Chapter 914 Confidence! It Has Always Been My Kingdom!
“It will make trouble in the Palace?” Shao Wanru asked with her watery eyes full of confusion, “Then, why it will be suppressed outside the Palace?”
In fact, both its suppression outside and the trouble it would cause in the Palace were the Emperor’s orders! He would never allow the issue that would implicate the reputation of the royal family to be kept alive.
“Uncle the Emperor cares about his reputation very much!” Chu Liuchen slightly narrowed his beautiful eyes. His words sounded very confusing.
Shao Wanru frowned and thought for a while, but she couldn’t understand what he meant in the end. She couldn’t help catching his sleeve and asked, “What do you mean, Your highness?”
“We are married, so you don’t have to call me Your highness in private!” Chu Liuchen squinted at her with discontent.
“Master?” Shao Wanru asked tentatively.
“Call me by my name!” Chu Liuchen looked down at Shao Wanru with his charming eyes, with his mind full of Shao Wanru’s figure. When looking at Shao Wanru like this, he felt she was his whole world.
Shao Wanru blushed again. She was hesitant and shy, but she called “Chu Liuchen” in the end.
Her low and soft voice made him feel that something soft was tickling and scratching in the heart. Chu Liuchen was pleased. The happiness flowed from the bottom of his heart to his face. He smiled, lifting Shao Wanru’s little face with his fingers. The sight of her pink, petal-like lips made him breathe faster.
“You don’t have to say my family name!” Chu Liuchen gently induced her.
His eyes were shining with his love for her under the light, making him look more handsome. No one except Chu Liuchen could deserve the title of the handsome and romantic young man described in the book!
Shao Wanru seemed to be bewitched. She opened her mouth with cherry lips and said, “Liuchen!”
Chu Liuchen leaned to one side, pressed her under his body, and kissed her red lips that he had been coveting for a long time. The kiss was long and mild.
Shao Wanru was so shocked that she came to herself with a stiff body. In her two lives, she had never been so close to anyone like this. Although they had been husband and wife now, Chu Liuchen had repeatedly said he would keep a distance from her. Unexpectedly, he would be so passionate.
Yes, he was as passionate as fire.
Chu Liuchen was on fire, which made Shao Wanru also become hot. The heat intoxicated her, but she came to herself again in a panic and subconsciously pushed him away.
Chu Liuchen lay down beside her.
Shao Wanru tried hard to calm her breath and suppress her passion. Chu Liuchen, who was lying beside her, didn’t speak a word. She couldn’t help turning to look at him with a blush. Then a pair of handsome eyes came into her sight. Chu Liuchen was silently looking sideways at her shy look.
“What are you looking at?” Shao Wanru retorted.
Her face became more blushed after she said so.
“I am enjoying my Zhuozhuo!” Chu Liuchen leaned sideways and held Shao Wanru in his arms. His body temperature had decreased a lot now.
Shao Wanru buried her head in his arms and curled her lips. “What’s good about me?”
“Undoubtedly, my princess is the most beautiful woman. Of course, no one else but I can appreciate you!” Shao Wanru looked even more charming with a blushed face. Chu Liuchen thought that he needed to hide his Zhuozhuo better.
Anyone else was not allowed to covet the most precious thing in his heart!
“You are talking nonsense again!” Shao Wanru reached out and gently pinched Chu Liuchen in the waist.
Chu Liuchen pretended that he was in great pain and cried out exaggeratedly, “Please show mercy, my lady. If Imperial Grandmother sees the bruise, maybe she will punish you!”
Chu Liuchen’s teasing words reminded Shao Wanru, who poked her head out of Chu Liuchen’s arms slightly and asked, “Will the imperial physician come to treat you tomorrow, Your Highness?”
Chu Liuchen had almost recovered, about which, of course, only a few people knew. Although Empress Dowager and the Emperor knew that Chu Liuchen was much better, they were still worried about him, so they specially asked the imperial physician to feel his pulse every week.
But they told the public that they needed to treat Chu Liuchen with acupuncture.
Since he had to do acupuncture, he needed to take off his clothes even if it was just for show.
Chu Liuchen had mentioned it to Shao Wanru on the day she entered the mansion. Shao Wanru had always remembered it. But she couldn’t help asking when it came into her mind at this time.
“It’s not a big deal. They just come to feel the pulse!” Chu Liuchen said casually.
“Since you have recovered, there is no need to let them feel your pulse anymore. Anyway, there are doctors in our mansion! Why do we need to ask people from the Palace?” Shao Wanru was worried after all.
The imperial physician, who felt the pulse for Chu Liuchen, was also his private physician. He was very loyal to Empress Dowager, and only he knew Chu Liuchen’s health condition. But Shao Wanru felt that it was better to keep an eye on him. If someone targeted the imperial physician, Chu Liuchen might be implicated.
“Zhuozhuo, are you worried about me?” Chu Liuchen asked with a smile. He was in a very good mood. Thinking that the girl in front of him was worried about him, he felt soft in the heart.
He was a cold-hearted man, both towards others and himself, never expecting that he would fall in love with a woman as an ordinary man did. Apart from the woman in front of him, he didn’t care about anyone else. Any other beautiful women in his eyes were just ordinary people.
“I’m talking about something serious with you!” Shao Wanru blushed and pushed him.
“I’m talking seriously! Don’t worry. Even if someone wants to set me up, he won’t succeed because of you. I heard that you have quite good medical skills and once saved Marquis Xing’s Mansion’s Old Madam’s life. If such an ignorant person falls ill in front of you again, Zhuozhuo, you don’t have to save her. If such a person like her dies, so be it. Don’t care about her too much. You just need to care about me!” Chu Liuchen said seriously, but his eyes were full of happiness.
Shao Wanru reached out to cover his eyes. She sighed, “Fortunately, he is a cold-blooded man! Otherwise, how many women in the world will be bewitched by his appearance and target him? Even if they can merely look at him silently on the side, they are willing to do so!”
Chu Liuchen pulled her hand away from his face and kissed it gently with the corner of his mouth.
The soft touch made Shao Wanru subconsciously draw back her hand, blushing with red cheeks. He made fun of her all the time!
Prince Chen was totally different from what he had been when she first met him that day.
When it came to the first time they met, she frowned slightly. She remembered the headwear in her last life. It seemed that she and Chu Liuchen knew each other because of it! Though she thought so, there was no factual evidence to prove it. Everything was just her supposition.
She first met Chu Liuchen at that time. Was it the same time when they first met in her last life?
Suddenly, she felt sorrowful and reached out to hug Chu Liuchen’s strong waist. She knew that she was living her second life, but she lost the memories between Chu Liuchen and her in the previous life!
But she was sure that they knew each other in her last life. And they were more than acquaintances to each other.
Chu Liuchen was full of joy with Shao Wanru’s initiative to get close to him, but he was still dissatisfied with her frowned eyebrows. He rubbed her eyebrows gently to remove the sadness there.
“No unhappy thinking!”
“Okay!” Shao Wanru said softly and raised her watery eyes. The faint smile on her tender face highlighted her pink cheeks and red lips, which made her look gorgeous.
Shao Wanru bit her lip and looked away to avoid Chu Liuchen’s burning eyes. Then she blinked her eyes and asked, “You haven’t told me yet! Why will the matter cause trouble in the Palace and why won’t it do the same outside the Palace?”
Chu Liuchen realized that she was shy, so he gave up teasing her. He just held her hand with a smile and said, “Uncle the Emperor cares about his reputation most. The trouble is involved in Chu Liuyue, so he won’t let people outside the Palace laugh at the royal family. However, he must be furious with the consequences. He has no intention to abdicate now!”
“Why not?” Shao Wanru was surprised. One of his descendants would succeed to the throne anyway. She was still confused why the Emperor titled Chu Liuchen as the Crown Prince. Even if Prince Zhou and Prince Xin were disqualified at that time, Chu Liuyue was still eligible.
Or we could say that Chu Liuyue was the Emperor’s only choice. He could only pass down the throne to Chu Liuyue.
After all, no one would pass down his title to his nephew when he had sons. But, out of expectation, it was Chu Liuchen instead of Chu Liuyue who was titled the Crown Prince.
“Could there be any secrets behind it?”
“Maybe he can’t make the decision now. Anyway, I am not anxious about it. Let’s just wait and see. Chu Liuyue and Chu Liuzhou are rivals, and they have advantages. It’s hard to decide!” Chu Liuchen said lazily and stroked Shao Wanru’s hair with his hand.
Shao Wanru felt like he was stroking her hair as she was touching a cat by stroking its thick and soft fur. It felt comfortable. “Is he treating me as a cat?”
Shao Wanru glared at Chu Liuchen and caught his big hand in case he touched her again. However, she didn’t expect that it was just what he wanted. Chu Liuchen enjoyed the holding of a jade-like hand of the beauty in his arms.
“How can you not be anxious? The next Emperor should be decided as soon as possible!” Shao Wanru said. After thinking for a few seconds, she bit her cherry lips and made a decision. She was eager to get the answer to the question hidden in her heart for a long time. The current atmosphere or something else made her feel that it was just the right moment, so she looked at Chu Liuchen and asked, “Liuchen, what do you think of that?”
Her question was very abrupt, but Chu Liuchen understood it. He held Shao Wanru’s small hand and gently pinched her palm. Then he said naturally, “It has always been my kingdom! How can I give it up? Anyone who disobeys the god will be punished!”
