This was not the first time that Li Han heard Lu Li's confession, but every time she heard those affectionate and sweet words, she couldn't help but blush.
No matter how thick-skinned Li Han is, she still has a girlish heart. It is difficult for her to face such a shameful thing as a man confessing his love to her in public without blushing or feeling nervous.
Especially after being ridiculed by Li Shu, he felt extremely ashamed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into. He thought to himself that Lu Li was really shameless and could say anything so casually.
At this moment, the emperor suddenly called out from behind them, "Han'er, how are the lanterns? I've brought your mother with me!"
At this moment, the emperor was on a secret visit, so he did not refer to himself as "I". Like ordinary families, parents brought their children to release lanterns. This scene was still very much in the esteem of the empress and the emperor. Although they were the emperor and empress, there were still some constraints in the palace. No matter how close people were, they always felt that there was a film separating them, which could not be torn apart no matter how thin it was. Perhaps this was the price of being in a high position.
"Father, mother, come quickly, I'll make room for you!" The ambiguous atmosphere just now made Li Han a little uncomfortable. When he heard that his father and mother were coming, he hurriedly urged them to come over. In his excitement, he accidentally sprained his ankle and lost his balance. He was about to fall backwards. At this time, Lu Li supported Li Han from behind in time.
Lu Li whispered in Li Han's ear, "Why are you so careless? How can I be at ease with you being alone when you're always making such a fuss? It seems I have to be by your side all the time from now on!"
"What do you mean by 'all the time'? What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Han was upset again by Lu Li's words. His ears turned red and he quickly pushed Lu Li away.
Afterwards, Li Han walked over to the Queen and taught her how to make a wish and how to release lanterns: "Mother, when you release a lantern, you must write your wish on it and float it on the lake. Then your wish will come true."
The Queen couldn't help but sigh as she held the lantern, "Time flies! When I was still a girl, it was my father and mother who brought me to light lanterns. Now it's my daughter's turn to accompany me to light lanterns!"
Li Han hugged the queen and said, "Oh, it's such a good day, don't be sad. I will definitely accompany you more in the future. Whatever you want to do, I will be there for you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You will live with your husband in the future. If you keep coming to your mother every day, he will be jealous of me. If this affects your married life, it will be my fault!" the queen joked.
"Mother, what are you talking about? What about married life?" Li Han suddenly felt a little shy.
"Okay, enough talking. Where is the lantern you put? Show it to me!"
Li Han then pointed to the lanterns floating in the water in the distance and said to the Queen, pointing to the lanterns next to them and introducing them to Lu Li and Li Shu: "We released these lanterns together, and we hope that our wishes will come true!"
The Queen nodded in satisfaction. At this moment, she suddenly exclaimed, "Han'er, how come your and Lu Li's lanterns got caught on a branch? This is unlucky!"
Lu Li also noticed that his and Li Han's lanterns were stuck: "Don't worry, I'll go and hook them right away!"
"I don't want you to hook it, I can do it myself!" Li Han snorted at Lu Li, and as if in a fit of anger, she went to climb the tree and hook the lanterns. Lu Li just shook his head helplessly. The Queen said behind him: "Han'er, be careful, don't show off!"
Li Han seemed not to hear and walked towards the tree branch. The Queen said helplessly to Lu Li, "Han'er is just like this. Don't be offended by her fuss. Husband and wife are one. They need to be considerate and understanding of each other in order to last. Han'er is not a bad person at heart, she's just a little willful. If you coax her well, everything will be solved."
"Yes, Lu Li understands!" Lu Li answered seriously.
Then, the Queen looked at Li Han, who was hooking lanterns nearby, and suddenly asked, "Lu Li, you two have been together for a long time. Seeing you two so happy, I'm very happy. I wonder when you can have a chubby baby so that Han'er's father and I can have a chubby grandchild!"
"This..." Lu Li didn't expect that the Queen would ask these questions. Although Lu Li had thought about this question, he had never taken it seriously. Now that it was raised by others, he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.
The Queen and Lu Li were talking neither loudly nor softly. Although Li Han was busy hooking lanterns, he could hear them clearly. It was not known whether the Queen was talking intentionally or unintentionally, but Li Han heard everything they said.
When she heard that the Queen and Lu Li were discussing the possibility of her and Lu Li having a child, she suddenly became a little excited. When Li Han passed by the lake, her feet got wet. In her excitement, she lost her balance, slipped, and fell from the tree branch.
Fortunately, the branch was not high, and Li Han did not fall seriously, but he still fell from a high place. It is impossible to say that nothing happened. Li Han sat on the ground, gasped, touched his butt and shouted.
Lu Li looked at Li Han and thought she was very scary. She was quite different from her previous willful and mischievous appearance, and he couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Lu Li laughing so happily, Li Han quickly stood up, limping and twisting his hips, pointing at Lu Li and shouting, "What are you laughing at? Have you ever seen a living person fall down?"
Seeing Lu Li laughing so hard that he was out of breath, Li Han was furious and cried to the Queen, "Mother, Han'er is in so much pain! Lu Li laughed at me and bullied me. You must stand up for me, punish him severely and avenge me!"
The Queen remained silent, covering her mouth with her hands to hide her laughter. Watching the young couple flirting, she felt very happy in her heart: "I can't interfere in what happens between you two!"
"Mother!" Li Han was a little angry. At this time, Lu Li suddenly picked up Li Han. Li Han shouted, "Lu Li, what are you doing? Are you going to throw me into the lake? Mother, help me! Your precious daughter is going to be abandoned!"
"Stop yelling, or I'll really throw you into the lake. I mean what I say!" Lu Li was annoyed by Li Han's yelling. After the threat, Li Han really quieted down.
Juan'er, who witnessed Li Han falling, hurried to find a doctor, fearing that Li Han might be injured.
At this time, the system prompted in Li Han's mind, Congratulations, the favorability between you and Lu Li has increased. Li Han couldn't help but rolled his eyes and complained, this favorability is really a sin!
