The soft beauty is very good at flirting, and the soul of the ascetic prince is floating

Chapter 31 A moment of touching

"Don't be nervous. I just called you here because you have done a good job these days and I want to reward you."

Gu Wanyu glanced at her and played with the flower branches she had pruned half a day ago.
  Lin Sulan grinned, as if she wanted to laugh, but then she seemed to think of something, and quickly covered her mouth.

"This is a slave's duty. I don't dare to praise you, Mrs. Lao."

"If you have merit, you should be rewarded. This is the rule of our government. There is no need to be humble. Xiaohuan, take the plain silver hairpin from my dowry and give it to Su Lan."

That hairpin was bought last time I left the house. It’s not worth it.
  But this kind of reward is not about money per se, but about the dignity that the master values.
  Lin Sulan's eyebrows were filled with joy, and she held the hairpin tightly in her hand, "Thank you, Madam."

Eyes rolling, Xiao Huan and Zhu'er in the room also had smiles on their faces, as if they were also happy for her.
  Her eyes became colder, but her smile was still gentle, "It doesn't matter, go down. As long as you do good things, you will be rewarded in the future."

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Lin Sulan's footsteps faded away, and she chatted with Guo'er at the door.

She heard it clearly in the room,
  He picked up the tea cup and secretly sneered,
  This month I have only been busy training Chen Shenzhen, but I have neglected the lively thinker next to me.

After all, Xiaohuan had been serving her for many years. Xu was vaguely aware of her displeasure, and her expression became much more restrained. She didn't mention Lin Sulan's name again until she went to bed.

Only Zhu'er still said good things about Lin Sulan from time to time.

After Zhu'er mentioned her again,
  Gu Wanyu directly raised her lips and smiled: "It's rare for you to speak for her like this. It shows that she is really good. Unexpectedly, Xiaohuan saw it wrong that day."

Xiaohuan looked at her smiling eyes, his heart tightened for no reason, and he smiled stiffly without making a sound.

Zhu'er was completely unaware of the strange atmosphere at this moment. When she heard her say this, she thought she was sincerely complimenting her and nodded hurriedly.
  "My servant didn't expect it, but it was only after seeing her with cold eyes these past few days that she was diligent, dedicated to the Lord, and kind and respectful that she became more acquainted with her."

The smile on Gu Wanyu's lips deepened, and she glanced at Zhu'er meaningfully, "That's it."

I thought Zhuer was cautious, but she was wrong.

After all, it was Nanny Lin who came with them who knew the details of their group.

There must be no one in this mansion who doesn't praise Lin Sulan.

She wanted to see what the aunt and nephew wanted to do.

There was no trace of dissatisfaction on his face, and he even followed Zhu'er and complimented her a few more times before asking them to step back.
  Before leaving, he specifically glanced at Xiaohuan. Seeing that she understood what he meant, he fell asleep peacefully.

In the middle of the night, when I was groggy, I suddenly felt a cool breeze coming in from the gap between the bed tent and the brocade quilt.

Strangely, she remembered asking Xiaohuan to close the doors and windows tightly before going to bed.
  how?

She woke up suddenly,
  Sure enough, Song Jingzhang's vague figure outside the bed tent came into view.

"Master." She stood up quickly and was about to get out of bed to salute.

He was stopped by Song Jingzhang, "No need."

He stopped obediently, opened the bed curtain, and knelt down beside the bed.

Song Jingzhang glanced at her sideways,
  He took out a plain blue jade bottle from his pocket and threw it over.
  She caught it quickly,
  This is?

"Your antidote." Song Jingzhang said softly.

Gu Wanyu was slightly startled.
  She was touched for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

"I'd like to thank you for your troubles. I'm very grateful. I really have nothing to repay. I would like to..." "Would you like to pledge yourself to me? Or do you want to be a cow or a horse?"

Song Jingzhang's sudden humor made her stunned, and she swallowed her words.
  "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Another cold and deep voice came, and she came back to her senses instantly.

His expression remained unchanged, and he arched his eyebrows at him, "I didn't expect that I would say this."

Song Jingzhang laughed and said,
  He had heard this kind of thing too many times, but he just subconsciously replied.

The tables and chairs made a scraping sound against the bluestone,
  Song Jingzhang stepped in front of her,

"Master?" She looked up following his movements, her eyes flashing with emotion.

Through the moonlight, she took the initiative to hug his waist,

Perhaps because he had just walked outside, a slight chill came through his body.
  Through the action of snuggling, the two people's body temperatures entangled,
  His hand lightly touched her face,

"It doesn't have to be like this. Since you follow me and are obedient, I naturally can't bear to see you go to waste because of these dirty things."

The tears in her eyes burst suddenly,

"I treat my concubine with kindness and kindness." His voice was choked with sobs and full of sincerity.
  Song Jingzhang felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction in his heart.
  What happened after that was a matter of course,
  After pestering him fiercely, Gu Wanyu relaxed his tense spirit and fell into a deep sleep.
  Almost the moment she closed her eyes,
  Song Jingzhang's eyes, which were originally closed, were opened in vain.

He didn't move, just stared at the pattern above the bed tent.
  Regarding this foreign room, he knew very clearly the reason why he kept her.

The fun he had in bed in the past really made him, who was accustomed to those rigid ladies all day long, never want to leave.
  But today, he suddenly discovered another different side of this outer room.
  Enthusiastic, proactive, and desperate, yet filled with an indescribable sense of devotion and full dependence.

It is as if the believer has seen his god and does not ask for favors, but gives everything he can afford, just so that he can have a moment of happiness.
  Between their lips and teeth, the tears she shed were engraved on his bones like a brand,

Because he found the antidote for her?

Saved her life?
  Song Jingzhang was never a kind-hearted person. In the past, whether he was polite and virtuous, or cautious and polite,

All to enable those people to do better things for him,

His identity is destined to be respected by his subordinates, and his wives are destined to please him for various purposes after his death.
  Where is the true love in the royal family?
  This is the first time I have felt such pure emotion and dependence on a woman.

But at the beginning, he was just thinking that he didn't want to see a woman who was so rare to be obedient and agreeable just go away like this.

Besides, finding an antidote is just a casual matter.
  Unexpectedly, what she brought to him was far more than what he did for her, much more than he imagined.
  perhaps,

Is it okay to go along with it occasionally to make a woman happy?

This was Song Jingzhang's last sudden thought before going to bed.

On the second day, when the sky was bright,
  Gu Wanyu slowly got up from the bed.
  Last night I consumed more energy than in previous days.
  I fell asleep unintentionally.

Smelling the fresh fragrance of flowers all over her body, she knew that Song Jingzhang had cleaned her afterward.

She slightly raised the corners of her lips and played with the plain blue jade bottle beside her pillow.
  After a while, he suddenly raised his voice: "Xiaohuan,"

　Mastered the skill of sleeping anytime and anywhere,
  　　I wrote a thousand words while working today. I played some games when I came back from get off work. I plan to start coding at nine o'clock. I think it's pretty good. I'll start early and finish early today.
  　　As a result, I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes, it was almost 11 o'clock...

　　Sure enough, I can't escape the fate of life and death every day...
