After that, he paid special attention and found that Nan Jinchu seemed to never drink alcohol, not even on any occasion.
On his wedding day, he actually drank tea that the servants had secretly switched.
So when he saw Nan Jinchu, who was used to being nonchalant and omnipotent, he was stunned for a moment when he suddenly saw him rushing to ask for a marriage decree.
The emperor was normally completely indifferent to other people's family affairs, but the versions circulating outside about Wan Ge and Jiang Shuyan were too good, and they were both from two families he cared about, so he remembered them.
Although the two families had not actually arranged a marriage, everyone thought they were engaged. Under these circumstances, it was simply too surreal that her cousin wanted to marry her.
The emperor knew it was immoral to break up other people's marriages, but Nan Jinchu had never asked for anything. His cousin's family had helped him so much, and it was rare for him to ask for a favor. Of course, the emperor would agree to this, and so the marriage decree came about.
Nan Jinchu's position is really too high. Even though everyone thinks he stole her away, no one dares to say anything.
…
"How are things going between you and your cousin-in-law?" The emperor couldn't resist asking a question.
Nan Jinchu answered naturally, "It's fine."
It was indeed quite nice. He had been in a good mood until he entered the palace and met that man.
He's so angry! What bad luck!
The emperor opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, so he changed the subject and returned to the main business.
…
As evening approached, while Wan Ge was taking a bath, she suddenly heard a noise.
Nan Jinchu appeared in front of her just like that, and Wan Ge was stunned for a moment.
Because Wan Ge wasn't used to being served a bath, she was alone, which saved Nan Jin Chu the trouble of asking others to leave.
Nan Jinchu moved directly close to her, and Wan Ge didn't know why she felt a little nervous.
The next second, the other person hugged him and kissed him again, and they soaked in the bath together.
Wan Ge could sense that the other person was still angry, but she didn't know what had happened in the palace or why the other person was angry.
"Husband, have you encountered any misfortunes?" Wan Ge asked with some concern.
Nan Jinchu did not answer, but continued to make intimate gestures towards her while making her call him "husband".
…
Wan Ge was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open as she leaned against him. Her voice was weary and hoarse: "My husband is unhappy... is it because of me?"
At first, Wan Ge did think that the other person had encountered some bad luck, but she knew too well how jealous the other person was, and she could feel that the other person was more likely to be jealous.
Nan Jinchu still didn't answer her question, but it was already very clear. However, Wan Ge didn't know what she had done wrong to make the other person unhappy.
But she was too tired to think or comfort the other person.
…
Nan Jinchu didn't want to hurt her. He knew that Jiang Shuyan was trying to sow discord between them, so he couldn't fall for her trick.
But... so what if Jiang Shuyan doesn't really love Wan Ge? Wan Ge really does like him!
Thinking of this, Nan Jinchu felt as if tens of thousands of ants were gnawing at her heart.
Only by holding someone tightly in your arms and making them feel like part of your body can you feel safe.
So this is what my father meant by liking someone: you get them, but you're also afraid of losing them. To be precise, because you've gained them, you're even more unable to accept losing them.
