"Promise me, you'll treat me as well as eldest brother-in-law treats sister-in-law, for the rest of our lives."

Rui w.a.n.g pinched her cheeks and said, "Silly, what's so difficult about this? You are my wife, and if I'm not good to you, who will I be good to?"

"Ahem." Ning w.a.n.g cleared his throat. "Let's go."

Rui w.a.n.gfei quickly pulled his hand away, and Rui w.a.n.g scratched his head awkwardly. Afterward, they seemed to deliberately avoid each other, wis.h.i.+ng they could take separate carriages.

On the other hand, Ning w.a.n.g, disregarding the gazes of others, held Ning w.a.n.gfei's hand in public.

The customs and traditions of this dynasty were more open compared to the previous one, but such intimacy in public was still rare.

Ning w.a.n.gfei felt slightly uncomfortable, but Ning w.a.n.g smiled so gently at her, making it hard to refuse.

The group of four left the palace, and the carriages from the two prince’s residences had been waiting outside the palace gates for some time. Rui w.a.n.gfei naturally went back with Rui w.a.n.g, and logically, Ning w.a.n.g should have returned to Ning w.a.n.g Residence with Ning w.a.n.gfei.

However, unexpectedly, Ning w.a.n.g held Ning w.a.n.gfei's hand and said, "Imperial father asked me to visit the imperial study this afternoon. You should go back first."

Ning w.a.n.gfei hurriedly said, "If you have official business to attend to, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Ning w.a.n.g smiled and replied, "I wanted to see you off. I can only feel at ease once you've boarded the carriage."

Rui w.a.n.gfei couldn't help but envy the affection between her eldest brother-in-law and sister-in-law. It was like a fairytale love story.

Ning w.a.n.gfei said, "Then you should go and see imperial father quickly. I'll head back first."

Ning w.a.n.g said with a smile, "Alright."

After Ning w.a.n.gfei finished speaking, she withdrew her hand, turned around, and boarded the carriage heading to Ning w.a.n.g Residence.

Rui w.a.n.g bid farewell to Ning w.a.n.g, saying, "Well then, eldest brother-in-law, we'll be on our way."

Ning w.a.n.g nodded and said, "Regarding the matter I mentioned to you, pay attention to it. I'll speak for you in front of imperial father later."

Rui w.a.n.g laughed heartily and replied, "All right!"

"What did eldest brother ask you to do?" Rui w.a.n.gfei asked softly.

"I'll tell you later." Rui w.a.n.g said, pulling his wife towards the carriage heading to Rui w.a.n.g Residence. Just as he was about to help Rui w.a.n.gfei get on the carriage, another carriage suddenly approached at high speed on the official road near the palace gate, nearly colliding with them.

Fortunately, the carriage came to a stop with only a distance of one carriage between them.

Ning w.a.n.g now stood in front of the carriage, holding a precious sword in his hand. It seemed as if he would have swung the sword to kill the horse if the coachman hadn't halted the carriage in time.

The curtains of the carriage were lifted, revealing a handsome man with wheat-colored skin. His features were firm, his eyes deep and bright when he smiled.

He held a folding fan in his hand, exuding a carefree and unrestrained demeanor.

Today, he did not tie up all his hair but gently braided a portion behind his head. A few strands of his dark hair hung down on the right side of his face, perfectly obscuring one side of his profile.

"Well, what a coincidence? It's His Highnesses Ning w.a.n.g and Rui w.a.n.g." He said, cupping his hand in a salute while holding the fan.

Rui w.a.n.g frowned, "Sixth Prince?"

That's right, the person before them was the State of Chen’s hostage prince and the sixth prince of the State of Chen’s imperial family, Yuan Tang.

Yuan Tang's attire today was somewhat peculiar. His long hair flowed freely, giving him a somewhat mysterious appearance.

However, he wasn't a clean-cut scholar. He was a wheat-skinned handsome man exuding a masculine aura. This image was somewhat indescribable.

Yuan Tang smiled and said, "Your Highness Rui w.a.n.g, long time no see. This must be Rui w.a.n.gfei? Or perhaps we met once a few years ago."

Ning w.a.n.g subtly positioned himself to s.h.i.+eld Rui w.a.n.g and his wife, addressing Yuan Tang, "Is the Sixth Prince here to race horses in the palace?"

Yuan Tang cupped his hand again and chuckled, "Oh, no, I wouldn't dare. I was just eager to greet you both, so my carriage may have been a bit fast."

Ning w.a.n.g replied coldly, "We are not acquainted, so there's no need for greetings."

Yuan Tang raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Is this your country's way of treating guests?"

Ning w.a.n.g replied in a cold tone, "You are not a guest; you are a hostage."

Yuan Tang rubbed his chest and sighed, "Oh, you really hurt my self-esteem. I was actually looking for a parrot that can speak outside the palace, hoping to enjoy it together with the two highnesses. But it seems that neither of you is in the mood for amus.e.m.e.nt with this Yuan Tang. This Yuan Tang bids you farewell then."

With that, he cupped his hand towards them once more and turned to walk back to his own carriage.

In that fleeting moment as he pa.s.sed by Rui w.a.n.gfei, a gust of cold wind lifted his flowing hair covering one side of his face. Blaming his eye-catching appearance, Rui w.a.n.gfei instinctively glanced at him.

"Ah!" Rui w.a.n.gfei exclaimed, dropping the handkerchief from her hand.

"What's the matter, Rui w.a.n.gfei?" Yuan Tang turned back, puzzled.

Rui w.a.n.gfei turned around, moving closer to Rui w.a.n.g's chest. Rui w.a.n.g quickly protected her in his embrace and glared coldly at Yuan Tang, saying, "You frightened my wife!"

"Well, I apologize." Yuan Tang cupped his hand and bowed in apology.

After Yuan Tang left, Ning w.a.n.g looked at Rui w.a.n.g and Rui w.a.n.gfei with concern, "What happened just now?"

The handkerchief on the ground had been picked up and put away by their servants.

Rui w.a.n.g comfortingly patted Rui w.a.n.gfei's shoulder and asked, "Yes, did that guy intentionally scare you?"

Rui w.a.n.gfei shook her head and said, "No, I just... I was just surprised."

Rui w.a.n.g was confused, "Surprised about what? It's not like you haven't seen him before."

Yuan Tang, as the State of Chen’s hostage prince, generally didn't attend gatherings of the State of Zhao’s imperial family. However, when he first arrived in the State of Zhao, to showcase the magnanimity of the imperial family, the Emperor hosted a welcoming banquet for him and the State of Chen’s envoy.

Rui w.a.n.gfei carefully thought for a moment and decided to tell them about witnessing the Crown Princess's secret meeting with someone.

"You, you, you..." Rui w.a.n.g was so shocked that he started stuttering, "Are you sure you didn't mishear? It really was the Crown Princess with Yuan Tang?"

Rui w.a.n.gfei recalled, "They deliberately lowered their voices when speaking, so I couldn't recognize whose voices they were. But I heard the Crown Princess say, 'What have you done to Chunying?' Chunying is the Crown Princess's personal court lady. Afterwards, I saw the Crown Princess coming out from behind the rockery, so I'm certain it was her."

Ning w.a.n.g asked, "How did you confirm that the man was Yuan Tang?"

Rui w.a.n.gfei furrowed her brow and explained, "I heard the Crown Princess slap him behind the rockery. Then, I saw Yuan Tang's face all swollen and red just now, with distinct marks that looked like lingering finger imprints. It immediately made me think of that man..."

Such a matter was far from honorable. The Crown Princess of the current dynasty meeting privately with the State of Chen’s hostage prince would be considered a capital crime punishable by death if the news got out.

Rui w.a.n.g couldn't believe it and said, "This Yuan Tang... he's too audacious... And the Crown Princess, why would she meet privately with the State of Chen’s hostage prince? She doesn't seem like that kind of person..."

Rui w.a.n.gfei snorted, "What do you mean she doesn't seem like that kind of person? You men are all blind! I told you before that she's not a proper woman. When she had an engagement with Xiao Heng, she dared to flirt with the Crown Prince. Who's to say that now that she has the Crown Prince, she won't try to get involved with other men?"

Rui w.a.n.g argued, "What are you talking about? Who's blind?"

"You!" Rui w.a.n.gfei's voice dropped. Then she realized that Ning w.a.n.g was also present and awkwardly smiled, "Not you, eldest brother-in-law! You are the one with the sharpest eyes in the entire palace! But you, don't think I don't know that you secretly liked Wen Linlang! Fourth Brother too! Only eldest brother-in-law didn't like her!"

Rui w.a.n.g choked, "That was many years ago..."

He was just a young and inexperienced youth, momentarily captivated by Wen Linlang's beauty. But didn't he stop paying attention to her afterward?
