Chapter 96 is about seduction, isn't it?
Chapter 96 is about seduction, isn't it?
Su Yizhuo had met the hostage who was imprisoned in the palace a few times.
Every time they met, he would just keep his head down and drink, rarely interacting with the princes.
Su Yizhuo wasn't the type to enjoy making friends, so he didn't pay much attention to him.
All that is known is that he is the eldest prince of the neighboring Jin Kingdom.
He was originally the most likely candidate for crown prince, but unexpectedly, his mother's family made a mistake, and his status plummeted.
This is the third year he has been sent here, and he has never had any contact with the people of Jin Kingdom.
However, before the Lunar New Year this year, an envoy from the Kingdom of Jin came to pay a visit and requested to see their eldest prince.
This action naturally caught Su Yizhou's attention.
They sent people to investigate, but they didn't get any useful information.
The message that was gleaned was merely that the envoy, representing the King of Jin, informed the eldest prince of his mother's passing.
However, given his political acumen as a crown prince, he sensed that things were not so simple.
Therefore, before leaving, he entrusted the important task of monitoring to Su Yizhuo.
Xiao Wu also received the news that the Crown Prince was about to leave the capital and immediately relayed it to Wei Dongning.
"How much information can you find about that hostage from Jin Kingdom?" Wei Dongning paused in peeling an apple. "I don't know if this matter has anything to do with my elder brother."
“I can’t find anything. Not only that, I found that apart from information about people from Anguo, I can’t find detailed information about other countries. Even if this person lives in Anguo.”
Xiao Wu was so anxious that he kept biting his paws, wishing he could bite off all his nails.
Wei Dongning knew that Xiao Wu had done his best.
Although it was a pity, I still expressed my understanding and even made a joke to help it relax: "Your ability is amazing, you're practically a gene analyzer."
Gu Peiyan caught a glimpse of Xiao Wu's actions out of the corner of her eye, picked it up and pulled it into her arms, snatched its paw from its mouth, and gave it two firm slaps: "Don't bite my hand."
She then looked at Wei Dongning reproachfully: "The children are all being corrupted by you."
Wei Dongning cut off a small piece of apple and crunched on it: "I don't know who it was that told me not to hit children, but now I see they can be quite ruthless."
"Spoiling a child is like killing a child; children naturally need to be disciplined when they do something wrong."
Wei Dongning nodded in agreement: "You're right."
Anyway, she's not the one I feel sorry for right now.
As the sole victim, Xiao Wu cried out with a long face, "This is outrageous! What did the kitten do wrong?!"
Wei Dongning responded that she was unable to help.
"Just bear with it. It's your own fault for not objecting when he said he wanted to be your father the day you came back."
"Could you ask my dad, my own father, to grant me a time rewind?"
It wants to go back to the day Gu Peiyan brought it back, and give him a cat punch when he said he wanted to be its father.
It wants to be a noble cat master.
"Honey, I suggest you go to sleep. After all, anything can happen in dreams~" Wei Dongning finished eating a whole apple and elegantly wiped her mouth twice with a handkerchief.
It almost made poor Xiao Wu so angry that he lost his temper again.
It meowed at the two of them repeatedly.
Gu Peiyan gently scratched its chin with her dry, large hand, her heart aching even more: "Did I hurt it just now?"
"Don't worry, it didn't hit the table as hard as it did yesterday."
Yesterday, when Wei Dongning was playing with a cat toy with Xiao Wu, it suddenly stopped and its head hit the table leg.
The force was so great that Wei Dongning felt the table almost move.
The funniest part was that after Xiao Wu bumped its head, it felt embarrassed and pretended nothing had happened. It licked its fur and quickly ran away from the spot.
Xiao Fu, who witnessed everything, laughed until his stomach hurt.
Gu Peiyan couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing Wei Dongning's story.
Xiao Wu, who was already feeling very awkward, wanted to find a mouse hole to crawl into.
Making a foolish mistake isn't embarrassing; what's embarrassing is being caught making a foolish mistake and then having to reenact the scene in front of them.
Unable to find the mouse hole, Xiao Wu buried his head in Gu Peiyan's arms.
Wei Dongning flicked its rear end: "Are you planning to 'cover your face' in public?"
"Ningbao, I hereby unilaterally declare that I am breaking off all ties with you, until tomorrow morning. Tonight, you are destined to lose my adorable darling!"
"Who have you taken a fancy to? I'll personally deliver you there."
"You didn't even try to stop me?"
"Distance makes the heart grow fonder, I understand."
"How annoying!" Xiao Wu swung its big tail hard, hitting Wei Dongning's hand directly.
Gu Peiyan was annoyed by their childish behavior of "If you touch me, I'll slap you," and stuffed Xiao Wu into Qian Rong's arms: "Let Xiao Wu stay in your room tonight."
"Great!" Qianrong's eyes lit up, and he quickly picked up Xiao Wu and ran.
He looks exactly like a cat trafficker.
They were afraid that if they walked too slowly, the two of them would change their minds.
After Xiao Wu was taken away, Wei Dongning finally had some peace and quiet.
I also had enough time to think about what Xiao Wu had said.
If the matter that the hostage is investigating is related to what Wei Xiuming is investigating, how can she subtly remind Nao Nao to be careful?
Maybe Gu Peiyan knows more than she does, why don't we ask him?
Wei Dongning shifted her gaze to Gu Peiyan, and was about to speak when she froze on the spot.
"what are you doing?"
Gu Peiyan paused, glancing at her strangely: "Take off your clothes."
Wei Dongning really wanted to shout, "I know!"
However, there was a strange slutty quality to his movements as he took off his clothes.
When she took off her outer robe, she accidentally pulled down her inner garment, instantly exposing her smooth shoulders to her view.
And the Adam's apple is even more prominent because of tilting the head slightly upward.
Every aspect of him exudes an irresistible charm.
Like a peacock displaying its tail feathers, Wei Dongning found it hard not to suspect that he was trying to seduce her.
If you look closely, you can see a small mole on his collarbone that sways with his movements.
Wei Dongning inwardly berated herself for having such good eyesight.
I'd also like to condemn Gu Peiyan for not knowing how to properly undress.
If your nose bleeds later, it'll all be his fault.
Wei Dongning looked away and cleared her throat: "Put your clothes on properly."
Gu Peiyan frowned in confusion, pulling her slipped clothes back onto her shoulders: "You have something to ask me?"
"Ah... I think so." Wei Dongning scratched her head, forgetting what she was going to ask him. "I'll ask you when I remember."
The scene from just now is still stuck in her mind.
It wasn't until she was almost asleep that she remembered her question: "I heard that a hostage from the Kingdom of Jin has been living in the palace?"
"What did the Second Prince tell you today?"
"Ah, right." Wei Dongning touched her nose: "How much do you know about that proton?"
Gu Peiyan's eyes darkened, and she looked down at her: "I don't know, I only know that Jin Kingdom offered it to us as a bargaining chip."
"Okay, I thought you would know something." Wei Dongning pouted.
It's impossible not to be disappointed, but Gu Peiyan has only been an official in the court for a short time, so it's understandable that he doesn't know.
Just before going to sleep, Xiao Wu sent her another message: "The Third Prince has arranged to meet your Second Sister tomorrow."
