According to reports, King Qiujue fell ill on the road and was delayed for a few days, and the time to arrive in Yingzhong was postponed.But it was not too late for a few days. As the day approached, Li Yunke became more and more busy, and there was no time to go back to eat at noon.

Therefore, he didn't see Nangongxuan before dinner that night, and naturally he didn't know that Nangongxuan was angry when he didn't see him, and even more angry when he saw him.

Li Yunke knew from Xu Mingxi that Nangong Xuan was not a good-tempered person at all, but since he had that little thing in his stomach, his temper became worse day by day.

So at dinner, he didn't take it seriously when he saw the other party's cold face, and leaned over to tease him: "Why, I'm angry because I didn't come back to accompany you for lunch? But I didn't send someone to tell you in advance Are you mad, I’m afraid I’ll run out of time before sending King Qiujue away, if you’re so angry every day, won’t you be so angry?”

Xu Mingxi and Kong Ying looked at him with guilty and sympathetic faces, winked desperately and shook their heads.

Li Yunke was puzzled.

Nangongxuan looked at the two winking guys, and said: "The prince is not in a hurry to eat, the matter on the queen mother's side is the big one, why don't you go and show the portrait to the prince?"

Xu Mingxi sniffed, "Master..."

"Portrait? What portrait?" Li Yunke looked at Nangong Xuan, but Nangong Xuan ignored him, so he had to go to see Kong Ying.

Kong Ying said in a low voice: "My lord, today the queen mother asked the two father-in-laws to send a lot of portraits, saying that they want you to choose... to choose the princess..."

When Li Yunke heard it, he was happy.

Nangong Xuan slapped the chopsticks he had just picked up on the table.

"That is to say," Li Yunke sat down next to him, "My real princess, is she jealous?"

Nangong Xuan: "..."

Kong Ying coughed, "My lord, I was wrong, because I talked nonsense, the princess didn't have much lunch, and she didn't sleep well in the afternoon, I..."

"Well, then you are very wrong," Li Yunke said, "Punish you..."

Nangongxuan interrupted him and said: "It has nothing to do with him, I'm not because of your crap, I'm just thinking about the disciples of Zi Ming's sect."

Li Yunke followed suit and said: "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you say it's irrelevant. Yingying, the princess will intercede for you in person, this time I won't care about it, but I won't be an example, remember?"

Kong Ying repeatedly agreed, forgetting about the Nangong leader who had been calling for two days, and said, "Thank you, my lord, and my concubine!"

Nangong Xuan almost had the word "annoying" clearly written on his face.

Li Yunke took food for him, "Don't worry, you are enough for me, I will not marry others, let alone touch others. Okay, can I eat now?"

Nangongxuan felt that someone poked the bottom of his heart lightly, and then there was something rippling around, strange, but people couldn't help but want to find out.The anger that had been suppressed for a whole day was wiped out because of his words, Nangongxuan felt disgusted with this kind of self again, squinted at Li Yunke and said: "Then you are afraid that you will die alone forever."

"Are you willing?" Li Yunke blinked his flirtatious peach blossom eyes, "I am also a well-known handsome man in Yingzhong City, are you not afraid that after you leave me alone, others will covet my beauty?"

Xu Mingxi and Kong Ying burst out laughing at the same time.

Nangong Xuan grabbed a piece of flesh and stuffed it directly into Li Yunke's mouth, "You can't stop your mouth even if you eat it!"

Li Yunke squinted his eyes and chewed the meat, satisfied: "It's delicious!"

After the meal, Li Yunke followed Nangongxuan wherever he went, and Kong Ying followed him all the time, delivering the portraits sent by the Queen Mother to him one by one, and he commented on them one by one.

"This one is a bit fat, not as slim as my princess."

"This one is too thin, it must not be as comfortable to hold as my princess."

"This round face is not the type I like. It is far worse than my princess."

……

Nangongxuan was nagged by him from the courtyard and returned to his room, and he always ignored him.

"This is not bad, it looks pretty good." Li Yunke squeezed beside him, changed his casual tone before, and handed the portrait in front of him, "Look, how is it?"

Those words before the meal that they won't marry others were just jokes?Nangongxuan pushed him away, and walked out again, "It's not for me to choose, what does it matter to me whether it looks good or not?"

The door slammed heavily, and Kong Ying looked at Li Yunke speechlessly, and said, "My lord, what are you doing?"

Li Yunke smiled, "Don't you think he is so cute?"

Kong Ying: "..."

"Let someone send all these portraits back tomorrow."

"What do you say?"

Li Yunke threw the portrait in his hand to him, "I said that I have high requirements, and I didn't like any of them."

"...Will it be too direct?"

Li Yunke got up and went out, "If this can make the old lady annoy me and stop working on this matter, wouldn't that be the best?"

I met Xu Mingxi outside and learned from him that Nangong Xuan had gone to take a bath. Li Yunke thought about it and decided to take a bath with his concubine.

Before today, he didn't dare to bother Nangongxuan when he was taking a bath, but what happened today made him sure that that person had some affection for him, so naturally he shouldn't waste such a good opportunity to get close to him.

There is another room next to the back hall against the west wall of Jingyuan, which is used as a bathroom, and there is a large or small pool in it, enough for seven or eight people to bathe at the same time.

If there is no special situation every day, the water in the pool will be heated up around the end of the unitary hour. If the temperature is not suitable, knock on the wooden board on the west wall, and someone will listen to the order at the other end.In the early morning of the next day, someone would come in through the door opened behind the wooden planks before the owner got up, and replace with clean water without disturbing him.

Nangongxuan sat in the pool water with a moderate temperature, leaning against the pool wall and repeatedly thinking about a question - did he really start to like Li Yunke.

In the past few years, except for Xu Mingxi, he would keep three points against everyone, and he could no longer treat each other sincerely.Suspicion and precaution have become his nature. He thought that he had long since lost the ability to like someone, but the appearance and approach of Li Yunke defeated all his self-protection abilities, and he even adopted an attitude of acquiescence and connivance.

Want to gamble?For the sake of the child in my belly, taking the courage to take this step, the worst is nothing but doom, and I am no stranger to this.

Nangongxuan was in a daze, when he suddenly heard footsteps from far to near, he couldn't help but get nervous, got up and went to reach for the clothes in the chair by the poolside.

But now he is inconvenient in shape, coupled with anxiety, he accidentally slipped on the sole of his foot, and his body twisted and fell towards the wall of the pool.

Li Yunke, who had just walked in, was taken aback by him, so he pounced on him with lightness kung fu, and brought him back to the pool, "Why are you so careless, are you going to scare me to death?"

I don't know if it was because of the heat in this room, but Nangong Xuan's whole body turned pink, especially his face.He was stuck in the pool at the moment, and it was not enough to cover it with his hands, nor was it to touch his clothes, he just wanted to kick Li Yunke to death.

Li Yunke acted as if he didn't see his cannibalistic gaze, helped him to sit down again, and asked, "Did you hit him, and is there any discomfort?"

"No!" Nangong Xuan clapped his hands away, "Why did you come in, go out!"

Li Yunke took it for granted: "Of course I came in to take a bath, and you see I'm soaked, wouldn't it be good to drive me out like this?"

Nangongxuan crossed his legs and wanted to block it, but the bulge of his lower abdomen made it inconvenient for him to do this. He became more and more ashamed and angry, "I care about you? Get out!"

Li Yunke saw through his embarrassment, leaned over and wiped off the two drops of water splashed on his cheeks with his thumb, and said, "I've seen it so many times, why are you still shy? How about this, I won't let you suffer, look back , shall we even make it even?"

As he spoke, he actually took off his clothes by himself, his movements were unhurried, and his expression was very calm, as if he was not taking off his own clothes.

Nangong Xuan: "..." Damn it, what's going on with this situation where you can't control your eyes even though you obviously don't want to look at them?

Li Yunke threw away the wet clothes, came over and sat side by side with him, and said with a murmur, "Shu Tan."

Nothing was added to the pool water, and the bottom was clearly visible. Nangongxuan's eyes followed Li Yunke unconsciously, and finally stopped on the beautiful muscles of his chest and abdomen, showing a little envy.He lowered his head to look at his abdomen again, the firm muscles that were originally there were gone, and turned into this strange bulge, which made him feel depressed again.

"Does this make you feel more relaxed?" Li Yunke turned sideways, leaning on the edge of the pool with one elbow to support his head, and naturally placed the other hand on Nangongxuan's abdomen, blocking him. Sight.

"Ok?"

Li Yunke's generous palms caressed his stomach, "Water can support your stomach and make your waist less burdensome, so you like to sit here."

Nangong Xuan took his hand away, "It's okay."

"But don't sit for too long," Li Yunke put his hand on it again, "it's so hot in here, and you're sleepy. Falling asleep in the water is no joke. Even if you don't fall asleep, it will take a long time. I'm afraid you'll faint, so I'll go out when I'm almost done, you know?"

Nangong Xuan said impatiently: "I'm going out, who is holding me back?"

Li Yunke smiled at him, "I am with you today, don't be afraid. As long as I can spare time in the future, I will be with you."

"Who... do you want to accompany me?" As soon as the words came out, Nangong Xuan wanted to bite off his own tongue.

Li Yunke didn't notice his unresolute tone, and said to himself: "Right now, I'm most worried..."

Nangong Xuan hurriedly changed the subject, "What are you worried about?"

"King Qiujue will be in Yingzhong before the end of the month, and there will be a banquet in the palace. I just hope that day will not be on the first day of the new year."
