Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

"However, Xiao Changheng's thoughts are not unreasonable. I am new here, and it is easy to offend the officials in the court. When the time comes, I will be unpopular. If he stirs up trouble, my father will punish me." Chu Xi nodded lightly.

"Hmph, he has a beautiful idea. How can I blame Xiao Xi'er? It's too late for me to love her and pamper her." Nangong Rui said indifferently.

"Although His Majesty loves the Emperor very much, if the ministers in the court put pressure on her, even if Your Majesty loves the Emperor, he will have to face a small punishment or a big warning." Xia Houqi shook his head and sighed.

"Xiao Xi'er, don't be afraid. If the sky falls, I will hold it up. Just go ahead and do it. Those three guys from Hubu don't dare to embarrass you." Nangong Rui supported Chu Xi.

Hearing this, Chu Xi smiled and looked at Nangong Rui gratefully:
"My son knows that my father is the best!"

"My little darling, you are so kind, if you want the stars and the moon in the sky, I will find a way to pluck them for you!"

"Father—"

"Little Xi'er!"

Xia Houqi simply couldn't stand the sight of the father and daughter in front of him, and he almost got goosebumps.

After maintaining the precarious relationship between father and daughter, Nangong Rui began to teach Chu Xi how to review memorials. Chu Xi had always been interested in ancient memorials. She had seen several memorials in the museum before, but it was still the first one she had touched. Back.

Xia Houqi sat quietly aside and watched them reviewing the memorial. Although he didn't know the meaning of his staying, His Majesty did not drive him away, so he just watched from the side.

Unknowingly, it was time for lunch. Seeing that they seemed to have no intention of stopping, Xiahou Qi couldn't help but interrupt:

"Your Majesty, it's time to eat. If you're not hungry, Di Ji should be hungry too."

Hearing Xia Houqi's voice, Nangong Rui and Chu Xi both raised their heads and looked at him:

"Why haven't you left yet?" Nangong Rui looked confused.

The expression on Chu Xi's face was simply copied and pasted from Nangong Rui's face.

Xia Houqi: The feeling of being suddenly rejected is not pleasant at all.

"Ahem, since the regent is here, then stay and have dinner with me and Xiao Xi'er."

Nangong Rui also realized that he seemed to dislike him in his tone, and quickly made up for it.

Although it would be better not to say this remedy, it was a comfort to Xia Houqi.

The meal was served quickly. When Chu Xi saw Nangong Rui's standard meal, she was stunned.

"Father, do you usually eat so many dishes by yourself?"

"Yes, there are usually eighteen dishes, eight meat and eight vegetarian dishes, and two soups. Originally there were more, but later I felt it was too wasteful and withdrew more than a dozen dishes." Nangong Rui responded very calmly.

Chu Xi frowned immediately, and then educated her father seriously:

"Father, do you know Yuan Longping? If you knew Yuan Longping, you would not eat eighteen dishes alone."

"Who is Yuan Longping? Why have I never heard of him? From Xiao Xi'er's tone, do you know him?"

"Of course I know him, he is famous." Chu Xi nodded hurriedly.

"Then I would like to meet you if I have a chance."

This was the first time Nangong Rui heard other people's names from Chu Xi's mouth, and he was very curious, wondering if they were the people Chu Xi met while living outside.

"I guess I won't see my father anymore. Grandpa Yuan Longping is deceased, but he was really a great, great man." It has solved the food and clothing problems of many people!

Hearing what she said, Nangong Rui also had a look of regret in his eyes, "That's such a pity. Someone who can make Xiao Xi'er open her mouth to praise must be very good."

"Of course! I admire him. What he has always advocated is not to waste food. Therefore, father, from now on, the meals in the palace will not be wasted as long as they are not wasted. The food that father has not finished can be given to the palace people. It would be such a pity to dump it." Chu Xi persuaded Nangong Rui seriously.In fact, she had discovered before that she was wasting too much on food. As the emperor's concubine, she had ten dishes for every meal. She and Feiyun Huanyun couldn't finish the food for three people. There were regulations in the palace. The remaining dishes will be thrown away directly, so don’t waste it!

So she had wanted to propose it to Nangong Rui for a long time, but she just took advantage of today's opportunity to propose it.

"Okay, I will seriously consider Xiao Xi'er's proposal. Everyone in the palace should promote frugality."

"My father is really a wise king. I believe that with my father here, Wansheng Kingdom will be more prosperous."

Nangong Rui was so coaxed by Chu Xi's words that he couldn't find the north and was in a daze.

Xia Houqi watched the whole process, and the smile on his face never dropped:

I hope I have a kind heart, which is very rare.

After the meal, Nangong Rui let Chu Xi go back to Tianfeng Palace, and Xia Houqi personally escorted her back.

"Is your injury getting better?" Chu Xi asked, remembering the wound on Xia Houqi's lower abdomen.

"Well, it's all right."

"That's good. I'd better be careful in the future. I don't want to be widowed before we get married. I will definitely terminate the engagement with you and find another husband." Chu Xi said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Huh? Cancel the engagement? Find a good son-in-law again?" Xia Houqi's eyes were full of threats and warnings.

But Chu Xi didn't look at him and continued to output dangerously:

"Yes, if something happens to you, I can't just live by your memorial tablet at such an old age. I'm not even twenty yet."

Chu Xi kept talking without caring about the feelings of the person involved, Xia Houqi.

Xia Houqi just listened quietly to his fiancée thinking about what would happen to him after his accident. She sounded quite happy?

Along the way, both of them lived in peace.

Until he stepped into Tianfeng Palace and returned to Chu Xi's room.

Xia Houqi used his foot to close the door, blocking out Feiyun Huanyun and pressing Chu Xi against the door frame.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Emperor, are you quite happy when you say that?" Xia Houqi curled his lips and showed a very dangerous smile.

"It's okay, I'm not that happy."

Being pushed against the door, Chu Xi was immediately frightened and did not dare to fight back directly.

"Really? Just now, when I saw that Di Ji was getting excited, I couldn't bear to interrupt Di Ji. However, I have endured it until now, and I feel uncomfortable. Di Ji said, what should I do?"

"You please let go first, I. We have something to talk about."

Chu Xi always felt that Xia Houqi's eyes wanted to eat him up and wipe him clean, which was too scary.

"Aren't we here right now to talk about it?" Xia Houqi raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Chu Xi's lips intentionally or unintentionally.

Chu Xi noticed his gaze moving downward and immediately pursed her lips, trying to stop Xia Houqi's wild imagination in this way.

Xia Houqi, on the other hand, was amused by Chu Xi's way of hiding her ears. He stretched out his hand and pinched her chin directly, forcing her to open her lips slightly.

Then, under Chu Xi's surprised gaze, he kissed her lips, nibbling them with all his tenderness. (End of chapter)
