Qi Qingyun lay greedily in her arms, and the scorching warm body temperature made his face red:
"Qingyun knows that my wife loves me, but my wife is the Crown Princess, of noble status. Not calling her 'Your Highness' is already disrespectful. If she doesn't even call me 'my wife', it would be truly treasonous."
Chu Jun...
Chu Jun...
Ah Chu...
How much he wanted to call out these two words...
However, there is a difference between the high and the low. He has already caused a lot of dissatisfaction by ascending to a position of respect by everyone with his broken body.
If it weren't for the Queen of Chu's strong tactics, resolute attitude, remarkable ability, outstanding political achievements, and the love of the people, she would have been stripped of her qualifications as the Crown Princess long ago.
If he doesn't know the difference between respect and inferiority, and doesn't know how to advance and retreat, neither he nor the King of Chu will have a good ending.
He doesn't want to... doesn't want to leave Chu Jun...
As long as he could stay by her side, he could do anything and was willing to do anything.
"Forget it..." She sighed softly, reached out to hug his thin body tightly, and pulled him closer to her arms.
"Go to sleep."
He had been afraid of cold since childhood and suffered from heart disease. When he was fourteen years old, he went into the water to save her in the cold winter and almost died. Although he barely survived in the end, his body was already at the end of its rope and was hanging on for dear life.
Long Chujun collected all the miraculous medicines in the world for him and provided him with them for three whole years before his health finally improved a little.
But the root cause of the fear of cold has always persisted.
Fortunately, she has the blood of the Phoenix, and her divine fire can dispel all severe cold, so her body is always as warm as a furnace, which is very suitable for keeping him warm and warding off the cold.
So, even though she had many husbands and servants, she still insisted on coming to Wutong Palace every day to sleep with him. Since he married her at the age of seventeen, she had never stopped doing so for three years.
Their love was envied by the world, but also made the royal family angry and lament.
How noble is the Phoenix Divine Fire? Under the whole heaven, among the six realms, only their royal family possesses this bloodline.
But the disadvantages are also obvious.
The previous emperor was accidentally affected by this overbearing divine fire and became manic and irritable. He could not distinguish right from wrong and even killed hundreds of royal relatives, and even spared no effort for his own brothers!
He gradually became so cruel and merciless that he killed his brothers and sisters, imprisoned his wife, and held his relatives in custody. This was outrageous. Everyone in the court was terrified and unable to rule. The people dared to be angry but not to speak out.
Fortunately, the empress took action to stop his atrocities, saved the ministers from danger, and brought peace to the people.
Therefore, the people were grateful to her, and the old ministers worshipped her and regarded her as a god.
Therefore, even if the empress changed the dynasty and established the Phoenix Kingdom where women were respected, they would not have any objection.
"So that's how it is!"
Shen Wuyou suddenly understood and immediately felt an overwhelming respect for the Empress Huang Quan, whom he had never met before.
The sun rises and the sky becomes bright, the sun shines brightly.
They were following the lead of Weng Haifeng, making their way forward through the magnificent underground passage.
Hao!
So fucking rich and inhumane!
Don’t underestimate this small secret passage. The brightly lit and golden walls are made of pure gold!
Every five meters there is a firework lamp, swaying high in the pure gold lamp base. The orange-red flame is so hot that it seems like we have returned to the hot summer.
Shen Wuyou, the unfortunate plant demon, suddenly felt a bit hot and stuffy, and took off his heavy cloak. But the coolness was only temporary. After wandering around in the tunnel for who knows how long, the heat came back.
He leaned towards Ling Wangqing, and the breath of the Extreme Hell Fire made her feel refreshed.
Weng Haifeng, who was leading the way, saw that they had almost walked, so he whispered a reminder:
"Brother An, my master likes quietness, so please don't make any noise when you see him. As for that flower demon..."
He rubbed his hands together and smiled flatteringly: "I have already informed the master, and I hope Brother An can say a few good words about me in front of the master..."
An Lanqing smiled gently: "Don't worry, Brother Weng."
It’s okay to say nice things.
As for whether you can bear his kind words, it is unknown...

The early mornings in Wutong Palace are always busy.
Every time Long Chujun got up in the morning, he had to take some effort. He held his breath and carefully lifted the quilt, then got out of bed quietly and tucked the corners of the quilt for him to prevent him from catching a cold.
The palace maids were already used to it. They walked over quickly with light steps, helped her wash and dress, and then followed Long Chujun out of the room silently.
Because of his frail body, they all thought that Qi Qingyun would sleep until noon. But they didn't know that the moment Long Chujun left, the person who should have been sleeping with his eyes closed suddenly opened a pair of gloomy eyes.
Different from the slow and affectionate look of last night, these eyes are now full of coldness and ridicule.
He stood up swiftly, turned around and walked towards a portrait at the back of the hall. Next to it was a jade sculpture depicting an auspicious animal. He gently placed his pale fingers over it and gently twisted it.
The wall behind the portrait slowly turned, revealing a narrow and dark secret passage.
He curled the corners of his mouth, glanced around the room vigilantly, then waved his sleeves and strode towards the secret passage.
This posture and speed are not what a person who has been ill for a long time should have.
Long Aojun was in a very bad mood in the dark cell, but he couldn't vent his anger on that group of dumb people who knew nothing. So he could only burn all those expensive ornaments and jewels to soothe his wounded heart.
In three days, he had changed countless decorations here, and he didn't feel tired even after going back and forth.
Look, he got angry and was about to burn something again.
However, just as his hand moved, he suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from the stone door. He turned around and saw a thin figure slowly approaching. The familiar face made him squint.
"Oh, who did this prince think he was? Isn't this my sickly brother-in-law? How come, after finally being able to get out of bed, he starts to cause trouble for me again?"
He looked down on this future brother-in-law from the bottom of his heart. The reason was simple: he was weak and pretentious! Disgusting!
When they went to bed, he brought disaster to his sister, and when they got out of bed, he brought disaster to the entire royal family.
Because of him, the imperial sister had a very difficult time during that period. Now she finally silenced those ministers with her political achievements, but this guy is restless and built a secret room privately!
Qi Qingyun looked at him coldly, his eyes revealing contempt, and raised his lips and said:
"No matter how unwilling you are, what can I do? I am still your sister's husband, so you still have to call me your sister-in-law!"
"Bah!"
Long Aojun spat with disgust on his face, then suddenly thought of something and his smile gradually turned playful:
"Qi Yaoguan'er, how long do you think you can stay in this position? If the Imperial Sister finds out that you've trapped this prince, guess what, will your fate be in the Sky Prison or on the execution ground?"
