Miao Zhu angrily pointed at the women inside. "Having followed the Crown Princess Consort since I was young, I swear on my character, my lady naturally has good looks. You are just jealous. Look at your chests, as flat as if they’ve been trampled by horses and pressed by stone slabs, ugh! I genuinely pity your children, not even their food is assured!" After her outburst, the three women inside instantly burst into tears. Regarding Miao Zhu’s earlier statement, Ye Yiheng did not fully agree. A certain lady indeed was naturally quite beautiful, but that should not negate his contributions. And those women calling him a wild man, he couldn’t tolerate it; he was her lawful husband! He immediately said, "Since they are gossipmongers, then let’s pull out their tongues." Mo Chen Ruofeng suddenly appeared, and the two pulled out daggers and approached the three women in the courtyard. Ms. Qu collapsed in fright. If these three were to lose their tongues over this, how could she ever hold her head up in Jiangzhou City’s circle of ladies again? She feared even her second son’s wife wouldn’t be easily found. The three women inside were so scared that they immediately stopped crying. After an eerie silence, a gust of wind brought a strong smell of urine at the courtyard entrance. Mo Chen and Ruofeng had already covered their noses and mouths early on. Mo Chen frowned and said, "Your Highnesses, these three women have wet themselves." Ruofeng hopped a few steps away and remarked, "Ugh, it’s filthy." Leng Yu Yan pinched the fabric at Ye Yiheng’s waist, "Your Highness, please spare them, I’ve already had Mrs. Zhao and Miao Zhu teach them a lesson." At that moment, Elder Mrs. Zhang, Zhang Yumeng, and Zhang Yucheng’s wife also hurried over. After roughly understanding the situation, Elder Mrs. Zhang angrily said, "Ms. Qu, what kind of people are you associating with? Speaking so unrestrainedly even before marriage, our Zhang Family can’t afford such women!" Saying so, Elder Mrs. Zhang looked lovingly at Leng Yu Yan, "Nannan has been upset, come over to your grandmother." Leng Yu Yan sniffled quietly, left someone’s embrace, and went over to Elder Mrs. Zhang. "Good Nannan, let’s ignore them." Elder Mrs. Zhang happily hugged Leng Yu Yan whose figure was admirable and others could only envy, then smiled and said, "Let’s go back to our room and talk privately." While speaking, Elder Mrs. Zhang gestured for Zhang Yumeng and Zhang Yucheng’s wife to follow, and then looked towards Ye Yiheng, "Crown Prince, I will take Nannan away. Your Highness wouldn’t mind, right?" Ye Yiheng nodded slightly, signalling agreement. After Elder Mrs. Zhang led Leng Yu Yan away, he abruptly said, "Mo Chen Ruofeng, carry out the order, escort them home and remember to cut a piece off each of their tongues." His voice was calm and extremely stern, reflecting his dignified and clear aura. Looking at his noble temperament, cold and abstinent, how could he be associated with a wild man? Inside, the three women were already pale with fear. The Crown Princess Consort had people slap them, clearly not easy to provoke, and the Crown Prince here was simply a devil. "Please, Crown Prince, have mercy!" The three women begged continuously, "Please ask Old Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang to intercede for us!" Ms. Qu tightly closed her mouth, fearing her tongue would also be cut. Zhang Ruohai glanced at the fearful Ms. Qu and felt greatly satisfied; this woman needed this lesson! If not, she always angered his mother. At this moment, Song Guo coldly said, "Your Highness did not ask for your lives, aren’t you going to thank His Highness? It was originally to be pulling out tongues, now it’s changed to cutting off a piece. Of course, your tongues are long, cutting a piece off is just right, from now on, please behave yourselves!" The three women, upon hearing this, trembled uncontrollably, nearly losing control again. Mo Chen Ruofeng raised his hand, commanding the Hidden Guards to take the three gossiping women away, following closely behind. That night, it was quiet, with only the sounds of cicadas and insects. At the Zhang Family, Qingyu Residence. This was where Mrs. Zhang lived before she was married, now provided for Leng Yu Yan, and Ye Yiheng naturally stayed with her. Since they entered the Tiansheng Territory from Nandian, they had been staying separately in inns along the way. She and Miao Zhu shared a room, while he was alone. Today, finally sleeping together, Ye Yiheng held her without letting go. Leng Yu Yan knew she had no reason to push him away, but the embarrassment of being caught and brought back still prevailed, so she just stiffened her body and let him hold her. Seeing her silence, Ye Yiheng pinched the soft flesh at her waist. "What are you thinking?" "I’m thinking about what those women said this afternoon, I’m so angry." "Forget the anger; I already ordered their tongues to be cut." "Ah, really cut off?" "Only cut off a section, to teach them a lesson." He spoke calmly, as if discussing something mundane. Leng Yu Yan trembled all over, realizing that if she tried to escape again, she really would lose her life. If she didn’t escape but angered him instead, she might also lose her life. "Why are you trembling?" The man asked as he rested his chin on her shoulder, caressing it several times. She turned around, pressing her trembling body against his, her head buried in his chest. "The Crown Prince is somewhat fierce, I am afraid," she paused before adding, "If I am obedient, won’t the Crown Prince refrain from being harsh with me?" Would he refrain from killing her? Her soft, timid voice stirred Ye Yiheng, tightening his spine as if all the blood in his body had concentrated in one place. Updates are released by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽 At that moment, he wanted to hear her cry. "Yanyan, I want to kiss you." He suddenly felt a dryness in his throat, longing to kiss and nibble. Leng Yu Yan thought, was it just a kiss? Little did she know that he would strip off her underwear along with her heart clothes... Leng Yu Yan slowly awoke, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw him smiling at her. She didn’t know how she had fallen asleep last night, all she knew was that his energy had been boundless, and she had been too exhausted to even dress herself. Thinking of this, she quickly checked herself and found her underwear was neatly worn. But then she felt something was off. Her underwear seemed empty, she pulled open the neckline to look and instantly blushed. Ye Yiheng calmly said, "Don’t be shy, no one else can see." Leng Yu Yan, embarrassed, covered herself with a thin blanket, feeling intensely hot. Ye Yiheng laughed; he hadn’t just seen, he had done much more last night. He embraced her body, his voice husky as he asked, "What did your grandmother talk about with you?" And the fact that she called the two pregnant women from the Zhang Family too, all secretive. Under the blanket, she shook her head, "I won’t say." He tickled her, "Not going to tell?" "Stop it, Your Highness, haha, it tickles..." she giggled, surrendering immediately, "I’ll tell, I’ll tell." Ye Yiheng ceased his actions, exposing her head, and kissed her smooth forehead. Leng Yu Yan, cheeks red, whispered, "Grandmother had my older cousin and sister-in-law share their experiences with me." Hearing this, Ye Yiheng understood. What else could Elder Mrs. Zhang make two pregnant women teach? But seeing her embarrassed state, he was pleased, yet still inquired, "So, what did you learn?" "I didn’t really listen." "I was too embarrassed to listen." Ye Yiheng laughed again, "Scaredy-cat." Leng Yu Yan retorted, "I was too embarrassed to listen. They were talking about those kinds of things, how could I comfortably listen?"
