Chapter 1034: Chapter 1032: His Love Is All Over Me
“No! Don’t be so fierce! Is it wrong for me to miss my husband and come to the palace to see him?” Su Yingxue pouted, her voice tinged with a touch of grievance.
Where is the wrong in that?
“You could simply enter the palace, although I have not yet brought you here, the palace gate is always open for you,” Chu Yihan’s tone was gentle and full of compassion,
but with a hint of relief.
So, she would also stealthily come to see him because she missed him.
“Am I not plainly by your side now? And now I feel that, with the baby growing, I don’t dare to climb over walls and jump around anymore,” Su Yingxue rubbed her belly, which had grown round.
With this little one in her belly, she truly couldn’t behave recklessly anymore.
“Your Majesty, please don’t!”
Mo Qi, terrified, immediately knelt down, “Before you think of climbing over the wall, I will tear that wall down myself, so you can walk through safely.”
Whichever wall she wanted to climb, he would dismantle!
He only hoped she wouldn’t joke around with herself and the prince in her belly.
Chu Yihan would have his chief imperial guard flayed alive!
Mo Qi’s scared appearance made Su Yingxue laugh. She patted Mo Qi’s shoulder, “You don’t have to be so frightened! For the emperor, for our child, I definitely won’t be reckless anymore, and moreover… the person I most want to see is already by my side. Why would I climb any walls then?”
After speaking, Su Yingxue, lightheartedly clinging to Chu Yihan’s arm, nestled up against his imperial robe that carried a faint scent of ambergris.
When he got up, he said he didn’t know if pregnant people could use spices, so he removed all the spices from the chamber, lest the strong scent might affect her and the baby.
Actually, ambergris is harmless.
But the faint scent on his body was the best proof of his love for her.
Chu Yihan rubbed Su Yingxue’s head, his eyes filled with endless tenderness.
Knowing he was too conspicuous, Mo Qi reported a matter and then excused himself.
He said Leng Yi had been waiting outside all night to see Chu Yihan, and Su Qingzhi was there, too. Although Su Qingzhi didn’t wait until last night and went back to rest, he returned to the palace early this morning and was now waiting with Leng Yi.
Chu Yihan said he needed to go out and deal with this matter, and asked Su Yingxue to rest in the chamber for a while.
Su Yingxue felt a little reluctant to let him go, wrapping her arms around his waist, her voice soft as she asked, “Grandpa and Prime Minister Leng came together, is it about the matter of the military expedition?”
“It’s about your big matter. Yesterday when you fainted from anger, I had Zhuo Junli locked up in the dungeon,” Chu Yihan pinched her cheek.
“What? You are so fierce! No wonder the old Prime Minister had to stand outside the hall all night. That Zhuo Junli… he harbors no good intentions!”
Su Yingxue snorted softly, thinking it served him right to be locked up for wanting to select concubines for Chu Yihan.
Chu Yihan, however, understood Zhuo Junli’s intentions, “If it weren’t for him spreading rumors, leading you to the inn, when would our misunderstanding have been resolved? This fellow always takes the unorthodox path, but the result is that I am quite pleased now, and I have to go rectify a concern of his.”
“What concern?” Su Yingxue was curious.
“I will tell you when I return tonight. Since you entered the palace today, you are not allowed to leave. Be good and wait for me in the chamber,” Chu Yihan held her hand as if afraid she would run off, encircling her in his embrace for a long while before slowly letting her go.
Su Yingxue stood in place, her whole body filled with the faint scent of ambergris given to her by Chu Yihan, the warmth from his body still lingering in her heart.
