Chapter 351 - Happenings in Shanjing (8)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Princess An Yina changed into a new set of clothes that were identical to the ones torn by Wuma Jun. She left the palace, claiming she was praying to have a child. If she went home with a different set of clothes, her husband would grow suspicious, no matter how stupid he was.
An Yina always did things very cautiously. Even though she had many admirers around her, she could handle them, and all the small details, perfectly.
Every time she went to meet Wuma Jun, she would always ask her trusted servant girl to bring two sets of identical clothes as spares.
Wuma Jun’s gaze lingered on her beautiful body. He felt restless while he watched her put on her clothes.
If it was not already late, he would have really wanted to make An Yina stay and go wild with her. She was very unrestrained in bed. She played so many tricks that were too much for his eyes to take in. They had tried almost every sexy trick in order to please each other’s bodies.
To be honest, the most popular courtesans in the brothels were not even as bold and skilled as Princess An Yina.
The reason he clung onto An Yina for so long and treated her politely but without sincerity––besides the fact that she lived in the palace––was because her body was indeed very attractive.
Wuma Jun had now entered into court politics. He still did not have a legal wife, but he had many concubines. He could not even remember how many high-ranked servants he had played with. However, the women were too reserved and boring. Making love with them was like playing with a piece of wood.
“Haven’t you seen enough?” Princess An Yina looked at him flirtatiously. It was not even enjoyable enough.
“Of course not. I can’t wait to die of fatigue on top of you,” Wuma Jun answered naturally.
“You dirty thing! You’re not serious.” An Yina pouted in a flirtatious manner while she put on a bamboo hat. She replied, “It’s late now. I should go back. If I return home late, your second brother will definitely get angry. It wouldn’t be as easy for me to leave the palace anymore.”
Wuma Jun was upset. He really did not want to hear An Yina mention his second brother.
“Tsk. Even if you go home early, can he give you a child?” Wuma Jun scoffed. Although his second brother was not an eunuch and his penis was functional, he could not get a woman pregnant.
He knew that from An Yina. Wuma Jun was shocked to hear it. After that, he ordered someone to investigate it in secret, and found the old imperial maids and female officials who had been released from the palace. After spending tremendous efforts, it was confirmed that what An Yina said was true.
His second brother was indeed a naturally impotent person who could not get women pregnant.
The unmentionable disease was not innate, but his second brother was harmed by a woman in the harem when he was young. When he discovered it later, it could no longer be rectified.
If his penis was functional but he could not get women pregnant, how was he different from a eunuch?
Princess An Yina smiled lovingly and replied, “Yes, he can’t make me pregnant. So haven’t I come out to pray for a child?” As she was speaking, she gently placed her hand over her lower abdomen, as if there was a life underneath it.
Wuma Jun secretly muttered, “A woman’s heart is the most vicious.” He added, “It’s not easy to pray for a child. You have to come see me more often.”
It was actually ridiculous. An Yina clearly knew that her husband could not make her pregnant; they had no children although they had been married for years. She still pretended to be ignorant and bore the sin of having no children by herself. She repeatedly left the palace in the name of praying for a child, but in fact, she was meeting her lover in secret.
Tsk, tsk. In a certain sense, it was true that she was praying for a child; however, she did not pray to the Buddha statue holding a child, but to other men instead.
Jiang Pengji said emotionally, “The poor second prince. He must have the Hulunbuir Grasslands on his head.”
Xu Ke eavesdropped as well. However, it was very difficult for him to listen to them because An Yina and Wuma Jun had already packed up and they were a little far away from the corner of the wall.
“The Hulunbuir Grasslands? Where is that?” He had never heard of this place in the world of five kingdoms and nine states.
“Its location isn’t important. What matters is that grasslands are green.” Jiang Pengji crossed her arms in front of her chest and smirked. She looked happy.
Xu Ke’s facial expression subtly stiffened. “Your wit really… makes it difficult for people to refute.”
Rather than saying she was witty, it was better to say that she had a derogatory mouth!
“Are you really not angry?” Xu Ke did not understand. He knew that his Langjun was not on good terms with the second niangzi. The two of them did not look like a family at all; they were still siblings who shared the same father, but different mothers. He should have been furious that his future brother-in-law, Wuma Jun, was running wild.
Wuma Jun was about to get married, but the bridegroom, Wuma Jun, seduced a married woman, which offended public decency and feudal ethics.
“Why should I be angry?” Jiang Pengji sneered. “Wuma Jun is just a scoundrel. My stepsister has great ambitions, but her fate is miserable. If the two of them are obedient, they can live for a lifetime even if they don’t like each other. If they do evil things together, then they’re made for each other.”
Xu Ke did not dare to speak. As a subordinate, it was not appropriate for him to meddle in his Langjun’s family affairs. Xu Ke was still a bit confused. He did not expect for Wuma Jun to be involved with Princess An Yina.
He had heard the gossip about the two people from Jiang Pengji, but he did not expect to hear a live version of it after so many years.
“The tea is getting cold. Drink it.” Jiang Pengji returned to the table and looked unperturbed, as if the pornography next door did not affect her at all.
In fact, it was true. No matter how they moaned, they sounded like puffing pigs to Jiang Pengji, who was extremely demanding or actually fussy in spiritual pursuits. It did not induce a single bit of desire in her.
Xu Ke could not achieve such a manner. As someone who had just gotten married and left his wife just a few days after his marriage, he could not withstand the seduction. He secretly adjusted his breathing and suppressed his restlessness. He returned to being calm and unruffled.
In the tea room, both of them sat across each other, drank some tea, and discussed some matters in Shangjing in low voices. On the other hand, Princess An Yina was not so composed.
She originally planned to leave in her bamboo hat, but when she turned after coming out of the tea room, she saw a servant girl entering the tea room next door. Obviously, the tea room had customers.
She had met Wuma Jun in secret and had sex with him. Did the customers in the tea room hear them? How much had they heard? In an instant, countless complicated thoughts flashed through her mind. The crouching demon in her was ready to stir up trouble. Her murderous intentions slowly rose.
“You. Come here.” An Yina stood in the corner of the room, then signaled the maid to come over when she had come out of the tea room.
The servant girl saw that Princess An Yina was wearing a thick veil that covered her entire face, but she was wearing very expensive clothes. She did not dare to offend her and hurriedly went forward to give her a bow. She asked gently, “How can I help you?”
“Are there any customers in that tea room?” An Yina asked. She was becoming more and more restless.
She wanted to take advantage of Wuma Jun and her stupid husband. Her plans had already been mapped out, so she did not want something to go wrong at a crucial moment.
The servant girl did not know the inside story and replied softly, “Yes, there are.”
Sure enough!
