Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In this moment, the fifth princess made a silent vow to herself, determined to find a way to get closer to Su Bin.
Su Bin, being quite perceptive, noticed the intensity in her gaze as their eyes met, causing him to furrow his brows.
Although the fifth princess was disguised as a male guard, her curious expression puzzled him.
Initially, her look appeared aggressive and possessive, but it quickly transformed, resembling the effects of an aphrodisiac.
‘Who is she?’ Su Bin wondered.
Upon realizing the bastard crown prince standing beside her, Su Bin’s heart raced. Could she be the fifth princess?
Su Bin was privy to the unique shared interests of the fifth princess and the bastard crown prince, knowledge obtained through the extensive intelligence network of the Dragon Phoenix Hall.
Exploiting these shared secrets could be highly lucrative.
Su Bin knew the fifth princess led a rather libertine life and often ventured out of the palace in male guard attire. She was audacious, even going so far as to visit a brothel once.
If she truly was the fifth princess, was she showing an interest in him?
Su Bin felt a wave of disgust, prompting him to avert his gaze from the fifth princess.
Coincidentally, Qin Zhenzhen and Su Ning appeared in the midst of the commotion.
“Third Sister-in-law, just look at this! Third Brother looks incredibly dashing in that attire, especially atop that horse,” Qin Zhenzhen exclaimed, her heart racing as she gazed at Su Bin.
She had to admit that in her eyes, Su Bin was no longer the inexperienced young man she once knew, but a mature and strikingly handsome man.
Reflecting on what Su Bin had told her, it was no wonder her heart raced.
Initially, Qin Zhenzhen hadn’t intended to join the crowd, but she couldn’t resist her curiosity, ultimately persuading Su Ning. “Third Sister-in-law, please let me go see. I’d love to witness Third Brother in his red robe, riding that white horse.”
Su Ning responded, “If you’re so eager to see, we can have him stroll around the courtyard after he’s done with his swim in the capital and returns home.”
Unsatisfied with this, Qin Zhenzhen persisted. “That’s not the same. I want to see how popular he is!”
And, tempted by the prospect, Qin Zhenzhen also desired to witness Su Bin’s popularity, especially given that she was going to spend her first real wedding night with him. It was quite intriguing that he had risen to the rank of Primus despite starting at tenth place.
Could it be that even fate itself favored Su Bin?
Seeing her daughter-in-law craning her neck to catch a glimpse of Su Bin touring the capital, Qin Zhenzhen felt a sweet satisfaction. At this moment, Su Bin truly appeared enchanting.
He had started as the handsome but pitiable supporting character in the original story. How had he managed to win the heart of the protagonist?
As Su Bin drew closer, he remained oblivious to Qin Zhenzhen in the crowd. “Third Brother! Look over here, we’re here!”
Su Ning retained her rustic charm, raising her hand and waving her handkerchief as she shouted with vigor, her voice cutting through the noise and adulation of the crowd.
Both the women and their husbands turned their attention to Su Ning and Qin
Zhenzhen.
Su Bin, overjoyed, finally noticed them in the throng.
“Wife! Sixth Sister!” he called out, preparing to dismount from his horse.
He was overwhelmed with the desire to break through the crowd and embrace Qin Zhenzhen tightly, determined to make it clear to everyone that his heart belonged to her alone. He had no room for the affections of any other woman.
Yet, his intention to do so was halted by an official accompanying him. “Primus Su, protocol dictates that the newly appointed Primus cannot dismount from the horse during the journey to the capital.”
Su Bin raised his voice to explain, “But that’s my wife and Sixth Sister there. I need to dismount and speak with them.”
The official persisted, shaking his head. “These are the regulations, Primus Su, please understand.”
In a teasing tone, another bystander chimed in, “Well, if you want to chat with your wife, you can do it while on your horse.”
A playful smile tugged at the corners of someone else’s lips as they asked, “Are you planning to make a public declaration of your love to your wife, Primus?”
