The cruel little princess

Upon entering the bathroom, Shen Youyou was startled by the sight before her. She had originally thought it would be like the Shen residence, a simple soak in a large tub, relaxing her body and mind. However, she was surprised to find a specially dug small pool surrounded by pure white jade.

Shen Youyou still had some questions in her mind: Why didn't she see the hot spring pool when she took a bath on her wedding night? What was going on? She looked at everything in front of her curiously.

Hot steam curled up, filling the air with a faint smell of sulfur. Nearby stood a black and white red-crowned crane, carved from jade. It soared high, its beak continuously spraying strings of crystal-clear water droplets, as if singing joyfully. These droplets fell like strings of pearls, splashing and creating a clear, melodious sound. The entire scene was like a fairyland, enchanting.

Shen Youyou cautiously approached the pool, reached out to test the water temperature, and felt it was just right, warm and comfortable.

The pool is about three meters wide and five meters long, deeply embedded in the ground. There are diversion holes on the other side of the pool, which can keep the water level at 90% full without overflowing.

"Miss, this is the prince's special order! Just a few days after you set out for Tongniu County, the prince sent someone to tell the housekeeper that he wanted to build a hot spring pool for you. So the housekeeper brought hot spring water from the farm outside the capital and brought it directly to our palace!" Chun Tao saw that her young lady was confused, so she hurriedly explained with a smile.

Shen Youyou suddenly realized, "So that's it!" Now that she remembered, it seemed to be true. At that time, they were on their way to Tongniu County. It was late at night, and they couldn't continue on their journey. They passed by a small inn on the way and decided to rest there.

She was about to take a bath, but His Royal Highness Prince Jin couldn't help himself and jumped into the bathtub and touched her all over.

After making love, she was tormented to death. When she could no longer bear it, she casually said, "It would be great if I could soak in a hot spring pool..." It was probably these words that made him take it to heart, so he sent a letter to the palace steward, asking him to build a hot spring pool.

Shen Youyou was deeply moved. His Royal Highness Prince Jin was truly attentive and considerate. She stretched out her delicate, white hand and gently stirred the hot spring water. A thick layer of rose petals floated on the surface, obscuring the ripples.

When she parted the rose petals, she saw that not only the edge of the pool, but the entire pool was paved with warm jade. It was warm to the touch, truly magnificent!

Shen Youyou looked around. In addition to the beautiful red-crowned crane fountain, there were some exquisite decorations around the pool, such as beautifully carved rockery and neatly arranged flowers. These details showed the owner's care and taste.

Shen Youyou silently chanted "Bourgeois arrogance!" as she gently shed her clothes and stepped into the pool. Suddenly, she felt a warm current envelop her body, as if all her fatigue and worries had been dispelled.

She walked down the steps to the pool and found that the hot spring water was about one meter deep. In the middle of the side, there was a platform made of warm jade, where people could sit directly and soak in the hot spring quietly! She closed her eyes and enjoyed the tranquility and relaxation alone!

She stretched out her arms, enjoying this rare moment of leisure! In a couple of days, when the Qinglong Kingdom and the White Dragon Kingdom envoys arrived in the capital, it would be a bustling scene...

Thinking about something, she couldn't help but doze off in such a comfortable and relaxing environment because of the tiredness from the journey.

After His Royal Highness Prince Jin returned home from the palace with the imperial edict and rewards, the first thing he did was to ask his beloved little princess for rewards!

This time, he'd actually asked for a huge favor on his father-in-law's behalf! He wondered how his little princess would reward him?! Would she... let him experience that wonderful feeling again?! After all, no man could resist that kind of exploding joy!

Thinking of this, he felt more and more tense, and couldn't wait to see his little princess!

After returning to the backyard, he learned that the princess was bathing. His heart tightened, and some inappropriate scenes suddenly emerged in his mind! Because these scenes were so beautiful, it was difficult to describe them in words.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin hurriedly strode into the hall and headed towards the bathroom inside.

After entering the bathroom, he found Chuntao standing there serving him, while his dear little princess was soaking in the comfortable hot spring water.

"Ahem..." His Royal Highness Prince Jin lowered his voice deliberately, fearing to disturb the woman in the hot spring. He said softly, "Chun Tao, please go down. I will take care of the princess here."

Chun Tao was concentrating on adding floral dew to the hot spring. These dews were all made by the young lady herself, and each bottle exuded a charming fragrance. She gently opened the bottle stopper, and the fresh and elegant scent instantly spread, intoxicating her.

Suddenly hearing the prince's voice, Chuntao turned around with a look of surprise on her face. She quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "This servant greets the prince!"

His Royal Highness Prince Jin nodded slightly in response. His gaze remained fixed on the woman in the hot spring, a faint smile playing on his lips. He continued, "Well! Go down and rest! No one will be required to serve you until breakfast tomorrow." His voice seemed to reveal a hint of excitement and anticipation that was hard to conceal.

Chuntao muttered to herself, unable to resist glancing up at the sky outside. The sun was shining brightly, and it was midday, with still some time until dinner. However, since the prince had spoken, as a servant, she could only obey. She knew her young lady's character well and was confident she would not suffer any loss.

"I'll take my leave!" Chuntao bowed respectfully and quietly left. She understood that some things didn't require further questioning; simply obeying orders was enough. And in this quiet afternoon, everything seemed particularly beautiful.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin quickly took off his court robes, casually hung them on the hanger, and walked lightly into the hot spring pool wearing only his underwear.

He called out gently, "Youyou!" as if he was afraid of disturbing the sweet girl who was sleeping lightly.

"Hmm?" Shen Youyou woke up immediately after hearing the noise. However, she was still a little confused and dazed.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin looked at her big, wet eyes, which were as cute as a little deer, and reached out without hesitation to pick her up.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin sat on the platform in the hot spring, and Shen Youyou was held by him and sat on his knees. She was afraid of slipping, so she put her hands on his shoulders.

"Youyou..." His Royal Highness Prince Jin murmured softly, holding her and slowly moving her closer to him...

Shen Youyou's cheeks flushed with shyness, like a ripe apple, making people want to take a bite and taste her fragrance!

His Royal Highness Prince Jin gently guided her to accept herself and took her to climb one peak after another!

Soon, as the two of them moved, ripples appeared on the water...

The eternal emotional exchange begins here, and the distance between the two people becomes closer as they sway...

The cranes standing nearby kept spraying warm spring water, like a gentle rain silently nourishing the dry land.

By the time the two of them finally stopped fighting, it was already sunset. As night fell, His Royal Highness Prince Jin gently picked up his little princess, wiped her clean from head to toe, and wrapped her in the warm robe he had prepared.

During this time, Shen Youyou was extremely tired and didn't even have the strength to lift her little finger.

As expected, this strenuous work is not easy to do! ...

His Royal Highness Prince Jin casually put on a long outer robe, carried the little princess back to the bed, and carefully took a cotton towel to help her dry her hair before he hugged her and fell asleep.

At the moment he fell asleep, His Royal Highness Prince Jin was still thinking that he had forgotten to tell his little princess the good news... so that she could be happy and know that he was also worried about his father-in-law!

But it's okay, at worst we can talk about it tomorrow, and I can even take this opportunity to ask for some more compensation! …

That being said, this hot spring pool is really useful! It's a great place to soak and have fun! He learned a lot of new things in it! He's learned a lot! I'll give the butler a reward tomorrow. Well done!

His Royal Highness Prince Jin fell asleep while thinking about all sorts of things...

Shen Youyou was also extremely tired, falling asleep the moment she touched the bed. The two of them slept in each other's arms, as gentle and affectionate as mandarin ducks embracing each other. Little did they know what kind of test they would face next?!
