When Zhang Qingjiu woke up from the couch, rubbing his waist, he discovered for the first time that Chu Lan was not there.
At this time, it was already three poles at night.
I touched the quilt next to me and found that it was still warm. The person had just left.
Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, with a sneer on his lips, pulled the quilt back over himself, turned around and fell asleep.
After a while, I heard the sound of the door opening slightly. The soles of the man's shoes were very soft, and the sound of walking was very soft, but in such a night where breathing was almost audible, there was nothing to hide.
What's more, it's someone who has been familiar with this for a long time and couldn't be more familiar with it, but also paid special attention to it?
The man walked to the bed, and as he drew closer and breathed, there was no sound of footsteps.
Zhang Qingjiu closed his eyes and breathed lightly, as evenly and peacefully as if he was sleeping.
After just a moment, she felt the quilt around her being pulled open, and then the familiar temperature and breath began to fill her nasal cavity.
Zhang Qingjiu never opened her eyes as the man behind him pulled her half into his arms.
One night, it seemed that I could not sleep until dawn.
As the first ray of dim light came in from the window, Zhang Qingjiu slowly opened his sleepy eyes. Without any surprise, he met the man's doting and smiling eyes, and
The corners of the lips raised slightly.
"Are you awake?" Chu Lan's voice was low and soft.
"Yeah." Zhang Qingjiu glanced at him and turned away.
Chu Lan was slightly startled. She had no doubt about it. She just thought that her behavior had offended her sweetheart. She immediately propped up half of her body with one hand, leaned over and gently patted Zhang Qingjiu on the shoulder, "Madam, yesterday was
It’s too much for your husband.”
Yes, yesterday, not last night.
After the dog man returned to the bedroom from the study, he pressed her on the bed for the whole day until she fell asleep directly.
Shaking his shoulders, Zhang Qingjiu turned around and glared at Chu Lan, "Are you so troubled?"
Chu Lan smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyebrows, "The emperor once said that proper movements can help the harmony between husband and wife and the growth of the fetus."
As he spoke, Chu Lan's hand reached under the quilt.
"???!!!"
The corner of Zhang Qingjiu's mouth twitched, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore. He slapped the claw away and burst out with his first heroic words after the couple got married, "Get out!"
Chu Lan suddenly froze, then laughed dumbly, and finally shook her head, "How can Madam be willing to give up?"
After a pause, he added, "Even if you get out, let me wait for my wife to change her clothes before you get out."
After that, without waiting for Zhang Qingjiu to answer, he picked up the person and the quilt again, took a long step, and walked straight towards the hot spring pool in the back room.
Gently putting the person in his arms into the steamy hot spring bath, Chu Lan also stepped in.
Zhang Qingjiu took advantage of that dog man with a calm look on his face. She was absolutely speechless this morning. Her mother opened the door for Wuyu and she got home.
Chu Lan didn't seem to notice Zhang Qingjiu's "rather unkind" gaze, so he naturally took the person into his arms and wiped her as usual.
Feeling the strong fingers on his body gently wiping, Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but half-squinted his eyes, with a somewhat lazy look at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Chu Lan secretly looked at the person in her arms. Seeing that she looked like a satiated cat, she couldn't help but laugh. She wrapped her fingers around the silk cloth and placed them on her slightly bulging belly, "It's been four months."
Fortunately, he and Ah Jiu's child is four months old.
Hearing these words, Zhang Qingjiu opened his eyes slightly and responded softly.
Chu Lan's eyes flashed, "Yesterday, my mother sent me a letter, saying that if we are free today, we can go to the palace."
Logically speaking, they should have gone to see each other on the second day of their wedding, and Chu Lan's three-day wedding period should have ended today. However, Chu Wei was lenient and granted the prince two more days off.
This matter is very reasonable no matter how you look at it emotionally and rationally.
However, this situation, after Chu Lan just said those words, was not reasonable at all.
Zhang Qingjiu's eyes did not change, he nodded, and said in agreement, "Okay."
After entering the palace, Murong Qingwan pulled her around and looked her around, and then couldn't help but hold her hand and go to the imperial garden to visit.
It was still some time before lunch. Chu Lan followed the two of them for a short distance and then paused. She thought of business and wanted to take this opportunity to go to the imperial study.
Murong Qingwan had always been unhappy with Chu Wei talking about state affairs in her palace. Firstly, she wanted her husband to stop bothering with documents when he came here. Secondly, she also didn't want her husband to be said to have let the harem do politics.
Therefore, when Chu Lan said this, she immediately nodded in understanding and said with a smile: "If you want to go, just go, I will go with Xiaojiu, and then I won't delay you and your wife's return home.
.”
After Chu Lan left, Murong Qingwan took Zhang Qingjiu's hand and curved her lips, "Let him go, we have a private conversation at our daughter's house."
"Okay." Zhang Qingjiu lowered his eyes and responded obediently.
Along the way, Murong Qingwan asked about the couple's daily life together in the past few days, and also asked whether Chu Lan was gentle and considerate. All she received was Zhang Qingjiu's "full of praise", and finally Murong Qingwan listened.
They couldn't help but shook their heads.
"You, don't indulge him." Murong Qingwan patted the back of Zhang Qingjiu's hand with some worry, "Although he is the prince, what kind of temper he is, how can I, a mother, not know how gentle he is?
Too much, not enough consideration.”
The corner of Zhang Qingjiu's mouth twitched, and he wanted to ask "How did he come to this conclusion?" Chu Lan was clearly "too considerate but not gentle enough" in some matters.
But in the end, she was too embarrassed to speak.
"Also, although it has been made known to the public that he will not take concubines, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be women who are working hard to climb up the ladder. I know that you, a child, may seem careless, but in fact he is the most kind-hearted. If you are not good at it, just tell me
, I will help you with the cooking." Murong Qingwan paused and continued.
Zhang Qingjiu: "???"
Where did your knowledge come from?
"You don't have to look at me like this." Facing Zhang Qingjiu's widened eyes, Murong Qingwan smiled hoarsely and said with great kindness, "You ignored yourself and saved the prince, so I know your true nature."
Hearing this, Zhang Qingjiu finally couldn't hold it back and coughed.
"Xiaojiu..." Murong Qingwan immediately became nervous when she heard Zhang Qingjiu coughing.
Zhang Qingjiu shook his head, "It's okay, I just choked on my saliva."
If she continued to hold it in, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold it in and laugh out loud.
What should she say?
Is it possible to tell the person in front of you that I am really not as tall as you think? The reason why I saved Chu Lan back then was because I wanted to get his body?
