Concubine falling from heaven

Chapter 43 So He Was So Charming

"Dating? Do you mean tryst?" He squinted at her and asked, "Can the word tryst be used between husband and wife?"

"Don't you like it?" She looked at him with big innocent eyes, under the reflection of the light, it was so beautiful that it was unreal.

He chuckled and shook his head: "It's up to you."

After seeing her hear his answer, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, and his usual stern expression also became clear.

After Meng Zihan let go of his hand, he ran to a snack stand beside him, with a cute greedy look on his face, Mu Xuanchen could clearly see that she swallowed while looking at the snacks.

"Hehe!" Mu Xuanchen laughed twice.

Xiao Hai walked up to Mu Xuanchen in astonishment, stroked his chin and sized him up.

"What are you looking at?" Mu Xuanchen felt very uncomfortable being watched by the kid in front of him, and immediately changed his expression.

Xiao Hai was stunned for a moment, then took a step back and said, "Master, your attitude has changed too quickly, just now you smiled so much at the princess..." He pretended to shake his head helplessly while talking, "Why are you facing the princess?" Is the slave so fierce?"

"Xiao Hai! Is your skin itchy again? You can compare with the princess. You really can't control yourself." Ye Feng sneered.

"It seems that our princess is the only one in the world who can make the Lord laugh from the bottom of his heart."

Xiao Hai's words were exactly what everyone in the palace wanted to say. Of course, Mu Xuanchen also admitted this in his heart. This little girl is too capable. As long as she says a word, he will do everything like a demon. listen to her.

"Yeah? Where's the concubine?" Caiyun suddenly exclaimed.

The three of them looked up at the same time, and Meng Zihan's pretty figure disappeared before their eyes at some point.

Mu Xuanchen's heart was filled with uneasiness, his thick and handsome eyebrows furrowed into a ball, and he immediately strode towards the crowd.

Her figure is so small in this sea of ​​people, if you look around, you can't see her trace.

"Han'er..." He couldn't find her, so he began to recall her name.

"I'm here..." Among the crowd, Meng Zihan poked out her little head to respond to him.

Finally seeing her familiar face again, Mu Xuanchen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I saw her holding candied haws in her hand and said with a proud smile: "Look, there are still candied haws for sale at night!"

Those star-like bright eyes are so innocent, and that smile is so pure and innocent, so like a child who is not stained with the world, people can't help but want to pet her and care for her when they see her.

Mu Xuanchen looked at her smiling face absentmindedly, the reddish light and the silvery moonlight falling on her so perfectly complemented each other, it was so beautiful that he thought it was just an illusion.

Caiyun ran over sweating and said in a hurry: "My good princess, why did you disappear as soon as you turned around? You are so anxious to death."

Meng Zihan looked at Caiyun with a blushing face, couldn't help smiling, poked her on the forehead and said, "Look at you, I'm just going shopping, why are you in such a hurry?"

Seeing her nonchalant expression, Caiyun sighed lightly and said: "It's not only the servants who are anxious, but also our lord, you see, the lord is so anxious..."

Meng Zihan turned his head to look, and seeing Mu Xuanchen's handsome face, warmth suddenly surged in his heart.

Mu Xuanchen walked towards her with slow steps, stretched out his hand to hold her hand tightly, leaned slightly and whispered: "Why are you running around again?"

A trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes, but there was a childlike smile on her face, she raised her head and said proudly: "Hi! I have been to this street so many times, and I know what is there with my eyes closed."

Caiyun and the others were provoked into laughter by Meng Zihan's words.

Mu Xuanchen was no exception with a smile on his face: "Next time, if you can walk through the Chen Palace by yourself with your eyes closed, then I will believe you."

He had already seen her Lu Chi features, but fell in love with her even more because of her confusion.

"Ma'am... Ma'am..." Suddenly there was a rushing voice behind her.

Meng Zihan looked back at the person, and immediately stuck out his tongue and looked awkwardly at Mu Xuanchen who had a dazed face.

A peddler came panting to Meng Zihan holding a large bunch of candied haws. After a pause, he said word by word, "Husband, madam, you haven't paid me yet."

When the peddler saw Mu Xuanchen, he seemed relieved: "Great, I saw this gentleman again, did you pay the money this time?" Last time Meng Zihan didn't pay for the candied haws, or The money was paid by Mu Xuanchen, and Mu Xuanchen was so handsome, so the peddler recognized him at a glance.

Mu Xuanchen looked down at Meng Zihan who was glaring at the peddler angrily, the corner of his mouth raised, and he took out a tael of silver from his waist.

"Ah?" The peddler looked at the silver in his hand for a while, embarrassed.

"What? Can't find it?" Meng Zihan looked at the peddler with contempt and twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Small business, how can I find it?" The peddler said embarrassingly.

"Tch! After doing business for so long, you can't even find a tael of silver. How can you support your wife?" Meng Zihan even started to teach the peddler a lesson.

The peddler blushed and said, "This... the little one is not married yet..."

Caiyun and Xiaohai couldn't help laughing.

In the end, Ye Feng gave the peddler a few pennies, and the peddler took the money and left immediately.It's really unlucky to be ridiculed for not being able to support a wife for doing business well.

"Why did you forget to bring money again?" Mu Xuanchen asked softly.

Meng Zihan casually replied: "Isn't there you?"

Mu Xuanchen was obviously taken aback.

The warmth in my heart gradually deepened, and the smile on the corner of my mouth gradually enlarged.

Since when did she already regard him as her dependence without hesitation?This feeling made him very at ease and comfortable.

Meng Zihan didn't notice his expression, but saw him put the silver in his belt to attract her attention.

When Mu Xuanchen regained consciousness, she had already run to the stall selling silk handbags and purses next to her.

"Buy it if you like it." Seeing her holding a purse so selflessly, he thought she liked it.

She didn't speak, just turned her head and smiled brightly at him.

"Madam, all my purses are unique. Look at how delicate the handwork is and how beautiful the pattern is." The peddler kept boasting.

"What is unique, so exaggerated, maybe it was purchased from one place." Although I like it very much, it must not be too obvious when buying things. This is the most basic strategy for bargaining.

The peddler explained: "These are all embroidered by my daughter stitch by stitch. They are absolutely unique."

"Hand-embroidered...unique?" Meng Zihan whispered.

"Do you want to buy a few?" The peddler looked expectantly at the gorgeously dressed people opposite.

Meng Zihan's eyes lit up, he put down the injured purse and turned to leave.

"Why didn't you buy it? Don't you like it?" Mu Xuanchen asked suspiciously.

She handed the candied haws to Caiyun and took his hand and said, "I also want a unique purse, so I decided to embroider one myself."

"Can you still embroider purses?" He looked at her in disbelief. He had never seen her embroider, but he didn't dare to question her ability, because she had given him too many surprises...

"No way, I can learn." She smiled.

"It's just a purse, buy as many as you like, why bother?" Could it be that she really wants to learn eighteen skills?Now she is already so perfect, so perfect that anyone would want to plunder her. If she is any more perfect, even the heavens will be jealous of him having such a beautiful wife.

She pouted slightly and said, "How can it be the same? The one I embroidered is unique. If I buy one for you, it would be so boring."

"You mean...you want to embroider it for me?" He hesitated as he spoke, afraid that he would be sentimental again.

The surprise and anticipation that flashed in his eyes made Meng Zihan couldn't help but smile knowingly.It turned out that he also had such a simple side, and it was so simple that she had to be fascinated by it.

She shrugged mischievously, cast her eyes aside and pretended to be meaningless and said, "If you don't care about it, then forget it."

He stared at her affectionately, and his heart suddenly beat strongly. This feeling... was so beautiful that he couldn't believe it was real.

Is he dreaming?
For the first time, she did something for him.For the first time, she wanted to give him something.For the first time, when he heard that someone was going to give him something, he didn't feel disgusted, and his whole body was filled with happiness.

Her eyes became softer and softer, she slowly raised her hands, and finally reached behind his back to hug him tightly.

Time seemed to stand still.

At this moment...she forgot her own life experience, at this moment...she seemed to be the only two of them here, at this moment...she suddenly felt that being his wife was happiness, why didn't she feel it before?
The moment Ye Feng, Xiao Hai and Cai Yun hugged Meng Zihan tightly, they immediately reacted and turned their backs, surrounding the two of them inside.

After a long time, he reluctantly let her go.

"Is it cold?" He asked, holding her hand.

Every word he said would only focus on her, and the warmth in Meng Zihan's heart continued to flow upwards.

Fool, how can I be cold with you?
She really wanted to tell him that.However, when the words reached his mouth, he choked up and couldn't swallow them.It seems that she is really not suitable for confessing this kind of thing.

She looked up at him for a long time, but she never spoke.

It was almost at this moment that she realized that this perfect man like the one in the picture turned out to be her husband.It turned out that he was so handsome and charming that she couldn't help worrying that he would be snatched away by others when she wasn't paying attention.

The three of Ye Feng turned around just in time to see this blushing scene, and immediately turned around again.

Tonight... Is he too happy?He was so happy that he was afraid that all this would come and go too fast.Because...it feels too unreal...

He turned around and patted Caiyun on the shoulder, took the candied haws from her hand and whispered a few words into her ear, then pulled Mu Xuanchen into the crowd secretly.

"Let's go!" Caiyun tugged Xiaohai and Ye Feng's sleeves.

"Where are the prince and concubine?" Xiao Hai was still in a daze.

Ye Feng had a flash of doubt, but immediately understood everything, patted Xiao Hai on the head and said with a smile: "The candles of us can go back."

"Ah? Don't you want to go find your master? What if there are assassins?" Xiao Hai was still worrying needlessly.

Ye Feng said as he walked, "Are you doubting our martial arts, or do you want to be that unquenchable candle?"

Xiao Hai rubbed his head full of doubts, but Cai Yun laughed after hearing this.

The three of them disappeared into the crowd in the opposite direction to Mu Xuanchen and the others...

In another corner of the crowd, there is still a lonely figure hiding. The envy, relief and sadness in his eyes are so obvious, but hidden so deeply.

When did that seductive man whom he hadn't seen for a long time, who always smiled at others, start to feel sad?

It seems that she is very happy, he should be happy for her, shouldn't he?

Hua Yankang turned around and leaned against the wall to look at the stars in the sky. It's time for him to let go, because the man beside her now can give her the happiness she wants, and he has almost nothing now.

On the other side, Hua Yanjing and the maid Xiao Chuan went out to play, but they got lost with Hua Yankang on the way. On the way to search, they saw the scene of Mu Xuanchen and Meng Zihan's love, and couldn't help but get angry.

"It's really shameless to hug and kiss on the street like this." Hua Yanjing cursed through gritted teeth as she watched their figures disappear into the crowd.

Xiao Chuan looked intoxicated: "Wow... the princess is so happy!"

Suddenly his body was twisted, Xiao Chuan couldn't help exclaiming, and when he turned his head to see Hua Yanjing's angry face, he swallowed the pain back again.

"Damn girl, Wang Hao, Wang Hao's name is so nice, is she worthy? She's just a wild woman with unknown origin." After speaking, he glanced at the place where Meng Zihan and the others disappeared.

"I don't know what's going on with that Princess Chu Yun, why she can't even fight against a wild woman."

"Miss, if Princess Chu Yun marries His Highness Prince Chen, wouldn't you be jealous?" Xiao Chuan didn't understand very much.

Hua Yanjing couldn't help poking Xiao Chuan's stupid head: "It's really stupid! Do you think it's more embarrassing to lose to a princess or to lose to a wild woman?"

He sank into his thoughts and muttered softly, "If she gets Meng Zihan away, will that tricky Princess Chu Yun still be hard to deal with?" A wicked smile inadvertently rose from the corner of her mouth.

"Oh!" Xiao Chuan nodded with a half understanding.

Hua Yanjing ignored her, and was about to turn around and continue looking for Hua Yankang, but suddenly thought of something, and immediately warned Xiao Chuan: "Xiao Chuan, if you see my elder brother later, you must never tell what you saw just now. things, you know?"

"I understand." Xiao Chuan nodded vigorously.

Hua Yanjing was still preoccupied, just now Mu Xuanchen and Meng Zihan were so intimate on the street so ostentatiously, and I don't know if her stupid brother saw it.Because of Meng Zihan, he has almost nothing now, but he still thinks about it day and night, I really don't know what he thinks.

The main reason for coming out tonight is to let Hua Yankang come out to relax, who knew that such an annoying thing would happen, and Hua Yankang didn't know where he went, maybe he was hiding in the corner and drinking bored Here comes the wine.

"Forget it, let's go back, we won't look for him anymore..." Hua Yanjing was no longer in the mood to go shopping in the night market, and took Xiao Chuan to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Mu Xuanchen was pulled all the way by Meng Zihan not knowing where she was going, but he felt extremely satisfied.At least, now he feels that he is not alone, their hearts are close to each other.

"Wow, it's so beautiful here!"

At some point, Meng Zihan brought Mu Xuanchen to a lakeside, there was no one around, and the place seemed extraordinarily quiet, not as noisy as the market, and this feeling almost merged with Mu Xuanchen.

"Is it beautiful here?" He looked at her happy little face and asked with a smile.

It is indeed beautiful here, and he likes this feeling very much, or maybe he has spent more than 20 years in this feeling, so he can adapt to such loneliness and desolation better than anyone else.

But he knew that she was not suitable for such an environment. She liked places with a lot of people, fun, and excitement.

"Isn't this beautiful? I heard from Caiyun that this is the place where your lovers from the White Tiger Kingdom meet." She turned her head and smiled but said very seriously.

Mu Xuanchen was stunned again, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Mu Xuanchen looked at Meng Zihan for a while, and finally asked, "Why did you think of bringing me here?"

When Meng Zihan heard this, his head was covered with black lines.

This fool, do you want her to explain more clearly?

"Do you want to come here with someone else?" she asked mischievously.

He just smiled softly but didn't answer.

Without hearing his clear answer, Meng Zihan felt a little upset, turned around and ignored him, and just sat on the somewhat withered straw mat.

He knew she was angry, because she always wanted to hear some words of reassurance from him.

But in that case...it doesn't seem to be his specialty.

Mu Xuanchen looked down at her childish way of holding her head in anger, the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually widened, without thinking about it, she walked up to her and sat down next to her.

"Why are you so angry?" Gentle words floated out of his mouth leisurely.

Meng Zihan turned his head and raised his eyebrows at him provocatively: "Then you can divorce me according to the jealousy one of the seven rules!"

When mentioning the "seven rules", Mu Xuanchen laughed out loud, probably only she would use the "seven rules" to divorce her husband in the whole world, right?
"What are you laughing at?" She asked with her mouth curled up. Could it be that he felt that she was powerless to make trouble again?
Mu Xuanchen raised his hand to stroke her hair, and said dotingly: "It's fine if you don't divorce me, how dare I divorce you."

Only then did Meng Zihan suddenly realize that, remembering the fact that he used the ancient "seven outs" to divorce the prince, he couldn't help but blush and a punch punched him in the chest.

"Okay! You laugh at me."

He caught her attack effortlessly, holding her hand tightly to his chest.

She met his eyes, and was startled, so...his eyes are so beautiful, even though she is married to him, she still can't stop feeling like a deer.

"Tell me, did you take other women to places that I haven't been to?" Meng Zihan began to dig through his old accounts.

She couldn't believe it. A powerful and stylish man like him would not have a woman to match him.Or...he doesn't have a girl he likes?Even if he doesn't like it, there must be a lot of women who like him, so he has never been infatuated?

It suddenly occurred to him that he was so proficient in that area, he didn't know how many women he had practiced with...

Thinking of this, my heart began to feel uncomfortable again.

He looked into her eyes earnestly, seeing her expectations, but he was a little bit bitter. It turned out that he had lived for more than 20 years, but he had never liked anyone, except this mischievous and jealous girl in front of him.

"It seems not." He replied while thinking.

"What do you mean it doesn't seem to be?" She was very dissatisfied with the answer, "So there is?"

Mu Xuanchen began to ponder. At his age, ordinary princes and grandsons already had wives and concubines, but he spent the years when she didn't show up in solitude.

For everyone, the palace is a dreamed and unattainable place, but for him, it is just a deserted place to live.It was imprinted in his heart, so no matter what means he used, he would keep her by his side.

"Forget it, forget it, I won't ask any more." Seeing him lost his mind, she shook her hand angrily, and asked further, what if she heard something she didn't want to hear?
However, what qualifications does she have to care about these things?
Before coming here, didn't she also have her childhood sweetheart Chu Ruige?How come they have been to more than one place?
Although she didn't regard him as a boyfriend at that time, but he wholeheartedly regarded him as a girlfriend. I don't know if there is someone around him now?

"What are you thinking about?"

Mu Xuanchen's familiar and deep voice brought her back to her thoughts.

She didn't answer, but just asked, "Don't you have any questions to ask me?"

He looked at her unexpectedly, because he had a lot of questions to ask, many puzzles to solve, but he was afraid to ask, for fear that she would not want to answer.In fact, she really refused to say anything before, even after marrying him, she still kept a secret that only belonged to her.

"Do you know what I want to ask?" He put away his astonished eyes, and wrapped her tightly in his arms with the cloak.

Meng Zihan leaned gently on his chest, smiled and sighed softly: "Do you want to ask me where I come from? What is my background?"

He just smiled deeply, looking at her with a cold and handsome face, who seemed to be uncertain, waiting for her to open her heart.

"Do you believe everything I say?" Although she thought it was impossible, she still asked.

"As long as you say it yourself."

His answer made her feel hot, and she wrapped her arms around his waist, bringing herself closer to him.

"Actually...even I can't figure out how to appear here. I only know that one night I saw a purple light. When the light got closer and closer, it was so dazzling that I couldn't open my eyes until I was surrounded by that light. Afterwards, the whole person began to sink and kept sinking. The feeling was really scary..."

Recalling that night, Meng Zihan still has lingering fears to this day.

Sensing her fear, he subconsciously hugged her tightly with his arms.

No wonder she often frowned in her sleep, and sometimes sweated. He thought she was just having a nightmare. It turned out that he didn't know that there was such a panic in her heart all the time.

"I don't know how long it took, and my whole body slowly became as light as a goose feather, floating in a space I had never known before. I almost gave up the idea of ​​survival, thinking that I would die, but I was still very scared, so I just closed it. Don't think about it with your eyes. But when I regained consciousness, I opened my eyes and saw..."

"But I saw lying in someone else's arms." Mu Xuanchen raised his lips to pick up her words.

Meng Zihan shook his head mischievously: "That's not true. At that time, I didn't know whose arms I was in. I only knew that when I opened my eyes, I saw a face that looked like I owed him money, without even a smile."
