Chapter 034 Stop it, I'm so sleepy

The bed curtains were opened, revealing Ruan Qinghuan's angry face. After a whole day's sleep, her round little face was flushed with laziness, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes. She sat on the bed with her legs curled up, her back straight, and glared at He An.

"Don't worry. From now on, I will let Jiang Ming and Jiang Qi guard the yard. No one is allowed to disturb us."

"Mother can't come in either?"

"No, outsiders are not allowed to disturb us."

Ruan Qinghuan: "He'an, when did I give you a purse?"

"I don't want hers."

"If you don't want her, just say no?"

"But I want the lady's."

Ruan Qinghuan was embarrassed for a moment: "I can't."

"Don't worry, even if my wife doesn't give it to me, I can't accept it from someone else."

Ruan Qinghuan: “…”

This statement is quite appealing.

The present life makes Ruan Qinghuan feel confused and stuck in the mud. At first, she thought about starting her own business and getting a divorce after two years, but she didn't know when the plot started to change.

How did He'an, the cold and abstinent Prime Minister, become the man who dotes on his wife excessively?

He couldn't figure out what was going on and all the arguments with him were repetitive. Ruan Qinghuan lay helplessly on the bed and could only say, let him do whatever he wants.

In a daze, half asleep and half awake, a warm hand embraced her, and Ruan Qinghuan murmured, "Stop it, I'm so sleepy."

The other party acted as if he didn't hear anything and kept getting closer. Ruan Qinghuan subconsciously pushed him away.

Until she felt something hard, she suddenly woke up and warned: "He An, you'd better be honest."

He wasn't poisoned today, and she was aching all over after working all day and night yesterday.

The breathing behind him became heavier. He An buried his head in her hair, exuding a faint fragrance, and begged in a hoarse voice, "Just once."

"no."

Thinking that she was tired, He An originally wanted to sleep peacefully, but as he got more and more addicted, some things seemed to be out of control at this moment.

"Ma'am, I'm going to have a nosebleed."

Ruan Qinghuan turned over with force, held He'an with one hand and touched his nose with the other. There was no bleeding at all, but her action stimulated He'an even more. He easily moved her hand away and held him tightly in his arms.

"Crane..." Ruan Qinghuan didn't have the chance to say the rest of the words.

It seemed like He'an had found some secret. Every time he kissed her, she would become soft after a while. This method worked every time.

Ruan Qinghuan was kissed so hard that her consciousness gradually became blurred. He An whispered in her ear: "Mrs. Lao."

Ruan Qinghuan was speechless. Every time he did something bad, he would always say this.

"He An, you are a bastard."

He An: "Madam is right."

Ruan Qinghuan: “…”

It’s over, the Prime Minister is stunned.

The man's mouth is a lie. He said he would do it once, but he did it again and again. Even the bed made a creaking sound, which was very harsh in the night.

"He'an, the bed will be ready soon."

I thought he would restrain himself, but he just carried her to the couch. There was no bed curtain this time. Under the dim moonlight, Ruan Qinghuan really didn't dare to close her eyes.

In the next room, Wei Mingxi was so angry that she couldn't sleep. Then she heard what seemed to be a mouse chirping and squeak-squeaking in the room. She was so scared that she asked the maid to look for it.

The two searched for a long time and found that the sound seemed to come from outside and came to the wall. On the opposite side was Changchun Garden.

The two of them listened for a long time, but the sound was gone. However, just as they were about to return to their room, the sound appeared again. It was certain that it was coming from the cousin's room.

The maid blushed immediately: "Miss, don't listen to it, go back quickly."

Wei Mingxi didn't react: "Is there a mouse in my cousin's room?"

"Oh, it's not a mouse, Miss General Manager, please don't listen to it."

Ruan Qinghuan in the room was so angry that she was about to die. She said that the moonlight was too bright. He An then carried her back to the bed. Listening to the bed shaking and making a harsh sound, Ruan Qinghuan was furious, but there was nothing she could do.

It was not until after midnight that He'an finally calmed down. He then carried her to take a bath, and then brought her back to sleep.

Lying back on the bed, He An wanted to hug her, but Ruan Qinghuan turned over and avoided him. He An said, "Madam is tired. Let's rest tonight."

Ruan Qinghuan: “…”

Why does this sound so awkward?

Rest first, then continue after resting?

The next day, the weather was just right. The light blue sky was clear and bright, and white clouds moved slowly with the breeze.

The usually quiet Huating Lane was extremely lively today. Some of the dignitaries in the capital brought their families to the Prince's Mansion for a banquet.

All the officials were welcomed into the mansion, and some young men and women gathered at the door.

Banquets at the Prince's Mansion are rare on ordinary days. I don't know how many people are trying their best to attend, and those who can come are definitely not ordinary people.

There are many sons of officials and noble ladies, and everyone has her own little calculations in her mind.

The officials thought more deeply. Just as a scandal occurred at Prince Chen's flower viewing party, the prince held a banquet at his mansion, obviously trying to overshadow Prince Chen.

Now that Prince Chen is under house arrest, the matter of disaster relief in Lucheng has been handed over to the Prime Minister. It can be seen that the Emperor should place more importance on the Crown Prince. After all, the legitimate reason is legitimate. Although Prince Chen is the son of Concubine Miao, he is not a legitimate son after all.

What's more, in terms of moral character, King Chen is too stubborn and unscrupulous.

As soon as the carriage from the Prime Minister's residence arrived, the maid from the Crown Prince's residence came forward and greeted Ruan Qinghuan: "The Crown Princess ordered this old servant to wait for the young lady here. Please follow me, young lady."

Ruan Qinghuan looked at He'an, who nodded, signaling her to just go.

Yes, this is the Crown Prince's Mansion, not the Second Prince's Peach Garden, so there shouldn't be so many calculations.

Following the nanny, we walked through the corridors, around the small paths, and finally arrived at an open room by the lake, where we heard voices coming from inside.

Mammy: "Young Madam, please."

The curtain of the hall was lifted from the inside, revealing a familiar face. Like Ruan Qinghuan, he was a little surprised: "Why is it you?"

The Crown Princess: "Do you two have to talk like this, one inside and one outside?"

Chu Li then quickly walked down the stairs and pulled Ruan Qinghuan into the open hall.

"I have met the Crown Princess and Miss Chu."

The Crown Princess waved her hands and said, "Qinghuan, there's no need to be so polite. Although you and I have only met a few times, I have heard of you a long time ago."

Chu Li stepped forward and helped her up: "I didn't expect you to be the iron-clad wife of He An. I really wonder, how could you have managed to deal with someone as cold and indifferent as He An?"

Ruan Qinghuan pursed her lips. This Miss Chu’s personality is... so straightforward.

This should be due to her family background. Girls from ordinary families would not dare to think or say such things.

The Crown Princess suppressed her laughter and said, "Qing Huan, please sit down. Don't listen to this girl's nonsense. She is just trying to learn from you."

"Seeking Buddhist scriptures?" Ruan Qinghuan was confused.

Chu Li blushed and didn't want the Crown Princess to continue, but the Crown Princess pretended not to notice: "If the Prime Minister is a lump of iron, then Ji Lingchuan is a lump of wood."

Ruan Qinghuan laughed: "Crown Princess, this analogy is quite appropriate."

Chu Li noticed that Ruan Qinghuan's skirt was very special and wondered, "The weather is getting warmer. Isn't it hot for Madam to dress like this?"

He pointed to his neck while speaking.

The collar of an ordinary dress is only two fingers wide, but Ruan Qinghuan's collar covers her face.

"This is a style I designed myself. I just finished it and I'm wearing it. Your Highness and Miss Chu, please don't laugh at me."

Ruan Qinghuan sighed inwardly. She was not lying. She did design the clothes herself, but she had to wear them to cover up her ugliness.

Chu Li stopped dwelling on this matter and sat down next to Ruan Qinghuan: "Madam, I asked my cousin how she dealt with the Crown Prince, but I didn't understand what she said for a long time. Can you tell me how the Prime Minister fell for you?"

The Crown Princess shook her head and said, "You have no shame."

Ruan Qinghuan was surprised to find out that Chu Li and the Crown Princess had this kind of relationship.

In the original book, Ruan Qinghuan was either arguing with He'an or on the way to an argument, and he almost never attended any event with him, including the previous peach blossom viewing party and today's banquet at the Prince's Mansion.

Naturally, he had no connection with the Crown Princess and Chu Li.

"Just tell me, if you tell me, I'll treat you to halogen pork elbow and crispy chicken at Pinminglou..." Then he shook Ruan Qinghuan's arm, "Okay?"

Because Ruan Qinghuan had helped her in the peach forest, when they saw each other today, it felt like an old friend and they were very close.

Ruan Qinghuan looked embarrassed: "I... I just got married not long ago, and He An is not very kind to me, right?"

Ruan Qinghuan wanted to get away with it, thinking that one should not highlight one's own strengths by exploiting others' weaknesses.

What's more, she and He'an were supposed to live their own lives and get divorced after two years. As for how it came to this shameless point, she really couldn't explain it.

Chu Li was unhappy when he heard this and ran to the Crown Princess: "Cousin, look, He An and Ji Lingchuan are birds of a feather. He married Ruan Qinghuan and treated her badly. How infuriating."

"Why can't they learn from the prince's brother-in-law, what is the way to be a husband, what is the gentleman's demeanor..."

The Crown Princess: "Just because His Royal Highness is gentle doesn't mean he doesn't have a temper. Chu Li, matters between men and women are based on mutual consent. A forced marriage is not a happy one. You..."

"I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, Ji Lingchuan said it himself, he wants to marry me."

Ruan Qinghuan: “…”

Is there such a thing?

Crown Princess: "Can you really take the words of a six or seven-year-old child seriously?"

"What's wrong with the child? Anyway, he said it, and he has to do it." Chu Li was determined.

Ruan Qinghuan frowned: "Miss Chu, when General Ji was six or seven years old, you were only about two years old, do you remember all this?"

Chu Li bit her lip.

The Crown Princess explained, "How could she remember it? She just heard the Duke and General Ji mention it during their personal chat, and she took it seriously."

Ruan Qinghuan: “…”

Is this okay?
