Qi Yalian's feet suddenly stopped and she looked up at Liu Mingzhi in astonishment.
"Ah? Chengzhi?"
Qi Ya originally thought that her husband would raise the matter of appointing a prince and crown prince in a more subtle way, but she never expected that her husband's question would be so straightforward.
Liu Mingzhi also stopped and saw the astonishment in the beauty's beautiful eyes, and instinctively frowned.
"What? Sister Ya, do you think this guy Chengzhi is not suitable?"
Hearing Liu Mingzhi's inquiry, Qi Ya came back from her surprise. Seeing her husband's brows slightly furrowed and his expression confused, she hurriedly shook her head a few times.
"No, no, I don't mean that, that's not what I mean."
"Sister Ya, what about you?"
Qi Ya raised her jade hands to straighten the cloak on Young Master Liu, raised her eyes to look at Young Master Liu and said with a wry smile: "Husband, at first I thought you just wanted to ask me briefly. Which of the brothers Feng, Chengzhi and Chenggan is more suitable?
How could I have imagined that, husband, you would be so straightforward in asking me about my ears?
I didn’t react for a moment, so I couldn’t help being surprised.”
Seeing Qi Ya's slightly wry smile, Liu Mingzhi put his hand on the beauty's jade cheek and stroked it gently.
"I see, my husband thought that Sister Ya, you thought this boy Chengzhi was not suitable!"
Qi Ya shook her head silently, hugged Liu Mingzhi's arm in her arms again, and walked out of the courtyard with light steps.
"No, of course I won't think so."
Liu Mingzhi picked up a red lantern full of joy in front of the two of them and walked silently with the beautiful lady.
"Sister Ya, can you tell me your opinion now?"
Qi Ya bit her red lips lightly with her teeth, turned to look at Liu Mingzhi and said softly: "Do you want to appoint Chengzhi as the crown prince?"
Liu Mingzhi took a breath of hot breath and nodded noncommittally: "Huh~ That's right."
Qi Ya pondered for a moment with a tangled expression, and frowned involuntarily.
"Husband, what should I say to this question if you want me to be my concubine?
I finally understand. Why do you want me to help you with this?
You obviously want to embarrass me!"
Liu Mingzhi took out his arm from Qi Ya's arms and held the jade hand of her hand with his backhand: "Hehehe, Sister Ya, what's so embarrassing about this? Just say whatever you want."
Seeing her husband's relaxed look, Qi Ya immediately rolled her eyes pretending to be angry: "Oh, my good husband, because of this, I really don't know how to express myself better."
"Huh? Why?"
Qi Ya raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the main hall, sighing with a complicated expression.
"Oh, husband, please don't forget that I am Yun'er's biological sister and Chengzhi's biological aunt!
The relationship between the concubine, sister Yun'er and the child Chengzhi is really too close.
In this case, it is unfair to Chengfeng, Cheng Qian, Zhenghao, and the brothers below them that you ask me to help you refer to this matter.
Husband, aren't you afraid that I will be partial to this child Chengzhi?"
Liu Mingzhi shook his head without hesitation, looked at the beauty beside him seriously, and said with a slight smile, "Sister Ya, do you want to hear the truth, or do you want to hear lies?"
"Hmm? What about lies? What about truth?"
"The lie is, I'm not afraid."
Qi Ya raised her eyebrows, looked at her husband and asked softly: "What about the truth?"
Liu Mingzhi clasped the beauty's slender fingers tightly, looked at Qi Ya with sincere eyes and said cheerfully: "To tell the truth, I'm not afraid, not at all!"
Qi Ya glanced at Young Master Liu with a coquettish expression, and rolled her eyes angrily.
"Virtue means knowing how to say nice things to make me happy."
“Sister Hao Ya, what I say to my husband is from the bottom of my heart!
Sister Ya, it is precisely because my husband knows what kind of person you are that I discuss this issue with you without hesitation."
"But, husband, the two of us are discussing in private the issue of your wish to appoint Chengzhi as the crown prince. It is really unfair to Chengfeng, Cheng Qian, Zhenghao, Zhengran and their brothers.
I am afraid of myself, because I am afraid that because of Yun'er, I will involuntarily have some selfish thoughts."
Liu Mingzhi held the beauty's jade hand hard and looked at Qi Ya softly.
"Sister Ya, my husband believes in you and you will definitely not do this."
Hearing her husband's affirmative tone, Qi Ya was both moved and helpless as she rolled her eyes at Young Master Liu.
"Silly husband, do you really trust me that much?"
"Yes, my husband believes in you so much, more than I believe in myself.
Sometimes, even if my husband doubts himself, he will not doubt you at all, Sister Ya."
"It's silly. It's getting more and more outrageous the more you talk about it."
"Sister Ya, God can tell you that everything you tell your husband is the truth.
If you don't believe it, my husband will immediately swear to God in front of you.
If I, my husband, tell you a lie, I will give you a beating from heaven... um..."
Before Young Master Liu could finish his words, Qi Ya covered his lips.
Qi Ya gently let go of her jade hand, and gave Young Master Liu a fierce look with her beautiful eyes.
"No nonsense, got it?"
Seeing the angry look in the beauty's eyes, Liu Mingzhi nodded with an apologetic smile: "Hey, sister Haoya, I made a mistake, and I know I was wrong."
Qi Ya looked at her husband with an apologetic smile on his face, but still seemed to be upset. She directly used the two-finger Zen technique and twisted her fingers hard on the soft flesh of Liu Dashao's waist.
"Next time you dare to talk nonsense, I will be angry. Do you hear me clearly?"
"Hiss, yes, yes, husband, hear me clearly."
Qi Ya nodded slightly, and then released her slender jade fingers that were pinching the soft flesh of Young Master Liu's waist.
"That's pretty much it."
Liu Mingzhi took a few gentle breaths, held the beauty's hand and walked towards the long corridor ahead.
"Sister Ya, my husband said this, don't I just want you to know that what I said to my husband is all the truth!"
"Silly husband, I am not a fool, of course I understand what you mean.
It’s just that I just don’t want to hear those unlucky words from your mouth.”
"It's wrong for my husband, and it's wrong for my husband to know."
"Okay, I forgive you."
"Sister Hao Ya, what my husband just said was definitely not meant to make you happy.
I really believe in you more than I believe in myself.
Otherwise, my husband would not be able to talk to you so openly about the appointment of the crown prince and heir apparent."
Qi Ya smiled bitterly and nodded: "Husband, you want me to think about it."
"Sister Hao Ya, what is there to think about? As my husband, the answer I want to hear is your true words, your true words from the heart."
"Husband, what I said after thinking about it are also my true words from my heart."
Liu Mingzhi saw a group of maids approaching at the corner ahead, looked around, chuckled and nodded.
"Okay, then Sister Ya, just think about it first."
A group of maids carrying red lanterns saw the figures of Young Master Liu, Qi Ya and his wife, and hurriedly came up with the lanterns in their hands.
"Sisters, please see the young master and see the young madam."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, picked up the lantern in his hand and gestured with a smile.
"Well, everyone is free of charge."
"No gifts."
