The seductive princess is no longer being pursued; the aloof prime minister is facing a crematorium.

Chapter 154 Jiang Jinshuang is not good.

"Lord Pei is as elegant as an orchid and as refined as a gentle breeze and a bright moon."

No, he was too private and cautious to express it.

"Lord Pei is upright and impartial, and never shows any favoritism."

He was filled with lust and feared he would defile her ears.

"Lord Pei is rigid and boring, following the rules too strictly."

……

He... is hypocritical and not a gentleman.

He has selfish desires.

vile, filthy, dirty, and shameful.

He closed his eyes slightly.

It was as if her finger bones were slowly moving down his chest.

She was never afraid to look directly into his desires.

Their gazes held a provocative, or perhaps mocking, quality.

"Pei Du, did you enjoy that?"

Her words echoed in my ears.

His Adam's apple bobbed repeatedly, like a burning ember stuck in his throat, as if trying to control his breathing and voice.

It was also because of his exceptional memory that he could recall and recreate all the sensations that touched him, as long as he closed his eyes slightly.

She always seemed to look at him with indifferent eyes.

It's like looking at some insignificant passerby, like looking at a stranger who doesn't care.

But in truth, even that look in his eyes was enough for him to... indulge in his desires.

He was hardly a promising talent.

Not to mention her teasing whispers and the leg she placed between his as she leaned toward him.

It was his absurdity.

It's his fault for being absurd.

Every place was a temptation to him.

She said, "Lord Pei, you are truly old-fashioned and boring."

Yes.

That's definitely true.

Therefore, those unspeakable thoughts could only be glimpsed in the dead of night, on that small piece of bellyband.

no.

not like this.

—At least, not entirely.

But how to explain it, and to whom, Pei Du himself was unsure.

The material of that bellyband was the finest fabric and silk from the capital.

It is said to be made from silkworms that are young and spin cocoons, and then undergoes multiple processes.

It's gentle on the skin and doesn't get hot even after prolonged contact.

—But Pei Du felt hot.

A sliver of silk peeked through her fingers, unable to contain the excessively hot object.

Jiang Jinshuang is not good.

When she was in love, all eyes were on him. She had pampered him for three years, which made him appear refined, dignified, and aloof.

She said, "Pei Du, you are like the moon that is out of reach in the sky."

no.

—He is not the moon.

The moon has no selfish desires.

The moon won't be holding onto her bodice...

Jiang Jinshuang is not good.

Jiang Jinshuang is not good...

My thoughts are jumbled.

Suddenly, he inexplicably remembered that many years ago, she liked to sit in his side hall, right next to him, with a proper book cover, looking at some not-so-proper paintings and calligraphy.

He was young then, and his mind went blank.

"Your Highness, you should go back and rest."

In the chaos, he chased her away.

She chuckled and clicked her tongue: "Pei Du, you don't even have any relief yourself—"

...Have you solved it before?

Pei Du understood the meaning of the few words she didn't ask aloud.

She asked, "Pei Du, a sage is without desire. Do you want to be a sage?"

“Young Master Pei, people eat grains and other foods, so they have emotions and desires; this is normal.”

Is this a common occurrence?

Pei Du was unaware.

He didn't know if his current appalling behavior was considered "common practice" for men before marriage.

At the time, she teased him, "If I marry you in the future, won't I suffer?"

What did he say back then? He said…

He said.

He said, "Your Highness, I will learn."

He learns things very quickly.

A sage is without desires; he cannot become a sage.

He couldn't even manage to follow the rule that "a gentleman should not act improperly."

He is hypocritical; he is two-faced.

He is neither a gentleman nor a saint.

Jiang Jinshuang is not good.

She discarded him completely, even casually dusting off her hands as if he were nothing.

Jiang Jinshuang is not good.

"frost……"

“Jiang…Jiang Jinshuang…”

not good.

not good……

Although the undergarment was finely made, it couldn't withstand his excessive wear and tear.

A red plum blossom was embroidered on that bib.

The edges of the red plum blossoms are made of soft gold thread, which is not prickly but is still somewhat rough.

The finger bones changed from a slightly reddish tinge to a bluish-white.

"laugh--"

Suddenly, everything went white before Pei Du's eyes, but he saw her smiling at him, raising an eyebrow and sneering, refusing to be tainted by even the slightest filth.

Then she turned and left without a trace of regret.

Quiet.

A silence.

It paused for a moment.

I finally slowly got out of bed.

The undergarment on her hand was soaked.

Not in good shape.

Bathed in moonlight, Pei Du dared not look any longer.

The red plum blossoms embroidered on it are even more vibrant.

Pei Du took a deep breath and stood up from the bed.

I lifted the curtain and pushed open the door.

A cool breeze was blowing, as if trying to dispel something.
-
The next morning.

After Jiang Jinshuang finished washing up, she looked at herself in the bronze mirror, shook her head, and shook the earrings on her ears.

Chun Tao helped Jiang Jinshuang straighten her clothes and asked her with a smile, "What are your plans for today, Your Highness?"

Jiang Jinshuang nodded: "I have an appointment to meet someone today, so I need to prepare properly."

"Are you guests?" Chun Tao smiled. "Then should I prepare some gifts or something?"

Jiang Jinshuang nodded: "We do need to prepare some gifts."

She paused for a moment and then smiled, "Go and fetch my sword."

Chun Tao paused, the smile fading from her lips: "Your Highness..."

Seeing Chun Tao's worried expression, Jiang Jinshuang smiled and patted Chun Tao's shoulder: "Don't worry, it's a small matter, your prince can handle it."

Although Chun Tao was worried, she nodded earnestly: "This servant believes in Your Highness."

There is nothing in this world that His Highness cannot solve.

Jiang Jinshuang's sword was actually just a dagger a little over eight inches long.

She gave her original sword to Yan Jue, and has rarely used a longsword since then.

Holding the dagger, Jiang Jinshuang twirled it a few times in her hand, weighed it in her hand, and then hid it in her sleeve.

After giving Chun Tao a few more instructions, Jiang Jinshuang left the princess's residence alone.

The master of Weisheng Pavilion is still waiting for her on the top floor today.

A few days ago, she asked Si Ning to inform Lu Xiao and ask him to help her get in touch with the Pavilion Master of Weisheng Pavilion again, as she had something to ask him.

Yesterday, Si Ning sent back a message saying that he would be able to meet the Pavilion Master of Weisheng Pavilion on the top floor today.

Jiang Jinshuang smiled and followed two people wearing fox masks up the steps to a dimly lit area.

It was still hidden by a screen.

Behind the screen, Jiang Jinshuang saw the figure.

"Your Highness, is there something important that you need to see me so urgently?"

A figure moved, and Jiang Jinshuang raised an eyebrow slightly, but out of the corner of her eye, she missed the figure behind the screen and looked toward the shadowy side.

chuckled.

Jiang Jinshuang smiled and said, "Sect Leader, why don't we have an open and honest discussion?"

"Oh?" A figure flickered. "What exactly constitutes 'open and honest'?"

The next second, Jiang Jinshuang's eyes sharpened, and she suddenly flashed, stabbing towards a dark corner!

"For example, how about the Pavilion Master shows himself first?!"
