As he walked, Yan Fei quickly rubbed his hands together to warm them up, afraid that the coldness on his body would affect her.
But after Mu Yunge took Yan Fei’s hand, she still felt it.
“Xiao Xi, your hands are so cold.”
After saying that, she stretched Yan Fei’s hand to her warm face.
“This way they won’t be cold.”
Only one candle was lit in the hall, casting a dim light. Watching her hold his hands against her face to warm him, Yan Fei felt some of the chill in his heart dissipate.
Slowly withdrawing his hand, Yan Fei said softly, “Thank you, Princess. I’m fine. Don’t let Princess get cold. Come, let me carry you over.”
After saying that, Yan Fei picked up a small quilt from the bed, wrapped it around Mu Yunge’s body, and then carried her toward the chamber pot.
Upon reaching the chamber pot, Yan Fei used one arm to pull down her trousers and then helped her sit on it.
Soon, the sound of the water stopped. Yan Fei immediately picked up some soft toilet paper and handed it to her.
Normally, when the Princess needed to relieve herself, she was attended to by many eunuchs and maids. However, since the night was cold and the dew was heavy, to avoid catching a cold, they had to simplify things.
Then, Yan Fei picked up Mu Yunge and steadily returned to the inner room, placing her on the bed before going to fetch hot water.
A moment later, Yan Fei returned with a soft towel and washed Mu Yunge’s hands.
“Princess, it’s getting late. You should rest.” Yan Fei said after placing the towel on the shelf beside him.
Mu Yunge nodded and lay back down.
Then, she reached out from under the covers again to grasp Yan Fei’s hand.
Yan Fei reached out and gently took her plump, warm hand in his: “Alright, Princess, go to sleep.”
Mu Yunge hummed in agreement and then covered both their hands with the blanket to keep Yan Fei’s hands warm.
Seeing her thoughtful gesture, Yan Fei’s eyes warmed.
If he initially entered the palace for revenge, now he had no regrets about choosing this path.
If he hadn’t entered the palace, how would he have had the opportunity to accompany her as she grew up?
[Ding! The villain’s love point +30. The current love point is 60.]
Just as Mu Yunge closed her eyes, the system notification sounded.
Hearing Xiao Hei’s voice, Mu Yunge felt a surge of excitement for the first time.
It increased!?
Yan Chen had finally decided to give her a significant boost in love points?
It was worth it for her to deliberately choose the time when Prime Minister Qin appeared to visit the Emperor today!
Overjoyed, Mu Yunge slept exceptionally well.
The next day, Mu Yunge received news that the Emperor wanted the First Prince to go to Xiangguo Temple to pray for the deceased people.
After being deposed as crown prince, the First Prince was quite depressed for a while. However, upon hearing that the Emperor had ordered him to pray for the victims of the disaster, he was suddenly invigorated and went without complaint.
Because he knew that if he had handled things effectively and the eight million taels of silver hadn’t gone wrong, so many people wouldn’t have died in the disaster area!
It was all his fault!
The Emperor was pleased to hear that the First Prince showed no displeasure upon receiving the decree, but rather seemed to want to atone for his sins.
While the Emperor was satisfied, others began to speculate about the Emperor’s intentions.
Praying for the dead was a good thing for the First Prince, beneficial to his reputation.
Just then, an announcement came from outside the palace: “Reporting, Your Majesty, an envoy from the barbarian tribes beyond the Great Wall has delivered a letter, requesting an audience.”
