Chapter 177 Sleeping Together



"Shall we go down and take a look?" Su Wanyan looked at Yu Nanqing.

"Together," Yu Nanqing replied.

After getting off the carriage, Su Wanyan saw that the escorting soldiers had already begun to set up tents for their masters.

The faster ones have already set up, but because they arrived late, their progress is only about halfway done.

Looking up, one can see a magnificent and enormous tent, as grand as a pavilion, with a bright yellow color and dragon flags flying on it. That is the imperial tent where Emperor Yuanhe resided.

Surrounding the imperial tent were first the tents of the concubines and princes.

Because of Yu Nanqing's status, their tent was very close to the imperial tent, and correspondingly, the princess's tent was not far away either.

Su Wanyan was stretching when the palace maids and eunuchs from the imperial kitchen brought her the meal.

Because the tents hadn't been set up yet, Su Wanyan and Yu Nanqing ate their meal in the carriage.

After the meal, another imperial physician came and asked to take Yu Nanqing's pulse. Yu Nanqing was unhappy and dismissed them with a gloomy face.

When we arrived at the hunting grounds, it was still slightly light, but in no time, it became dark.

Emperor Yuanhe sent eunuchs to each tent to convey a message: it is late today, so the imperial relatives and nobles in each tent should rest here, and they will go to the imperial tent early tomorrow morning to hold the opening ceremony of the hunt.

This was exactly what Su Wanyan wanted to do. Although she wasn't tired after a day in the carriage, it was mentally taxing.

only……

There was only one bed in the tent.

Su Wanyan hugged her pillow and looked at the large bed in front of her, not knowing what to do.

She asked Yu Nanqing, "What should we do if there's no couch?"

She hadn't expected to bring a couch when she came to the spring hunt.

"..." asked him what to do.

He's so happy he could die.

But he dared not show it on his face.

He was afraid that if his little scheme were exposed, Su Wanyan would dislike him even more.

"Cough..." Yu Nanqing clenched her fist to her mouth and tentatively said, "Then... we can only sleep together."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Wanyan out of the corner of his eye.

Su Wanyan immediately rejected the suggestion in her mind.

There was a large wooden platform under the bed. To get from the ground to the bed, you had to step over a step. Su Wanyan noticed that there was still space on the wooden platform under the bed.

"How about... I sleep on the floor?"

"..."

Yu Nanqing was unwilling: "If others knew that you and I, husband and wife, do not sleep in the same bed..."

"Who would come into our bedroom?" Before he could finish speaking, Su Wanyan gave him a speechless look.

Even Qiuye and Huangye need her permission to come in, let alone Xiaobu and Tanaka, who always report things from the outer tent.

Who's so lazy as to dare to break into their bedroom?

"..." Yu Nanqing had no words to refute.

As Su Wanyan spoke, she called out, "Qiuye, go and get another quilt."

"..." Yu Nanqing had no choice but to say, "I'll just sleep on the floor."

Although spring has brought warmer weather, it is still chilly in the wild. This hunting ground is not like the Prince Gong's mansion. It would be bad if Su Wanyan caught a cold.

"Forget it, I'll just sleep on the floor. You're much more precious than me," Su Wanyan said, then chuckled, "Besides, if you sleep on the floor, where are you going to stretch your legs in such a small space?"

She's different; she can curl up comfortably in a small space.

"If you insist, then I will sleep on the floor with you." How could he bear to let Su Wanyan sleep on the floor?

Su Wanyan frowned, hugged her pillow and sat down by the bed: "What a waste that such a big bed will be empty. We don't want both of us to end up with aches and pains in our backs."

"Then you sleep on the bed," Yu Nanqing said gently.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanyan frowned and thought it over. Pushing and shoving back and forth seemed too pretentious, but it was inappropriate to let Yu Nanqing sleep on the ground, and she also felt bad about it.

After hesitating for a while, he said, "Actually, it's not impossible for us to sleep in the same bed."

Yu Nanqing's eyes brightened slightly, and the corners of her lips immediately turned up in a smile. Without even thinking, she replied with a single word: "Okay."

Su Wanyan nodded: "Okay."

She suddenly got up, rolled up a blanket on the bed, placed it in the middle, pointed to the bed and said to Yu Nanqing, "This is the middle line. You sleep on the left, and I'll sleep on the right. No one can cross this line when we sleep at night, understand?"

"..." The corners of her lips, which had just been turned up, froze instantly upon hearing these words.

What... what a brilliant idea is this?

Well, at least they could sleep in the same bed, so he didn't dare to ask for anything more.

"Luckily, this bed is big enough, otherwise even if I rolled the blanket up in the middle, there wouldn't be enough room to sleep." Su Wanyan said as she put the pillow on the bed.

Just then, Qiuye's voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, the bedding you requested."

"Oh, bring it in."

Qiu Ye carried the bedding into the inner tent, and Su Wanyan stepped forward to take it, then instructed, "Go and get another quilt."

Qiu Ye was stunned. "So many blankets? Is Your Highness so cold?"

Despite his thoughts, he didn't dare to delay and nodded repeatedly before heading off.

Su Wanyan spread the quilt on the bed, and Yu Nanqing rolled forward in his wheelchair: "Let me help you."

"You should sit down," Su Wanyan said without turning her head.

Yu Nanqing pursed his lips, his hands clenching together as if itching, rubbing his thumbs and forefingers back and forth. Even though he was already better and couldn't help with big things, he could at least do these small favors.

Why pretend to be sick when you're finally going on a trip together, especially since it's just the two of you?

After Qiuye brought over the other quilt, Su Wanyan made up both beds and looked at Yu Nanqing: "I'm going to sleep now, when are you going to sleep?"

"……Now."

As Yu Nanqing spoke, she slowly stood up from her wheelchair.

He walked past Su Wanyan to the bedside and sat down gently.

Yu Nanqing's leg has fully recovered.

Su Wanyan was overjoyed to see him walking steadily, step by step.

This happened seven days ago. Seven days ago, Yu Nanqing was already able to throw away his crutches and walk like a normal person.

Not only can he walk, Su Wanyan tested him and he had no problem walking, running, jumping, or stretching. Moreover, Yu Nanqing also tried Qigong exercises and his pulse and body were completely normal.

The only slight drawback is that, considering his height, he is still rather thin.

After all, he was paralyzed for three years and hadn't eaten properly for three years. It's already quite good that he's recovered so much in just six months. Now that he's fully recovered, he won't have any more problems with eating in the future.

He didn't know what Su Wanyan was feeling at this moment, but Yu Nanqing was quite nervous.

My heart was beating uncontrollably, and faster and faster.

He sat awkwardly on the edge of the bed, unsure of how to react. Although he wanted to sleep with Su Wanyan, he realized that he couldn't be calm when he was actually sitting on the same bed.

Su Wanyan had no idea about his complicated schemes. She lifted the covers and lay down, then neatly covered herself with the blankets.
