Chapter 77 Ascension to the throne (full text)
In the past two years, Gu Xiyue and Xiao Heng have been extremely busy, and it has been difficult for them to see each other, let alone sleep together. Therefore, they have not consummated their marriage until now.
Halfway through, Gu Xiyue saw that Xiao Heng was not in a hurry, and thought that he had someone else outside. She even secretly investigated, but found that Xiao Heng was so busy that he had little time to sleep, let alone be interested in other women. Gu Xiyue was secretly happy and felt a little sorry for him.
Gu Xiyue had never had deep sex with a man in her two lifetimes. She usually saw him as gentle and polite, and didn't think sleeping with him was anything special. It wasn't until she was carried into the room that she felt something was wrong.
When her outer shirt fell to the ground, leaving only her inner clothes, she met his gaze, and her heart trembled instantly. She saw a violent possessive desire in his eyes.
It was a terrifying feeling that was devastating.
In the end, Gu Xiyue just felt like a poor drowning person, unable to grab any straw to give her a breath. His madness made her extremely soft for the first time, and she felt as pitiful as a weak woman who needed no one to love her.
The way she showed herself, tinged with many colors, drove him crazy and out of control several times...
For almost six days, Gu Xiyue had not left the yard, and her food, clothing, and other expenses were all arranged by Xiao Heng.
When she woke up on the seventh day, it was almost noon. She felt refreshed. This was the second full sleep she had had since she entered this room. The first one was the night of her first period. After she got used to it the next day, she never had a full sleep since then. Basically, she would be woken up by a kiss within two hours of falling asleep, and then a new round would begin, and sometimes they would even go on in a cycle.
He seemed to be making up for all that he owed her over the years and had no intention of letting her go.
These days, they only had each other. He used his actions to let her remember that he was her man, the one who could be engraved in her bones. Similarly, she also deeply felt that she was cherished and protected by him.
The two of them had a complete heart-to-heart talk, and both their bodies and souls were elevated.
They are so familiar with each other that they want to stick together and not separate as soon as they come into contact.
Gu Xiyue subconsciously touched her side and found that it was empty. She felt relieved and slowly sat up to get dressed. She could see through the window that it was a good day outside, so she decided to get up and go out for a walk.
Just as she reached out to touch the clothes, the door was pushed open from the outside. Gu Xiyue subconsciously pulled the quilt to cover herself. This was mainly because she was often stripped naked in the past two days. She subconsciously thought that she was not wearing any clothes, but in fact she was. After she fell asleep last night due to extreme sleepiness, Xiao Heng helped her put on soft pajamas, allowing her to sleep comfortably.
When the door was half open, Gu Xiyue's face turned red instantly. Then Xiao Heng came in with a smile on his face. Seeing her shy look, his smile became even wider. He slowly walked closer and sat down next to Gu Xiyue without saying a word.
Seeing her face full of resistance on the bed, he felt like joking. He slowly leaned over and held her in his arms with both hands, pressing her against the pillow, forcing her to have nowhere to hide and curl up in her arms pitifully.
"what's on your mind?"
Xiao Heng lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, his eyes moving around with ambiguous and malicious intent.
Gu Xiyue's anxious eyes darted around, she gently pushed him and said softly, "Don't go too far! I really..."
I really can’t take it anymore…
Her eyes drifted to one side, where she saw the dressing table, and her face turned red. Then they drifted to the other side, where she saw the couch, and her face turned even redder. She didn't know where to look for a moment, so she had to close her eyes.
Xiao Heng followed her gaze to those places, and the smile in his eyes deepened. Those places were marked with traces of his violence these days, and the entire house was basically used to the extreme by him.
Seeing that the person in his arms had closed her eyes in anxiety, he chuckled, freed his left hand and gently pinched her face, his voice full of teasing.
"Your husband came in to call you for lunch, what were you thinking about?"
In private, they both called each other "husband" and "wife", and only called each other "prince" and "princess" in front of outsiders.
After Xiao Heng finished speaking, Gu Xiyue suddenly opened his eyes, raised his hand and punched him on the shoulder.
Xiao Heng laughed out loud. Seeing how adorable she looked, he grabbed her into his arms and kissed her twice before letting her go.
"Hurry up and get up. Your stepfather and stepmother are waiting outside."
After saying that, he walked a few feet away from the bed. Gu Xiyue was furious and grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it over. Xiao Heng caught it in his hand and said with a smile: "Mother is here too, Madam Zhou and Madam Liu are all here..."
Gu Xiyue wished she could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? You didn't even wake me up earlier."
"Meixiang said you haven't left the house these past few days. I don't know why. You've been eating and sleeping in the house every day. They are very considerate and said that my wife has worked hard and asked you to have a good rest."
Gu Xiyue was completely socially devastated now.
Meixiang, you are so good. Once you say this, they will know it whether they want to know it or not. They can figure out what she has been doing these days with just their toes.
Really, I want to lock myself in this room and not go out.
How can I face people like this!
What should I say when I get out?
Seeing her embarrassment, Xiao Heng knew she was anxious, and quickly straightened his face and walked over with two pillows in his arms. "I was just kidding you. Meixiang is not here. Two days ago, I arranged for Wei Lin to take her to decorate their new house. I don't know where they'll be playing at this point. I just chatted with them for an hour outside, and they all had things to do and went back. They said we'd see each other another day. You've been so busy lately, so I told you to take a good rest."
Gu Xiyue was teased by him. She felt relieved but angry at the same time. She stood up and prepared to hit her, but she lost her balance and fell forward. Seeing this, Xiao Heng threw away the pillow in his hand, stretched forward and hugged her tightly.
Her shoulders were half exposed, and her thick, black, silky hair was scattered in disorder, which made Gu Xiyue's pretty face look even more charming. The look in her eyes made Xiao Heng's mouth dry.
He rushed forward with the person in his arms, kissing her without caring about anything. Gu Xiyue's murmurs were instantly swallowed by him...
An hour later, Gu Xiyue was picked up by Xiao Heng, who helped her put on her clothes while talking to her to cover up his previous crime.
"Master Yan brought some news today about your sister. What do you think happened to her?"
Gu Xiyue was listless, still in the illusory time after the excitement. She felt weak and annoyed, and didn't want to pay any attention to him at all.
He feels like a hungry wolf that can never be fed. I don’t know how he has endured all these years.
But she still cared about the news about Gu Xiyun.
It's not the kind of concern that something might happen to her, but the fear that she might do something weird and affect him.
"I don't want to guess, just tell me the result."
"She's dead."
Gu Xiyue was startled and turned to look at Xiao Heng.
Let him tell the result, the result is so simple.
Dead?
"How did he die?"
I thought she could do something weird, but she ended up dying.
Gu Xiyue suddenly lost interest in this person, thinking that he could stir up some trouble and cause trouble for himself, but he ended up dying!
"She was found in Hu Country. My husband had been sending people to track her down, but there was no news. Last year, there was a human trafficking case, so I asked Lord Yan to keep an eye on it and investigate. Fortunately, most of the women were rescued, but there were a few whose whereabouts were unknown. On the way back, one of them took the opportunity to escape, and Lord Yan had people follow that person. It wasn't until recently that they found the missing women, including her."
Gu Xiyue had already put on her clothes. Xiao Heng helped her tie her belt and continued, "Those women were held captive in an underground gambling house in Hu State. They specialized in entertaining wealthy men. Those men had broken hands and were cruel in torturing women. Lord Yan said that when they rescued her, she was still breathing her last breath. She had been tortured beyond recognition. If she hadn't kept muttering that you had taken her position as princess, he wouldn't have recognized her..."
Gu Xiyue lowered her head with a gloomy expression. As a woman, she felt bad for her husband's experience. Even if she died of anger in the struggle with herself, or was killed, it would be better than such an ending.
I don’t know how she met those people. With her abilities, she shouldn’t have ended up like this. It’s really puzzling.
But I was only confused for a short while.
Her stomach was rumbling with hunger, but she suppressed her emotions, quickly washed up, and went out to eat.
A hot pot was prepared. When she came out, the maid fanned the charcoal fire in the stove, and the soup bubbled up. There was a circle of dishes on the table, very rich, all of which were her favorites.
She picked up a piece of tripe and put it into the boiling pot. Xiao Heng brought a bowl and a plate with her favorite sauce. She dipped the tripe in the sauce after it was taken out of the pot. The moment it entered her mouth, she squinted her eyes and looked very enjoyable.
After a few years here, she has transferred all the food she likes to others, and now she can eat basically everything she wants.
Here she met a group of lovely people, experienced a series of twists and turns, found adoptive parents, and did some earth-shaking things that were enough to change Yu Chao's destiny.
After the autumn harvest of the following year, Xiao Heng ascended the throne and changed the Yu Dynasty to Nanxia.
Gu Xiyue was made queen. At the ceremony, Xiao Heng made a promise in front of all the ministers that he would not choose a concubine in his life and only wanted one queen.
The throne was not what he wanted. He just wanted to live a passionate life with Gu Xiyue.
But as more and more people came to him, including many former ministers of the Yu Dynasty, for many days, thousands of people knelt on the ground and begged him to ascend the throne and support justice.
The scene shocked the whole country for a time, and officials from all over the country came to him with letters, asking him to ascend the throne.
The Protector General even handed over his military command, and those officials who opposed him were removed from their posts, including Xiao Rui, who was sidelined.
The grand scene in Ganzhou spread throughout the Yu Dynasty. The people of Yu Dynasty were unprecedentedly united and wholeheartedly asked Xiao Heng to stabilize the country's foundation. After knowing Gu Xiyue's deeds, they all agreed that she would become the queen mother after Xiao Heng ascended the throne.
Under the trend of the times, Gu Xiyue could not stop Xiao Heng. After all, the national conditions and people's hearts here were different from those in his own era, and he still had to follow the will of the people.
Finally, under her persuasion, Xiao Heng agreed to ascend the throne.
Xiao Rui was finally imprisoned in the prince's mansion, where he was provided with food and clothing until his old age, but he was not allowed to leave the mansion until his death.
The Minister of Revenue fell into the sea while fleeing, and all the money and property on the boat fell into the sea.
Gu Xiyue gave birth to three children in total. The first two were a boy and a girl, and the last one was a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, making up two good words.
Xiao Heng kept his promise. In this life, there will only be one woman, Gu Xiyue, by his side, and he will treat her well all his life.
The two lived together until old age, and even their deaths were only half a month apart.
