Chapter 292 Is it sweet?
Knowing that Zhang Ye was busy recently, Xiao Ning did not specifically inform him of Shang Xi's awakening.
First of all, his arrival will not have any positive effect on Shang Xi's injury.
Secondly, she didn't want Shang Xi to collude with these ministers again.
So it was not until the next day that Zhangye heard the news and rushed over.
He came over and asked Xiao Ning, "Your Highness has woken up, why didn't the general send anyone to inform me?"
Xiao Ning picked up the medicine bowl and fed Shang Xi the medicine, "I forgot."
The tone is cold.
Zhangye: “…”
General Xiao, why is your attitude like this today?
Don’t we usually chat and laugh with everyone? It’s very harmonious.
Shang Xi knew why Xiao Ning was so cold.
He was simply worried that he would have too much contact with Zhangye and run away again in the future.
"Your Highness, how are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhangye didn't care too much about Xiao Ning's attitude. He looked at Shang Xi and said with concern.
Shang Xi opened his mouth to speak when Xiao Ning stuffed a spoonful of food into his mouth.
He could only swallow the medicine in his mouth first.
When he tried to open his mouth again, another spoon was stuffed into his mouth.
Zhangye looked at Xiao Ning and frowned, but saw that Shang Xi looked calm and showed no signs of anger. He even took the initiative to cooperate with Xiao Ning.
In this way, Shang Xi was finally able to open his mouth after finishing the bowl of medicine.
"I'm fine, General Zhang, don't worry."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Ning sneered. She looked at Shang Xi with a meaningful look.
Zhangye was really dissatisfied this time.
"What is General Xiao doing?"
Xiao Ning said, "It's nothing, just a little crazy, you two continue."
Zhangye: “…”
He glanced at Shang Xi and saw that he was not angry, so he didn't say anything more.
After a moment's silence, he told about the situation in Cangzhou City when Shang Xi was unconscious, as well as the arrangements he had made.
After Zhang Ye finished speaking, Shang Xi opened his mouth to speak, but Xiao Ning stuffed another candied fruit into his mouth.
“Is it sweet?”
Shang Xi: “…sweet.”
Zhangye looked at Shang Xi, then at Xiao Ning, and his face turned ashen as he thought of something.
"Your Highness, you will accomplish great things in the future. How can you indulge in male beauty?"
After saying this, Xiao Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at Shang Xi.
Waiting for his answer.
A prince who wants to seize power and indulges in male beauty will indeed be disliked by his ministers.
If he acknowledges her, his future path to becoming emperor will be difficult.
Of course, she would not allow him to become emperor.
Instead of admitting her...
Xiao Ning narrowed his eyes.
She would let him know why the flowers were so red.
Shang Xi didn't consider Zhang Ye's feelings at all and answered very directly.
"General Zhang, Aning is not a homosexual. He is the one I love most. He is my husband, with whom I have exchanged engagement letters and have sworn ties to heaven and earth."
Zhangye's pupils contracted sharply.
He staggered back two steps.
"Your Highness..."
"How could you say such a thing?"
"You are doing this to the late emperor..."
"How can you gain the support of the ministers if you are like this?"
"Even if you're a homosexual, you can't bring it up publicly. Don't show your emotions, and don't let others know about your preferences..."
"Otherwise, why would anyone be willing to follow you? Everyone will think that you..." It will be difficult to achieve anything great!
Shang Xi said, "There's nothing secret about my relationship with Xiao Ning. Wouldn't General Zhang let people know who your wife is?"
Zhangye: “…This is different.”
His wife was a woman, and she had given birth to three children for him, providing him with an heir and taking care of his household affairs...
Shang Xi said, "There's nothing different. You and Madam Zhang are married, and so are I and Aning."
"Our wedding was witnessed by everyone in Shengjing, from the emperor to the common people."
Zhang Ye: "...Your Highness, that wedding was all because of you dressing up as a princess!"
Shang Xi said, "General Zhang, you don't need to say more. I love Aning, and that will never change, whether I live or die. If you can't accept it, you don't have to follow me and be loyal to me anymore."
"The throne is certainly important, but it is not worth giving up the one I love."
Xiao Ning: “…”
Who is this kid picking?
Zhangye was so shocked by Shang Xi's remarks that he almost fainted.
What does it mean that the throne is important, but it is not worth giving up the person he loves?
Just a man.
After becoming the emperor, won’t you have plenty of things you want?
There are many aristocratic families who like homosexuality, but that is just a pastime to relieve boredom. Who would marry such a thing and treat it like a wife?
He also said that Xiao Ning was more important than the throne.
Zhangye admits that Xiao Ning is indeed an outstanding general, but can Xiao Ning be the queen of Dayong?
Male queen?
Isn’t that ridiculous?
Who would be loyal to such a king?
Zhangye looked at Shang Xi, his face full of grief.
This made Shang Xi feel a little uncomfortable.
Are he and Xiao Ning really so unacceptable to the world?
Is it really impossible to have both the kingdom and the beauty?
Although at the moment he reunited with Xiao Ning, he might never be able to see Jiang Shan again...
But he still felt uncomfortable.
Shang Xi looked at Zhang Ye, who looked grief-stricken, and whispered, "General Zhang, go back. You don't need to come visit me anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhangye was shocked.
"Your Highness..."
He said in a trembling voice.
Shang Xi smiled and said, "General Zhang, I still say the same thing. Xiao Ning is my husband, whom I have sworn to be my husband. I will not let go."
Zhangye almost staggered out of the house.
After Zhangye left, Xiao Ning looked at Shang Xi and said, "Why bother?"
Shang Xi stared at her and said, "So Aning thinks I said something wrong, and you don't want people to know about our relationship?"
Xiao Ning: "...Can you please stop blaming me? Tell me, among the 100,000 brothers in my Xiao Family Army, who doesn't know about our relationship?"
Hearing this, Shang Xi smiled.
He reached out and held Xiao Ning's hand.
"Aning, you are the most important in my heart."
Xiao Ning said: "Since I am the most important, why did you run away last time?"
Shang Xi's outstretched hand paused in mid-air.
After a long while, he whispered, "You promised me that you would help me become emperor, but when I arrived in Jinzhou, not only did you not want to keep your promise, you even wanted to imprison me."
"I originally thought, let me be imprisoned. If you really love me, I can give up everything."
"But you don't want to do it with me. I beg you, but you don't want to."
"Aning, sometimes I feel like you love me, but sometimes, I can't feel your love."
Xiao Ning was silent for a moment, then said, "...Shang Xi, from the beginning, I wanted to support the empress. I thought you were a woman, so I said that."
"If I had known you were a man, I would never have said that to you."
"As for why I don't want to do it with you..."
Xiao Ning paused here, feeling a lump in his chest and a bit uncomfortable.
