Chapter 34: Stay Over?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Did she sneak into his room in the middle of the night just to set off firecrackers in front of his bed?

In the drifting pink smoke, Nangong Mo saw the little woman covering her face and laughing hysterically. No matter how he looked at it, she looked like a little fox who had done something bad!

“Lin Wanyue, have you become bolder?”

Yun Ran blinked in surprise. No way? She covered it very tightly! She didn’t laugh out loud!

“Heh… I smell your fragrance.”

Was he born in the year of the dog? How could that be?

“Idiot, don’t you know that blind people have the sharpest noses?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

You’re the idiot! Even an idiot is cuter than a black-hearted man like you! Hmph!

“Your Highness, you might not know this, but I couldn’t sleep and went out to admire the moon just now. Suddenly, I saw a black shadow coming towards your courtyard. I was worried that he would harm you, so I quickly chased after him.”

In the darkness, the man sneered and said in a deep voice, “Are you chasing after him just to set off firecrackers in my room?”

“Uh! How could I! That was purely an accident. I accidentally lit it when I was looking for the man in black…”

“Hah!”

“Where’s the man in black? Did you find him?”

Stupid woman! She doesn’t speak a word of truth!

The shadow guards, who had been hiding far away to give the two of them enough space, rushed in to check the situation after hearing the earth-shattering string of firecrackers.

Then they saw their master surrounded by pink smoke, as if in a peach blossom paradise…

A few petals fell from his black hair, on his clothes, on the bed, countless petals…

However, his handsome face was dark as he stared at the Consort as if he would go over and eat her up in the next moment…

The shadow guards lowered their heads and looked down. “Your Highness, we heard the commotion… Are you alright?”

Yun Ran seized the opportunity. “Brother guards, you came at the right time. A black shadow sneaked into the prince’s room with ill intentions, but I scared him away. He went in that direction. I’ll go after him first. Take care of the prince.”

Without giving the shadow guards time to react, she ran away.

The shadow guards watched as the figure floated fifty meters away in the blink of an eye. A drop of cold sweat rolled down from the corner of their eyes. They had the same in their minds: Consort, are you sure the shadowy figure you speak of is not yourself?

Nangong Mo narrowed his black eyes and looked out of the window. Damn woman! Could it be that the rabbit had become a spirit? She escaped so quickly! Others cultivated Qinggong, but she must have cultivated the Divine Escape Technique!

Shadow Guard No. 1 braced himself and took a step forward. “Your Highness, please, please move. I’ll tidy up the bed…”

The man narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze over. Shadow Guard No. 1’s heart trembled. “Your Highness, I’ve failed in my duty. Next time, I’ll definitely check carefully what the Consort brings in…”

Yun Ran ran all the way back to her courtyard. After entering the house, she locked the door in case Nangong Mo wanted to take revenge.

But she was still worried.

She found another sack and carefully fiddled with it for a while. She opened the bag with wire and hung it upside down above the door.

Well, as soon as someone broke down the door, the sack would fall and trap him.

Then, she did the same to the window before going to sleep.

She woke up naturally and felt refreshed. Even her mood was exceptionally good.

“Princess Consort, are you awake? Someone from the palace sent a message that you and His Highness are going to the palace today.”

Ying Yue’s voice came from the doorway. Yun Ran called back to her, dressed as quickly as she could, and went to open the door.

And then…

Well, there was nothing after that…

Yun Ran was in the sack, while her heart was in disarray in the wind.

How could she have forgotten?

“Consort!”

Ying Yue was stunned for a moment. She quickly put down the basin in her hand and rushed forward to save Yun Ran from the sack. She looked concerned and a little puzzled.

“Princess Consort, are you alright? Why would a sack fall out of nowhere…”

“Ying Yue, I’m fine. Actually, that sack…”

She had put it up herself…

However, when Yun Ran looked up, she saw Nangong Mo.

He sat lazily against the light then, watching her.

The clear sunlight shone on him, coating his snow-white clothes with a faint golden light. Coupled with his noble and unparalleled magnificence, he was like a god from the nine heavens who had stepped on the path of light.

However, his slightly raised lips curled into a teasing smile.

Yun Ran read the mockery and contempt in his smile!

This was too much!

It was clearly a sack that had been carefully prepared for him…

Didn’t he say that he would definitely take revenge? Why didn’t he come last night?

The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice was filled with joy. “Lin Wanyue, have you done too many shameful things that even the heavens can’t stand it anymore?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

“Your Highness, what are you talking about? How can a gentle and kind girl like me do anything wrong!”

“Really? Did you put that sack there yourself?”

For a moment, she was speechless!

“You may be stupid, but you’re not that stupid, are you?”

Yun Ran was speechless.

You’re the stupid one! You’re the stupidest in the entire mansion!

Yun Ran originally thought that the emperor wanted to summon Nangong Mo, but after she went, she realized that it was the Empress Dowager who had done so.

According to the customs of Tianchu, they should have entered the palace to meet the empress on the second day of their marriage. However, because the emperor did not like the Prince of Qin and Nangong Mo’s relationship with the empress was extremely bad, they did not enter the palace that day.

The Empress Dowager was out of Yun Ran’s expectations. She was not as fierce and stern as she had imagined. Instead, she looked kind and amiable.

Moreover, from the way she looked at Nangong Mo and the way she spoke to him, it was obvious that she doted on this grandson very much. Their relationship was also extremely good.

“Jiu Lang, you haven’t been in the palace to see Grandmother for a long time. I won’t let you go no matter what. I’ve already gotten someone to clean up the palace. You can stay in the palace for a few more days.”

When Yun Ran heard that, she wondered why he would still want to stay over.

She quickly turned to look at Nangong Mo and saw him frown. “Imperial Grandmother, I’m afraid…”

However, before he could finish, the Empress Dowager snorted and was a little unhappy. “Are you unwilling? I just want to keep Yue’er by my side to talk to me. Can’t you do that?”

“Grandmother, I didn’t mean… ”

“Hmph! I know! I’m old and useless. You all despise me. You’re not even willing to talk to me!”

Nangong Mo was speechless.

“Sigh! Since you’re so annoying, no one is willing to talk to me to relieve my boredom. What’s the point of living? I’ll just go on a hunger strike! Otherwise, you’ll find me annoying!”

Nangong Mo raised his hand and pressed between his eyebrows. He said helplessly, “Imperial Grandmother, I’ll stay.”

The Empress Dowager, who was still feeling hopeless a second ago, beamed in the next second. “That’s right, that’s right! That’s my good grandson! Hurry up and eat. Go and rest after you’re done. You’ve all had a long day.”

Nangong Mo was speechless.

Yun Ran was stunned. The Empress Dowager’s expression changed faster than a child flipping a book!

Besides, it’s not even dark yet, why should they rest…

However, Yun Ran and Nangong Mo were almost blasted to the palace by the Empress Dowager’s Aunt Hong.

“Your Highness, Princess Consort, this is your bedroom. It’s getting late. Please sleep well together.”
