"You can take it yourself."

"The peach tree is young and tender, its blossoms are bright and beautiful... Is its beauty lovely?"

"My husband, Zhuozhuo is very satisfied."

Upon hearing this, Wang Kuan was overcome with emotion.

He lowered his head again, pressing his lips tightly against the one beneath him, passionate and tender.

The sounds of panting and coquettish moans mingled in the room, like a moving melody.

In the candlelight, the two figures embraced tightly, a scene of tenderness and romance.

Chapter 16 Do You Know? + The Young Swordsman of the Song Dynasty 16

Two years ago, the Song Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty clashed on the border. The war escalated and dragged on for a long time, with neither side able to achieve an overwhelming victory.

Until the Battle of Qichuan Village, the Song Dynasty's border troops fell into a trap at Qichuan Village and were ambushed by the Xia army. In this great battle, the Song army was almost completely wiped out.

However, one person survived, namely Yuan Boqi, who was hailed as the God of War.

After this battle, the Song Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty signed a peace treaty.

Two years later, it was revealed in the imperial court that Chancellor Fan had arbitrarily altered the peace treaty with Xia two years prior.

Yuan Boqi was a member of the Fan family and the only survivor of that war.

Therefore, Liang Zhu, the commander of the Xuanwu Army under the Palace Guard, was ordered to capture Yuan Boqi.

On this day, Wang Kuan, who had been married for more than a month, had not returned to the Imperial Academy for a long time. In fact, it was not appropriate for him to stay at the Imperial Academy now.

However, he had a dormitory at the Imperial Academy, where he kept his usual belongings, and many of his classmates were also there. So, Wang Kuan returned to the Imperial Academy this time to see his old friends.

Inside the dormitory, Yuan Zhongxin was gambling with a group of people. Everyone was surprised to see Wang Kuan arrive.

"Isn't this our Prince Consort? This small temple of the Imperial Academy can't possibly contain such a great figure as you."

Yuan Zhongxin had a big smile on his face, while the others said goodbye to Wang Kuan and left quickly.

"Why bother? Didn't you come to the wedding? I thought we were friends."

These words instantly made Yuan Zhongxin laugh, and then he leaned close to Wang Kuan's ear and asked him gossipy questions.

"What's the princess like? Although she's extremely beautiful, everyone in Bianjing knows she's highly skilled in martial arts. You haven't been abused by your family, have you?"

These words instantly brought a smile to Wang Kuan's face. Even though Yuan Zhongxin's question was somewhat ill-intentioned, the thought of newlywed life always made him unable to help but show a sweet expression.

"The princess has a wonderful temperament and is the most lovable person in the world. If the princess really lays a hand on me, it can only be because I have made a mistake."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhongxin felt a chill run down his spine and took two steps back.

"Wang Kuan, what happened to you after you got married? You're so mushy, I can't stand it!"

Wang Kuan smiled calmly; he was telling the truth.

Being with someone you love makes every day a happy one.

Even if the two of them were just sitting in the study reading in silence, the atmosphere in the air felt warm and tender.

However, the person in front of him probably wouldn't understand this, since the other party didn't have a wife, but Wang Kuan expressed his understanding.

You'll understand after you get married.

"I really can't stand you. Forget it, let's get down to business. What are you doing here?"

"I've brought a calligraphy scroll; the princess wants to take a look, and also to visit you old friends."

After saying this, Wang Kuan turned around and went to get something from his cabinet.

This calligraphy work was left by a famous artist. After chatting with him, the princess said she wanted to see it.

Just then, Liang Zhu led the Imperial Guards in.

Since Liang Zhu couldn't get the truth from Yuan Boqi, she decided to find a breakthrough from Yuan Boqi's younger brother, Yuan Zhongxin.

Then, Liang Zhu was shocked to find that the prince consort was also there.

"Your humble servant greets the Imperial Son-in-Law."

Why did Instructor Liang lead the Imperial Guards to storm the Imperial Academy?

Liang Zhu could only give a brief explanation of the matters at court.

"This matter concerns the court's handling of a case, so please, Your Highness, do not interfere."

Half an hour later, Wang Kuan accompanied Yuan Zhongxin to the place where Yuan Boqi was imprisoned, and found that he was under house arrest in his own home.

However, Wang Kuan did not allow him to go in. Instead, he waited until Yuan Zhongxin came out before asking what had happened.

Afterwards, Yuan Zhongxin was expelled from the Imperial Academy by Zhang Xueguan, and the whole situation became complicated.

"You don't need to argue with the academic officials on my behalf. Before, you were just a student at the Imperial Academy, and no one paid attention to what you did."

Now that you're the imperial son-in-law, if you do anything outrageous, the remonstrance officials will immediately impeach you. Don't get involved in my affairs!

Yuan Zhongxin issued a warning, but Wang Kuan had a complicated expression.

"This is unfair."

"The world is inherently unfair, so what can you do about it!"

"Wang has always sought justice, and when injustice is committed, he cannot stand idly by."

Yuan Zhongxin: "Does your princess know that you have this kind of personality?"

"of course."

"Fine, whatever. I'll see how long you can stick with me."

"There is no legal basis for this matter. If you are willing, I can take you to see the Crown Prince. The Emperor is currently having the Crown Prince take over the affairs of the court."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhongxin immediately stopped in his tracks, then smiled and patted Wang Kuan on the shoulder.

“Wang Kuan, Prince Consort, I almost forgot, you are the Crown Prince’s brother-in-law, a member of the imperial family! We’re practically related, aren’t we?”

Wang Kuan reached out and brushed Yuan Zhongxin's arm away, then took a step back and spoke.

"Your brother's case should be handled impartially. If he has committed a crime, he should be imprisoned. If he has betrayed the Song Dynasty, the Privy Council and the Ministry of Justice should intervene. The current house arrest is unreasonable!"

However, halfway through their discussion, Zhao Jian suddenly dropped an invitation card down.

She invited Yuan Zhongxin to the newly opened brothel, Huanmen, that night, and hinted that she could help rescue Yuan Boqi.

Wang Kuan recognized the person in front of him at a glance, and he realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, after he found an opportunity to leave Yuan Zhongxin, Zhao Jian appeared in front of him.

"I knew you'd recognize me!"

Wang Kuan was helpless.

"The princess attended my wedding with the princess, though she came secretly, which was somewhat incomprehensible."

But I can roughly guess that the princess's current status is not suitable for being exposed to the public.

Zhao Jian nodded.

"There are some things that I didn't mean to hide from you, but they involve court secrets. I'm sure the princess didn't tell you either, because it's not appropriate for the princess to reveal these things."

Wang Kuan, do not interfere in Yuan Zhongxin's affairs.

Zhao Jian's words carried a warning, and Wang Kuan, thinking about the series of events that had occurred that day, subconsciously asked a question.

“Yuan Boqi has not been convicted, and Yuan Zhongxin is even more innocent. Although the princess’s actions are mysterious, they must be related to the court. Why are you being so aggressive?”

Zhao Jian was helpless.

"Don't worry, what I did today was not to harm Yuan Zhongxin. I just need his help with some things, so I need to test him tonight."

"Your Highness, please don't show up tonight. I can guarantee that Yuan Zhongxin will be fine."

"Besides, although this brothel is a place of disguise, I don't think it's appropriate for the prince consort to appear here. The princess will definitely be angry!"

This joke made Wang Kuan laugh instantly.

However, he was relieved at the moment. Yuan Boqi was unable to find out the truth for the time being, but Yuan Zhongxin would be fine for the time being.

In that case, he can rest assured.

In the evening, Wang Kuan returned to the princess's residence. After the marriage, Wang Kuan lived with the princess in the princess's residence.

Upon entering the bedroom, Wang Kuan saw the princess sitting by the study window reading a book.

Wang Kuan couldn't help but smile, then stepped forward, squatted down, and hugged the princess from behind.

Chapter 17 Do You Know? + The Young Swordsman of the Song Dynasty 17

"Has the princess just taken a bath?"

People who have just bathed still have a damp feeling on their bodies, but the princess's hair is not wet, which is why Wang Kuan has this question.

"I know you're wondering, I used my internal energy to dry my hair."

Even without hair dryers in ancient times, couldn't she dry her hair herself? There were plenty of ways.

Tang Yu liked to use his divine powers to do some small things in life.

You can't possibly go through all that trouble to find a bunch of handkerchiefs and slowly dry yourself just to hide your incompetence; that's too much trouble.

Therefore, those who shared a bed with her and spent every day with her could notice her slight abnormalities, but Tang Yu didn't care.

Must one suppress their abilities for the rest of their life just to fit in and live like an ordinary person?

There's no need for that; it's better not to get married at all.

Wang Kuan was already used to the princess's unusual behavior, so he didn't think much of it.

From the very beginning, the princess had said she had a secret.

Kuan greatly admired the princess's abilities.
