Tang Xiu considered himself successful, even though he had calculated every move. But this was a sign of intelligence, not stupidity; foolish people were the ones who got played.

"I don't understand, since you know my identity, why not just follow me? What's the harm?"

Although Tang Xiu didn't have a main wife, his concubines were also gentle and affectionate towards him, adoring and worshiping him. In the capital city, countless noble daughters wished to become his woman.

This woman, she's not on the same level as those people, yet she keeps rejecting me.

"Well, fine clothes and rich food."

Tang Xiu sneered, "Does that sound like you dislike it?"

“The Crown Prince is indeed brilliant beyond compare. Su Wen has been poor since childhood, and one day he only wants to farm with his beloved ones, staying away from the hustle and bustle.”

Tang Xiu shook his head, sat up, and his ink-colored long hair cascaded over his shoulders.

Once upon a time, she was so much in love with this.

A person, having lived a lifetime anew, cannot tread the old path again.

"Toiling the fields, being trampled underfoot, treated with disdain, barely earning a few ounces of silver all year... With your talent, your beauty, your sharp mind, wouldn't that be a waste?"

In

Su Wen's "Tracing Lips," she unwittingly found the answers to what she had been searching for in her past life.

He likes his own things, but it's these hands that can play the piano, this plain face, and his own intricate thoughts and ability to calculate horoscopes.

"If *The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine* was missing these parts, would His Highness still want me to be yours?"

Tang Xiu narrowed his eyes, meeting her empty gaze. For some reason, he felt as if he had been seen through by her.

He did like her skills, but there was also a little bit of something else, though not much.

"These are all yours. How do you separate them? Your talent and abilities are intertwined with you, just like me. If I were an ordinary person without this glory, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance to share tea with Miss Suwen, or enjoy the flowers under the moon."

Suwen smiled, admitting she couldn't argue with him.

"His Royal Highness is right about everything, but there's one thing. If you weren't a prince today, Su Wen would sell all his possessions and follow you to the ends of the earth, no matter what."

"A joke," Tang Xiu thought Su Wen was being a little too pretentious.

Su Wen shook her head lightly, her thoughts, he would never truly understand.

"Your Highness, it's getting late. You should head back early."

In the *Classic of Internal Medicine*, Fu lived a good life, so when it was time to leave, she set out. She had walked this path many times before, and even without maidservants, she could depart on her own.

However, Tang Xiu got up and quickly came before her, grabbing her wrist.

Her repeated refusals and her contempt for his esteemed status utterly enraged Tang Xiu.

He didn't know how he could put on such a good show in front of others, yet here with her, he felt like his mask had been ripped off. He couldn't feign anything.

"Although I can't bestow upon you the title of Empress, I can guarantee you a life of wealth and splendor. To be my woman is something many dream of. With such an identity, why would you refuse? How dare you refuse?"

According to The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, if he wanted to take her life, she also had the right to refuse.

"Your Highness, is this an order or a question?" Su Wen asked calmly.

Tang Xiu looked at her pale face and once again felt a sense of frustration.

Ultimately, he let go of her hand.

As a prince, he couldn't possibly force himself on a woman.

That was a great shame for him.

"Go away!"

The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine: "After receiving blessings, the body is blessed. Turning around, he groped his way away.

But the man behind her wouldn't give in, voicing his discontent, "Su Wen, you are mine, and can only be mine."

Suwen smiled, even if he took it by force, what he took was only her physical body. As for her heart...

In this life, she must protect herself well.

……

Tang Xian's alcohol tolerance was actually very good, and his demeanor while drinking was impeccable. If he hadn't intentionally wanted to tease the little girl, things would have been fine long ago.

The carriage had stopped, Fu Jiujiu glared at him, and Tang Xian ignored her.

Fu Jiujiu winked at the hand that was holding her, signaling for him to let go quickly. Yanyu and Nianxia would be here soon, so they couldn't be seen like this.

Let's just keep it low-key between us. In front of others, she's still quite shy.

After all, this was her first love in two lifetimes.

Tang Xian seemed to be doing it on purpose, she just wouldn't let go. Fu Jiujiu was even ready to take action, but just as footsteps approached, her hand returned to freedom.

She rolled her eyes at Tang Xian.

"Princess! Can you come down?"

"Listen to this! Fu Jiujiu's face flushed instantly. What was going on? Why couldn't she get out of the car? It must be that Yan Yu thinking all sorts of messy things."

"Of course I can." Fu Jiujiu lifted the car curtain, intentionally making a big gesture just to let them see that the two of them were innocent and nothing had happened.

Yānyǔ pursed her lips, “Master, would you like to rest here with me?”

"No, he's going back to his own home." Fu Jiujiu cut Tang Xian off before he could speak, not giving him a chance.

Tang Xian smiled twice, "Take good care of her."

He has something else to do.

Fu Jiujiu noticed that the two maids' eyes were off. Clearing her throat, she reminded them, "If you two dare to think wildly again, I'll send you back and replace you with two obedient ones."

Both Yanyu and Niànxià have been with her for a long time, so who wouldn't know her temper?

"My lady, please don't! This servant knows she was wrong." Nian Xia pretended to look frightened, but then burst into laughter. "My lady is becoming increasingly clever, knowing what thoughts we have in our hearts?"

Smoke and rain shoved her, telling her to stop talking. Didn't she see the young master's face was so red it was almost visible?

Although men can lose control sometimes, she believes her master would never do anything improper to the young lady.

"Nian Xia, don't cause trouble anymore." Yan Yu spoke up to save Fu JiuJiu from the situation.

Nian Xia lightly patted her own mouth and said, "Yes, no more talking. My Lady, I didn't think of anything. You mustn't think too much about it."

Fu Jiujiu glanced back at the two people, then shook her head. "Forget it. These two are getting bolder and bolder."

Where is Princess Mingyue?

She was also a little drunk, Young Master Seven was taking care of her.” Yanyu said.

The carriages were originally meant to travel in a line, but for some reason, hers seemed to lag further and further behind Tang Xian's. She was truly grateful for the guard who drove her carriage!

Take a look back at two pieces of stinky tofu, then coat them with some durian sauce. If that's not enough, how about some sardines in oil?

"County Princess, wouldn't you get some hangover soup for the princess?" Nian Xia asked.

"Fu Jiujiu shook her head. 'Nianxia, you're usually so clever, but this time, you're not as good as Yanyu, are you?'"

Nianxia didn't understand, but Yanyu laughed, "Seventh Young Master takes good care of the princess. It's more effective than hangover soup."

Of course, if Athu Xiu is very drunk, Fu JiuJiu would naturally have to take care of him. This slight intoxication, well, let it be, don't ruin the atmosphere.
