Chapter 26 The Prince's Invitation
Time flew by like a fleeting horse, and days passed without a trace of the pigeon that had carried Tang Wenshu's heart and hopes. Tang Wenshu couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the Crown Princess had already forgotten him?
Today is still the Chinese studies class that is both agonizing and joyful. After the class is over, it will be the long-awaited monthly break.
When the clear and melodious bell suddenly rang, Tang Wenshu was like a wild horse, happily throwing away the scroll in her hands and dashing out of the school at lightning speed. She rushed all the way home, and as she stepped into the courtyard, she was surprised to find the snow-white pigeon leisurely perched on the window sash, enjoying the delicious meal with relish and carefully preening its soft and bright feathers.
"Wow! So the Crown Princess hasn't forgotten me!" Tang Wenshu's gloom suddenly vanished, the cold reception he'd endured for the past few days vanishing in an instant. He eagerly stepped forward and carefully untied the note tied to the pigeon's leg. Upon closer inspection, he saw two clear, simple characters written in large letters: "Chen Shi. Rui."
Faced with such a brief and ambiguous message, Tang Wenshu could not help but complain: "Alas, it's always just a few words. I really hope you can write a few more words! It makes me always rack my brains to guess the meaning. Doesn't she know that I am a well-known lunatic in the Duke's Mansion? Forget it, don't think too much, let's think about it tomorrow morning." After that, Tang Wenshu gently stroked the pigeon's head, then turned and left, happily beginning to plan the next day's itinerary.
As the first rays of morning sunlight pierced the clouds and shone across the earth, the Crown Prince's magnificent and stately carriage slowly arrived at the gates of the Duke's Mansion. However, Tang Wenshu remained immersed in a sweet dream, completely oblivious to what was unfolding outside. For her, this rare day off was undoubtedly the perfect opportunity to sleep in.
Without hesitation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered the Duke's Mansion and arrived unimpeded in front of Tang Wenshu's courtyard. Meixiang, upon hearing the noise, hurried to open the door. She was slightly startled to see it was the Crown Prince, but she quickly bowed and greeted him. Entering the room, she saw Tang Wenshu fast asleep in bed in an extremely unsightly position, a satisfied smile on his face, clearly dreaming a beautiful dream.
The prince gently accepted the hot tea handed to him by Mo Xiang and flipped through the homework that Pei Qingqing had handed him. She sat gracefully beside the bed, quietly waiting for Tang Wenshu to wake up. After an hour and a half, Tang Wenshu finally awoke slowly. She drowsily opened her eyes and looked at the strange yet familiar scene before her, feeling a moment of bewilderment. When she saw Mei Xiang and the other maids standing beside her, she subconsciously blurted out, "Good morning, Sister Rui..." She suddenly realized that something was wrong and quickly changed her words to, "Brother Rui."
The prince smiled slightly and said softly, "It's getting late now, it's almost noon. Get up quickly, I'll take you to Yuelai Restaurant to try the delicious food there." Hearing this, Tang Wenshu instantly became energetic, turned over and sat up from the bed, and then jumped out of the bed like a nimble little rabbit.
Seeing this, Meixiang and Moxiang immediately stepped forward to help her wash. Tang Wenshu savored this meticulous care, secretly sighing: Since crossing into this world, it has only been a short three months, and I've already slowly grown accustomed to and begun to enjoy the care of others. It truly lives up to the old saying: From frugality comes luxury! It seems that human nature is ultimately unable to resist the temptation of comfort and ease. Even the most resilient can easily become weak in such an environment.
She changed into a pale pink gown, brought by the Crown Prince. Its pleats flowed like the radiance of snow and moonlight, cascading down to the ground. The long train trailed behind her, resembling a forest of blossoming peach trees. Then, she sat at her dressing table, letting Mo Xiang carefully comb her silky hair in front of the bronze mirror, skillfully twisting it into two rings. Then, Mo Xiang pulled a vibrant, flaming crimson hairpin from a box and gently inserted it into her bun. Like the brightest star in the night sky, it instantly illuminated her entire look.
Despite her youth, her attire didn't look at all gaudy; instead, it accentuated her charming beauty and radiant beauty. She gracefully walked to the prince's side, clasping her arm around his strong, muscular arm. A smile as bright as the spring sun lit up her face. "Brother Rui, let's go! Those delicious treats are waiting for us!" With that, the two of them boarded a magnificent carriage. The sound of horse hooves echoed through the streets as they gradually receded...
Soon, the carriage slowly rolled into the bustling streets of the Imperial City. The streets were bustling with traffic and people jostling for position, a truly vibrant spectacle! The Crown Prince and Tang Wenshu descended side by side, leisurely strolling among the throng. Along the way, they were captivated by the dazzling array of shops lining the streets. Some displayed a dazzling array of exquisite clothing; others were filled with dazzling gold and silver jewelry; and even more were food stalls brimming with enticing aromas and shops displaying a wide variety of novel and intriguing toys. Tang Wenshu's heart surged with excitement, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She eagerly grasped the Crown Prince's hand, happily wandering from shop to shop.
However, Tang Wenshu merely gazed at the exquisite ornaments, making no attempt to try them on. She had no interest in cosmetics, powder, or gold and silver jewelry. But when faced with delicious food, her bright eyes would flicker with an irrepressible desire. Every time she encountered a new and unusual treat, she couldn't wait to savor it herself.
So, the prince and Tang Wenshu went from shop to shop, buying a large number of snacks. Whenever he came across a delicious delicacy, Tang Wenshu would buy several without hesitation, happily planning to bring these delicacies back home to share this joy with his mother and two brothers.
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was already twilight, the sun gradually setting in the west. The Crown Prince and Tang Wenshu had just entered an antique-style restaurant. At that moment, only a few guests were leisurely enjoying afternoon tea; no one else was dining. Despite this, they still ordered a few of the restaurant's signature dishes and a pot of fragrant Longjing tea. Then, they sat side by side at a window table, leisurely admiring the picturesque view outside while savoring the delicious food on the table.
"Wenshu, are you happy with today's trip?" the prince asked softly.
"Of course I'm happy, Prince brother!" Tang Wenshu responded in a sweet voice, with a happy smile on her face.
"I am also very happy to see you so happy. As long as you are happy, I will be satisfied." The prince said gently.
After saying this, the two smiled at each other, their eyes revealing endless warmth and tacit understanding. However, the prince thought to himself: Let's just wait and see if the fish takes the bait! As for Shu'er, she didn't need to know too much about the inside story; she just needed to maintain her innocent happiness.
After dinner, the Crown Prince and Tang Wenshu took a short rest before heading to a renowned theater in the city. Upon entering, they were overwhelmed by the ancient atmosphere. The audience was packed, and everyone waited with bated breath for the show to begin.
As melodious music filled the air, the stage blossomed with brilliance. Actors, clad in exquisite costumes, appeared on stage, their every smile, every gesture showcasing their professionalism as they unfolded gripping stories. The prince and Tang Wenshu were enchanted by this visual and auditory feast, and time slipped by unnoticed.
The performance concluded successfully as the sun set and night fell. The Crown Prince personally escorted Tang Wenshu back to the Duke's Mansion. Along the way, the two chatted and laughed, creating a harmonious and warm atmosphere. When the richly decorated carriage slowly stopped in front of the Duke's Mansion, the Crown Prince was the first to gracefully disembark. He carefully reached out and gently grasped Tang Wenshu's hand, as if protecting the most precious treasure in the world. Then, with a slight push, he lifted Tang Wenshu steadily from the carriage.
"Shu'er, I'm so happy to be able to spend such a wonderful time with you today. Thank you for accompanying me all the way." The prince leaned close to Tang Wenshu's ear and whispered softly, "When I have free time, I will definitely come to visit you again."
Hearing this, Tang Wenshu's pretty face instantly flushed with shyness, as charming and lovely as a ripe apple. She lowered her head and replied softly, "Prince, I'm also very happy and grateful for all the goodies you've bought for me." But in her heart, she thought, "Don't force me to be a lesbian. I like men!" But Sister Rui is so beautiful, I can't help myself!
"Don't thank me, as long as you are satisfied. If you have anything you want, I will give it to you even if it costs me everything." The prince looked at Tang Wenshu with a determined light in his eyes.
"Prince, you're so kind to me." Tang Wenshu was overjoyed. Unable to resist, she stood on tiptoe and placed a gentle kiss on the prince's cool, beautiful face, as fleeting as a dragonfly touching water. This sudden gesture of affection startled the prince, but he quickly recovered, a doting smile playing on his lips. Interesting. Shu'er was truly surprising.
When spring arrives next year and the flowers bloom, this prince will take you on a leisurely cruise to Jinghu Lake! Come inside quickly; it's already late autumn, and it's freezing cold outside. Watching Tang Wenshu's receding figure, the prince couldn't help but raise his voice and call out, as if wanting to convey his overflowing anticipation and concern to her. He stood quietly, his gaze following the retreating figure until she completely disappeared from his sight, only then retracting his gaze and turning to get back into the carriage...
