His highness's Allure - Chap 28
Behind the thin yellow bed curtain, Qi Changyi’s exquisite brocade clothes had been tossed to the floor. The little man was huddled at the corner of the bed; his white underrobe had been pulled to his collarbone, revealing a patch of cloud-colored skin.
Qi Changyi hugged his knees, his eyes growing more fearful by the second.
The seductresses undid their robes slightly and surrounded him, smiling and coaxing him with their soft voices.
“Don’t be afraid, Your Highness, come and play with us.”
“Your Highness, my chest hurts. Could you rub it for me?”
“Your Highness…”
These alluring calls had the power to turn any man’s limbs into jelly.
But out of the two men present, one had no clue what was going on and instinctively resisted, while the other sat out in the hall on a mahogany chair with no expression.
A daring woman stepped forward to try and pull Qi Changyi out, grabbing his arm and tugging vigorously.
Of course, Qi Changyi was dragged from the corner to the center of the bed, where several pairs of soft hands immediately latched onto him.
“No, don’t touch me! Ahh!”
Qi Changyi was pinned to the bed. He struggled with all his might, his eyes reddening.
Pei-gege was sitting right outside, how could he let him be bullied by these people?
The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. Tears began to leak out of his eyes, and his struggling limbs gradually weakened. In the end, he could only shake his head and shed crystal tears.
“Stop.”
Pei Zheng’s cold voice rang out as he stepped inside. He swept his eyes over the intense performance1 in front of him, but his expression remained cool and collected.
“Are you serving him, or kidnapping him?”
The seductresses quickly let go of Qi Changyi, trembling as they dropped to their knees.
“My lord, please spare us. His Highness is really weird, we have served many men before, but we’ve never met one like His Highness.”
Pei Zheng’s eyes became even colder, and he lifted the chin of the woman who had just spoken. He asked in a deep voice, “Oh? Then what is His Highness like?”
The woman was entranced by the bottomless pools of Pei Zheng’s eyes, her face flushed red at the sight of his light smile.
“R-replying to the lord, His Highness obviously has some brain problems, I’m afraid he doesn’t really understand what love is. The lord wants us to guide His Highness in matters of the bedroom, but he won’t be able to learn without understanding the meaning behind it first…”
Pei Zheng retracted his hand, before swinging his arm with force.
“Pa!” The woman was slapped on the face so hard that her entire body fell to the side, and blood oozed from the torn corner of her lips.
The rest of the seductresses kneeling in the hall immediately prostrated themselves and begged for mercy.
Pei Zheng stretched his five fingers and called out, “Come.”
Cheng Feng, who was outside guarding the door, responded to the summons.
“Get rid of them.” After giving the order, Pei Zheng walked to the side of the bed.
Several more guards came in and dragged the women out without blinking.
Pei Zheng embraced the little man who was sobbing to the point of being unable to breathe, rubbing his back gently.
Qi Changyi’s vision was blurred with tears. When he heard the screams and begs for mercy from outside the hall, he hiccupped.
“Pei-gege, please spare their lives.”
Pei Zheng looked at him in silence.
Qi Changyi wiped his tears with the back of his hand. “They2 didn’t do anything wrong, it’s all my fault for being so stupid, I don’t understand anything, and I can’t learn anything, I implicated all of them for no reason…”
Pei Zheng placed a finger on the other’s red lips, stopping the rest of the incoherent sentence. He raised his eyes and commanded, “His Highness just said that he would spare your lives, hurry up and thank him!”
The seductresses all kowtowed and thanked him for his benevolence.
Cheng Feng led the women out of the hall. As he was about to leave, Pei Zheng gave him a look, and Cheng Feng immediately understood. He closed the door and left.
He knew that his master would not let these loose-lipped women live; he was merely putting on an act for His Highness.
He led the seductresses to a deserted place outside the palace. Cheng Feng’s sword was swift. He made short work of the women, before he found a random spot to bury them.
Pei Zheng ordered someone to bring a basin of cold water. He carefully wiped Qi Changyi’s face and covered his swollen eyes with the soaked cloth.
“Pei-gege, I didn’t learn well like you asked…does that mean I won’t get a reward?”
Qi Changyi pursed his lips and tried his best to hold back tears.
Pei Zheng was instantly swayed by his pitiful appearance and felt obligated to reward him anyway.
Pei Zheng removed the towel over his tear-filled eyes and said, “If you don’t shed a single tear from now on, I’ll reward you.”
Qi Changyi’s eyes widened. He raised his head and blinked furiously, as though he wanted to suck those tears back into his eyes.
“I can do it, don’t fall, don’t fall…”
Qi Changyi muttered in a quiet voice as he fanned his hand over his face.
He hadn’t expected it to be so effective; the tears had really stopped.
Qi Changyi’s opened his eyes wide and stared at Pei Zheng, “Pei-gege, look, my tears are all gone.”
Pei Zheng wrapped the brocade robe around the other’s shoulders. “Then remember to come to the study early tomorrow morning.”
After speaking, he nodded his head, “Don’t be late again, and don’t run around without permission.”
When Qi Changyi thought about the study, he remembered the last time he had been there. His mouth pouted slightly, “I wasn’t late, Pei was the late one. You were walking and laughing with Fourth Brother.”
“Do you dislike it when I’m with the fourth prince?” Pei Zheng teased. “Unfortunately, there are state affairs that I must discuss with him, so we will inevitably meet every now and then.”
Qi Changyi felt uncomfortable in his heart, and replied in a low voice, “But, whenever Pei-gege is with me, you don’t even smile. When you’re with Fourth Brother, you’re always laughing.”
Pei Zheng narrowed his eyes, “Is Your Highness accusing4 me? I’ve never had any physical contact with the fourth prince, but you, Your Highness, let Zhao Litang hug you whenever he wants.”
Qi Changyi had no rebuttal. After all, Zhao Litang did indeed embrace him as soon as he saw him today.
“You never learn, do you? I really need to think of a way to keep you honest and obedient, don’t I?”
Pei Zheng suddenly leaned closer, and towered over him. Qi Changyi’s entire field of vision was obstructed by Pei Zheng’s body, he could only look up blankly and swallow the saliva back into his throat.
“N-no, no need! I’ll definitely…ah!”
Before Qi Changyi had finished his sentence, he felt a searing pain on his buttocks. He quickly reached down and touched the place that had just been hit; it was slightly hot.
“Definitely what?” Pei Zheng asked, before reaching out and slapping the other side of his little butt.
Qi Changyi shouted “ah!” again, clutching his butt as he backed away desperately. It was only then that he saw the ruler in Pei Zheng’s hand, just like the one Mr. Grand Tutor used in the past.
The difference was that the Grand Tutor used the ruler to slap an unruly student’s palm, while Pei Zheng used it to slap the unruly Qi Changyi’s ass.
As Qi Changyi retreated backward, Pei Zheng closed in from the front, until Qi Changyi’s back hit a bookshelf in the corner, and there was nowhere left for him to go.
He spoke with a wrinkled face, “Pei-gege, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, this spanking really hurts…”
It seemed like the ruler in Pei Zheng’s hand had grown eyes; it actually slipped underneath the little man’s robes, and there was another crisp “pa!”.
Pei Zheng leaned closer and whispered in a deep voice, “And what was it that you did wrong?”
Notes
Sorry I ran out of synonyms for butt, Pei Zheng really is a scumbag ah?
I’ve got to stay ahead of the manhua huuu
Also if you’ve noticed any changes in the previous chapters, I’m working to make them less clunky ;3
