C222 Red Earth Past

"Then I am relieved." I breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, I remembered what the emperor said today. My expression immediately turned grim. I looked Bai Jing in the eyes and pinched his cheek as I spoke fiercely.

"But why did the emperor say that Baili Ningxiang came for you today? Could it be that the two of you are having an affair again?"

There was a vinegar taste in my voice that I hadn't noticed myself.

Bai Jing frowned slightly. When he mentioned Baili Ningxiang, his eyes were filled with disgust.

"You have to be careful of that Baili Ningxiang. She is a very jealous and competitive person. Bai Jing looked at me worriedly.

"What has Baili Ningxiang done in the past that makes you so disgusted?" I looked at the cold air coming out from Bai Jing and asked in confusion.

Bai Jing told me a secret of the past. Back then, when Baili Ningxiang was just born, she was already engaged to a child by the crown prince, but the crown prince became Broken Sleeve. After coming to the Xia Rong Country, Baili Ningxiang was extremely dissatisfied with her future husband.

Baili Ningxiang was the only princess of the Baili Country, so she was naturally Princess Baili's treasure.

After returning to the Baili Country, Baili Ningxiang begged her royal father to break off the engagement with the crown prince of the Xia Rong Country. However, marriage was a big matter for both countries, no matter how much her royal father loved her, he would never let her off.

This was the first time Baili Ningxiang had been rejected by her royal father. She was furious, and went on a rampage from one to two, and three times she hanged herself.

In the end, the two had agreed to let the two children choose the people they wanted. Baili Ningxiang had come to the Xia Rong Country to look over all the princes, and it was said that she had her eyes on the current emperor.

It was rumored that Baili Ningxiang was playing in the imperial garden when she coincidentally met the Second Prince, who was practicing the sword.

However, the prince rejected him. The Hundred Miles Emperor also felt that the Second Prince was the most unremarkable prince out of all the princes, hence he did not agree to Baili Ningxiang's request.

The Crown Prince was even more so, he actually brought his male pet to the mansion, there was no chance of success in this marriage.

Afterwards, the crown prince Xia Junchen was crippled and the second prince Xia Junyan ascended the throne. Emperor Baili regretted his decision back then and wanted Baili Ningxiang to join the Xia Rong Country's harem, but Baili Yan refused.

When Bai Jing said this, I felt like I had heard a book. Why was it so complicated? I felt like I couldn't make sense of the complicated relationships between the characters.

Bai Jing also said that Baili Ningxiang was a despotic person back in the Baili Country. His own palace maids would randomly beat and kill anyone they didn't like.

If her palace maids had even the slightest bit of beauty, she would do everything she could to torture them and disfigure their faces. There were many palace maids that had been ravaged by her in the palace, and it was only because of her ruthlessness that the Emperor wasn't willing to marry her.

"Such a wondrous weirdo, wouldn't the beauty of the Baili Country's Imperial Palace become distorted?" I was shocked at Baili Ningxiang's capabilities.

I realized that Bai Jing really hates Baili Ningxiang, and couldn't help but frown after hearing her name. Then, her eyes were filled with viciousness, as if she wished for nothing else but to be dealt with quickly.

"Tell me, how did you end up provoking so many rotten dates? A Sun Rouer and a Baili Ningxiang are both not good people. Shouldn't all of the girls here be well-educated girls? They are as gentle as water, I didn't think that they would be Black Widow, whose hearts were filled with poison." I shivered, mourned for the men here, faced with these horrible hungry women.

Bai Jing choked on my words. "This King has nothing to do with them." Bai Jing was anxious to explain.

"Do you dare? I won't forgive you." I waved my fist at Bai Jing.

Bai Jing was amused by my actions. He used his large hands to wrap around my fist, "I don't dare, but you are enough for me in this life." Bai Jing's eyes shone as he spoke.

I was captivated by his appearance. Then, under my foolish and deep feelings, Bai Jing quickly covered my lips. I secretly became angry, but was once again conquered by his beauty. If not, I must find a way to not be moved by his beauty.

Bai Jing extended this kiss for a long time. I felt that my consciousness had already become blurry, so I could only rely on the breath that Bai Jing gave me to breathe.

Bai Jing's kissing skill was getting more and more powerful, but after half a day, I indignantly said, "Are you sure you haven't secretly kissed anyone before? How could you kiss someone so well?" I am also a shameless person, I'm afraid no woman in their generation would be able to ask such questions.

Bai Jing's eyes were filled with emotion. He smiled at me and then pondered seriously, "If I said there really was a connection." Bai Jing pondered for a moment before speaking with a frown.

My heart tightened as my fists clenched tightly. Bai Jing instantly smiled when he saw how nervous I was. His smile was like a flower as he said, "It's in my dreams with you."

I was stunned for a moment before I understood what Bai Jing meant. My face instantly flushed red. Why did Bai Jing's skin become thicker than mine? I couldn't beat him, so I sighed to myself.

Fortunately, the arrival of Jianyi broke the awkwardness and silence. For the first time, I found Jianyi very pleasing to the eye.

Jian Yi was frightened by my burning gaze. He thought that I was up to something. He looked at me warily. I felt helpless. Right now, I am sincerely thanking him.

"Your Highness, the princess' room has been properly arranged." Jian Yi and Bai Jing said with their heads lowered.

"Alright." Bai Ming nodded his head before turning to me and saying, "Let's go take a look at your new courtyard." Bai Jing immediately came over and pulled my hand. When he saw our tightly clasped hands, his face was filled with shock.

I still felt a little awkward, so I struggled symbolically for a bit, but Bai Jing pulled me even tighter and dragged me out of the room. I turned around to explain to Jian Yi, but Jian Yi followed behind us, and when he saw me turn around, he even looked at me with a face of admiration.

The two courtyards were only a step away from each other when I entered the courtyard that Bai Jing had arranged for me. It was astonishing, as it was much larger than my original courtyard. Even the space for activities was much larger as well.
