Chapter 5 — The Lord Changes Destiny

So close that we can clearly see his long eyelashes, like two small brushes, casting a faint shadow under his eyes. On him there was a cool herbal scent, mixed with a bit of the clean scent of locust, entering my nose. In both my previous life and this life, I have never been so intimate with any man. For a moment, everyone stiffened. It seemed he noticed my confusion, a smile spreading in his eyes. He withdrew his hand but still did not move away. Immediately after that, he lifted up his shirt again and knelt on one knee in front of me. My heart jumped slightly. I was just about to tell him to stand up, but he tilted his head slightly and gently pressed his warm face to the back of my hand. The feeling was both soft and warm. Like a cat with its claws retracted, carefully rubbing against you, both probing and carrying a bit of coquettishness. "Your Highness." Van Te's voice was very light, carrying a sincerity that could captivate people's hearts. "This official has admired you for a long time. Now it's very difficult to come to your side, I only wish to follow you every day. Even... even if you think of me as a toy, it's okay."As he spoke, his pink lips closed. opened, but his eyes did not dare to look directly at me, he only bowed low. Along his elongated neck is almost transparent white skin, hidden deep under the blue collar. It was obvious that he had such a bold and disrespectful posture, but the tips of his ears quietly turned red. My heart beats very fast, the impact makes my chest numb. The throat also becomes dry and thirsty, as if something is blocking it. I opened my mouth, and after a while I found my voice again, barely able to utter a word. "You..." "What are you two doing!" 10 A cold shout came from the side, like a basin of cold water poured straight down on my head. I suddenly turned my head and saw Ta Quan Lan standing not far away, carrying several delicate wooden boxes in his hands. At this time, he was looking at the intimate position of me and Van Te. His handsome face was sometimes blue and white, like a palette that had been knocked over. "In the middle of the day, you two... how could you two be like that!" He was so angry that his voice trembled. Van Te, as if nothing had happened, slowly stood up, even straightened his clothes before slowly asking back: "What should we do?" He took a step forward, leaving no trace to block me behind, his voice was very reasonable: "The man is not married, the woman is not married. I love the princess, am I expressing my feelings to you, is there something wrong?" "I don't know how to be shameless!" Ta Quan Lan shouted, his eyes crossed Van Te's, staring at me. "I clearly agreed to marry you, why do you still do this kind of thing?" Hearing these words, the fire that had been suppressed for a long time in my heart immediately flared up. The ungrateful words that he said that day in front of the Princess Truong, that he could marry me but absolutely would not marry me, still echoed in his ears. I pushed Van Te away, stepped up to face his eyes: "That day I never nodded. Why are you so sure that I will definitely marry you?" Looking at his surprised face, I coldly laughed and continued: "I am a princess, why do I have to marry into the house of a man who does not love me and suffer? Of course, in life's fate, you must find someone you like." My words were like a dagger, piercing through. his self-righteous disguise. On the contrary, Ta Quan Lan was so angry that he burst out laughing. His eyes looked at me with heavy disappointment. "Today I found out that you are a person who indulges in worldly pleasures. It's true... I misread you." As soon as he finished speaking, Van Te standing next to him also burst into laughter. "Master Ta Cam is truly noble." His voice carried

sarcasm. "We are originally worldly people, of course we have to live comfortably." "On the contrary, Master Ta Cam looks down on us like that, are you an angel from heaven, without love and lust?" I also looked at Ta Quan Lan coldly, without saying a word. He was blocked to the point of not being able to refute, his chest heaving violently. Finally, as if he couldn't bear it any longer, he threw the things in his hand to the ground. "I really saw you wrong!" Leaving these words behind, he immediately waved his sleeves and left. Several delicate brocade boxes fell to the ground. The lid of the box opened, and inside rolled out a few slices of ginseng and lingzhi, both of which are valuable medicinal herbs. But I just glanced at it and told my subordinates: "Take it outside and throw it away. In the future, if Ta Quan Lan comes, just chase him away, no need to notify." Ta Quan Lan was chased away, but Van Te was not chased away. Anyway, his posture on one knee that day was truly pitiful. If I kick him out again, perhaps he will really be laughed at by the whole capital. Not to mention... not to mention he is really beautiful, his eyebrows and eyes are like a painting, and when he smiles, he has two faint dimples. Staying in the palace, it is truly a beautiful and fun scene. Outsiders only thought that I was conquered by Van Te's ecstatic medical skills, so I especially favored him.
