Nangong Wanyue's eyes turned red when Nangong Fuyang spoke, and she lowered her head in shame, not daring to say a word.

After a long time, Nangong Fuyang seemed to realize that his tone was too harsh. He raised his forehead and then looked at his sister:

"I'm sorry, Brother Huang said in a bad tone, but I really think about you. Wan Yue, you should be more sensible and don't act too fast. After the mother concubine and Brother Huang have everything firmly in their hands, what do you want? Whatever you want, Brother Huang will give it to you."

Nangong Fuyang's words were spoken from the bottom of his heart.

Nangong Wanyue also sniffed, and promised Nangong Fuyang that he would not take the initiative to provoke Nangong Chuxi again.

Hearing this, Nangong Fuyang smiled happily.

"Okay, don't cry anymore. You are such a big person, and people will laugh at you if they see you."

"It's not all because of the emperor's brother who hurt me. I was scared to tears by the emperor's brother." Nangong Wanyue muttered in a low voice.

"Okay, okay, it's all your fault, brother. In order to compensate us, Wan Yue, Wan Yue stayed in Fuyang Palace to have dinner at night. Brother Emperor, let the cook give you your favorite dish, okay?"

Nangong Fuyang smiled, and then coaxed softly.

Nangong Wanyue snorted proudly and reluctantly agreed.

On the other side, Chu Xi and Xia Houqi both went to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Liu Cheng and Chen Zihe exchanged positions. Now Chen Zihe is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Because Liu Cheng had something in Di Ji's hands, he didn't dare to complain and could only deal with Chen Zihe honestly.

After the previous conversation between Nan Xi and Chen Zihe, Chen Zihe decided to completely surrender to Di Ji, and even found out the account books of Liu Cheng and Qin Beiyuan's corruption and sent them to Nan Xi.

This is also the reason why Liu Cheng and Qin Beiyuan wanted to kill Nan Xi.

But now, Nan Xi can control all of them.

Liu Cheng and Qin Beiyuan didn't know that Chen Zihe betrayed them, and Chen Zihe didn't know that they sent someone to assassinate Nan Xi. This was a way to balance them.

"Nan Xi has now taken care of the household department in order. There is nothing special that needs to be dealt with next, so you don't need to worry too much."

Xia Houqi's unintentional words made Chu Xi fall into deep thought.

She knew very well that it was Nan Xi who allowed herself to occupy her body and made her appear to meet Xia Houqi.

But she didn't know that Nan Xi had done so many things before letting herself appear.

"What's wrong? Your face suddenly looks bad. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Seeing Chu Xi's face turn pale instantly, Xia Houqi couldn't help but expressed concern.

"I'm fine. I just suddenly felt that Nan Xi had a hard time. During my absence, she did too many things, but I..."

Before she finished speaking, Xia Houqi had already understood what she meant.

"What are you thinking? Nan Xi did this not only for you, but also for herself. You are the same person. Sooner or later, the household department will have to take care of it. It's the same no matter who does it." Xia Houqi comforted him. .

Hearing this, Chu Xi slowly raised her head and looked at him:
"My lord, who do you think you like more between me and her?"

Xia Houqi intuitively felt that this was a proposition, and immediately frowned, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing his hesitation, Chu Xi felt her heart tightening:

He couldn't make a choice, could he?
"Is this issue important to you?"

Xia Houqi asked rhetorically.Nan Xi asked this question, and Chu Xi also asked it. Xia Houqi didn't know the meaning of this question. Aren't they the same person?It's just that different aspects of a person are magnified. What's the difference?
"Well, it's very important. I want to know your answer." Chu Xi replied very firmly.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi frowned and then fell into deep thought.

Chu Xi also waited patiently without rushing him, giving him enough time to think carefully.

I don't know how long he thought about it, but he finally raised his eyes and looked into Chu Xi's innocent eyes:

"I like your innocence, and I also like Nan Xi's boldness and fearlessness. If you force me to choose one, I can't. You are both a part of Nangong Chuxi and cannot be separated, so I can't choose either."

This time, Xia Houqi didn't call himself 'my king', but himself. He was expressing his true inner thoughts.

If his words were heard by Nan Xi, Nan Xi would definitely complain to his face about his philandering and completely scumbag remarks.

But after Chu Xi heard his words, she felt a little bit lucky:
At least he didn't choose Nan Xi without hesitation, right?This proves that she and Nan Xi still have a chance to compete and will not lose too badly.

"It doesn't matter, I can understand your thoughts. The existence of Nan Xi and I is too special. It's really embarrassing for you to ask you like that." Chu Xi smiled in relief.

Xia Houqi felt that Chu Xi's smile was a little sad, and his heart ached, and then he raised his hand and rubbed her head:
"Don't think nonsense. Everyone's existence has meaning. If it didn't have meaning, there wouldn't be two of you."

"Thank you for your comfort."

At this moment, Chu Xi was really relieved.

"I'm not trying to comfort you, I'm just telling the truth."

Xia Houqi said very arrogantly. Hearing this, Chu Xi couldn't help laughing.

"By the way, Your Majesty has already granted marriage to you and me before. Now it's time to make a betrothal gift. Do you have any betrothal gifts you want? If not, I will prepare it according to my own wishes."

After all, the betrothal gift was given to her, so it would be better to ask her for her own opinion.

Hearing Xia Houqi's question, Chu Xi's eyes suddenly widened, filled with confusion:

"Recruitment? So soon?"

"Is it fast? It has been delayed for a while, otherwise this process should have been carried out on the second day after His Majesty granted the marriage." Xia Houqi didn't think it was so fast.

Well, Chuxi couldn't react.

But thinking about it carefully, it has been a month or two since the marriage was granted, so the offer seems reasonable.

"Just watch and prepare. I don't have any special requirements. Have you asked Nan Xi? What did she say?"

Chu Xi felt that they had different temperaments after all, and she didn't want anything in particular, but she couldn't guarantee that Qi Nan Xi wanted something, so she asked.

Hearing Chu Xi's question, Xia Houqi showed a troubled expression:
Not to mention asking her what kind of betrothal gift she wanted, Nan Xi tried her best to avoid him during this period, how could he have the chance to ask?

"What's wrong? Did she say something?"

"No, I forgot to ask her. Anyway, I will hire her first. If she wants anything else, I will fill it in when the time comes."

What Xia Houqi thought in his heart was to kill first and pay later. In any case, he gave the betrothal gift first. He could get whatever betrothal gift Guan Nanxi wanted!Just make it up afterwards, it's not a big problem.

In fact, Xia Houqi couldn't tell how he felt. He always felt that if he asked Nan Xi what he meant, he would have no choice but to accept the betrothal gift.
