he saw the prince carrying him down from the carriage.

He was overwhelmed with a myriad of emotions.

There's a complex feeling I can't quite describe.

Zhao Pingyang thought to himself, the Ning family must have been thinking about their influence in Beijing. Otherwise, why would they send their youngest son here

It's clearly intended to serve people with her looks.

....

Since the Spring Breeze Pavilion was raided, the Moon Red Building, which used to operate a similar business, has actually become more prosperous.

Customers are coming in constantly.

But today a special guest arrived.

That person's life radiated nobility, with a face so beautiful it was like that of an immortal, leaving one with unforgettable memories.

This guest ordered two young male companions.

The two young male servants were overjoyed, gazing at the person before them with infatuation. They also secretly competed with each other, vying for attention and affection.

But who knew, upon entering the room, the guest looked at them with cold eyes and nonchalantly said: "Go to bed and show me what you can do. Do well, and there will be a generous reward."ding him in her arms, then rubbed his head gently.But her lips twitched upward slightly.Ning Shu, smelling the pheromones on Alha's body, couldn't help but think of the deviant Alha from just now. She...
