Looking at Zhou Jun's worried face, Han Kun realized it was the first time he had ever seen the man lose his composure.
"I... sigh, never mind!"
"By the way, how are you feeling after getting married? Does Linlang care about you?"
Han Kun's cheeks flushed slightly as he spoke: "I don't really care. Actually, it's not much different from usual! We're both still busy with our own things, except that we eat together in the evening, chat, and then rest!"
Zhou Jun recalled what happened that day. Although his mind was not clear at the time, he still remembered many things. That time, the two of them were really crazy.
"Why is your face suddenly so red?" Han Kun asked his friend in surprise.
"I guess I drank a bit too much!"
"Han Kun, sometimes I'm quite envious of you. You don't have a mother, and nobody takes care of you. Unlike me..."
Zhou Jun recounted the recent events to Han Kun, who frowned slightly upon hearing them: "Then you should go to Yancheng to look for Wang Yan! It's obvious she was in a bad mood when she left! When people are in a bad mood, they're prone to doing impulsive things!"
"Impulsive?" Zhou Jun asked, puzzled.
"Don't forget, she's reached a certain age. If her father introduces her to another man and asks her to marry him, do you think Wang Yan, with her impulsive personality, would agree?"
"She wouldn't dare!" Zhou Jun's face turned cold. Wang Yan was his woman; how could she possibly marry someone else?
"That's hard to say! When a woman acts impulsively, no one can stop her! Especially since Wang Yan is..."
Han Kun quickly shut his mouth; he had spoken too hastily and almost revealed the secret.
"What did you just say about Wang Yan?" Zhou Jun was extremely intelligent, having spent years navigating the complexities of life. Han Kun's unfinished words had cleared his head considerably, and he stared sharply at Han Kun.
"I...I promised Linlang I wouldn't tell anyone!"
Han Kun quickly covered his mouth. Matters between the two of them should be discussed and resolved by the two of them. Outsiders have no right to say anything casually.
"Han Kun, are we still good brothers?" Zhou Jun narrowed her eyes dangerously, and Han Kun secretly felt a headache when he saw her like this.
However, considering the consequences, if Wang Yan really acted impulsively and wanted to find a ready-made father for the child in her womb, then...
"I really don't know!"
Han Kun stubbornly insisted on his words, but he dipped his finger in the wine and wrote two words on the table!
When Zhou Jun saw those two words, his pupils contracted, and he looked at him with disbelief: "Really?"
"Those women should all know! I heard it from Linlang. Zhou Jun, don't tell them I told you, or I won't be able to get into bed tonight!"
Zhou Jun had already stormed off in a huff. Watching his hurried departure, Han Kun sighed helplessly, "That guy really is fast!"
"They're not even married yet, and he already has a child! No way, I'll get married before him, I absolutely can't be slower than him in this matter!"
If Du Linlang knew what he said, she'd probably make him sleep in the study for half a month.
...
The guest list for the palace banquet was quickly finalized. After Han Luoxue checked it, Nightingale suggested, "Your Majesty, perhaps we shouldn't let them bring their families."
"Those women are all scheming. Once they see the Emperor, they can't take their eyes off him. They all wish they could climb into the Emperor's bed."
Hearing this, Han Luoxue simply smiled and said, "Alright, don't worry about it anymore. I know what I'm doing!"
"How can we not bring our families on such a lively occasion?"
As for the dishes to be served at the banquet, Han Luoxue had already thought it through! A buffet was definitely out of the question, but they could reduce the portion sizes.
She noticed last time that the people who came to the banquet didn't eat much, and there was a lot of food left on each table. It was such a waste!
"Your Majesty, you're creating an opportunity for them!"
Nightingale pouted unhappily when she saw that Han Luoxue was going to set up a huge stage: "Even if you didn't set up this stage, those women would be eager to strip naked and perform on it. Now that you've set it up, I'm worried that they will try their best to seduce the Emperor!"
Han Luoxue waved her hand thoughtfully, "It would be boring to just eat the whole time! We set up this stage so that those noble ladies could perform. This way, they can eat and watch a show at the same time—it couldn't be more enjoyable!"
Ye Xue disagreed: "But Your Majesty, what if the Emperor takes a fancy to someone else?"
"You mean the Emperor? If she takes a fancy to any of them, she can just marry them. There's plenty of room in the palace anyway, she can take as many as she wants, I have no objection!"
The two maids looked at Han Luoxue in surprise. They had no idea when their Empress had become so generous.
"Oh, Your Majesty, you're not serious, are you?"
Han Luoxue nodded solemnly: "It's definitely true, more real than real gold! If he takes a fancy to someone, I have no objection, and he can marry her if he wants. Let alone being a concubine, I can even give up being the empress. I'll leave with my two children, and he can have as many as he wants!"
"Han! Luo! Xue!"
A roar sent shivers down everyone's spines.
The two girls hurriedly ran away, and Han Luoxue also wanted to run after them, but she was caught before she could run more than a few steps.
"Ah, Your Majesty, I..."
Han Luoxue hated herself for being so talkative; she had gotten so carried away that she had forgotten to check if anyone was coming.
"You want to run away with my child?" The man lowered his head, his handsome face turning cold, and asked through gritted teeth!
"Brother Chen, was I just using an analogy?"
"Actually, I can still consider it!"
"Ah, no..."
Before Han Luoxue could react, she was seen on his shoulder, her buttocks facing upwards. Han Luoxue struggled fiercely, but the man raised his hand and slapped her buttocks twice.
"You... Brother Chen, how dare you hit me!" Han Luoxue blushed with embarrassment. It was bad enough that she was carried back, but she didn't know how many people had seen her along the way. She had her pride too, you know.
What's even worse is that this man actually spanked her butt!
How many years has it been since she was beaten?
"What did you just say?" Back in the room, Han Luoxue was thrown onto the bed. The man leaned over her, pinning her down, his handsome face close to her nose, and asked, word by word.
"I... I was telling the truth!"
Han Luoxue's cheeks flushed red; she had just been encouraged.
“I told you before that if you ever have another woman by your side, I will definitely take the child and stay far away from you! Now so many people want to get into your bed, and I'm not even allowed to complain?”
