I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 214 Catch the adulterer
Hearing the seductive music in her ear, Ye Wanshu felt a chill and quickly rolled up the quilt, wrapping herself up like a silkworm cocoon, from head to toe in the brocade quilt.

"Fu Mingchi, His Majesty is waiting for you to enter the palace. Please go to the palace quickly."

A muffled sound drifted out from under the brocade quilt.

Just when she thought everything was calm around her, a gust of cool wind suddenly rushed in. Ye Wanshu was startled, and then she was pulled into a strong embrace by a strong arm. The warm temperature quickly swept over her whole body.

“But today, only Wan’er’s courtesan is here, not Prince Yongning.” Fu Mingchi held her in his arms with utmost tenderness, as if she were holding his most beloved treasure. “I only want to be with Wan’er, so that every day and night from now on, Wan’er can see me when she opens her eyes.”

Hearing this, Ye Wanshu felt both warm and a little scared.

She knew that recovering the northern border was a shared wish of his and His Majesty's, but she feared that after the wedding, he would have to rush to Jiayuguan again.

"Fu Mingchi, I wish we were just ordinary people in Yuezhou City, so we could live a peaceful life in Taowu, just thinking about our own lives," Ye Wanshu said with emotion.

Fu Mingchi smiled and said, "Then when I recover the northern border, I will accompany Wan'er back to Peach Blossom Valley."

"Okay," Ye Wanshu agreed verbally, but she knew perfectly well that the beautiful dream she once longed for was gone forever.

Now, her greatest hope is that Fu Mingchi can return safely from the Northern Border.

Thinking back to his plea in her ear, Ye Wanshu suddenly felt a surge of strength. Without making a sound, she leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "Do you still want to accept the imperial decree?"

Fu Mingchi blinked, and it took him a moment to realize the implied meaning in her words.

Feeling the soft, warm lips gently caressing his earlobe, the tingling, itchy sensation made Fu Mingchi turn away immediately, his mind wandering.

But thinking of how she had frantically fled from him just now, Fu Mingchi felt a pang of heartache. With restraint, he gently kissed her forehead, then calmly turned her back onto the soft pillow and said firmly, "I defy your decree."

"Hmm." Ye Wanshu was slightly taken aback, feeling somewhat disappointed that his expression had changed so quickly.

What a scoundrel! He doesn't even acknowledge me before I've even finished getting back together with him.

Ye Wanshu's restless fingers kept stroking his chest and abdomen, gently caressing him, making Fu Mingchi feel unbearably itchy.

"Don't move," Fu Mingchi said, burying his head in her ear, almost pleading, "Please don't move."

Ye Wanshu's teasing intensified, her fingers roaming over his well-defined abs: "Fu Mingchi, you haven't touched anyone else in all these years, isn't it hard to bear?"

puff!
Fu Mingchi was somewhat helpless; this girl really had no shame when she let loose.

Forcibly pressing her fingers against his chest and abdomen to prevent her from moving, Fu Mingchi said with some annoyance, "Shut up."

"Okay, I'll shut up." Ye Wanshu obediently closed her lips, but her fair legs lifted up again without making a sound, her toes rubbing against his leg, spreading all the way up from his ankle.

Fu Mingchi's face grew increasingly red, and his body trembled slightly as he tightly grasped her hand: "Ye Wanshu, stop fooling around."

"Oh," a soft voice came from her throat, and Ye Wanshu's eyes and brows were filled with laughter: "You care about me, and I care about you too. What if you get sick from holding it in?"

Her body silently moved up to his waist. Just as Fu Mingchi was about to resist, Ye Wanshu's hands were already firmly pressed on his wrists.

Looking down at the empty space beneath her, she gently pressed her lips to his ear and softly said, "His Majesty's decree cannot be disobeyed."

an hour later
Ye Wanshu felt as if her whole body had fallen apart, both sore and weak. Lying back on those firm chests and abdomens, she regretted her earlier teasing once again.

"Does Wan'er still need to deliver the decree?" A large hand tightly encircled her waist, its burning heat stimulating her internal organs. Hearing the wolfish voice above her, Ye Wanshu quickly shook her head: "No, His Majesty is tired. There are no more decrees to deliver today."

With great difficulty, Ye Wanshu turned her body to the side and found a comfortable position to lie on the "fleshy pillow" when she suddenly heard anxious calls from outside.

"Eldest sister, are you inside?"

Then came the voices of Chunhong and Xingtao: "Aunt Zheng, Second Miss, you can't go in. My young lady is taking a nap. Don't disturb her peace."

"The servants just said that a lecherous fellow broke into the mansion and disappeared in the blink of an eye. What if he had broken into the eldest young lady's room? Can you bear the consequences?" Aunt Zheng scolded discontentedly.

“Yes, the wedding is just around the corner, and Prince Yongning has not yet returned to the capital. We can’t let anything happen to our eldest sister,” Ji Ningxi said.

“What lecherous man? Aunt Zheng, stop talking nonsense!” Chunhong and Xingtao firmly blocked the crowd from entering. “Please leave immediately.”

"You good-for-nothing!" Aunt Zheng said unhappily, "I've long heard that your eldest daughter is always dissolute, flirting with men all day long. I'm afraid that while Prince Yongning is away from the capital, she's hooking up with some playboy again."

Ji Ningxi was worried about how to bring down her elder sister. If she exposed her elder sister's affair with that wild man today, the Prince of Yongning would probably be very grateful to her when he returned to the capital.

When the time comes, replacing him will be a piece of cake.

"These two lowly maids are definitely covering for their master," Ji Ningxi shouted sharply, "Take them down!"

Then, the door was kicked open, and Aunt Zheng and Ji Ningxi rushed in with their entourage.

Ye Wanshu heard the commotion outside and had just wrapped herself in an undergarment when the door was opened.

She quickly covered Fu Mingchi with the quilt, sat up, and glanced at Aunt Zheng and Ji Ningxi with displeasure: "Aunt Zheng and Second Sister are really getting more and more restless."

"Eldest sister is good at turning the tables; it's you who's the one who's causing trouble."

Ji Ningxi secretly glanced at the bed. Although her elder sister tried to cover it up, there was something fishy about it, and it was clear that someone was indeed hiding in the room.

"Eldest sister is really bold, daring to keep a mistress in a golden house."

She glanced at Aunt Zheng with a hint of relief, and Aunt Zheng immediately said, "It's fortunate that we arrived in time, otherwise Prince Yongning would probably have been kept in the dark for the rest of his life."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Sensing the intense killing intent emanating from under the covers, Ye Wanshu's brows furrowed slightly: "With the wedding imminent, I don't want my joyous occasion to be stained with blood. You should all leave now."

Ji Ningxi snorted coldly: "Eldest sister, do you think you are already the empress and have all the power in the court? Don't forget, the world of Daye belongs to the Fu family, not the Ye family."

"What are you all standing there for?" Aunt Zheng urged the servant beside her, "Quickly seize the adulterous couple."

Ye Wanshu got up to stop him, but Ji Ningxi grabbed her arm. Two servants rushed forward and suddenly saw the person in the quilt sit up with a sinister look in their eyes.

"Your Highness," Ji Ningxi exclaimed in surprise, "Aren't you still on your way back to the city?"

Aunt Zheng's legs went weak, and she staggered back to the door, completely at a loss.

“Wan’er is just a little soft-hearted.” Fu Mingchi slowly got up and gently pulled Ye Wanshu into his arms. “Today, I will handle the household affairs for you.”
