Chapter 55 The humble concubine is not cannon fodder 005
The person in front of me was struggling feebly, without the ghostly figure in my memory.
A dark and dangerous light flashed in Princess Lin'an's eyes... The next moment, Sheng Nuan felt a hand suddenly attached to her thigh, and then pinched it violently.
She was so painful that she subconsciously kicked out, but her calf was pinched and pushed back.
"You've served me well, please step aside."
Princess Lin'an let go of her and turned around, her voice seemed a little hoarse.
Sheng Nuan hurriedly climbed into the bathtub, rubbing her thighs and grinning, secretly cursing, this princess is really good at tormenting people...it hurt her to death.
"Su Lan, reward."
Princess Lin'an didn't even look at Sheng Nuan, she turned her back and spoke slowly.
Su Lan quickly bowed: "Yes, Your Highness."
After a while, Sheng Nuan changed her clothes, took a pair of heavy gold bracelets gifted by Princess Lin'an and returned to her Tangnuan courtyard. Along the way, she felt the weight of the pair of gold bracelets, and she couldn't help but feel happy.
.
"Your Highness the Princess is so kind..." She sincerely sighed to the little eunuch who had just led the way.
The little eunuch's eyebrows twitched, but his attitude was much better than before. He chuckled and agreed: "Your Highness has always been lenient."
That's weird...
Not long after Sheng Nuan left the Tangchi, Su Lan also closed the door and retreated outside the house.
In the soup pool, Princess Lin'an, who was lying there quietly, suddenly began to tremble, and the bones in her body were almost rattling. Then, her originally thin and slender figure suddenly began to grow taller...
After a while, the originally beautiful and elegant Princess Lin'an turned into a handsome man with deep features and narrow eyes.
The man's face was abnormally pale, and he was lying quietly on the shore, breathing heavily...
Sheng Nuan returned to Tangnuan Garden and knew that Xiao Dingcheng would not come here. She asked the servants to heat the food on the table. After eating something, she happily washed up and went to bed. She put the gold bracelet rewarded by Princess Lin'an beside her pillow.
.
This is worth my money...
Before going to sleep, she moved her ears and heard the sound of the person hiding in the dark leaving. She didn't care and continued to sleep soundly.
In Jingluan Courtyard, Princess Lin'an, who had returned to her former appearance, had her long hair loose and was wearing a luxurious dress, lazily leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, with a man in black kneeling below her.
"Eat, wash, and sleep with the bracelet?" Princess Lin'an raised her eyebrows slightly: "She is really big-hearted...there is nothing special about her?"
The man in black below thought for a while and then said respectfully: "Going back to Your Highness, the only special thing is that Aunt Sheng attaches great importance to His Highness's reward and sleeps with it under her pillow."
Princess Lin'an fell into silence. After a moment, she raised her hand and the man in black suddenly disappeared.
Princess Lin'an leaned there quietly, her eyes filled with confusion.
Do you really value the princess's reward, or is it just because... it's gold?
Once, when she and she lived in the cold palace, she also stole a lot of things. Her favorite thing was gold and jade... and she kept it on her bedside every day to enjoy it.
After she left, the box was still buried under the wintersweet tree in Leng Palace... So, is there really such a coincidence in the world?
Two people, not only their demeanor, words and deeds, but also their greed for money are exactly the same?
So, is she really back?
The huanghuali handrail under Princess Lin'an's hand suddenly turned into crumbs and scattered... The stunning beauty suddenly came back to her senses, with a cold flash in her eyes.
If it was really her, then after thirteen years, had she just come back, or had she... been there all along, but had just completely forgotten about the person in the cold palace?
Looking down at the faded sachet in her hand, Princess Lin'an saw that man smiling again.
That day was the winter solstice, and everyone in the palace was making sachets. Then she stole a bunch of sachets from other palaces and came back very grandly: "Choose whatever you want, we Xiaoyu must have what others have..."
"fraud!"
Princess Lin'an uttered two cool words.
…………
Early the next morning, Sheng Nuan was awakened by her personal maid. After all, on her first day in the house, she had to serve tea to her mistress, Princess Lin'an, early.
Xiao Dingcheng left Feixu Courtyard refreshed and walked towards Tangnuanyuan, looking like he attached great importance to Sheng Nuan.
As the male protagonist, Xiao Dingcheng's appearance is naturally passable. He is dressed in a blue brocade robe, has a golden crown to tie his hair, and has handsome facial features, sword eyebrows and starry eyes. He is unruly and noble.
He pushed the door open and went in. The servants immediately saluted, and then Xiao Dingcheng saw a figure running out happily from inside.
"Husband..."
Sheng Nuan wore a goose-yellow gauze skirt. After a good night's sleep, her skin became more and more like cream. When she smiled, her eyes were curved and there were shallow pear dimples at the corners of her lips. She was very beautiful and delicate.
Xiao Dingcheng was caught off guard and was distracted, and then he realized what she was calling her.
He smiled lightly and said: "Nuan Nuan, you must understand the rules in the house in the future and pay attention to your address..."
A concubine is not qualified to be called "husband", especially if the head wife is still a princess.
Xiao Dingcheng just reminded him casually, but as soon as he finished speaking, the bright-eyed little woman who had just smiled at him suddenly froze, her eyes dimmed, and then she quickly squeezed out a smile.
"I know. I just want to know that this is my first day of marriage. I just want to secretly experience the feeling of an ordinary bride getting married. I...oh no, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Looking at Sheng Nuan who was forcing a smile, Xiao Dingcheng suddenly felt that he had gone too far for no reason.
She had just entered the mansion yesterday, and she was summoned by the princess on the first night. She didn't know what she had to endure. So early in the morning, it didn't seem like a big deal to call her "husband" when no one was around... After all, she was his woman, too.
Don't be too harsh.
Therefore, seeing Sheng Nuan's well-behaved and docile appearance, Xiao Dingcheng felt kindhearted and said, "Forget it, it's not a big deal. You can call me 'husband' when there are no other people around."
After all, he can't give her anything else except this title.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the eyes of the little woman opposite him suddenly brighten up, and she happily came over and hugged his arm: "Husband, you are so kind."
Sheng Nuan smiled on her face, but in her heart she said: Yue...
No man would have a bad attitude towards a beautiful and well-behaved woman. Xiao Dingcheng touched Sheng Nuan's head as if comforting a docile little pet, and then asked her casually: "Last night, were you at the princess's house?"
……how?"
Sheng Nuan's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is so kind. She let me soak in the hot springs together, and then rewarded me."
As she spoke, she waved the box containing the bracelet in front of Xiao Dingcheng's eyes as if to show off.
Xiao Dingcheng was really surprised this time.
Neither of them was willing to marry Princess Lin'an to him, so they kept away from each other... What outsiders didn't know was that they had never even consummated their marriage.
On the wedding day, he originally wanted to fulfill his duties as the consort, but was kicked out of bed by Princess Lin'an... He was not a woman he liked at first, and Xiao Dingcheng never entered Princess Lin'an's bedroom from then on.
But even though he rarely got along with her, he knew that the golden girl was not an easy person to get along with.
She wanted to target his concubine not because she really cared about him, but just for her own face as a princess. Therefore, even if it was just a show, Princess Lin'an should not let Sheng Nuan go so easily.
But nothing happened to Sheng Nuan, and there was even a reward?
