Transmigrated into a goddess from another world, and criticized the King of Yan for loving her like

"Also, how did she get in?"

Zhong Guang was stunned for a moment, "I am guilty, I just closed my eyes for a while."

Zhong Guang knew in his heart that this was most likely Xu Wanqing's trick. He was a trained secret guard and would never fall asleep while on night watch. It seemed that something was fishy.

Of course Lu Huan understood, "Take her down and accept the punishment yourself."

"Yes, I obey."

Xu Wanqing gave Lu Huan a meaningful look, and without waiting for Zhong Guang to pull her, she turned and left. Zhong Guang followed her immediately, not daring to let his guard down again.

Lu Huan walked to the table with familiarity, poured out a granular medicine from a round-mouthed bottle, and swallowed it raw without even drinking any water.

After a while, the headache symptoms were relieved.

Lu Huan also knew what Xu Wanqing had just said, about how she had been calling Su Zhao's name in her sleep.

These days, he either dreamed about his mother's life or the days he spent with Su Qian. Although they all seemed like a pipe dream, they were all the days he missed.

It is said that what you think about during the day you will dream about at night, so he would often dream about these things, but... that heartless woman is probably living a sweet married life with Yan Xuanye now.

……

The next day, in Kunde Palace, Lu Huan wore a crescent-colored straight-collared brocade robe embroidered with gold, with a black jade waistband buckled around his waist, making him look even taller, cooler and more elegant.

Lu Huan sat upright on the dragon throne, looking down at the ministers below the steps, with an indescribable grace and elegance.

"My Lords, what do you want to report today?"

"I have something to report." Minister of Rites Jiang Du walked out of the crowd holding a jade tablet.

"Play."

"Your Majesty is already over twenty-five, but has never married. Now that Your Majesty has ascended the throne, it is time for you to marry a queen."

"According to the custom of our dynasty, the emperor should have one empress, three first-rank wives, nine concubines, twenty-seven concubines and the imperial wife..."

"Your Majesty is a wise ruler. You should also have more offspring for the prosperity of our dynasty."

Lu Huan listened coldly, his face a little haggard. Now when he heard them report the matter again, there was an imperceptible hint of hostility between his brows.

"I have already said last time that I have a candidate for the position of Queen. You ministers do not need to test me again and again."

Jiang Du frowned slightly, his face revealing a stubbornness, "Your Majesty has already decided on the position of Queen, I would like to ask Your Majesty...whose daughter is the Queen?"

Lu Huan chuckled softly, "Why, are you trying to threaten me?"

Jiang Du immediately knelt on the ground, "I dare not, but... although Your Majesty has decided on the candidate for the position of Queen, he has never announced it to the world, and I am curious."

"Moreover... the position of the empress concerns the whole world and the entire Zhao Kingdom, so it should be handled with caution. If Your Majesty is willing to speak out, we can discuss it for everyone in the world."

Lu Huan leaned back in his chair, looking down at Jiang Du who was kneeling on the ground, his gloomy eyes were intriguing.

He didn't speak, and the ministers in the audience didn't dare to speak easily either. Jiang Du also gradually became nervous.

Zuo Xiang was keenly aware of the unusual atmosphere. Unlike the others who were conservative, he was known for his straightforwardness and sharpness, and his words were not unkind.

"Your Majesty has already chosen the empress, and we cannot disobey. However... Your Majesty has been dragging his feet and has not announced the empress's choice nor held a wedding ceremony for the emperor and empress. For the sake of long-term planning... I beg Your Majesty to marry other wives and concubines first to have children!"

Hearing this, Lu Huan raised his eyelashes and said, "It seems that the Left Prime Minister has already chosen a concubine for me."

He leaned forward with a mischievous look on his face, "Why don't you tell me about it?"

After Lu Huan ascended the throne, Xu Lianyun, the Prince's tutor, was promoted to the position of first-rank tutor.

For some reason, Xu Lianyun, looking at Lu Huan, who has now ascended the throne as emperor, in the team of officials, always felt that he had changed a lot. The good student Lu Huan, who used to be gentle and humble, has become the monarch Lu Huan who is strategizing, sharp and aloof.

The warm spring sun shone behind him, and under the reflection of the bright sun, he looked even colder, more aloof, sharp and tough.

It's like a sharp thin blade reflecting its own cold light in the sun, which can have a shocking effect just by looking at it.

The Left Prime Minister said: "I have no such intention. I am also considering the country for your majesty. If your majesty agrees, why not let the Ministry of Rites draw up a list of names first?"

Lu Huan also understood that if he did not agree to their request today, they would definitely use the position of Queen as a threat.

He was silent for a while, with a very faint official smile on his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes. "Then I'll do as you said and draw up a list first. Let's take a look."

The left prime minister said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Lu Huan could no longer laugh. He waved his sleeves and turned away, leaving only two words behind: "Dismiss."

……

Outside Danxia City, Su Qian treated Yan Xuanye coldly for quite some time, and the day finally came when they were to set off to leave Danxia City.

Yan Xuanye had ordered people to prepare everything early on and they were just waiting to set off.

Su Qian rested for two days. During these two days, Yan Xuanye did not dare to be too presumptuous. It could be said that he was very obedient to her and let her do whatever she wanted. Even the day of departure was decided only after she nodded.

Cuiwei supported Su Qian. Yan Xuanye and others were already ready. Seeing Su Qian coming, Yan Xuanye pulled open the curtain of the carriage made of silk satin, and then helped her get into the carriage. Before she could react, Yan Xuanye got into the carriage and sat next to her.

Su Qian glanced at him indifferently, then looked away.

Yan Xuanye had been frustrated for several days and was a little impatient. He gently turned Su Qian's body over and said, "Qianqian, if you are angry, just say it out. Don't hold it in. It's not good for your health."

Su Qian: "I'm not angry."

She just felt helpless because of the difference in their ideas.

I don’t know what to do, I don’t know how to persuade him, but I don’t want to give up my persistence and follow the crowd to become a worldly woman.

Did God let her travel through time to this era just to give birth to children for a man?

She has been thinking these days, not about how to persuade him, nor about how to use contraception, but about what she can do in this era.

……

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Yan Xuanye deliberately brought up something.

He smiled calmly, staring at Su Qian's expression without blinking, not wanting to miss any of her reactions. "By the way, I heard something recently."

"Lu Huan will be taking a concubine soon." He spoke easily, as if he was mentioning it casually.

But only Su Qian knew how jealous he was.

After all, the strength of the big hand holding her waist was indeed hard to ignore...

Su Qian met his gaze calmly, "Really?"

"Why take concubines instead of marrying a queen?" She asked nonchalantly, as if she was asking an insignificant person.

Yan Xuanye's expression paused slightly. He knew that he should be happy with her reaction, but for some reason, the nameless jealousy in his heart was burning again.

Clearly what she said denied her relationship with Lu Huan, but he just couldn't be happy.

Maybe it was because she and Lu Huan did have a unique past, or maybe it was because she had betrayed herself. Who could be free of resentment after being betrayed by the person they love the most?

He can't.

The conflicting feelings between love and jealousy made him even stranger.

Yan Xuanye: "Aren't you sad?"

Su Qian asked back: "Why should I be sad?"

"You loved him, and maybe... you still love him now," he said.

"Yan Xuanye, I have said it many times, I don't love him, I don't love Lu Huan." She explained firmly.

Sometimes she wanted to open Yan Xuanye’s mind and see what he was thinking.

He stared at her silently, and seeing her firm and sincere eyes, he felt moved.

He held her waist gently and embraced her, and Su Qian was held in his arms, "Okay, okay, I don't love him."

"Qianqian only loves me, right?"
