Chapter 380 Husband and wife getting along
Li Mulan's face flushed. "You...will you admit that you are a slippery person? Chu Chenfeng, you are incredible. Your true colors are revealed as soon as you get married. Where did your reserve go? Your feelings are lying to me."
Chu Chenfeng grabbed her and slapped his hands with great strength, "I was just teasing you. I was wrong. Is it okay if I am wrong?"
"Hmph, that's pretty much it."
"Did Whisper tell you?"
Speaking of this, Li Mulan became dispirited again. The good things in front of her that she had just taken from Xuanming didn't seem to be so attractive to her anymore.
"Ah."
"Don't worry, I will secretly arrange for someone to protect you."
"I listened to what she said, but I'm still worried. What do you think of Situ Lian?"
A hint of coldness flashed across Chu Chenfeng's eyes. "Being able to endure for more than 20 years, this alone is not something that ordinary people can do."
Li Mulan also frowned, "How could this old Phoenix save such a disaster?"
"So, it's not easy for Qingyu to overturn the verdict on General Zhenbei. It requires... gradual progress."
Li Mulan was even more disappointed. "That means it will take a long time, right?"
Chu Chenfeng sighed, "Everyone has his or her own life, you can't control so many things."
"I know, I'm just worried."
"Okay, let's have dinner first. You have to eat a full stomach before doing anything."
Chu Chenfeng is leaving tomorrow, and he wants to spend more time with Li Mulan.
Li Mulan then realized that he came to have dinner with her even though he was so busy. Did he want to... accompany her?
"Are you done?"
"Well, it's all arranged."
"When do we leave tomorrow?"
"The beginning of the morning hour."
"So early? Then...is there anything that hasn't been prepared?" Li Mulan now realized that she was someone's wife. Her husband was going on a long journey, but she, as a wife, had not made any arrangements at all.
Seeing the cute little person in front of him looking a little bewildered, Chu Chenfeng smiled and pulled her back to sit down, "It's really arranged, don't worry."
Li Mulan was a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry. This is my first time being someone's wife. I'm not used to it yet. Haha, haha."
Chu Chenfeng smiled gently, "It's okay, this is my first time being a husband too, let's... adapt together."
"Puchi!" Li Mulan laughed out loud, "Then... shall we have dinner?"
"okay."
The two of them had a dull dinner, chatting while eating. Chu Chenfeng took care of her and served her food most of the time. This situation seemed particularly harmonious and fitting. The old housekeeper came and saw this situation, but he didn't want to disturb them and left with a smile.
"How long will it take you to get to the border this time?"
Chu Chenfeng paused, "It could be as short as a year and a half, or as long as three or five years. It's all possible."
At this point, the guilt in Chu Chenfeng's eyes became more obvious, "I'm sorry, Lan'er."
Li Mulan frowned, "Why do you always apologize to me?"
"I'm leaving right after I got married, and I'm going to be away for so long."
Li Mulan sighed, "Ah, there's nothing I can do. Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog."
Seeing her reaction, Chu Chenfeng pursed his lips and said nothing.
Li Mulan smiled and waved in front of his eyes, "I was just teasing you, are you really upset?"
Chu Chenfeng's eyes met hers, with some unknown emotions flashing in his eyes.
"Okay, I'm not angry, why do you keep apologizing to me? Besides, wasn't the marriage a joint decision? Are you afraid that I'll run away?"
"Afraid!" Chu Chenfeng looked at her with burning eyes.
The word "afraid" really stunned Li Mulan. She didn't expect that the Regent would actually be afraid.
"You..." She didn't know how to respond.
Chu Chenfeng smiled and pinched her face, "Are you full? Let's go out for a walk."
"Oh, I'm full."
Li Mulan was held by Chu Chenfeng and strolled in the garden of the palace.
"After I leave, if you are free, please go to the palace and help me look after Xiaojie. He... is still young after all."
"Of course, Xiaojie and I are friends. So, can I enter the palace as I please in the future?"
"Haha," Chu Chenfeng laughed in a low voice, "You are the regent princess, so of course you can do it. The prime minister's party has been dealt with, and there shouldn't be anyone who would mess with you. Do whatever you want, don't worry too much."
Li Mulan's eyes rolled, "Does this mean that I can walk sideways in Kyoto from now on?"
"Well, you can go any way you want."
"It sounds pretty cool." Li Mulan stroked her chin. She had been in the martial arts world for many years, and she could always rely on her master and senior brothers, and no one dared to provoke her. She didn't expect that now that she was in Kyoto, she could walk sideways, hehehe.
Seeing Li Mulan's cunning look, Chu Chenfeng found her cute. "From now on, you can do whatever you like. No one can say anything to you. You don't have to be constrained. If you need anything, just find the butler. If you need anything, ask him to prepare it. You don't have to save money for me. And your master, if he lives in the Taifu Mansion all the time, he may be uncomfortable. The West Courtyard is what I prepared for my master. They can keep each other company. It will be convenient for you to take care of them if they move there. The master of the Divine Doctor Valley can also be invited over. They have been friends for so many years, and they should be more comfortable together. And your second uncle is getting married, and I will definitely not be in Kyoto..."
Listening to his rambling, Li Mulan's heartbeat accelerated unconsciously. He was such a serious person, but now he was telling her these trivial matters like an old woman. If she said she was not touched, she would be lying.
"I know. After you leave, I will go and bring Master and the others over. In fact, Sixth Brother has always wanted Master to live over there, and so has Big Brother, but they didn't agree. Hehehe, actually they just want to be closer to me."
Chu Chenfeng smiled, "Well, our Lan'er is just likable."
"That's right. Actually, you don't need to worry about me. I'm not good at other things, but I have the best adaptability. Nothing can stump me."
"You had such a comfortable life before. I'm afraid you won't be used to it in Kyoto."
"I was a little uncomfortable at first, but now it's much better."
"That's good. Xuan Si will be back in a few days. Let him stay with you. Xuan Si is smart and steady. You can arrange anything with him."
"I've heard Xuan Yi talk about him before. You're not going to take such a powerful person to the army?"
"Well, Kyoto also needs people. I'll keep Gu Changqing as well, so he can help Xiaojie a little more."
"Do you have enough people?" Li Mulan couldn't help but feel worried.
Chu Chenfeng smiled gently, "Thanks to the princess, I will take half of your men with me. As for Dongzi, I will take him with me on purpose."
Li Mulan also smiled, "It's not very useful for them to stay with me, and I don't need so many people to protect me. However, I think Erbao might be more suitable to follow you."
Chu Chenfeng tapped her forehead and said, "My wife knows me well. That child is not bad. With a little guidance, he may achieve great success in the future."
