Chapter 276 This piece of trash dares to order me around!
Xie Qingran blushed slightly, then rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "Stop talking nonsense, I'm asking you, what exactly happened?"
"It's nothing, I just took the medicine beforehand, that's why it's like this. But don't worry, it won't affect the future."
"I said I would only ever have you in this life, and I will only ever have you."
"Qingran, I will absolutely not allow anyone to bully you, not even the emperor!"
Xiao Jue held Xie Qingran's hand, looked at her very seriously, and gently tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"But... if this gets out, it will be a huge humiliation for you. Don't you really care?" Xie Qingran was shocked. She couldn't believe that Xiao Jue would do such a thing for her, even disregarding his own reputation.
Before and after, no one had ever treated Xie Qingran like this, no one had ever cared about her like this.
"This is nothing special, my reputation wasn't exactly great to begin with anyway."
"Besides, it's just one more rule now, I don't care."
"Qingran, this world isn't that great, and I don't like it that much, but you're different. You're very important."
Xiao Jue gently embraced Xie Qingran's head, allowing her to lean against him.
Xie Qingran took Xiao Jue's hand and intertwined their fingers: "Xiao Jue, thank you."
"We're husband and wife, this is what I should do."
"Qingran, you are in my heart, so I am happy to have you."
Xiao Jue's voice remained gentle and soft.
Even after hearing these words with her own ears, Xie Qingran sometimes felt a little dazed, finding it hard to believe that Xiao Jue would say such sweet things.
She smiled softly, leaning against Xiao Jue's chest, feeling a sense of security she had never felt before.
The news that Xiao Jue was no longer capable spread quickly, and the whole capital was talking about it.
Upon learning this news, Shen Wenyuan immediately went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion and found Xie Qingran.
"For your baby's one-month celebration, I made two gold longevity locks for them. Please don't find them offensive."
Shen Wenyuan never comes empty-handed when he visits Xie Qingran; he always brings her gifts. Now that Xie Qingran is a mother, he also brings things for her two children out of love for her.
Upon seeing the two exquisite gold locks that Shen Wenyuan had presented, Xie Qingran was overjoyed. She hurriedly stepped forward, picked them up to examine them, and said with a smile, "They're so beautiful!"
"I also took it to Huguo Temple and had it blessed by a master. No matter what kind of demons or monsters it is, they won't be able to get close to the child. It will definitely ensure that the child grows up safely."
Seeing that Xie Qingran genuinely liked the gift he brought, Shen Wenyuan smiled, clearly very satisfied.
Xie Qingran handed the items to Baozhu, then said indifferently, "I can tell you're the kind of guy who only comes here when he needs something. So, what do you want?"
"Nothing much, I just came to see you."
"You've just finished your postpartum period, so you should stay home and rest. It's best not to go out unless necessary."
Shen Wenyuan didn't know if what was said outside was true or false, but his heartache for Xie Qingran was real. He didn't want Xie Qingran to hear these words, and he didn't want Xie Qingran to be upset.
Why does this person seem a bit strange today?
Xie Qingran frowned as she watched Shen Wenyuan hesitate several times before saying something, and said unhappily, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. What are you doing, making such a fuss? I'm not used to it."
"I..." Shen Wenyuan glanced at Xie Qingran, still unsure how to ask about this matter.
This is mainly a matter between the two of them. If he were to actually ask, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
"Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't."
"trouble."
Xie Qingran waved her hand impatiently with a look of disgust, then pointed to the doorway.
"Take care, and don't bother seeing me off."
This has been their usual way of getting along lately, so Shen Wenyuan didn't find anything wrong with it and had even gotten used to it.
He glanced at Xie Qingran, then sighed and strode outside.
Looking at Shen Wenyuan's back, Xie Qingran felt that this person was simply inexplicable.
She frowned and then asked, "Baozhu, what exactly do you think this person means?"
"What else could it mean? There's a lot of talk outside about how bad things are going on with our Duke. He's probably here to sound out what people are saying, right?"
"Miss, Zhao Yuanqi has arrived in Lingnan. Our people are keeping an eye on him and will report on his situation at any time."
After Baozhu looked around to make sure no one was there, she lowered her voice and reported the matter.
Xie Qingran toyed with the teacup in her hand and said calmly, "Keep a close eye on things."
"yes."
Lingnan, the Lu family.
Zhao Yuanqi traveled a long way, but instead of the smiling face he had imagined, he saw that Lu Jinzhi and Xie Hanyue both looked rather grim, especially Xie Hanyue.
When Xie Hanyue saw Zhao Yuanqi, it was as if she had seen a savior. Tears immediately streamed down her face, and anyone who didn't know better would think she had suffered a great deal of injustice.
Lu Jinzhi's expression was already not good, and now seeing Xie Hanyue's behavior made him even more angry. He directly questioned, "Xie Hanyue, what do you mean? I've wronged you, why are you crying when you see him!"
"Brother Zhao, I really want to go back to the capital."
Xie Hanyue stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Yuanqi's sleeve, and pleaded desperately.
She didn't even care what Lu Jinzhi's expression was anymore; she didn't want anything, she just wanted to go home!
Seeing Xie Hanyue's aggrieved and broken state, Zhao Yuanqi felt a pang of heartache. He looked at Lu Jinzhi helplessly and said, "Hanyue has grown up with us since she was little. Now that you're married, as her older brother, you should take better care of her. How can you bully her?"
"General Zhao, you jest. How my wife and I live our lives is a matter between us, and I'm afraid it's none of your business."
"Xie Hanyue, wipe away your tears, or don't blame me for embarrassing you in public!"
Lu Jinzhi gritted his teeth and looked at Xie Hanyue with a warning.
The couple's marriage of a few months has completely worn down their feelings for each other. Forget about being childhood sweethearts; they are now at odds.
"Lu Jinzhi, what right do you have to talk to me like that? You good-for-nothing, you were banished to this godforsaken place, and you still dare to order me around?"
