The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands

Jiang Wumei's temperament changed suddenly in the blink of an eye. Xiao Tong's pupils opened wide and his whole body felt numb. The warmth of the skin between him and his pet burned from his palm all the way to his heart. Xiao Tong could even hear his own violent heartbeat.

The fragrance from Jiang Wumei's body surged across his nose, making his eyes suddenly clear. The branches stained with lust broke through the soil of his heart and instantly grew into a towering tree that covered the sky, swaying wildly at the pull of this fragrance.

The surging emotions made Xiao Tong sober up instantly. It turned out that after spending every day together in desperate situations, he had already regarded Jiang Wumei as his backbone.

Under Jiang Wumei's meticulous care, he stood high and watched himself sink soberly. His silent and frightened heart beat violently for her countless times. Even if the whole world in front of him was gray, she was the most vivid and colorful color in the world.

He was fascinated by her beauty, moved by her intelligence, and all his senses were clamoring for her.

Xiao Tong understood that he was truly in love with Jiang Wumei.

Different from his previous cherishing feelings for Chun Yurong, his feelings for Jiang Wumei were a man's most primitive impulse towards a woman, a deafening match of destiny between two souls in the lonely night.

After confirming his true thoughts, Xiao Tong stared straight at Jiang Wumei, his pair of tiger eyes emitting a bright brilliance and an astonishing aura. Unfortunately, Jiang Wumei's gaze was fixed on the palace gate and she did not notice his abnormality at the moment, otherwise she might have guessed that it was no longer her original pet.

Inside the huge hall, there is a warm atmosphere and lingering fragrance. The screens and jades are luxuriously and exquisitely decorated, all of which demonstrate the nobility of the owner of this hall.

The two beauties followed Qingzhi into the room. When they looked up, they saw Jiang Wumei, who was sitting beside the couch with luxurious makeup on.

Jiang Wumei was dressed in luxurious palace clothes, holding a white tiger cub in her arms. Her face was as beautiful as a lotus, her eyebrows were like crescent moons, and her watery eyes were sparkling and charming, lazy but captivating.

Not to mention, the imposing aura emanating from his every gesture was like the bright moon in the sky, noble and aloof, making Concubine Xie and Concubine Chen, who had just entered the hall, dare not look directly at him and hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects.

"This humble concubine has met the Concubine..."

"Humble concubine, I greet the Concubine."

The beauty has a graceful figure and a voice like an oriole. She is crawling in front of me, like a willow swaying in the wind, so beautiful.

Jiang Wumei raised the corners of her lips slightly, leaned back with a smile, and carefully stroked the fur of the little guy in her arms, deliberately leaving the two of them alone.

These two people were the Queen's subordinates, and to her and Xiao Tong, they were disgusting things.

Although she couldn't attack the old witch Queen directly now, it was still possible for her to beat up the two minions in front of her.

Xiao Tong could see that she was determined to discipline the two of them, so he shook his head and accommodating Jiang Wumei's actions. As Jiang Wumei's fingertips moved and pressed on his back, a happy hum escaped from his throat. He rolled around Jiang Wumei, making her giggle, and he felt as comfortable as if there were only the master and his beloved in the palace.

The two beauties kneeling at the feet listened to the delicate and seductive music above their heads, their souls flew away, half of their bodies went numb, and they looked at each other quietly, and saw shock in each other's eyes.

The two of them have been living in secluded corners since entering the Prince's Mansion. Although they had heard of the name of Concubine Jiang, the favorite concubine, they had never seen her true appearance.

After meeting him today, I finally understood why this person could monopolize the prince's favor.

Compared with her stunning beauty that was unrivaled in the capital, he was like a dim star competing with the moon, feeling ashamed and humiliated.

Thinking of this, the two beauties knelt more upright, not daring to move at all.

Jiang Wumei was having fun playing with the white tiger cub when she seemed to remember that there were two people kneeling on the ground.

Blinking her eyes, Jiang Wumei raised her hand to take the flower tea offered by Qingzhi, lowered her head and took a sip, and said in a delicate voice:

"My two sisters, are you here today to ask me something?"

Her voice was slightly cold and it was hard to tell whether she was happy or angry. The two people on the ground shuddered. The braver Concubine Chen kowtowed and replied:

"My dear Concubine, I heard that Your Highness was ill and had not regained consciousness for a long time, so I came to you to ask for mercy.

I hope that Her Majesty will grant us the permission to serve His Highness in His Highness's bedroom for a few days, so that we can live up to the expectations that Her Majesty had for us when she granted us this position."

The scented tea had a light and elegant aroma. Jiang Wumei listened to Lady Chen's reply and took two sips before placing the jade cup on the table. In order to prevent the white tiger cub from getting burned, she even moved it to her side.

"What does the Queen Mother expect?

Does Miss Xie also think so?"

Pushing away the white tiger cub that was trying to lick the tea with its tongue, Jiang Wumei raised her eyebrows and smiled, frightening Lady Xie so much that she trembled all over and spoke in a confused tone:

"Your Majesty, we are only too worried about Your Highness and that is why we dared to disturb you.

If your Majesty doesn't like it, then I, your humble concubine, will not go."

Jiang Wumei looked coldly at the two people who were trembling like autumn leaves, with a slight frown on her face.

The Queen sent these two insignificant people to be with Xiao Tong. Did she look down on Xiao Tong, or was she too confident in herself?

With a sneer, Jiang Wumei grabbed the disobedient white tiger cub and patted its little butt. Seeing that it froze and didn't move, she slowly spoke:

"Sister, you're joking. Since you're willing to serve His Highness, how can I stop you?

Starting tomorrow, the two sisters will take turns to serve medicine to His Highness's bedside.

I believe that when His Highness regains consciousness and sees the kindness of the two sisters, he will surely be deeply moved and reward them generously."

Jiang Wumei's words sounded awkward. Beauties Xie and Chen didn't understand what she meant, and fear grew in their eyes. However, due to the orders of the palace master, they had no choice but to suppress their palpitations and kneel down to express their gratitude.

"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. I will serve you wholeheartedly."

Looking at the two people's soft faces, Jiang Wumei suddenly lost her patience and waved them away:

"I am tired, my two sisters please leave first.

Qingzhi, see you off."

Qingzhi was polite but not polite to his master's enemies. He stood behind the two and said:

"My master needs to rest for a while. Please leave with me, my two beauties."

The two beauties, Xie and Chen, did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. They hurriedly bowed and stood up, quickly leaving with Qingzhi.

As soon as the disgusting person left, Jiang Wumei collapsed completely, and the fierce aura she had just had disappeared in an instant.

She leaned against the couch, her eyes filled with deep frustration, picked up the white tiger cub, and complained tiredly:

"Xue Tuan'er, why do men marry so many women?

Why can't they be faithful like women?

Are women born to be men's appendages?"

Thinking of her and her best friend in modern times, Jiang Wumei hated this world where men were superior to women even more.

The disappointment in her sparkling eyes was so strong and glaring that Xiao Tong's heart suddenly contracted and he was speechless for a moment.

He couldn't answer the question and didn't know how to answer it.

In his memory, it was common for men to have three wives and four concubines. No matter whether they were ministers in the court or emperors, they were surrounded by countless women in the backyard.

When he first understood the ways of the world, his father had taught him that women were merely embellishments in the vast landscape of the country. A ruler could pick and use them, but he should not indulge in them. Love was the most useless thing in governing a country and would hinder his vigorous progress.

Therefore, even though he had taken great pains to protect Chun Yurong before, he had never thought of being faithful to her.

But now, looking at Jiang Wumei's exhausted and bored look, a corner of Xiao Tong's heart sank, and for the first time he considered the possibility of being alone for a lifetime.
