I was unaware of Ling Zhiya's specific plans, secretly speculating that he must be worried about me. After all, who would trust a woman who appeared out of nowhere and lacked any backbone?
However, after I completed the wedding ceremony with Little Prince, I still heard no signs of unrest. A chill ran through me as I pondered, could it be that Ling Zhiya had sold me out?
The Matchmaker led me into the bridal chamber, and Little Prince leaned in close, his breath warm against my ear as he said flirtatiously, "Once I'm done with my socializing, I'll take good care of you, Wife. Don't be too impatient waiting for me."
With that, he left a kiss on my hand. Fear gripped my heart, and I couldn't help but tremble.
Inside the bridal chamber, the silence from the front hall made me restless.
To protect my virtue that I might soon lose, I racked my brain to come up with various escape plans.
Climbing out the window? But there were guards stationed outside.
The front door? There were guards there too.
What if I knocked out the Matchmaker and impersonated her? But I feared a single blow wouldn’t be enough to knock her out.
Time slipped away slowly as I wrestled with these thoughts when Little Prince staggered in, swaying slightly.
He was here!!
My blood rushed to my head as I wondered if I was about to submit to him for the sake of establishing achievements.
I watched him warily, but he gazed at me with a drunken expression and said, "Wife, you lifted your veil yourself. Are you unable to wait any longer?"
I couldn't help but twitch at the corners of my mouth.
Little Prince brought a candlestick closer to examine me more closely, then his face showed surprise. "Oh? Wasn't it said that the Princess of Northern County is stunningly beautiful? How come you look like this?"
Internally, I cursed: Damn it!
But on the surface, I forced a smile and replied, "Your Highness, it's all just rumors; this is how I truly look."
"It can't really be called a ghostly appearance; it just resembles some of the maids in my palace."
He didn't seem disappointed at all, tugging at his loose red robe. "No matter, I can accept it. Wife, come here."
He lunged forward suddenly, and I nimbly slipped away from under his arm, pressing myself against the door.
I could see he was drunk, swaying as he said, "Wife is shy, haha, I like that."
I took a good look at this Little Prince and suddenly had an epiphany. "Ling Zhiya, you're pretending. You're overdoing it."
I stepped forward boldly, cupping his face with both hands, tearing and pulling at him, determined to uncover the human skin mask on his face.
But fate was not on my side; I couldn't peel it off... I felt a surge of frustration and tears welled up in my eyes. The Little Prince seized my hand. "Wife knows about Ling Zhiya too? This group of Rebel Party members infiltrated the guests to attempt to assassinate me. Do you think I'm a Fool? I've long had Heavenly Net waiting for them."
My heart sank at his words, and I forgot about whether he was being frivolous with me as I hurriedly asked, "What did you do to them?"
After spending several days with them, I had developed some feelings for them. Besides, although Ling Zhiya was cunning, he was still a very good man.
I truly hoped nothing would happen to him.
Cough, cough, I admit I have a weakness for cunning types.
"They killed several Court Ministers; naturally, I won't let them off easily."
The Little Prince leaned closer to me, his breath warm against my ear as he spoke wickedly. "It's a pity that Ling Zhiya got away. But he's seriously injured and has been hit by Soul-Dispersing Powder. Hmph, even if he ran away, he won't survive. He's probably trying to force out the poison in a nearby river without considering how difficult it is to extract my exclusive poison. By tomorrow morning, you can bet there will be a corpse in that river."
Dead!!
I felt as if struck by lightning, frozen in place as tears threatened to spill from my eyes.
"Wife." The Little Prince pouted and leaned closer. "A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold."
Before I could react, his lips pressed against mine.
My eyes nearly popped out. Jesus, this was my First Kiss.
The intoxicating scent from him made me cough, and in the moment I opened my mouth, his tongue slipped in as he murmured, "So adorable..."
I was definitely not lost in the moment; how could I be tempted by beauty when our Grand Leader's life was uncertain?
I pushed against him with all my strength, but he held me tightly, clearly intending to take things further.
With gritted teeth, I slapped his forehead hard. I swear I didn't use any internal power; I had none. Yet somehow, my slap knocked him out cold.
"Your Highness? Your Highness?"
The only response was a soft snoring sound.
The sleeping Little Prince had a certain charm to him.
Suddenly, I thought that this devilishly handsome type wasn't so bad after all.
I searched his body and found a token, then boldly walked outside. When I encountered the guards, they all respectfully called out, "Young Consort!" since I was wearing bridal attire.
I said, "The Little Prince is drunk and sleeping; please do not disturb him. I'm going to handle some matters for His Highness, so keep your mouths shut. He doesn't want anyone to know."
