"This…is fine!" Second Brother Jiang pondered for a while.""Get someone to bring this king's original words to Queen Shen Jiang. Tell him that His Majesty will leave the Lu Kingdom tomorrow.”As long as Queen Shen Jiang could accompany him to meet his mother in law, who was extremely disliked by a certain king, this was the hidden meaning behind Second Lord Jiang's words. Second Lord Jiang believed that Queen Shen Jiang would understand the meaning behind his words. However, when this silly head of guards heard Second Brother Jiang's words, he almost went forward to cover Second Brother Jiang's mouth. These people were careful in everything they did under Queen Shen Jiang's strict punishment. If this continued, the palace would become lifeless.
However, after this incident, the head of the guards began to doubt Second Brother Jiang's words.
The head of the guards thought about it and slowly pondered. He still did not believe Second Brother Jiang's words. However, since the King had asked him to bring it to the Empress, he would bring it. There was no need to ask more questions with many uncultured doubts. Ever since he heard the news that a certain queen had summoned him, Second Brother Jiang had been in a heavy mood for the whole afternoon. He had been sitting on the second floor of Liuhua's Building, looking at the entrance of Liuhua's Building, waiting for Queen Shen Jiang to return. He was afraid that his queen would be abducted by his mother-in-law! The queen of the Shen family did not want Shen Jiang to marry her. She could not stand Yin Jiao's matchmaker anymore and wanted to marry the peach blossom girl to Yin Jiao. She was still unwilling to give up on this decision after being married for so long! Was there anything good in coming to the Lu Kingdom? He, Second Brother Jiang, was slippery?
Queen Shen Jiang, will you come back? However, after waiting for so long that he fell asleep, he still did not see Queen Shen Jiang."King, go to bed and sleep! You'll catch a cold in this wind." Second Brother Jiang was woken up by the voice of the maid, Little Qing. He didn't expect to fall asleep after standing in front of me. In the dark night, the entrance of Liuhua Villa was pitch black and nothing could be seen. The first thing he did was to look in the direction of the Cyan Phoenix Hall. However, there were no lanterns in the hall. The majestic hall was dark and silent, which made Second Brother Jiang's heart turn cold.
"Has the Queen never returned?”The maid Xiao Qing seemed to sigh deeply." The Empress has a heavy responsibility on her shoulders, and there are many things to do!”The servants of the prince's mansion seemed to be very understanding. They spoke tactfully and did not hurt people's hearts. Second Brother Jiang laughed at himself in his heart. Second Brother Jiang, if you don't rely on yourself, who are you showing off to? The little peach blossom must have gone out again. She didn't even stay when her husband came back. Wake up! In a month at most, she would be back to Chaoge as a hostage, just like Ji Chang. She had not even greeted Shen Jiang for nearly half a year. She must be so angry that she could not even remember how many months she had been pregnant.
Second Brother Jiang took a deep breath. They couldn't share the same bed anyway, or perhaps she didn't want him to see her pregnant figure go out of shape. She was hiding from him. He thought about the good and the bad. He couldn't figure it out, so he didn't seem so disappointed anymore. He gave himself a strong encouragement in his heart. Hmph! She went to bed and covered herself with the blanket. She slept until dawn. When the sun reached his butt, Second Brother Jiang gradually woke up.
Blocked by the piercing morning light, Second Brother Jiang slowly opened his eyes that had turned black from tossing and turning. When he saw the red sun hanging high in the sky outside the window, Second Brother Jiang suddenly jumped up from the bed. Since I, Second Brother Jiang, also have times when I oversleep.
Yesterday, the head of the guards had said that the person sent by the empress of a certain king in the Hall of Longevity had asked him to go over at seven in the morning. It was already the sun, but no one had woken him up. These palace maids were also spoiled to the point of not knowing where to go! He had long known that the Longevity Palace Hall was inconvenient to travel to and from. It was very troublesome to be late for his first meeting with his mother-in-law, so he found an excuse to kill himself. Second Brother Jiang stood on the ground, looking for his clothes without any reason. The maid, Little Qing, seemed to have heard the sound of Second Brother Jiang getting up, so she came up with some washing things. The smile on her face was like a roasted pig's head, happier than when she saw her lover."Little Qing, you didn't wake me up. What time is it now?”
"What time?" " Eh…" Second Brother Jiang slapped his forehead and said," What time is it?!"”Qing Zhu didn't answer Second Brother Jiang's question, but the happy smile from before came again. She put everything in her hands away and stood upright by the window. She crossed her hands in front of her and deliberately coughed dryly. She pouted her mouth towards the curtain and said with a smile,"King, look, who is here?”
Puzzled, Second Brother Jiang walked to the window and glanced downstairs. Oh my god! He was dumbfounded. Was he seeing things? His Queen Shen Jiang? It was actually Queen Shen Jiang! When did this girl come back? The morning light filled the sky. It was like a huge jade plate hanging above the Green Phoenix Hall. The entire Liuhua Building was covered in the brilliant light. It was so magnificent that people couldn't open their eyes.
However, what was even more beautiful than the glow was his family's Queen Shen Jiang, who was sitting firmly in Liuhua's small building with a noble temperament. However, her figure was still a little out of shape. It was unknown how many months it had been. No wonder she was avoiding him. Queen Shenjiang was sitting quietly in Liuhua Villa, drinking tea. She was wearing a light purple dress embroidered with phoenixes. She did not wear a jade belt around her waist after she became pregnant. She was clean and spotless. Her black hair was like three thousand pieces of black silk, without a single knot, and it gently fell on her shoulders. She elegantly and slowly raised the teacup to her lips.
The scene was so beautiful that no one dared to open their eyes to look at it. It was as if looking at it any longer was blasphemy against the god-like noble woman. Second Brother Jiang was so stunned that he even drooled. The maid, Little Qing, looked at Second Brother Jiang and covered her lips with a smile."King? The Queen has returned from her mother-in-law's place to pick you up!”"Ah?" Second Brother Jiang came back to his senses and wiped the drool on his chin in embarrassment. He shouted,"My queen! Wait." He ran downstairs.
The maid behind him, Little Qing, was shocked. Your leg…"
"Queen Shen Jiang, my wife is finally back? You're finally back!" The thought of Queen Shen Jiang coming back and accompanying him to the Longevity Palace and not having to face his mother-in-law alone made Second Lord Jiang very excited. For a moment, he threw everything to the back of his mind. After all, his mother-in-law didn't even come to his wedding! He was definitely not satisfied with himself.
However, the moment he stood in front of Queen Shen Jiang and smelled the familiar ambergris on her body, Second Brother Jiang lowered his head and only cared about his own thoughts. Naturally, he did not see the reaction of the onlookers.
The moment the guards saw Second Brother Jiang, they were stunned and turned around quickly. Queen Shenjiang raised her eyes and glanced at Second Brother Jiang. Her ten-thousand-year-old glacial face frowned tightly. Second Brother Jiang was only wearing his undergarments. He was barefooted, his hair was messy, and there was drool on his face. Perhaps he did not wipe it clean just now, so he came down without any image. Was King Lu really that reckless? Second Brother Jiang seemed to have realized that he had destroyed his worldview.
"You have one hour to clean up, or you will get out of Liuhua Villa!”Queen Shen Jiang was obsessed with looks and mysophobia. She had a disgusted expression on her face and did not want to look at Second Brother Jiang anymore."Yes, sir! My wife." Second Brother Jiang felt relieved. He turned around and ran towards Liuhua Villa. If one were to say how uncomfortable he was at this moment, one could see it at a glance from his posture.
Back in Liuhua's bedroom, Second Brother Jiang's heart was still pounding. The handmaidens Little Qing and Lvli had prepared clothes for him, but his mind was not on these things at the moment. Second Brother Jiang did not know if Queen Shen Jiang knew that Ji Yi had saved him. Back then, they had agreed not to have anything to do with Ji Yi. Shen Jiang had ignored him for so long. He was probably guessing her husband. In the end, Second Brother Jiang encouraged himself firmly. At this moment, Queen Shen Jiang definitely did not know about Ji Yi's soul-stirring words in the main hall. Otherwise, with Queen Shen Jiang's strong aura and domineering killing intent, he would have sent him to the King of Hell long ago. His cultivation was far inferior to his Queen Shen Jiang's.
"Yes, Queen Shen Jiang. She definitely doesn't know!" Second Brother Jiang nodded fiercely.”"King, what are you talking about? What did the Queen know?”The maid, Little Qing, was puzzled. "No, it's nothing." Second Brother Jiang came back to his senses.”The maid, Little Qing, did not dwell on this matter too much. She placed two very beautiful red hairpins in front of Second Brother Jiang and said,"Your Majesty, which hairpin do you like better? The Queen said that she wanted the King to choose for her!”
The Queen's eyes, face, nose, mouth, eyebrows, and skin were all very beautiful. Coupled with the embroidered phoenix crepe skirt, it was elegant and beautiful. Without a belt, you look even more tired and sad! It seemed like it was a little unnecessary to add on to these extra and gorgeous jewelry. Moreover, Shen Jiang usually did not like to wear these things.
He did not choose the two overly complicated red hairpins in the hands of the maid, Xiao Qing. Instead, he chose a simple purple jade tassel hairpin from the jewelry box and gave it to Shen Jiang."This one!" Queen Shen Jiang had given him an hour, and Second Brother Jiang had basically stepped out of Liuhua Villa. With the firm affirmation from before, he thought that Queen Shen Jiang did not know that Ji Yi had pleaded for him. However, Ji Yi's wonderful speech had already spread all over the world. How could his queen not know? What was there to be afraid of? They were already an old couple, yet they were still playing jealous?
Standing in front of Queen Shen Jiang, he was not as timid as before. He also remembered that he was the one who decided the matter in the back garden of the palace and did not discuss it with Shen Jiang. He wondered if Shen Jiang would mind. However, he still felt guilty and uncomfortable. He had said that he would leave all this to the queen, but he didn't help.
"Wifey, I'm done packing! Do you think I passed the exam?" Queen Shenjiang raised her head from her cup and stared at Second Brother Jiang. After a while, she stood up and walked out of Liuhua's small building without saying anything to Second Brother Jiang. This woman was really good at acting cool! Second Brother Jiang was instantly disappointed. When would this ice face thaw? How boring. Would it kill him to give his husband a good review? What was it that made him so cold? "So-so!" After a while, he heard these words.
However, Qing Zhu, who was standing at the entrance of Liuhua's Building, was watching Second Brother Jiang and Queen Shenjiang leave Liuhua's Building one after another. It covered its mouth and giggled. Her queen was trying to show off her might! How could he manage such a big country without power? Second Brother Jiang, you've never worried about him. You're always eating, drinking, and gambling in Zhaoge!
"Queen Shen Jiang, that silly child. For so many years, many handsome young masters have admired beauties, but she has never once looked at those people. The way she looked at Second Brother Jiang just now, hahaha, it was as if her eyeballs were about to fall out.”Second Brother Jiang followed Queen Shenjiang out of Liuhua Villa. However, the head of the guards had actually prepared a carriage. Wouldn't these guards have to walk?
Queen Shen Jiang didn't say a word to Second Brother Jiang and went straight to the carriage. Second Brother Jiang sneakily stood in front of the carriage. He stared at the curtain of the carriage that was marked with the symbol of the palace and felt conflicted. With so many people following him, how long would he be wandering around? Could it be that he wouldn't be late for his first meeting with his mother-in-law? However, it was still very heartwarming for the two of them to be together. It was good to slow down!
He was no longer afraid of Queen Shenjiang, but the aura of this woman in his family was too strong.
It was only a short distance from Liuhua Villa to the door. Although he was following his queen, he was already suppressed by her cold and aloof aura. Now, he actually wanted to sit in the same carriage as her. Wouldn't he be suppressed to death? When will the sky clear up after the rain? He wondered if his wife had arranged for any chess pieces to follow him about Chaoge. However, it seemed that Second Brother Jiang had never done anything wrong to her. "Second Brother Jiang, come up!" Queen Shenjiang's slightly impatient and angry voice came from the carriage.
Second Brother Jiang trembled violently. The head of the guards didn't seem to have considered Second Brother Jiang's convenience, and the stool he prepared was a little short. Shen Jiang stretched out his hand and Second Brother Jiang rolled onto the carriage. The interior of this cool and luxurious carriage was very spacious and luxuriously furnished. Second Brother Jiang sighed in his heart."My queen is so extravagant. It will cost this king a lot of money, right?”She lowered her head and entered the car, carefully sitting beside Shen Jiang.
Shen Jiang's face was still frozen on the way. He was very serious. Second Brother Jiang sat quietly in the car without saying a word and did not dare to move. This woman's aura was too oppressive. She had a serious problem with cold violence! Second Brother Jiang sighed in his heart. Shen Jiang immediately hugged him. Second Brother Jiang was frightened."There's a baby. Don't crush it, okay?”
It was unknown how long this romance lasted, but the guard's voice came from outside,""Your Majesty, we have arrived at the main street in front of the Longevity Palace. In front of us is the Longevity Palace where the empress of a certain king is temporarily staying.”Queen Shenjiang was still in Second Brother Jiang's arms. She didn't raise her head or speak. But the guards outside did not seem to expect an answer from Queen Shen Jiang. Second Brother Jiang clenched his hands tightly in his wide sleeves. His palms were full of cold sweat. It was not a good thing to accidentally hurt the baby.
It was not because he was nervous about meeting a certain king, but because he was intimidated by the invisible pressure around Queen Shenjiang along the way. They had finally arrived at the Longevity Palace. They could finally be freed. Second Brother Jiang let out a deep breath. However, for some reason, the horse driving the carriage outside suddenly let out a surprised neigh as if it had been fed a stimulant. Immediately after, the luxurious custom-made carriage, which was originally moving steadily, began to shake violently as if it had taken illegal drugs and was driving at a high speed.
Second Brother Jiang, who was sitting at the door of the carriage, lost his balance and suddenly fell onto Queen Shen Jiang, who was inside the carriage. The carriage was neither small nor big. Queen Shen Jiang did not have the time to dodge. Second Brother Jiang's calf hit the small table in the car and he felt a sudden pain. He did not know what he had grabbed under his hand, but it was soft. He instinctively clenched it and cried out. At the same time, he clearly felt Queen Shenjiang's body tense up. However, she didn't pay much attention to it in her panic.
After a long while, the frightened horse was subdued by the guards, and the carriage stabilized. Second Brother Jiang seemed to have realized that he was lying on Queen Shenjiang's body and frowned fiercely.
"Wifey, that…I didn't do it on purpose just now…I…didn't hurt the baby, right?”" Eh…" Second Brother Jiang tried his best to explain, but it seemed that there was something wrong with the Iceberg Queen's expression. Not only that, but her body was like a wooden stake, and she looked very nervous. Did he see wrongly? Even the bad-tempered Queen Shenjiang had such an expression.
Suddenly, there was a " boom " in his mind. Second Brother Jiang seemed to have realized something. He slowly lowered his head and looked at the girl he was holding." Ah…" In the next second, she was grabbed by the furious Queen Shen Jiang and thrown out of the car. That was love, not abuse. Second Brother Jiang, do you know that?
After Second Brother Jiang fell to the ground, his entire body was in pain. But he didn't dare to complain. The thought of the thing that he was desperately clutching was a nightmare."Aiyo, why did this King fly down from the carriage like this?”
"His Majesty's etiquette to his mother-in-law is really different! Unfortunately, the Queen of a certain king had yet to come out!”
"That's right, our king is indeed different!”For some reason, the entrance of the Hall of Longevity was already crowded with people. The onlookers were pointing and laughing."Your Majesty, are you alright?" A guard came forward to see Second Brother Jiang. "If you climb down like this, you'll know if there's anything wrong with it!”Second Brother Jiang was in so much pain that he frowned. Shen Jiang lifted his hand and made sure that his arm and leg were not broken. He forced a smile and said,"It's fine, this king won't die for the time being! My wifey is too overbearing. She doesn't know how to take pity on her husband. It's enough to let others see wifey's might.”
