Do you know what happened yesterday? It was absolutely shocking!
What happened? Please tell us!
Yesterday evening, Princess Yunying invited the young elites of various prominent families to entertain the Third Prince of Great Yan. However, when the Third Prince got drunk, he unexpectedly initiated a passionate encounter with another man!
Wow, I cant believe something like that happened! Its so scandalous!
Indeed! At that moment, everyone in the room was dumbfounded. It was beyond imagination!
Who would have thought that the Third Prince, who seemed so refined, would have such preferences!
People can be deceiving, and the sea is unfathomable, haha!
As they discussed and mocked, news of this incident also reached the palace.
The Empress immediately understood the situation and felt extremely frustrated. Oh my, it must be those two troublemakers behind this! Theyve caused such chaos! This might not harm anyone physically, but its certainly unsettling.
The Empress couldnt fathom how the now-sober Third Prince would handle this situation. I hope he stays strong!
Meanwhile, the Third Prince of Great Yan had regained his sobriety and, upon learning of the incident, was filled with sorrow and rage.
Why did this happen? I truly dont have such preferences! My reputation How can I face my father after this?
Just the thought of the strange glances people would give him made the Third Prince feel too embarrassed to lift his head. He even contemplated finding a place to end his life.
Recalling his previous visit to Great Wu, which had also been disastrous, the Third Prince felt that this place was cursed and immediately wanted to leave this place of sorrow.
In the Lin residence, the Little Princess laughed uncontrollably. Sisters, you have no idea how amusing last night was! After the Third Prince took that elixir, he transformed completely. He was hugging and kissing another man endlessly!
Its so obscene! So disgusting! But its hilarious! Haha
Such a person still had the audacity to propose to me? Ugh! Haha
Everyone joined in the laughter.
Lately, there hadnt been much excitement in the capital, so this incident became the talk of the town.
After the laughter subsided, the Little Princess went to Lin Beifans room, raised her head, and said sincerely, Lin Beifan, thank you for helping me get revenge.
Lin Beifan was a bit annoyed as he patted the Little Princesss flushed cheek and said, Little Princess, is a simple thank you all you have to say? Do you realize the risks I took for you?
The Little Princess looked a bit uneasy. She admitted that what they did was rather underhanded, and Lin Beifan had taken great risks.
Ill share half of my meat with you from now on, the Little Princess earnestly promised.
Lin Beifan grew even more irritated. The meat you eat is all hunted by me!
Ill share half of my wine with you, the Little Princess said, her heart aching.
Lin Beifan was even more exasperated. The wine is mine!
In that case The Little Princess said playfully, Ill give myself to you as compensation. How about that?
Lin Beifan was so infuriated that he trembled. How can you repay kindness with enmity?
Fine, I wont play with you anymore! Hmph! The Little Princess, in a huff, turned and left.
Lin Beifan went back to his study to organize some documents.
At that moment, Li Shi Shi walked in gracefully, her tone slightly reproachful. Husband, even though your words to the Little Princess were meant as a joke, they carried some weight. You should know that the Little Princess has intentions
Lin Beifan sighed deeply. Im well aware. But, as my wife, you also know that my actions in Great Wu are unacceptable. Ill have to leave here eventually. The Little Princess has a special status; if shes associated with me, how will she fare in the future?
Li Shi Shi also cleared her throat and said hesitantly, Thats true! She is the Little Princess of Great Wu, favored by the Empress, holding immense influence. And we are ultimately not of the same status.
So, I should maintain a certain distance to avoid misunderstanding, Lin Beifan sighed.
In reality, Lin Beifan had always had a fondness for the Little Princess. She was like a little girlfriend to him, often accompanying him in mischief and playfulness, with a hint of innocence. Playing with the Little Princess brought him great joy and relaxation.
However, their differences in status created a barrier between them. If their relationship were to be exposed, it would inevitably lead to complications.
Well, for now, I shouldnt dwell on that.
Lin Beifan shook his head, picked up the documents in his hand, and spoke softly to Li Shi Shi, Shi Shi, Her Majesty has assigned me an urgent task. I wont be able to return tonight. Please take care at home.'
Go ahead, Husband, duty calls! Li Shi Shi replied quickly.
The two embraced for a moment, and then Lin Beifan hurriedly left the Lin residence for the palace.
Not long after, the Little Princess returned after making a round, looking left and right, and asked, Wheres that scoundrel? Why isnt he here?
Li Shi Shi walked over and smiled, Little Princess, my Husband has urgent matters to attend to and wont be able to come tonight.
Oh, I see. Thats not good! The Little Princess pouted unhappily.
Seeing the Little Princesss insincere expression, Li Shi Shi secretly chuckled, but the thought of their incompatible statuses could only lead to a sigh.
Later in the evening, a lavish dinner was prepared, and everyone was invited to partake. Bring more fine wine with eight legs! the Little Princess exclaimed.
Little Princess
I want to drink more of it while hes not here, to annoy him! The Little Princess gritted her teeth.
As the night went on, the Little Princess drank more wine and became somewhat tipsy. Li Shi Shi was very concerned. Shes had too much to drink; it seems she wont make it through the night. Xiao Cui, go prepare a room for her to rest in, and Dali, inform the Princes residence so they can be at ease.
Yes, Mistress! They both responded.
Then, Li Shi Shi and Mo Rushuang helped the tipsy Little Princess to the prepared room for her to rest.
At this moment, the Little Princess became slightly more sober. Where are we going?
Little Princess, youre drunk. Were taking you to a guest room to rest, Li Shi Shi explained.
Oh I see. No need for you to help; I can do it myself! The Little Princess insisted, pushing away the two of them. However, in her slightly wobbly state, she ended up entering a luxurious room and crawled onto the bed.
Li Shi Shi exclaimed, Little Princess, be careful! This is my Husband bed!
Lin Beifans? Well, then Ill sleep here! I feel safe when hes around The Little Princess curled up on the bed, looking like a sleeping kitten, very obedient.
Li Shi Shi and Mo Rushuang exchanged glances. What should we do?
Li Shi Shi furrowed her brows slightly, then unfolded a plan. Since my husband is not here, it shouldnt be a problem. Tonight, Ill sleep here to take care of the Little Princess.
That sounds good. Thank you, Sister Shi Shi! Mo Rushuang nodded.
Meanwhile, Lin Beifan was working late in the palace when he suddenly sneezed twice. Strange, with my constitution, how am I catching a cold? He shook his head, didnt dwell on it, and continued working.
The night quickly passed.
At the break of dawn, a luxurious carriage arrived at the front of the Lin residence. A middle-aged man, dressed in splendid attire with a tall and imposing stature, stepped down from the carriage. He instructed those around him, Knock on the door! After all, this is the Prime Ministers residence. Be polite!
Yes, Your Highness!
Two knocks sounded, and shortly after, Dali opened the door and, upon seeing the newcomer, was greatly surprised. Its Prince Yunqing who has arrived! Humble servant pays respects to Your Highness!
This person was the Little Princesss father and also the most powerful figure in the court, the Prince of Yunqing, who was highly trusted by the Empress.
The middle-aged man nodded slightly, revealing a hint of indulgent smile, and said, I heard my little daughter got drunk here and couldnt leave. So, I came to pick her up on my way!
Your Highness, please come inside. Ill inform her, Dali replied.
Very well, go ahead, Ill follow, said the Prince.
Not long after, the Little Princess was awakened and, with some remnants of alcohol, stumbled her way out. Father, why are you here?
Good girl, I heard you got drunk here and couldnt leave, so I came to pick you up! Prince Yunqing extended his massive palm and affectionately patted his daughters head, a hint of reproach in his tone. My dear daughter, you reek of alcohol. How much did you drink yesterday?
The Little Princess, still groggy and drowsy, mumbled, I drank a lot, I lost count.
Prince Yunqing wanted to scold her, but when he saw how obedient his daughter looked, he couldnt bring himself to reprimand her. He could only advise, Yunying, you are a young lady and a member of the royal family. You should be more reserved in the future and not drink so much, do you understand?
The Little Princess, still groggy, replied, Father, I understand.
Good, as long as you understand. Prince Yunqing continued to stroke his daughters head and asked, Yunying, did you sleep well last night?
The Little Princess, still half-asleep, said, I slept very well!
Thats good, Prince Yunqing said with satisfaction. Youve always been particular about your sleep. You cant sleep well unless youre in your own bed. Father was worried you wouldnt sleep well Where did you sleep last night?
The Little Princess, still groggy, nodded and said, That.
Prince Yunqings face suddenly froze. He lowered his head, nervous, and asked, Yunying, what did you just say? Did you say you slept in Lin Beifans bed?
The Little Princess, still half-asleep, nodded, Yes.
Prince Yunqings mindset shattered instantly! His beloved daughter, whom he had cherished for over a decade, had slept in Lin Beifans bed?
Slept in a mans bed?
Could it be that his precious daughter had already
Prince Yunqings heart leaped to his throat, and he anxiously asked, Yunying, did he do anything to you?
Which he? The Little Princess, in a drowsy state, asked. Lin Beifan, Prince Yunqing clarified.
He The Little Princess recalled the events from the previous night and huffed, Hes a scoundrel. I dont want to have anything to do with him!
Hes a scoundrel?
Now, the evidence was irrefutable! Prince Yunqing was seething with anger. His precious daughter, whom he had painstakingly raised, had been deceived by Lin Beifan, this despicable beast!
His precious daughter was still a young maiden! Her status was noble, as she was the princess of a nation!
To be involved in such a scandalous affair
There is a limit to patience, and no father could tolerate this!
Prince Yunqing shouted in fury, Lin Beifan, you despicable beast, come out here!!!
