Chapter 705: Returning to the Gate 3
Chapter 705: Returning to the Gate 3
Lu Beichen couldn't help but chuckle.
Fu Ling rolled his eyes at him. Who on earth had done this to him? Now he was gloating over someone else's misfortune?
Being glared at, he quickly restrained himself and gave Fu Ling a flattering smile.
It's simply unbearable to watch. When did this guy become so cunning? I always feel that the once aloof Lu Beichen seems to have disappeared during this trip to Xuanyuan.
"I noticed that your personality has become more cheerful since you came to Xuanyuan." Not only that, you also talk more than before.
"Here, you don't have to worry about saying the wrong thing, but in China, it's different. If you say something wrong, it might bring endless trouble to yourself or your loved ones."
Is it possible that it is the other way around?
But if you think about it, there is nothing wrong with it. The royal family was considered the most powerful family in ancient times. Whether it was power or money, they were first-class, and they were not afraid of offending others with their words.
More importantly, there are no relatives to restrain you here. If you don't accept it, you can fight it. Information is blocked, there are no "extra editions" or "telegrams" to spread, and the transmission of information is slow. No small matter will be magnified infinitely and known to everyone.
From this point of view, perhaps his personality was not so cold originally, but it was his military duties and the environment he was in that shaped him.
After all, when he was with her, Lu Beichen talked a lot, and he could even say sweet words that most people would be too embarrassed to say.
"Actually, I like it here very much." Lu Beichen said suddenly.
"Why?"
"Here, I can hold your hand at any time without worrying about anyone questioning our relationship or being talked about behind our backs."
Well, as someone who has been through it, Fu Ling is not in a position to criticize anything.
Later generations have indeed become much more open, and couples hugging each other can often be seen on the streets, but the sincere and pure love of the innocent era is missing. It is true that the distance between men and women has been shortened, but it has also had a negative impact on the entire social atmosphere. It can be said that there are both advantages and disadvantages.
Lu Beichen didn't have breakfast at the Lu Mansion. He prepared a cart full of return gifts and used a separate carriage to transport it.
When going out today, Lu Beichen did not ride a horse, but took a carriage with Fu Ling.
Fu Ling teased, "Why don't you take Jinghong out for a walk today?"
"Today is the time to spend with my wife, it's not appropriate for it to come out."
Fu Ling curled his lips, feeling a little jealous: "Before, your charm did not discriminate between men and women, but now, it doesn't even discriminate between races. Seeing how Jinghong clings to you, she's become hostile to me."
"What are you laughing laughing?"
Instead of comforting others, he is gloating over their misfortune. What kind of person is he?
"I don't mean to laugh at you. I just think your jealous look is very cute. It's just a horse. Why bother getting angry at it? Besides, it's a stallion."
"Oh, so your charm now ignores gender?" Fu Ling gave him a thumbs up.
Lu Beichen was speechless for a moment. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Seeing his bewildered expression, Fu Ling secretly rejoiced: "Boy, you're still a little naive to fight me!"
"Madam, what do you mean?"
"Nothing, I was just teasing you." It's better not to corrupt the innocent boy.
Lu Beichen thought she was jealous of Jinghong: "Madam, Jinghong has a rather rebellious personality. Once he recognizes you, he won't be like this now."
"Okay, I'll give it a good fight tomorrow." She just couldn't believe it. She could even tame tigers and wolves, but she was actually despised by a horse. If Yinbao and the others knew about this, they would laugh at her to death.
The carriage stopped at the palace gate. When getting off the carriage, Fu Ling found a sedan chair not far away, with a dozen eunuchs and palace maids standing next to the sedan chair. At this time, a eunuch came running towards him. Fu Ling recognized the man as Eunuch Pu who was beside the queen.
"Your Highness, Prince Consort, you are finally here. The Queen has sent this old servant to wait here for a long time."
"Mr. Pu, I haven't seen you for a few days. How are you these days?"
Eunuch Pu smiled and replied, "Your Highness, thanks to you, I am doing well."
Then the two were invited to sit in the sedan chair, and the eunuchs and palace maids who came with them each held gifts of different sizes in their hands.
Xiang Qing was a little excited. She had been coming and going recently, and the feeling of entering the palace was completely different from before.
It feels like I have been away for a long time and suddenly returned to the place where I grew up, full of nostalgia.
The sedan chair moved forward slowly, not very fast, which made her feel a little sleepy.
Lu Beichen held Fu Ling's hand and behaved intimately, which made Pu Gonggong smile.
Everyone was not optimistic about the marriage at first, but it took a big turn. They thought that the couple was just ordinary people, but they actually had the wealth of a country, which was really eye-opening.
This also fully demonstrates that the princess has vision and a keen eye for talent. In the Xuanyuan King City, the love between the princess and her husband has become a legend and they have become a fairy couple that everyone envies.
"Your Highness Princess, Your Highness Prince Consort, I will first take you two to pay respects to His Majesty, and then go to Fengci Palace to meet the Empress." Eunuch Pu said to the two.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Pu."
"This is all within the old servant's responsibility."
When the two arrived, Xuanyuan Hong was reviewing memorials in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, the princess and her husband have returned to pay their respects to you." The eunuch chief said with a smile on his face.
Putting down the memorial in his hand, Xuanyuan Hong's originally frown finally relaxed.
"Oh? Let them in."
"Yes!"
Soon after, the two walked in hand in hand.
Xuanyuan Hong took the rare opportunity to observe Fu Ling's complexion, which looked better than when he was in the palace. He then calmly looked away.
"Your son pays homage to His Majesty, Father, and wishes you longevity and good health." The two said in unison.
"No gift!"
"Thank you, Father!"
"Chengzhi, you stay. Ling'er, go to Fengci Palace and pay your respects to your mother."
So you don't want to see her anymore, right? Fine, fine, if I can't stay here, I'll find another place to stay. So Fu Ling put his hands together and bowed, "Yes, I'll take my leave first."
"Go, go." Xuanyuan Hong shook his sleeves as if to drive away flies.
But his attitude towards Lu Beichen was completely different: "Chengzhi, how about playing a game of chess with father first?"
"Yes."
Fu Ling almost vomited blood.
It turns out that the son-in-law is the treasure in the eyes of the father-in-law, and his own daughter is a weed.
Fortunately, with her mother, she could at least feel the deep maternal love, unlike with Xuanyuan Hong, where she was trying to please someone else, and her double standards were too obvious.
Just as she expected, Bu Hanci was extremely enthusiastic.
He looked her up and down, his face full of joy: "Let the Queen Mother take a good look."
Seeing that Fu Ling looked okay, she finally felt relieved.
"Ling'er, is there anything you're having trouble adapting to after marriage?"
"Everything is fine. Lu Beichen treats me very well."
"You kid, you're already married, how can you call him by his first name?"
Fu Ling was surprised. This was a name that came to her mind easily. It was really difficult for her to call him husband in front of others. After struggling with it for a long time, she finally corrected it.
