Chapter 118: Xie Shizi's "Problem"
Chapter 118: Xie Shizi's "Problem"
"During the days when you were away from the court, no one could share the worries for father. My other brothers were only thinking about fighting for the throne, and they didn't care about the country and the survival of the people. They..."
"Ahem..." Luo Qingge had just said half of her words when she was interrupted by Xie Liuzheng's light cough.
His eyes flashed, and he put his thin lips close to Luo Qingge's ear and said in a low voice:
"Princess Nine, even if you are a princess, the daughter of your father and mother, you cannot talk about such sensitive topics. Even if you don't consider yourself, you should consider your mother and your three-year-old brother. Over the years, the princes' fight for the throne has always resulted in rivers of blood and floating corpses. This is no joke."
Xie Liuzheng was not too far away, but it looked like he was hugging Luo Qingge from behind. The man's warm breath sprayed on the girl's neck, and Luo Qingge's neck turned red instantly.
She was slightly startled and quickly took a few steps back, distanced herself from Xie Liuzheng, and said calmly, "What are you afraid of? There are no outsiders here."
"It's not that I look down on my brothers. If my third brother were here, how could they be so arrogant?"
She was fed up with seeing them fighting all day long.
Xie Liuzheng: "..."
He wanted to ask, isn't Prince Luo Jingshen her biological brother?
Why did she speak to outsiders and mock her own brother as well?
However, Luo Qingge said that there were no outsiders here, which made Xie Liuzheng very happy.
Although, he didn't know why he was happy.
Luo Junhe frowned, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Qingge, what Prince Xie said is right. The matter of the prince's succession is no small matter. You can just talk about this matter in front of me and your third sister-in-law. Don't tell anyone else after you leave, especially in front of the Crown Prince and the King of Qi."
"In the palace, everything you say and do will be magnified. Even if you don't mean it that way, if someone with ulterior motives hears it, it will probably implicate the Imperial Tutor's Mansion and the Empress."
Luo Qingge was not angry after being taught a lesson. She understood that what Luo Junhe said was right, and he did it for her own good.
"Brother Sanhuang, I know. I understand everything in my heart. I just feel sad when I think that those bad guys are still alive and well, but you are...
"You don't have to feel sad for me. Fortune and misfortune are interdependent. Everyone has their own destiny. I have been paralyzed in bed for three years, but it's not like I didn't get any benefits."
When Luo Junhe said this, a smile appeared on his lips and his expression became particularly gentle.
Luo Qingge was slightly stunned, and asked in confusion: "Ah, Third Brother, what benefit did you get?"
She thought about it over and over again, but couldn't figure out what good it would be to be paralyzed in bed for three years.
Could it be that the benefit of not having to do any work, not having to worry about anything, and just sleeping every day?
Xie Liuzheng was almost speechless.
For the first time, he realized that Luo Qingge not only looked stupid, but she was really not very smart.
There is no doubt that she is straightforward and innocent, but maybe she is too well protected by the Queen in the palace, which makes her look innocent.
If she were to fight with someone like Luo Qianxue, how would she win?
Xie Liuzheng didn't want her to be plotted against by others before she even fell in love with him, so he kindly reminded her:
"Ninth Princess, use your smart brain to think carefully about how your third sister-in-law got married and how she became the Princess of Night?"
After being reminded by Xie Liuzheng, Luo Qingge instantly came to his senses.
The marriage arranged by her father was originally for Ji Qingqing, but the Yongning Marquisate found her third sister-in-law from the countryside to marry in her place.
Luo Junhe has married five princesses so far. If he had not been paralyzed in bed, it would never have been Ji Yuntang's turn to be the Princess of the Night.
Therefore, a friend in need is a friend indeed. The only good thing about his three years of paralysis was that he married such a good princess!
Luo Qingge had a smile on her face. It was rare for her to like Xie Liuzheng.
"I understand. I didn't expect you to be so smart."
Xie Liuzheng turned his head to look at the woman's jade-like face, with a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth.
"That's right. Don't you see who I am? The title of the most dissolute playboy in the capital, is it worthy of anyone?"
"You must learn more from me in the future!"
Luo Qingge: "..."
He is so shameless that he cannot be praised at all!
He can fly if he is praised.
At this time, Ji Yuntang's silver bell-like voice came from outside.
"The meal is ready, Qingge, thank you Prince, it's time to come out and wash your hands and eat!"
When Luo Qingge heard about eating, her eyes lit up. She swallowed and said to Luo Junhe, "Third brother, Third sister-in-law called us, so we two will go out first and come to see you later."
After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Xie Liuzheng to react and directly pulled him out.
Xie Liuzheng: "???"
The girl's hands were as smooth as jade. His eyes fell on the hand that she was holding, and his narrow phoenix eyes narrowed.
Does this mean that Luo Qingge is taking advantage of him?
No one knew that Xie Liuzheng had contracted a strange disease when he was a child and was extremely averse to physical contact with women, even his mother.
Over the years, Lady Rongguo has sought medical treatment and medicine for him everywhere, but to no avail.
Because this disease has no symptoms, if there is any symptom, it is that he will feel like vomiting as soon as he comes into contact with a woman.
Because of this incident, he once vomited on another girl. That girl was originally a suitor of Xie Liuzheng, but after this incident, she avoided him like the plague and scolded him for being "sick."
Xie Liuzheng sneered disdainfully. He was ill, but that was also because the other party had bad intentions towards him and wanted to drug him and molest him.
In the end, I failed and he vomited all over me.
This is also a disease. He thinks it is good to have this disease, which can prevent women with ulterior motives from getting close to him.
But unexpectedly, Luo Qingge could actually touch him?
The most important thing is that not only did he not feel disgusted by her touch, he also did not have any desire to vomit.
Because he was too surprised, Xie Liuzheng forgot how to react, and did not even struggle to break free from Luo Qingge's hand. He was directly dragged by Luo Qingge to the yard.
Ji Yuntang saw them at a glance. The handsome man and beautiful woman were walking towards him in sync, looking a perfect match.
Her sparkling eyes fell on the two people's clasped hands, and her eyebrows raised slightly.
what happened?
Weren't the two of them just arguing and bickering? She heard it all from the small kitchen.
Why is the relationship so close now?
Did she miss some important plot while she was cooking?
Luo Qingge was carefree and unaware, but Xie Liuzheng was keenly aware of Ji Yuntang's gaze and felt uncomfortable being stared at by her.
It was as if he and Luo Qingge were having some affair.
