love concubine

Although it was said to be locked in the room, the prince still allowed me to sit in the courtyard.At those times I was dressed as a princess and wore a veil.Then the nanny would hold the little prince and sit beside me, and while we were teasing the baby, we would eat the chestnut cake that the prince specially bought.

But every night, after I coax the little prince to sleep, no matter how long I sit, I still can't wait for the prince to come back.

Does he still insist on spending the night in Ye Rong Jing Pavilion?Why?Is it because he has someone he likes there...?When I think of this, my heart seems to be pulled to the bottom of grief by an iron anchor.The prince... I don't know what kind of girl he has his eyes on?That's right... the princess has been treating the prince like this, of course the prince will feel lonely.Not to mention that the princess is gone now, so it is only natural for the prince to seek comfort from a girl...

This night, I sat on the bed alone in the princess underwear, waiting...waiting...

Seeing that the candles on the round table were about to go out... "Alas..." Forget it, he probably won't be coming back tonight...

Suddenly, a baby's cry came from the side room.Is it the little prince who woke up hungry and cried in the middle of the night?The same goes for the father, it's okay to ignore me, but he rarely even visits the children.After all, that was his son too...

I heard the voice of the nanny coaxing her to sleep, but the baby kept crying.In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore, put on a robe and walked to the next room, "What's wrong with Xiaoyuxuan?" When I was alone with the nanny, I got permission from the prince not to wear a veil.

The nanny was wearing underwear and disheveled hair, with an apologetic expression on her face, "Ah?! Disturbing Your Royal Highness's sleep!..."

"It's okay," I smiled tiredly, "Is Xiaoyuxuan hungry?"

"Back to the princess, the slave has just been fed, but the little prince just keeps crying..."

"Hmm...give me a hug." I said, and the nanny quickly put the baby into my arms. "Shh~ Xiaoyuxuan, good boy..." I coaxed softly, and after a while, the little prince closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Ouch~ This kid really knows how to act like a spoiled child to his own mother!" The nanny giggled.

But I heard it in my ears, and there was a slight bitterness in my heart.This child is the son of the prince and the princess, but not mine... It is impossible for me to give the prince any heir in this life.Even if I become his male concubine, I will not be a side concubine.Because I'm a man... I'm lucky enough to be by his side, how can I expect any status?

"Your Highness, please go back and rest. Let the servants take the little prince back?"

"Well...tonight, let me hug the baby to sleep..." At least, even if it's only for a short time, I hope I can put his baby by my side...

I cautiously returned to the bed and lay on my side, so that the child could sleep warmly in my arms.

"Xiao Yuxuan...don't become indifferent like your father when you grow up..." I lightly pricked the baby's little hand with my fingers. "If you become like your father, many girls will be upset..." Suddenly the baby's fat and short fingers moved, and the five fingers firmly grasped mine. "Xiaoyuxuan!..." I felt my eyes heat up, and I couldn't help hugging the child even tighter, "Hee hee... Good boy, are you telling me not to worry about you?..."

That whole night, the little prince obediently did not cry again.

In the morning, I felt warm beside me.I slowly opened my eyes, and all I could see was a broad chest.I suddenly sat up, but the little prince from last night was gone and turned into a great prince!

"King!..." I saw him put on his underwear and lay down with me under the quilt. I didn't know when the outer robe was taken off, leaving only my underwear.

"Hmm..." The prince murmured, and soon woke up, "Xiaoxue?..."

"My lord! The little lord is gone!"

I grabbed his sleeve nervously.But he yawned, turned his face and closed his eyes again, "Last night I came back in the middle of the night and gave Yu Xuan to the nanny to take care of."

"Yes...that's how it is..." He...he came back last night!

I couldn't help smiling.He is back! ...I couldn't be happier!That's too bad...why do I have the illusion that my husband is finally home...

"Aren't you going to sleep?" I was suddenly asked, and I came back to my senses, only to see the prince was still lying down and looking at me.

"I'm okay……"

Then he closed his eyes again, and the room was silent for a while...

"Xiaoxue."

"Yes?!" I responded eagerly.

"Can you... play a song for me?"

"Huh?...now?!"

"I... drank too much alcohol last night. Now I have a headache..."

"Then...shall I go and serve hangover soup?"

"No need." The prince still closed his eyes, and his voice seemed to be hesitant to say, "A song."

"……Ok?"

"I want to hear it. Listen to what song you played for Qian Shu and the others. After listening, I probably won't be in pain anymore."

My ears and cheeks became hot instantly, and I was immediately too shy to speak.

Could it be... is the prince minding me playing the piano for Brother Mo and Brother Qian?  …

I lowered my head and timidly climbed out of the bed, and found the worn-out violin from among my belongings.There is no piano table in the room, so I can only sit beside the bed and put Yaoqin on my lap on tiptoe.

"If your lord thinks it's too loud and you get a headache, please stop Kexue immediately..."

"Hey...or "Ke Xue"?" The prince lay on his side facing me, closed his eyes and smiled slightly.

"I... made a fool of myself..." Then I moved my fingers lightly, hoping that the sound I played would make him feel comfortable.

I bowed my head to play the piano, and sometimes peeked at the prince.The feeling at this moment is like going back to when I was still the luthier of Ye Rongjing Pavilion, when I met the old man who stared at me from time to time, I would feel a shy and sweet throbbing in my heart.I'm guessing, I don't know what the old man is thinking?I always feel that he will not be like other uncles, with lust in his eyes.His eyes are clearer and more sincere than others.And, for some reason, there was a faint sadness.

"Xiaoxue," the prince suddenly murmured softly, "I came back last night and saw you sleeping soundly with Yu Xuan in your arms. I felt a strange feeling in my heart."

I was shaken in my heart, and reminded myself that I must continue to play.

I just heard the prince continue, "It's like I'm back home. I saw my wife and my son. I feel very warm... very happy..."

I played silently, but my hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Xiaoxue... Where should I go to find a girl like you to be my wife? Someone Yu Xuan likes, and I like it too?"

"Like it?!..." I forced myself to play the piano calmly, "My lord means..."

He closed his eyes and smiled slightly, "It would be great if Xiaoxue was my wife..."

"Plop!" Yaoqin rolled off my lap and fell heavily to the ground.

"Xiaoxue?!" The prince opened his eyes and quickly came to me, "What's wrong?!" He held my hand and brushed away the long hair that covered my face, "Why are you crying?! "

"Hmm!..." I pursed my lips tightly, unable to speak for a long time.I just felt tears dripping from my cheeks like spring water, his warm palm wrapped my face, and his thumb nervously wiped away my bloody tears.

So what the prince means is that he likes me...but doesn't want me...? !

He wants a girl...he doesn't want me! ...but he clearly said he likes me...he likes me!  …

"Xiaoxue?!" The prince called my name repeatedly in a panic.

"Oh!...Woo!..." I was not reconciled.What am I crying about? !Didn't I already know that there would be no result between myself and the prince? !Why is my heart still hurting? !I clenched my hands firmly into fists.I can not be reconciled.If only...if I wasn't a man!Then I can justifiably be with him!I can give birth to him, and be his child's mother... Not reconciled... Not reconciled! "My lord... Kexue... can't I?!..."

"……Ok?"

"Why are you still looking for a girl?...The little prince likes me...the prince also said he likes me!...So!...Can't Ke Xue?! Me too!... ...I am also the name of my daughter's family!...」

But seeing the prince kneeling in front of me stunned, I knew I had said something I shouldn't have said.

"Puha!" But the prince suddenly let out a smile, ""Kexue" is really the name of my daughter's family."

"..." Hearing his relieved laughter, I felt a little flustered and a little hopeful.Didn't the prince blame me for saying such rude words?Or... is he making fun of me...?

"Xiaoxue..." He frowned slightly, his palms still covering my face, "Do you want to be my wife?"

Listening to his question, my heart can only beat wildly.But I felt my head was light, and I felt as if I was about to pass out.

"This is really distressing..." When I heard this, my expectant heart sank again.

I saw the prince smiling softly.He stood up, and what I didn't dare to look up to could only look forward.

But he said softly, "I hope Ziyin will come back soon, and then I can ask her to bring you here."

"……Um?!"

As soon as I looked up, I saw his magnified face, "Xiaoxue, my future wife." Then there was a soft kiss on his forehead, and I immediately fell on his chest.I can't say anything but cry.

But this time, I cried happily.Because, he called me "future lady".
