Chapter 1080: Chapter 880: Embrace

That look in his eyes, he grew more enamored the more he watched. If it weren’t for the crown prince also being there, he would have proposed to re-establish the heir yet again. Even if he didn’t depose the crown prince, he would appoint Fengfeng as the highest-ranking prince, allowing him to replace the crown prince at any moment.

...

Upon leaving the Emperor’s palace, the princes began to return to their respective residences. The Third Prince, already of age, had his own dwelling outside, while Princes Five and Six, still minors, lived within the palace. The crown prince naturally returned to his own palace, and Fengfeng went back to Huaxi Palace.

Since they were headed in different directions, the princes departed separately, but the Third Prince caught up with the crown prince in time.

"Third Younger Brother, you have something on your mind?" Seeing him, the crown prince knew what he wanted to say.

Surely it was to give Fengfeng a thorough assessment.

As expected, the Third Prince soon spoke up, "Eldest Brother, don’t you feel that our father’s expression when he looks at our eldest brother has always been strange?"

"Admiration, perhaps?" The crown prince was unmoved; he was aware of the Emperor’s intentions. A son like Fengfeng was someone any father would admire.

Moreover, which parents in the world don’t play favorites, preferring the most obedient, the smartest, or the most outstanding child?

"Older Brother, I say this for your own good. You need to be wary of our eldest brother. Suddenly, he has emerged, and you truly feel no sense of crisis?"

"Sense of crisis?" The crown prince smiled, "Thank you for your concern, Younger Brother. This is our father’s empire; I will follow his arrangements."

"Older Brother, this is not about who owns the world. You’ve grown up in the palace since youth, born of the Empress, and since the age of fifteen, you’ve been helping our father with state affairs – a record of distinguished achievements. But what about our eldest brother? No matter how capable he is, he previously served Dajin. Right now, I feel aggrieved on your behalf. I think it’s wrong for Our Father to purposely use him to provoke us."

"Enough, Younger Brother!" The crown prince, looking at him, said, "I’ve told you, our father has his reasons for what he does, and you need not feel aggrieved for me."

"Older..." The Third Prince stopped pursuing him.

However, he felt that he had achieved his objective and turned away, muttering, "Let’s see how long you can keep up this act."

...

When Nan Feng saw Fengfeng, she sensed something different about him.

Lately, she had been feeling distressed, but now, seeing his demeanor, she thought he looked full of vim and vigor, as if he had returned to his former self.

"Fengfeng, I went to the training grounds today and later dined with Father," Fengfeng said.

Nan Feng was about to step forward to hang up Fengfeng’s clothes, but a palace maid on the side had already taken the clothes he had shed. So, Nan Feng stopped and merely asked Fengfeng, "Are you tired, do you want to rest for a while?"

"Yes, by the way, where’s Xiaobao?"

"She’s already asleep," Nan Feng replied.

Upon hearing this, Fengfeng felt a bit gleeful. He couldn’t help smiling at Nan Feng and then pulled her into his arms, "Will Fengfeng join me for a little rest, then?"

Nan Feng, held in Fengfeng’s embrace, felt her heartbeat quicken. She then looked up at Fengfeng, answering with a single word, "Yes."

Fengfeng smiled, kissed Nan Feng’s neck, then her forehead and lips, before lifting her in his arms.

Nan Feng’s heart raced even faster, her breathing becoming hurried in anticipation. Though he said he wanted a short rest, he wouldn’t be thinking of... would he?

Having regained his strength, Fengfeng still had energy to expend, which is why he had gone to the training ground. Yet he still didn’t feel satisfied, so now as he held Nan Feng, his movements were naturally a bit more rough, and she quickly understood his intention.
