If you don’t cherish the love we wear quickly, why are you crying if you change your mind?

Chapter 473: The Abstinent Prime Minister vs. the Divorced Queen (38)

Wei Jinchu's ears felt hot, he clenched his fist and coughed lightly, then reached out and hugged Jiang Miao in his arms, "I will listen to you from now on, can I make an exception in bed?"

"You!" Jiang Miao blushed and said angrily, "Why didn't I realize you were such a man before?"

Wei Jinchu smiled and kissed the corner of her lips lovingly, "No matter who I am, I will still love you."

"I can listen to you in bed."

Jiang Miao felt that he must have a conspiracy. Sure enough, she soon discovered that men would lose their memory in bed and would not remember what they had promised at all.

……

During the period when Wei Jinchu was unemployed, Chen Shaoyuan lived a much more comfortable life than before. During the morning court, he no longer had to look at Wei Jinchu's face when issuing decrees.

He could make decisions based on his own opinions, deciding whose memorials to approve and whose to reject, and finally realized the supreme power of being an emperor.

One morning during the court session, he sat on the dragon chair and stretched out his body comfortably. "My dear ministers, do you have anything else to say?"

At this time, a minister stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, the western border of Chen State has been invaded by Xiongnu soldiers since the beginning of this spring. They have plundered the cattle and sheep of the people. Please send more soldiers to guard the border."

As soon as this statement was made, someone seconded it.

"I second the proposal. I think we can send General Huo there and allocate funds to actively train the troops and take precautions."

There are also those who oppose it.

"I have an objection. Over the years, the court has allocated funds for border defense many times, but the results are minimal. I believe that someone must have embezzled money. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly."

Immediately afterwards, the two sides started arguing.

Chen Shaoyuan felt a headache for the first time. In the past, these court officials were very well-behaved and dared not make any noise.

Could it be that they are afraid of Wei Jinchu?

"Okay, stop arguing. We'll discuss this tomorrow." Chen Shaoyuan waved his hand irritably, "Dismiss."

The courtiers filed out and began to whisper before they had even gone far.

"Alas, when will Lord Wei come back?"

"If you don't come back, the State of Chen will be in chaos."

Chen Shaoyuan had no self-awareness at all and even wanted to lead his ministers to the Lishan Palace in the suburbs to escape the summer heat.

Naturally, Prime Minister Wei, who is unemployed at home, and his wife will also be invited.

Jiang Miao was eating iced watermelon comfortably in the ice room. Wei Jinchu, who was reading a book nearby, suddenly said, "We will leave for the Lishan Palace in a few days to escape the summer heat. If you have anything you want to bring, ask Wei Er to prepare it."

Jiang Miao thought about it and said, "Let's go to the bookstore and buy some new books. I wonder if the palace is fun."

"I will always be with you." Wei Jinchu stroked her long hair soothingly.

Jiang Miao bit her lower lip and nodded, "What if Chen Shaoyuan recognizes me?"

"The queen is dead. You are my wife now. No one can touch you."

Wei Jinchu took the handkerchief and wiped the watermelon juice from the corner of her lips.

Jiang Miao picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to him, "Try it, it's sweet."

Wei Jinchu took a bite, but not wanting her to dirty her hands, he took the watermelon away.

"The Lishan Palace is not too hot in summer and the scenery is pleasant. You might like it."

Jiang Miao didn't have much impression of the Lishan Palace. After all, the original owner didn't have the opportunity to go to this palace.

She nodded thoughtfully, "Just think of it as a honeymoon."

"Honeymoon?" Wei Jinchu came back after washing his hands, his heroic eyebrows slightly raised, "What is a honeymoon?"

Jiang Miao's almond eyes rolled around, "Well, after we vixens get married, we will go on a trip with our husbands. We call it a honeymoon."

Wei Jinchu smiled and saw that her fair and flawless cheeks looked even more cute and adorable due to the blush.

Thinking that the woman in front of him was his wife, his heart softened. He hugged her in his arms and tucked her falling hair behind her ears with his slender white fingers.

In the sunlight, the woman's pretty face revealed a hint of tenderness when she teased him, making Wei Jinchu find it difficult to control himself even during the day.

He leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

The two of them had just eaten watermelon, and their lips were slightly sweet with the fresh taste of watermelon.

The soft touch of the lips made Wei Jinchu pick the person up and walk towards the bed.

Jiang Miao quickly pushed his chest, "Jin Chu, it's not dark yet!"

When Wei Jinchu looked at her sparkling lips with traces of water on them, his deep eyes became even deeper and his hand holding her waist tightened a little.

"It's okay. As a couple, why wait until night to maintain a harmonious relationship?"

"You haven't showered yet." Jiang Miao stopped him shyly.

"Together." Wei Jinchu's voice was unusually low and hoarse.

In the bathtub, white mist was lingering between the two of them.

Jiang Miao felt a little embarrassed when he looked at her, so she called out softly, "Husband?"

Wei Jin's broad shoulders, arms, and chest muscles revealed above the water contained explosive power, especially when his Adam's apple rolled.

"what happened?"

Jiang Miao's ears felt hot, "I want to go back to the couch."

Wei Jinchu grabbed her legs and held her in his arms until he reached that gentle place, then he let out a long sigh of relief.

Jiang Miao was like a broken man, biting his lips, his nails leaving scratches on his arms.

In the end, her arms were completely powerless and her consciousness was drifting.

Jiang Miao only felt that the sky was getting darker and darker, and then she heard Wei Jinchu say some private words that made her blush.

It was unknown how long it was before the man turned over and held her in his arms.

The two of them lay on the large bed. Jiang Miao curled up slightly against his chest, closed his eyes and rested. It took a while for him to calm down.

Ice cubes were placed in the room to cool it down, but crystal sweat still rolled down Wei Jinchu's forehead along his handsome nose.

……

The Lishan Palace was more than 300 miles away from the capital, and could be reached in one day by fast horses. Even if court officials accompanied the emperor on the trip, the motorcade would have to travel very slowly, taking two or three days.

Jiang Miao was riding in the prime minister's luxurious carriage, which was running very smoothly. She read a storybook in the carriage and ate some snacks. She felt quite comfortable. They stopped and went along the way and finally arrived at the Lishan Palace in the Mountain Resort at noon on the third day.

Many people present were paying attention to the carriage of the prime minister's residence, especially the wives of court officials, who all wanted to see the true face of the prime minister's wife.

After all, this lady had never attended any of the flower-viewing banquets for the noble ladies in the capital, so everyone was very curious about her and also wanted to get closer to her.

The prime minister's carriage stopped, and they first saw Prime Minister Wei, who was wearing a black robe, getting off the carriage, and then he personally helped a young woman get off the carriage.

The woman had a graceful figure and fair skin, but unfortunately her face was covered with a layer of gauze, so only a pair of watery eyes could be seen, and her beautiful face was vague and unclear.

It was the first time that the ladies saw that Prime Minister Wei, who always had a stern face outside, was so loving and affectionate to his wives, and they were surprised and envious.

Jiang Miao held Wei Jinchu's hand and looked up at the towering palace in front of him. The pavilions and waterside terraces were scattered all over the place, and the long corridor and lotus pond were extremely elegant.

There is a cool breeze blowing on your face, making you feel relaxed and happy.

Emperor Chen Shaoyuan and his concubines moved into Huaqing Palace, while other ministers and their families were arranged in the surrounding palace courtyards.

Jiang Miao and Wei Jinchu moved into an elegant mansion where flowers and plants were in full bloom, the air was filled with fragrance, and there was also a natural hot spring pool.
