Su Xi-er replied, “This servant accidentally killed Wei Mohai, so Prince Yun naturally wants to take revenge for him by getting rid of me . ”
Pei Qianhao coldly sneered . “If that’s really the case, Yun Ruofeng wouldn’t need to go to the trouble of repeatedly coming to the posthouse . Be more careful these few days . ”
“This servant obeys the order . ” Su Xi-er began breaking free of him .
“Have you finished resting? Why did you suddenly come to the main hall to look for this Prince?”
“Prince Hao, a few pots of Lingrui we bought from Moon County have wilted . ”

Pei Qianhao’s expression darkened a little . A few pots have already died before we even began researching . If this goes on, wouldn’t all of them be dead by the time we reach Beimin?
“Prince Hao, you should bring back a flower grower from Nanzhao . Otherwise, all of them would have wilted by the time we return to Beimin . ”
Pei Qianhao nodded . “You’re right, we should bring an experienced flower grower back . Tell me, how should this Prince reward you for having such a clever little brain?”
“This servant wants to leave the posthouse and get back the dangling hair ornament from the pawnshop . Then…”

Pei Qianhao interrupted her . “You can only choose one thing . Don’t go overboard . ”
Seeing his solemn expression, an idea popped into her head . She slowly approached him on her tiptoes, hooking her arms around his neck and planting a kiss on his lips . Although she didn’t have much experience, she had still learned a little bit of technique from the few times that she had kissed Pei Qianhao .
Pei Qianhao froze for a moment, astonished by the situation . I haven’t even said anything yet, but she is already kissing me .
Unfortunately for Su Xi-er, Pei Qianhao’s lips remained shut, leaving her only able to peck his lips a few times . Once he could finally react, a chuckle escaped from his lips; he then hooked his arms around her waist before pushing her against a pillar .
His kiss was eager and fierce, hungrily kissing her as if he was intent on eating her up . By the time he released her, his expression had completely changed .

His hands wandered around Su Xi-er’s waist as he slowly tested . “What do you think of following this Prince back to the Prince Hao Residence and becoming my Room Concubine Servant? You will truly become my woman . ”
Su Xi-er’s heart sank when she heard that . With how much she worried about Lianchen, she had only planned on staying in Beimin temporarily . Furthermore, Pei Qianhao doesn’t know my true identity . He doesn’t like women who are too opinionated and overbearing either . If he finds out that I am Ning Rulan, he would probably treat me in a completely different manner .
After not receiving her response for a while, Pei Qianhao could guess her thoughts . He raised his hand to comb her hair . “This Prince never forces people, but there’s a limit to this Prince’s patience . Su Xi-er, this Prince allows you some time to consider . ”
I suppose that I can only stall for time for now . Su Xi-er nodded . “Prince Hao, after this servant retrieves the dangling ornament, I want to go to the original Fortune Apricot House . This servant believes that it has reopened under new management, and would like to go eat something . ”
Pei Qianhao could tell that she didn’t wish for him to accompany her, so he didn’t make things difficult for her . “This Prince is happy today, so I will permit you to go . However, you are only allowed a maximum of six hours . If you’re not back by then, this Prince will send someone to carry you back for a beating . ”
“This servant will definitely be back in six hours,” Su Xi-er assured .
Pei Qianhao released her and instructed two imperial guards to follow her out of the posthouse .
The two felt that Su Xi-er had long surpassed a mere maidservant, having obtained Prince Hao’s favour as if she had become his woman . The women in the Beauty Palace can’t compare to Su Xi-er at all!
With Su Xi-er around, I’m afraid that the Beauty Palace will only exist in name . There’s even a possibility that the Beauty Palace will be abolished as long as Su Xi-er continues to gain Prince Hao’s affection .
