Chapter 282: Coaxing Myself
In the carriage, Sang Ru heard Xiao Jinghe's words clearly, and immediately wiped a cold sweat for his daughter, which was a bit scary.
Yu Qinghuan was suddenly frightened by Xiao Jinghe's yell and trembled, staring blankly at the person in front of him.
This was the first time this person lost his temper in front of him, and it seemed that he was really angry.
The moment he shouted the words, Xiao Jinghe regretted it. If he had something to say, he could say it nicely. No matter how angry he was, he should not yell at a woman, especially since Yu Qinghuan was pregnant.
He reached out to pull Yu Qinghuan, but the latter dodged.
Seeing Yu Qinghuan avoiding him, Xiao Jinghe suddenly felt a little flustered and hurriedly explained, "I just feel bad, I didn't mean to yell at you, don't be angry..."
Even though he was furious just now, he was now afraid that the person in front of him would be angry and ignore him.
He had never felt this way before, caring so much about someone, wanting her to be happy, wanting her to laugh, but also afraid that the person who made her laugh wasn't him.
Yu Qinghuan didn't expect that Xiao Jinghe had coaxed her before she said anything. This man seemed to be easier to coax than before?
She took the initiative to reach out and pull Xiao Jinghe's sleeve, "I'm not angry, don't be angry."
Just these words made Xiao Jinghe's eyes red, and he felt much better. He hugged the person in front of him and said, "Don't do this next time. You don't know how hard it has been for me these days. I can't even see you in my dreams..."
During the time when he couldn't find Yu Qinghuan, he even thought about compromising. As long as she didn't disappear from his sight and he could see her a few times every day, it would be fine.
But he is Xiao Jinghe, the current emperor. How can he be an unknown person?
At this time, the followers brought by Xiao Jinghe turned their backs, not daring to pry into their master's private affairs.
The groom was also dumbfounded and didn't understand what was going on.
Sang Ru quietly lifted the curtain and took a peek, and saw that the two people in front of her were hugging each other. She felt in her heart that girls were really good at coaxing men.
But just as she finished her sigh, she caught a glimpse of a figure hiding in the corner next to her, with half of its face covered by shadows. The figure was staring at the couple hugging each other not far away.
Why is the Marquis here?!
At this moment, watching the two people in front hugging each other, Yu Qinghuan did not struggle to break free.
The scene distorted and expanded in his vision. His face was pale, his expression was ferocious, his muscles were tense and trembling, his knuckles were pressed tightly against the cracks in the wall, and he was unaware of the rough gravel piercing his flesh.
The woman who had once been so gentle and caring in his arms was now leaning in the arms of another man, and he couldn't run out to find out what was going on!
Sang Ru looked at this scene which was almost like catching an adulterer, and felt a chill on her back. She wanted to remind her own girl, but then she thought, it doesn’t matter, why should she care what the Marquis does?
Even if the girl were to marry Xiao Jinghe in public now, the Marquis would have to bear the consequences.
After all, this is the current emperor, not the second master. Anyone who dares to touch him will lose his head.
Obviously, although Xie Zhiwen was trembling with anger, he was not foolish enough to rush up and hit anyone. Due to Xiao Jinghe's identity, he just hid in the dark at the moment, suppressing his anger, even though he felt very aggrieved.
As the emperor, he coveted the wife of his minister. Isn't Xiao Jinghe afraid of being ridiculed by the world?!
At this time, Xiao Jinghe, holding his beloved, was not only not afraid of being ridiculed by the world, but was even afraid that the world would not know that this was his woman.
Knowing that the tough approach wouldn't work on Yu Qinghuan, he immediately started speaking nice words.
"Huanhuan, you're not feeling well right now. These doctors out there can't compare to the palace physicians. Will you please come back with me?"
Yu Qinghuan was about to refuse when she heard Xiao Jinghe say, "After you give birth to the child, if you want to leave the palace, I will take you out anytime, okay?"
This person looked like he was in a discussion with her, which was completely different from his previous behavior.
If the civil and military officials in the court saw this, they would be shocked.
But Yu Qinghuan is not a fool. Cheng Gongjin took so much effort to get her out of the palace. If she really goes back with Xiao Jinghe, there will be no other Cheng Gongjin in the future who can take her out of the palace without anyone noticing.
So, she flatly refused, "No, I'm doing well outside now, with good food and accommodation, and it's more comfortable than in the palace."
Xiao Jinghe suppressed his emotions and patiently persuaded her, "Huanhuan, just come back with me. I promise that I won't restrain you like before!"
He spoke nicely and in a gentle tone, but anyone else would have been defeated.
But the person in front of Xiao Jinghe was Yu Qinghuan. Having suffered a loss once, she would not believe a word Xiao Jinghe said even if he said something nice.
"I'm fine here, so I won't go back with you. It's not safe outside the palace. Go back quickly and don't let anyone see you."
Although King Rui died a long time ago, there is no guarantee that there are no other traitors.
If Xiao Jinghe were to be assassinated outside the palace, the whole world would be in chaos, and she could not bear the responsibility.
When Xiao Jinghe heard the first half of Yu Qinghuan's words, he almost went crazy and almost had a seizure, but after hearing the second half, his emotions were calmed down.
Huanhuan cares about him.
"Huanhuan, I haven't slept for two days. Can you be a good boy and not make me worry?"
Seeing that he refused to listen and just wanted to bring her into the palace, Yu Qinghuan could only tell the truth, "Actually, I bought a restaurant today and plan to do business in Beijing..."
Hearing this, Xiao Jinghe's face darkened. "You don't want to be the queen, but go on a business trip?!"
Isn't this just self-debasement?
Seeing that he was a little anxious, Yu Qinghuan quickly explained, "I do business to help you."
Xiao Jinghe was stunned, a little surprised, "Help me?"
He looked puzzled. How could Yu Qinghuan, a businessman, help him?
Yu Qinghuan thought back to what Cheng Gongjin had said to him. "Many officials in the capital have accepted bribes, and officials and businessmen are colluding with each other. I'm sure the national treasury must be in deficit now, right?"
Xiao Jinghe's face darkened. This was the atmosphere in the capital. He had intended to punish it after ascending the throne, but such things happened to all officials, big and small, in the court and could not be solved overnight.
Moreover, the national treasury is in deficit, and if a natural disaster occurs, money will have to be taken out of the pockets of these merchants.
Glancing at Xiao Jinghe's reaction, Yu Qinghuan knew that he was right.
A cunning flashed in her eyes, "You think, when my restaurant opens, I can make money to fill the treasury for you, and I can also suppress those people..."
Xiao Jinghe frowned, "Huanhuan, things are not as simple as you think. Behind those people are officials of all ranks in the court. How can a weak woman like you handle them?"
Yu Qinghuan raised her eyebrows slightly, "They have the protection of officials in the court, but don't I have you!?"
She hugged Xiao Jinghe's arm and said softly, "Your Majesty, I worked so hard to open the restaurant just to help you. If someone bullies me in the future, you will definitely help me, right?"
