Chapter 92 Your Highness, You Can Only Be My Princess
About an hour later, it was already broad daylight.
The once bustling dock is much quieter today.
Cargo ships remained docked, laborers continued to carry sacks up and down the gangplanks, and vendors' stalls remained open as usual.
But everyone moved quietly and spoke in hushed tones.
Because the official boat bearing the name of the Princess was moored on the riverbank.
The laborers carrying the goods passed by as quietly as possible, even holding their breath, for fear of disturbing the nobles on the ship.
The morning sunlight streamed into the room through the wooden windows, casting dappled shadows on the carpet.
Li Yunrui had already woken up.
She lay on her side, propping her head up with her hand. Her nightgown was made of thin silk, which clung to the curves of her increasingly fuller body.
Beneath the slightly open neckline, her sexy collarbone was faintly visible.
She watched with great interest as Wu Feng lay asleep by the bedside.
Wu Feng's breathing was even and deep, his cheek pressed against the brocade edge of her bed, he was sleeping soundly.
Li Yunrui reached out her other hand and gently touched his eyelashes with her fingertips.
Wu Feng's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.
His vision gradually cleared, and then he met a stunningly beautiful, languid, smiling face.
And then there are those hazy, captivating curves hidden beneath the sheer fabric.
"Your Highness," Wu Feng sat up, "why didn't you wake me up?"
He was about to stand up.
Li Yunrui pressed his head down, preventing him from getting up.
"No rush," she said in a soft, seductive voice, like a cat just waking up, "I don't want to get up yet."
Wu Feng had no choice but to remain seated on the carpet, looking up at her: "Your Highness, are you still feeling dizzy?"
"I'm very comfortable now." Li Yunrui's fingers slid through his hair and landed on his cheek. "What time did you arrive last night? What did you do in Kyoto?"
"I arrived around 5 a.m.," Wu Feng answered honestly. "Seeing that Your Highness was sleeping soundly, I didn't wake you. However, something big happened in Kyoto last night..."
"Something important?" Li Yunrui became interested. "Tell me about it."
Wu Feng then recounted the story of the huge flock of birds that appeared over Kyoto the previous night.
From flocks of birds darkening the sky, to hovering over the Imperial Household Agency and the Imperial Palace, to the forced lifting of the curfew in Kyoto, and then to the flocks flying away from Kyoto.
"A huge flock of birds..." Li Yunrui was slightly stunned.
Just from Wu Feng's description, she could imagine what a spectacular sight the sky above Kyoto must have been last night.
"A miracle..." she murmured.
"Your Highness need not worry, we are no longer in the capital," Wu Feng said. "Whether it's a miracle or a harbinger of impending doom, these are none of our concern."
Li Yunrui slowly came to her senses.
She called softly towards the door, "Chunmei."
The door was pushed open, and Chunmei bowed: "Your Highness."
"Contact Kyoto," Li Yunrui ordered. "I need to know exactly what happened in Kyoto last night."
"Yes, Your Highness," Chunmei replied, closing the door to make the arrangements.
After that, Li Yunrui lost interest in flirting with Wu Feng.
Wu Feng had hot water brought in and helped Li Yunrui wash up in the room, then changed her into a black casual outfit.
After they had finished getting ready, the two went to the dining hall for breakfast.
After having breakfast and closing the door, Wu Feng took out a small wooden box from his pocket.
"Your Highness," he handed over the box, "this is some medicine I prepared to relieve seasickness. After taking it, you won't get seasick anymore."
Li Yunrui frowned slightly as he looked at the simple, antique box.
"I don't feel dizzy right now," she said. "I don't want to take medicine."
She feels perfectly fine now and doesn't need any medication at all. On the contrary, the thought of the taste of medicine makes her feel nauseous.
Wu Feng opened the box directly.
In an instant, a faint fragrance wafted through the air.
The fragrance was unique; it wasn't strong, but it brought a sense of peace and tranquility.
Li Yunrui's eyes brightened slightly, and the furrowed brow relaxed.
Even that nausea disappeared.
She was a princess who had seen countless rare medicinal herbs, and she immediately realized that this was not an ordinary seasickness medicine.
"Your Highness," Wu Feng said, handing the opened box forward, "this medicine tastes very good, not bitter at all, and melts in your mouth, so you don't need to worry."
Li Yunrui's expression became somewhat inscrutable.
She asked in a soft, seductive voice, "Little Wu, where did you get this medicine?"
Seeing that Li Yunrui was about to ask all sorts of questions, Wu Feng simply used his "killer move".
A wicked smile appeared on his face.
"My dear prince," he leaned closer and put his arm around Li Yunrui's waist, "you can't not eat."
Li Yunrui's body stiffened slightly.
"This..." Wu Feng lowered his voice, his tone carrying a dangerous, coaxing quality, "But it's a drug that can control people. Once you take this pill, you'll be completely at my mercy."
Are you scared?
[Ding~ Mood points +180!]
Control?!
She, a dignified princess, is to be controlled by this lowly little man?
No! How can this be!
She is the noble eldest princess, one of the most powerful women in the Qing Kingdom!
The thought of being controlled by this lowly man, forced to obey him and be at his mercy... brought a surge of intense humiliation to her mind.
Can……
Why do I feel so excited and thrilled?
Deep down, there was a faint sense of expectation?
Wu Feng watched as Li Yunrui's expression changed repeatedly. An unnatural blush appeared on her beautiful face, and her expression became increasingly sickly.
"You...you let me go..." Li Yunrui's voice trembled as she pressed her hands against Wu Feng's chest, but she had little strength. "I...I don't want to eat...I am the eldest princess...I don't want to be controlled by a lowly man like you..."
She verbally refused, but her alluring eyes held an irrepressible fervor.
[Ding~ Mood points +200!]
"Your Highness," Wu Feng said softly, "you can only be my princess."
He picked up the protective pill and slowly fed it to Li Yunrui's bright red lips.
"Take this pill, and from now on... you'll belong to me alone."
As Li Yunrui watched the pill get closer and closer to her lips, her body trembled uncontrollably.
Resisting...yet anticipating...
Two emotions intertwined and clashed within her.
When the cool pill touched her soft red lips, she involuntarily opened her mouth slightly.
Wu Feng fed the medicine to him.
Li Yunrui subconsciously took it into her mouth.
The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, transforming into a warm, gentle energy that instantly merged into her body, flowing to every part of her limbs and bones.
A warm sensation rose from my lower abdomen and spread throughout my body.
The seasickness completely disappeared, and I felt light and comfortable.
But that wasn't what she was thinking about at the moment.
She... the dignified Princess...
Am I really going to be controlled by this lowly little man from now on...?
[Ding~ Mood points +280!]
Li Yunrui's eyes became unfocused, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing became somewhat rapid.
Wu Feng chuckled inwardly at her reaction, but maintained his controlling expression on his face.
He reached out and gently stroked her cheek.
"Alright," he said, his voice softening, "You've taken your medicine, Your Highness, you're mine now."
Li Yunrui snapped out of her daze and glared at him angrily, but there was no anger in her eyes; instead, there was an inexplicable allure.
"You...you lowly bastard..." she said softly, "I...I will not let you get away with this..."
