Chapter 996: Chapter 996 You’re Pretending to Sleep

At this point, Gaoyang Princess couldn’t help but clutch Li Ke’s arm tightly, pleading almost desperately, "Third Brother, you must help me, among all my brothers, you are the kindest to me."

Among Li Shimin’s twelve sons, he is particularly fond of Li Tai and Li Ke. Although Crown Prince Li Chengqian is the eldest, recent events have made Li Shimin quite displeased with him, causing him to gradually transfer his affections to Li Tai and Li Ke.

Li Ke rubbed his temple with a headache and sighed, "How am I supposed to help you with this? Matters of men and women require mutual consent. If you like him, that’s fine. Given his current status, Imperial Father would definitely not object if he asked. But you and him... Alas!"

Gaoyang Princess steadied her spirit, and determination shone from her bright eyes, "Third Brother, you have an estate in the Southern Outskirts, don’t you? Take me there now."

"Xiang Wei, are you... have you thought this through? What if he wakes up and denies everything?" This was Li Ke’s greatest worry. Even if Gaoyang Princess forced the issue, there would be no loss for you. At worst, you could just walk away without a care, but if Gaoyang Princess’s chastity is compromised, then her whole life would be ruined.

"If he really is that kind of person, then I accept my fate!"

Li Ke shook his head in sympathy, but that was all he could do.

After an hour of travel, Li Ke and Gaoyang Princess carried you to a beautifully decorated room. This room, located in Li Ke’s estate, was Gaoyang Princess’s residence. When Gaoyang Princess felt troubled, she’d often pester Li Ke to visit the estate for a respite. This room held many happy memories from her childhood and, in a way, was another home to Gaoyang Princess.

"Third Brother, please leave."

Li Ke wanted to persuade Gaoyang Princess further, but seeing the tears on her determined face, he gave up and shook his head as he left.

Li Ke’s feelings at the time were immensely complicated. He didn’t want to fall out with you, given your status, as you were someone any noble would want to be in good terms with. But at that moment, Li Ke resolved that if you were irresponsible, he would be willing to risk being banished by Li Shimin to confront you.

Everyone says there’s no family affection in the royal family. As Li Ke’s mother was the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, even though Li Shimin was very fond of him, the ministers led by Changsun Wuji shunned him, deeming him an ominous being.

Therefore, Li Ke was always extremely cautious in his conduct from a young age. He avoided trouble whenever possible, and if unavoidable, he would swallow his grievances without a word. Among many siblings, Li Ke had the closest relationship with Gaoyang Princess. Even though they were seven or eight years apart in age, it didn’t affect their sibling affection.

Gaoyang Princess, with her candid and lively nature, had always got on well with Li Ke since childhood. Wherever Li Ke went, she would tag along, and over time, he came to treat her like a sister born of the same parents.

"You, I hope you don’t disappoint me and Xiang Wei." Li Ke closed the door with a heavy sigh and left on his own.

At that moment, only Gaoyang Princess and you were in the room.

You were still sprawled on the bed, snoring loudly, disgustingly drooling all over, your face bearing a vulgar expression after just having dreamt of a tryst with Zi Yi.

Gaoyang Princess sat gently on the edge of the bed, wiping the drool from your mouth with a damp cloth, her expression filled with inner conflict.

Recalling all the moments shared with you, Li Xiang Wei’s heart couldn’t help but brim with deep affection. Aside from your lecherous nature, you met all of Gaoyang Princess’s criteria for a partner.

Compared to before, you were now riding the crest of a high wave. A hero of the Tang Dynasty, the dream lover of young girls, and even the married women in their boudoirs would get excited talking about you. This guy was highly sought-after, with numerous people wishing to take a bite.

Speaking of taking a bite, Gaoyang Princess thought about how you had ignored her and, feeling a surge of spite, she gently bit your arm.

"You this bad guy, always bullying people, I must have owed you too many favors in my last life, that I have to repay you like this in this one."

Li Xiangwei appeared very hesitant, she wavered for a long time, and was just about to make a move when you suddenly turned over, stretched out your hand to press her down underneath you, right hand, right foot, directly entangling her into your embrace, treating her as if she were a pillow, saying, "Little Yue, don’t leave tonight, be a pillow for your lord."

Continued to sleep soundly.

Turning to look at you, Li Xiangwei smiled teasingly, snuggling in your arms like a little cat.

At this moment, where was there any sleepiness in her? She seemed like an uneasy little kitten, extending her delicate little hand to gently stroke your resolute face and slightly thick lips.

It was as if she had found an extremely amusing toy, from time to time pinching your earlobes, poking your sturdy chest, and in the end, she even mustered up the courage, puckered her lips slightly, and kissed you.

Well then, if this girl hadn’t done this, tonight would have been smooth sailing, but you hadn’t expected her to start playing around.

In reality, you were never drunk, since due to the particularities of your body now, alcohol could no longer numb your nerves, and drinking those jars of wine was just like drinking cool boiled water.

Originally, you would at most just sleep clothed while cuddling Li Xiangwei, but this girl was really too ticklish, leaving you with no choice but to open your eyes.

However, Li Xiangwei didn’t know your actual situation, so when you opened your eyes, her tender, soft lips were already touching yours, and the two of you were instantly staring at each other, wide-eyed.

"Umm!"

When Li Xiangwei realized what had happened, you suddenly tightened your hands, hugging her even more tightly.

"You... you were pretending to be asleep?"

"How so, you can pretend, but I can’t?"

If you were still asleep, Li Xiangwei would certainly be much more at ease, but now that you were awake, it made her breathing suddenly quicken a lot.

"Did you... did you see everything just now?"

"Of course, I saw it." You smiled slightly and took the initiative to kiss her forehead, "This time, it seems the initiative has shifted into my hands."

"Initiative?"

"What, have you forgotten how arrogant you were in front of me the first time we met?"

Li Xiangwei didn’t catch on at first, but after a moment of thought, she suddenly realized and gave you an annoyed glance, "Who asked you to hide a beauty in the golden house? Besides, you don’t look like a good person; I was already quite polite to you back then. If it were someone else, they would have thrown you directly into detention. If it were now, hmm..."

This statement, if heard by others, would certainly be inexplicable, but only you would understand it.
