The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xie Lang was stunned when he heard this title.

Xue Mingyue reacted as soon as she said the words. A chill ran down her spine. She forced herself to calm down and changed her words: "Ah, I was just talking nonsense. I must have slept too long just now and my brain was confused."

"I'm hungry after sleeping for so long. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything to eat."

After saying that, she immediately sat up like a carp and ran away.

Xie Lang subconsciously reached out and fished it out, but it was all in vain. He could not catch the little liar who was talking nonsense. A dark light flashed in his black eyes, and the tail of his eyebrows raised slightly.

...Dream about him and call him regent?

How could she, who is so good, dream about these things?

Xie Lang turned his head and glanced at her fleeing back. He did not catch up with her. Instead, he lowered his eyes, raised his fingers and tapped lightly on the recliner. He pondered for a moment and then smiled softly.

In his previous life, he actually served as regent.

The first thing he did after conquering Yongji City was to appoint himself a regent, and imprisoned all the princes who had been beaten until their brains were knocked out, waiting to randomly pick anyone to be the puppet emperor.

but……

Later he felt it was boring.

It just so happened that the ministers were afraid of him all day long and were clamoring for him to support the new emperor's ascension to the throne. He also disliked the princes, so he simply decided to ascend the throne as emperor himself. The night before he ascended the throne, he closed his eyes and took a nap while handling government affairs. a while.

By then his body was at the end of its strength.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back here.

Xie Lang leaned back on the recliner, and his thick black eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his face. He closed his eyes to cover up the sudden and shocking waves in his eyes. His face was so calm that there was no trace of anything at all. mood.

Only he knew that the heartbeat in his chest was already out of balance.

The right hand hanging on the chair was clenched extremely tightly, the veins on the back of the hand were stretched, and the fingers turned white from the exertion.

...

Xue Mingyue ran very fast.

The last time she ran so fast was when she was being chased by an assassin, but this time it was to avoid Xie Lang and she didn't dare to look back. She didn't stop until she reached the small kitchen, holding her hand on the door frame and gasping for air.

The cook and the cook looked horrified when they saw her sudden appearance.

Xue Mingyue waved her hand, indicating that they should not worry about her. After her breathing calmed down a little, she had someone bring a stool over to sit on her. Thinking of what she had just said, she rubbed her face hard twice.

His face was filled with despair.

In fact, it was just a dream!

Did she have a mental disorder at that time and shout out those words "Prince Regent" to Xie Lang? !

Xue Mingyue's almond-shaped eyes darkened, and she howled several times in her heart. Only then did she realize with hindsight that she shouldn't have run away just now. In Xie Lang's eyes, running away was tantamount to admitting a guilty conscience. What?

But what is she guilty of?

Thinking of this, Xue Mingyue was suddenly stunned for a moment. She frowned subconsciously, faintly noticing something was wrong.

The vague thoughts in my mind gradually became clear.

It's like clearing away the clouds and mist.

The cook carefully placed the stewed chicken soup in her hand.

Xue Mingyue came back to her senses when she smelled the aroma of chicken soup. She picked up the bowl, lowered her head and took a sip. The mellow chicken soup slowly calmed down her frightened heart.

After she finished the bowl of chicken soup, she felt warm all over her body.

When Liu Yun Liu Xing came over after receiving the news, he saw his young lady sitting on a small stool with her long hands and legs hunched over, drinking soup. She looked cute and young, and the sudden nervousness in her heart immediately dissipated.

"Miss, why did you come to the kitchen by yourself?"

Liu Yunli breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Xing ran over in small steps, came to her side and smiled: "Miss, if you want to drink soup, just ask us to come. Why did you come by yourself? Liu Yun was frightened after hearing the news."

Especially the news was told to them by someone ordered by the Marquis, saying that the young lady had a nightmare.

Both of them were very frightened at that time.

Xue Mingyue said warmly: "I'm fine. I just felt hungry after I woke up, so I thought I'd go to the kitchen and ask if there was anything to eat. Is dinner ready?"

Having said this, he turned around and asked the cook and others.

The cook nodded in fear: "As for Madam, dinner has been prepared. What would Madam want to eat?"

"The chicken soup is delicious. Give me a bowl of shredded chicken noodles."

Xue Mingyue put the bowl on the table, stood up and pulled the cloak that fell under her shoulders. She stood up and walked out. Liu Xing hurriedly followed, while Liu Yun stayed and explained to the people in the kitchen what the taboos were.

The twilight is gathering, and it is getting late.

When the master and servant Xue Mingyue returned to the main room, they saw Xie Lang sitting on the eaves with his knees bent, looking down at something that looked like a document. He said without raising his head: "I won't hide in the kitchen anymore. ?”

His voice was clear and his tone was playful.

"..."

Xue Mingyue's fist hardened instantly. He was mocking her for being timid!

She narrowed her eyes slightly and said firmly: "No need to worry about it, Mr. Hou, I just went to the kitchen to find something to eat. What is Mr. Hou doing at the door? He is not waiting for me, is he?"

The paper closed with a "pop" sound.

Xie Lang raised his head, with a smile in his eyes, and stood up and said, "I asked Wu Ye to bring some snacks back. Haven't you wanted to eat peach cakes lately but you can't? Do you want to come with us?"

Seeing that he didn't mention a word about the nightmare just now.

Xue Mingyue was also a little confused about what he meant. It was impossible for a normal person to react as calmly as he did when hearing the words 'Prince Regent'. Even if she was not blamed, she should be more cautious and not talk nonsense.

She glanced at Xie Lang suspiciously.

She was sure that this was not a normal reaction.

...But the Xie family has been unwaveringly loyal from generation to generation since the time of Emperor Gaozu. Loyalty is even written in the family motto. It can be said that the Xie family is the most loyal in the entire Jin Dynasty.

You won’t change after arriving at Xie Lang, right?

Xue Mingyue couldn't think of a reason, so she simply stopped thinking about it and asked casually: "Where did you buy peach cake?"

Xie Lang said lightly: "Old Li did it."

Xue Mingyue: "..."

So this thing was brought from the hot spring village? Then why didn't Chef Li cook it for her while she was still here?

...

Tonight’s dinner is shredded chicken noodle soup.

Houfu's noodle soup naturally does not only have shredded chicken as a topping. It is extremely rich in ingredients and has a layered texture.

Although Zhuangzi can also make this kind of noodle soup, it is still inferior to Houfu in terms of ingredients. It's not that they can't make it, but because of their status, many things are difficult to surpass.

A distinguished family like the Hou Mansion has very high regulations on dining.

This is something that even the Xue family cannot compare with.

Xue Mingyue was thinking while eating, so her initial plan after her rebirth was to stay in the Hou Mansion as long as possible and enjoy her life as Mrs. Hou. After all, she did not enjoy it in her previous life.

Now I am enjoying it.

She decided that she would live a similar life after moving to Suzhou City.
