"I won't leave. I won't leave again." Yan Yu Ning comforted the insecure man.
"Yeah." Xuan Yanyu tightened his arms again and again.
"Xuan Xixi, just now at the gate of the palace, Ye An said that you wanted to lock Xiaoxiao up in the ancestral hall. Why?" Yan Yu Ning did not forget to ask.
The man said in a low voice, "Have you seen Xiaoxiao?"
"Well, I secretly took Xiaoxiao's card to enter the palace. Otherwise, how do you think I got into the palace?"
Xuan Yanyu brought the person closer to him, "Are you the Queen Xiaoxiao is talking about?"
"Hmm?" Yan Yu Ning stared at the man in front of her and curled her lips. "Xiao Xiao told you that? I am his queen?"
"He said you said you were his queen, and asked me to send someone to bring you to the palace. I thought..." Xuan Yanyu pursed his lips, "I thought you were the same as those women before, so I scolded him."
Yan Yuning's heart stagnated, "Is it because you thought Xiaoxiao recognized someone else as the queen that you didn't let Xiaoxiao call you father?"
"Yeah." The man rested his chin on the top of her head, and the corners of his mouth curved up, "Ningning, I won't let him recognize someone else as his queen. No one can replace you, not even someone who looks like you."
"Xuan Xixi." Yan Yuning's eyes were slightly red. Listening to the man's strong heartbeat, her voice was filled with sobs, "Did you have a hard time these past five days?"
"Well, it's very bad, so you can't leave me anymore." Xuan Yanyu's voice was filled with dependent grievance.
Yan Yuning felt a sore and painful feeling in her heart, her eyes trembled and she sobbed softly.
"I was just joking. I'm doing very well. Stop crying, okay?" the man coaxed her.
"Nonsense, you've lost weight." Yan Yuning's voice was nasal.
Xuan Yanyu stood up holding Yan Yuning, his eyes, which were usually cold, were filled with a smile today.
After being put on the bed, Yan Yuning grabbed the man's pajamas and wiped her tears, and suddenly asked, "Xuan Xixi, you haven't told me yet why you locked Xiaoxiao into the ancestral hall. It's so late, aren't you afraid of scaring him?"
The man coughed lightly, hung Yan Yuning's clothes on the sandalwood rack, and refused to say anything.
He couldn't say that it was because Qi found his so-called Queen for Xiaoxiao and they had dinner together, and he felt it was unfair to her, so he wanted to punish Xiaoxiao.
Would Ningning blame him for issuing the order without any investigation?
Fortunately, Ye Chen did not do as he said, otherwise, he would not forgive himself.
"Is it difficult to speak?" Yan Yuning pulled the quilt over to cover herself.
The candlelight was dim. Xuan Yanyu stared at the woman whose eyes and eyebrows became more and more beautiful and delicate, and licked his lips.
Yan Yuning stretched out her hand and hooked her arm around his neck, "Don't want to talk?"
At such a close distance, Xuan Yanyu's gaze gradually became hot. He lowered his eyes and kissed Yan Yuning on her lips, his hand groped for the imperial curtain and put it down.
The breathing sound gradually became heavier, and the imperial curtain seemed to be blown by the wind, sometimes fluttering and sometimes falling.
Meeting the man's burning eyes, Yan Yuning frowned slightly and couldn't help but let out a soft moan.
Outside the bedroom tonight, one can not only hear the occasional chirping of insects, but also the man's faint low breathing and the woman's subtle humming.
——
The next morning, Yan Yuning had just woken up when she heard the guards outside the palace loudly report to her, "Your Majesty, it's bad, the Crown Prince is unconscious."
"Your Majesty, please go and see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is seriously ill. Please go and see him."
Yan Yuning sat up in shock, then lay down on the soft pillow weakly.
"Don't worry about it." The man pulled the quilt over Yan Yuning and covered her with it. His voice was hazy and low. "He was just pretending. He barely slept last night. Just close your eyes and get some rest."
"No." Yan Yuning cleared her hoarse throat, "I have to go and take a look, even if I'm pretending. I won't feel at ease if I don't."
Xuan Yanyu opened his eyes helplessly, "I will go to the Prince's Mansion to take a look, you can go to the bedroom to rest."
