Chapter 150: Husband wants to eat mouth?
"Hmph! You're such a smooth talker." Ji Anyu pulled his hand back and patted Shen Jing on the shoulder.

She looked at the prince who had come to Qi Wangfu unexpectedly, "Why is he here?"

Shen Jing's face suddenly darkened. The emperor did not allow the prince to marry a princess from a powerful family. If he married a princess of noble status but without power to serve as a front, the emperor would also be happy to see it happen.

He grew up with Princess Zhaohui. In his heart, Princess Zhaohui was like his own sister. He didn't want the prince to take advantage of Princess Zhaohui's marriage.

Princess Qi was also surprised that the Crown Prince came without saying hello. Seeing the Crown Prince chatting and laughing with Zhao Hui, Princess Qi's heartstrings couldn't help but tense.

Was it the Queen's idea that the Crown Prince come to Qi Wangfu this time? Or was it the Crown Prince's own idea?
Zhao Hui didn't know that her mother and Shen Jing were already cursing the prince for being an eyesore in their hearts. She was very happy that the prince came to show his support. Who said that their Qi Wang Mansion would be ruined without her father? The crown prince of the current dynasty gave face to the Qi Wang Mansion.

"Cousin Prince, please sit next to me later." Zhao Hui secretly thought that she wanted to let all the noble ladies in the capital know that the prince was protecting the Prince Qi's Mansion, so that no one would dare to laugh at her behind her back.

Chen Yuxian had exactly this in mind. He needed a girl whose status was more noble than Ji Yunchu's and who was easier to deal with to help him cancel the engagement with Ji Yunchu.

When he is no longer restrained by Ji Yunchu, he will spread the word that he and Princess Zhaohui are siblings, and that he will treat Princess Zhaohui as if he were taking care of his own sister.

Even though outsiders speculated that he intended to marry Princess Zhaohui, it was just speculation. It couldn't be true unless he proposed.

When Princess Qi saw that the Crown Prince was sitting next to Zhaohui despite everyone's gaze, with a stiff smile on his face, she secretly gave Zhaohui a wink.

But Princess Zhaohui didn't notice it. She was just happy that the Crown Prince was supporting their Prince Qi's Mansion.

After Shen Yuxian sat for half an hour, he looked at everyone with high spirits and said to Princess Qi with a little respect, "I have some official business to attend to, so I will leave first."

Everyone bowed and said, "Farewell, His Royal Highness."

As soon as the prince left, the atmosphere at the scene became much more joyful, and the noble ladies who wanted to curry favor with Princess Zhaohui hurriedly approached Princess Zhaohui.

"My Lord, you look so beautiful in this outfit."

"Princess, the hairpin on your head is very unique. Who made it?"

The chattering sound lingered in Princess Zhaohui's ears. Princess Zhaohui happily stroked the pendant on her hairpin. Her cousin the Crown Prince was indeed useful. Today, more people were trying to curry favor with her than before.

Ji Anyu leaned against Shen Jing, supporting her chin with her mouth while chewing the nuts that Shen Jing had peeled, her eyes fixed on the bright face of Princess Zhaohui.

"Princess Zhaohui is indeed dignified and elegant, and is suitable to be the Crown Princess."

Shen Jing paused while peeling the nuts, looked up at Princess Zhaohui, then lowered his head and continued peeling the nuts.

"She is not suitable. I will not let her marry that fool of a prince."

Ji Anyu raised his eyebrows and licked his back teeth, then shifted his gaze to Shen Jing's hands who were concentrating on peeling nuts.

"Don't be anxious, my dear husband. Worrying too much will only make you confused. Wait a few more days. There will be another good show to watch in the capital."

She raised a playful smile, pinched a lotus seed, and stuffed the lotus seed into Shen Jing's mouth, and her index finger stroked Shen Jing's lower lip intentionally or unintentionally.

Wow! It's quite soft.

Shen Jing's expression changed slightly, and he glanced at the person next to him.

"Don't mess around." There was a hint of desire in his tone.

"Who messed around?" Ji Anyu's eyes flashed with a smile, she looked around without changing her expression, "No one messed around, my husband saw it wrong."

Shen Jing felt as if a breath was stuck in his throat. He pursed his lips and lowered his head to continue peeling nuts.

Ji Anyu saw that Shen Jing failed to hold the nut firmly several times, and the small nut slipped from Shen Jing's hand.

"Why are you so nervous, my husband?"

Shen Jing twisted the nut again as if nothing had happened, "Who is panicking? You must have seen it wrong."

Ji Anyu couldn't help laughing, and suddenly felt a strong gaze falling on her. She subconsciously looked over and saw Wei Yanyue staring at her with jealousy. "Husband, this chestnut cake is delicious, you try it." Ji Anyu picked up the chestnut cake and handed it to Shen Jing's mouth.

Shen Jing caught the amusement in Ji Anyu's eyes, and he cooperated by opening his mouth and biting, and his lips touched Ji Anyu's finger.

Ji Anyu teased, "You were the one who messed around. I didn't move."

"Hmm." Shen Jing chewed the chestnut cake, his eyes involuntarily moved to Ji Anyu's red lips, and then he quickly looked away.

Unexpectedly, Ji Anyu suddenly said something that almost broke his calm expression.

"Husband, do you want to eat your mouth? When we get back later, we will eat again. We will definitely let you eat enough."

Shen Jing's ears turned red and he pulled Ji Anyu's sleeve.

Ji Anyu glanced at Shen Jing's ears which were red as if they were about to bleed. She ate the chestnut cake with a beaming smile on her face.

Qin Junxun, who was watching them from a distance, had a look of envy in his eyes.

After the banquet, Ji Anyu held Shen Jing's hand and whispered to Shen Jing, who was not looking away, "We don't have to go home to eat. We can eat in the carriage."

Shen Jing swallowed silently, gently pulled Ji Anyu, silently signaling Ji Anyu to stop talking, but his pace quickened a lot.

As soon as they got on the carriage, Ji Anyu hugged Shen Jing's neck and was about to kiss him, but suddenly he heard Zhu Sha shout, "There's an assassin!"

Before she could react, Shen Jing grabbed her waist and picked her up. When she came to her senses, he was already outside the carriage.

Shen Jing saw that the assassins were all elite soldiers and were coming for him, so he handed Ji Anyu to Qin Junxun who came forward to help.

He lured away the assassin, and Qin Junxun escorted Ji Anyu away.

"Crown Princess, I'm sorry!" Qin Junxun threw Ji Anyu onto the horse's back, then rode away.

Ji Anyu didn't know where Qin Junxun was taking her, and her stomach was shaking from the horse, and she felt like vomiting.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Junxun stopped his horse and put Ji Anyu down through her clothes.

"Please follow me, Princess."

Ji Anyu looked around and saw that there was no one here. She couldn't help feeling nervous.

"Master Qin, why don't you send me back to Prince Zhong's Mansion?"

"Prince Zhong's mansion is not safe now. The Crown Prince was assassinated. Those assassins are not ordinary assassins. People in the mansion must go to help."

Ji Anyu followed Qin Junxun into the secret room. It was dark at first, but as the doors opened one after another, the room became brighter and brighter.

"Follow me closely, Princess, don't worry, it's safe here."

Ji Anyu nodded cautiously. After she walked out of the secret room, she found that there were people outside. The first people she met were secret guards, and later they were women and children.

"This..." Ji Anyu was shocked, "The secret room actually leads to the village." She looked at the women and children on the road and saw that they all showed respect to Qin Junxun.

Qin Junxun explained, "They are the families of the prince's subordinates."

Ji Anyu had complicated feelings. She guessed that Shen Jing had private soldiers, but she didn't want to know too much. The more she knew, the more disadvantageous it would be for her. It would be best for her and Shen Jing to just be "a couple on the surface".

Just when she was trying to find another topic to stop Qin Junxun from revealing more to her, she saw the hairpin in Qin Junxun's hand.

Just when Qin Junxun opened the door, something fell out of his sleeve. Because the light was dim, she couldn't see clearly, so Qin Junxun immediately squatted down and picked it up.
