Flower Stealing Master

Chapter 403: Shy Ajiu

As soon as Xia Qingqing finished speaking, she felt a rush of embarrassment and hastily said, "Let me go quickly; I have business to attend to!"

Song Qingshu, in a good mood, casually unsealed her acupuncture points, chuckling, "Hahaha, remember what you just said."

Xia Qingqing spat lightly and ran out without looking back.

Ajiu on the side asked with doubt, "What did Qingqing just say?"

Not being familiar enough with Song Qingshu, Ajiu had kept her head low, playing with her fingers and feeling uneasy in her heart. So she hadn't paid much attention to their conversation, and Xia Qingqing had also intentionally lowered her voice.

"She asked me to accompany you well~" Song Qingshu leaned close to her ear, wearing an evil smile.

Feeling the warmth of Song Qingshu's breath, Ajiu shivered involuntarily, panic evident in her voice as she said, "I'll also contact the faction leaders."

"Didn't you say there's no problem?"

Xia Qingqing had graciously left to create this opportunity for him, so Song Qingshu was not willing to let this chance slip away.

"It's just a formality. It has to be confirmed in person. I haven't discussed this matter with them yet. After all… after all…" Ajiu hesitated.

"What's the matter?" Song Qingshu asked curiously.

"It's easy to talk to my master, but I haven't talked to Shui Jian yet. I wanted to confirm my relationship with you first before I could move forward with the negotiations. Why did you take so long to come?" Ajiu thought about her previous encounter with Song Qingshu. Back then, the relationship between them was still uncertain, so she couldn’t just approach others and tell them to support Song Qingshu. If by any chance, Song Qingshu was not willing to be with her then… wouldn't her status as a noble princess be in vain?

As the Golden Serpent Conference approached, Ajiu had been sending people to inquire about Song Qingshu's whereabouts, waiting for his arrival. So his delay on the road had left her feeling quite resentful.

"So you wanted to confirm our relationship…" Song Qingshu replied with joy. "Then, we will confirm the relationship right now." With that, he put his hands on her belt.

Ajiu, startled, grabbed his hand, saying, "Didn't we confirm our relationship just now?"

"That's not enough." Song Qingshu shook his head gently and began slowly kissing her face.

"You…" Ajiu bit her lip, trembling with nervousness. Although they had shared a forced kiss before, this felt different.

Ajiu felt a mix of emotions. Trust, uncertainty, and the decision to follow him no matter what. She couldn't help but think, ‘Maybe this is how men are?'

Despite her nerves, she had become his…so she just let the river run its course.

As Song Qingshu's kisses continued, Ajiu sighed quietly, closed her eyes, and surrendered to the moment, letting him do whatever he wanted.

Soon…her body started to heat up, as very touch from her beloved sent shivers down her spine. Every time her skin came into contact with his, she felt…a tremors in her soul.

"Hmmng~"

Ajiu opened her mouth slightly, and raised her chin, showing her smooth and delicate pink neck in front of her lover. As Song Qingshu continued his advances, she felt so nervous that she could hear her own heartbeat.

Yet, she also felt a sense of trust, despite the unconventional circumstances.

Seeing her response, Song Qingshu couldn't hold back. With one hand, he reached under her skirt, skillfully untying the ribbon around her waist.

When Song Qingshu touched Ajiu's belt, she instinctively blocked his hand. Song Qingshu gently pushed it aside, but she did not continue to hold on, and soon, a snow-white alluring figure was revealed for him to behold.

With a little force on his hands, he gently pushed her body down on the bed. But he also felt that her whole body was a little stiff. In order to relieve her tension, Song Qingshu chuckled and said, "Ajiu, this isn't our first time. We have done this before. Why are you so nervous? Relax a bit."

Ajiu felt a mix of resentment and thought, ‘How could I know that you would be so impatient? I am entrusting my whole life to you. It would be strange if I wasn’t feeling nervous.'

"Don't you remember the last time in Shengjing?" Song Qingshu whispered in her ear.

Ajiu's face suddenly turned red. Recalling the charm of that day, she couldn't help but feel a surge in her heart, and she finally relaxed slowly.

Song Qingshu's fingers slid across her skin, and he praised, "Ajiu, your skin is so smooth!"

This was the most normal compliment, but Song Qingshu forgot that this was in the feudal society in ancient era when ethics prevailed.

Ajiu felt ashamed and anxious when she heard his direct praise. However, to be praised by her lover, she could not help but feel a little proud in her heart despite her shyness.

Suddenly, a sweet fragrance enveloped his nose, and Song Qingshu asked in surprise, "This is the best incense in the Forbidden City. How do you have it, Ajiu?"

"This incense is called ‘Huarui Furen Yaxiang'. in the past, This kind of incense was my favorite in the palace. After I went into exile, it naturally disappeared. Fortunately, I was curious and looked up its formula, so I later clumsily mixed it myself." (G: Huarui (flower pistil) Furen (lady) Yaxiang (fragrance) can be translated to Lady Flower Fragrance.)

"This incense is also being used in the Qing Palace. The recipe seems to have been lost, please tell me quickly."

In order to relieve Ajiu's nervousness and eliminate the slight sense of unfamiliarity between the two, Song Qingshu took the time and deliberately directed the topic to the things she was most familiar with and loved.

"If I remember correctly, it should be three liang each of agarwood, one liang each of sandalwood, half a penny of borneol, one liang of armor incense, one penny of musk, pound them into powder, add charcoal bark powder, and saltpeter. Then add one coin raw honey, mix well, put it into a porcelain box and boil it for ten times, then take it out and simmer it for seven days…"

Seeing that Song Qingshu liked the fragrance on her body, Ajiu seemed to have found a close friend, and her face exuded a charming brilliance.

Although she has been living in the wulin for many years, the graceful and luxurious aura she developed in the imperial palace had penetrated deep into her bones and was closely integrated with her own temperament. Therefore, she always felt out of place when getting along with the people in the wulin, and it gave off the impression that she was aloof. Many even took it as her being too pampered and rich.

She liked Yuan Chengzhi very much in the past, but never talked about this kind of things with him. Firstly, Yuan Chengzhi wouldn't understand, and secondly… Yuan Chengzhi was just a fool in the end. Ajiu was worried that talking about these things would arouse the other party's resentment and invisibly pull him back, increasing the distance between two people as a result.

Song Qingshu's knowledge was quite complex, and he had lived as a fake emperor in the imperial palace for quite a long time, so he was quite well versed in these matters.

And so, the two started chatting about the issue of incense.

Seeing the excitement on Ajiu's face, Song Qingshu knew that he had successfully eliminated her nervousness, so how could he have the patience to continue talking about ingredients with her any longer?

Therefore, he leaned into her ear and said softly, "Ajiu, you don't have to work hard to refine it yourself. With your formula, I will ask the people in the palace to make it, and when it is ready, I will give it to you. "

Only then did Ajiu remember that in a sense, Song Qingshu had already conquered the Qing Dynasty.

Feeling emotional, she couldn't help but reach out and touch his cheek, and murmured emotionally, "Song Lang…" (G: Lang is an ancient term to refer to one's lover or son.)
