As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

Inside the Biyuan study, a bright light was on, and Ning Rushong was looking at the secret letters submitted from all over the place.

The emperor has been consolidating power recently, using sophisticated and ruthless means. It seems that the autocratic emperor has finally returned.

Ning Rushong's soul was trembling with excitement. What was the point of competing for the throne with Prince Rong, a mediocre man? Only by competing with his father, who had regained his former wisdom, could he mobilize all his heart and soul!

"Your Highness, I asked my servants to make a bowl of chicken soup." He Yue smiled and spoke softly.

She brought the chicken soup to the side of the table and said, "If my cooking skills were not so bad, I would definitely make it myself."

If it's fake, she won't bother with him.

Ning Rushong closed the secret letter, looked up and saw He Yue smiling gently and charmingly. Her face was bright and gentle, which were obviously two opposite words, but they were strangely integrated together.

Looking at a beauty under the lamp always carries a hint of tenderness and ambiguity.

The first time he saw her, he knew she was beautiful and out of place in the countryside, but he didn't care at the time. There were so many beautiful women in the world, and beauty to him was like a useless thing that could be picked anywhere.

"Your Highness." She was stared at for a long time, and she pressed her brows shyly, but the corners of her lips were still raised, and her expression was just like a half-hung peony.

Ning Rushong's hand holding the secret letter paused, and the thing in his chest suddenly became uncontrollable and noisy. He was very uncomfortable with it.

Why don't you obey my orders?

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, picked up the chicken soup and took a sip. It was fresh and not greasy. He Yue really couldn't make it that way. The dishes she made always had a fishy smell as long as they contained meat.

"Thank you for your help, Princess." He put down the bowl, his tone casual and indifferent.

Seeing his cold attitude, He Yue didn't feel anything in her heart. She didn't even want to deliver it to him. She closed the vegetable box of chicken soup in her hand and carried it.

She felt that she had done her best to put on a good show, and was about to bow and leave when Ning Rushong stopped her.

"Yueyue, please sit down and keep me company for a while. I'm almost done with the paperwork in my hands."

He Yue cursed in her heart, she was the Crown Princess before, and now it’s Yueyue. You are the Crown Prince, as long as you are happy!

"Then I'll read a book on the side for a while." He Yue sat on the low couch by the window.

She picked up a book about gods and ghosts that she had read before and began to read it slowly.

Most of the stories in the book are about love between humans and gods, and love between ghosts and humans. The main theme is a rebellious character who is not tolerated by the world. It is very exciting and she likes it very much.

Ning Rushong saw that her delicate eyebrows were relaxed, obviously she was absorbed in reading. He lowered his eyes and opened another folded book.

Even though she was just sitting there, he felt comfortable. Perhaps he liked her even more.

But it doesn’t matter. After all, she is in the East Palace and she is his wife.

By the time Ning Rushong finished dealing with the government affairs at hand, it was already Chou time.

The night is dark and quiet.

He Yue had a good nap during the afternoon, so she was still reading a book with full energy.

"Go back to the bedroom, it's time to rest." Ning Rusong called her with a gentle voice.

He Yue put down the book and rubbed her sore eyes, "Okay, Your Highness."

The two of them returned to the bedroom of Biyuan together. After the palace servants helped them wash up, He Yue took off her luxurious hairpin and let her long hair cascade down.

The bed was made of pearwood and carved with silk strings, with the bed curtains drawn.

Ning Rushong stroked He Yue's black hair. She snuggled in his arms, surrounded by the pleasant and refreshing woody scent.

His hand moved down and held her slender waist. He Yue's voice was gentle, "My waist still hurts."

The implication is to go to bed quickly and stop doing any messy things!

Ning Rusong smiled, elegant and comfortable, "Go to sleep, I won't bother you today."

The palace maid turned off the lights, and He Yue gradually closed her eyes. She seemed to hear Ning Rushong's questioning voice.

"I'll take you horseback riding tomorrow. The Western Regions have sent in a batch of fine horses as tribute."

"Okay." He Yue replied dazedly.

After a while, the sound of shallow breathing reached Ning Rushong's ears.

Ning Rushong hugged her tighter and closed his eyes.

…………

The next morning, Ning Rushong actually took He Yue to the horse farm.

The young eunuch who served the horses skillfully brought a short brown horse.

The young eunuch smiled flatteringly and kept talking, "This horse is the most docile, it is perfect for you, Crown Princess."

The little brown horse nudged He Yue's hand in a human-like manner. He Yue placed her hand on its head and rubbed it with joy.

Her smile was bright and beautiful, just like the beauty of spring in March.

She turned around and looked at Ning Rushong, "I want to ride this one."

The prince was dressed in a black outfit, which made him look tall and majestic. He said, "Then let's give it a try."

The young eunuch was still boasting, "This horse is the most obedient and its appearance is also top-notch."

He Yue had never ridden a horse before, and she stepped into the stirrups with some trepidation.

Ning Rusong placed his hands on her waist to support her.

The little brown horse snorted, and He Yue swayed a little, nervously tightening the reins in his hands.

She bowed her head and called Ning Rusong, "Your Highness."

"Well, don't worry." Ning Rusong took the leash of the little brown horse and said, "I'll take you for a walk."

The prince looked calm and composed, as if he was doing something very normal.

The young eunuch lowered his head and stepped aside.

Leading a horse for someone has always been something done by people of low status, but the Crown Prince was actually willing to lead the horse for the Crown Princess himself, which shows that the rumored favor for her is true!

The little brown horse was walking slowly, and He Yue also felt some interest in it.

After a while, Ning Rushong let go of his hand, and the little brown horse slowly trotted away.

He Yue held the reins tightly in her hands, facing the wind, feeling extremely happy.

The wind in early winter was already a bit cold, but He Yue felt warm in her heart. How to put it, it was a million times better than staying in the Biyuan and embroidering.

For the first time since she entered the Eastern Palace, she smiled sincerely in front of Ning Rushong, her eyes bright as if filled with the cleanest snow mountain water.

The little brown horse trotted half a circle and then circled back to Ning Rushong.

"Your Highness, I still want to ride. Can you come more often in the future?" He Yue sat on the horse, lowered her eyes and looked at him, her eyes full of hope.

She really wanted to come here more often in the future. After riding around for a while, she felt her body relaxed a lot.

Ning Rusong's eyes stayed on her slightly red cheeks, and then he nodded, "This horse will belong to you from now on. When you want to come, just bring a few palace maids with you."

He originally wanted her to go out and walk around more often; it wasn't good for her to stay stuck in Biyuan all the time.

He Yue's eyebrows curved, and her voice was clear, "I thank Your Highness."

At this time, Guard Zhang came running over from a distance, bowed and reported, "Your Highness, the Prince of Nan has returned to Shoucheng and wants to see you."

He Yue said tactfully, "Your Highness, please go. I will ride a few laps and then return to Biyuan."

"Xiao Guanzi, stay and look after the Crown Princess."

Ning Rushong left Xiao Guanzi behind before she felt at ease. This time when she left Biyuan, she did not bring any palace maids with her.
