Chapter 83 How did she become the second prince's mother?
What are the common things for couples? 】
[Who is your spouse?] 】
Zhu Wenqin felt ashamed and angry. She couldn't help but recall last night's scene in her mind, and her face suddenly felt even hotter.
He suddenly lowered his head and buried his face in Jing Siye's arms, and a muffled voice came out:
"I don't want to be married to you."
Jing Siye's lips curled up into a smile unconsciously, and he kissed the top of his head.
"If Qin'er doesn't marry me, then who should she marry?"
"I won't follow anyone."
Having said that, he buried his face even deeper.
"That won't do. I'm dependent on you for the rest of my life. How about I follow you?" Jing Siye said half-jokingly and half-seriously, his eyes full of doting.
Zhu Wenqin raised her head:
[Is this okay?] 】
He hesitated for a moment, then said boldly:
"That's fine, but in that case, you have to call me husband."
When Zhu Wenqin said this, he was nervous inside, wondering if the prince would get angry and throw him to the ground.
However, to his surprise, Jing Siye said without hesitation:
"Okay, the king agrees."
Zhu Wenqin: “…”
[I just want to satisfy my momentary eloquence.] 】
[He just agreed...]
"...Really? Your Highness is not deliberately teasing Qin'er, right?"
Jing Siye said seriously: "I never joke, my husband."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Wenqin's face was filled with astonishment, and then her back immediately straightened.
"Well, in that case, I'll promise you for now. You have to behave well, or I'll divorce you."
Jing Siye: “…”
This prince will definitely "perform" well.
"Yes, husband, I bought various cakes at Lian Kwai Fong when I came back. Would you like some?"
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, her eyes lit up immediately and she asked excitedly, "Really? Where is it?"
Jing Siye shook his head unhappily, but with a look of doting on his face, he pointed to the table next to him.
Zhu Wenqin looked over there and saw a few packages of pastries.
"Bring it here quickly and feed me." Zhu Wenqin said impatiently.
"Okay, I'll feed my husband now."
——
Zhu Wenqin rested in bed for three whole days. During this period, Jing Siye worked tirelessly, bringing her water and feeding her, taking care of her wholeheartedly, no matter how big or small. It was this kind of thoughtful care that finally earned Zhu Wenqin's forgiveness.
When Zhu Wenqin recovered a little, Jing Siye took him to Zhu's mother's place.
As soon as she arrived at the teahouse, Zhu Wenqin couldn't wait and ran straight to her mother's room. Jing Siye led a few guards to the second floor.
At this time, Nangong Ling made an exception and came to the appointment.
"What? You want me to investigate those who support Concubine Chen? Why don't you go yourself? You are a prince, can't you handle such a trivial matter?"
Jing Siye looked calm and explained slowly:
"I am also worried about alerting the enemy. Bai Zhuo has already entered the palace, and it is inconvenient to secretly investigate these matters. Moreover, most of the people around me are well known by those officials."
Nangong Ling couldn't help but admire: "You placed Bai Zhuo next to the prince. This move is really brilliant."
Jing Siye shook his head slightly: "He volunteered to do this, I did not force him."
Nangong Ling was speechless for a moment, thinking to herself: He is really loyal.
Then, he replied helplessly: "Okay, give those lists to this leader. If this leader was not also determined to find out the truth about the master's murder, he would not have intervened in this muddy water."
The two had an in-depth discussion, and after the important matter was settled, they went downstairs together.
Jing Siye saw Zhu Wenqin still in his mother's room, and thought that he should go and say hello, so he walked towards the backyard.
Before he got close, he heard Zhu's mother's surprised voice:
"What, you...you asked the prince to call you husband?" Then, he asked with concern: "Qin'er...you didn't get beaten, did you?"
Zhu Wenqin responded confidently with a somewhat arrogant tone:
"How is that possible? How dare he? He has been shouting for three days. Now everyone in the mansion knows about it."
Mother Zhu was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and advised earnestly:
"Qin'er, the prince is so majestic and high-handed. In my opinion... you should change the way you address him."
Zhu Wenqin turned her head stubbornly and said firmly:
"No, even if he is the prince, now in the palace, I, Qin'er, have the final say. If he doesn't do what I want, humph, don't even think about touching me for a month."
"Touch you? You...you guys?"
Zhu's mother's eyes widened instantly, her face full of shock, the second half of the sentence stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it.
Zhu Wenqin then realized that she had said something wrong and hurriedly changed the subject:
"Well, mother, I'll go see how the prince is discussing things, and come back to see you."
Having said that, he hurriedly stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhu's mother. Mother Zhu looked worried and said slowly:
"Qin'er, your mother can't stop you, but there are some things you have to be mentally prepared for. King Zhaonan is the second prince, and he will have to marry in the future. When that time comes, what will you do? Have you thought about it?"
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, her heart sank suddenly, and a barely perceptible sadness flashed across her mind.
But soon, he raised his head, looked at Mother Zhu firmly, and said softly:
"Mother, the prince said that he doesn't like women, so don't worry."
Mother Zhu still looked worried, and murmured: "He said this now, it's hard to say what will happen in the future..."
Jing Siye heard the conversation inside the house from outside, cleared his throat and coughed twice deliberately to remind the people in the house that he was here.
When Zhu's mother heard the sound, she immediately stopped talking. Zhu Wenqin quickly stepped forward to open the door, took Jing Siye's arm, and asked with a smile:
"My Lord, have you discussed everything?"
Jing Siye nodded slightly and responded, "Yeah."
Zhu Wenqin turned to look at Mother Zhu and said, "Mother, we will go ahead then."
"Wait a moment."
Mother Zhu hurried out with small steps, looking somewhat embarrassed and uneasy.
"Your Majesty, Qin'er has been spoiled by me since he was a child. If there is any offense, please don't take it to heart. Just think of it as... he is young and ignorant."
Jing Siye naturally understood what Zhu's mother meant. He gently took Zhu Wenqin's hand, looked at him tenderly and affectionately, and then said to Zhu's mother solemnly:
"Mother, Qin'er is now being taken care of by me. You can rest assured that I will never let him suffer any injustice."
"Mother?"
When Zhu's mother heard this name, she was stunned for a moment, unable to react at all for a moment. She was panicked and quickly knelt down, stammering:
"I don't deserve this title... Your Majesty, this... this..." How come I suddenly became the mother of the second prince?
Seeing this, Jing Siye and Zhu Wenqin hurriedly reached out to help her up.
Zhu Wenqin rushed to the front, with happiness on her face, and said with a smile:
"Mother, the prince is just like what you see. He is so kind to Qin'er that there is nothing to say."
In fact, Zhu Wenqin was also deeply shocked by Jing Siye's natural and intimate "mother" just now. At this moment, his heart felt as sweet as if it was smeared with honey.
Jing Siye also said: "Qin'er is right. I have some things to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. I'll come to visit you later."
