The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

When Nan Wangyu and Lu Lingxi returned to the Prince's Mansion, it was exactly noon. After they finished their lunch together, Lu Lingxi went to take a nap while Nan Wangyu went to the study to read.

In the afternoon, Lu Lingxi was half asleep when she was woken up by Nan Wangyu. He sat down beside the bed, leaned over, very close to her ear, and whispered, "Lingxi, get up!" His voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, but his breath was all sprayed on Lu Lingxi's ear.

Lu Lingxi felt an itch near his ear, opened his eyes dazedly, and saw a magnified face in front of him. He shuddered with fear and blurted out: "Brother, just talk if you want to. Who are you trying to scare to death by getting so close to me?"

Nan Wangyu only heard the word "big brother" and didn't hear anything else. He smiled and asked with a face that deserved a beating: "Why did Lingxi suddenly remember to call me big brother? Is it a nickname you gave me? I don't like "big brother" very much, how about you call me "brother"? "

"elder brother?"

The following 'I can't say it out loud' hasn't been said yet, and Lu Lingxi's tone is clearly rising, with a questioning tone.

Nan Wangyu quickly agreed, "Oh! Lingxi is so good!" and reached out to touch her head.

Lu Lingxi waved his hand away in dissatisfaction, rolling her eyes. Why did this man always ignore her and indulge in... in... sweet love? She couldn't think of the right words to describe it. Oh no! Forget it, it's impossible to argue with him now anyway.

"Why did you wake me up? What's going on?"

Nan Wangyu stood up to let Lu Lingxi stand up, and said, "Let's go shopping together. You haven't had a good shopping trip for a long time, right? I still have time to accompany you these few days, but I will be busy later and it will be difficult to find time to accompany you."

"How do you know I haven't been shopping properly for a long time? Did you send someone to monitor me?"

In fact, Lu Lingxi just asked casually and didn't really think that Nan Wangyu was secretly monitoring him.

But Nan Wangyu couldn't answer this question, so he could only fool around: "Um... well... I asked Chunhong when you were having lunch just now, and she told me."

"Oh, okay, I'll pack up and we'll go. It's been a long time since I went shopping, and it's a good opportunity to buy some things as wedding gifts for my brother and sister Gu."

Lu Lingxi got out of bed and put on his shoes while talking, in a good mood.

"Okay, as long as you are happy, you can buy whatever you want today and your husband will pay for it." Nan Wangyu was also happy to see Lu Lingxi so happy, and generously said that he would pay for all the expenses today.

After putting on her shoes, Lu Lingxi arranged her hair in front of the dressing mirror. Although she felt that the word "husband" sounded a bit awkward, she didn't care about it because she was about to make him spend money. She turned around and said to Nan Wangyu happily, "Thank you in advance!"

Nan Wangyu smiled and walked forward to help Lu Lingxi smooth out the two tangled tufts of hair behind his head that Lu Lingxi couldn't see. He said, "What are you thanking me for? There's no need to thank each other between you and me, a couple."

Fortunately, the nap was not too long, so Lu Lingxi's hair was not very messy when he slept. He just needed to comb it a little. From the bronze mirror, he saw Nan Wangyu standing behind him, and he also saw him combing his hair. It was quite touching to see him with his eyes on her. If he could talk more normally on weekdays, and if he didn't have so many concubines, it would not be unacceptable to be with him. What a pity, there are not so many "ifs". Then we can only be friends.

"Oh, I see. I'm fine. Let's go." Lu Lingxi said with a hint of loss.

When the two of them walked out of the room, Chunhong and Liulu, who were waiting at the door, followed them, intending to serve them. After they had followed for a few steps, Nan Wangyu noticed and turned back to say, "You don't have to follow. Lingxi will be fine with me. I will take good care of her."

Seeing that Chunhong and Liulv were a little hesitant, Lu Lingxi said, "You guys just stay in the mansion and take Changwei and Xiaohua for a walk. They are new here and are unfamiliar with it. They will be scared if someone else leads them."

Lu Lingxi spoke, and Chunhong and Liulu quickly replied, "I obey your command."

After making arrangements with Chunhong and Liulu, Nan Wangyu took Lu Lingxi and left the Prince's Mansion.

When getting on the carriage, Lu Lingxi saw another carriage behind.

After Nan Wangyu also sat down in the carriage, Lu Lingxi asked, "Who's sitting in the carriage at the back? Do you want to go shopping with us?"

Lu Lingxi thought it was Concubine Su. After all, Nan Wangyu and she were newlyweds and childhood sweethearts, so it was normal to take her shopping together. But she felt a little uncomfortable. She always made trouble for her before, one thing after another, and she hadn't started to fight back yet, so she couldn't go shopping with her in a calm manner. Could it be that Nan Wangyu didn't let Chunhong and Liulu follow just now just to let her face Concubine Su alone, to make her compromise and reconcile with Concubine Su to maintain the illusion of harmony in the Prince's Mansion and the harem?

Thinking of this, Lu Lingxi narrowed his eyes and looked at Nan Wangyu with a little anger in his eyes. If this is true, I will never let this guy go. No one will have a good day today.

Nan Wangyu was unaware of Lu Lingxi's mental activities. When he heard Lu Lingxi's question, he replied, "Oh, there's no one in that carriage. Didn't you say you wanted to buy a lot of things? I specially asked them to prepare a carriage for the things. Buy as much as you want. Let's fill up the whole carriage and go back home."

"Ah?" It turned out that Concubine Su was not in there.

Hearing Lu Lingxi's questioning tone, Nan Wangyu was also a little confused. Was there anything else he hadn't explained clearly? So he also replied with a "hmm?" in the same upward tone, expressing his doubts.

Lu Lingxi thought about the ancient Chinese novels and TV dramas he had read before, and said, "I read in the storybooks before that when the wealthy families went out shopping, they would just tell the boss to send the item to their house and ask the butler to pay for it. Do they really need to take it home in a carriage?"

Of course, she would not tell Nan Wangyu that she had just guessed that the person in the carriage behind was Concubine Su, and that she had already begun to get angry silently, so she just made an excuse.

Nan Wangyu laughed and said, "Lingxi, how can we believe everything in the storybook? Of course, we can do this, provided that it is inconvenient to carry the large items we buy, such as screens, tables and chairs, stone benches, etc. We buy small items, and if there are many of them, we can take them back home by ourselves. If the store delivers them to the house by itself, the time is different, and there are many kinds of items. The housekeeper has to wait for them all the time, which wastes time and has no time to arrange other things, which is bound to make mistakes."

Lu Lingxi nodded: "Yeah, that makes sense, you are quite considerate."

Nan Wangyu moved closer, almost face to face with Lu Lingxi, and said mysteriously, "And Lingxi doesn't know that at this time, there are often bold merchants who take advantage of the situation. They hear other shop owners say when seeing off guests at the door: 'Don't worry, I will pick the best goods and send them to your house.' When they see that this shop has ordered things from several shops, they will also mix in to deliver the goods to the door and find the housekeeper to settle the bill. Sometimes the owner has not returned home yet and has not informed the housekeeper, but the housekeeper accepts the goods and pays the money without knowing the reason. The owner may not count the goods when he returns home. Often, the clues are not found until the account book is looked through afterwards. At this time, it is not easy to find the store to return the goods, so you can only acquiesce. Many people have been fooled by this. Now most people don't allow door-to-door delivery."

When Nan Wangyu said this, he had a gossipy look on his face, and it was obvious that he had heard it from someone else.

Lu Lingxi looked at the gossipy face of the Crown Prince and was very curious. As the crown prince of a country, he was still paying attention to these things? It was really wonderful to have such a handsome face and a gossipy face!
