Chapter 289 We are husband and wife
"Brother Zhen."
The Queen whispered.
She pushed the door open and entered a side room.
The night-shining pearl in his hand illuminated the room.
This room is different from the shabby one outside. It obviously has signs of being lived in. It has been tidied up and is neat and clean. There is a bed, a table and a cabinet. There are also a lot of pens, inkstones, papers and candlesticks on the table.
But there are weeds outside the window here, and if you don’t come in, you will definitely not know that the house is different.
A person appeared silently behind the bed.
If there were someone else here, they would find that this person actually looks 40% similar to the current emperor!
Moreover, he looks to be about the same age as the emperor, but he has far fewer wrinkles on his face than the emperor, and his face is so smooth that it seems a bit weird.
He obviously doesn't look young anymore, but he doesn't have the wrinkles of a middle-aged person.
Moreover, he was also wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, but he didn't wear a belt, which made him look a little out of place.
The dragon robe doesn't fit him well and doesn't look like his clothes.
"You haven't come over these few days. Why is the harem so busy?"
"Brother Zhen, something has been going on these days, and the emperor has been staring at me." The queen was a little more shy than usual in front of this man.
"Why are you staring at me?"
"Two of the tokens left by the retired emperor have been in the hands of Prince Jun, and one is with the head of the Hu family, but the head of the Hu family has disappeared recently. The emperor doesn't seem to trust anyone now. He thinks that anyone could have a crush on the three tokens, and as the queen, I am also a possibility."
Speaking of this matter, the queen was also a little angry.
She originally thought that the emperor trusted her very much, but she discovered in the past two days that the emperor was still wary of her, fearing that she would do something with her mother's family.
"Master Hu? Where are the people?"
"I don't know. I've already sent people out to look for him. I don't know what happened to him. He suddenly disappeared."
"Hurry up and send someone to look for them. You should know that I have been waiting for those three tokens as well."
"I know, Brother Zhen, I haven't been here these few days, have you been out?"
"Why go out? I've already said that I will wait until I sit on the throne before I go out and see my kingdom and my people openly!"
"Yes." The Queen said quickly, "This kingdom of Zhao should have been yours. But Brother Zhen, I haven't found a chance to let the world know that there is a person named Xiao Zhen. How should your identity be revealed by then?"
"I am recovering slowly. If I could see the light of day, I could go out openly and let people see my face."
Xiao Zhen touched his face, his eyes filled with hatred, "But I can't stand the light! I've been treating it for so many years, but this face, this face still festeres when it sees the light!"
"Brother Zhen, don't worry. I have also been contacting people from the Great Medical Association and will find you a doctor with better medical skills."
Xiao Zhen looked at her, "I think you are also afraid of losing your status as the queen, right? So, you dare not be too dedicated in doing these things for me, for fear that your actions will arouse others' suspicion and find out that there is something wrong with you, right?"
"Brother Zhen, how can you doubt me? Of course I do my best for you, but you also know that the Queen Mother has never completely given up her power. She knows everything about me very quickly. I not only have to be on guard against the Emperor, but also the Queen Mother. Now that Prince Jun is back, I have to be on guard against him as well. It's not easy for me."
"You better really try your best."
Xiao Zhen snorted coldly, grabbed her hand and led her to the bed.
"You haven't come to pamper me for so many days. Do you want to suffocate me to death?"
After a while, the queen's suppressed voice was heard in the room.
After dinner, Fu Zhaoning looked at Xiao Lanyuan, "You've already had dinner here, why don't you go back?"
Originally, she had always had dinner with her grandfather and Xiaofei, but tonight, because Xiao Lanyuan was here, she could only find an excuse to hide in her yard and eat with him.
Old Master Fu and Xiao Lanyuan cannot meet each other at all now. When they meet, they either talk about divorce or what happened in the past.
Fu Zhaoning also didn't want his grandfather to be constantly irritated.
"I've thought about it. If you don't move to the palace, then I'll live in the Fu family."
Xiao Lanyuan said this, waved his hand to let everyone go, and walked to her bedside and sat down slowly.
Xiaotao and Qingyi both retreated and closed the door.
The candlelight flickered in the room, and Fu Zhaoning was stunned by Xiao Lanyuan's actions.
"No, Xiao Lanyuan, what are you going to do?"
"sleep."
"Sleep, sleep?! That's my bed!"
"Well, give me half. Didn't I sleep with it last time?" Xiao Lanyuan said.
"You, you, you, what are you going to do?"
"We are husband and wife."
"Aren't we going to get divorced sooner or later?"
Xiao Lanyuan paused, took off his mask, and smiled at her.
"Well, even if we are going to divorce in the end, we are still husband and wife after that, so what's the problem with doing what we do according to our identities?"
How come there is no problem?
Fu Zhaoning walked over quickly and stretched out his hand to pull him up, "Of course there is a problem! Since we are going to separate in the end, we must draw a clear line now to avoid entanglement in the future!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Lanyuan pulled her back and pushed her onto the bed.
He looked into her eyes and said, "Ningning, don't you think it's too late now? We have done a lot of things we should and shouldn't do."
He figured it out. No matter what Fu Lin was like, she was his benefactor, the little girl who had once given him warmth.
He had already been unfair to her before and had repaid her kindness in the wrong way. Now he couldn't continue to treat her with the same attitude as before and say that he would keep Fu Lin and use her as a weapon when she came back, right?
"You are shameless." Fu Zhaoning put his hand against him.
"It's not that shameless. You are my princess now." Xiao Lanyuan looked at her red lips and couldn't help but lower his head.
I wanted to try it first, but once I started I couldn't stop.
"Xiao Lanyuan, you..."
"Call me A Yuan."
“Shameless.”
"Ningning, have I ever told you that you look exactly like what I like?"
When Qing, who was guarding outside, saw that the candle inside had gone out, he knew that the prince would not return to the mansion that night, so he said to Xiao Tao, "You go and rest, you don't have to guard."
Xiao Tao was stunned, "But, Your Majesty..."
He hasn't left yet!
"Have you forgotten how the reward money came from?"
"Uncle?"
"Yes, since you know that my prince is your young lady's brother-in-law, what's wrong with him staying here?" Qing Yi asked back.
Xiao Tao was speechless for a moment.
"Okay, go and rest."
After sending Xiaotao away, Qingyi looked at the door again and turned away.
Hehe, the prince seems to have come to his senses now, which is a good thing.
