Chapter 152: The Heart of This Prince
It was late at night, with no stars or moon.

In the study, Lu Ji listened to his confidant's report with a serious expression.

"Jiang You, the youngest son of the Jiang family, has seized tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in Qianzhou and rented it out to the people at high prices. The people are complaining. I heard that in recent years, the government has received a mountain of complaints against Jiang You, but the government is afraid of Prime Minister Jiang and dares not make a public statement. All of them have been suppressed."

Lu Ji sneered: "That old fox has always been cautious, how could he allow his son to do such a reckless thing."

The confidant replied, "This little son is not born to the wife of the Jiang family, but to Prime Minister Jiang's concubine. I heard that the wife of the Jiang family doesn't like this concubine and has been keeping the mother and son in the Jiang family's old home. Jiang You has been doing whatever he wants by relying on his father's status. I'm afraid even Prime Minister Jiang himself doesn't know about it."

Lu Ji smiled disdainfully when he heard this: "This old man talks so much about morality, but he actually raised such a bastard."

"Since he is so cautious, we won't be able to find any evidence against him in the short term. So let's start with his prodigal son."

Lu Ji instructed his confidant: "Qianzhou is next to Jiangling. The governor of Jiangling is a disciple of my Lu family. Take my handwritten letter to him and ask him to find a way to collect evidence of the Jiang family's son's occupation of land and help those victims go to Beijing to file a complaint."

He then instructed: "In short, we must make a big fuss about this matter and bring it before the Saint."

The confidant immediately took Lu Ji's letter and rushed to Jiangling at full speed.

When Lu Ji returned to Qingsong Garden, it was already late at night.

There was a small light left on at the door for him. Lu Ji walked into the room, took off his clothes quietly, and glanced at the bed from time to time.

The little girl must have fallen asleep.

He took off his clothes and just walked to the bedside when he heard a soft voice from behind the bed curtains: "Are you done?"

Lu Ji paused when he heard this: "Are you still asleep?"

In fact, she had already fallen asleep, but the sound of Lu Ji coming back woke the little girl up again.

Facing Lu Ji's question, she said, "No."

Her voice was soft and lazy: "I'm waiting for you. I can't sleep if you don't come back."

When the man heard this, his eyebrows curved immediately. He raised his hand to push aside the heavy bed curtains and climbed onto the bed.

"You love me so much."

There was satisfaction in his words, and he immediately held the delicate girl in his arms.

I was sleeping soundly just now, and now my body was soft. Now I was held in the man's warm arms, and I felt sleepy again. I mumbled, "It's so late, I'm so sleepy, I'm forcing myself to wait for you."

As she said this, she closed her eyes and went back to sleep, but the man's kiss filled with a sharp breath fell upon her, leaving imprints on her delicate face. The hard stubble made her feel numb and itchy.

The little woman turned around and said lazily, "Stop it, I'm sleepy."

The man embraced her slender waist from behind and buried his head in the back of her neck: "What fragrance do you use for bathing at night?"

If you keep making small talk, you'll definitely become restless again.

The little girl was very sleepy, and hurriedly moved inside upon hearing this, but the man chased after her and clung to her, then hugged her tightly in his arms and blew into her ears mischievously: "Haven't you been waiting for me? Now that you're back, why are you hiding again?"

While they were talking, the man's big hand had already reached into her pajamas and covered that snow-white breast.

So sorry.

You shouldn't have lied to him.

How could this man be so irresistible to teasing? If you give him a little sweet treat, he will climb up the pole.

The little woman struggled and twisted her body to get out of his arms. She grabbed his restless big hands with her small hands and tried to take them away forcefully, but the man took advantage of the situation and pressed forward, trapping her tightly under him.

"Want to play hard to get?"

The tone is naughty, charming and evil.

The little woman opened her eyes and said with a hint of reluctance in her voice: "I'm really sleepy."

"Just a moment."

He coaxed her with his mouth, and his warm hands came up again, and the refreshing kiss swept over her. The little woman lost all sleepiness, but her body became more and more fragile.

Immersed in the confusion brought by the man, she couldn't help but moan, gasping one after another.

Immersed in the tenderness of a little woman, a man becomes stronger.

It's urgent.

Very greedy.

The man couldn't let go of the little woman's delicate and soft body. He wanted it again and again in different ways, but he still didn't want to stop.

Only when he heard weak cries for mercy from below did the man calm down and relax.

After waiting for the little person under him to recover a little, he swept over him again.

It was not until the second half of the night that the man felt satisfied. The bed was in a mess and there was a large wet spot on the sheets.

The woman just lay weakly on the pillow and left the battlefield to the man to clean up.

The man wrapped the little woman in a quilt and carried her to the couch. Then he quickly changed the bed sheets, made the quilt, and carried the little woman back to the bed and stuffed her into the fluffy quilt.

She slept for a while in the first half of the night. She had just been trained by the man. Although the little woman was tired, she was not so sleepy anymore.

She snuggled into the man's arms and spoke to him incoherently.

The little woman talked a little bit and asked him, "Are you going to deal with the Jiang family?"

The man was just chatting with her casually, but was surprised to see her suddenly talking about politics: "Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

If it weren't for Concubine Duan whispering in the Saint's ear, the Saint wouldn't have thought of using the Ninth Princess as a pretext, and Lu Ji wouldn't have been forced to get engaged.

The prince is used to having everything go his way, and when he is suddenly forced like this, it would be totally out of character for him not to fight back fiercely.

"Nothing, just asking."

As she spoke, the little woman raised her eyes to look at the man: "Prime Minister Jiang is a veteran of three dynasties, and he is not an easy person to deal with. After all, you are young, so you must be very careful when dealing with him."

Lu Ji was amused and raised his hand to pinch her soft little face: "You talk so conscientiously, who did you learn that from, huh?"

"I'm worried about your safety," she said.

Lu Ji lowered his eyes and stared at the little person in his arms: "Little clever boy, how come I can't hide anything from you."

As he spoke, he raised his hands and held her face: "Did you install ears in my stomach? Otherwise, why do you know everything I'm thinking?"

This is probably the tacit understanding that comes from being together for a long time.

They can't keep secrets from each other.

The little woman smiled faintly, looked at the man and said, "Then did you also install an ear in my stomach? Can't I hide my thoughts from you?"

Hearing this, Lu Ji's eyebrows suddenly turned cold, he gritted his teeth and asked her: "You want to leave me? I guessed right, right?"

Qin Xiaoning lost her words for a moment, and seeing this, she quickly made amends, "Didn't I tell you that I was just unsure at that time, so I thought of some ways out for myself. Now that the prince has given me all his wealth, how can I still have such thoughts?"

As she said that, she dived into his arms: "You are so good to me, I can't bear to leave."

The man's stern face finally showed some tenderness: "You just realized how good I am to you?"

"Those treasures are nothing, they are just external things. I'm giving you the most precious thing, which is more worthy of your cherishment than these external things."

The little woman poked her head out of his arms when she heard this: "What else have you given me?"

The man grabbed her little hand and placed it on his chest: "This prince's heart."

"I have already given you my heart. Isn't it more precious than those treasures?"
