After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

When the news reached the princess's mansion, Zhao Ying was shocked. Could it be that Shangguan Shu really mentioned it to his father?

She is so brave...she doesn't even dare.

A hint of sadness flashed across Zhao Ying's eyes. The result was that Shangguan Shu was rejected by his father, and his father was very angry.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ying felt mixed emotions. She knew that her father loved her, but no matter how much he loved her, he would not make her the crown prince.

Just like many years ago, her favor was far greater than that of her brother Zhao Cong, but her father still handed over the country to him.

It has nothing to do with anything else, just because he is a man.

Her mother once comforted her and said, don't take it to heart, because it is your family that really has the heir to the throne.

The implication was that the Queen Mother also agreed that the throne must be passed on to a man.

At this point, she is no longer a young girl, but a mature woman. She will no longer be angry or complain, but she will always feel a little lost in her heart.

She thought that even if all the princes died, her father would adopt someone from the royal family and would not consider her.

This is the sadness of being a woman.

How is she worse than her brothers?

When she was young, her father joked that he wanted to make her the crown prince, and she believed it. However, this statement had a premise. If she was the prince...

It was not possible in the past, but now there is Zhao Xi...

Zhao Ying asked someone to bring some wine and started drinking alone under the moon.

Nanny Li was serving beside them. Seeing this, she advised with concern, "Your Highness, don't drink anymore. You will have a headache tomorrow morning."

Zhao Ying half-leaned on the stone table, raised the wine glass, and stared at it for a long time with a dazed look, and said incoherently, "This Peach Blossom Wine is delicious. I want to send some to my mother. She must like it..."

"Okay, okay, I will send someone to deliver it to Your Majesty tomorrow..."

"No, tomorrow is too late. I have to send it today. If you don't go, I will go by myself..." As he said that, Zhao Ying stood up, staggering, and it was obvious that he was very drunk.

Nanny Li quickly helped him up and said, "How can you go when you are so drunk? Besides, the palace gates are locked. Listen to me, Your Highness, go back and rest first. It won't be too late to send you off tomorrow."

"I'm going!" Zhao Ying held the wine pot and walked towards the inner courtyard stubbornly. Li Ma said helplessly, "Your Highness, this is the entrance..."

After saying that, she slapped her mouth. Why did she remind me of this?

Nanny Li immediately called the maids and asked them to coax the princess back together. However, Zhao Ying was drunk and very strong. He raised his arms and threw several maids to the ground.

Nanny Li almost fell. She stood up, gritted her teeth, stretched her arms, and was about to go over and hug Zhao Ying and carry her back to the house when a figure flashed before her eyes.

Looking again, is it Prince Shangguan?

Nanny Li immediately became furious. What did Prince Shangguan think their princess's mansion was? He just climbed over the wall and came in so brazenly. How could he do that?

However, she didn't dare to question him directly.

Shangguan Shu hugged Zhao Ying and glanced at her lightly. Then Nanny Li became obedient and bowed properly with the other maids.

"I'll take care of the princess here, you guys go down first!"

Nanny Li glanced at the dazed Zhao Ying, then retreated on the surface, but secretly hid not far away and watched. Humph, you divorced scoundrel, don't even think of taking advantage of her princess!

After everyone left, Shangguan Shu looked at the drunken woman in his arms.

She had never been this drunk since he had known her.

Her whole body was soft and smelled of wine, her jade-like face was slightly red, she looked delicate and cute, and there were wine stains on her lips, like dew dripping on petals, moist and seductive. Shangguan Shu's eyes gradually dimmed, and the blood in his body coagulated in one place. His Adam's apple rolled and his arms tightened unconsciously.

Zhao Ying vaguely felt that a huge python suddenly flew down from the sky and wrapped her tightly, making it difficult for her to breathe. She wanted to raise her eyes to look, but she couldn't open them.

Zhao Ying was anxious and cursed, "Where did you come from, big snake spirit? Hurry up and let me go, or I will make you into snake soup!"

She received a chuckle in response.

Huh...the giant snake demon dared to laugh at her!

Zhao Ying gritted her teeth, grabbed the snake's thick tail with both hands, and dug into it hard with her fingertips.

Shangguan Shu hissed in pain. Zhao Ying thought the snake was spitting its tongue at her. She shuddered with fear and then sobbed twice, begging for mercy, "Don't eat me, I'm not delicious..."

Shangguan Shu smiled helplessly, afraid of scaring her, and reminded her in a low voice, "Ying'er, it's me, your Runlang..."

Runlang?

Zhao Ying barely opened her eyes a little and saw the handsome man in front of her looking at her with pity. Zhao Ying paused for a while and said in a complicated tone, "Shangguan Shu, you are not a human being, you are a beast..."

Shangguan Shu: ...

Shangguan Shu picked up Zhao Ying, walked to the stone table, sat down, held Zhao Ying on his lap, and put one hand around her slender waist. Zhao Ying leaned lazily on his shoulder, about to cry, "Shangguan Shu, if you are a big snake spirit, the children will not be snake spirits too, right?"

Shangguan Shu rubbed his brows with his free hand and laughed.

If you say she is not drunk, she is talking nonsense. If you say she is drunk, there is some logic in her nonsense.

Shangguan Shu said softly, "Open your eyes."

Zhao Ying's crow-like long eyelashes trembled slightly, and when she was about to spread her wings and fly, she stopped. She frowned and stared at Shangguan Shu with resentment. Shangguan Shu smiled and gestured to her with his hands, "A snake's waist is like this)-(, Yue'er's waist is like this (.), how could Yue'er be a little snake?"

Zhao Ying vaguely felt that Shangguan Shu was mocking her daughter, but her mind was groggy and she couldn't tell what was wrong. She said angrily, "Even if Yue'er is not, you are... I know your mother has such a pointy chin and loves to eat roasted field mice... She is really a big female snake!!!"

Shangguan Shu was stunned. Yes, he had traced back to the root cause.

Then, Zhao Ying said bitterly, "She also said that my Yue'er is a monster. She is the monster!"

Shangguan Shu poured a glass of wine and coaxed, "Yes, yes, yes, my mother and I are both snake demons, but we didn't do it on purpose. We were cursed. Here is the antidote." Shangguan Shu put the glass to Zhao Ying's lips and coaxed, "As long as you drink it, I will become a human."

Zhao Ying frowned when she heard this, her eyes blurred, "Really?"

Shangguan Shu smiled kindly, "Of course it's true."

Zhao Ying lowered her head slightly, her rosy lips slightly opened, and then she took small sips of the wine. Shangguan Shu looked down at her, his heart growing tighter, hotter, and more swollen, until... the glass was empty.

Shangguan Shu put down his wine glass, lightly lifted Zhao Ying's chin with his fingertips, and lowered his head to kiss her.

The strong aroma of wine mixed with the soft sweet fragrance from the woman's mouth shattered all the man's rationality. He attacked and invaded her mercilessly, trying to swallow every inch of her.

Suddenly, a broken moan came to his ears, and the string in Shangguan Shu's mind completely broke. He laid her flat in his arms, ignoring her weak and helpless struggle, and used extremely powerful strength to hold her tightly and invade her.

Zhao Ying supported herself with both hands in front of her, whimpering in fear. Woohoo, she was going to be eaten by the snake spirit...

After an unknown amount of time, Shangguan Shu stared at Zhao Ying's swollen lips and left reluctantly.

The big hand touched her little face and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

He curved his eyebrows, looked at her with a smile on his lips, and said gently and dotingly, "Okay, my curse is lifted."

Hearing his words, Zhao Ying was stunned for a moment, her aggrieved and resentful brows gently relaxed, suddenly becoming as bright as stars, and then she smiled with relief.

Shangguan Shu's eyes trembled and his body suddenly stiffened. After a while, he closed his eyes with a complicated and painful expression.

Ahhhhhhhhhh! ! ! ! !

Why didn’t he realize earlier that Zhao Ying was so well behaved when drunk! So easy to deceive!!!

What has he missed!!!!
