Quick Transmigration: Knowing I'm a Bad Woman, Yet Still Liking Me?
Chapter 49 From a Frail Imperial Concubine to an Empress Dowager Ruling Behind the Curtain
As Xiao Chengze felt the softness on his back, his last shred of reason vanished. He dragged Bai Yuan with one hand, pulling her directly in front of him.
Bai Yuan slowly raised her eyes, the corners of her eyes still damp.
Xiao Chengze watched as her eyelashes trembled slightly, his Adam's apple bobbing incessantly.
The woman's upturned eyes held a captivating allure, and he felt his soul being slowly devoured by her.
Xiao Chengze lowered his head and bit the woman's lips directly.
Outside, He Xiao heard footsteps approaching from afar and became extremely anxious.
Steward Zhang entered the neighboring courtyard. "Your Highness Prince Jin?"
After calling out a few times, he asked the people around him, "Have any of you seen His Highness Prince Jin leave?"
"Reporting to the steward, this servant just passed by and did not see His Highness Prince Jin."
Steward Zhang coughed lightly. "That means His Highness Prince Jin has probably returned to the front courtyard, or perhaps gone straight back. You should all go about your business and not come this way unless absolutely necessary. If you happen to offend the Imperial Concubine, you'll be in for a world of hurt."
"Yes, Steward Zhang, we'll be leaving now."
He Xiao was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard two more footsteps approaching from afar.
Wan Yue greeted them with a smile, "What are you doing here, Manager Zhang?"
"It's nothing, this servant just brought His Highness Prince Jin a change of clothes."
He Xiao recognized the voice as that of Bai Yuan's maid, so he quickly ran to the door and knocked. "Your Highness, Your Highness, please come out quickly! The maidservant of the Imperial Concubine has returned."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chengze raised his head and saw Bai Yuan slump into his arms.
His rough hands, honed from years of martial arts training, lingered on the woman's waist, unwilling to let go, and even showing signs of anger at being disturbed.
He growled in a low voice towards the outside, "Shut up, guard the door, and don't let anyone in."
He Xiao's eyes widened. He had already guessed what his prince was doing. Had the prince gone mad?
He quickly tried to dissuade him, "Your Highness, if you don't come out soon, things will be discovered..."
With the last shred of his sanity, Xiao Chengze said, "Go find Bai Jin and let him handle it."
After saying that, he picked up Bai Yuan with one arm, lifted the bed curtains, and threw her onto the bed.
Outside, Wan Yue pushed open the courtyard gate, saw He Xiao and paused for a moment, then closed the gate without much reaction.
He Xiao understood that their prince had been tricked. He glared fiercely at Wan Yue, "Didn't your general's mansion consider the consequences of your actions? Can you withstand His Majesty's wrath?"
Wan Yue looked at him like he was an idiot, and said with a look of disgust, "Then go to the palace and complain to His Majesty now."
"you......"
He Xiao's chest heaved violently with anger. "I'm not going to waste my breath on you. Watch the yard and don't let anyone in. I'm going to find General Bai."
After saying that, he quickly walked to the front yard and saw Bai Jin and Bai Yaoting sitting there drinking tea.
He Xiao's face darkened further. Without even a formal greeting, he said in a deep voice, "General Bai, our lord sent me to see you. As for why, I don't need to elaborate, do I?"
Bai Jin nodded, slowly putting down her teacup. "It's getting late, and we can't let anyone know that your prince is still at the Bai residence. I'm about the same size as your prince, so I'll go in his place."
He Xiao was seething with hatred, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Bai Jin. "Our prince came on horseback. It's dark now, so just cover your face and walk on a quiet path. No one will notice you. I'll take care of everything else once we get to the prince's residence."
Bai Jin just smiled faintly, "Okay, then I'll do whatever you say."
The moonlight quietly climbed onto the eaves, and the wind caressed the treetops, leaving only a few soft rustling sounds, which also dissipated the heat inside the house.
Bai Yuan rested her head on Xiao Chengze's arm, her slender fingers gently stroking the man's Adam's apple.
Xiao Chengze spent most of his time in the military, so he was physically strong with bulging, hard muscles.
As for why she went to all the trouble of finding Xiao Chengze when there are so many men out there?
One reason is that the man is young and handsome, and he also has good physical strength to be a general.
Secondly, because he currently only has three daughters, and if she gets pregnant, regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, the baby will definitely be a boy.
In this era, everyone values the continuation of their lineage.
As for why he has no son despite having wives and concubines, that's quite intriguing.
More importantly, he is Xiao Chengyu's younger brother, born of the same parents, which makes the relationship more exciting.
More importantly, he was a prince with military power.
No matter the era, those with soldiers are always the ones with the strongest backbone.
Of course, it was also because this guy had secretly followed him during the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
Xiao Chengze's breathing became heavier as he was teased by her. He moved his hand away from the woman's waist and grabbed both of her mischievous little hands in his own, saying in a vicious tone, "How dare you scheme against me! Aren't you afraid that I and His Majesty will punish you?"
Even without her hands, Bai Yuan was still restless. She snuggled closer to the man, her cool, soft little feet rubbing against his calves.
Bai Yuan's narrow eyes held a triumphant smile. "Your Highness, don't tell me you only just found out I plotted against you."
One sentence made Xiao Chengze pause. From the moment he saw Bai Yuan, he had already understood the Bai family's plan, otherwise he would not have sent He Xiao directly to Bai Jin.
Since they dared to scheme against me, they must have already planned how to handle the aftermath.
only......
Bai Yuan watched his expression slowly change, then smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Your Highness, all I want is an heir. You and His Majesty are both of royal blood, so what's the difference? I haven't confused the royal bloodline, so why are you being so fierce!"
Xiao Chengze stared at her in shock. "I have never seen such a rebellious and self-righteous woman before. How could you be like this..."
Bai Yuan fluttered her eyelashes and replied, "How could I be so bad?"
Xiao Chengze stared at her without speaking, but his expression showed his approval.
Bai Yuan leaned closer, pressing her nose against the man's chin, her voice seductive, "Knowing I'm bad, does Your Highness still like me?"
Xiao Chengze's expression was very complicated. He stared at Bai Yuan's alluring face for a long time before finally pressing the woman's hand hard against her back.
The deep sound that escaped his throat was, "I like it."
When he was young, he often followed General Bai. Later, they went to fight together. Bai Yuan and Bai Jin would occasionally follow along.
Her beauty was undeniable; back then, the Qi family's son was always chasing after her.
Even if it weren't for Qi Jiazi, there would be someone else.
Xiao Chengze knew perfectly well that whoever that person was, it definitely wouldn't be him.
Although he was His Majesty's younger brother, people change once they ascend to that position, and kinship was not as important as securing his throne.
As someone who also holds military power, the emperor would absolutely not allow him to marry into the general's family.
Knowing full well that it was impossible, I never even considered it.
But today, he suddenly realized that maybe he had always liked it, but he just hadn't realized it before.
However, he had never realized that Bai Yuan had such a side, a side that was so alluring and captivating, especially since she was now a Noble Consort.
Thinking of this, a surge of anger inexplicably rose in his chest, burning him to the point of losing all reason and becoming even more frantic.
