Chapter 73 Night Talk



Liu Tangxi was just wondering what he meant when he heard a strange voice from the side.

"You, you, you, you... you are... you are disrespectful and immoral!"

Suddenly, Liu Tangxi was startled, let go of Wei Hanzhou, frowned, and looked towards the source of the sound.

The man was dressed in pink clothes, had a fair complexion and looked very coquettish.

However, when he saw Liu Tangxi's face clearly, the man spoke again, "Ghost ghost ghost ghost..."

Liu Tangxi thought, you are the ghost, your whole family is a ghost.

However, when I heard this, I knew it was another acquaintance.

"Who is this?" Liu Tangxi asked Wei Hanzhou.

Wei Hanzhou said, "Second Prince."

"Oh." Liu Tangxi responded indifferently.

I thought, I have no impression and I don’t remember reading it in a book.

It cannot be said that I have no impression at all. The only thing I remember is what Mrs. Chen just said, that a prince came to the mansion several times.

"Second Prince, please." Wei Hanzhou said to the Second Prince.

The second prince looked at Liu Tangxi, then at Wei Hanzhou, and after a long pause, he turned around and ran away.

The eunuch following behind him hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please slow down."

Liu Tangxi frowned and said, "Why is this prince so weird?"

The princes of the Dali Dynasty were all weirder than each other. Was there no normal one?

Wei Hanzhou retracted his gaze and walked towards the mansion. "Let's go."

"Yeah." Liu Tangxi responded.

However, she was still a little curious and asked, "What is this Second Prince doing here? Why is he with you?"

Wei Hanzhou said, "I met him in the palace. The second prince said he wanted to go back with me to discuss the problem."

"Has he been here before?"

Wei Hanzhou nodded and said, “I have been here.”

Liu Tangxi thought, it was indeed him.

"Would you like to ask about matters in the court?" Liu Tangxi asked another question.

Wei Hanzhou paused.

Liu Tangxi thought it involved some political affairs, so he didn't ask any further questions.

However, Wei Hanzhou said, "No, it's about scientific research."

"Ah? Imperial examination?" Liu Tangxi was extremely surprised. "Is this prince going to be the chief examiner?"

That's ridiculous.

The chief examiner is usually an important official in the court, so there is no way a prince would go there.

Wei Hanzhou paused and said, "No, the second prince wants to take the imperial examination."

Liu Tangxi had a strange look on his face, and finally understood why Wei Hanzhou was hesitant to speak.

A prince going to take the imperial examination?

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and said, "The Second Prince is obsessed with learning."

"oh."

Liu Tangxi had a bad impression of this prince and did not discuss the prince's affairs with Wei Hanzhou anymore.

She prepared a table full of delicious dishes and wanted to enjoy them with Wei Hanzhou.

"Let's not talk about him anymore. The food is ready. Husband, go change your clothes and wash up."

Wei Hanzhou took a look at the furnishings in the house and the extra servants in the yard, vaguely guessed something, and nodded in agreement.

When I got inside, I saw

The empty room became full and more certain.

After Wei Hanzhou had packed up, the servants came over from the kitchen with the food.

Mrs. Chen held up the food box and asked, "Madam, do you want to heat up the food in here?"

Liu Tangxi looked at the familiar food box with some surprise.

Isn’t this the food box she asked someone to deliver meals to Wei Hanzhou?

"Are there any vegetables in here?" Liu Tangxi walked over.

At this time, a cough was heard. "Cough."

Liu Tangxi raised his eyes and looked over.

Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips and glanced at the food box with a complicated expression.

Liu Tangxi became even more confused.

"Yes, the master would heat up the food here every day when he came back. I thought, today the madam made new food, I wonder if I need to heat it up again for the master." Mrs. Chen said truthfully.

Liu Tangxi finally understood the meaning of Wei Hanzhou's eyes.

In other words, she brought lunch to Wei Hanzhou every day, but Wei Hanzhou was reluctant to finish it, so he brought the leftovers back and ate them in the evening?

She suddenly felt that Wei Hanzhou was really pitiful.

No wonder you lost so much weight.

It was such a hot day, and the food was kept in the lunch box, so it might have gone bad long ago.

"No, just pour it out."

"Yes, ma'am."

Liu Tangxi knew that this incident made Wei Hanzhou embarrassed, so she said nothing. She waved her hand and asked everyone to go back to eat. Only she and Wei Hanzhou were left in the room.

At the dinner table, Liu Tangxi transformed herself into a little bee and diligently picked up food for Wei Hanzhou.

"Eat more, husband. You've lost weight."

"Um."

Wei Hanzhou also picked up some food for Liu Tangxi, "My lady, eat more too. You look thinner than before."

Liu Tangxi immediately put down his chopsticks, touched his face, and asked with a smile, "Really? Have I really lost weight?"

Wei Hanzhou nodded, "Yes."

Last night, knowing that she would be back today, she deliberately ate less.

Hearing Wei Hanzhou say that she had lost weight, Liu Tangxi smiled happily and started eating happily.

Both of them were in a good mood and ate a little more.

Liu Tangxi was particularly happy when she saw Wei Hanzhou had finished all the dishes.

After dinner, Wei Hanzhou, who rarely did not read, went to the small garden with Liu Tangxi to digest his food.

The lights were on in the small garden, and it was not as dark as before. The two of them walked around for a while, and walked around the whole small garden. Noticing that there were a lot of mosquitoes, Liu Tangxi prepared to go back to the house.

"Let's go, these mosquitoes are too annoying."

Wei Hanzhou did not say any objection and prepared to follow Liu Tangxi back.

However, just as Liu Tangxi turned around, he suddenly heard a noisy sound next door.

"If you dare to sleep in her room today, I will go to James's house to make trouble tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Tangxi suddenly became alert, and immediately ignored the mosquito.

Wei Hanzhou saw that Liu Tangxi didn't follow him, so he looked over and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Liu Tangxi stretched out his index finger and put it on his mouth. "Pfft!"

As he said this, he pulled Wei Hanzhou to stand

Stayed where you are.

"You shrew, don't you think it's embarrassing enough?" The voice sounded familiar.

"Shame on you? Ever since you married her, I've been completely disgraced by you!"

Thinking about who lived next door to him, Liu Tangxi guessed the identities of these two people.

It should be Huang Fucheng and his wife, the original wife who came from a merchant family.

Liu Tangxi glanced at Wei Hanzhou and asked with his lips.

Wei Hanzhou nodded helplessly and raised his hand to continue fanning the mosquitoes flying towards Liu Tangxi.

"You! You're unreasonable!"

"I am unreasonable? Why didn't you say so when you were studying with my family's help? I never saw you despise me when you ate and drank at my house. How come you start to despise me now that you have passed the imperial examination and been appointed to an official position? I tell you, you are dreaming! Even if I die, I will be buried in your ancestral tomb. Since she is a daughter of an official family, she can only be younger! The son she gives birth to will be inferior to my son!"

"Keep your voice down. It's embarrassing if someone hears you."

"Bah! If I keep my voice down, will others not know what you are doing?"

Then, I heard a lot of noise.

Wei Hanzhou looked at the increasing number of mosquitoes, frowned, and said, "Let's go, there are too many mosquitoes in the yard, let's go back to the house."

Liu Tangxi smiled and went back with him.

After returning to the house, Liu Tangxi couldn't help asking, "Did you think that the lady was wrong just now?"

Wei Hanzhou said, “Yeah.”

Hearing this affirmative answer, Liu Tangxi's expression changed immediately. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Wei Hanzhou add another sentence.

"It's disturbing the people."

Wei Hanzhou looked up at Liu Tangxi and said, "But fundamentally, it's not her fault."

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi laughed and said, "That's right, it was the Huang Fucheng who wanted to climb up the dragon and attach himself to the phoenix, and when he gained power, he wanted to divorce his original wife."

Although Wei Hanzhou did not answer, he nodded in response.

Liu Tangxi thought about it carefully.

Now, Huang Fucheng works in the Zhanshi Mansion and is the prince's man. According to the book, Wei Hanzhou is also the prince's man. Therefore, these two people should know each other in the book. They live close to each other, so their relationship must be very special.

"Let me tell you, you can tell at first glance that Prime Minister Huang is not a good person. You should try to avoid contact with people like him and don't be led astray by him." Liu Tangxi said hurriedly.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and didn't answer.

Although Huang Fucheng's private training may have problems, he does have real credentials and knowledge, and is not completely useless. Moreover, good and bad are just different standpoints of the two parties.

"Did you hear that?" Liu Tangxi said again.

However, he did not share the same stance as Huang Fucheng, and did not agree with some of his practices.

"I'll remember this." said Wei Hanzhou.

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi nodded with satisfaction.

Wei Hanzhou still couldn't forget reading. It seemed that he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't read for a day.

While Liu Tangxi went to organize her things, Wei Hanzhou went to the study again.

Seeing this, Liu Tangxi curled her lips, but then she turned around and said to Madam Cheng, "Go and ask someone to put some ice cubes in the study."

"Yes, ma'am."

However,

Soon, Wei Hanzhou came back.

Liu Tangxi asked in surprise, "Why did you come back so soon?"

Wei Hanzhou originally wanted to get a book, but he didn't expect his wife to be so thoughtful and even prepare ice cubes for him.

"It's a waste of ice." Wei Hanzhou made an excuse.

Liu Tangxi raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Next, Wei Hanzhou sat on the couch and read a book, while Liu Tangxi went to pack up.

After packing up his things, Liu Tangxi went to take a bath, feeling sticky.

After cleaning up all day, Liu Tangxi was already tired. He went to bed without waiting for Wei Hanzhou.

Then, Wei Hanzhou also went to take a bath.

A quarter of an hour later, Wei Hanzhou came out and extinguished all the oil lamps in the house.

Although Liu Tangxi was tired, he felt too hot and couldn't sleep. Besides, the capital was not as quiet and cool as the manor.

The moment Wei Hanzhou lay on the bed, Liu Tangxi finally couldn't help but start chatting with him.

"It's too hot. I can't sleep. Can we talk?"

"good."

Thinking of Wei Hanzhou's attempt to curry favor with Yin that day, Liu Tangxi asked, "Did anything interesting happen in the court?"

Wei Hanzhou said without thinking, "No."

The affairs of the court are very serious, especially the recent situation is unclear, and each party has taken sides, which is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

Liu Tangxi immediately felt unhappy and said, "Really?"

"No." Wei Hanzhou still did not change his answer.

"Is it true that you didn't tell me or you don't want to tell me? Why did you tell your mother so much that day, but I don't know what to say to me?" Liu Tangxi said dissatisfiedly.

Wei Hanzhou finally understood what his wife meant.

This time he didn't rush to answer. He thought about it carefully and said, "Indeed, no."

"Hmph!" Liu Tangxi was unhappy.

Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips and said, "It's true. Although a lot of things happened in the court, they are not very interesting. My lady probably doesn't like to hear them."

He was not an interesting person, and he did not find anything funny about the things that happened in the court. He only knew about those three things because his colleagues told him that people outside were talking about them, so he knew that everyone liked to hear about them.

He had originally told her this, but now he had no food left.

Liu Tangxi still didn't believe it and said, "I don't believe it, I just want to hear it, go ahead."

"Okay." Wei Hanzhou replied.

Then, Wei Hanzhou began to speak.

For example, the prince recently proposed to rectify the Ministry of Personnel and put forward several regulations.

The Minister of Personnel was naturally dissatisfied, so he explained his situation to the emperor and put forward rebuttal opinions.

Liu Tangxi was dizzy after hearing the methods of rectifying the Ministry of Personnel and the reasons stated by the Minister of Personnel. He could not understand any of the terms.

"Change it, this one is boring." Liu Tangxi said, "For example, marriage."

Wei Hanzhou thought about it and talked about what the Ministry of Rites had recently raised in the court.

"The Second Prince works in the Ministry of Rites. The prince of the Princess's mansion is getting married. The Princess has someone design a wedding dress for her son that doesn't conform to ancestral rules. The Ministry of Rites and the Second Prince refute it by citing classics..."

The beads, colors, and patterns made Liu Tangxi drowsy.

As Wei Hanzhou himself said, it was really boring.

She wanted to ask Wei Hanzhou to change another one, but she was so sleepy that she fell asleep before she could say anything.

Wei Hanzhou listened to the breathing sound coming from his ears and looked at Liu Tangxi deeply, his eyes full of helplessness.

He said nothing more, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

However, before he fell asleep, someone suddenly hit him in the chest.

In an instant, Wei Hanzhou came to his senses and looked at the arm lying across his chest.

Looking to the side, Liu Tangxi seemed to be a little hot and was pulling at his collar.

Looking at that large area of ​​fair skin, Wei Hanzhou's Adam's apple moved slightly. He took Liu Tangxi's arm, took the fan beside him, and started fanning her.

Liu Tangxi slept very well that night. When she heard Wei Hanzhou's movements in the morning, she woke up immediately.

Seeing that it seemed to be raining outside, Liu Tangxi felt even better.

Seeing that Wei Hanzhou looked tired, Liu Tangxi lowered her head and rubbed his lips, then said, "Sleep a little longer, I'll go make you dinner."

"Yeah." In an instant, Wei Hanzhou felt that he was not so tired.

Wei Hanzhou took a nap and then got up. When he finished washing up, Liu Tangxi had already prepared breakfast.

Wontons made by Liutangxi.

The meat filling was bought yesterday, but it was chilled and is still fresh.

Wei Hanzhou ate a large bowl, and Liu Tangxi ate a small bowl with him.

When Wei Hanzhou was about to leave, Liu Tangxi prepared an umbrella for him and sent him to the door.

By this time, a carriage had been parked at the door.

This carriage was brought back by Liu Tangxi yesterday.

"Come on, this carriage is specially prepared for you by your mother. It will let you ride in it until you learn to ride a horse."

Wei Hanzhou was not a pretentious person. He took the umbrella from Liu Tangxi and got on the carriage.

Huang Fucheng originally felt proud that he had a horse that Wei Hanzhou did not have. But now, looking at Wei Hanzhou's luxurious carriage, he suddenly felt less pleased with the horse beside him.

Liu Tangxi turned around and saw Huang Fucheng standing next to her. She curled her lips, ignored him, and went into the mansion.

After seeing Wei Hanzhou off, Liu Tangxi went back to take a nap.

The drizzle was still falling, and after an hour she went into the shop.

Now she has moved the cloth shop to the high-end residential area on Xunfang Road, and the low-priced wine shop to Yunxia Street.

The shop at the intersection of Fugui Street, a north-south street intersecting with Xunfang Road, was where she sold fruits.

This shop is currently being renovated according to Liu Tangxi's idea.

After looking at a few shops and checking the account books, the time was almost up.

Liu Tangxi went to buy a lot of ingredients personally and went back home.

As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, she saw the concubine's daughter from the Dali Temple's family, whom she had met once that day, standing at the door waiting for her.

Judging from the look of it, I don’t know how long I’ve been waiting.

Liu Tangxi is indeed a good-tempered person, but that doesn't mean she doesn't hold grudges.

Last time, the two of them didn't even know each other, but this person mocked her in person and used some unfounded things to say about her. She really couldn't get enough of this person.

What a good impression.

So, Liu Tangxi acted like she did to Huang Fucheng, pretending not to see her and walked towards the door.

Liu Tangxi pretended not to see her, but she came over and started talking to him.

"Miss Liu, you're back?" Li asked with a smile.

Liu Tangxi looked left and right, with a puzzled look on his face, and asked, "Madam, who are you calling?"

Li smiled and said, "I'm calling you."

Liu Tangxi suddenly realized and said, "So you are calling me. Maybe Madam has made a mistake. I am already married and not a girl anymore."

Li looked embarrassed and quickly changed her words to "Mrs. Wei."

"Yeah." Liu Tangxi nodded.

Seeing this, Li continued, "I have met Madam Wei a few times before, but I never thought that we would become neighbors now. What a coincidence."

Liu Tangxi said, "I'm sorry, I had a head injury and lost my memory. I don't remember these past events. I only remember that the lady seemed to say a few words to me when she was standing in the carriage that day. I don't know what Madam Li meant that day?"

Liu Tangxi thought, she really didn't remember. With the original owner's arrogant personality, she probably wouldn't even look at the legitimate daughter of the Dali Temple Shaoqing family, let alone a concubine's daughter. She only remembered what happened that day when she first came to the capital.

The smile on Li's face froze for a moment.

Liu Tangxi really didn't want to continue talking to this person. She glanced at the dishes in Nanny Cheng's hand and said, "I'm so sorry, it's almost noon, and I have to cook for my husband, so I won't invite Madam in."

After saying this, he bowed towards Li and turned to go into the mansion.

"Oh——" Li came to her senses and wanted to call Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi, however, seemed not to have heard anything and went into the mansion.

After the door was closed, the maid beside Li asked, "Madam, are we still sending this gift?"

Li immediately changed her expression and said, "What are you sending? Can't you see that everyone has gone in?"

After saying this to the maid, Li cursed in a low voice towards the closed door, "Humph, do you really think you are some kind of princess? You just married a lowly official of the sixth rank. If it weren't for the powerful family of your parents, do you really think I would be willing to talk to you?"

After saying this, Li turned around angrily and went back to the Huang Mansion.

After Liu Tangxi entered, he went straight to the kitchen.

It's still raining outside. It's quite cool today, so it's not so hot when cooking.

However, when she was on the farm, Yin felt sorry for her and put a lot of ice cubes in the kitchen whenever she cooked.

Liu Tangxi knew more or less how much Wei Hanzhou ate, so she made a little more but not too much to avoid wasting it.

Liu Tangxi cooked bean sprouts and pork, fish-flavored eggplant, and a cold salad of cucumber shreds. In addition, she cooked braised prawns and steamed pork with rice flour.

Although there are many varieties, the portion is only half of the usual amount. With Wei Hanzhou's appetite, he can almost finish it.

Since he was now in the capital and close to home, Liu Tangxi also made some winter melon soup.

The staple food is two steamed buns and a basket of steamed dumplings.

Finally, Liu Tangxi thoughtfully put in a few pieces of watermelon.

After doing all this, Liu Tangxi asked Dongsheng to send Wei Hanzhou to the Hanlin Academy.

In fact, Wei Hanzhou has a break at noon. He can go home to eat or

Eat in the Hanlin Academy.

Wei Hanzhou is a person who strives to use every moment to learn and work, so he simply solves the lunch problem in the Hanlin Academy.

Now that Liu Tangxi brought him meals every day, he didn't have to go out to eat anymore.

Today, Wei Hanzhou was in a good mood when he opened the lunch box and saw that the portion was smaller than usual but the variety was richer.

However, just as he brought out the food and was about to eat, he saw a man walking towards him.

"What a nice smell! What's that smell?" asked the second prince.

Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips and had a bad feeling in his heart.

Seeing that the fragrance came from the food box next to Wei Hanzhou, the second prince walked over quickly, and after getting Wei Hanzhou's permission, he picked up the steamed dumplings and started eating.

Then, another familiar person appeared in his sight.

A quarter of an hour later, the two layers of food boxes were cleared out by the three people.

"It tastes really good, even better than the food in the palace's kitchen. Where did Lord Wei buy it from?" asked the second prince.

Xie Congli smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it must have been done by Madam Wei."

The second prince's smile froze on his face, and he asked uncertainly, "Liu...Liu Tangxi?"

Xie Congli glanced at Wei Hanzhou and nodded.

The second prince looked at the empty food box with an expression as if he had seen a ghost. He stood up and ran away.

Xie Congli was very surprised and asked, "Hey, what happened to the Second Prince?"

Wei Hanzhou said, "I don't know."

Xie Congli knew the current situation and left after simply saying a few words to Wei Hanzhou.

Wei Hanzhou looked at the food box in front of him and felt depressed.

In the afternoon, Wei Hanzhou was called to the palace by Emperor You to copy some pawns.

At this moment, the prince was also in the palace.

"I heard that Prince Jian came to see you again today?" Emperor You asked.

The prince's face was full of pride and he glanced at Wei Hanzhou.

Originally, he had no intention of dealing with Wei Hanzhou, but unfortunately, Wei Hanzhou married the eldest daughter of Marquis Huai'en, who was from the Third Prince's faction, so don't blame him for being rude.

Wei Hanzhou's eyes moved slightly and he glanced at the expression of the prince beside him.

again.

It seems that the prince has classified him as the third prince. He is often called by the emperor to record, which must have bothered the prince.

“No.”

"oh?"

"I have met the Crown Prince twice. Once, the Crown Prince came to the Hanlin Academy to ask Scholar Su about literature and history. Scholar Su was busy at the time, so he handed the matter to me. The second time was today. I don't know who the Second Prince came here to see. When he passed by, he smelled the fragrance of my food and came in to eat a few bites. The Crown Prince came to talk to the Second Prince about the ceremony of the eldest princess's son's wedding."

Emperor You nodded slightly.

However, the prince said, "Tsk, would my second brother eat your food? Don't talk nonsense. My second brother eats the food prepared by Yu Chef every day in the palace, how could he eat your food? Wei Xiuzhuan, if you want to find an excuse, you should find a more reliable one. You are deceiving the emperor by doing this."

Emperor You frowned and looked at Wei Hanzhou.

"I dare not deceive the emperor and the prince. You can call the second prince over and ask him."

Emperor You and the Crown Prince knew very well what kind of character the Second Prince had.

Can tell lies.

The prince proudly asked someone to call the second prince.

However, to the Crown Prince's disappointment, the Second Prince admitted it hesitantly.

"I...I...I was so hungry."

"You are just a foodie!" the prince shouted angrily.

"I heard that the Second Prince has been busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Rites recently. He must be exhausted, that's why he is like this." Wei Hanzhou excused the Second Prince.

Emperor You was unhappy. He glared at the crown prince and said unhappily, "What did you say about your brother? You just said bad things about your third brother in front of me, and now you are talking about your second brother. Look at yourself. Forget being a crown prince. Do you act like a brother? Go back and reflect on yourself!"

Then, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince went out together.

However, a quarter of an hour later, a eunuch came to report that the prince had severely reprimanded the second prince on the way and severely beat Huang Fucheng of the Zhanshi Mansion when he returned.

Emperor You was so angry.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at the eunuch. If he guessed correctly, the eunuch seemed to be the Third Prince's man. When the Third Prince came to see him that day, he saw from a distance that the two of them had a quiet conversation.

Wei Hanzhou looked at his nose and his heart without saying a word.

In the evening, Wei Hanzhou came back a little late. After coming back, he ate a lot, much more than usual.

Liu Tangxi asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Are you tired today? Or did you not have enough lunch?"

Wei Hanzhou thought that this was because the lunch was so delicious.

"Well, I was busy today. I went to the palace in the afternoon."

"Oh, then you should eat more." Liu Tangxi picked up some food for him.

After dinner, perhaps thinking about what happened yesterday, Wei Hanzhou recounted a few events of the morning while listening to the chirping of cicadas outside the house.

At first, Liu Tangxi didn't understand why he talked about these boring things.

Gradually, she understood.

Wei Hanzhou, is this because of what happened yesterday?

Thinking of this, Liu Tangxi asked with a smile, "Why did my husband bring up these things?"

Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi and thought, isn't this what you want to hear?

"But because I mentioned it yesterday?"

Wei Hanzhou nodded.

"I thought you wouldn't like to hear it, so I didn't mention it to you. Now that you want to hear it, I will tell you every day."

Liu Tangxi didn't really want to listen, but she was quite happy that Wei Hanzhou stopped being silent.

Moreover, although she didn't understand what was going on in the court, she had some impression of what was in the book, and maybe she could remind Wei Hanzhou of a few things.

Moreover, after listening to it many times, she will naturally understand it.

"OK."

Seeing that she was interested, Wei Hanzhou continued talking.

However, Wei Hanzhou didn't really want to talk, because the more he talked, the less she talked.

He would rather hear her speak.

After talking dryly for about a quarter of an hour, Wei Hanzhou changed the subject, "I wonder what the lady did today?"

When Liu Tangxi heard this, she immediately became happy and told Wei Hanzhou what happened today, especially the matter of her going to clean up the shop. Of course, she concealed the fact that she saw Li at the door.

She didn't take this matter to heart at all.

My wife is very smart."

Liu Tangxi was even happier when he heard Wei Hanzhou's praise, and said proudly, "Of course, I have always been so smart."

After talking for a while, Liu Tangxi went to take a bath, and Wei Hanzhou picked up a book and started reading.

Around 3 p.m., the two turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.

Wei Hanzhou seemed to have come to his senses tonight and knew how to talk to her more. Liu Tangxi was quite happy about this.

Wei Hanzhou sensed her relief and happiness, and realized that she had not fallen asleep, so he spoke.

"Madam, have you known the Second Prince before?"

Liu Tangxi originally wanted to say that she didn't know him, but she asked Nanny Cheng today, so she knew a little bit.

"Yes. I hadn't thought of him at first, but I learned something from the old lady Cheng in the mansion. I had a fight with the Second Prince when I was young, and since then, the Second Prince has avoided me whenever he saw me."

Wei Hanzhou never expected this answer.

He really couldn't imagine how a lady who was always gentle could fight with others.

However, this was not the only thing he couldn't figure out.

He had heard many rumors about his wife's past in the capital, but none of them seemed like something his wife would do.

Even if a person loses their memory, they may not change that much.

This matter is full of weirdness.

Moreover, the lady did not seem to have such a special physique before she left Beijing. If she had, it would have been impossible for her not to be exposed given her personality before she lost her memory.

Why is this happening?

While he was thinking, he heard Liu Tangxi continue to say, "The Second Prince is not important, don't pay attention to him. I think it's better for my husband to focus on the Crown Prince and the Third Prince."

She didn't remember mentioning this little unknown second prince in the book.

"Why?" Wei Hanzhou suddenly turned around and asked.

Looking at Wei Hanzhou's actions, Liu Tangxi thought of the quarrel they had that day over the matter of the Third Prince, and brought it up again with some regret.

However, because Wei Hanzhou was on the wrong side, she felt it necessary to remind him.

"Everyone knows that the second prince has no real power. I guess either the crown prince or the third prince will ascend the throne," said Liu Tangxi.

"Um."

Seeing Wei Hanzhou agree, Liu Tangxi continued, "Moreover, the noble families outside all say that the prince has a bad temper and the emperor hates him, so he will be deposed sooner or later. Therefore, it is only a matter of time before the prince is deposed."

Wei Hanzhou thought he understood Liu Tangxi's personality, and given her personality, it would be difficult for her to say such affirmative words on such a big matter.

It was as if she knew the ending in advance.

"So, my lady, do you think the Third Prince is most likely to be the final winner?"

Liu Tangxi was about to agree, but when he saw Wei Hanzhou's meaningful eyes, he was suddenly speechless.

Thinking about the Prince Jian whom she had accidentally saved, Liu Tangxi stammered, "Or, that, Prince Jian is also very likely?"

"My lady, what you said is truly outrageous." Wei Hanzhou said.

Hearing Wei Hanzhou's words, Liu Tangxi's eyes widened instantly, and he said unhappily, "I am a traitor? Didn't you just agree with me? You are also a traitor."

Wei Hanzhou glanced at her and said, "Well, I am the same as my wife."

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi smiled triumphantly.

He approached Wei Hanzhou and said softly, "Wei Hanzhou, you finally admit that you are a traitor? Didn't you say it in a very high-sounding way before, saying that you are loyal to the emperor? Now it seems that it may not be the case."

No matter how pretentious he was before, his true colors are finally revealed.

When Liu Tangxi said this, he was very close to Wei Hanzhou, and his breath sprayed into Wei Hanzhou's ears, making him feel itchy.

Wei Hanzhou's Adam's apple moved slightly and he looked into Liu Tangxi's eyes.

Looking at the pride in her eyes, Wei Hanzhou felt as if they were twinkling stars in the sky.

Wei Hanzhou suddenly felt itchy and reached out to touch Liu Tangxi's face. The touch felt a little better than before.

"Madam, do you know what would happen if others heard these words?" Wei Hanzhou asked in a hoarse voice.

Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou with eyes that suddenly became nervous, but also filled with an inexplicable excitement.

"Then... let's both die together~"

One of them is a ruthless male supporting role in the book, and the other is a vicious female supporting role, and both of them have miserable endings.

Somehow, these words touched some nerve in Wei Hanzhou.

Wei Hanzhou turned over, looked closely into Liu Tangxi's eyes, and said, "But I don't want you to end up like this. I want you to live happily forever."

Wei Hanzhou was clearly saying sweet words, so Liu Tangxi should be happy.

But for some reason, her eyes suddenly became moist and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

She stretched out her arms, hugged Wei Hanzhou and started crying.

The author has something to say about the big fat chapter. The manuscripts in stock are basically used up. Tomorrow's chapter will be updated at 9 pm as usual.

If there are some cute ones who didn't catch up to send out red envelopes, we will draw 100 more red envelopes for comments in this chapter~
