Ancient women awaken: loving yourself is the way to go

"Then could the emperor please leave Wuti and Yueluo here? I have something to ask them." Xinghuo said.

Mo Hongyun didn't think too much about it, and nodded in agreement, then took Mantian in disguise to the Disguise Pavilion.

Shen Xingxi is discussing with Madam Zhao about rescuing the former crown prince.

Previously, Mo Hongyun wanted to deal with the former crown prince and the late emperor together. The main reason why Shen Xingxi entered the palace under the identity of Mr. Shen was to rescue Madam Zhao.

Comforting Mo Hongyun was just a side job.

Because Mo Hongyun knew about the existence of the Queen, he wanted to contain the Chen family's followers behind the Queen, so he simply imprisoned the former prince.

But it also means that Shen Xingxi cannot trust the Chen family's people.

Madam Zhao must be concerned about the former crown prince and cannot fully serve Shen Xingxi.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhao couldn't bear to see her son being imprisoned, so she asked Shen Xingxi for help.

Shen Xingxi thought about it and proposed a condition: "If Madam Zhao can get a good ranking in the examination next February and gain a foothold in the court in three months, I will help you save people."

"I promised you before that I would take the imperial examination. I will do my best!" Mrs. Zhao made the promise, which also meant agreeing to Shen Xingxi's request to save her son next year.

only……

She asked worriedly, "But if you save my son, won't the emperor be afraid of you?"

Shen Xingxi smiled and said, "Guess why I want the Chen family's power? Madam Zhao, you will feel at ease only when you hold your destiny in your own hands.

The best thing about the current emperor is that he won't kill innocent people. If I lose, I won't implicate you, but I won't be able to help you in the court. You have to face it all on your own.

Of course, I will also prepare a way out for you. It won’t be much, just a human skin mask and lots of money.”

Madam Zhao closed her eyes, feeling disappointed, "Xingxi, I still hope that you can succeed, even if you fail, you can get out of this unscathed.

You are better than me. I never thought of abolishing the system of concubines being buried alive with their husbands. I just wanted to turn a blind eye and let the concubines find someone to die with them. You even dared to hold the fate in your hands. If I had this idea, the prince would not have fallen to this point.

I don't want to see your end. You are younger than me, and you have to die after me."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Zhao, but I can't control my fate, so it's hard for me to be free and easy." Shen Xingxi stood up and said, "I have something else to do later, so I won't delay Madam Zhao's study. I'll take my leave first."

"Well, you'd better think about it carefully. It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death." Mrs. Zhao continued to persuade.

Shen Xingxi waved her hand, "What's the joy of living, and what's the fear of death?"

When Mrs. Zhao saw Shen Xingxi leave, she slumped down in her chair, feeling so upset that she felt like she was about to explode.

Shen Xingxi saved countless people, but they couldn't save her.

How can you be indifferent to life and death without experiencing certain storms?

-

Shen Xingxi arrived at the Disguise Pavilion and changed her clothes before pushing open the door of the room where Mo Hongyun was.

She looked at Mo Hongyun, who was wearing a red dress, and swallowed.

Mo Hongyun has a slender figure with smooth lines. The red dress does not look out of place on him, but instead adds a bit of charm and unrulyness.

The human skin mask was specially made by her. It looks similar to Mo Hongyun, but softer.

He stood by the window, his expression slightly restrained, which formed a sharp contrast with the heroic spirit between his brows. Rather, he looked like a heroic young lady who was shy when seeing her lover.

Looking at the bright red lip balm on him, I had the urge to kiss him.

Mo Hongyun didn't expect that the servant Xinghuo mentioned was not a maid, but a fair-skinned and beautiful guard.

He looks thin, yet masculine.

He watched Xingxi walk towards him step by step with a long sword in hand. She leaned against the window, acting like a proud young lady, raised her chin slightly, and snorted coldly, "You are so arrogant that you made me wait for you."

Shen Xingxi smiled and said, "It's really my fault. I kept the young lady waiting for so long."

She walked up to him, placed her hands on the window sill on either side of his body, raised her eyebrows slightly, and met his eyes with a flirtatious look: "How about punishing me to eat the young lady's lip balm?"

Mo Hongyun's cheeks suddenly turned red. There was a lot of noise behind him. He was pushed against the window, and the person in front of him wanted to do something romantic.

He avoided her eyes, "Isn't this a bad idea?"

"Why are you refusing to swallow your saliva?" Shen Xingxi kissed his Adam's apple, "This is where you're still obedient."

The speed at which his Adam's apple rolled increased significantly, and Mo Hongyun felt more and more nervous.

But under this tension, there was actually a bit more desire.

It was the desire for everyone to witness Xingxi kissing him.

It was like the last time the prince looked for them, the excitement of their kiss behind the screen, and the desire it aroused.

In the end, he was led astray, his bottom line was lowered, and his face became thicker and thicker.

He suddenly chuckled, "My lip balm smells like osmanthus. If you ruin it, you have to compensate me personally."

"The smell of osmanthus?" Shen Xingxi rubbed his lips with the tip of her nose. "Not bad, I like it."

She raised her hand to close the window, but didn't close it tightly.

She kissed his lips with some force, forcing his body to lean back.

Mo Hongyun struggled to maintain his body shape, feeling that his head would knock the window open in the next second, allowing people outside to see the scene inside the house.

My heartbeat was even more violent than before.

My brain gradually went blank from being kissed.

He gradually thought that he didn't need to maintain it and it didn't matter if he saw it.

He wanted to be completely immersed in it, regardless of time, place or occasion.

When I thought that both of them were wearing human skin masks and no one would recognize them anyway, the string in my heart broke completely.

He relaxed his body and responded while allowing Xingxi to attack him.

Seeing that the window was about to be knocked open, Shen Xingxi grabbed his waist and pulled the man back.

She was the first to complain, "Mr. Yun really impressed me. He actually wanted so many people to witness me kissing you."

Mo Hongyun suddenly found the identity of the eldest lady quite interesting, and snorted, "How strong are you! There is no way I can defeat you."

"Indeed, the waist bends when pressed, it's very soft." Shen Xingxi pinched his waist like a gangster, "I really can't let go of it."

Mo Hongyun touched his hot cheeks and glared at Xingxi.

He then realized that Xingxi could always come up with teasing words, whereas before she would at most say "touch my abdominal muscles".

Shen Xingxi smiled to herself. Mo Hongyun would never have thought that with his glaring face under his seductive makeup, his glare looked more like a coquettish look.

It's quite alluring.

"What are you laughing at?" Mo Hongyun's eyes fell on Shen Xingxi's malicious smile.

Shen Xingxi placed the hand holding the long sword behind Mo Hongyun, and held both the sword and the person in his arms, "Of course it's because Miss Xiao is so delicate and weak. Just looking at her makes me want to make her cry."

Mo Hongyun felt a little uncomfortable being teased, and pretended to be calm, "Stop talking nonsense, and give me the lip balm as compensation."

Shen Xingxi rubbed his lower back with the hilt of her sword, "As you command, my lady."

She paused and suddenly asked, "So, Miss, you mean, are you willing for me to make you cry?"
