, and couldn't help but be slightly startled. A powerful sense of shame accompanied the feeling.The Crown Prince looked at the snow-white mass, alluringly tempting. Only some light scratches marred i...The maidservant who had been standing nearby upon hearing this, her face turned ashen, her legs went weak, and she hurriedly knelt down saying, "Your Highness, spare my life!"

Her face was etched with despair.

The prince said lightly, "Let it drag on."

"If Your Highness is angry, then blame me. " Ning Shu's shackles jingled as he spoke, his voice unwavering: "It was I who told her to open the window. If Your Highness is displeased, then drag me down with you."

The prince's cool eyes looked over upon hearing this, his brows and eyes filled with an extremely sinister expression: "Is Ning'er pleading for her"

Ning Shu said softly, "I'm just stating the facts. She angered the prince, and he wanted to have her dragged away. Now that I am the one who is at fault, shouldn't the prince punish me"

He didn't know what would happen to the maidservant after she was dragged away, but it couldn't possibly be good.

Ning Shu regretted a little. He just wanted to see the sunlight outside, but now he had implicated others.

His eyes swept over, and he spoke, "Your Highness, if you truly wish to punish this servant, then punish me along with him."

The palace was extremely quiet.

Everyone held their breath, and they all felt a chill for the Crown Princess's words. Although they served here, the Crown Princess had a good temper and she looked very beautiful. However, when she was with the Crown Prince, she didn't speak much either.

At night, she lay hidden beneath the prince.

During the day, I would just sit there for an entire day.

Just like being completely subservient to the prince.

Although the Crown Prince has to wait a year after his filial piety period to inherit the throne, he is practically indistinguishable from the Emperor now.

The emperor's majesty is not to be challenged by anyone. Even though the Crown Princess is highly favored, the Prince is no longer a prince.

So they all trembled with fear, lest the prince should be enraged.

Ning Shu looked unflinchingly at the crown prince. He could care less about Zhao Da's exile to the border by the crown prince; he was powerless to stop it. But this slave, this one was under his very nose. If he couldn't protect him...

Ning Shu lowered her eyes and thought to herself, that he and the Crown Prince would sooner or later... be on different paths.

The prince looked at the person with cold and sharp eyes for a long while, then said in a flat tone, "Leave."

I could hardly believe my ears and looked up in astonishment.

The Crown Prince said indifferently, "Concubine has pleaded for you, this time I will spare you."

The maidservant let out a sigh of relief, and the others followed her out, then closed the palace door.

Then the prince walked over and touched the boy's hand, soft as jade.

Then he ordered someone to come in and say, "Bring in some soft, chewy pastries."

"Yes, master," I replied. A little while later, I brought the pastries in.

The prince looked at the young man and said, "Eat."

Ning Shu looked at the handsome face opposite her, the Crown Prince appearing quite calm. But his eyes were fixed on her, making her heart flutter nervously.

A bit uneasy.

He tightened his fingers, though he didn't know what the prince intended to do, but still raised his hand and picked up the pastry.

He obediently ate on.

Ning Shu finished those pastries, and the Crown Prince wiped his lips for him before picking him up.

"Then she said, 'Ning'er, since you've eaten so much, there's no need for lunch today.'"

Ning Shu's heart tightened, she only felt herself being placed on a wide bed.

The prince leaned forward, extending a hand to undo the shirt he had only just put on today.

She lowered her eyes and said, “Since Ning'er has let this servant off the hook, then this punishment naturally is what Ning'er should have endured.”

"Do you think Gulu is right"

....

Ning Shu clutched the bedding tightly.

His eyes had begun to cloud over, hazy and broken-looking.

The young man's slender and fair feet were incredibly beautiful. A red cord was tied around his ankle, with a jade bead dangling from it. The jade bead swayed constantly, swaying along with the bed frame and causing a constant throbbing pain.

It seems like it's about to fall at any moment.

The prince leaned against the youth, biting his earlobe softly. "Do you want to see outside, Ning'er Do you yearn to go out"

"Want to escape from the lonely side."

Ning Shu clutched at his clothes, unable to form coherent words.

The Crown Prince looked at him with not a trace of a smile in his eyes. His voice was not as pleasant as it used to be, carrying a hint of youthful depth that, when whispered into one's ear, sent shivers down the spine.

Ning Shu couldn't help but slightly turn her head away.

But the crown prince chased after him, grasping the young man's face to make him look at the window. "I saw Ning'er looking outside, like a golden canary that I had let fly away."

The goldfinch, once let loose, never returned.

Ning Shu's swan neck was marred with suggestive red marks.

Especially when that alabaster skin was flushed with such a vibrant scarlet, one couldn't help but wish to die in his arms.

The prince picked the person up.

Ning Shu cried out in alarm, his brows furrowed. Held up by the prince, he said with a slight tightening of his fingers and reddened eyes, "Prince... slow down..."

The prince led him to the window.

His clothes were intact, unlike a young man's, but he wore nothing except a thin garment that barely covered him.

However, only Ning Shu knew that the crown prince appeared to be unharmed.

Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

The prince touched his slightly distended belly, where there was a hard lump.

Then, she slowly exhaled softly: "Ning'er is indeed a fine piece."

Ning Shu didn't speak, he turned his face slightly away, but his body could only lean against the prince's.

His long, jade-like legs revealed an incredibly alluring curve.

The prince opened the window.

Ning Shu immediately closed her eyes.

A light breeze brushed against his face. Ning Shu opened his eyes to find no one outside.

He parted his lips, his eyelashes trembling: "Your Highness, please let me go. I won't leave."

The Crown Prince, however, seemed to have not heard his pleas for mercy and concessions. His eyes looked outward. Holding the young man in his arms, if it weren't for the desire hidden in his eyes, one would think that his posture and demeanor were so tender and loving.

He glanced at the scenery outside and said to the young man, "Ning'er, don't you want to take a look"

Ning Shu didn't even want to look.

He was afraid that others would see him standing here with the crown prince.

The prince kissed his neck and said, "Don't you want to go out and see the world, Ning'er I'm giving you a chance. Or do you think opening just this one window is enough"

Ning Shu trembled, her body shaking: “Enough, enough… Your Highness, please spare me.”

He opened his mouth to speak.

But his eyes wouldn't look outwards.

The Crown Prince then withdrew his gaze and looked down at him, saying: "Ning'er, why aren't you looking anymore I thought you wanted to go out and see."

He recalled the scene he had just witnessed.

The young man sat on his bed, though the maidservants in the Ming Palace were calling him "His Royal Highness."

But the young boy seemed not to notice him, only staring blankly out the window.

It was as if...it were about to vanish.

like a fairy returning to the sky.

The crown prince lowered his head and took a bite out of the youth's soft flesh.

Ning Shu winced in pain.

He was then pushed by the prince towards the window. He watched as the prince leaned down and said to him, "I haven't tried this here before, Ninger, you better hold on tight, or else if you fall, I can't guarantee anything."

....

Ning Shu was huddled under the blankets.

He knew where the prince's uneasiness lay, the prince was afraid he wanted to leave.

But Ning Shu hadn't seen the outside scenery and sunlight in a long time. He just wanted to take a look today, but unexpectedly, the Crown Prince gave him a severe reprimand.

Ning Shu closed his eyes, he was a normal person, naturally unable to bear it.

He didn't know what the prince spent his energy on, he was busy all day long without end.

Ning Shu sometimes half-opened her eyes in a daze, only to find herself locked in the Prince's Hall, with a thin gold chain on her feet.

The prince asked her many times today, Ningshu almost thought she was going to die.

His clothes have been changed into clean ones.

Perhaps it was because I had grown accustomed to the prince's demands, his body, and that part of him that was unlike ordinary people.

Now Ning Shu doesn't feel like she used to, when she would be thoroughly worn out and need a very long rest.

He felt a bit abnormally ashamed of this change.

Ning Shu turned towards the window, but when he saw the afternoon sun... the same way it had shone on him and the Crown Prince by that window before, he quickly looked away.

He is a normal person, he also wants to go out for some fresh air.

I also want to see the sunshine and breathe some fresh air.

But the prince's illness had reached a point where he no longer bothered to feign it.

Ning Shu has also seen this over these days. He's gone from being initially startled to frightened, and now... he's a little used to it.

What time is it outside

Ning Shu asked the servant.

I said, "Your Highness, it is already time to start."

Ning Shu's expression was dazed, it was already evening, but he hadn't noticed at all.

He couldn't help but lower his head and look at his own stomach, thinking to himself.

If he were a woman, being watered like this day and night by the prince, she would probably be pregnant by now.

Ning Shu found amusement in his hardship. After he finished laughing, he thought about the prince's past deeds again.

Then he started to daydream again.

"Host, how did you become like this" said Lingling in her strange voice after a long absence.

Ning Shu opened her mouth and honestly told Lingling about her experience.

Lingling didn't expect the male lead in this world to be so perverted and sick: "This is too much! How could he do this!"

Ning Shu wasn't as excited as Ling Ling. He said softly, "The prince now thinks I'm afraid of him and want to leave."

Lingling asked: "So, host, do you want to leave"

Ning Shu didn't answer Ling Ling's words.

Lingling could only ask, "Host, wouldn't he keep you locked up then"

Ning Shu said blankly, "I don't know."

I don't know how long the prince intends to keep him locked up. Perhaps, just as the prince said, he plans to keep him imprisoned for life. The prince came to favor him after his ascension to the throne.

Ning Shu pursed her lips and said, "I don't know how to get the Crown Prince to let me out."

Lingling said: "Simple! Leave it to Lingling! Lingling knows best!"

Ning Shu was astonished.

Lingling said: "Like the Prince, that kind of pervert! Host, as long as you slightly tempt him, he'll give you his life!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!s tattooed on half of his face. No wonder he hadn't recognized each other just now.Ning Shu said in surprise, "It's you, Liu Sui."Liu Sui panicked for a moment, then immediately said with a pale face:...
