Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Yan Xiaoxi wanted to reject him, but she swallowed her words back in her mouth. She wanted to see what Nangong Zhen wanted to do. In any case, she had no fear when it came down to it.

After bidding farewell to Nangong Xiao and Imperial Concubine Xiao, Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Zhen left the palace.

"Your majesty, this was picked up on the ground just now." The guard handed a scented sachet to Nangong Xiao.

Nangong Xiao received it and opened the scented sachet. There was a white piece of paper inside, with a picture of a young girl in her prime. She had a round oval face and her eyes were pitch black. Her cheeks were flushed red. Her body exuded a youthful and lively aura.

Her face was sparkling, her skin was snow-white, her eyebrows were pale, and her temperament was extraordinary.

Although he did not know the girl in the painting, she gave off a feeling of familiarity. She looked very similar to his good brother Long Xuanchen, and regardless of her appearance or temperament, it was easy to guess that there was an unusual relationship between the two of them.

Tonight in the treasury, other than him and Imperial Concubine Xiao, there was only Nangong Zhen and Yan Xiaoxi left. It was easy to guess the origins of the portrait.

Things that she could bring with her at any time must be very important to her.

Immediately, Nangong Lin thought of something.

Hopefully, everything was not as he thought, or else the consequences would truly be unpredictable.

"Your majesty." Imperial Concubine Xiao called the absent-minded Nangong Xiao.

"Right." Nangong Xiao agreed as she glanced at Imperial Concubine Xiao.

Imperial Concubine Xiao looked at Nangong Xiao who had regained her composure and could not help but take a few more glances at the woman on the paper. With her intuition, she knew that this woman was definitely not simple.

She had to be careful, to prevent, to ensure her own status.

Nangong Xiao placed the paper back into the scented sachet and placed it back into her sleeve. Then, she left the treasury with Imperial Concubine Xiao.

The street was empty at night.

Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Zhen walked forward side by side.

"Xi Er." Nangong Zhen raised the lantern and shouted.

Xi Er? Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Zhen in astonishment. Since when did they become so intimate?

Hadn't he always been against her?

What was this person trying to do?

"The crown prince can just call me Prince Lin's Mansion." Yan Xiaoxi did not appreciate Nangong Zhen's kindness.

Nangong Zhen also did not mind. "What does Royal Brother think of Royal Brother does he do to you?"

"Very good." Yan Xiaoxi blurted out.

"Then what do you think of this crown prince?" Nangong Zhen continued asking.

His words caused Yan Xiaoxi to be stunned. She didn't understand what Nangong Zhen meant. What did it have to do with her?

"This crown prince is saying, who do you like more, royal brother or Crown Princess Lin?" Nangong Zhen examined Yan Xiaoxi's body with a probing gaze.

Yan Xiaoxi smiled. She suddenly realized why Nangong Zhen was speaking up for her and why he was comparing her to Nangong Lin. It was because he wanted to curry favor with her.

As for the reason, she didn't know.

However, Yan Xiaoxi was feeling very happy and proud at the same time.

So it turned out that she had quite the charm. Other than capturing Nangong Lin's heart, she could also make the always arrogant Crown Prince pay attention to her.

"Of course it's the Crown Prince, how could little Lin Lin compare to the Crown Prince." Yan Xiaoxi's playful nature flared up, and her ability to fool others had always been pretty good.

Nangong Zhen raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Xiaoxi in astonishment. He did not expect to hear those words from her.

Originally, he had no interest in a woman like Yan Xiaoxi with such a large chest and no brain. However, a normal and average girl like her was actually able to cause Nangong Lin to care so much about her. He wanted to see what kind of magic Yan Xiaoxi had that made his brother protect her time and time again.

Curiosity was only one aspect of it. Nangong Zhen wanted to shock Nangong Lin with Yan Xiaoxi's determination.

However, what he did not know was that Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi had already fallen deeply in love with each other.

"Really? Then, does Princess Lin like this crown prince more?" Nangong Zhen continued asking.

"How could that be? His Highness the Crown Prince called me Princess Lin just now. As Princess Lin, I naturally prefer little Linlin." Yan Xiaoxi smiled as she looked at Nangong Zhen with her big, watery eyes.

Nangong Zhen was stunned. After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "Princess Lin is just a form of address. Just now, Xi'er said she likes this crown prince very much."

"Yeah." Yan Xiaoxi nodded and thought to herself, I really like you, I really like your stupidity.

"Then, if, this crown prince says that I like Xi Er as well." On the other hand, Nangong Zhen straightened his back. After he finished paving the way, he went straight to the point without any hesitation.

Yan Xiaoxi's crafty eyes darted around as the corners of her mouth hooked up into a strange arc.

She pretended to cry out in surprise and said, "Really? Xi Er likes the crown prince too? "

"That's good. How about Xi Er becomes this crown prince's secondary concubine?" Nangong Zhen acted like he was coaxing a child, coaxing Yan Xiaoxi into falling for it.

He thought that Yan Xiaoxi was naturally gullible, but he didn't realize that her innocence was just a disguise.

"Which one is better, Princess Lin or the crown prince's concubine?" Yan Xiaoxi's clear gaze landed on Nangong Zhen as she calmly awaited his answer.

Now that the male lead, Nangong Zhen, had appeared. Logically speaking, the position of the Crown Prince should be better than that of the Crown Prince, while Princess Lin was the proper one and the secondary one was the concubine.

"Of course it's the secondary concubine. Once this crown prince becomes the emperor, the secondary concubine will become the imperial concubine."

"Oh, so it's like that, ah? Xi Er doesn't want to stay in the palace anymore, it's like being stuck in a canary cage, it's really suffocating."

"Xi Er, don't forget. There's a lot of good food in there. " After experiencing so many things, Nangong Zhen also understood Yan Xiaoxi's weakness.

Yan Xiaoxi remained indifferent as she heard this. She replied, "I thought the crown prince was pretty good. Now that he's going to become the emperor in the future, Xi Er suddenly doesn't like you anymore."

Why? Nangong Zhen did not ask.

This woman was simply too bizarre and unpredictable; he was completely unable to hold onto her.

"Xi Er really doesn't want to live in the palace. Maybe she can become an empress in the future." Nangong Zhen did not believe that there was still a woman in this world who did not have any greed for the Phoenix-Dragon.

Nangong Zhen thought that as long as it was a woman, everyone would want to curry favor with him. They wanted to curry favor with him in order to obtain his pity.

Yan Xiaoxi happened to be one of his most important chess pieces.

"I don't like the empress any more. After hearing the crown prince's words, I seem to think that Princess Lin's position suits me." How could Yan Xiaoxi not understand Nangong Zhen's intentions?

Did she, Yan Xiaoxi, seem like such a gullible person?

His master had said that the empress was the most sorrowful woman in the world. She had personally witnessed the emperor strengthen his harem and win his song every night, but there was nothing she could do. She could only wait in an empty room.

"You …" Nangong Zhen was a little angry. He felt as if he had been tricked by Yan Xiaoxi. However, looking at her innocent eyes, it seemed like she was not messing with him. Everything was happening from her heart.
