Quick Wear: This is my wife

Chapter 464 Prince VS Little Brother 64

When Fu Runze heard this, his face was filled with resentment. He stared at Fu Nanzhan with wide eyes and said, "Little uncle, I take back what I said before that you don't want the throne because you don't want to be in charge of government affairs. I think you threw the throne to me because you don't want to marry so many concubines."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was being schemed against by his uncle. It was not easy to sit on the throne.

Fu Nanzhan laughed and waved his hand: "No, I let you succeed to the throne because of your father. Besides, I am really lazy."

In fact, Fu Nanzhan originally passed the throne to Fu Runze because of his elder brother's kindness.

However, after observing for such a long time, Fu Runze does not seem like a tyrant who would lead the country to destruction.

But he always had a question in his mind: why did Dayong, which had many capable and brave generals, go on the road to destruction in the original world line?

He frowned slightly, then relaxed again. Never mind. Thinking about these things is tiring. Let's just take care of the things at hand first.

Fu Runze was speechless when he saw Fu Nanzhan lost in thought.

After a while, he calmed down and became serious. He told Fu Nanzhan everything about the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, including all the details of how they framed Xiao Yubai.

After hearing this, Fu Nanzhan's face instantly darkened, his eyes filled with anger, his hands clenched tightly into fists, veins popping out on the backs of his hands: "They are so bold!"

The anger in his heart surged like a raging tide. How could he swallow the fact that the person he held so dear was being plotted against by others?

Afterwards, the two discussed the political affairs of the court for a long time, from people's livelihood to military border defense, from the appointment and dismissal of officials to financial taxes. Every issue was related to the rise and fall and survival of Dayong.

The two expressed their opinions, sometimes arguing until their faces were red, and sometimes they smiled at each other because they reached a consensus.

Before they knew it, it was almost lunchtime, and they got up and went to Lord Han's palace together.

Normally, outsiders are not allowed to enter the harem, but the Regent is also with Lord Han, so that’s another matter.

"Your Majesty has arrived, the Regent has arrived!"

"Your Majesty, Regent, I pay my respects to you. May you be well and safe."*3

"Get up. You're still pregnant, so skip all these formalities." Fu Runze looked at Li Muchan, who was almost eight months pregnant, and helped her up.

When Fu Runze and Fu Nanzhan both stood up and walked towards Han Guijun's residence, Eunuch Wang Defa had already sent someone to the imperial kitchen to pass on the message, informing everyone that the emperor and the regent would have lunch at Han Guijun's place today.

Concubine Ying and Concubine Ting had never expected that Fu Runze would invite them to dinner here. Although they couldn't help feeling a little restrained, they secretly felt honored to be able to sit at the same table with the emperor and the regent.

At the lunch table, Fu Nanzhan's eyes and thoughts were almost entirely on Xiao Yubai.

He skillfully picked out the fish bones for Xiao Yubai, and carefully placed the exquisite dishes in front of Xiao Yubai. His focused look made everyone else present dazed.

Xiao Yubai looked calm and contented as he enjoyed Fu Nanzhan's attentive care. After all, such scenes were commonplace in the palace and he was used to it.

The eyes of the other people were full of envy. Fu Runze saw it and felt a little uncomfortable. He thought to himself that today was the first time he saw his little uncle being so "humble" in love.

After lunch, Fu Nanzhan and Fu Runze got up and left, going back to discuss national affairs.

The younger sisters and their companions immediately surrounded Xiao Yubai and started asking him questions.

Although Yingpin is cheerful and carefree in her daily life, as a woman, who doesn't hope that her husband can love and care for her more?

She was the first to ask, "Brother Yu, is the prince usually as attentive to you as he is today when he's at home?"

Xiao Yubai was surrounded by the crowd and was at a loss for what to do. He could only respond in a confused manner: "Ah? Ah!"

Tingpin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does the prince really pick out fish bones and serve you dishes every time? He's the regent of our Dayong who walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. How could he be like this..."

Xiao Yubai lowered her eyes slightly and said calmly, "Once, a fish bone got stuck in my mouth while I was eating fish. Since then, my husband has always helped me pick it out. Before he went out to fight, he even asked Mo Qin to learn how to pick fish bones, for fear that I would be hurt by fish bones again."

When everyone heard this, they all felt that Xiao Yubai was intentionally or unintentionally "showing off his affection" and were speechless for a moment.

The corners of Tingpin's mouth twitched slightly, and she smiled bitterly and jokingly said, "Haha, Brother Yu is really amazing. He has trained the prince so well. We can't compare to him!"

She thought that asking the emperor to pick out fish bones for her was simply a fantasy. Even the most favored Han Guijun would not dare to have such an idea.

At this moment, Yingpin seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "By the way, why didn't Wan'er come today? She is usually the most active."
