Chapter 1401: Vain
"Prince!"
"Go, go, go!" Long Rui waved impatiently, deliberately keeping his voice low for fear that Zi Xia would hear.
"You were out in the cold wind all night last night and have caught a cold. You'll be in trouble if you catch cold again tonight." Long Yi advised earnestly.
"If you keep nagging, do you believe I won't punish you by making you wash all the clothes in the mansion?"
"...!"
When it came to washing clothes, Long Yi, who had a painful experience, immediately didn't dare to speak. The last time he accidentally offended his master, he washed clothes for a full month, including all the clothes in the mansion. The Prince's command delighted the servants in the mansion. They never expected that as servants, someone would help them wash clothes, experiencing the feeling of being a Master just once.
"Prince, this subordinate will take his leave."
"Hmm."
With his master refusing to listen to advice, Long Yi was powerless even if he was most worried about the master's health, so he had no choice but to walk away, turning back three times with each step.
Xuexue heard everything happening outside clearly and knew Long Rui caught a cold because of her, ultimately feeling sympathetic. She sat up, lifted the quilt, walked to the window, opened the window, and softly said: "Don't stand outside in the wind, come in."
When Long Rui heard this, his eyes brightened. Oh, his wife was finally willing to forgive him. Wonderful.
In an instant, his silhouette flickered into the room through the window.
Long Rui: "My wife."
.
Xuexue pointed to the Noble Consort Chair next to her and said, "You'll sleep here tonight."
Upon hearing this, Long Rui wailed, "Wife, wife, you're being too cruel to me."
"Cruel?"
"Yes, extremely cruel."
"When you're fooling around with other women, it's cruel to me too."
Long Rui finally understood; his wife was jealous! He quickly explained, "Wife, don't misunderstand. I was just putting on an act for the Emperor."
Xuexue truly believed Long Rui's words. Before she entered the War Prince's Mansion, she already knew how Long Rui treated the women in the mansion. In matters of love, although he seemed extremely flirtatious, he was actually quite inexperienced.
However, for the sake of appearances, Xuexue still pretended to be angry and snorted.
"Don't be angry. We've known each other for so long. Don't you understand me yet?"
"From now on, stay away from the Princess Consort. Seeing you getting along with her so well, I feel uncomfortable."
Long Rui: "That woman is so vulgar, smelling like strong rouge and face powder that nearly suffocated me. If it weren't for dealing with that old Emperor, I'd have thrown her out of the War Prince's Mansion long ago. Wife, don't be angry."
Xuexue pouted and said: "Those are all excuses. You're definitely secretly pleased."
"My wife, I've explained to you many times that woman is the Emperor's spy. To deceive the Emperor, I naturally have to deal with her first."
Xuexue nodded: "Hmm, alright, I'll temporarily believe you."
Long Rui asked pitifully: "Wife, can I not sleep on the chair tonight?"
Xuexue smiled and said: "Sure!"
As soon as Xuexue finished speaking, Long Rui exclaimed joyfully, "Great!"
Unexpectedly, Xuexue added: "You sleep in the room, and I'll sleep in the space. I haven't chatted with Xiao Taohong for a long time."
Long Rui's face fell, thinking, Wife, you really know how to crush a person's spirit, giving a candy first, then hitting with a slap.
