After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 191 We've fought
Shi Nuanyu pinched the boy's cheek, still feeling aggrieved.

"Hmph, you know you made a mistake, but will you dare to do it again next time?"

It's all his fault for making her suffer.

The chaotic ordeal gave her no chance to catch her breath, and when she woke up, it was already the day the envoys were to pay their respects.

My plan to meet with the head of the Inspection Department also fell through.

She no longer believed the lies men told in bed.

Hua Lingyan pouted, "It won't happen again next time."

With a pitiful look on his face, he clearly meant he would do it again next time.

Shi Nuanyu rewarded him with a resounding thud, saying, "You actually believed your nonsense."

Don't let Ah Ling's harmless appearance fool you; she's actually incredibly jealous.

If she hadn't stopped her, she would have taken her sword and killed Duan Jiuyun the next day.

Outside, maids bustled about, preparing for tonight's banquet.

Recalling the aggressive demeanor of the Second Prince of Dongchen, I imagine tonight will also be a verbal battle.

Shi Nuanyu slumped in the boy's arms, idly playing with the buttons on his clothes.

"Ah Ling, do you know about the Surveillance Department?"

Although the Censorate and the Secret Guard are in different positions, they should know something about it.

Hua Lingyan's gaze froze. "Why did you suddenly ask, sister?"

Shi Nuanyu did not intend to hide it. "That day, while I was handling memorials in the study, there was one that impeached the Shan family for abusing their military power. The memorial was signed by the Supervisory Department."

There are many suspicious points in this matter, so I thought I'd go and check with the Censorate.

In the original book, Shan Baiyu would not have rebelled if the two generals of the Zhong family had not died.

Now that she's here, she naturally won't let the Shan family suffer an unjust accusation.

The Censorate was directly under the Emperor, but when she asked him that day, he told her to figure it out herself.

Several days have passed, and we still don't know where the Inspection Department is.

Hua Lingyan's eyes darkened slightly as she leaned down and nibbled at her earlobe.

"Ah Ling will get you whatever you want, sister."

It's just the Inspectorate.

The boy kissed her neck, but she couldn't help but push him away because of the ticklish sensation.

Shi Nuanyu reached out and hooked her arm around the boy's neck. "Don't do anything reckless. I've heard that the head of the Censorate is very powerful, but he is ultimately a member of the royal family, so I will find him."

The soft and adorable boy was just too cute; I couldn't help but kiss his chin.

"It's enough that A-Ling is by my side."

Seeing that she treated herself like a child, Hua Lingyan bit her lip in resentment.

"Sister, A-Ling is a man."

A man who can make his older sister comfortable, besides, he's a year older than her and is no longer a child.

While the two were entwined in a passionate embrace, someone inconsiderately broke down the door and entered.

The man in red shouted excitedly, "I'm back! Poisonous woman, come and give me a hug!"

Before I could even open my arms to be embraced, I looked closely and saw the two of them kissing.

He instantly flew into a rage, "Shi Nuanyu, I've worked day and night to subdue all the sects of the martial arts alliance, and this is how you wait for me?"

There was no soft, warm embrace, nor a tender kiss.

Why did he rush back for several days without sleep?

Shi Nuanyu awkwardly got up from the boy, "W-Welcome back."

This is so dramatic! Everything else is perfectly legitimate, but it seems like...

"Hmph," Wei Wei raised his chin and opened his arms, "Since you welcome me, I'll reluctantly let you hug me."

During this period, he consulted many married men to learn from their experiences, and concluded that one must coax one's wife.

Shi Nuanyu chuckled and took two steps forward to hug him.

"Can't you be more honest?"

Fortunately, I have a stubborn mouth. If I had a stubborn personality and couldn't speak, I would definitely be angry with myself for the rest of my life.

The woman he longed for was in his arms, yet he had never truly and fully experienced her warmth. "I'm straightforward; where am I not honest?"

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, Hua Lingyan drew her sword, grabbed his collar, and went outside.

"We fought."

Before he could even try to steady himself in his flustered state, he was so angry he gritted his teeth. "Let go, you little idiot! You've already hugged me, and now you won't even let me hug you back?"

A failed attempt to kiss escalated into a fight; who wouldn't be angry?

The two quarrelsome men drew their swords at each other, and Shi Nuanyu ran out of the room looking for something.
Tao Huiyan leaned against the door to stop her, "He went to the southern border and has not returned."

They went to southern Xinjiang!
Shi Nuanyu felt a little lost; she missed Fusheng.

Pulling herself back to reality, she looked at the man who had suddenly returned.

"Didn't you go to handle the Tao family's business? Why are you back?"

Tao Huiyan chuckled and joked, "Your Highness doesn't want me to come back."

He smiled outwardly, but inwardly he was secretly nervous.

I'm really afraid to hear that "I don't want to".

Shi Nuanyu smiled, her eyebrows curving into crescent moons, and reached out to interlock her fingers with his.

"The Princess's residence is also your home. Where do you plan to go if you don't come back?"

Although they hadn't confessed their feelings to each other, she understood after spending so much time together.

Don't be fooled by Tao Huiyan's seemingly charming and philandering nature; she is actually quite fragile inside.

Home!
The princess's residence is his home!
Tao Huiyan was deeply moved and felt uneasy for two days, but was comforted by her words.

He held the hand of the person he loved again, never wanting to let go.

He mustered his courage, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead, soothing the worries in his heart.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The road ahead is difficult, but he already knows which choice to make.

The banquet was held as scheduled, with bright lights, melodious music, interspersed candlelight, and gold and jade cups arranged in an orderly fashion.

The children of officials were invited to the banquet. Shi Nuanyu sat at the head of the table, with the Crown Prince of Beilin to her right, and the others being Wei Zengshi, Tao Huiyan, and Hua Lingyan.

On the left are the Second Prince of Dongchen and the Princess, with the remaining envoys and officials.

Eunuch Liu's voice boomed, "Let the banquet begin."

Shi Nuanyu raised her wine cup, "Today, all nations pay homage, and this palace is honored by the Emperor's grace to host you all. Please raise your cups and drink to celebrate the peace and prosperity of this homage."

After the banquet, the envoys had to stay for a few more days to enjoy the local customs and culture of the Southern Moon, and the last few days were the most tiring.

The crowd shouted in unison, "May Nan Yue live a thousand years, and may Her Highness the Princess live a thousand years in peace."

As the banquet began, the officials exchanged pleasantries and mostly discussed amusing anecdotes about their children at the academy.

The Second Prince of Dongchen raised his cup and said with ill intent, "The princess has a broad mind, which is the style of a great nation."

He sighed deliberately, "My brother and I came to Nanyue to study together, but unfortunately, it's time for men to marry and women to be married."

My younger sister met a handsome young man on her journey and has fallen in love with him. I humbly request that the princess grant her wish.

Princess Dongchen searched for her husband and found him at Nanyue's head.

Nan Yue never uses marriage alliances to show weakness.

"I know that Nan Yue is a powerful country and have long declared that I will not engage in marriage alliances. My younger sister is a woman and is seeking a man, so there is no question of marriage alliances between us."

"I hope that Your Highness will grant my wish, considering my deep affection."

One sentence silenced Shi Nuanyu's remaining words: not marrying into the family meant love and mutual affection, and she had no right to stop it.

"Who has your younger sister taken a fancy to?"

She wanted to see what Dongchen was up to.

Princess Fule walked shyly to the center of the stage, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Princess Nanyue."

"Stop," Shi Nuanyu interrupted, "If it is truly mutual affection, I will not do anything unnecessary. But if it is only one-sided, I will definitely take action."

Regardless of their motives, she wouldn't randomly arrange a marriage between them.

"Tell me who your beloved is, and whether she is at the banquet?"

Fule answered each question in turn. "Fule is in love with the other party, but wants to ask for an opportunity. If he doesn't agree, Fule will not make things difficult for him."

As she spoke, she looked around and then focused her gaze on the man in red who was eating and drinking.
