Chapter 82: Chapter 81: Shen Yinning, I Want to See You Vie for FavorLu Ying’s face was unreadable. Although he wasn’t skilled in music, he could still discern the quality of the tune. Bai Shuangshuang’s pipa playing had form but lacked spirit, incomparable to Shen Yinning’s by a great margin. He said, "So many years have passed, yet you still remember her." Bai Shuangshuang lowered her head, unconsciously tightening the strings: "I grew up with the lady, how could I not remember her? The lady was raised in luxury, but Gan State is a bitterly cold place. I don’t know how she’s faring now..." Lu Ying toyed with his thumb ring. Shen Yinning was exiled to Gan State, yet this woman was contentedly staying in the Eastern Palace as a concubine. He didn’t believe that she truly cared about Shen Yinning. He also knew that Shen Yunxi had sent Bai Shuangshuang into the Shen Garden today to vie for favor, hoping she would carry the imperial offspring. She thought that since Bai Shuangshuang was Shen Yinning’s main maid, mimicking Shen Yinning’s mannerisms, Lu Ying would be inclined to favor her. But he was well aware that even if Bai Shuangshuang imitated closely, she was not Shen Yinning. There is only one Shen Zhaozhao in the world. He said, "Leave, I’ll come to see you later in the night." After Bai Shuangshuang left, Lu Ying glanced at the writing desk: "After you went to Gan State, many things happened in the Capital. She’s now my concubine." Shen Yinning emerged, tidying her appearance as she said: "Back when the Duke Mansion was raided, I was powerless to protect everyone. If Bai Shuangshuang sought refuge with Shen Yunxi for her own survival, I do not blame her, for she is just a weak woman." However... Shen Yinning’s expression hardened. However, if one day she discovers that Bai Shuangshuang has done something to wrong her and the Shen Family, she will absolutely not spare her! Lu Ying said softly, "You are quite magnanimous. She was your maid. If I favor her, won’t you be upset?" Shen Yinning thought for a moment and replied: "You are the Crown Prince of the realm, it is your duty to ensure the continuation of the imperial lineage. If you like Bai Shuangshuang, you can naturally favor her. I have no title or status, how dare I be upset over such matters? Even if I’m jealous, I have no right to be." She believed she had answered well, but Lu Ying’s face revealed no joy or anger. In the silence, Lu Ying suddenly pulled her into his arms: "In the world of men and women, if one truly likes someone, it’s impossible not to be jealous. Shen Yinning, you are unmoved because you don’t have me in your heart." Lu Ying knew Shen Yinning’s body better than she did herself. Shen Yinning whimpered, gasping: "How could I not have Your Highness in my heart?! Naturally, I’m jealous, I just dare not show it! In the past, how many times was I punished for being jealous of my sisters by Your Highness?" As she spoke, her eyes reddened with grievance. Lu Ying recalled that perhaps the punishments had been too severe in the past, and his heart softened. He undid her clothing buttons and kissed her ivory slender neck: "I’ve changed my mind, I now want to see you vie for attention." Their breaths intertwined. Shen Yinning was teased into a state of blissful confusion, trembling uncontrollably in his embrace. This bastard of a man seemed to be seriously ill; when she vied for attention, he would berate and punish her, and now that she wasn’t, he forced her to. Isn’t that just insane! And Bai Shuangshuang was once her maid. He actually wanted her to vie for attention with her maid! She felt both ashamed and annoyed, and when she regained her senses, Lu Ying was already sitting on an official hat chair, looking at her with downcast eyes: "Shen Yinning, I want to see you vie for favor." Shen Yinning had already cursed him bitterly in her heart. She completely could not understand Lu Ying’s bizarre fetish! S~eaʀᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But she didn’t dare defy this man, so she reached out to tug his robe: "Brother Lu Ying..." "Hmm?" "Brother Lu Ying, please don’t go to favor Bai Shuangshuang tonight, alright?" "Why not?" "Because... because I will be jealous..." "Jealous? With your current status, do you have the right to be jealous? Shen Yinning, you are not only the sister of the Crown Princess Consort, but also a married woman. You shamelessly climbed into my bed, and now you even forbid me to favor Bai Shuangshuang; this is not proper etiquette." Though Shen Yinning knew these words were merely Lu Ying’s mischievousness in bed, she still blushed with embarrassment. She slowly sat up and personally unbuckled Lu Ying’s belt: "I, your wife, deeply love the Crown Prince. I beg Your Highness to favor me just for one night. I cannot live without you, and I am willing to do anything for you!" She wrapped her arms around Lu Ying’s neck, leaning back onto the fox fur mantle, coaxing him to lean over her. The woman lay under Lu Ying, her whole body sinking deep into the fox fur, her skin so dazzlingly pale that it was even smoother and more delicate than the luxurious fur. Lu Ying’s tall and sturdy figure made her seem so small and delicate in comparison that her body was almost invisible from the side. Lu Ying looked down at her, his Adam’s apple moving, and croaked, "Wretched woman, aren’t you afraid that White Attendant will get angry by seducing me like this?" Shen Yinning’s phoenix eyes were dazed: "Another day... another day I’ll personally apologize to White Attendant... Tonight I just want to serve Your Highness well, please don’t go to White Attendant’s room..." From dusk till night fell, after Bai Shuangshuang had bathed, she waited and waited but Lu Ying never came. Unable to resist, she approached the study, only to be stopped by the captivating sounds coming from afar. Somewhat embarrassed, she slipped a silver ingot to Gui Quan, inquiring: "Eunuch Gui, didn’t His Highness promise to visit my room tonight? Whom is he favoring?" Gui Quan accepted the ingot, grinning, "His Highness is the Crown Prince, naturally, he favors whom he wishes. In this cold weather, White Attendant should hurry back inside so as not to catch a chill. I doubt His Highness’s affair here will conclude shortly." Bai Shuangshuang bit her lip hard. Three years. Ever since the Shen Family’s downfall, she had been trapped in the Dharma Hall for three whole years. She sold her conscience, betraying her mistress and lady, yet the prosperity promised to her by Shen Yunxi and Nurse Zhang was nothing but a lie! In these three years, she developed a deep hatred for Shen Yunxi and Nurse Zhang, cursing them day and night before Buddha! Now that she was finally released, the Crown Princess Consort had specifically said that if she couldn’t conceive the imperial progeny this time, she’d have to go back to transcribing scriptures. She would never again have the chance to serve in bed! She glanced at the decorative window but dared not enter rashly, leaving reluctantly. As she turned around, she suddenly heard a high-pitched cry from the study. That voice... Bai Shuangshuang was struck by a bolt from the blue. How did it sound exactly like her lady’s?!
