The cold snow has not subsided, but it is still falling.

Lin Zhaoyan lay on his back in the hot bath, as if he could hear the "squeak" sound of snow pressing against plum branches outside the window.

The warm water slowly slid past her, and the jasmine incense burning in the hall calmed down. She was almost drowsy, but her heart was unprecedentedly satisfied and calm.

"Empress, are you doing well?" The careful urging sounded in his ears by the palace maid.

Lin Zhaoyan opened his eyes and saw the maids standing next to the pond, and couldn't help but feel helpless.

This is not good in the palace. It is restricted everywhere, and even if you take a bath, you can't enjoy it.

However, she couldn't make the palace maids embarrassed, because she didn't have to think about it and knew that it was Xiao Qi urging her.

This guy just now shamelessly expressed his desire to bathe with her!

It is true that being the king of a country is not shameful.

While Lin Zhaoyan complained in his heart, he slowly stood up from the water with the maid holding her hand.

Unexpectedly, without the care of the warm pool water, her lower body still felt a little painful. Thinking of the man's uncontrollable fierce attack last night, her cheeks were unconsciously burning red.

Fortunately, the heat in the bathtub was steaming, and the palace maids did not notice it. After dressing her in an orderly manner, they helped her turn over the screen and headed towards the inner room.

Lin Zhaoyan glanced at a glance at Xiao Qi who had been cleaned, his ink hair was scattered, and he was wearing only a white dress. He was sitting and lying on the couch to read a book.

What was burning inside the house was the unburned red candle on the wedding night. Under the candlelight, he seemed to be shining brightly, so dazzling that he couldn't take his eyes away.

Perhaps because he heard the movement, he put down the book and looked up, facing Lin Zhaoyan's trance eyes.

A smile unconsciously made him show a bit of charming charm, "Come here." He waved to her.

Lin Zhaoyan walked over as he said, but before he could stand firm, he pulled him hard and fell into his arms.

The sudden gravity made her mind clear a little. She wanted to struggle, but the next second he was overwhelmed on the bed. The book he had just watched was already ruthlessly thrown on the floor by him.

"What are you doing?" Lin Zhaoyan was slightly angry and reached out and pushed his chest to try to get up.

"You seduce me." But the evil man complained first.

"Where do I have it!" Lin Zhaoyan was frustrated and glared at him fiercely.

"You have it." Xiao Qi refused to let go, bowed his head and buzzed by her neck: "You are dressed like this, and you are still staring at me just now. What isn't you seducing me?"

She was just confused by the beauty.

Lin Zhaoyan was speechless. Thinking of all the things in Yanling, he knew that he could not compare with him in terms of playing rogues, so he had to reason with him, "It's already Yin time now, and you're going to go to the morning court for a few hours, don't make trouble."

Xiao Qi saw a move and said, "I was newly married last night, so all civil and military officials would not be so ignorant of the current affairs."

"But I'm very tired..."

"I'm not tired, and you, a woman, don't need to spend any effort on this kind of thing."

Lin Zhaoyan was speechless and glared at him for a while and could no longer speak.

Fortunately, Xiao Qi did not make any further moves, but laughed "puffed", let go of her, turned over and lay beside her. "What a fool."

Lin Zhaoyan glared at him again.

But he hugged her over and pulled the brocade quilt beside him, "Okay, don't make trouble with you. Have a night of tossing and going to bed!"

Lin Zhaoyan was lying in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance after bathing on his body. His cheeks were slightly hot, but he made fun of him: "Yes, when you go to court after your wedding date, the accumulated memorials will make you mess around all night."

"I really don't want to forgive anyone." Xiao Qi laughed, and he was in great interest and did not want to be outdone: "But when I give this throne to your good brother, I'm afraid you are the only one I can do. Madam, you must be prepared as soon as possible."

This was originally a very explicit sentence, but Lin Zhaoyan did not have the shame and annoyance that Xiao Qi had expected, but fell into silence abnormally.

"Do you really want to give the throne to Rui'er?"

Xiao Qi was surprised and was looking down at her, so he heard her ask, and his eyes happened to meet her and raised them to look at his eyes.

As his eyes met, he could feel her tension and anxiety, so he comforted her and hugged her tighter, "Why do you ask that?"

"I'm just wondering whether it's worth it if you give up like this? After all, this is what you earned after your life, and it shouldn't be easy for me..."

"You don't believe it." Xiao Qi pinched her nose, "This identity is just a cloud to me. What I tried my best to earn is my future. In the past, I just wanted to live, but now..." He said, looking at her deeply, with unprecedented seriousness in his eyes, "I want to live happily, and the only one who can make me happy is you - Lin Zhaoyan."

Lin Zhaoyan's heart moved and subconsciously reached out to rub his nose that was pinched, but the sourness and heat in his eyes were not known for.

Everyone knows this principle when the country is bent on, and fame is misleading. Unfortunately, greed for the sake of heroism and wealth for a lifetime has always been the fate of a man. I don’t know how many people are eager to make fame and fortune, and spend their whole life seeking only for the supreme rights.

But Xiao Qi said he would let go.

"If you feel sorry for me, you can compensate me with practical actions. It just so happens that I am not sleepy at all." But he suddenly came to her ear and whispered.

What kind of warmth and touching, it disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Lin Zhaoyan took a bite at his delicate chin, and then put himself in the brocade quilt before he settled the score with her, and refused to come out again.

The wind and snow are swaying outside, but the spring in this room is so strong that even the heart seems to be melting.

Lin Zhaoyan's speech was still the same as before. After Xiao Qi's marriage period, he was so busy that he could not see the beginning and end. Sometimes he could go to court to have sex with her as soon as possible, but before he could get to the point, he was called away again.

While Lin Zhaoyan felt distressed, he also became more determined to be an ordinary couple with him. People in the world only see them enjoying the glory above thousands of people. How can they know that they also have to sacrifice too much happiness for this?

There was not much to deal with in the palace, so Lin Zhaoyan often took Rui'er to teach him to reduce the burden on Xiao Qi.

After not seeing her for more than a year, Rui'er has really improved a lot. She speaks and acts in a proper manner and is polite and polite. Although she is hard to be happy when she sees her, she will no longer express her feelings like before, and she even pounces on her and hugs her.

In this way, he really looks like a prince of the Great Yan Kingdom, and he can sit firmly on the high dragon throne in the future.

It seems that Xiao Qi has put some effort into it!

Life passes quietly like this, although it is hard, but it is fulfilling.

A series of arrangements and plans made by Xiao Qi to give way are also being implemented step by step.

It was soon August. After Xiao Qi cleared the last obstacle in the court, Lin Ruoyan's wedding also arrived as scheduled.

During this period, my mother also came to the palace several times, and her words revealed that she wanted her to attend the wedding to support Lin Ruoyan.

Lin Zhaoyan understood her concerns. Although this marriage was granted by the imperial court and could not be rejected by the Duke Chengguo's Mansion, Lin Ruoyan's identity was there. When the Jian'an Marquis Mansion was glorious, Qin's family looked down on him, and it was even more indifferent to the present.

My mother was afraid that Qin would make things difficult for Lin Ruoyan at the wedding banquet. She thought that she could suppress the scene as the queen of a country, and also wanted to let Qin understand that Lin Ruoyan was supported by the queen.

As for the future, life will be lived by oneself, it depends on Lin Ruoyan himself.

Lin Zhaoyan wanted to go, and she has been the queen for a while. She will naturally be happy if she can help her sister in the end.

In the evening, she told Xiao Qi about this matter. She was afraid that he would disagree and thought about the persuasion. Unexpectedly, he directly crushed her onto the bed like a hungry wolf. After a lot of rain, she let go, like a satisfied cat, and said lazily: "If you still have the strength, go tomorrow!"

Lin Zhaoyan: “…”
