"It's rare that I can go on an expedition with my wife. I can finally get rid of the misunderstanding the people of Ancestral Dragon City have about me," Zhu Minglang said with a sigh of relief.
Living off a woman?
Humph!
People of Zu Long City State, take a good look. I, Zhu Minglang, am a heavenly talent. Your Highness and I are a match made in heaven. Those admirers, those drooling over me, you can all give up on that idea from today onwards!
"Young master, do your best. Everyone in Ancestral Dragon City will look at you in a different light!" Shuang Er, who had come to pour tea for Zhu Minglang, heard what Zhu Minglang said. She immediately clenched her small fists and cheered for him.
In Ancestral Dragon City, the once hottest topic had yet to die down, especially after Li Yunzi gradually consolidated her authority and had a say in the dynasty. Those followers and admirers still felt that Zhu Minglang was a toad who had picked up a fairy. Even if someone told them that Zhu Minglang was the only young master of the Zhu Family, it was useless. He was just a useless disciple born in a good family. In short, he was not worthy!
No matter how famous he was outside, if he did not display his skills in Ancestral Dragon City, it would not be convincing.
Zhu Minglang felt that he should use this expedition to show the people of Ancestral Dragon City how brave and powerful he was!
"Don't pay attention to what people say outside." Li Yunzi did not care about public opinion at all.
"I also want to save face, my wife," Zhu Minglang said.
"My lady, you don't know how unpleasant those people outside are. Young master is obviously very outstanding, and they turn a deaf ear to the matters of the Extreme Court Continent. They are all frogs at the bottom of the well, but they are still shouting loudly. You should teach them a lesson and make them stop. Besides, many of your guards are from the common people. If they join the army with such thoughts, even if you are usually dignified in the army, they will still gossip behind your back, "Shuang Er said seriously.
Li Yunzi was deep in thought.
Zhu Minglang nodded in agreement.
The people of Li Chuan did not know much about what was going on outside. Besides, no faction would be so free as to advertise themselves. They had to build their own reputation. Zhu Minglang should also establish his prestige in Ancestral Dragon City!
Moreover, Li Yunzi's army had quite a number of experts. When these people went to war, they would often follow Li Yunzi around. It was possible that some of them would have other thoughts. Thus, he had to make them give up!
"Alright. We will go to the North Mountain together." Li Yunzi nodded.
In the first place, there would be other forces overseeing the expedition this time. The people of the Distant Mountain Sword Sect would definitely accompany them.
…
Unfortunately, Shuang Er had prepared an extra pillow for Zhu Minglang, which meant that Zhu Minglang would be staying here. In the end, Li Yunzi was still too shy …
After dinner, Zhu Minglang went to the back mountain of the courtyard to feed the dragon. When he came back, he found Li Yunzi resting with her eyes closed. Her quiet and elegant temperament did not seem like a decisive female ruler at all. She had slender eyelashes, a straight nose, red lips, and black hair that fell to her slender waist.
Her flawless face was so beautiful that it was easy to be intoxicated and infatuated with just a few glances. Her figure was so graceful and graceful. Her pure and holy temperament revealed a stunning charm. Even if one could not bear to profane her, they also wanted to wantonly possess her!
Putting aside the fact that she was an Empress, just her beauty alone was hard to find. The more places he went and the more people he saw, the more he felt that his wife, who was wise, brave, serene, and beautiful, was the one who made his heart beat faster. It definitely had nothing to do with that night of entanglement!
"Young Master?" Her eyelashes trembled slightly. Her eyes were filled with joy. This stunning beauty opened her eyes. A smile slowly blossomed on her serene and gentle face. She was so beautiful that it was indescribable.
Zhu Minglang was intoxicated at first. Then, he suddenly realized that this name …
Prophet's sister-in-law???
When did this person change?!
Could it be that when he stared at her and revealed his infatuation, passion, and strong possessiveness, he was already Li Xinghua?!
"Cough cough, is it Xing Hua?" Zhu Minglang hurriedly covered up his undisguised behavior.
What a sin!!
Why were there two souls in the same body?
And why did Yunzi fall asleep without any warning and Li Xinghua wake up?
"Young Master has been here for quite some time?" Li Xinghua glanced at the teacup, then at the sky outside.
Zhu Minglang took a deep breath and tried to speak as calmly as possible, "I arrived at noon and came back not long ago."
He chatted with Li Xinghua for a while.
She did not mention anything about the Dragon Gate, but Zhu Minglang felt that she probably knew more than Li Yunzi.
The night grew darker. Because Li Xinghua had woken up, Zhu Minglang stayed in the room for a while longer.
When it was almost time to wash up and sleep, Shuang 'er mysteriously came over and whispered to Zhu Minglang, "Young Master, do you want to ask Miss Xing Hua? Maybe she'll be willing to let you stay the night?"
Good idea!
Zhu Minglang's eyes lit up.
However, when he looked at the pure and flawless Li Xinghua, he felt that it was too despicable of him to be opportunistic. After all, Li Xinghua's body and mind belonged to her …
While Zhu Minglang was thinking, Shuang 'er ran into the boudoir as if she was preparing something.
"Shuang 'er, what are you preparing?" Li Xinghua asked curiously when she sensed that something was amiss.
"A pillow. Since Young Master is back, we can't let him sleep on the streets. This mandarin duck pillow is soft and comfortable," Shuang 'er said.
When Li Xinghua heard this, her white cheeks immediately blushed. Her beautiful eyes looked around in panic. After a while, she said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Yunzi might not wake up tonight. Shuang 'er … Prepare another blanket. I'm … I'm very sorry, Young Master, I woke up so suddenly …"
Li Xinghua's ears were red. Her tone was somewhat guilty and apologetic. Clearly, she thought that she had disturbed Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi's intimate moment.
"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I was planning to leave after dinner, but Miss Li Xinghua happened to wake up. I had a great time chatting with you and forgot what time it was. I've disturbed you for too long. Shuang 'er mistakenly thought that I was going to spend the night here. It's my fault …" Zhu Minglang said to Li Xinghua, who was stuttering due to embarrassment, with tears in his eyes.
"It's my fault. I'm a dead person, and I'm residing in Yunzi's body as a soul … If it was in the past, I wouldn't have woken up for too long. I shouldn't have disturbed the two of you, but for some reason, I've been waking up for longer and longer. Yunzi and I can't control it," Li Xinghua said, feeling even more guilty.
"Miss Li Xinghua, please don't say things like that. You've always been alive in my heart. Every time I chat with you, it's like I'm talking to a close friend. Yunzi and I are still getting to know each other. We haven't reached the stage where we can sleep on the same bed yet. It's my fault for staying too long at night," Zhu Minglang said.
After finishing his sentence, Zhu Minglang was worried that Li Xinghua would still feel guilty. He quickly rose to his feet and walked out of the courtyard with his head held high like a sage.
However, for some reason, tears rolled down from the corner of his eyes.
He really wanted to be a beast, but how could he bear to blaspheme her!?
