Chapter 319 (2/2)

”Go to bed quickly, too. It seems that you stayed with the emperor very late,” Xue ronghua tightened his quilt. ”I have to rest, too. I don't feel enough sleep recently.”

Chu Zongge tilted his head and looked at her for a while. Xue ronghua turned his face in wonder and found that he was still by the bed. He was surprised and said, ”why don't you go yet? What are you doing here?”

”I just want to see you fall asleep,” Chu Zongge said with a smile. ”I can't sleep now. I'd better watch you fall asleep by your side.”

Xue ronghua could hardly cry or laugh. ”What kind of evil fun are you doing? What are you doing watching me fall asleep?” she turned over and touched his cold fingers, which made her almost take back the quilt.

”Why are your hands so cold? You don't pay attention to keeping warm when you go out for so long,” Xue ronghua picked up his hand and put it into the quilt. ”Since you want to sit here and watch me sleep, don't be cold yourself. Put your hand in the quilt and see if it will be warmer.”

Chu Zongge's hand was tightly held by her hand. Although it was still slightly cool, his heart was warm. He raised the corners of his mouth and gave her a gentle smile, ”go to bed quickly. Don't blame me for your bad spirit tomorrow.”

Xue ronghua glanced at him angrily before he slowly lay down.

After half a meeting, there was a uniform sound of breathing from the quilt. Chu Zongge stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her. When she was sure that she had fallen asleep, she couldn't help smiling with relief.

In fact, when he entered the palace today, the emperor not only told him about his illness, but also that Miss Sun Er wanted to marry him, but he directly refused. However, the emperor will not be willing to rest. I don't know if he can wait until the day when they can get married.

Chu Zongge looked at her sweet sleeping face and couldn't help but bow his head and print a kiss on her side face. The clean breath of her body echoed between his nose and breath, which was a little comfort after returning home at night.

”Ronghua, you must get better quickly,” Chu Zongge said low. ”I can't wait to marry you.”

Zhao Qingyao and the butterfly shadow holding the little princess were walking in the imperial garden. Suddenly, she saw a sedan chair passing by the road. She couldn't help looking at the people in the sedan chair. The wind blew the curtain and exposed a corner of her face. She was slightly stunned and asked, ”whose little daughter is this? She is beautiful.”

”This is the second young lady of the sun family who entered the palace with the emperor's will.”

Zhao Qingyao frowned unhappily. ”The emperor vomited blood and fell ill last night. Now why do you want to take a new imperial concubine into the palace? You really don't pay attention to your body. If there is another time, the Palace won't pass.”

”Don't think about it, madam. The second miss of the sun family didn't enter the back palace,” butterfly shadow lowered her voice. ”It seems that the emperor pointed it out to Duanwang.”

”You're just wishful thinking,” laughed Zhao Qingyao. ”Prince Duan is going to marry the princess to be. Where is the second miss of the sun family? It's more absurd than she wants to be a concubine in the palace.”

”The maidservant's words are true. She heard them from the people in the imperial study,” butterfly shadow whispered. ”Didn't your mother hear that there is a second young lady in the sun family who is dead set on Duanwang. She finally hopes that Duanwang will come back from the state of Qi. She must marry Duanwang and be a concubine.”

”These two young ladies have no face and skin. It's the first time for the palace to see beggars who have to marry others,” said Zhao Qingyao with a sneer. ”However, Wang Duan has already had a prospective princess in his heart and doesn't like her at all. Besides, Lord sun doesn't have the official position of prime minister Xue. If she enters the palace, she can only be a concubine.”

”Although Duan Wang loves the prospective princess, who doesn't want to be three wives and four concubines.”

”We don't think Duanwang wants three wives and four concubines. Besides, the prospective princess will never let Duanwang take concubines,” Zhao Qingyao sighed softly. ”Just look at how Miss Sun Er returns from disappointment. Just be careful when Duanwang refuses. Don't refute the emperor's meaning and make the emperor angry again.”

Butterfly shadow said with a smile, ”if Duan Wang agrees, the empress thinks that the prospective princess is still willing to marry Duan Wang when Duan Wang takes a concubine?”

Zhao Qingyao turned her eyes, ”Duan Wang can't promise. Even if he does, the prospective princess will never agree to marry him again. She can't hold sand in her eyes, so she can't marry Duan Wang.”

The butterfly shadow showed an unfathomable smile, ”the slave maid really wanted to bet with her mother.”

Zhao Qingyao gave her a white look. ”There's something to bet on between us, but you are...” her heart moved, ”no, you have to hurry out of the palace and let the prospective princess into the palace.”

”Why, when the princess to be knows that the maidservant and the empress can't bet.”

”What are you gambling now? If you want anything, the palace will just promise you,” Zhao Qingyao had a bad feeling in her heart. ”It's impossible to come out with a Miss Sun er for no reason. The palace suspects that someone is causing trouble, so that Duan Wang and the princess to be can't get married.”

”Who,” butterfly shadow frowned, ”who is so boring that Wang can't get married?”

”Who else do you think,” Zhao Qingyao narrowed her eyes dangerously, ”except the one from Huade palace, who else wants Duanwang not to get married.”
