The scumbag was secretly having an affair, while I was openly having an affair with the prince.

Chapter 112 The Princess Confined

Ni Xiao nestled against him, deeply moved. "Your Highness, how fortunate I am to be loved by you so much!"

Ye Shijun pushed her away subtly and said considerately, "Xiao'er, someone will bring hot soup and food over in a little while. After you've eaten, rest first. I'll go arrange other things and come see you again later."

Ni Xiao replied sensibly, "Your Highness, please go ahead with your work. Xiao'er will take good care of herself."

Before leaving, Ye Shishu sternly warned Wen Yan and Wen Mo, "Listen to me, anyone who dares to neglect my Xiao'er will not be spared!"

"Yes!" Wen Yan and Wen Mo replied respectfully once again.

……

After leaving Ni Xiao's place, Ye Shijun went straight to Yu Chi Ling and Ye Shi Shu's new house.

"My God, I've never felt so disgusted in my life! Which bastard sent such an idiot to embarrass himself?"

"Haha..." Ye Shishu just kept laughing.

Ye Shijun then gave Yuchi Ling a thumbs up, "Your Highness, I truly admire you! The rumor you spread really fooled everyone!"

Yu Chi Ling curled his thin lips and said, "Play along with her act well, and you'll get your share of the benefits later."

Then Ye Shishu had someone call Gu Simo over, and the four of them talked in the room for a long time.

After leaving their new house.

Ye Shijun and Gu Simo returned to the courtyard where they used to live.

The first thing Ye Shijun did was to have someone fetch water for a bath.

He was showering while cursing, "That woman smells so foul, it's disgusting!"

Through the screen, Gu Simo laughed and teased him, "I haven't said anything, why are you in such a hurry?"

Ye Shijun thoroughly rubbed himself, then wrapped a cloth around his waist and stepped out from behind the screen. He hugged Gu Simo tightly, inhaling her scent deeply, "My Xin'er still smells the best!"

Gu Simo was so embarrassed that she just wanted to cover her eyes. "What are you doing? Put your clothes on!"

Ye Shijun not only didn't let go, but also picked her up and rushed to bed.

"I was harassed today, Xin'er has to comfort me, otherwise I'm sure I'll have nightmares tonight!"

"Well……"

He pressed her down and kissed her, but Gu Simo did not struggle. Instead, she took the initiative to hug his strong body.

Suddenly, Qiuju's voice came from outside the door, "Second Young Master, that Miss Ni Xiao went to the bridal chamber to see the Princess!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shijun had no choice but to sit up.

Seeing his unsatisfied look, Gu Simo smiled and got out of bed to get him his clothes. "You're the prince's stand-in now, so you have to perform well. You need to fool Ni Xiao enough so that she can make a fool of herself when she enters the palace. The more smug the people behind the scenes are now, the more furious they will be later."

After getting dressed, Ye Shijun hugged her again and kissed her red lips twice. "I didn't get enough kisses earlier, let's continue tonight!"

Gu Simo's face turned bright red instantly.

……

Now let's talk about the new house.

Ye Shishu had long expected that Ni Xiao would come looking for him.

However, she overestimated the other party's composure. She did not expect the other party to be so impatient, coming to her on the very first day to declare his importance in Prince Cheng's heart.

"Your Highness is truly beautiful." After giving a perfunctory bow, Ni Xiao first praised her, but then her tone changed. "It's a pity that no matter how beautiful you are, it's useless. Even if others think you and the Prince are a perfect match, you can only occupy the title of Princess Consort, not the Prince's heart."

Ye Shishu composed herself, after all, playing the role of an unfavored first wife was still quite challenging for her.

She kept a straight face, glaring coldly at Ni Xiao, and said defiantly, "So what if you've won the prince's heart? I am the Princess Consort of Cheng, bestowed by the Emperor! You, a woman with no title or status, dare to dream of replacing me?"

Ni Xiao proudly raised her chin. Standing, she was taller than Ye Shishu, who was sitting, and her gaze was naturally disdainful of him. "I didn't come here to watch you show off. I just wanted to kindly remind you that even if the Prince valued you before, it was only because of your family background, and he used you as a substitute to relieve my loneliness. Now that I'm back by the Prince's side, I hope you can be self-aware and stop dreaming that the Prince will even glance at you."

Ye Shishu slammed her hand on the table in anger, “How dare you! I am the prince’s principal wife, how dare you speak to me like that?”

Ni Xiao let out a startled cry, then seemed to be pushed down by an invisible force, falling heavily to the ground.

When Ye Shijun stepped into the room, he saw this scene.

Ni Xiao looked at him with teary eyes, "Your Highness...the Princess...she..."

Ye Shijun almost lost his composure.

What kind of shameless woman is she!

Even though he was being shameless, he had to suppress his laughter and angrily rebuked Ye Shishu, who was sitting on the seat, "Ye Shishu, what did you do to Xiao'er?"

Ye Shishu also felt wronged and pointed at Ni Xiao on the ground to complain, "Your Highness, she fell on her own. I didn't do anything!"

Ye Shijun snorted, "I can tell you're unhappy about Xiao'er's appearance, so I specially summoned her here to establish her authority! I've said it before, Xiao'er is the person I care about most. If you dare to bully Xiao'er, I will definitely not let you get away with it!"

He knelt down and helped Ni Xiao up, then turned to Ye Shishu and said, "From today onwards, you will stay in your room and not go anywhere without my permission! If I find you bullying Xiao'er again, I will send you back to the General's Mansion!"

After uttering those harsh words, he took Ni Xiao's arm and left the bridal chamber, gently comforting her as they walked, "Xiao'er, are you hurt anywhere? Come on, I'll take you back to rest. From now on, without me by your side, don't listen to anyone who asks you to come here, understand?"

Ye Shishu stood at the door, watching their retreating figures, and shouted, "Your Highness, I haven't done anything wrong, why are you punishing me with confinement? I refuse to accept this, I refuse to accept this..."

She shouted at the top of her lungs, as if she had suffered a great injustice. When she heard Yu Chi Ling come out from next door, she was truly at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

They say three people make a play, but these two siblings alone can carry an entire play...

Ye Shishu immediately stopped crying and threw herself into his arms, saying with a smile, "Tomorrow Wei Yonghuai is marrying You Qingrou. Didn't I send you an invitation? Hurry up and spread the news that I'm under house arrest, so that some people can be happy tomorrow."
