Chapter 1571: Chapter 1571 Ah Chun’s Decoy Strategy_1

”But in the end, who secretly cast a witchcraft curse on His Majesty? And how did it accidentally transfer to Prince Xi? Has Consort Lv confessed?” Bai Ruozhu rubbed against his chest, making it wet.

His body tensed up as her tears smeared across his chest.

He began to reproach himself, realizing he should have taken more care of her and not let her feel so distressed.

”Consort Lv and her maid know nothing; they were just being used by someone else and are not privy to such affairs. However, I’ve had people watching that old eunuch, intending to follow the trail and get to the bottom of this.” Jiang Yichun kissed her forehead as he spoke, ”I was harsh with my words today, I will not be like this again. Can my wife forgive me?”

Bai Ruozhu held back her tears and pouted, ”Look at you, all wet from the rain. Go wash yourself quickly, you’ve gotten me all wet too!”

Jiang Yichun chuckled, clearly her tears but pretending it was his fault. He scooped her up in his arms and said, ”Since you’re wet too, why not have a proper wash? I shall attend to you!”

”Rogue!” Bai Ruozhu struggled in vain as he carried her, just as the servants outside announced they were bringing in hot water. Bai Ruozhu pinched him in urgency, and only then did he let her go and allowed the servants to carry in the bathtub.

But when he turned around, his wife had vanished!

The expression on Jiang Yichun’s face was incredibly rich at that moment; he glared at the empty air, his eyes widening in disbelief. Bai Ruozhu hid in her Space, watching him through the large screen and laughing so hard she almost ran out of breath.

”Bai Ruozhu, you’re playing unfair!” Jiang Yichun had no way to deal with her, so he just stood there, staring blankly.

Bai Ruozhu convulsed with laughter. She wanted to provoke him, and why not? With her Golden Finger, let him stare awkwardly.

After staring blankly for a while, Jiang Yichun simply came up with an idea. He stripped off his clothes entirely and said petulantly, ”You won’t come out, will you? Then I won’t wash either, I’ll just let myself air-dry. Since my wife doesn’t care for me anymore, so be it if I fall ill!”

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhu was flabbergasted. When had this dead man learned to be so shameless, thinking up such a faceless tactic?

However, she refused to yield!

Time ticked by second by second. Bai Ruozhu subconsciously took out a pocket watch to check the time and then saw through the big screen the goosebumps on his body and even his shivering. Angrily grinding her teeth she cursed in the Space, ”Is this man stupid? Using a Decoy Strategy on me, thinking I’d be scared?”

In her haste, she began pacing in circles in the Space, growing dizzy from it. Finally, with a heavy sigh, she emerged from the Space, grabbed him, and dragged him towards the bathtub.

Jiang Yichun’s eyes flashed with triumph but he quickly hid it, looking pitifully at her as he said, ”The water’s gone cold.”

When Bai Ruozhu saw his handsome face and that pitiful expression, she involuntarily gasped. Oh my, what deceiving beauty!

She gritted her teeth, pulled him, and with a thought, they plunged into the Space. Then, still furious, she pushed him into the Hot Spring Pool.

Standing by the edge, she looked down at him with a dark expression and said, ”I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you. If it weren’t for my concern about you catching a cold and passing it on to Dengdeng, I couldn’t care less about you!”

Jiang Yichun chuckled with a ’hehe’, revealing a row of white teeth and said with great pride, ”My wife, there’s no need to be so stubborn.”

She was about to argue when suddenly her ankle was yanked, causing her to lose her balance. Next thing she knew, she tumbled into the Hot Spring Pool, right on top of him.

As she crashed into his solid chest, Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but cry out in surprise. He however, laughed playfully and said, ”My wife is throwing herself into my arms.”

”Shameless!” Bai Ruozhu ground her teeth in anger, but was tightly embraced by him; in no time at all, her clothes fell away...

The next morning, as the sun rose and the sunlight pierced through the window paper onto Bai Ruozhu’s face, she groggily opened her eyes. She was so exhausted from the night before!

Suddenly, she saw a handsome face before her; his eyes were closed, and his thick eyelashes outlined his eyelids distinctly. His noble neck drew breaths gently, and his well-defined cheeks were irresistible, making one yearn to touch them.

She gazed at him, entranced, and raised her hand to trace his contours. The man she was with was so stunningly beautiful that it made her feel quite insecure.

”Had enough of looking? You’re drooling,” a lazy voice said as the closed eyes opened along with it.

It was as if Bai Ruozhu had been caught peeping, her face flushed to her neck in an instant, and her gaze hurriedly shifted away. ”Why haven’t you gone to the morning court? You’re late.”

Jiang Yichun smiled, turned her face back to look at him, and then said, ”The Emperor has granted me a day off. I’ve been too exhausted these days.”

Bai Ruozhu pushed his hand away and hurriedly said, ”That’s perfect, then. Let’s take our son and Xiaohei out of the city for some fun. I promised them before.”

She paused, then continued, ”Also, Furball said it wants to leave the city because it feels like something is calling it. I think we should go out and let it sense its surroundings; if it’s not safe, we’ll come back to the city immediately.”

”Alright, I’ll let you off for now,” Jiang Yichun was not very nervous; his voice was still lazy.

Bai Ruozhu kicked him angrily, ”Aren’t you tired? You beast!”

After getting up, washing up, and having breakfast with their son, they informed their parents and then took Dengdeng and Xiaohei out of the city.

The previous day’s drizzle had stopped by night, leaving the outside roads not too muddy, but instead the air was exceptionally fresh.

Traveling in the horse carriage towards the manor outside the city, Bai Ruozhu planned to take Dengdeng and Xiaohei to play around the manor. Then, she would let Xiaohei hunt in the mountains behind the manor, which she visited regularly.

After telling Little Dengdeng of her decision, he hugged Xiaohei’s neck with tearful eyes, insisting that Xiaohei was his good friend and didn’t want him to leave.

With no choice, Bai Ruozhu had to explain earnestly, ”Xiaohei needs to exercise too. If it doesn’t run and hunt in the wild, its health will decline and it might get sick.”

Upon hearing this, Little Dengdeng reluctantly agreed, ”Then I will visit Xiaohei often.”

Bai Ruozhu caressed her son’s head, ”Don’t worry, as long as mother needs Xiaohei, he will come to us immediately.”

Xiaohei, understanding human emotions, growled low from outside the carriage in agreement. It wasn’t as large as Sangta’s white tiger, and being black it could easily hide its form in the city without frightening the common people.

The carriage traveled for nearly two hours before finally arriving at the manor. After parking the carriage, Xiaohei carried Little Dengdeng off to play in the nearby woods, and Bai Ruozhu followed with Jiang Yichun, both laughing.

No sooner had they entered the woods than Furball emerged, desperately wriggling its body, as if urgently trying to get Bai Ruozhu’s attention.

”The thing that’s calling you is nearby?” Bai Ruozhu asked, puzzled.
