Chapter 287 The feeling of falling in love
The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds onto the glazed tiles of the palace, casting a golden glow. In the court, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Emperor Wen sat on the dragon throne, his face serious, and his eyes swept over the ministers.
"My dear ministers, I have something to announce." Emperor Wen's voice was low and full of majesty.
All the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Emperor Wen nodded slightly and continued, "The Crown Prince is the heir to the throne of Dazhao. I have decided to send the Crown Prince to the White Horse Temple to pray for the people of Dazhao for a month."
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of whispers in the court. Everyone knew that this meant that the prince would temporarily leave the capital and would not be able to participate in the affairs of the court.
Then, Emperor Wen dismissed several important officials of the Prime Minister's Party under various pretexts. These officials were all the confidants of Prime Minister Li Mingfu, and their dismissal undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to the Prime Minister's Party.
Prime Minister Li Mingfu had a gloomy face. His power was now weakened, all because of the Crown Prince's action against Princess Wu'an. He dared not speak out against Emperor Wen's decision.
But he knew in his heart that this was not only a warning from Emperor Wen to the Crown Prince for bullying Prince Wu'an and his wife, but also a crackdown on the Prime Minister's party.
The third and fourth princes were secretly delighted when they saw the crown prince's loss of power. They thought that this was their chance and began to think about how to win over more court officials and expand their sphere of influence.
The King of Qin stood there with an indifferent expression, his eyes revealing disdain.
He thought to himself, as Luo Lingyue expected, Emperor Wen started to take action. He couldn't help but think of the conversation with Luo Lingyue last night, and he admired her insight more and more.
For a month, Luo Lingyue was busy checking the accounts of various properties under her name.
She came to Zuiyue Tower. She was very pleased to see the crowds of people in Zuiyue Tower. Although she hadn't been here for a while, everything was still so familiar.
Then, she went to other shops and farms and found that each one was well managed by the Bai sisters. Looking at all this, she admired the abilities of the Bai sisters.
For a period of time afterwards, she went to the general's mansion to help her sister-in-law take care of her two little nephews, and she was exhausted!
As the sun set, Luo Lingyue finally returned to Wu'an Palace. She walked into the garden tiredly and found a quiet place to sit down and rest. However, her thoughts could not calm down.
She thought of all the things that had happened recently, and she couldn't help but feel melancholy. The prince was confined to the White Horse Temple for a month and would return to the palace tomorrow. But she didn't have a better way to deal with him!
She walked over to the swing in the garden and swung gently, trying to relax herself.
Just as Luo Lingyue was lost in her thoughts, the swing suddenly swung violently. She turned her head in confusion, only to see Xiao Jinghan standing behind her, gently pushing the swing.
As the swing swung, Xiao Jinghan's clear and deep voice also rang out: "What are you thinking about? Why are you sighing after returning to the capital? Is your business not doing well? Or are you short of money? These are all trivial matters, and your husband can solve them for you!"
Luo Lingyue tilted her head slightly and cast her eyes towards Xiao Jinghan. From her perspective, the sunlight fell on Xiao Jinghan's handsome face, outlining a clear outline.
His jawline was clear and as delicate as a sculpture, exuding a unique charm. And his peach blossom eyes were as bright as stars, as if immersed in a pool of clear mountain spring water, sparkling.
Luo Lingyue couldn't help but be attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of her, and an inexplicable feeling of being touched and warm surged in her heart. She couldn't help but murmured: "Xiao Jinghan! You are so beautiful!" This sentence seemed to flow out of her heart naturally, without any affectation or concealment.
Xiao Jinghan looked at her rosy face, with a little blush at the corners of her eyes, full of infinite charm. Her lips were like ripe cherries, slightly opened, as if inviting him to taste them. He couldn't help but lower his head and gently kissed her lips.
Luo Lingyue felt his kiss, and an inexplicable joy surged in her heart. She gently closed her eyes and enjoyed the sweetness of this moment. This man was indeed the one she loved. His gentleness and care made her feel extremely happy.
Recalling the past, Cheng Li had never been so intimate with her. In Cheng Li's eyes, she might not be a real woman, but just a protective umbrella that he could use.
However, Xiao Jinghan gave her an unprecedented feeling of love. He would pamper her and care for her infinitely, and would always consider her feelings first no matter when and where. This feeling of being cherished made her intoxicated and unable to extricate herself.
Xiao Jinghan's lips curled up into a satisfied smile. During this period of time, he had been busy dealing with Xiao Jingyi, dealing with Emperor Wen, and handling various trivial matters, and had almost no time to spend intimate time with Luo Lingyue. At this moment, he just wanted to turn his thoughts and desires during this period into actions and enjoy the moment of embracing his lover.
As the kiss deepened, Xiao Jinghan felt Luo Lingyue's response, her body gradually softened, and her hands hugged him tightly. He was intoxicated by this feeling, hoping that time could stay at this moment forever. However, at this moment, an abrupt voice broke their sweet atmosphere.
"Oh! It seems we came at the wrong time!" Nanzhi's exclamation brought both of them back to their senses at the same time. Luo Lingyue's face instantly flushed with a blush. She shyly pushed Xiao Jinghan, signaling him to stop.
Xiao Jinghan glanced at Nanzhi and the others at the door with some dissatisfaction, as if he was displeased by their interruption. But he still let go of his hand and let Luo Lingyue leave his arms.
Luo Lingyue tidied her clothes and tried to regain her composure, but the blush on her cheeks could not hide her inner nervousness and shyness. She looked down at the ground, not daring to look up to face Xiao Jinghan's fiery gaze.
Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue's shy appearance, and a trace of guilt surged in his heart. He knew that his actions just now might make her feel embarrassed and uncomfortable, so he said softly: "Sorry, I was too impulsive."
Luo Lingyue raised her head and smiled slightly, showing her understanding. She understood Xiao Jinghan's feelings. After all, they hadn't been so close for a long time. However, she still needed some time to get used to such intimacy.
Nanzhi and others stood outside the door, looking at the scene in the garden with embarrassment. They originally thought they could bring a surprise to Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue, but they didn't expect to become the culprit who destroyed the romantic atmosphere.
Xiao Jinghan shook his head helplessly, thinking that this was really an accident. He hoped that next time he would have a better opportunity to spend a good time with Luo Lingyue.
Xiao Jinghan coughed awkwardly, and the blush spread from behind his ears to his entire face, leaving a blush on his fair face, like a ripe apple.
