Chapter 171 - The Dog Man Is Ready To Take Advantage
Zhao Zhang Wei entered Xinhe Palace.
His footsteps unconsciously turned to move towards Lantai Courtyard.
He remembered that Yi Huiqing was looking very worried for General Li's daughter so he wished to go and comfort her. But the next moment, he remembered that he had declared in front of her that he will not step back in Lantai Courtyard because she disliked his presence.
Remembering that day, his mood instantly became foul and he turned around to go back to his Courtyard with a sour face.
When he reached near the gates of his courtyard, he didn't even raise his head and was lost in his own thoughts until a soft voice stopped him amidst his steps.
"Wangye."
Zhao Zhang Wei was startled when he heard the familiar voice. For a moment, he thought he was hallucinating and for that moment he suddenly didn't wish to turn his head and broke his illusion that Yi Huiqing was really standing behind him…perhaps and he also heard her voice, until the voice came again..
"Wangye"
This time the always graceful and elegant second Prince turned around so swiftly that Yi Huiqing took a step back in fear because she was standing close to check why he was not responding to her call.
She placed her hand on her chest and looked at him with wide eyes full of confusion. Zhao Zhang Wei smiled sheepishly and cleared his throat that was getting dry because of her beautiful face and expressions.
"How did Wangfei remember me suddenly?"
He asked but felt something wrong with his words.
Sure enough, he saw Yi Huiqing's eyes becoming strange at his words.
Ah…did his words sound sarcastic because Yi Huiqing didn't visit him after he left her Courtyard that day?
He was about to explain to her when he heard Yi Huiqing's straight face while she said
"This Wangfei disturbed Wangye, however, this wangfei was worried about her cousin sister."
In other words, she wouldn't have come here if it was not for Li Rui.
Zhao Zhang Wei felt very bitter and angry inside his heart.
For a moment, he wished for her to feel the same so he said
"Oh..really. Then should I ask Eunuch Zhang to welcome Wangfei in my humble Courtyard?"
But as soon as he finished his words, he regretted it.
Yi Huiqing's face became so distant and indifferent after his words that he really wished to beat himself when she said
"There is no need for Wangye to do that. It seems that Wangye is really busy and this wangfei disturbed Wangye. This one will take her leave."
Saying this, Yi Huiqing turned around to leave.
Zhao Zhang Wei was felt very panicked suddenly. He didn't know what he should do. The only thing he knew was that he didn't want to let Yi Huiqing go like this.
In his panicked state, he just did what he wanted.
As soon as she was about to take a step, he held her arms and drag her inside his arms. His hands encircled her waist in a moment so that she would not get any chance to run away.
Yi Huiqing was startled by everything.
One moment she was about to leave and the next moment she was dragged back only to be hugged by the same man who didn't look to be so happy in her presence.
She dumbly looked at the man in front of her who was hugging her out of nowhere.
"You…what are you doing?"
As she remembered the past actions of her so-called husband, her first thought was to cover her lips but then she acted opposite to it.
Why should he enjoy the fact that he was successful in scaring her?
She fearlessly raised her head and glared at him fiercely not knowing that she looked only more enticing to the man in front of her with all these expressions on her face.
Yi Huiqing was displeased when he didn't say anything and struggled to get out of his arms. Seeing this, Zhao Zhang Wei frowned and said
"Your sister will be fine. His Majesty is not angry with her."
The words really ceased Yi Huiqing's struggle because her attention was now more attracted by Zhao Zhang Wei's words.
"Really?"
Her mouth was parted and she didn't seem to believe Zhao Zhang Wei's words.
Yi Huiqing didn't know much about politics so there was only one thought in her mind.
'How could the Emperor not get angry with Prime Minister Xi's behavior? And since Li Rui was the reason behind that behavior of Lord Xi then wouldn't the Emperor get angry at Li Rui?'
She herself was so shocked by Lord Xi's arrogant behavior then how could the Emperor forgive everything so easily…
On the other hand, Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes were on Yi Huiqing's parted lips. He licked his lips and leaned closer.
The bright pink and full lips looked so delicious that he suddenly wanted to swallow them whole.
How did he stay away from her for those four years?
He swallowed when he was very close to her lips. Her sweet scent was so sweet that his adam apple wobbled slightly in nervousness.
"Your Highness…"
However, when he was very close to his target, a voice interrupted his sweet thoughts.
Yi Huiqing came out of her trance when she heard someone's voice and was startled to see the enlarged face in front of her.
Zhao Zhang Wei looked at Eunuch Zhang with a displeased face and taking advantage of his diverted attention, she hurriedly jumped back from his arms which made Zhao Zhang Wei more displeased.
As soon as she got out of his arms, she couldn't help but glare at him.
'The dog man was going to take her advantage again. Were the concubines in the inner courtyard less for him that he just couldn't stop touching her against her when she doesn't want it?'
Zhao Zhang Wei looked so calm under his fierce glare as if he did nothing wrong.
Huffing in frustration, Yi Huiqing could only say.
"This Wangfei will leave now."
And then she walked away from there in a hurry while cursing herself for lowering down her guard against her husband while Zhao Zhang Wei looked at the Eunuch Zhang silently.
However, his silence seemed worse than his anger at this moment.
The young eunuch could only lower his head with a wronged expression on his face.
'Now, how could he predict that the prince was trying to eat wangfei's tofu in daylight?'
