"Your sister."

"Oh." Mo Lan suddenly realized, "It turns out to be her. I heard that she is very beautiful. She is the most beautiful woman in Nanxia Kingdom."

Chu Mohan frowned and said nothing.

Chu Wanxiang stayed alone on the couch in a daze.

Qingmei came in with medicine to wait on her, and called in a low voice: "Mother, it's time to drink the medicine."

Chu Wanxiang raised his eyes and glanced at the tray in Qingmei's hand, which contained a dark soup that exuded a bitter taste.

She frowned and said, "I won't drink anymore."

"Your Majesty..." Qingmei said in surprise, "This medicine is a tonic prescribed by the imperial doctor. It must be taken three times a day. Have you forgotten?"

"I don't have the appetite to eat now." Chu Wanxiang said, "Put it down. I'll drink it after a while."

Qingmei had no choice but to put the medicine bowl on the table: "I will help you lie down and rest for a while."

Chu Wanxiang closed his eyes to rest, but a vague picture appeared in his mind.

The picture shows a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with a double-ringed bun and a water-red dress. She looks pretty and cute.

Chu Wanxiang opened his eyes and found himself lying on a strange bed. There was a bottle of wine on the table next to him. Various paintings were hung on the surrounding walls. The girls in the paintings seemed to be the same person.

She looked at the flying snowflakes outside the window, with a faint smile on her lips and moist eyes.

"What did you say?" Chu Wanxiang's eyes widened suddenly, "His Royal Highness is unwilling to take a concubine?"

Qingmei lowered her eyes: "The Emperor said that he doesn't like the three thousand beauties in the harem, not to mention that the Crown Princess is pregnant. The Emperor said...said..."

"What did your father say?" Chu Wanxiang asked eagerly.

"The Crown Princess already has a child, and the Emperor will not allow the Crown Prince to have another concubine," Qingmei replied.

"How can your father be so partial to the prince!" Chu Wanxiang slammed the table angrily, "He clearly knows that the prince has not touched me at all!"

"The Emperor said that the heir is important and the Crown Princess cannot be delayed by such trivial matters." Qingmei lowered her head, "Princess, His Highness the Crown Prince is not a mortal after all. Even if he does not touch you, you are pregnant with the Crown Prince.

If your Highness's flesh and blood are known to someone with ulterior motives, I'm afraid they will do you harm."

Chu Wanxiang gritted his teeth, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

"Crown Princess, although the Emperor loves you, you also know that the Emperor is not an ordinary man, he is the master of the world. There are countless women in the harem, and you will always get tired of it. How can His Highness, the Crown Prince, stay with you for the rest of your life?" Qingmei continued.

Persuade.

Chu Wanxiang was silent for a moment: "You mean you want me to abort the child?"

Qingmei was startled and shook her head quickly: "The Crown Princess cannot do anything about it. If you abort the child, His Highness the Crown Prince will hate you to death!"

Chu Wanxiang sneered, "You don't have to lie to me. The royal heirs are so precious. How can the father be willing to abort them? If I abort his child, he will definitely not let it go."

Qingmei lowered her head, "Then what should you do?"

Chu Wanxiang stared at her for a moment and suddenly stretched out his hand.

Qingmei was stunned and looked at her in disbelief: "Mother, you..."

Chu Wanxiang raised her lips and smiled, "I just want to tell you that if I want to abort the child, you can't stop me."

Qingmei's face turned pale, and she knelt down in panic to apologize.

Chu Wanxiang stood up, walked around her, walked slowly to the door, stopped, turned his head slightly, and looked at the maid kneeling on the ground.

"Princess, have mercy on me." Qingmei said tremblingly.

"Since you are so loyal, I will keep your life for now." Chu Wanxiang said coldly, "But you should also know that I don't like others to betray me."

Qingmei kowtows repeatedly: "I know I was wrong."

"Go away."

"Thank you, empress! Thank you, empress!" Qingmei crawled out of the palace, her heart still beating wildly.

At that moment, she thought she was going to die.

Fortunately, the Crown Princess was kind and did not kill her.

"Mother, will Your Highness the Crown Prince come tonight?"

"I don't know." Chu Wanxiang leaned lazily on the soft pillow, "He should come. After all, he owes me an explanation."

When Chu Mohan stepped into the East Palace, Chu Wanxiang was eating grapes.

She has a slender figure, beautiful appearance, and her skin is as white as jade, which can be broken by blows. Every move she makes is elegant and dignified. After eating the grapes, she wipes the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief. When she sees him coming, she smiles and greets him softly: "Husband

.”

Chu Mohan walked up to her, stared at her for a moment, and said, "What's your name?"

"My name is Wanxiang." Chu Wanxiang smiled softly.

"Chu Wanxiang." Chu Mohan repeated her name, "Is this really your name?"

"Yes." Chu Wanxiang nodded, "I was born into a poor family. My father named me Xiang, so my mother named me Wanxiang."

Chu Mohan nodded: "You are indeed like the evening breeze by the Xiangjiang River."

"Really?" Chu Wanxiang said with a full smile, "Husband, you are so complimentary. Husband, please sit down quickly."

Chu Mohan sat next to her, looked at her gentle and smiling eyes, sighed softly, stretched out his hand to hold her shoulders, took her into his arms, hugged her and said, "Wan Xiang, I'm sorry, it's my fault.

Got you."

Chu Wanxiang nestled against his chest, listening to the familiar heartbeat. Tears finally couldn't help but well up in her eyes. She choked and said, "I'm sorry. I don't blame you. It's just that I wasn't considerate enough and made you unhappy."

Chu Mohan kissed her forehead: "It's my fault, it's my fault that I don't respect you enough."

Chu Wanxiang raised her head and looked at his handsome and resolute face, feeling pain in her heart, "Husband, can we make peace?"

Chu Mohan pondered for a moment and softly said "Yes".

Chu Wanxiang immediately burst out with a bright smile, "Thank you, husband! You are the best!"

Chu Mohan touched her cheek and said in a gentle tone, "Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry." Chu Wanxiang pulled his sleeve and said coquettishly, "You are not allowed to leave. Can you stay with me?"

"good."

It was late at night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, Chu Wanxiang fell asleep, her peaceful little face looked a little sickly pale, Chu Mohan sat beside the bed, looking at her sleeping face, his eyes gradually became dark.

During these days, every time he missed her, he would come here and talk to her, as if she was still around.

After coming back this time, she seemed to have lost some weight and looked haggard and weak, but she was still so fresh and beautiful. How could he bear to leave her alone?

He leaned over and kissed her lips, stood up and left.

"Queen." Upon seeing this, the maid guarding the door bowed respectfully, "Are you looking for a slave?"

Chu Wanxiang nodded: "Go and check something."

"Queen, please give me your instructions." The palace maid lowered her head and waited for the instructions.

"Which maid did the emperor summon to bed last night?" Chu Wanxiang asked calmly.

The palace maid replied: "Your Majesty only summoned Concubine De."

"Concubine De?" Chu Wanxiang frowned, "Who is Concubine De?"

"This is the newly appointed Zhaoyi. It is said that she is charming and charming, and is quite favored by His Majesty, so she was promoted to concubine."

Chu Wanxiang snorted coldly: "Your Majesty is already quite old. He has three thousand beauties in the harem, but he still misses Zhaoyi."
