5. On the Proper Way of Hugging Big Thighs (1)

Xie He had fallen unconscious. Xiao Yan called for a eunuch to enter. The eunuch wrapped Xie He up and took him out. Xiao Yan then dusted his changpao and called Qi Qing back in.

One couldn’t see anything wrong based off of Qi Qing’s expression. Although he had tender feelings for Xie He, he would not meddle for the other’s sake. If he did, it would only make His Highness unhappy.

Xiao Yan said, “Continue to keep an eye on the Crown Prince’s movements. He doesn’t know how much evidence we have on him. He must be feeling extremely uneasy as of late. He may attempt to make a move.”

Qi Qing said, “Shuxia understands.”

Xiao Yan nodded and added, “Arrange for more secret guards to protect Vice Minister Zhang. Do not let the Crown Prince silence him with death.”

After saying this, Xiao Yan’s eyes grew cold. The Crown Prince was corrupt by nature and disregarded the law. He had been accumulating his wealth with no restraint.

In the past, the Crown Prince had even tried to kill Xiao Yan when the latter had discovered this ugly truth.... Now that the Emperor was old, the court was tumultuous, like a billowing storm. How could Xiao Yan sit and wait for his death?

..............................

Xie He was brought back to Tingfeng Court by the eunuch. Many people had seen the eunuch carry a bundled up Xie He out of Xiao Yan’s courtyard. They could all tell what had happened.

His Highness had not only acknowledged Xie He as his, but had bestowed favour upon him a second time so quickly. The servants of the wangfu were very shrewd. They thought that His Highness had likely taken a fancy to this vixen. He might even become one of their masters in the future.

When Xie He woke up, he discovered that his house had undergone drastic changes. Although it was still a remote courtyard, what was once an empty room with only one bed and desk now had all sorts of furnishings. He had also been sent many new clothes and new bedding. The house now had a lit stove that emitted warm heat. There was also a screen by his bed.

Hearing him wake up, someone quickly brought hot water over to him. After Xie He finished bathing, a piping hot meal was waiting for him outside.

【Xie He：This is the importance of hugging big thighs. Smile.JPG】

【444：(⊙v⊙) Mn!!!】

【Xie He：Baby, I think that you’ve already learned this lesson on your own. So I guess it’s not like you’re totally void of any good points.】

【444：......】

【Xie He：Don’t be shy. Being able to cling onto influential people is a very useful technique and also requires a lot of skill. I’m praising you. 🙂 】

【444：Host dada. QAQ】

【Xie He：Speaking of which, I’m really pleased with XiaoXiao’s girth, length and stamina. It’s just that he’s a bit too rough. However, the pros do outweigh the cons. He can be taught. He just needs a little bit of guidance. 】

【444：Host dada, jiayou! O(∩_∩)O~】

After eating, Xie He rested. As he wished, he got to spend his days doing nothing but eating, sleeping and enjoying being waited upon. The only down side was that the his sex life wasn’t regular. He still needed to work on this.

Bai Qiuchi had been keeping tabs with Xiao Yan’s actions the whole time. When she found out that Xie He had pleasured him again and that the wangfu servants were already changing their tunes, she was so angry she nearly vomited blood.

But Xie He attracted attention right now. It wouldn’t be easy for her to mess with him again. She didn’t have an appropriate excuse either.

Several days passed like this, with Xie He spending his days pleased while Bai Qiuchi spent her nights unable to sleep.

This lasted until Xiao Yan thought of Xie He again.

Xiao Yan didn’t know why he thought of Xie He. The first time had been because he had been drugged by Bai Qiuchi and had thus coincidentally happened to want him. The second time had been because Xie He had sent himself to his doorstep.

Although it had only been two times...when he closed his eyes, he couldn’t help but recall Xie He’s charming appearance beneath him.

A trained courtesan was indeed an expert in pleasing men. The taste of him was truly memorable. Originally, Xiao Yan had not been one to indulge in debauchery. That was why he had no concubines. But now, Xie He was here. Xie He gave him no troubles and was obedient. It would be easy to occasionally use him.

Xiao Yan once again felt his desire stir. He called to have someone bring Xie He over.

When Xie He heard that Xiao Yan had summoned him, he was excited but also a little afraid. He looked very nervous. Xie He was led by a eunuch to Xiao Yan. He then fell to his knees, not daring to raise his head. In a soft voice, he said, “Nu greet His Highness.”

Xiao Yan put down the book in his head and calmly said, “Get up.”

Xie He stood right up, looking very ill at ease.

Xiao Yan looked at him with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. A dark light flashed through his eyes.

A few days of rest and the lack of exhaustion and starvation had bettered Xie He’s complexion immensely. His bare face had gotten even more beautiful, bright and touching. His china-like pale skin was effused with a soft glow. His long, curled eyelashes fluttered softly, making Xiao Yan’s heart itch.

Xie He was his. He could naturally use the other however he liked. Xiao Yan had no intention of being patient. In a deep voice, he said, “Come here and pleasure Benwang.”

As soon as he got permission, Xie He went over with a pure smile on his face.

He undid his lapel and his changpao fell to his feet. He only wore a thin piece made of sheer material underneath. His slender body could be made out faintly from beneath the article, evoking one’s wildest fantasies. He directly walked over and knelt by Xiao Yan’s feet, lowering his head to service the other. When he saw that Xiao Yan was aroused, he continued working until the other climaxed. He then looked up with watery, bright black eyes and parted his red lips slightly. “Your Highness....”

Xiao Yan gave Xie He a profound look and then directly shoved him onto the bed. This courtesan was really something, to want to be f*cked by him!

He tore off Xie He’s remaining article with one hand. That lovely body was once again on display. The golden bells tied around his slender ankles emitted clear chimes that seemed to chime into Xiao Yan’s heart.

Xiao Yan raked his gaze over the other for a while. If Xie He wasn’t a prostitute, then with his stunning looks and his ability to please men, it wouldn’t be like Xiao Yan couldn’t accept the other into his harem. But when he thought of how Xie He had once resided at the Xunhuan House and had pandered to all his clients in the same fashion, asking for it, Xiao Yan’s gaze turned cold. He rubbed Xie He’s lips that were red like the petals of a rose. The soft touch called out to him, begging to be kissed....

But Xiao Yan didn’t kiss him. A filthy, base plaything like this.... Who knew how many men that beautiful mouth has pleasured? It was only worthy of wrapping around a man’s thing.

Xiao Yan flipped Xie He onto his front, making him support himself on the bed, and entered him from behind.

..............................

Xie He’s fingers grasped onto the edges of the bed, his entire body trembling. Although he slept with the other twice already, it had never been easy being under Xiao Yan. He fell unconscious midway but was awoken a while after. Right now, he had no strength left in his body.

Xiao Yan stood up, satisfied. He looked at Xie He’s miserable appearance and felt that the courtesan was a bit pitiful. He chuckled. “Is it so difficult to bear?”

Xie He became nervous. As a courtesan, how could he criticize his master? He immediately turned to look at Xiao Yan, gorgeous eyes glistening with tears. He said softly, “It is Nu’s blessing to be able to serve His Highness.”

Xiao Yan laughed. Indeed, it was this kind of response. There was no originality at all. He was about to have Xie He leave when his gaze fell onto Xie He’s eyes. It was as if those beautiful eyes could speak, like they had a spirit of their own. They were full of sincerity...it was like he really meant it.

He was so cautiously and earnestly fawning over him, worshipping him...as if Xiao Yan was his Heaven, and his Earth.

If an ordinary man were to be looked at like this, he would be unable to remain unmoved. Even though Xiao Yan had gotten used to seeing others pander to him like this, it was the first time he had seen such unreserved sincerity within someone’s eyes. He was moved.

【Ding, the target Xiao Yan’s Favourability Value +10. The current Favourability Value is 40.】

A moment later, Xiao Yan chuckled. He must have been confused just now, to think that this low-bred prostitute could have any sincerity. The other must have already gotten used to currying favour with men like this, that’s all. He would like whoever would spend money on him, whoever could provide him a life of luxury.

He was only saying this because Xiao Yan could give him everything he wanted with his position.

Xiao Yan gave Xie He a cold glance, the corner of his lips rising. In any case, it didn’t matter. He would just treat it as raising a little plaything.

Xie He could not walk, so a eunuch once again took him back.

The next day, four servants arrived at Tingfeng Court. A large reward was also delivered. It was said to have been His Highness’ instructions.

Although Xie He had no title, strictly speaking, he could still be considered His Highness’ concubine. The wangfu servants did not dare to slight him. When they saw him, they would politely call him Yuan gongzi.

Despite this, Xie He still refrained from even taking a step out of his courtyard. He didn’t act arrogant now that he was favoured, either. What he wanted had never been brocade garments or luxurious meals. He just wanted some stability. Even though His Highness showed some interest in him, he knew that he was nothing to His Highness. He didn’t dare laze around and continued to behave as if he were treading on needles.

He was afraid that he would fall back to hell if he weren’t careful.

..............................

A bit more than a month passed like this. Tonight, Xiao Yan summoned Xie He again and told him to dress up.

Xie He changed into a garment made of layers of sheer red fabric. He also did his makeup meticulously. He then followed the eunuch out. But this time, the eunuch didn’t take Xie He to Xiao Yan’s courtyard. Instead, they headed to the front court.

This was the first time Xie He had left the rear court since coming to the wangfu. He was curious but didn’t dare ask about it. He only lowered his head and continued forward.

Shortly after, they arrived in a hall. Music drifted outwards. It seemed like His Highness was currently entertaining a guest.

Xie He entered and saw Xiao Yan, clad in an embroidered black pao, at once. Below Xiao Yan, on his left, sat a tall, strong and fully-bearded general. Xie He didn’t dare stare. He lowered his head and knelt by Xiao Yan, speaking in a soft voice, “Your Highness.”

Xiao Yan glanced at him but didn’t pay him any attention. He continued speaking with the general, laughing brightly. “General Dan, I heard that your bounty was plentiful against the barbarians this time. Is that true?”

General Dan responded in a loud voice, “Yes.”

Xie He saw that Xiao Yan had no intentions of paying him any heed. However, he was familiar with this kind of occasion—with accompanying guests. Therefore, he obediently knelt by Xiao Yan’s side, deferentially helping him pour wine.

Xiao Yan and General Dan chatted very merrily. It seemed like Xiao Yan had intentions of winning the other over to his side. Xie He listened with a lowered gaze. It seemed like General Dan had just come back from fighting at the borders. This time, he had harvested quite the bounty. He hadn’t yet gone to see the Emperor but had come to see Xiao Yan. It was obvious that he had intentions of throwing his lot with Xiao Yan.

Aside from Xie He, there were quite a number of female entertainers singing and dancing. Xiao Yan was focussed on chatting and no one else spoke.

After the feast reached the midpoint, Xiao Yan turned his head and said to Xie He, “Perform a dance.”

Xie He respectfully replied, “Yes.”

He got up and walked to the center of the hall with light steps. Today, he was dressed in red clothes that had long sleeves. He flung his sleeves and began to dance along to the music. For the sake of pleasing Xiao Yan, he danced very earnestly, revealing his beauty as much as possible. He flitted around the stage, looking like a fairy in one of those paintings.

Xiao Yan propped his chin up with his hand, watching Xie He dance. He was definitely a delightful sight and was devastatingly beautiful.

Then, he narrowed his eyes and turned to look at General Dan. He discovered that General Dan had been looking at Xie He too. Well, strictly speaking, he was staring at him in rapture. He looked so infatuated that he might as well have been drooling. Xiao Yan thought, he’s truly an uncouth military man..... But Xiao Yan needed to rope the other in, or at least trick the Crown Prince into thinking the other was on his side.

When Xiao Yan thought of this, his expression changed.

Xie He finished a dance, bent down on the floor. He raised his head to send Xiao Yan a smile in a very fawning manner.

His clothes snaked along the floor as he got up and slowly walked over to Xiao Yan. However, before he reached the other, he heard Xiao Yan say, “You don’t need to return. Accompany General Dan.”

General Dan’s eyes had never left Xie He, constantly following the other’s movements. He had visited many brothels but had never seen a beauty like this. Even those so-called famous courtesans were far beneath him. It was just that ,when he thought about how this was Prince Su’s person, he hadn’t dared to act rash no matter how much he was drooling over the beauty.... He never thought that, although he didn’t say anything, Prince Su would actually have the beauty accompany him. His mood soared.

Compared to General Dan’s excitement, fear immediately emerged in Xie He’s eyes. His face paled.

Right then, it felt like he had returned to his days at the Xunhuan House.... Back then, he had no choice but to wander from bed to bed, sleeping with different men. And now...his master wanted him to be with another man. If Xiao Yan had any intention of accepting him, he would not make him be with another person. He was able to command him to do such a thing because he didn’t want Xie He at all.

The tenderness and favour from before had been nothing but an illusion. In Xiao Yan’s eyes, he was nothing but a courtesan anyone could sleep with.... Even at the wangfu, he could not change his contemptible fate.

The only difference was that now, he was not entertaining customers, but whomever Xiao Yan wanted him to.
