Chapter 55 You Have No Other Choice
Xiao Lanyuan was a little amused when he saw Fu Zhaoning like this.
He didn't know why, but the more he saw how much she wanted to divorce and get rid of him, the more he didn't want to do as she wished.
"I am a loyal and devoted person. We just got married, how can I abandon you after having an affair? It will not be good for my reputation if it gets out."
Xiao Lanyuan held her hand tightly, raised it up, and chuckled.
"Princess, look, our hands fit perfectly. It's just right to hold them like this. How about we hold hands and spend our lives together?"
Xiao Lanyuan said this very gently and affectionately, as if he really liked her.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but shudder.
If she hadn't already known about the feud between him and the Fu family, and if he hadn't admitted yesterday why he agreed to marry her, she would have almost believed it!
"Hello!"
Hai Changjun couldn't help herself when she saw this, she slammed the table hard again, causing the tea set on the table to jump.
"Prince Jun, you are going too far! Although I like you very much, you can't bully me like this! You called me here just to watch you two being affectionate, right? This Saint Girl won't watch anymore!"
She said this angrily and looked at Fu Zhaoning again.
"And you, Fu Zhaoning, are you kidding me? Do you know that your husband only wants my blood-heart silkworm? So when I said I would give him to me, and that he invited me to play because he liked me, you were just thinking it was a joke, weren't you?"
"I'll remember you! Don't you know medical skills? If you have the guts, don't participate in this gambling medicine festival. If you dare to participate, I will make you lose everything!"
"snort!"
After Hai Changjun shouted these words loudly, he turned around and walked away angrily.
Qing Yi wanted to stop her, "Miss Hai, it's not like that."
Their prince had no intention of playing tricks on her. He just wanted to talk about the blood-heart silkworm. Don't misunderstand or get angry.
But Hai Changjun ignored him, glared at him fiercely, and cursed, "You are all bad guys!"
After cursing, he ran out like a whirlwind.
Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.
Qing Yi looked at Prince Jun helplessly, "Prince, why did you make Miss Hai angry and leave? How can she be willing to sell the blood-heart silkworm to us?"
This was the first time their master had messed up something like this.
In the past, no matter what he wanted or who he had to deal with, the master could always do it with ease and achieve his goal without making any noise, but what happened today?
Why does the master want to provoke the sea girl like this?
"Do I have to sell my body in order to get the Blood-Heart Silkworm?" He glanced at Qing Yi indifferently.
Qing Yi was startled and quickly lowered his head, "I know I was wrong."
It is not his turn to question what the prince does.
The smile on Xiao Lanyuan's lips disappeared at this time. He let go of Fu Zhaoning's hand, took out a white cotton handkerchief from his arms, and wiped his hand carefully and slowly.
It was as if he had just held Fu Zhaoning's hand for so long that it was already stained with dirt.
Fu Zhaoning was so angry that he laughed at his action.
"Aren't you going to act anymore? Prince Jun, don't you want to hold my hand and spend the rest of your life with me?" she asked through gritted teeth.
"My actions just now were meant to give you an idea. What do you think, how about we be a couple who respect each other in front of others and keep our distance when there are no outsiders?"
As Xiao Lanyuan spoke, he picked up the small pot on the charcoal stove and threw the handkerchief into the stove. The flames immediately burned the handkerchief.
Smoke rose and Fu Zhaoning glared at him.
Are you complaining that even the handkerchief you used to wipe your hands is not clean enough?
"No, not interested."
"It's not up to you."
Xiao Lanyuan laughed again.
"In fact, you had no choice that day. If you hadn't picked someone else to marry on the street and just ran back to the Fu family, your grandfather would have died."
Therefore, Fu Zhaoning didn't need to regret choosing him to get married, and besides, no one else would agree.
"If you choose someone else, no one else would dare to offend Prince Xiao's Mansion. Xiao Yanjing has already said that he will see who else you can marry. This is clearly a threat to you and others. If anyone dares to marry you, it means they are against him. Do you think anyone would dare to go against him and agree to marry you?"
Fu Zhaoning gritted her teeth, she knew he was telling the truth.
Otherwise, why would she choose him at that time?
"But if I had gone home at that time, my grandfather might not have been unable to bear the shock."
"You are deceiving yourself."
Xiao Lanyuan began to brew tea and said calmly, "He survived that day because he relaxed his mind that day. He thought you had successfully married into Prince Xiao's mansion, so he relaxed his mind and was able to eat and sleep well during those days. That's how he survived until you came back to give him acupuncture three days later."
"Go back and try it on the day you get married."
He is right.
Fu Zhaoning took a deep breath.
Because her grandfather was so opposed to her marrying Xiao Lanyuan, she began to doubt whether her choice that day was right or not, and whether she was foolish enough to marry someone so carelessly.
But now that Xiao Lanyuan reviewed the day's events with her, she finally calmed down.
She really had no choice that day.
Because she had just come here that day, she didn't have time to prepare properly or make other plans.
"Grandfather wants me to divorce you." Fu Zhaoning looked at him.
"I will not agree." Xiao Lanyuan smiled and brought a cup of tea to her, "Drink tea."
"Fen Xing, bring the tea over here. I want to drink the tea you brew!" Fu Zhaoning snorted and waved at Fen Xing. She didn't want to drink the tea he brewed.
"Yes, Princess." Fen Xing immediately brought the tea over. Hong Zhuo also placed the snacks in front of Fu Zhaoning.
"Princess, these are the best snacks made by our chef in the palace. Please try them."
After putting down their things, they quickly retreated behind Fu Zhaoning, standing with their hands hanging down, ready to take orders at any time.
Fu Zhaoning picked up the tea and took a sip.
"Mm, the tea brewed by Pink Star is really delicious."
He picked up another snack and tasted a piece.
"This dessert is sweet but not greasy, and has a slight sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. It's really delicious."
After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at Xiao Lanyuan.
"These two maids really care about you." Xiao Lanyuan was not angry, but felt that she was a little childish. "Then let them be your first-class maids."
"Yes, Your Highness." Hong Zhuofenxing was overjoyed and agreed quickly, fearing that Prince Jun would go back on his word.
As the maids beside the princess, they only need to follow the princess closely.
Fu Zhaoning felt that she couldn't understand Xiao Lanyuan's thoughts. He obviously disliked her and had a grudge against her parents, so why didn't he divorce her?
Is it really because of face?
At this moment, Imperial Physician Shen came over with the medicine boy, and the housekeeper also walked over quickly at this time.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor's men are here!"
