The concubine is soft and charming, and the prince is willing to seduce her

Chapter 194 Midnight Conversation
Shen Zhiyu coaxed Zhao Zhao to sleep with gentle eyes and softly stroked her little face.

Last night was extremely dangerous. Even if Jiang Xu took her to hide, she was still worried, fearing that someone would accidentally find their hiding place.

As for why Sui Sui was not here, when King Yun Xian sent Fan Meng to lure Qing Dai into poisoning, she ordered people to secretly send Sui Sui to General Shen's mansion to be taken care of by her father.

Anyway, her father also liked these two children. Every time he visited them and was about to leave, his eyes were full of reluctance to leave, as if he only wished he could take the children back home and raise them himself.

This time, it’s all to fulfill his wish of being a grandfather.

Qingdai brought a bowl of lotus seed soup. Seeing Zhaozhao sleeping soundly on the couch, she deliberately slowed down her pace and said, "Master, please have some food!"

Ever since the master fainted from exhaustion last night, he has stayed by the child's side without stopping after waking up.

Shen Zhiyu turned her head to look at the bead curtain. No one came in from outside. She didn't know when Wei Qingye would come back.

"Send this to Sister Mu and Sister Jiang in the East Warm Pavilion. Let them fill their stomachs before going back to sleep. Don't hurt their spleen and stomach." Shen Zhiyu lowered her eyes with an unclear expression.

She couldn't eat anything now. She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Wei Qingye. If the timing hadn't been wrong last night, she would have questioned him on the spot.

Qingdai placed the lotus seed soup on the low table and said, "Master, Lianyue has already sent someone to deliver the food to the East Warm Pavilion. I guarantee that the two concubines will not starve."

Fortunately, two people helped us in the chaotic situation last night. This friendship alone is enough to move people.

"Your Highness?" Qiu Cui shouted in shock, even forgetting to salute.

After hearing the noise in the inner room, Shen Zhiyu looked at Qingdai, then stood up and walked outside.

The beaded curtain jingled as it swung. She watched a man in dark green court robes stride towards her, the tasseled headband on his crown swaying behind him.

"Your Highness, please take a bath and have your meal first!" Shen Zhiyu raised her hand to help him take off his crown and outer robe.

Wei Qingye wanted to explain to her, but was pushed into the bathroom.

How could Mu Chang and Jiang Xu not hear such a loud noise? They put their clothes in order and walked out stealthily, avoiding His Highness.

Shen Zhiyu wanted to say something, but Mu Chang pulled her arm and whispered, "Zhizhi, please don't let His Highness know that we slept here. Otherwise, all three of us will have a hard time."

Shen Zhiyu didn't understand what she meant, Jiang Xu patted her hands, "If Zhizhi doesn't understand why, just ask His Highness, he will tell you."

How come this little girl, who is so smart about other things, becomes so stupid when faced with something like this?

Mu Chang pulled Jiang Xu along and walked slowly on the official road, muttering softly, "Jiang Xu, why did you lie to Zhizhi?"

Jiang Xu yawned and looked exhausted. "I didn't, don't talk nonsense here. Why can't His Highness know what we helped do last night?"

Only if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows about this, will he find a way to send the two of them away as soon as possible, and they will be free as soon as possible.

Mu Chang nodded, "You are right, we can't work hard for nothing."

After waiting for Wei Qingye to wash up and eat, he was so tired that he fell on the couch holding Zhizhi and fell asleep.

When she opened her eyes again, Shen Zhiyu was awakened by the torment.

"Your Highness, please don't..." His Highness's rough hand moved along her cheek and neck, all the way down. Finally, his fingertips landed on her heart, feeling her heartbeat one by one.

"Zhizhi, do you know how scared I am that I won't be able to come back?" Wei Qingye lowered his head and buried his head in the crook of her neck, his voice hoarse, "Every time I see you in my dreams, before I can hug you properly, you disappear."

Shen Zhiyu raised her hand and gently stroked his cheek, "Your Highness, this is real, not a dream."

Wei Qingye held her waist tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he was not careful.

Shen Zhiyu gently told him what had happened in the past few days and how she had dealt with it.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince grabbed her hand and placed it on his lips and kissed it, "I know that Zhizhi is very powerful. If you were not a woman, you would probably be killing people in the court right now.

I feel more and more sorry for you, and even more sorry for our children. I was not able to be with them when they were born into this world. All of this is my fault.

Shen Zhiyu felt the guilt emanating from the man, which seemed to wrap her up tightly.

"If Your Highness says that you don't want you to stay safe with me and the children, then that is definitely a lie. As the crown prince of Southern Qin, Your Highness shoulders the livelihoods of thousands of ordinary people. There is nothing wrong with serving the country and the people, but——"

Shen Zhiyu gently kissed him on the cheek, "Your Highness, please think of the Queen Mother, the Emperor, me, and the children in your heart occasionally when you are in danger, and take good care of yourself."

She had no right to ask this man to abandon the public for his own family, but she hoped that this man could take both into consideration a little bit.

"I understand what Zhizhi means. Thank you for understanding me. At the beginning, my mother said that it is difficult for two people who love each other to stay together. At that time, I didn't understand why my mother said so. It was not until now that I seem to understand what she meant."

Shen Zhiyu was also thankful in her heart that she had been attracted to this man and had taken a gamble, allowing herself to sink into him. Fortunately, God still favored her and let her win the gamble.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. After a heart-to-heart talk in the middle of the night, the sense of alienation was suddenly broken. They snuggled together intimately, like a pair of mandarin ducks making love.

In the early morning, Zhao Zhao, who was full of energy after a good sleep, waved her little hands and said "Ya Ya~Ya Ya~". Chen Fang knew that Zhao Zhao was looking for Yue Jieyu, so she quickly carried her to the inner room.

Shen Zhiyu sat in front of the dressing table wearing her outer dress, slowly combing her long hair. Because the Crown Prince was still asleep, she did not allow anyone to come in to serve her.

When she saw Chen Fang carrying Zhao Zhao in, she knew that this girl must have woken up and started making a fuss looking for someone.

"Your Highness has not woken up yet. Mammy, just give Zhaozhao to me." Shen Zhiyu raised her hand and took the swaddled baby girl over, coaxing her skillfully.

Zhao Zhao stared at her with his big eyes like black grapes, raised his hand and grabbed her clothes without letting go, and made a "Yaah~Yaah~" sound from his mouth from time to time.

Chen Fang reminded quietly: "Master, the Crown Princess hasn't had her milk yet..."

Shen Zhiyu nodded, "It's okay, I'll feed him myself later."

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Zhaozhao in her arms, Chen Fang left quietly.

Zhao Zhao was blowing bubbles from his mouth and having a lot of fun.

Shen Zhiyu held her and coaxed her for a while before she placed her on the couch and used a pillow to block the outside.

Zhao Zhao was not being held by anyone. She pursed her lips as if she was about to cry but couldn't. She kept calling out "Ah~ Ah~", but unfortunately no one could understand what baby language she was speaking.

My fingers are swollen tonight, and it hurts so much to type. The most important thing is that my dad is watching me while I type (／_＼), so I really can’t write (﹏)
If I write the next chapter and someone sees it, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death, so my life is more important (.)
I'll make it up to you tomorrow (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)
