There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 164

Tang Wanning wiped her lips with her sleeve and glared at him angrily.

"You are simply unreasonable!"

Looking at Tang Wanning, who was furious, Xia Houjue couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.

"So what if it's unreasonable? I'm your husband alone, and this matter is justified and reasonable!"

"You!" Tang Wanning felt that this person was too thick-skinned, so she decided to scold him.

"It is said that a gentleman is hard to chase with a word, but I don't know how hard it is for you, husband?" Tang Wanning said sarcastically.

She meant to ridicule him for breaking his promise. At the beginning, he clearly promised to go his own way, but now this guy stays here every day, and tries to tease her from time to time.

It was the first time she saw her so thoroughly and shamelessly.

However, Xia Houjue didn't follow her way, and immediately curled his lips into a smirk.

"Gu is the crown prince of a country, and my concubine is the concubine of Gu. We are already in the same boat, how can we go our separate ways? Doesn't concubine Ai always refer to Gu as a teammate?"

"You..." Tang Wanning's brain short-circuited for a moment, and she seemed to be fine.

"Don't confuse concepts. I'm talking about the relationship between men and women. You know that I don't want to sleep with you!" Tang Wanning couldn't bear it and finally pointed it out.

Xia Houjue's face darkened for a moment, and it was fleeting.

"Aifei don't have to worry, Gu has no interest in you, it's just for outsiders to see!" He smirked and spread his hands.

"You also know that Gu has a virtuous name, and there is no stain on his body. How can Gu do such a thing as doting on his concubine and destroying his wife?"

Xia Houjue spoke slowly, with words written all over his face: You think too much so I'm not interested in you at all.

"Don't worry, Gu won't touch a single finger of yours!" He said again as if trying to cover up something.

Tang Wanning fell into doubt.

This reason is indeed reasonable, it's fine if you don't go to bed, if you don't play tricks with others, it really doesn't make sense.

But why did he...?
"It's not early, Gu is tired, Aifei should take a bath and change clothes earlier!" He turned around and strode towards the clean room.

"Hey..." Before Tang Wanning could say anything, Xia Houjue had already left.

"Okay." She spread her hands, "Let's just believe what you say!"

She turned and walked towards the clean room.

……

Washing up and lying on the bed, Tang Wanning stared blankly at the top of the tent, unable to tell what it was like, but feeling stuffy and out of breath.

Xia Houjue was lying on the other side with her arms under her pillow and her eyes closed, feeling a sense of loss in her heart as well.

He actually had to cheat to sleep with his wife, and he couldn't do anything.

This matter should be put in the past, I simply dare not even think about it, but now it actually happened to me, as expected, that sentence is right.

30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.

The night falls little by little, the second watch, the third watch, the moon shadow outside the window is mottled, and the insects are singing.

After an unknown amount of time, there were bursts of even breathing from her side, and Xia Houjue finally opened his eyes to take a good look at her.

With the bright moonlight coming in from the window, her eyelashes were extraordinarily long, casting a small fan-like shadow on her cheeks.

Her high nose bridge is exquisite and majestic, her almond eyes are slightly closed, and her cherry lips are soft and moist, like a pair of cherries that have just fallen.

Without the flailing teeth and paws of the day, without the extreme resistance, her sleeping face is much gentler, which makes him a little unaccustomed to it.

He stretched out his hard palm to touch her face, but he was afraid of breaking the rare picture.

In the end, he could only turn sideways and just look at her like that.

Some people seem to be overwhelmed at the first glance, and then they become exhausted.

And some people hate it before they meet, but they finally come to their hearts.

Xia Houjue saw her frowning and wriggling her beautiful lips, as if she had dreamed of something sad.

Finally, he couldn't help stretching out his big palm to gently smooth her frowning eyebrows.

"Wan Wan!"

When Tang Wanning woke up the next day, there was still no one in front of her eyes.

She got up and saw that the pajamas on her body were intact, she was relieved, but seeing that there was another underwear in her hand, she felt like crying.

"This morning, I made a mistake again and held him back?" She looked at Biyue who was fetching water.

"Master, don't you know?" She sneered and covered her mouth.

"Then what did Xia Houjue say?" Tang Wanning looked embarrassed.

"Not really, but the crown prince said, master, you have to make some more coats for him when you have time, as there are not many left in Chongming Palace."

"..." Tang Wanning was even more embarrassed, and didn't say anything after all.

It's just that I wonder in my heart, why do I always talk about other people's clothes? This problem needs to be corrected.

at the same time.

In the court hall, Xia Houjue, who had just finished reporting on the political affairs of the household department, suddenly had an itchy nose and sneezed.

He stared blankly, then smiled.

Most likely some people are scolding themselves behind their backs, but it doesn't matter.

Now that she has entered his Yuqing Palace and became his first wife, can she escape?

One day he will let her lie obediently in his arms, willing to have no complaints or regrets.

……

In the court hall, Emperor Jingyuan was still very haggard, while the officials standing in the main hall kept silent as if they had taken dumb medicine, trying to reduce their sense of existence as much as possible.

"Retire if there is nothing to do!" Li Baoyuan shouted.

The officials below are still indifferent, and everyone understands it in their hearts.

The emperor is in a bad mood now, if there is no good news to report, it is better not to make a sound, otherwise the skin will peel off if you don't die.

Emperor Jing Yuan lost his mood when he looked at the silent officials.

Immediately waved his hand, got up and left.

"Retire!" Li Baoyuan shouted and left in a hurry.

Everyone in the main hall finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone wiped the sweat from their foreheads, gave each other a comforting look, and walked out in twos and threes.

……

Xia Houjue, who rejected everything related to the Prince Chen case, leisurely returned to Yuqing Palace, and went to practice archery with his wife.

As for whether the father would favor Xia Houyan, and to what extent, he was not interested at all.

Tang Wanning did not understand this.

"Aren't you afraid that the emperor won't punish him at all, or even suppress this matter?"

Xia Houjue smiled faintly while teaching her how to hold the arrow.

"It's not impossible, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Gu!"

"Why has nothing to do with you? You don't want to gain something from the game you set up?"

"Think about it, haven't you already gained something?"

"What harvest?"

"Trust, father's trust!" Xia Houjue was very calm.

"After this incident, even if the emperor suppresses the matter, he will no longer trust the queen unconditionally!" This is what he wanted.

As for the others, he has never thought about it, and it is unlikely to be realized.

A centipede is dead but not stiff. As long as the Qin family has not collapsed, the queen will still be the queen.

This matter needs to be taken slowly and must not be rushed.
