Murong Ling's hair was thick and dense, it looked like a piece of fine silk. In order to not get her hair wet, she had to ask the servant girl to help her tie her head of black hair into a bun that reached into the clouds.

The Prince Qin was still there.

He was playing chess.

She had a serious expression as she stared fixedly at the chess board. If not for the clearly defined black and white chess pieces being arranged in a messy shape, Murong Ling would have thought that he was thinking about some difficult chess game.

"Your Royal Highness, you should go outside to play first. You should come back later."

The Prince Qin, who was holding a white chess piece, looked at her after hearing his words. His pitch-black eyes did not reveal any color, "It's too dark outside, so I do not dare to go out."

In the blink of an eye, the setting sun had been swallowed up by the horizon, the warm afterglow turned into the darkness of the night, and the stars in the sky flickered as it entered the night.

Murong Ling thought about how Prince Qin had been kidnapped last night and probably still had a shadow in his heart, so she gave up on the idea of letting him go out. Just as she was about to get someone to move the bathtub to a side room, Prince Qin suddenly spoke up, "Princess, you should go take a bath.

Cleaning the marrow, as the name implies, was to remove the impurities in the body. The process of rebirth was extremely painful. If one was even the slightest bit careless, then all their previous efforts would have been wasted. If he failed the second time, the effects would be greatly reduced. Therefore, he could not be disturbed by the outside world.

She had just instructed her servants before, but she didn't dare guarantee that they wouldn't go against her wishes. In the end, she wasn't certain, but if something were to happen, it would be safer if Prince Qin was here to guard them.

After a thousand thoughts, she finally responded in the blink of an eye. She looked at him and said, "That's fine, but your highness, you are not allowed to peek."

She still remembered the Prince Qin's behavior when they were in the bridal room. If he suddenly barged in to ask for her and little Min Min Min, wouldn't she be luring a wolf into the room?

Li Cangmin's face instantly turned unsettled.

Before their marriage, he had Bai Shang investigate Miss Mu Rong's reputation, so he naturally didn't like the future wangfei who was weak, incompetent, and tied other people together. Even the trouble of playing hide-and-seek had occurred with his tacit approval, but he didn't expect that when he finally saw the real person, he would discover that she wasn't suitable for his investigation.

"Esteemed wangfei, don't worry. This King will definitely not peek."

Only then did Murong Ling relax and took her clothes and went behind the screen.

Outside, Li Cangmin had a complicated look in his eyes. He did not understand why he was staying, was it just to observe from the sidelines?

He saw that the board game that he had casually set up was in a mess. However, he didn't know that his mind was in a mess because of the board game. Instead, he was in a mess because of the board game.

So he began to pick up chess. The jade white chess was exquisite and gentle in his hands, sparkling like skin. He could not help but think of the wedding he had torn last night, and that poured snow-white chess piece was even more exquisite and lustrous than the white chess piece.

With a shake of his hand, the chess piece fell onto the carpet. Just as he was about to bend down and pick it up, he was suddenly stunned.

The room was filled with the shadows of candles. The bright light of the candles reflected the tall and slender figure behind the screen. One point was too long, one point was too short, and one point was too short. Her figure was slender and her body slender, like a painter's most agile line, vividly portrayed in the embroidered screen of a fairy holding a flower, until one day she received a bit of spiritual energy and was instantly revived.

Li Cangmin's fingertips trembled, and immediately shifted his gaze, but that image lingered in his mind, and could not be ignored.
