The Cold King Demands Love and Pleasure

Do you not remember, don't know, or are you unclear about the three principles of being a person?

Xia Tongsheng's expression softened slightly, and she teased him, "When did Your Highness learn to play the fool?"

He smiled without saying a word, then raised his eyes and asked, "Do you have something to discuss with me?"

"Your Highness, I am your wife. Do I need any reason to come to you?"

Does she have to write a memorial to the throne, submit it, and then wait for approval at each level before she can see him?

“No need!” Min Youan seemed to think that three simple words could not prove his feelings, so he added, “As long as you want to see me, not to mention now, even if I’m taking a dump, you can still appear in front of me!”

Taking a dump?! What happened to the aloof prince we were promised?!

When did you become so down-to-earth...?

"Your Highness, I really have something to discuss with you today!"

"What is it?" Min Youan looked up, his eyes gleaming slightly.

"I......"

Before she could finish speaking, Cang Jue stood at the door, interrupting their conversation, "Your Highness, something terrible has happened!"

"what happened?"

Cang Jue glanced at Xia Tongsheng beside him, his gaze darting away as he concealed the truth, "His Majesty has urgent business with you!"

"Okay, got it!"

He turned to look at Xia Tongsheng, "Your Highness, please continue!"

"Alright, since the Emperor has summoned you, it must be urgent. You should go now!"

Her story is not something that can be explained in a short time.

Min Youan stood up, and as he passed by Xia Tongsheng, he brushed her hair aside and lowered his voice, "Then I will answer your questions properly when I return!"

He emphasized the words when answering questions!

Damn, that's provocative!

This man is becoming more and more irresponsible. At this moment, all she wants to ask is, can I return him?

Watching the man leave, Xia Tongsheng stayed alone in the palace, wondering how to bring up Mo Chen's matter with Min You'an.

Mo Chen's identity was her bottom line! She had to protect him!

When Min Youan returned to the manor, he saw Xia Tongsheng squatting on the ground alone, seemingly waiting for someone!

From afar, the petite figure appeared even thinner and less beautiful as she squatted, but even so, from the moment he saw that figure, Min Youan's lips curled into an inescapable smile!

Cang Jue watched from the side, feeling a little jealous. He usually tried so hard to make the prince laugh, but it was so difficult. But the princess was different. She just squatted there and did nothing, and she could make the prince's whole body brighten up!

This is the power of love!

As they approached the gate of the Prince's mansion, Xia Tongsheng knew from the sound of horses' hooves that Min You'an had returned, and she got up to greet him!

Min Youan was afraid that his horse would frighten Xia Tongsheng if it got too close, so when they were still some distance from the inner gate, he used his light footwork to float to Xia Tongsheng's side!

With quick reflexes, Cang Jue grabbed the reins of Min You'an's horse and rode back through the back gate, leading one horse at a time!

He knew perfectly well that the prince dismounted to avoid disturbing the princess. If he were to lead the horse past the princess at this moment, wouldn't he be courting death?

"It seems you've really run into trouble, that you're actually sitting and squatting by the door waiting for me?" He was somewhat displeased. "Aren't you worried that rumors will spread throughout the capital tomorrow that I'm abusing you?"

Xia Tongsheng wrapped her arms around his neck. "Your Highness, I really have something important to tell you!"

"What is it? Let's go inside and talk!" Min You let her hook her arms around his neck, then casually put his arm around her slender waist and picked her up!

Xia Tongsheng then clung to Min Youan like a long-armed ape!

As she passed by the pavilion, she was seen by the sixth wife, who was resting there during her pregnancy. She quickly covered her belly and silently prayed, "The baby didn't see her, the baby didn't see her!"

She thought to herself, "Can't these two just behave themselves? Aren't they afraid of setting a bad example for children and—old folks—in broad daylight?"

The two were so intimate that Xia Tongsheng could even feel his breathing. She suddenly asked, "Your Highness, is there anything between us that we can't say?"

Min Youan stopped and looked down at her. "We are husband and wife. Husband and wife should be honest with each other!"

"To be completely honest with each other?" She chuckled, a hint of mockery in her voice. "Your Highness, do you really have no secrets from me?"

"Hmm—" he drawled, showing a slight hesitation about the question. It would be impossible for him to say that he had no secrets from Xia Tongsheng.

There are too many things he hasn't been honest with Xia Tongsheng about, the most obvious of which is his wealth!

There are some things he could tell her, but he's too lazy to say them; there are some things he can't tell her because he's afraid of losing her!

For example, her mother, and his plans...

There are many other things that can't help her at all, but will only cause her unnecessary worry!

Seeing that Min Youan was about to speak, Xia Tongsheng warned him first, "Your Highness, you'd better think carefully before you answer!"

Min Youan shook his head helplessly, conceding defeat, "I admit I have a secret from you!"

Xia Tongsheng quickly chimed in, "So you see, Your Highness, you say that husband and wife should be honest with each other, but you still have secrets from me. I've always believed that husband and wife should have some secrets, otherwise if they're too transparent with each other, they'll lose a lot of the fun of exploring each other!"

Therefore, Xia Tongsheng would conceal the direction of Yanxiang's reforms from him.

Min Youan reached behind his neck and pried Xia Tongsheng's hands off him, making her get off him. His expression was a little serious.

"Your Highness, you've pulled me aside to tell me a secret today; surely it's not as simple as it seems!"

In fact, he had already seen through Xia Tongsheng's intentions. He came to the study to find him in the morning and waited for him in front of the Prince's Mansion in the afternoon, all because of Mo Chen's matter!

She just didn't want to point it out, so he just played along!

"Your Highness, what I want to tell you is that everyone has their own secrets. You see, you have your secrets that you don't want me to know, and I also have my own secrets that I don't want you to know. Shouldn't we also respect each other's right to have secrets?"

Min Youan stared at her for a few seconds, his eyes as cold as if they were being tempered, stinging the skin. Just when Xia Tongsheng thought Min Youan was about to speak, he suddenly left!

Xia Tongsheng was a little scared. What was going on? She had only just begun to tentatively test his limits, so why was he angry so easily?

That's way too high a bar! How can we even negotiate...?
