Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

Chapter 128: The Gloomy Eunuch and the Imperial Concubine (31)

"Your Highness, I have found out that the eunuch Xiao An does hang out with Ming Xiuyi quite frequently.

During Ming Xiuyi's pregnancy, the emperor transferred him to Ming Xiuyi's side to protect her. "

At the top, Xiao Cheng sat behind the desk with his head propped up, his voice full of coldness and solemnity,

"Did you check his identity before he entered the palace?"

"I checked. His parents were farmers from Lijia Village. They died early. He had no other options, so he entered the palace to make a living."

The subordinate knelt on the ground and reported.

Xiao Cheng's eyes flickered as he recalled the scene he saw that day.

The woman looked up with worry in her eyes. Was she worried about her father, or that... Eunuch Xiao An?

The staff member next to him frowned, not understanding why His Highness was investigating a concubine. He spoke at the right time:

"Your Highness, during the Spring Hunt, remember to eliminate the troubles that may come afterward!"

Xiao Cheng's face was solemn. He nodded and whispered:

"Don't worry, sir. It's just a small test. I don't expect it to be successful in one go."

The staff nodded with satisfaction, very satisfied with the master they chose, and couldn't help but sigh,

"You were the one who led the troops wisely and led the charge into Shengjing City. That position should have been yours..."

Xiao Cheng leaned back and sneered.

"If the old man had not had so few sons, I would have been stripped of my military power and crushed into the mud by him long ago."

The staff shook his head and said nothing more, but just reminded,

“The Emperor has granted you a marriage, and I think this is a good opportunity to win over Minister Xia.

The emperor is already old, and Your Highness should start planning for an heir early."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Cheng also deeply agreed.

For the sake of his great cause, he convinced himself more than once late at night that marriage is temporary, and as long as he can get that position, what else can't he have?

Whenever he thought of this, the woman's figure always appeared deeply in his mind, and he intuitively couldn't use his own thoughts to replace her.

A woman like that should be high and mighty, not suffer any grievances, and live a life of wealth, glory, and health without worries.

After coming to his senses, he was still quite angry at Concubine Xian's presumptuous behavior.

But now that it has become a foregone conclusion, and she is his mother, Xiao Cheng can't really blame her, so he just said calmly:

"Since the marriage has been granted, I will not regret it."

*

On the eighth day of June, an auspicious day, His Royal Highness Prince Cheng of the Xinxuan Dynasty got married.

To show his appreciation, the emperor personally visited Prince Cheng's mansion and did not return to the palace until the wedding was over.

In the bridal chamber, Xia Changle was wearing a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe. The delicate red veil covered her shy face, making her look like a happy bride.

But most of the time had passed and no matter how long they waited, they still didn't see the groom enter the bridal chamber.

The shyness on Xia Changle's face was quickly replaced by anger, and he asked harshly:

"Where is His Royal Highness Cheng Wang?"

The personal maid knew her temper well, so she did not dare to delay and hurried out to look for her.

In the end, he only brought back one sentence, "His Royal Highness Prince Cheng is drunk and has rested in the front yard."

Xia Changle jumped up instantly, waving away the dazzling red veil, her face twisted with anger, and she screamed:

"I have never been humiliated like this in my life. Let's go to the front yard to invite the prince!"

Xiao Cheng drank a lot of wine today and tried to numb himself with alcohol, but with little effect.

Just when I had a splitting headache, I heard the noise outside getting louder and louder.

"My Lord, today is our wedding night. You are leaving me alone like this. Aren't you afraid that I will complain to my father?"

Xia Changle's angry and shrill voice instantly spread into the room, and Xiao Cheng's face looked extremely bad.

He suddenly opened the door, and looked down at this "Princess" coldly from a high place. His voice was cold and emotionless.

"Xia, be content. You will have the honor of Princess Cheng. Don't worry about anything more."

Xia Changle couldn't believe what he heard, and subconsciously asked:

"My Lord, what do you mean by this?"

Xiao Cheng sneered directly.

"What I mean is that I hate a woman who casually ruins the reputation of other women."

You wouldn't know until you check. Once you check, you will find out that since Ruan Guannan entered the palace, Xia Changle has to make up a few sentences for her at every banquet.

As a result, the women in Beijing had a bad impression of General Ruan's daughter who had not been seen for a long time.

It was not until Ruan Guannan amazed everyone at the Armed Forces Reward Banquet that this groundless rumor faded away.

Xia Changle glanced away uncomfortably, feeling guilty.

But she was not a fool. After she realized what was happening, she became extremely angry and screamed in despair.

"Xiao Cheng, do you like that bitch? Doesn't she just have a vixen-like face? Why do you treat your new wife like this because of her?"

The constant questioning had gradually overwhelmed Xia Changle's rationality.

"You actually disregarded human ethics and cared about my father's concubines. Have you been secretly having an affair for a long time?"

"presumptuous!"

Xiao Cheng strode down the stairs, grabbed Xia Changle's neck fiercely, and tightened it suddenly.

The person who was shouting just now fell silent in an instant, his face full of discomfort and fear.

Xiao Cheng's eyes turned red, and he leaned close to her ear and spoke coldly:

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will make sure you don't see the sun tomorrow!"

After saying that, he threw her away in disgust and ordered in a deep voice:

"The princess is not feeling well, send her back and take good care of her."

Xia Changle fell to the ground and coughed miserably. Before she went out in the morning, she was still dreaming of becoming the mother of a country, but she didn't expect her dream to be shattered in the evening.

Flowers bloom and fall in four seasons, and three years pass in a hurry.

During this period, Ruan Guannan and Xia Luoning both received promotions.

The emperor now has six princes. The fifth prince, Ming Zhaoyi, and the sixth prince, Chun Guipin, are the two youngest heirs in the palace.

During these three years, even though Xiao Hong selected a lot of new people, there was no news.

Li Huaiyi has completely taken control of the Imperial Household Department and provided a huge shelter for Ruan Guannan and his son.

Tonight, Xiao Huaiyi went to the side hall on time to take a look at his son.

The little guy was sleeping soundly with a little snore. Xiao Huaiyi gently tucked the corner of the quilt for him and turned to go to the inner hall.

He skillfully took off his outer clothes, leaving only his inner clothes, and then quietly slipped into the land of gentleness.

He hugged the woman who was also sleeping, and his thin lips gently wandered all over her face, not missing any place, and finally lingered on her cherry lips for a long time.

The man's breath was scorching hot, which woke Ruan Guannan up from his sleep.

The moment she opened her eyes, the man's passionate features were reflected in her sparkling eyes.

Ruan Guannan stretched out her arms and wrapped them around his neck, responding to him tenderly.

For a long time, Xiao Huaiyi held the woman tightly in his arms. Even though he was extremely eager, he still did not take the next step.

Ruan Guannan's eyes widened immediately, and she was so angry that she kicked the man hard out of the bed.

The man who was kicked stood stupidly in the hall, looking somewhat pitiful in the reflection of the moonlight.

Xiao Huaiyi carefully walked to the bedside and tried to climb back onto the bed little by little, not even daring to hug her.

He just pressed tightly against the woman's back and slowly moved to hold her small hand that was placed on her chest.

Ruan Guannan exhaled deeply, turned around and looked him in the eye, and said angrily:

"What's wrong with you? You flirt with me and then run away? If you do this again, get out of Chaoyang Palace!"

She really hated it. For such a long time, this bastard just kissed her and then left, leaving her hanging every time.

Before, she was considerate of the fact that he had just taken over the Imperial Household Department and was very busy, but was this going to never end?

She grabbed the man by the collar and brought him to her, threatening him harshly:

"Do you believe me? I can turn you into a real eunuch?!"

Xiao Huaiyi stared at the pair of beautiful eyes filled with anger, but only for a moment. He quickly pursed his lips, and the laughter that he had been holding back for a long time finally overflowed from his mouth.

Ruan Guannan instantly became angry and stood up angrily, straddling the man's waist with a cold smile on her lips.

"Are you kidding me?"

Seeing that the woman was really angry, Xiao Huaiyi stopped laughing.

He stretched out his arms and pulled the person down to hold her in his arms. He gently rubbed her hair with his chin, sighed, and then said in a hoarse voice:

"Jiao Jiao'er, you know very well that it takes a lot of willpower to control myself when I touch you. I wish I could be with you all the time."

Ruan Guannan raised his head, frowning, "Then why are you doing this?"

Xiao Huaiyi looked quietly into the depths of those watery eyes, and after a long while he whispered:

"I was afraid... the day you gave birth to Ling'er, I was very afraid..."

Ruan Guannan was stunned. He didn't expect this to be the reason.

She let out a helpless breath and lay in the crook of his neck in silence.

After a long while, she stood up, stared into the man's eyes and said word by word:

"Xiao Huaiyi, the palace is dangerous. You have done a good job. You have protected Ling'er and me very well."

Xiao Huaiyi looked at her without saying anything, and then listened to the woman say:

"Don't be afraid, Ling'er and I will always be with you."

The man's arms tightened, his dark eyes tightly circled the woman's figure, the emotions surging in his eyes were deep and strong.

He turned around and gently placed the delicate girl under him. As soon as he leaned over, the woman's tender white arms wrapped around his neck.

Xiao Huaiyi pressed close to her, rubbing the tip of his nose against her chin, and smiled softly.

"My queen, Ling'er seems too lonely alone. I will work hard with you to give him a younger sister."

The mockery in his eyes was obvious.

Every time he called himself a "slave", Ruan Guannan always felt inexplicably excited.

Xiao Huaiyi had obviously discovered this point of hers long ago, and always teased her like this on purpose when he was in love!

Ruan Guannan lifted the man's chin with one hand, and held the man's thin lips with her red lips, biting and sucking gently.

The soft body immediately attached itself to him and stuck tightly to his body.

Xiao Huaiyi's eyes darkened instantly, and he responded to the woman's affection enthusiastically.

He felt the skin under his palms was incredibly smooth, and his nose was filled with the rich fragrance coming from her body. He couldn't push it away, nor did he want to.

He only wanted to sink into this beautiful dream with her.
