"Besides, wasn't it Zhenzhen who wanted to leave just now?"
Wanruo gritted her teeth in anger. He always had a lot of big principles and could block anyone he wanted.
He rubbed her face and changed the subject: "Su Yan has to return to Beijing next month."
Wanruo was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "Really?"
"He has done well in Yangzhou. After his three-year term is up, it's time for him to be transferred back to Beijing. There aren't many people in the court who can handle important positions. We can't let him just sit there and relax forever."
A new emperor appoints new ministers. In the three years since Emperor Xuan ascended the throne, he has been secretly weakening the power of the followers of the previous dynasty, and someone has to take the power that is released.
While she was happy, Wanruo couldn't help but worry: "It's only been three years. Is it really okay for Qinghan to come back and show up now? Is the Empress Dowager also in good health..."
The previous emperor did not depose the empress, so after Emperor Xiao ascended the throne, he naturally had to respect the previous empress as the empress dowager. Although he had been secretly suppressing the empress dowager and not giving her any real power, the forces behind the empress dowager, headed by her mother's clan, the Wang family, were still a major concern for Emperor Xiao.
"The Queen Mother is so busy taking care of herself that she has no time to care about her."
The Queen Mother relied on the Wang family and the fugitive Prince of Zhennan, but three years after Emperor Xuan ascended the throne, the throne had gradually become stable. The Prince of Zhennan was like a grasshopper waiting for death, and the power of the Wang family in the court had been secretly weakened.
The emperor is firmly seated on the throne, so the past events of the previous dynasty are nothing. Who dares to mention them?
Wanruo became happy: "Then Qinghan will be back soon. Ayan is already two years old, and I haven't met him yet."
They had only been to Yangzhou once three years ago when Chen Qinghan and Su Yan got married. They had not seen each other for three years since then. Chen Qinghan and Su Yan had a son two years ago, and Wanruo had only seen him in letters.
"What's so strange about a little kid?"
Wanruo's face fell. There was no one here who was more depressing than him!
"So what do you mean by strange?"
He leaned forward and kissed her on the cheek: "Don't you know what I cherish?"
She avoided him: "It's already late, I'm sleepy!"
"Then you go to sleep." He began to kiss her neck.
“…”
Zhenzhen is even more clingy than Lin'er. Since she was born, she almost never sleeps unless she sticks to Wanruo. So he spent another year going hungry and full.
When the little guy finally understood what he said and fell asleep on his own after just a few seconds of nagging, Xie Xianyu finally felt a little more at ease.
Wanruo was angry and didn't want to pay attention to him, so he bit her earlobe and whispered, "Wanwan, Wanwan."
The voice was so tender and gentle that it seemed as if she was drowning in water.
Wanruo couldn't stand him like this. All the anger she had been holding in her heart disappeared inexplicably. She trembled slightly, bit her lips, and her cheeks flushed.
The corners of his lips curled slightly. After being married for several years, how could he not control her?
The next day, Wanruo slept until noon before getting up.
"Is the young lady awake?" Cuizhu heard the noise and came in with the maids carrying toiletries.
Wanruo's body felt like it had been broken apart, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Hmm."
She took the tea brought by the maid and moistened her throat with it, and then she felt a little better.
She only regretted that she had been distracted by passion last night, which had led to his unscrupulous torment. She gritted her teeth in hatred at the thought.
She glanced at the sun outside and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's almost noon."
"Then why don't you love me!"
Wanruo panicked for a moment. Every morning the housekeeper came to report to her. Especially recently, the fourth branch had a new baby, and there were many things going on in the mansion, so it was inevitable that someone would come to see her.
Cuizhu smiled and said, "Master said that the young lady slept late last night and wouldn't let her go. A few housekeepers came this morning, and Master has already helped the young lady deal with it."
Wan Ruo was stunned: "He dealt with it?"
He could actually listen to trivial matters like the birth of a child and the full moon banquet in the inner house.
Cuizhu nodded sheepishly: "Anyway, it's been dealt with."
In the morning, several maids came to question my son. When they entered the living room and found that it was the master sitting there, they were so scared that they dared not breathe. They honestly confessed everything without daring to play any tricks.
