On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness

Chapter 255: Chapter 255 Provocative Thoughts

Miao Zhu was shocked for a long while, for the Commandery Princess before her had a graceful figure that, even as a woman herself who saw her every day, made her blush and her heart race.

Didn’t the Crown Prince feel anything?

Oh, she almost forgot that the Crown Prince was blind.

But at this moment, the Crown Prince wasn’t covering his eyes with the eye veil, and how come… she saw tiny specks of light in his eyes?

Miao Zhu rubbed her eyes, hardly able to believe it, she looked again, and then at her own Commandery Princess’s figure: “Commandery Princess, Your Highness, you two…”

Ye Yiheng didn’t like Miao Zhu looking at Leng Yu Yan’s figure like that. Even if Miao Zhu was a woman and her personal maid, it was still unacceptable.

So, he reached out to grab the clothes from the wooden rack, walked over, and handed them to Leng Yu Yan, “Put these on quickly.”

Miao Zhu was suspicious. Could it be that the eye medicine the Commandery Princess gave the Crown Prince last time cured his eyes?

Noticing Miao Zhu’s confusion, and with Ye Yiheng’s actions, Leng Yu Yan took the clothes and softly reminded, “Your Highness, your eyes…”

Ye Yiheng didn’t mind, “I thought you had already told Miao Zhu.”

“The Crown Prince told me not to say, and I haven’t told a soul.”

She dared not speak of his intermittent eye condition to anyone, even family or close friends.

To keep one’s word was the principle.

Hearing this, Ye Yiheng was surprised, soon followed by a gentle and shallow smile, “Commandery Princess, if you want to get your complete revenge, follow me.”

Leng Yu Yan nodded her head, Ye Zhenxian actually sent someone to shadow her, it seemed that just drugging was not enough.

“Miao Zhu, tonight you pretend to be me lying in bed, I have something to take care of,” Leng Yu Yan said as she shook out her clothes and started getting dressed.

“Commandery Princess, you and the Crown Prince…”

Listening to the conversation between the Commandery Princess and the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince could see. That is to say, the Crown Prince had seen every bit of her own Commandery Princess’s figure.

With such a graceful and delicate figure as the Commandery Princess’s, the Crown Prince’s face didn’t even turn red.

Could it be…

Miao Zhu’s fingers pointed back and forth between the two of them, and after a long while, she couldn’t help but blurt out, “Did you two really get together?”

Only if they were together, and had ‘eaten the pork’, would one not make a fuss at seeing a pig run, and certainly not blush.

Leng Yu Yan rubbed her throbbing temples, “No!”

Almost at the same time, Ye Yiheng said, “Yes.”

Miao Zhu was even more confused, seeing her own Commandery Princess still struggling to get dressed, she moved over, and while helping her put on clothes, whispered, “Commandery Princess, your maid keeps her lips sealed.”

“Just pretend to be me tonight, and if I’m not back tomorrow and the family asks, tell them I left early in the morning,” Leng Yu Yan patted her arm, “I’ll explain when I return.”

Only then did Miao Zhu nod her head.

—

Ye Yiheng brought Leng Yu Yan to the Eastern Palace.

As soon as they landed, he asked, “Why did you answer ‘no’ to Miao Zhu’s question?”

According to the progress of their agreement, shouldn’t she have admitted liking him?

Leng Yu Yan’s face blushed lightly, she knew her maid best, what Miao Zhu meant by ‘getting together’ was referring to that kind of relationship between a man and a woman.

Seeing her blush, Ye Yiheng was puzzled, “You haven’t answered me.”

Leng Yu Yan lightly bit her lip, and after a while stammered, “How should a man and woman get together? That’s what Miao Zhu was asking.”

Now it was Ye Yiheng’s turn to have his ears turn red.

He lifted his hand to cover his mouth with a fist and coughed for quite a while.

The noise was heard by Song Guo in the bedroom, who raced out, surprised and delighted to discover that the Crown Prince had brought the Commandery Princess in the middle of the night.

Good gracious, this was serious!

The Crown Prince must be feeling lonely at night, needing the company of the Commandery Princess!

Just as Song Guo was delighting in a fleeting moment of happiness, Ye Yiheng suddenly spoke out, “Go call Ruofeng, Mo Chen, Liu Yun, and Yin Shuang over.”

Song Guo promptly acknowledged the order.

She couldn’t help but criticize inwardly, Why is His Highness summoning these four? Instead of cherishing the Commandery Princess during such a splendid time?

The autumn breeze of a deep night in September was already showing its chill.

With no change in expression, Ye Yiheng took a position beside Leng Yu Yan and said, “Let’s go inside quickly.”

Leng Yu Yan nodded. At this moment, Song Guo looked somewhat strange, much like Miao Zhu. Could it be that her being with someone in the middle of the night was leading to wild speculation?

Before long, Ruofeng, Mo Chen, Liu Yun, and Yin Shuang arrived at the bedroom.

The four of them greeted, “We’ve seen Your Highness and the Commandery Princess!”

“Rise,” Ye Yiheng said indifferently. “I’ve called you here for a matter.”

“Please instruct us, Crown Prince!”

“Ye Zhenxian is gathering beauties far and wide. You are to infiltrate their ranks unnoticed and quietly cut down that cur Ye Zhenxian for me!”

Ye Yiheng spoke calmly, his voice as mellow and refined as ever, but his words sent a chill down Mo Chen and Ruofeng’s spines.

Mo Chen’s heart tightened, “Your Highness, how shall we go unnoticed? Ruofeng and I are not women, how can we blend in?”

Ruofeng asked, “Does Your Highness mean for the two of us to disguise ourselves as women?”

Liu Yun also expressed concerns, “The task His Highness has given, Yin Shuang and I can complete it. The problem is, if Prince Xian sees our faces…”

Ye Yiheng pointed to Leng Yu Yan beside him and calmly said, “I’ve called the Commandery Princess here to make a Human Skin Mask for each of the four of you so that your identities will not be exposed.”

Leng Yu Yan inclined her head, took off the wallet she was wearing, and pulled out the tools inside.

In just thirty minutes, she had made four Human Skin Masks that altered their original appearances.

That night, Mo Chen and the others donned the Human Skin Masks and changed from their guard uniforms into flamboyant and bewitching women’s attire, then left the Eastern Palace.

Watching the disappearing silhouettes in the night, Leng Yu Yan turned to the person by her side, “Your Highness, considering the time, Ye Zhenxian is already ruined, why the need…”

“To teach him a lesson!”

His tone was indifferent, as if speaking of an everyday matter.

Only Ye Yiheng himself knew that no one could covet the woman he intended to spend his life with!

Not even if Ye Zhenxian was already a cripple, it wouldn’t suffice!

Knowing he was helping her, Leng Yu Yan felt grateful, and hence, she offered him a sweet smile, coquettishly saying, “Many thanks, Your Highness!”

Ye Yiheng’s lips slightly curved up, his eyes full of noble grace, yet his words made Leng Yu Yan blush.

“Isn’t the Extreme Joy Powder left in Commandery Princess’s body not supposed to act until tomorrow daytime?”

“You!” Leng Yu Yan was at a loss for words.

“The Commandery Princess just smiled so sweetly at me, I thought you were affected by it ahead of time.”

His voice was low and seductively magnetic, rich like the night surrounding them.

His tone was teasing, carrying a trace of intrigue, as if he was quite looking forward to seeing her affected by the Extreme Joy Powder.

Leng Yu Yan was both angry and annoyed, “The Human Skin Masks are done; I should return now!”

As she spoke, she walked away.

Ye Yiheng took a long stride forward, reaching out to grasp her slender wrist, “It’s already past midnight, where are you going?”

“Back to the Prince Mansion!” she said, looking down to pry his fingers off her wrist. “I just don’t want to stay by Your Highness’s side, that’s all.”

“What are you worried about?” Ye Yiheng’s question was unhurried, his tone even. “Are you afraid that I will devour you?”

Hearing these words, Leng Yu Yan looked up at him, her beautiful eyes clear and filled with embarrassment and annoyance.

“The Commandery Princess is overly concerned; I have a hidden illness and cannot do such things. Isn’t that why you are willing to marry me?”

He stepped closer to her, and his usually austere face suddenly softened, “If the Commandery Princess is willing, I could think of a way.”
