Chapter 703 - Lure the Tiger Away

Zhu Junyang thought that he shouldn’t allow the little lass to dwell too long on these things. They needed to find something else to preoccupy her; thus, he began to do something...

“You, it’s bright daylight now yet you...” Yu Xiaocao raised her eyes to look into his and understood what he wanted to do. Her face immediately turned bright red.

The two of them were quite harmonious in this aspect. Xiaocao didn’t have an ancient person’s thoughts on this manner and wouldn’t act like a block of wood on the bed sheets like some women. She would react accordingly to the other’s movements and gain pleasure from their coupling.

Zhu Junyang also wasn’t someone who was solely preoccupied with his own pleasure. On the contrary, when his wife let out sounds of enjoyment and had an ecstatic expression on her face, it made him even more excited and aroused. In addition, his wife had exquisite smooth skin, large eyes that became bright with emotion, a little face that blushed easily, and an alluring voice...all of these stirred up primitive feelings inside of him.

If it weren’t for the fact that Xiaocao was too busy most of the time and the fact that an irksome fellow had come along with them, Zhu Junyang really would have liked to trap his wife on the bed day in and day out, so they could ‘battle’ each other for three hundred times.

The two of them mutually enjoyed a flipping of the sheets together. At the end, Xiaocao lay on her husband’s slightly sweaty chest in a lazy manner as if she didn’t want to move one iota. Her man had too much stamina and sometimes made her feel quite tired despite all of the enjoyment.

“Once the autumn harvest is finished, let’s go back to the capital ah?” From the end of the third month until now, it had already been half a year since they left their home. For the past half year, they only spent a third of the time in the experimental fields at Jinling. The remaining of the time was expended on travelling around and buying jadeite mines in the southwest border.

When the topic of the conversation came up to the mines they bought, Xiaocao once again couldn’t help but rub at her empty left wrist. The little divine stone had been gone for a dozen days. Although the stone spent the vast majority of its time cultivating within the multi-colored stone, once it left, it was a bit hard to get used to it.

Zhu Junyang felt his wife’s movements and knew that she was thinking of the little divine stone again. When that stupid stone had left, the lass had frankly told him about the golden finger she had relied upon. In his opinion, the little lass relied too much on the mystic-stone water and had no confidence in herself.

Even without the mystic-stone water, the food she made was unique and delicious. The pastries she made were creative and sweet and the cosmetics and skin care items she crafted would also be beneficial to a person’s skin. The medicinal pills she crafted would still be more effective than other people’s and her methods for brewing alcohol could still make sweet and tasty alcohol...

However, he also understood that after becoming accustomed to something, it took a long time to forget it. In order to not let his wife continue to feel sad, he still needed to distract her and make her so busy that she didn’t have the time to think of anything else!

“You...didn’t you just finish ah? How could you...” Yu Xiaocao discovered that a certain body part of his had begun changing again. Sure enough, her attention was taken up again.

Zhu Junyang grinned wolfishly, “As a strong man, how could once be enough for me? This prince will let you experience what is called ‘seven times in one night’...”

“Stop boasting so much! Be careful that you don’t lose so much energy that you end up dying from it!” Xiaocao had just made a critical mistake——doubting her man’s ability and energy in that area. The results were obvious.

Like a piece of salted fish, Xiaocao lay limply on the bed after being tossed and turned around. Her limbs felt soft and her waist hurt. She groaned in pleasure as her husband massaged her comfortably. This shameless fellow had tormented her from the afternoon until late at night. No matter how much she begged, this fellow didn’t let her go. He even said, “I’ll do the parts that require strength, you can just lie there and enjoy the moment.”

What crock! It was still tiring to spend half of her time lying on her back, let alone having a certain fellow incessantly pulling her around to do gymnastics together. Argh! Her old back...didn’t they say that the man got the most tired from these antics ah? How come the main offender was still as lively as a dragon and as energetic as a tiger?

Rumble——Xiaocao’s stomach issued a loud noise in protest.

Zhu Junyang lightly chuckled and asked, “Are you hungry? The evening meal is already ready, I’ll have the maidservants bring it in...”

“No, I don’t have the face to see anyone. I’m so embarrassed now...I don’t want to eat dinner, who cares if I starve to death?” Yu Xiaocao whimpered and turned around, showing her back to him and refusing to acknowledge him.

Zhu Junyang patiently said, as if he was trying to console a child, “If you don’t want to see anyone, then this prince will go out and bring the evening meal in. After using up all that energy, don’t you need to replenish yourself? You’re not allowed to say ‘who cares if I die’ anymore. If you say it again, this prince will have to slap your bum bum!”

“You dare! Domestic violence! You actually want to commit domestic violence against me! Didn’t you say that you would take care of me for the rest of my life ah? We’ve only been married for half a year yet you’ve already shown your true colors. Heavens and earth ah——” Yu Xiaocao theatrically exclaimed.

Zhu Junyang didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. He carried his wife into the washing room and helped wash herself clean before personally dressing her in a set of lounging attire. Then he carried her back to the outer room and set her down next to the table made of fragrant rosewood.

Wutong held the serving tray full of food that was given to her by the younger maidservants and was just about to push the door to enter when the prince stopped her at the threshold. He took the food from her and then closed the door in her face. Xiaocao acted like a dead fish and lay on the table, showing him the back of her head.

“Your Highness, this lowly one will serve you your meal!” Zhu Junyang took out several kinds of strengthening porridges, soups and stews and placed them on the table. These had all been ordered by him for the kitchen to make.

When the smell of the food hit her nostrils, Xiaocao’s stomach’s rumblings became even more apparent. She turned her head around and saw the table full of strengthening and revitalizing foods. Her face turned bright red and she awkwardly turned around again, lying down on the table, pretending to be dead.

“Your Highness, please partake in the meal. Open your mouth, ahhhh——” Zhu Junyang held a bowl of bird’s nest soup and crouched in front of his wife as he offered a spoonful of soup to her mouth.

“Today I’ve been so embarrassed that I don’t even want to raise my head. It’s all your fault!” Yu Xiaocao continued to grumble and twisted her head away from the spoon. She refused the temptation of delicious food. She couldn’t let that scoundrel off too easily!

Zhu Junyang sidled over to the other side and continued to squat down with the spoon in his head. He good naturedly said, “Yes, yes, it’s all this prince’s fault. Next time, I won’t torment you for this long, is that alright? Alright ah, don’t be angry! If you want to be angry, you can be angry after you finish eating. That way you’ll have the strength to fight!”

“Hmph, you’re not allowed to be like this next time!” Yu Xiaocao’s stomach was very hungry, so she decided not to quarrel anymore. Once she was full, she could begin to argue again. She finally ‘graciously’ opened her mouth and allowed her man to feed her one spoonful at a time. A bowl of bird’s nest soup was only enough to stave off her gaping hunger a bit, so she ate some shrimp dumplings, shumai, and lotus root soup before she was finally satisfied.

When he saw his wife eating deliciously, Zhu Junyang felt his appetite rise. The two of them devoured the entire table full of food and cleaned it off completely. When Wutong and Chunhua came in to clean up the remains, they looked at the pile of empty plates and bowls with amazement. However, the two of them knew that their mistress got easily embarrassed and didn’t reveal a single expression as they retreated out. Only once the two of them completely exited the room did the two of them look at each other and laugh.

The next morning, Su Ran and Zhu Junyang left to help Governor Fan as he had asked the two of them to help him with a case. For over a month, Jinling had encountered a host of bandits who especially targeted the rich. Not only did they steal their valuables but they also exterminated entire families and their methods were extremely cruel. The yamen had once fought head on against these bandits and discovered that the enemy was extremely powerful. The yamen ended up having disastrous casualties while the enemy left without any issue. They even left a parting insult, ‘The authorities are all rubbish’.

Governor Fan had sent out officers and men and Jinling Prefecture’s yamen had put out a warrant for arrest. Despite their preparations, they still ended up returning with their tails between their legs in defeat. Helpless, Lord Fan could only think of the two experts living in Jinling right now and asked them to come. At this time, three families had been exterminated around Jinling and over twenty officers had lost their lives. The casualties naturally were much higher.

When Zhu Junyang heard this, he was quite surprised and eager to investigate. He just wanted to see just who was this unbridled to do such cruel things under his own nose! Before he left, he especially warned Xiaocao several times that Jinling wasn’t very peaceful recently. She was not allowed to leave the safe area without permission before he came back.

This group of people was quite cunning too. They seemed to know that the authorities had gone out to find some rescuers and didn’t appear for several days in a row. When Zhu Junyang and Su Ran slightly relaxed, another accident appeared in the suburbs of Jinling. By the time Zhu Junyang hurried over, the only thing left of that family’s residence was a bunch of ash.

All in all, the whole family had eighteen people and even the servants and maidservants weren’t spared. Out of the ruins, they took out forty-two badly burned corpses. The stink was so bad that even people over five kilometers away could smell. it. Zhu Junyang gripped his hands into tight fists and believed that this group of criminals did it deliberately!

“Your Highness, do you think that this group of people is targeting you deliberately...” Su Ran’s handsome face had a solemn look on it.

“Not good!!” Zhu Junyang suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. He leapt onto his horse and sped towards the opposite direction of Jinling towards a different courtyard like a madman.

This family’s residence was completely opposite of where he wanted to go. He needed to pass through the entire city before he could get where he needed to go. Furthermore, this group of people made it very obvious that they had struck this area, as if they wanted to deliberately bring their attention there. In addition, they had held back their attacks for several days, allowing them to relax their vigilance. By choosing to strike today at this family, they definitely had a different motive.

Zhu Junyang was a superb equestrian but he was helpless as the horse he was riding wasn’t as spirited and intelligent as Fierce Wind. Furthermore, there were lots of people coming and going in the streets of Jinling, so he couldn’t gallop at top speed. Worries gnawed at his heart. He was certain that this group of people had deliberately lured him and Chief Steward Su away. Their target was definitely the residence where they had been living at...

Ever since they had the water battle on the journey there, he had ordered a dozen highly skilled bodyguards from their residence over to guard their guest house. These people were the best of the best. As long as Xiaocao didn’t leave the safety of the courtyard, that group of criminals wouldn’t find it easy to attack her. He was just afraid...

Behind was the sound of frantic horse hooves. He didn’t need to turn his head around to know that it was Su Ran, who was also extremely worried about Xiaocao. Zhu Junyang could only pray to the heavens now——Xiaocao must have listened to him and remembered his words, staying obediently within the courtyard!

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!!” The hapless pedestrians on the roads all scuttled away. There was a peddler, carrying his goods, who didn’t have enough time to back away. He could only throw his stuff away to preserve his life.

“Who is that ah? Racing horses on the official streets, are the authorities not going to take charge of this?” When the horses galloped away, the pedestrians were all covered in dust and couldn’t help but complain a bit.
