The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Just as Lu Lingxi watched Chunhong and Liulu leave, he reached out a hand from behind and put it around Lu Lingxi's shoulders; at the same time, he reached out another hand and covered Lu Lingxi's mouth and nose with a handkerchief with a strange fragrance.

Lu Lingxi's first reaction was: What's that smell? It smells pretty good. His second reaction was: Oh no, my kidneys are in danger! Then he fainted.

When Lu Lingxi woke up, she found herself tied up on the bed. She twisted her body instinctively and found that it was really tight. The joints on her back and neck creaked as she twisted. Her body was stiff. It seemed that she had been unconscious for some time.

Lu Lingxi moved around for a while and was about to look around to observe the environment when someone sitting at a table not far away asked, "Miss Lu, are you awake? It's been a long time since we last met. How are you?"

Lu Lingxi looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Prince of Qi, Nan Jingye. He was puzzled: Although I don’t think highly of this person, I don’t have much interaction with him. I hope I didn’t offend him?

Thinking of this, Lu Lingxi asked the doubts in his heart: "I wonder what your Highness the Prince of Qi means by this?" He nodded and indicated to His Highness the Prince of Qi that he was still tied with ropes.

Nan Jingye smiled falsely and said, "Oh, I don't have any other intentions. I just want to have a good chat with Miss Lu, exchange feelings, and reminisce about the past."

This left Lu Lingxi speechless. He asked in disbelief, "Your Highness, have you not been around for a long time? Don't you have any common sense? Who would drug someone and tie them up to communicate with them?"

Nan Jingye continued with a fake smile and said, "It's not that Miss Lu has suddenly become aloof since she got engaged to the emperor. She hides at home and doesn't even step out of the door. She even cruelly forgot about her former lover. Do you want to forget about your old love now that you have married a rich man?"

Lu Lingxi was shocked and blurted out: "Old love? With whom?"

Hearing Lu Lingxi's question, Nan Jingye was sure that the rumor about the young lady's amnesia was true. She definitely didn't have an old relationship with someone. Even if she did, the people in the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion would definitely not mention it on their own initiative. If she brought it up now, no one would help her to distinguish the truth from the false.

So he immediately changed his expression, from fake smile to a face full of affection, and ran over to help Lu Lingxi up, saying sadly: "Before I saw that you were cold to me, I thought you were also a greedy and vain woman, with the title of future crown princess and dream of being the queen, so you looked down on me. I didn't expect that you actually lost your memory. If you lost your memory, why didn't you send someone to explain to me, making me sad for so long in vain?"

Lu Lingxi was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He even forgot to say honorifics: "I have lost my memory. How do I know I need to inform you? No! No! That's not the point. The point is, do you mean that we had an affair before?"

When he heard the words "having an affair", the corners of Nan Jingye's mouth twitched imperceptibly, and he thought: "This Miss Lu is really as vulgar as the rumors say!"

But Nan Jingye still tried his best to control his expression, acted affectionately, nodded, and said "hmm" in an ambiguous way.

In fact, Lu Lingxi didn't quite believe what Nan Jingye said. She thought that if the original owner really had something with the Prince of Qi, Chunhong would have reminded her when she first met the Prince of Qi by the Chunhui River. After all, she has always been thorough in her work.

Wait, my brothers did try to stop me from going to the King of Qi at that time. Could it be that this really happened, but they just didn’t want to say it out loud?

Forget it, let’s confirm this matter after we get back. Now let’s stabilize the King of Qi first.

Lu Lingxi said in a coquettish tone: "Your Highness, now that the previous misunderstandings have been resolved, can you help me untie them? Look, my wrists are all red."

Nan Jingye saw that Lu Lingxi's attitude softened, and he couldn't help but feel conceited, thinking: This girl is easy to deceive, shallow, and can be fooled by just a few words. Of course, it may also be that he is charming and the person in front of him has already liked him, and all the previous things were just lust.

Nan Jingye was lost in his thoughts and did not move his hands.

Lu Lingxi called out anxiously, "Your Highness, my hand hurts, can you help me untie it?"

Nan Jingye finally came to his senses and quickly walked around from behind Lu Lingxi to her front. He put his hands on Lu Lingxi's bound hands and squeezed them greasyly before starting to untie Lu Lingxi.

When Lu Lingxi felt Nan Jingye's greasy pinch, she really wanted to punch him in the head. Damn it, he took advantage of me. But she still held back, after all, she was in his territory now, and she didn't know the situation. It wouldn't be too late to deal with him when she was sure she could get away.

After his hands were untied, Lu Lingxi moved his wrists, which also made a creaking sound. He untied the rest of the ropes on his body and legs by himself.

What she said to Nan Jingye was, "Your Highness, my feet are dirty and I'm afraid I'll dirty your hands." In fact, she was afraid that he would take the opportunity to touch her again.

Nan Jingye was used to a life of luxury and was not capable of doing such things, so he did not say much and walked to a table nearby and sat down.

Lu Lingxi untied all the ropes, put his clothes in order, and then came to the table and sat opposite Nan Jingye, intending to find out about his current situation from him.

"Your Highness has…" Lu Lingxi paused for a moment. He wanted to say "tie me up", but then he thought that according to what he had just said, this might upset him, so he changed his words and said, "What do you want to do by asking me out? Since we have a relationship before, why not just tell me what's going on and we can discuss it together."

Hearing Lu Lingxi's question, Nan Jingye suddenly became affectionate again, "Lingxi, in the past few months of separation, I found that I still can't forget you. Don't marry my brother, and make peace with me!"

Lu Lingxi followed his words and asked, "Reconcile? Your Highness, you and Gu Yan'er were having a hot affair before. Even if she can't become the Princess of Qi, your first wife is destined to be a member of the Gu family. Reconcile, do you want me to go back with you and be your concubine?"

Nan Jingye pretended to be sad and said, "Lingxi, I know you want your husband to be as loyal as the Marquis, but what man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Isn't it enough as long as you are the most important to me? The women in my brother's backyard are dozens of times more than mine, and you and my brother have never even spoken to each other, let alone have any feelings for each other. Marrying me is your best choice."

Lu Lingxi couldn't help but admire in his heart: he said what he wanted to say and didn't say anything else. This person really understood the art of speaking. Not to mention the matter of status, his expression skills of praising one and criticizing another were also quite advanced.

But Lu Lingxi also understood that it was impossible to talk to him about these things, so he could only show him his language skills: "Before, I couldn't figure out why every time I saw you, Your Highness, I couldn't help but secretly look at you, and always felt like getting close to you. Seeing Your Highness getting close to other women always made me feel sour. Now I finally understand that even if I forget Your Highness, I can't forget my feelings for you. I was so resistant to the marriage with the prince before, and I was willing to die to show my determination. I guess it was all for you."

Lu Lingxi almost felt sick after hearing what he said, but Nan Jingye enjoyed it very much.

Lu Lingxi changed the subject: "But you can see that even if I die to prove my will, it won't change the situation. What can I do now that the wedding is approaching? I'm just a weak woman, I can't change anything, I can only accept my fate."

Nan Jingye smiled mysteriously, "As long as Lingxi is willing, today is a perfect opportunity!"
