"Brother Xiaobei, let's rest. I'm a little tired."
Seeing Liu Rumei undressing and undressing, Chen Xiaobei quickly stepped forward and extinguished the oil lamp.
Chen Xiaobei just sat quietly, waiting until Liu Rumei made no movement and was probably lying down, then he slowly walked to the bed and reached out to hug his quilt.
Suddenly her hand was held by Liu Rumei.
"Brother Xiaobei, just sleep here. Besides, we are already husband and wife, so what are you afraid of?"
Chen Xiaobei hesitated.
He didn't know if this was fair to Liu Rumei. It didn't matter that he was a man and had already married two wives.
Seemingly sensing Chen Xiaobei's hesitation, Liu Rumei continued, "Lie down, I want to hear you tell me the story of you and Huang Ying."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei felt relieved. Liu Rumei could say this, which meant that he would not do anything excessive to himself while lying down.
On second thought, Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt that he didn't seem to be in the right position. Shouldn't it be Liu Rumei who was worried that he had done something excessive at this moment? Why are you still afraid of falling in love?
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei simply took off his coat and lay down close to the bed.
As soon as he lay down, he felt the quilt move, and a wave of warmth pressed against his back.
Chen Xiaobei was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. "Rumei, don't be like this, I, I haven't thought about it yet."
Seeing Chen Xiaobei's lack of any reaction, Liu Rumei behind him sighed softly and shrank back.
"Brother Xiaobei, I offended you just now and I won't do it again. You can sleep peacefully."
Only then did Chen Xiaobei realize that Liu Rumei had actually tried to test him just now. Of course, if he took advantage of the situation and turned around to challenge Tai Chi properly with her, maybe Liu Rumei would not refuse, but just now he said that he could not let go of Huang Ying. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face to do that?
Thinking of this, he took the initiative and said, "Rumei, actually I regret it very much now. I shouldn't have married Huang Ying in the first place. If I said I wouldn't marry her, she wouldn't come to Wannian City with me, and maybe the ending wouldn't be the same. This is it now.”
After hearing this, Liu Rumei stretched out her hand and gently touched Chen Xiaobei's cheek, and said emotionally, "Brother Xiaobei, don't blame yourself. My master said that everything in the world has its destiny. Maybe Sister Huang Ying comes to you, Just to rush for this brief encounter with you."
Chen Xiaobei raised his hand to wipe the moisture from the corners of his eyes, "It's so cruel. Whenever I think of Huang Ying's voice and smile, my heart feels like it's been cut by a knife. If I hadn't brought her here, how wonderful it would have been." …”
Liu Rumei stepped forward and gently gave Chen Xiaobei a hug. The two hugged each other gently, and neither of them spoke again.
…
It was getting dim the next day, Chen Xiaobei, I opened my eyes and looked at Liu Rumei, who was still sleeping next to me. He quietly got up and put on his clothes, then walked out of the room and into the yard.
At this time, everything was quiet in the yard. A few servants were quietly arranging the tables and chairs that had not been cleared away last night. They moved them high and gently, making almost no sound.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming out, several servants quickly put down their work and greeted him.
Chen Xiaobei waved his hand and motioned for them to continue, while he himself walked around the front hall to the back garden.
I've been here for two days and haven't had time to take a good look at Fang Zheng's big house. I'm leaving soon. I want to get to know it well before I leave. It's not a waste of time to stay here.
The back garden was in a state of depression. It was already early winter after all, and all the flowers and plants in the flower pond were withered. There is already a thin layer of ice on the fish pond.
Looking at everything in front of him, Chen Xiaobei couldn't help but sigh.
It's like life. After a glorious summer, depression and defeat will always come.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps and he turned to look at Yang Chun.
Seeing Yang Chun, Chen Xiaobei waved.
Yang Chen stepped forward quickly, "Brother, before Liu Yuanwen left last night, he specifically told me to remind you to go and thank the emperor as soon as possible, so that we can leave Wannian City today."
Chen Xiaobei nodded. Princess Zhaoning also told him not to forget this before coming.
Of course, he also understood that this was the most important procedure for dealing with the emperor. After completing this matter, the emperor would feel at ease and at ease.
"Brother Yang, you're right. Finish this matter as soon as possible. We'd better leave this place of trouble and trouble as soon as possible. I'll go talk to Rumei later."
The two of them looked at the rockery for a while. At this time, Xiaoqing came over, bowed to Chen Xiaobei and said, "Uncle, Miss, please come over and discuss something."
Chen Xiaobei promised the doctor to quickly return to the temporary bridal chamber.
At this time, Liu Rumei had finished dressing up. When he saw Chen Xiaobei coming in, he showed a slightly shy smile.
"Brother Xiaobei, where were you this morning?"
"I see you went outside for some exercise before you woke up."
"Brother Xiaobei, we don't have anything else to do this morning. We have to go to the palace to thank the emperor first. Once this is done, we can leave Wannian City."
This coincided with his own thoughts, Chen Xiaobei nodded.
"In that case, let's go quickly. By the way, let's pack our things and leave here when we come back."
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and then the little girl's voice sounded outside the window.
"Brother Xiaobei, sister Rumei, His Highness the Crown Prince invites you."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
Liu Rumei looked surprised, "What's wrong with the prince? He has been to my place two days ago, and he also sent Zhou Quan here last night."
Nan Xiaobei frowned, "It must have nothing to do with our marriage, so let's go to the prince's place first, and then go to the emperor's place later."
The two of them changed out of their red wedding dresses and put on ordinary clothes, then wrapped the wedding dresses in a bag and put them in the sedan. Liu Rumei was the bride, so she had to ride in the sedan, so she could ride a horse.
Sure enough, the two people put on normal clothes and walked on the street without many people paying attention. The most important thing is that Chen Xiaobei is so unfamiliar. Even Chen Xiaobei, who saw the red wedding dress yesterday, Seeing him naked today, it was difficult to connect the two of them.
After arriving at the gate of the Prince's Mansion and listening to the announcement, Zhou Quan still came out to welcome him on behalf of the Prince.
There was not much greeting after the meeting, Zhou Quan just said softly, "Come with me, the prince has been waiting there for a long time."
After saying that, he turned around and left, leading the two of them straight to the prince's study.
As soon as Chen Xiaobei saw the two people brought here, his heart began to tighten. What was said in the study must be important, otherwise he would have gone to the reception hall long ago.
