Princess Anyang knew he had misunderstood, but they were just a couple in name only, so she didn't elaborate. She simply said, "Zhang Yi came into the mansion early, so it's not an exaggeration to say he's grown up with them. He's always been there for them, so it's normal for Chu Nian and Chu Yuan to have a close relationship with him."
I'm not going to take care of this matter.
Princess Anyang let the nanny comb her hair and stopped talking.
When Xu Boyan saw her like this, his restless heart suddenly calmed down.
After the nanny finished combing Princess Anyang's hair, Xu Boyan signaled everyone to leave and he stepped forward to tie her hair.
Those hands that had been holding knives for years were now surprisingly adept at doing such things.
Princess Anyang couldn't help but think that he must have learned such excellent hair-combing skills from his cousin.
He must have combed his cousin's hair often in the past.
Anyang lowered her eyes and said to him, "These things will be handled by our subordinates. There is really no need for General Xu to do it personally."
"Anyang, we are already husband and wife. You should call me Boyan." Xu Boyan did not take this seriously. He simply corrected him lightly, "Anyang, I said those things just now not because Zhang Yi had any objections. I was just worried that I would not get along well with Chu Nian and Chu Yuan."
Princess Anyang was puzzled and asked, "Why do you want to get along with them?"
Xu Boyan said: "We are husband and wife, and they are also my children."
"That's not necessary," Princess Anyang said. "Our marriage was originally arranged by an imperial order. You don't have to be like this. It's okay if you don't want to come to the Princess's Mansion on a regular basis. As long as you can appear presentable on the outside, that's all."
Anyang didn't understand why Xu Boyan had so many concerns. They were just a couple in name only, and they were pretty much the same on the surface.
Xu Boyan obviously didn't think so. Looking at her indifferent expression, his temperament became even more gloomy.
He put her in the lily bun that she loved so much, leaned over to her and said, "Anyang, does it look good?"
Anyang nodded indifferently. She just wanted Xu Boyan to stay away from her. He was so close to her that she felt uncomfortable.
But the more she thought about it, the less Xu Boyan moved.
He maintained this position, his breath spraying on her neck, and she felt her neck was stiff.
"I also think that the bun I have done is very beautiful. From now on, I will be the one to tie your hair, okay?" Xu Boyan said devoutly, looking at Princess Anyang in the bronze mirror.
Princess Anyang said: "No..."
"Then it's settled." Xu Boyan said again.
He added, "Anyang, I know you've always remembered Xu Ke, and I've never asked you to forget Xu Ke. I just hope you can squeeze out a little space for me in your heart. Is that not okay?"
Princess Anyang thought to herself that she had never been thinking about her husband, but Xu Boyan, since he was always thinking about her cousin, why did he act like this?
She suddenly felt extremely annoyed with Xu Boyan. It turned out that the person she liked when she was young was such a fickle person.
She was feeling irritated and wanted to argue with him, but when she turned around and met his affectionate peach blossom eyes, she was suddenly stuck for a moment.
"Anyang, I'll take it as your agreement. Please introduce me to Chu Nian and Chu Yuan later, okay?"
Under his gaze, Anyang nodded as if possessed by a ghost. Then Xu Boyan touched her head and said, "You are so good."
Princess Anyang: "..."
What did she just do?
She looked very cute when she was in a daze. Xu Boyan looked at her and couldn't help but touch her head again.
She said in frustration, "Don't touch my head!"
"Okay." He smiled indulgently.
At this time, Zhang Yi suddenly walked in with red eyes, and someone suddenly told him that Zhang Yi wanted to see him.
Princess Anyang let someone in.
As soon as Zhang Yi came in, he knelt in front of Xu Boyan. His eyes were red and he looked very pitiful.
Xu Boyan had no good feelings towards Zhang Yi at all.
Xu Boyan has always had the habit of doing morning exercises. He woke up especially early this morning and happened to meet Zhang Yi.
When he saw Zhang Yi's appearance, he was stunned for a moment. He had of course seen Xu Ke before. It couldn't be said that Zhang Yi and Xu Ke were 50% similar, but they were at least 30% similar.
Because he was a little surprised, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Yi for a long time.
But Zhang Yi knelt down in front of him crying and begged him not to drive him away.
When the people in the princess's mansion saw this, they thought he was bullying him.
Xu Chunian and Xu Chuyuan even blocked Zhang Yi behind them. The two children shouted at him that this was their home and asked him to leave.
Xu Boyan had never seen a man who could cry so much before. It was also the first time he knew that a man's tears could be so powerful.
He naturally had no good feelings towards such people. Seeing Zhang Yi in such a state, he subconsciously frowned, "What are you going to do now?"
Zhang Yi said, "It was my fault just now. I beg you, General, not to blame Chu Nian and Chu Yuan."
"Chu Nian and Chu Yuan are still children. They don't know how to read people's faces. If they offend the general, it's all the fault of the villains."
"General, you can beat me or scold me if you want. I'll let you do whatever you want with me."
Xu Boyan stared at Zhang Yi with a cold gaze. "Did I blame Chu Nian and Chu Yuan? Did I say I was going to beat you or scold you? You've already accused me of so many crimes."
"Zhang Yi, recognize your own identity."
Zhang Yi shuddered violently, then quickly hid behind Princess Anyang, "Princess, save me, I'm just scared..."
Princess Anyang didn't know what had happened before, but seeing how pitiful Zhang Yi was, and that he was a member of the princess's mansion, and for Chu Nian and Chu Yuan, she naturally had to side with Zhang Yi.
She raised her eyes to look at Xu Boyan. There was a hint of anger on Xu Boyan's usually handsome face. She said noncommittally, "He's just a little sensitive. He's afraid that you'll hurt Chu Nian and Chu Yuan. Why do you have to do this?"
Xu Boyan was distracted for a moment, then he looked away and said, "I won't do that again."
His inquiring gaze fell on Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi was just Anyang's male favorite, so before this, he didn't take Zhang Yi seriously.
What he feared more was naturally Xu Ke. How could a living person compete with a dead person?
But he never thought that he couldn't even compete with a living person.
Why is this happening? Didn't Anyang see that Zhang Yi used such inferior means?
