I was flattered after crossing

"Wow! Ten rings! Xiao Cui, you can still be so accurate after drinking so much! It's amazing!" Lei Lei shouted in surprise.

I staggered towards the door, my eyes blurred and my steps staggering. I squinted my eyes, staring at the paper with a shooting target on the door frame, and watched carefully as a leaf passed through the paper and embedded deeply into the door panel...

"Okay, okay! It's done! Xiao Cui's adventure was a success!" Leilei shouted excitedly.

Then, we all applauded and cheered for Xiao Cui's outstanding performance. After the applause, I turned back to my seat and sat down.

At this time, Xiao Zhengxuan reached out his hand, gently supported me, and asked with concern: "How do you feel? Do you want to rest first?"

I shook my head and mumbled, "I'm fine, just a little dizzy."

"Okay, it's already midnight, and everyone is tired, so let's rest early!" Xiao Zhengxuan said gently.

Hearing his words, I sighed in disappointment: "Ah~ It's over so early! I haven't had enough fun yet, and it's not your turn yet?" I looked at him with regret.

Xiao Zhengxuan smiled slightly and said softly: "It's my turn just now, isn't it? Princess, have you forgotten that you guys still have to go to your house to do some work tomorrow? Go to bed early today, otherwise you won't have the energy tomorrow." There was a hint of pampering and helplessness in his tone.

"Oh oh oh oh! Yes, yes, yes, I forgot, I have to go to bed early. Okay, okay, you guys go, we'll take a shower and go to bed!" I said as I pushed Xiao Zhengxuan out the door.

Seventeen also stood up and said shakily, "Hey, Your Majesty, please walk slowly. You are starting to stagger when you walk. Let me support you."

Xiao Zhengxuan was speechless when he saw Seventeen's silly look, but he still reached out and grabbed Seventeen.

Then he turned to me and said, "Sleep a little longer before going out tomorrow. The carriage is ready. I will come to visit you after I leave the court."

"Yes~ Okay, Prince Brother~ Prince Brother, take care~" I stood on the steps, hugged the pillar tightly, and responded in a tender voice.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Lei and Xiang'er behind him shouted in unison: "Yes~ Okay, Prince brother~ Prince brother, take care~" "Hahahahahahaha~" Xiao Zhengxuan and Shiqi were sent out of the yard by the laughter filling the yard.

"Master, you drank a lot today!" Seventeen followed Xiao Zhengxuan and said as he walked.

"Well, it's indeed a lot. If I didn't rush to drink it, you don't know what you would be like now..." Xiao Zhengxuan shook his head with a hint of emotion in his tone.

"That's right. Look at you, you can't even walk straight. This is the first time I see you like this! Hahaha~" Seventeen walked crookedly with drunkenness on his face.

Xiao Zhengxuan put his hands behind his back and walked forward slowly. He turned his head and said, "Is it possible that you drank too much and that's why you can't walk straight?"

Seventeen waved his hand and answered firmly, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Just watch me, I will make a straight line for you."

Xiao Zhengxuan looked at Shiqi, who was sticking out his butt, hunching his back, and walking in a straight line with a serious face, and he couldn't help but laugh helplessly behind him.

"Seventeen..." Xiao Zhengxuan called him from behind.

When Seventeen heard the voice, he stood up straight and turned around to ask, "What's wrong, Master?"

"You just...you just said that you and your sweetheart just held hands, is that true?" Xiao Zhengxuan asked this question hesitantly, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"Oh! Of course! We acted out of emotion and stopped within the bounds of propriety. We definitely didn't cross the line even a single step!" Seventeen immediately stood up straight and said solemnly.

"Hey, I knew it was useless to ask you, let's go..." Xiao Zhengxuan waved his hands helplessly.

"Oh!" Seventeen turned around again and walked in a straight line obediently.

Xiao Zhengxuan just lay in bed, thinking about what happened today, and felt that everything was wonderful. Just as he closed his eyes and prepared to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a "sizzle" sound from the door, and someone pushed it open!

Then there was the sound of the door closing. In the quiet night, the sound seemed particularly abrupt.

"Ouch, hiss~ I'm so hit... Why is it so dark... Xiao Zhengxuan~ Xiao Zhengxuan~ Are you asleep!" I rubbed my hit leg and called Xiao Zhengxuan in a low voice. At the same time, I couldn't help but hugged the bag in my arms tightly.

Xiao Zhengxuan: ...

"Are you asleep? I forgot to give you something just now. I'll bring it to you." I walked towards the bed cautiously.

My eyes gradually adapted to the darkness and I could roughly see the positions of the surrounding objects. I staggered to the bed and gently opened the bed curtains. "Hmm~ Just as I guessed, you've fallen asleep."

I slowly sat down beside the couch, carefully looking at the sleeping Xiao Zhengxuan. With the help of the faint moonlight coming in from the window, I could clearly see his handsome and charming face. I couldn't help but exclaimed, "Oh my God! How can you be so handsome! Come, let me kiss you again!"

Just as I leaned over and prepared to kiss him, I suddenly realized that this was not appropriate: "No, no, you are still asleep, I can't take advantage of you. We should uphold the principle of friendly negotiation..."

Xiao Zhengxuan: ...

I went on to say, "I brought the purse specially for you, and there's also a new piece of clothing prepared specifically for Seventeen. Remember to tell him to wear it on our wedding day. Don't always wear black clothes, making yourself look like the little black villain in Conan..." As I said that, I threw the bag at the foot of the bed and began to untie my outer robe.

Xiao Zhengxuan had closed his eyes and listened to Xiao Xiaoxu's whispers, but when he heard the rustling sound of clothes rubbing against each other, he suddenly opened his eyes, sat up abruptly and asked, "What... is the princess going to do?"

"Of course I'm going to sleep..." Before I could finish my words, my outer robe had been taken off, and then I crawled into the bed and said, "Move out a little, leave some room for me!"

"I'm afraid this isn't appropriate..." Xiao Zhengxuan said hesitantly.

"Don't worry, I just took a shower, I'm not dirty..." I explained as I crawled in.

"Is the princess drunk now?" Xiao Zhengxuan asked cautiously.

"Hey, you're right! I can really sing 'The New Drunken Concubine'! You finally asked the right person." I sat cross-legged on the bed, cleared my throat, and prepared to sing: "Love and hate are just a moment ~ Raise a glass to the moon and love is as vast as the sky ~ Love and hate are both vast ~ Ask you... Woo woo woo!"

"It's late at night!" Xiao Zhengxuan quickly reached out and covered my mouth, while whispering in my ear.

"Oh, okay, let's go to bed!" I responded and continued to undress.

Xiao Zhengxuan suddenly grabbed my collar, apparently not wanting me to continue.

I looked at him blankly and muttered, "It's so hot! Don't you feel hot wearing so many clothes?" As I said that, I reached out and was about to undress him.

"Huh?" However, at this moment, I felt dizzy and when I came to my senses, I found myself lying on the bed, unable to move.

“Why are you pressing me… It’s so hot…” I twisted my body, trying to break free.

"I told you a long time ago that you can't eat too much venison..." Xiao Zhengxuan said helplessly.

Xiao Xiaoxu closed his eyes and smiled: "Venison...Venison is really...delicious..."

Xiao Zhengxuan took a breath and said with a sense of relief: "Finally fell asleep... You are simply sent by God to torture me..."

next morning

In the early morning, the sunlight shines through the window into the room and onto the person on the bed.

After Xiao Zhengxuan dressed neatly, he whispered to the maids waiting outside the door: "I am going to court, remember not to wake up the princess. When you go to the princess's house, you must be extra careful and alert."

"Yes, we obey your command!" Xiao Cui and Jinxiu answered in unison.

half an hour later

"Ah~ I'm so thirsty~" I stretched my body, then quickly sat up and prepared to find some water to drink. At this time, Xiao Cui and Jin Xiu, who heard the noise, walked into the room together.

"Princess, please get up. Let us help you wash up." They both said in unison.

I rubbed my still dizzy head and asked, "What time is it now?"

Jinxiu glanced out the window and replied, "Princess, it is already Si hour."

When I heard this, I immediately came to my senses: "What! It's already 9 o'clock? Why didn't you wake me up? We still have to go to make fortune today!"

"The prince has ordered that you cannot be disturbed from sleeping, Princess~" Jinxiu hurriedly explained.

I looked around to confirm that I was not dreaming, but that I really came to Xiao Zhengxuan's place last night.

"Okay, then we'll go and make some fortune in a bit. Please call Miss Ling'er." I said to them while rinsing my mouth.

"Someone has already been sent. Wait for Miss Ling'er and the others to pack up and meet up with us~" Xiao Cui said beside me.

【Court】

The emperor had not yet arrived, and the ministers who had been waiting downstairs began to chat.

"Eh? Prince Rui came so early today!" said Lord Zhang.

"Yes, yes, the prince looks particularly rosy today!" Lord Yu echoed.

Someone else said, "That's right. You look tired and exhausted every day. You should take good care of yourself at such a young age. You are young and promising and have been fighting on the battlefield for many years. You must rest well after you come back!"

Xiao Zhengxuan rarely smiled: "Thank you all for your concern. I will take good care of myself."

At this moment, Xiao Zhengchen stepped into the hall and saw Xiao Zhengxuan surrounded by ministers.

He also came over and said, "Hey! Brother, your purse!"

As he spoke, Xiao Zhengchen stretched out his right hand to touch him, but Xiao Zhengxuan raised his hand and slapped it away.

"What are you doing! You can't even let me see it! I know this was embroidered by my sister-in-law herself, so just let me take a look!" Xiao Zhengchen looked at his brother with a face full of grievance.

"Then take a look at it. Be careful not to get it dirty. This is something your sister-in-law embroidered with great difficulty." Xiao Zhengxuan's face was full of reluctance. He reluctantly took off the purse from his waist and handed it to Xiao Zhengchen.

"Yes, yes, yes! Chen'er will definitely pay attention to it!" Xiao Zhengchen took the purse happily, held it in his palm carefully and looked at it carefully.

"Wow, the embroidery skills are so exquisite. The Qilin is so lifelike, and the tassel below is also unique!" Xiao Zhengchen admired it while gently stroking the purse in his hand.

"Well, I heard from the princess that this is called seed embroidery. I don't know the details, but she said that this needlework is very rare. And the tassels are also unique. It's a pity that a rough guy like me can't understand the minds of these girls." Xiao Zhengxuan's face was filled with pride and satisfaction.

"Oh, the princess is so clever and deft. Even an old man like me has never seen such exquisite embroidery!" Lord Yu couldn't help but sigh.

Lord Zhang also echoed: "Hey, when can I receive the purse embroidered by my wife for me? No matter whether it is seed embroidery or any other embroidery method, I dare not have too many extravagant hopes. As long as she can embroider one for me, I will be satisfied~"

When Xiao Zhengchen saw the three words "Brother Xuan" embroidered on the back of the purse, his face instantly became extremely aggrieved. A feeling of aggrieved surged from the bottom of his heart, making him unable to control his emotions.

He was about to cry and said aggrievedly, "Hmph! I don't want to go to court today! If the emperor comes to ask, tell him that I'm not feeling well! I'm leaving first." After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, Chen'er!" Seeing this, Xiao Zhengxuan hurriedly called out to his younger brother.

Xiao Zhengchen stopped, turned around, pouted, and looked at his brother with dissatisfaction.

"What are you doing!" Xiao Zhengchen asked unhappily.

"Tomorrow..." Xiao Zhengxuan just opened his mouth, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiao Zhengchen.

"I will definitely go to your wedding day with sister-in-law! I just..." Xiao Zhengchen said as he gently squeezed the purse in his hand, then turned his head abruptly and left quickly, leaving Xiao Zhengxuan with a helpless look on his face.

"Oh, I guess the Second Prince would also like to get a purse that has been carefully crafted~" an adult said with a smile.

"Yes, yes! Who doesn't want it?" another adult echoed.

"Hahahaha, yes, the prince is blessed!" The adults around laughed and agreed.

Looking at this scene in front of him, Xiao Zhengxuan thought to himself: Coming to court earlier today was indeed the right choice. This plan is really perfect...

However, at the same time, by the lake in the back garden, Xiao Zhengchen was sitting alone.

The eunuch beside him saw this and immediately ran forward and asked with concern: "Hey, Second Prince, what happened? Did the emperor scold you?"

Xiao Zhengchen lowered his head, feeling very depressed. He silently picked up the purse Lei Lei gave him and muttered to himself: "When will I meet a woman who truly loves me?" His eyes were filled with endless sadness and loneliness.
