As soon as these words came out, Chen Qingxuan could no longer refute them. His eyes turned red. He stood up and took two steps back. Then he knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times to Zhong Mingwei: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
"Okay, go back and prepare," Zhong Mingwei helped Chen Qingxuan up and said casually, "My girl and I have prepared some gifts for you and Wen Min to take to Ningguta. Wen Min should have gone to Jingren Palace to get them. Go and see if there is anything missing. Go and prepare with Wen Min while there is still time."
Chen Qingxuan was startled: "Kong Wenmin...does he know that I'm going back to Ningguta?"
"I know." Zhong Mingwei looked at Chen Qingxuan's stunned and shocked face, and couldn't help but curl his lips. "When I told him just now, he was so happy. Maybe he thought that he had someone to accompany him on the road, so he wouldn't have to go alone."
When Chen Qingxuan heard what Zhong Mingwei said, and thought about Kong Wenmin's smug look just now, his cheeks suddenly turned red. He couldn't stay any longer and hurriedly left the palace.
…
"Why are you here?" Chen Qingxuan walked out of the palace and saw Kong Wenmin standing under the gatehouse not far away. He was startled for a moment and then walked over.
"Waiting for you," Kong Wenmin saw him coming out, his face full of smiles, while pulling Chen Qingxuan's sleeve, he said, "Let's go buy New Year's goods!"
"What is there to buy?" Chen Qingxuan said disdainfully, shaking his hands. "What is there in Ningguta? Do you need to transport so many bags there?"
"Ningguta certainly has everything, but we can't go back empty-handed," Kong Wenmin said with a smile, pulling Chen Qingxuan towards the carriage, and added, "Besides, we have to prepare some dry food for the journey. You have to get up early before dawn every day to attend court on an empty stomach, and your stomach is not in good condition. In this cold weather, we have to travel again, so we can't let your stomach suffer any more. So I thought of bringing pots and bowls on the road, so that when we are in the middle of nowhere, I can make you some porridge or something."
"How do you know that I go to court on an empty stomach every day?" Chen Qingxuan looked at Kong Wenmin in confusion.
Kong Wenmin acted as if he was not going to tell you, but Chen Qingxuan was too lazy to pay attention to him. He snorted and turned his head away.
"Qingxuan, I recently learned how to make porridge," Kong Wenmin suddenly changed the subject, "white rice porridge is the best, preserved egg and lean meat porridge is also okay, if there is enough time, honey bean and lily porridge, eight-treasure porridge should also be able to make it."
"Oh," Chen Qingxuan nodded, glanced at Kong Wenmin in confusion, and asked inexplicably, "So what?"
"So, after you came back from Ningguta, you..." Kong Wenmin suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Qingxuan, who was still walking forward with his head down. As soon as he met Chen Qingxuan's confused eyes, Kong Wenmin felt so nervous that his heart almost burst out of his chest. After a long time, he spoke silently, "So after you came back from Ningguta, do you want to... move in and live with me?"
"Why...why should I move in and live with you?" Chen Qingxuan's whole body suddenly froze, and then his face turned red uncontrollably to the neck. He could feel that his whole body was burning, and he knew that he must have blushed. He was very annoyed and even more annoyed with Kong Wenmin. He couldn't help but glare at Kong Wenmin, but seeing such a grown man scratching his head and looking frustrated, he couldn't glare at him anymore. He just turned his head silently and looked at the horse leisurely eating grass in the sunset. Chen Qingxuan's heart was in turmoil.
Why did Kong Wenmin ask him to move there?
What on earth is he thinking? What on earth is he trying to do?
…
Do you really not know? Do you really know nothing about what he has in mind for you?
