Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous

Hearing what Zhao Youqing said, Lu Ziyan finally couldn't sit still anymore. He frowned tightly, and his rough voice suddenly rose a little and said angrily:

"Brother Zhao, how can you go back on your word?"

"I never promised you anything, so why would you go back on your word?"

Zhao Youqing completely ignored Lu Ziyan, and just took Ji Zhen's hand in his own, squeezed it gently, and said:

"Don't be angry, I know you don't like him. So, it's just the two of us going to the dark market this time, okay?"

Zhao Youqing spoke very briskly, as if they were discussing where to go for an outing tomorrow, whether to ride a horse or a carriage, so simple and pleasant.

Ji Zhen's face darkened. She didn't like Zhao Youqing's look, as if he had foreseen the future. This look of having everything under control made her feel a little uneasy for no reason, as if everything was about to get out of control.

"I don't dislike this person." Ji Zhen frowned.

"So you like him? Then the three of us will go to the dark market together?" Zhao Youqing suggested happily.

Lu Ziyan immediately looked at Ji Zhen, his eyes filled with expectations that he himself didn't even notice, which made Ji Zhen feel very annoyed.

"Nonsense!"

Ji Zhen shook off Zhao Youqing's hand, stretched out his left hand, and with a bang, the window behind him was opened by a strong wind. Then he heard Ji Zhen's deep voice asking in the room:

"Where are the guards?"

In the darkness, Ji Zhen's voice spread until it reached the door of Tingyuxuan.

"Your Highness, I am here."

The six guards in Tingyu Pavilion knelt on one knee and bowed to listen to the order. Then Ji Zhen's voice came again, saying:

"Everyone, retreat to the gate of Tingyuxuan and stand guard. Without my warrant, not even a mosquito is allowed in."

After saying that, Ji Zhen grabbed in the air with his left hand, and all the windows in the house were closed. Only the candlelight in the room was reflected on the faces of the three people.

"Now, there are only three of us in this place."

Ji Zhen was the first to break the silence, looking back and forth between Lu Ziyan and Zhao Youqing, and continued:

"Since Master Lu and I have the same goal this time, why don't we just speak frankly and tell each other the truth, how about that?"

Lu Ziyan was a little nervous. Ji Zhen gave him too much pressure tonight. He didn't know whether he should really exchange cards with her. But if he wanted to go to the dark market, he had to get Zhao Youqing's invitation. And now it was obvious that Zhao Youqing had stood on Ji Zhen's side.

Lu Ziyan cast his gaze towards Zhao Youqing, but Zhao Youqing completely ignored him, pulled Ji Zhen over to sit down at the eight-immortal table, poured her a cup of tea, and said:

"Why are you so angry for no reason? Just don't take him with you."

Lu Ziyan couldn't hold it in any longer, and he immediately said to Ji Zhen:

"Your Highness, please calm down. Brother Zhao and I have known each other for a long time. This time I came to ask Brother Zhao for the way to the dark market, not for myself, but for Her Highness the Crown Princess. Please help me."

Ji Zhen's eyelids twitched suddenly, and her eyes were fixed on Lu Ziyan.

If Lu Ziyan hadn't mentioned Li Yuanzhen, Ji Zhen might have felt better. But when she mentioned Li Yuanzhen, Ji Zhen immediately thought of how she wanted to use her as a knife. She was so angry that she snorted and put the teacup heavily on the table.

"Li Yuanzhen? Humph, what can't she, a princess, handle? Why does she need you, a legitimate prince, to sneak in and knock on the door of the guest official at Princess Xianyao's mansion in the middle of the night?"

Lu Ziyan was so shocked by Ji Zhen's words that he couldn't say a word. He lost his dignified and solemn demeanor during the day. He could only grit his teeth and bow to Ji Zhen to apologize:

"Please calm down, Your Highness. This is a matter concerning Your Highness the Crown Princess, and Zi Yan cannot speak of it."

"Since you can't tell me, then don't go."

Ji Zhen's patience with Lu Ziyan had dropped to zero. She stood up with a flick of her sleeves, looked coldly at Lu Ziyan's frowning face, and said lightly:

"After all, you also know that I'm going to the dark market, but I don't like it for others to know about this. So you stay here until I finish my business."

"Your Highness wants to put me under house arrest?" Lu Ziyan looked at Ji Zhen in disbelief.

Ji Zhen was amused by the shock in his eyes. She took two steps forward and looked at Lu Ziyan carefully as if she was looking at a new toy. She said:

"Why, do you think that as the legitimate ruler of the princess, I can't discipline you? I can only watch you and do whatever you want?"

Ji Zhen suddenly laughed, tapped her fingers lightly on the table, and whispered to Lu Ziyan:

"Don't forget who you and Li Yuanzhen are attached to now. Everyone knows my sexual womb. Since the princess is willing to let you come, she should have expected the possibility of you being discovered by me, and should have expected this situation. Even so, she wants you to come, which shows how important and urgent this matter is."

Thinking of this, Ji Zhen's frown relaxed slightly, as if he had thought of something. He took a step back, looked Lu Ziyan up and down, and laughed even louder.

"Master Lu, think about it yourself. Is it necessary for you to come here? If it is not necessary for you to come here, why did she take such a big risk to ask you to come here? Have you thought about it?"

Ji Zhen's eyes flashed with a playful light, which made Lu Ziyan stunned. But Zhao Youqing understood, and with a bad look on his face, he pulled Ji Zhen to his side, squeezed her hand, and whispered in dissatisfaction:

"Zhenzhen! You can't do this!"

"What can't I do?"

Ji Zhen couldn't stop laughing when she thought that Li Yuanzhen might have sent Lu Ziyan to find Zhao Youqing just to test her.

Zhao Youqing looked at Ji Zhen laughing more and more unscrupulously, pinched her hard, and said through gritted teeth:

"I'll tie him up now! I'll see if you dare to touch him!"

"Ah? You can tie people up, then you can give it a try. Anyway, it's more convenient to tie people up."

Ji Zhen not only did not stop him, but encouraged him, acting like a cynical playboy, which made Zhao Youqing so angry that he really found a long rope to tie up Lu Ziyan's hands and feet, rolled up his handkerchief to block his mouth, and stuffed him directly under the bed.

The bed in Tingyuxuan dormitory was very low. After Lu Ziyan was stuffed in, his head was on the bed board and his stomach was on the ground. He could not move his whole body. He struggled frantically in shock and anger.

Ji Zhen never expected that within a quarter of an hour since she entered the room, the first change would happen in the room. And the one who tied someone up and stuffed him under the bed was Zhao Youqing.

"Are you crazy?"

Ji Zhen followed Zhao Youqing and stood in front of the bed, listening to Lu Ziyan's violent struggle, speechless.

Is this still the Zhao Youqing who would rather hang on the wall than care about the mundane world?

Zhao Youqing pulled her over and said coldly:

"Okay, it's all taken care of, don't worry about it. Do you want to leave now?"
