Chapter 263 Two Queens

Nan Xi couldn't help but remind him: "Rong Yu, I'm just pregnant, my arms and legs are not broken."

Rong Yu said: "My beloved concubine doesn't like this?"

Nan Xi was afraid that he would be sad, so she shook her head quickly: "I'm afraid of tiring you."

"You're not tired of leading troops in battle, so how can you be tired of taking care of my beloved concubine?" Rong Yu raised his eyes to look at her, "Does my beloved concubine feel that she is more difficult to serve than thousands of troops?"

Nan Xi was speechless for a while: "..." How could she, a delicate girl, compare to the power of thousands of troops?

He thinks too highly of her.

Nan Xi still couldn't get over Rong Yu's insistence. She sat there quietly and docilely, and Rong Yu fed her mouthful by mouthful, and picked out her favorite food. She was indeed happy. Any woman in the world who saw this scene would probably be envious and jealous.

But Nan Xi always felt that something was wrong.

She found that she seemed to have been completely controlled by Rong Yu since she didn't know when. She couldn't bear him to feel sad or lonely, couldn't bear his feelings to be rejected, was afraid that he would have wild thoughts, and was afraid that his love would be hurt, so she wanted to do everything he wanted to do - except for the initial reason that she married him because of compensation and guilt, the biggest reason should be that his self-harming behavior really scared her, leaving a huge shadow in her heart.

But Nan Xi still felt something was wrong.

Obviously Rong Yu was so gentle, except for his strong feelings that were a bit paranoid, he was really good to her and there was really no flaw to find, but where did the feeling of something wrong come from in her heart?

Nan Xi thought so in her heart, and couldn't help but look up at him, her eyes didn't blink, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

"Xi'er, what's wrong?"

"Rong Yu, did you give me a drug?" Nan Xi held her chin, her eyes were filled with tenderness and smile, her voice sounded a little silly, "I think you are the best husband in the world, I seem to be more and more inseparable from you, I can't even imagine, if you are not by my side in the future..."

"Don't talk nonsense." Rong Yu raised his hand to her lips, "How can I not be by your side? Don't think about getting rid of me in this life."

Nan Xi frowned: "Threatening me?"

"Yes, threatening you." Rong Yu put down his chopsticks, "I will follow you wherever you go, don't think about getting rid of me."

Nan Xi thought quietly, is this something that Rong Yu, the regent of the Great Zhou, would say? If his soldiers heard it, they would probably think they were following a fake prince.

It was drizzling outside.

After lunch, Nan Xi walked to the eaves outside the house, looking at the foggy sky, with a little yearning in her voice: "I heard that lovers walking in the rain is a special kind of fun."

"Do you want to go?" Rong Yu stood beside her, "Let's go to the garden to appreciate chrysanthemums."

Nan Xi turned her head and looked at him: "Is it okay?"

Rong Yu hummed: "Okay."

Nan Xi thought about it and shook her head slowly: "No."

"Why?"

Nan Xi said: "It's cold outside, it's more comfortable to stay in the house."

Why?

Because she is pregnant now, she can't take risks. If she really goes, Rong Yu is afraid that she will catch a cold and will definitely protect her tightly. It's unnecessary to add extra burden to him for her temporary romance.

Nan Xi turned around and sat on the brocade couch in front of the window.

Rong Yu brought her a cup of warm tea, "Drink it, I'll take you there."

Nan Xi raised her head and met Rong Yu's eyes that were always gentle and affectionate. Her heartstrings trembled slightly, and she nodded obediently and drank the whole cup of warm tea.

Rong Yu put the teacup aside, stretched out his hand to tie her cloak, picked her up from the brocade couch, and put the hat on her, protecting her whole body tightly and airtight.

Turning around and walking to the outer hall, Qingyang tied a large black cloak on Rong Yu's shoulders. Rong Yu lifted the cloak to cover Nan Xi in his arms, almost wrapping her up, not even revealing her eyes.

Nan Xi was speechless for a while, and was too lazy to stick her head out to see people.

It's only autumn now. For a strong martial artist like Rong Yu, it's far from the time to tie such a thick cloak. For her, he has done his best.

And even for herself, it's not really necessary to take such precautions to keep warm.

There was a gust of wind in her ears. Nan Xi felt that Rong Yu was moving very fast. He stopped in a blink of an eye and said, "Xi'er."

The black cloak was taken off, and Nan Xi finally looked out and found that they had arrived at the warm pavilion. The bamboo curtains hanging around blocked the wind and rain outside.

Even if there was occasional wind blowing in through the gaps in the bamboo curtains, the coolness was blocked tightly by the cloak wrapped tightly around her body.

Nan Xi even felt a little hot.

Sitting in the warm pavilion, you can see large patches of chrysanthemums blooming outside, blooming in the rain with a proud and noble posture, but for some reason, Nan Xi's mind flashed some familiar pictures, the woman in noble and gorgeous clothes sitting in the garden warm pavilion, accompanied by a man whose face could not be seen clearly... The picture was so beautiful, but there was a kind of silent sorrow lingering around...

Intermittently, it soon disappeared.

Nan Xi frowned, subconsciously trying to get rid of those unreal pictures, but couldn't help wanting to see the man's face clearly.

Who is he?

Why can the two people who appeared in the dream affect her emotions?

Are they related to me?

"Xi'er." Rong Yu lowered his eyebrows and stared at her calm eyes, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

Nan Xi shook her head slowly: "Rong Yu."

"Hmm?"

"What kind of woman was the last queen of Dongling?"

Rong Yu paused, "Why are you suddenly interested in her?"

"I just want to know how she became an empress." Nan Xi smiled, "Although Dongling has an empress every two hundred years, which is the decision of the priest hall, it can be regarded as the will of heaven, but no matter what, since you have inherited the throne, you must shoulder the responsibility of the people of the world, and you need to handle government affairs and govern the country like a male emperor... What kind of woman is this empress?"

Rong Yu was silent for a moment, and said: "I read the political history of Dongling a few days ago. The two empresses in history were both wise and intelligent women."

"Really?" Nan Xi Surprised, "I wonder if I can do as well as them."

"Yes." Rong Yu whispered, "You can do better than them."

Nan Xi's lips curved slightly: "Do these two empresses have three palaces and six courtyards?"

Rong Yu was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "Yes."

"All?" Nan Xi was surprised, as if she suddenly became interested in the two empresses, "How many?"

Rong Yu answered every question: "The first empress, Empress Zeyuan, had sixteen husbands recorded in the book."

Nan Xi was amazed: "It seems that she was also a passionate emperor."

Recorded in the book means that there are official titles, and there are some without official titles?

Rong Yu said in a faint voice: "This empress is ambitious and never cares about love. There are many husbands in the harem, mostly for the purpose of consolidating the country."
