However, seeing his satisfied expression, I felt a bit proud. Hmph, it seems my skills in seduction are quite impressive.
After the pleasure, I sat breathlessly on the edge of the bed, angrily putting on my clothes while secretly glaring at him. My skin was marked with warm red love bites, telling tales of the fierce battle that had just taken place. Looking at the culprit, he was already dressed neatly, smiling at me.
"Tomorrow night, This King will host a banquet for the officials and their families. Qinqin should dress up nicely and sit beside This King."
I paused in my movements, my heart pounding like a drum. What does this mean? Doesn’t this imply that the position of the princess is just around the corner?
Thinking of this, I smiled brightly in response, as if I could see countless riches and honors beckoning to me. The next day, I got up early, bathed and changed, carefully preparing myself. I styled my hair into a smooth and shiny bun, my makeup was exquisite, and my attire was splendid.
Admiring myself in the bronze mirror, I felt extremely satisfied. Qingqing accompanied me as we headed to the banquet venue. Inside the hall, there was already a lively atmosphere filled with singing and dancing; all the civil and military officials along with their families had arrived. The concubines of the prince sat properly below him.
As a special guest for tonight's banquet, I was arranged to sit beside him. Everyone's gaze turned towards me—jealousy, mockery, suspicion, envy—I remained calm and took my seat steadily. After three rounds of drinks, the prince's clear voice rang out: "Today we drink and enjoy ourselves; how about a poetry competition?"
The officials all responded enthusiastically, cheers rising one after another. I thought to myself that poetry indeed is an indispensable part of banquets. The prince nodded slightly, his gaze towards me carrying a hint of teasing: "Then This King will go first."
I was taken aback, feeling an ominous premonition. He slowly recited: " Lost You Forever."
My pupils constricted slightly; I was all too familiar with this poem, "Lost You Forever" by Li Bai.
The prince continued to recite: "The autumn cicadas cry by the golden well, a light frost makes the mat's color cold. A solitary lamp dimly lights my thoughts of despair, I roll up the curtain to gaze at the moon and sigh long. A beauty like a flower is separated by clouds."
The emotions in this poem captivated everyone present.
I stared blankly at the prince, my heart stirred with tumultuous waves. Why did he choose this poem?
As the prince finished reciting, the ministers praised his literary talent, and I found my thoughts in disarray because of his words.
He turned to me, winked, and in a voice only we could hear, said: "Consort, do you think This King is just reciting casually? This poem expresses my feelings for you."
A jolt ran through my heart; the feelings I had previously managed to conceal surged forth at that moment.
Yunhao observed the expression on my face, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
I was taken aback but quickly realized. This sentence... was an inside joke only we understood!
So... he truly is a time traveler!
Suppressing my excitement, I quietly asked, "You... are also a time traveler?"
The prince chuckled softly and continued in a voice meant only for us: "Shen Qinqin, you and this prince have shared such tender moments together?"
Boom—
My mind exploded with this revelation. The weight of his words was overwhelming, leaving me momentarily unable to process it all. Thoughts whirled in my head.
All the clues converged on someone I could never have imagined—Qin Yunhao.
This prince was actually Qin Yunhao from the modern world, my ex-boyfriend!
After the banquet ended, I deliberately intertwined my arm with Qin Yunhao's (the prince's) in front of everyone.
"Prince~" I said in a delicate voice, "My waist hurts so much. Could you please help me massage it in your chamber?"
As soon as I said this, everyone around looked at me with astonished expressions.
