Chapter 163 I'm Afraid You'll Regret
Wen Hemian did not regret choosing to help Xie Lang, but when he thought about his current situation, he couldn't help but wipe away tears of sadness.
"It's written."
Xie Lang was concentrating fully. He noticed Wen Hemian's gaze on him and felt a little secretly happy. He pretended to be calm and finished the task at hand.
As a result, he looked up and noticed the complicated expression in Wen Hemian's eyes, which he hadn't had time to retract. He said, "?"
Xie Lang's tone was a little hesitant: "Hanshuang, why are you looking at me like this?"
He touched his cheek. There shouldn't be any dirt on it, right?
Wen Hemian coughed and said nonchalantly: "I just thought of something, it's not important."
She knew that Xie Lang didn't like her calling him childish, and that he probably had a competitive mentality. There was no need to argue about it, so she could just skip the topic.
She moved her eyes to the two imperial edicts and laughed, "You are in such a hurry to finish writing them, are you afraid that I will run away?"
Xie Lang was a little traumatized by the word "run". He said in a low voice: "I'm afraid you'll regret it. If you write it and stamp it earlier, I'll feel more at ease."
In fact, it was not unexpected, but Xie Lang felt that everything that happened today was too beautiful, like a dream, and he urgently wanted to leave some traces to prove that this was real.
Nothing is better than black and white.
"Do I look like someone who doesn't keep his word?"
After Wen Hemian finished speaking, he met Xie Lang's meaningful gaze and fell silent.
Well, she seems to be doing so with Xie Lang, and there are clues to follow, so it's no wonder that he would have such concerns.
"If Han Shuang has nothing else to say, just stamp it."
Xie Lang took the seal and handed it to Wen Hemian.
Over the years, people said that the emperor had changed, becoming more indifferent, cruel and ruthless, but when it came to Wen Hemian, he was still willing to give her the greatest patience and tenderness. Even at this moment, he gave her the right to stamp the document, leaving room for regret.
Wen Hemian carefully read the contents of the imperial edict and smiled: "That's it, I have nothing else to say."
When Xie Lang is not serious, he is really not serious, but he knows his limits and will not play around with important matters. The content of the imperial edict is quite standard, and Wen Hemian cannot find any fault with it.
After dipping his hand in the ink, Xie Lang's expression slightly changed. He raised his hand to cover the back of her hand, interlaced his fingers, and pressed down hard with her.
The young man had long knuckles with distinct joints, and his palms were a circle larger than Wen Hemian's. They were even hotter, and at the same time, the heat made people feel at ease for some reason.
Wen Hemian blinked his eyelashes, feeling overwhelmed with emotion for a moment.
Both imperial edicts were stamped in this way.
Not planning to make it public for the time being, Xie Lang carefully rolled it up and put it in a drawer, with a happy smile on his face.
He happily leaned over and kissed Wen Hemian on the cheek.
At least we don't have to look for opportunities to launch a sneak attack anymore, it's all fair and square.
Xie Lang was secretly delighted.
Seeing how excited he was, Wen Hemian didn't want to spoil his fun, so he smiled helplessly as well.
-
Everyone in the Taiji Hall was keenly aware of the changes.
——It’s hard not to notice.
Specifically, His Majesty happily moved his belongings to where Lord Wen lived.
Although their things have been mixed together since they came back, it seemed different then than it is now.
If there is any word that can describe the emperor's current performance, Lai Xi can only think of one - triumphant and elated.
Lord Wen has a good temper, is kind to others, gentle and amiable. Everything about him is good, except that he seems a little emotional. As a teacher, he can give Your Majesty a lot of care, but as a partner, he may not be able to respond to Your Majesty's passionate emotions.
Lai Xi was very worried at first that His Majesty would fail, and therefore pushed Lord Wen further and further away.
Fortunately, all the hard work has paid off, and things did not turn out the worst he expected, and His Majesty has finally made some substantial progress with Lord Wen.
No longer having to worry all the time, Lai Xi walked with confidence and served the emperor even more attentively. Whenever the emperor was in a good mood, he would even get reward money. Anyone would be happy.
Not only him, but all the palace servants serving near the Taiji Hall felt it deeply. For a moment, the whole palace was filled with an atmosphere of joy and happiness.
Wen Hemian noticed this change and seriously reflected on whether he and Xie Lang had brought too much pressure to others these days.
The answer must be yes.
They both have distinguished identities, and no one knows what outsiders will think of them.
Shaking his head to get rid of the thought, Wen Hemian found a time to call Qingyun into the palace.
Qingyun is a maid in the palace. This is her first time entering the palace. With someone leading the way, she was not too restrained. When she saw that Wen Hemian looked good, she was obviously relieved.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"What can I do in the palace?" Wen Hemian laughed. She met Qingyun's eyes and said after a moment's consideration, "Qingyun, I asked you to come to the palace just to ask, do you want to continue to stay in the palace, or stay with me?"
Qingyun realized something instantly, and she was slightly distracted: "Miss and His Majesty..."
Wen Hemian pulled her to sit down, poured her a cup of tea, and let her calm down. He said slowly, "It's what you think, but don't worry too much. Your Majesty didn't force me to do this, but we talked it out. I am...willing."
Wen Hemian's words did not dispel all of Qingyun's concerns.
Her tone was still a little excited: "But what are your and His Majesty's identities? If His Majesty regrets, there are still the harem and a group of ministers who support him. You..."
"I have discussed this matter with my father."
Wen Hemian gently interrupted her, took her hand, patted it, and said softly but firmly: "Just because he is His Majesty doesn't mean I have no way out. I am willing to believe him and give him this trust."
Moreover, if Xie Lang changed his heart, he would no longer be the Xie Lang she knew.
"Ok."
There was no point in saying anything more at this point. Qingyun knew that his young lady had made up her mind, so he could only try his best to accept it. He looked a little lonely.
"So I want to ask for your opinion." Wen Hemian said, "But don't worry, I will go back to the palace from time to time. It doesn't matter where I am."
But by then there might be a tail following me, Wen Hemian thought in his heart.
Qingyun thought for a moment and said, "I will stay in the palace. No matter when the young lady comes back, everything will be the same as before."
Qingyun thought very clearly that if she stayed in the palace, she would be able to stay with the young lady all the time, but not only would it be less comfortable, but she would also be worried about the affairs of the palace.
She grew up with the young lady and has the responsibility to help her share the responsibilities.
"That's fine." Wen Hemian knew her personality and was not surprised to see her make this choice. "Staying in the palace will indeed give you a lot of freedom."
Qingyun's eyes warmed up when he heard this. He looked up and saw Wen Hemian's comforting look, and he was even more moved: "Yeah."
Seeing Qingyun's reserve, Wen Hemian didn't keep her for long. After saying a few words, he let her leave the palace.
Xie Lang waited outside for a long time, and finally came in after they finished talking. After he sat down, he raised his eyebrows and said, "The imperial examination for women is now open, why don't you consider letting her take the exam, Master?"
Xie Lang said this without any ulterior motive. There were still few women in the court. If more of them could come out, Wen Hemian would definitely be very happy.
"That also depends on whether Qingyun has that idea."
Wen Hemian smiled and said, "At the moment, it seems that it will take some time for people to accept the fact that you and I are together."
Xie Lang pursed his lips, rarely complaining: "She is someone that the Grand Tutor cares about, I won't bother with her."
I vaguely remember hearing this statement before.
Wen Hemian readily agreed: "I understand. Your Majesty is the most generous."
Xie Lang insisted stubbornly: "It's yours."
He is not someone else's.
