The Obsessive Crown Prince Can't Let Me Go Chapter 174 - 172 Tonight Is Proactive
Lu Ying held her on his lap. "Waiting for ?"
Shen Yinning didn’t answer; she rely withdrew her gaze from the window and circled his neck, initiating a kiss on his thin lips.
She had just drunk rose tea, the rich sweet scent of rose lingering between her lips and teeth.
It captivated Lu Ying.
This little vixen, she’s taking the initiative tonight.
He thought as he clasped the back of her head, deepening the kiss assertively.
anwhile, at a post station thirty miles outside the city.
The sky was laden with snow.
The guards responsible for escorting Shen Xinglei had long been bribed heavily by the Shen Family. At this mont, they were treating Shen Xinglei like a young master, the room furnished with gold, silver, and fine silks, with ample hot water and charcoal provided. One could hardly believe this was an exile; it seed more like a wealthy young lord out on a scholarly trip.
The lead guard clasped his hands in a salute, "The post station is rudintary, incomparable to the magnificent Duke Mansion. We ask Young Master Shen to pardon its inadequacy."
Shen Xinglei waved his hand impatiently, signaling him to leave quickly.
His wounds had not healed entirely, so he could only lie on the bed, playing with figurines.
Bored earlier that day, he had made little figurines from wild grasses, pasting a paper strip on one of them, inscribed with Shen Yinning’s birth date and eight characters of destiny.
"Bitch, you frad !"
"Bitch, you frad !"
"..."
With all his might, he stabbed needles into the figurine, his dark face distorted with rage.
Outside the window, there was the sound of snow falling.
But within that sound, there seed to be other rustling noises hidden.
Had not the night guards sneaked into the house to slack off, they might have seen a squad thodically surrounding the post station.
Lu Jiazhe sat astride a tall horse, watching the post station, and made a gesture.
Behind him, the Hidden Guards of the Prince Mansion silently dismounted, infiltrating the post station like black smoke. They swiftly reached the respective rooms and ended the lives of the guards with thin blades from behind.
Shen Xinglei was still stabbing the figurine.
Smoke infiltrated the room through gaps in the window, and soon after, his eyes closed, and he fell unconscious.
One Hidden Guard slung him over a shoulder, while another tossed a dead body onto the bed as they quietly left the post station.
Lu Jiazhe led his n galloping back to the city.
Behind them, a fierce blaze erupted, reaching the sky and quickly engulfing the entire post station.
The next day.
Lu Ying went to court.
Shen Yinning woke up early, and just after having breakfast, Haitang ca in to report that the Princely Heir from the Prince Mansion had co bearing gifts.
Lu Jiazhe soon commanded his trusted aides to carry in a gigantic case. Upon opening it, inside were several exquisitely crafted jade sculptures.
"How beautiful; Ah Ze, you’re so thoughtful."
Shen Yinning smiled, instructing to have the case carried to the secret room.
Opening the case’s false bottom, Shen Xinglei was found tied up, gagged with a cloth.
Lu Jiazhe sought credit, "Sister Shen, did I handle this beautifully or what?"
"It was indeed beautiful." Shen Yinning looked down at Shen Xinglei from above, pulling the cloth from his mouth, "Second Cousin, we et again."
Shen Xinglei had long awoken.
After the initial shock, he struggled furiously, "Shen Yinning, you foul woman, what do you plan to do by tying up here?! Release , I command you to release at once!"
Lu Jiazhe raised an eyebrow, delivering a punch to his face!
He coldly demanded, "If you don’t clean up your mouth, I’ll cut out your tongue!"
"How dare you!" Shen Xinglei fud with rage, "I am the second son of Shen Guogong Mansion, and my younger sister is the current Crown Princess Consort. You two are conspiring against by tying up here—do you not value your lives?!"
He hollered fiercely, and suddenly, a lewd thought crossed his mind, "Lu Jiazhe, you’re helping Shen Yinning—could it be that you’ve been seduced by this slutty cousin of mine?! Have you slept with her? How was she? During her ti in the Heavenly Prison and Gan State, she was probably bedded by countless n already—not that you’d mind! Release now, and I’ll have my big brother send you ten beauties, how about it?"
Lu Jiazhe was angry, tempted to hit him but rembered this was Shen Yinning’s prey, so he simply looked at Shen Yinning.
Shen Yinning showed no sign of anger.
She gracefully took a seat, toying with a bracelet.
It was precisely the bracelet she had stolen from Shen Xinglei’s study.
She spoke softly, "Second Cousin, your mouth is quite unpleasant. Ah Ze suggested cutting your tongue, which is a fine idea. However, I think since you’ve extracted countless teeth from the commoners, pulling a few of yours shouldn’t be a problem."
Lu Jiazhe imdiately instructed his trusted aides, "Didn’t you hear Sister Shen’s words?!"
Several aides imdiately stepped forward, resolutely holding Shen Xinglei down, pulling out pliers and other tools to extract his teeth.
Shen Xinglei’s face turned pale.
These people were serious!
A trace of fear sprouted in his heart as he struggled desperately, "Shen Yinning, you bitch, I have the entire Duke Mansion backing ! If you dare harm even slightly, I swear I will see you dead with no body to bury!"
Shen Yinning tilted her head, "Second Cousin was raised under the direct supervision of my father and brother. Not only did my brother take the bla for your faults, but he also credited you with his military accomplishnts—even though his kindness was boundless, you repaid it with animosity, slandering my father and brother for mistreating soldiers and embezzling military funds. Shen Xinglei, my father and brother were forgiving, but I am not."
One by one, the teeth were extracted.
Shen Xinglei shrieked pitifully, drenched in cold sweat from the excruciating pain, his mouth full of blood.
In the past, when he tornted the commoners, he only found the cries of the elderly, won, and children entertaining, especially the won. Every ti he ordered the extraction of their children’s teeth, their cries were exceedingly miserable and desperate.
He loved hearing such cries.
But now, facing his own turn, he found it unbearably painful; even a stalwart man found the piercing pain of his teeth shattering made him feel worse than death!
He glared at Shen Yinning, pale-faced.
It turned out that his elder brother was right; this bitch had always held a grudge against their family!
Was his exile not an accident, but orchestrated by this bitch?!
As if seeing through his thoughts, Shen Yinning playfully arched her eyebrows, "Second Cousin, you guessed it right. Over the years, I never once forgot the enmity of having my family exterminated. I’ve waited so long just to uproot you all, one by one, and kill each and every one of you. Look, you’re the first; who shall be next?"
She held out her fingers, as if pondering seriously.
"Bitch—!!"
Shen Xinglei let out a hoarse roar from his throat.
From sowhere, he mustered the strength to break free from the guards, fiercely lunging with his head toward Shen Yinning!
But alas—
A Mystic Iron Chain was fastened around his neck.
The other end was affixed to the chamber’s wall, impossible to break free from!
Shen Yinning propped her chin with one hand, looking a bit troubled, "Second Cousin, you’re being quite unruly. If you keep shouting like this, Brother Lu might discover I’m hiding you here."
Shen Xinglei was montarily stunned.
"Oh, haven’t you noticed?" Shen Yinning’s face was innocent, "We’re at Shen Garden, the garden Father designed and built for to give as a wedding gift. Although it’s now under Brother Lu’s na, Brother Lu dotes on , allowing to live here with him. Oh right, Brother Lu has neglected Shen Yunxi this past year to spend his nights here with . He’s so irritating, always sticking to ; he doesn’t even get mad when I write ’Lu Ying is Shen Yinning’s dog’ on his arm."
