But when he received Shen Wangshu's protection and clear love, he felt immense joy. Even the glory of an arranged marriage couldn't compare to her affirmation.
He could only see the woman he loved; he couldn't see anything else.
.
At that moment, he felt that he would be willing to die for her.
For the first time, he didn't care that he was hurting her, but he was unwilling to let go.
"Happy now?" Just then, a sly smile appeared on her beautiful cherry lips, which had been uttering words of affection for her.
Looking at his lover, who was beaming with joy and was extremely happy, Fang Xuan struggled to utter a single word.
"Um."
"Do you know how good I've been to you?" His Highness Prince Luan asked, blinking. "Aren't you especially touched?"
Fang Xuan felt he knew what she was going to say, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips, his mood softening even more. "Mm."
"Since that's the case, you must love me even more from now on, understand?"
I love you even more.
"My dearest king." Shen Wangshu felt deeply that this was the world where he had given away the most money.
If it were any other Ah Xuan, he wouldn't even need to make a request; they would have already pounced on him. Thinking of his own hardships in this world, His Highness the Luan King sighed deeply and said, "What a waste."
Her annoyed little face was also very cute, and Fang Xuan's heart melted. He was very shy, and he knew that it was a bit shameless for a man to kiss a woman in broad daylight, but he felt that he could not express his love. He slowly walked to his lover, who was hanging her head with a hint of resentment, bent down his tall body, turned his head, and pressed his lips to his lover's soft and warm lips.
His audacity caused Shen Wangshu to suddenly open her charming eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe her eyes as she looked at the heroic face so close to her.
She...she thought a kiss on the cheek was the ultimate gesture.
General Fang is an exceptionally shy person.
Therefore, even when General Fang left her lips, His Highness Prince Luan could hardly remember.
Shen Wangshu took a deep breath and touched her flushed face.
She was even shy from the kiss. It was such a simple kiss, just a touch of lips, but even though it was so simple, she felt her heart tremble.
She lowered her eyes, let out a satisfied sigh, and snuggled into Fang Xuan's arms. The tall man naturally embraced her tightly. The court officials coming and going, seeing this scene, all had mixed feelings, but Shen Wangshu couldn't care less.
She didn't know how long she had embraced Fang Xuan before returning to her palace with him, a satisfied smile on her face. Fang Xuan was still unable to enter due to his reputation, but Shen Wangshu reluctantly tiptoed to touch his lips again, softly saying, "I will marry you as soon as possible."
She paused, then said confidently, "Yes, I will give you a proper status!"
Looking at her petite and dependent appearance, and then at the exceptionally dashing General Fang, the maids of the Prince Luan's mansion silently covered their faces.
That's a rather weak statement.
Fang Xuan felt this was the best promise he could make to himself, and nodded, "Mm."
.
No matter how reluctant he was to part with Shen Wangshu, he couldn't enter someone else's palace before the wedding, so he had to leave silently. However, Shen Wangshu couldn't stop thinking about him. On the second day after the marriage was arranged, she ordered someone to personally deliver countless palace treasures and soups cooked by her own cook to Fang Xuan's camp on the outskirts of the capital.
She not only became exceptionally familiar with the female generals in the camp outside Beijing, but also subtly eliminated several rivals in love, thus living a particularly exciting life. Her affection for Fang Xuan was evident in every detail, from the smallest stitch to the smallest food, and her tireless efforts to travel from Beijing to the outskirts every day to endure hardship, which drew attention from many.
She never entrusted Fang Xuan with these favors through the maids in the palace; she delivered them herself.
Her gentleness, thoughtfulness, and deep affection made these female generals feel even closer to her.
Those who once thought she was nothing more than a spoiled and useless woman have finally discovered that she is actually a good person.
Only someone who truly cares about their husband would be willing to do anything for him, right?
"We were wrong to offend Your Highness in the past, please don't hold it against us!" As military officers, these women were all straightforward and outspoken, which made them even more affectionate towards Shen Wangshu.
They sat with Shen Wangshu, looked at the beautiful, thin-smiling Princess Luan, and showed some agreement. They patted her on the shoulder and laughed, "The rumors are really unbelievable! In fact, Princess Luan is a good person, a very good person!" This slap almost made Princess Luan roll off her seat.
Fang Xuan extended his strong arm and once again came to the rescue.
"It's all as it should be." Shen Wangshu found herself quite fond of these straightforward female generals.
She hugged Fang Xuan's arm, looked up at his face and smiled tenderly.
Fang Xuan has become much bolder lately, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.
The women's laughter grew even louder.
Seeing Shen Wangshu's deep affection for Fang Xuan, they truly accepted the marriage and the Prince Luan as a person.
With the King of Luan around, they could rest assured that their commander, whose fate had been so full of hardship, could finally be happy.
In the outskirts of the capital, springtime romances were in full bloom, along with growing trust and acceptance. However, in the Second Princess's palace, dark clouds loomed.
The marriage to the eldest son of the Marquis of Jingbei should have been a joyous occasion, something to celebrate. However, the Second Princess was far from happy; she felt so depressed she wanted to tear her hair out.
The problem, of course, lies with the Third Princess.
Both were bestowed marriages, but the Second Princess felt she had done enough. On the day of the bestowal, she went to the Jingbei Marquis's residence and became a very happy daughter-in-law. Every few days, she would send the young master of the Marquis's residence some pearls and jade jewelry, and send people to convey her true feelings and her condolences. She did everything very appropriately.
But there was also that bastard Third Princess, who went to the camp outside the capital every day, and even personally brought food and drinks to Fang Xuan, making the Second Princess's attentiveness seem like a mere eggplant field.
What was originally her concern for the young master of the Marquis of Jingbei turned into indifference because the Third Princess cared more about Fang Xuan.
Being compared to a control group or something...
This is so frustrating!
