Chapter 188: CH 188

- May 09, 2022

In a blink it was night time, Ru Ge intended to bring Ji Ling Xue back but Xiao Yi Chen had no intentions of leaving, a certain emperor had carelessly choked on fishbone, after getting Bai Mo to remove it for him, it took a long time, the sky had already turned dark, it was already time for dinner, before dinner, Xiao Yi Chen only then said calmly: "There's a hot springs in the courtyard, it's water from Mount Taibai, we ordered people to add some freshly grown Chinese milk vetch into it, the hot springs can improve blood circulation, Chinese milk vetch can help cultivate the body, its very beneficial to the body to take a soak, and can increase longevity."

Xiao Yi Chen praised the benefits of the hot springs to the level of miracle, hearing this it made people tempted, Ji Ling Xue wasn't an exception, since it was a rare hot springs, since she was here, of course she should take a dip, take advantage of this.

Ru Ge saw Ji Ling Xue was interested in the hot springs so he went along with her thoughts, they both remained.

The imperial courtyard's guest room was very refined, Ji Ling Xue walked around the room, idly picking up the clothes already prepared for her by the palace maids she left, after finding out where the hot springs was, Ji Ling Xue went directly there.

After eating dinner, it wasn't good to soak in a hot springs, dense steam spiralled up, passing by a rockery, Ji Ling Xue found a place at the hot springs where there were the most Chinese milk vetch, taking off her clothes she entered the hot springs, the water temperature was just perfect, Ji Ling Xue happily submerged herself in the water like a fish.

Spitting out a mouthful of water, Ji Ling Xue picked up a flower and placed it by her nose to smell, a faint fragrance made people comfortable and want to sleep.

At the reception pavilion, Ru Ge slowly entered, Xiao Yi Chen picked up a wine pot pouring it out, when he raised his head and didn't see Zhi Xue, he raised his eyebrow out of curiosity.

Ru Ge said: "Your majesty, Zhi Xue isn't here?"

Xiao Yi Chen shook his head, "Maybe she's admiring the elegance of the courtyard and went for a walk by herself?"

Ru Ge sat opposite Xiao Yi Chen, also pouring himself a cup of wine, he picked it up and took a sip when he heard Xiao Yi Chen lazily say: "Ru Ge, we have fallen in love with your sister Zhi Xue at first sight..."

"Pu!" Ru Ge spat the mouthful of wine onto the floor, "cough, cought..." Ru Ge looked at Xiao Yi Chen with suspicion.

Your majesty are you being honest, Ji Ling Xue with such a face can make you fall in love? You have very special taste!

Xiao Yi Chen's face held a slight smile asking, "Ru Ge, are you alright?"

Ru Ge waved his hand, "Cough, cough...I only choked on the wine, an accident, I forgot my manners!" As he spoke he took a handkerchief out in embarrassment to wipe his mouth, his heart was screaming out that it was puzzled and uncomfortable.

Xiao Yi Chen waved his hand: "No harm."

Ru Ge: "Your majesty, my sister is lively, she doesn't like the stifling life of the palace, I didn't bring her to Dongqi for a peace marriage."

Xiao Yi Chen indicated he understood and nodded, "You love your sister dearly, we can understand, we will treat her well."

Ru Ge's lips twitched, he couldn't find someway to retaliate, Xiao Yi Chen was the emperor of a country, it was a great fortune for him to propose marriage, people cannot refuse the intentions of a ruler.

Ru Ge said: "I previously promised my sister, she will be in charge of her marriage, forgive me I don't dare to make a decision for her."

He knew that Xiao Yi Chen had no good intentions inviting him and Ji Ling Xue to the imperial courtyard today, so this was his intention, could Xiao Yi Chen have discovered Ji Ling Xue? It can't be...

Xiao Yi Chen nodded: "Since ancient times marriage has been decided by the parents, if there are no parents an elder brother can take their place, I didn't think Ru Ge doted on Ji Ling Xue in such a way, we understand, we will personally ask her opinion." 

Revealing such words at this point, it made Ru Ge's heart sink, he ate without tasting the food, saying he was full after eating a little.

Ru Ge hurriedly left, he looked like his butt had been set on fire.

Bai Mo came from around a corner waving a fan, he sat opposite Xiao Yi Chen, "Your majesty, are you serious?"

Xiao Yi Chen placed some food in his mouth, looking up at Bai Mo, "What?"

Bai Mo retracted the fan and knocked on the table: "Did you really fall in love with princess Zhi Xue at first sight...hehe...your majesty, you have three thousand beauties in your harem, which one isn't more beautiful than princess Zhi Xue..."

Xiao Yi Chen's gaze on Bai Mo turned cold, Bai Mo shut his mouth tactfully, raising his hand to scratch his head, "Aren't I concerned about you, you've just ascended the throne, you haven't even warmed up the throne, a marriage of peace is good, but you also have to choose by appearance..." Seeing that ugly face everyday, your majesty are you sure you want to live your life like that from now?

Xiao Yi Chen put down his chopsticks: "We only said it without thinking." If Zhi Xue was Ji Ling Xue, he will definitely marry her, if she wasn't, he wouldn't marry another other woman.

Xiao Yi Chen stood up, he slowly walked over to the hot springs under Bai Mo's worried gaze.

Ji Ling Xue was leaning on the side of the hot springs comfortably with her eyes closed, she vaguely heard the sound of footsteps approaching, Ji Ling Xue said without opening her eyes: "You've come!"

Xiao Yi Chen halted in his footstep, he looked at the delicate and thin figure under the dense steam, Ji Ling Xue's long black hair was behind her like kelp, covering her fair back completely.

Xiao Yi Chen's lips raised into a smile, from the voice he could tell, this was the younger sister Zhi Xue that Ru Ge was currently looking for, they didn't think she would come for a soak first, did she know she could get dizzy soaking on an empty stomach?

Xiao Yi Chen was about to open his mouth when he heard Ji Ling Xue continue: "Put the things to the side, I'm not thirsty right now, I'll drink it later."

Xiao Yi Chen raised an eyebrow, so she had thought he was a maid, no wonder she said what she did before, he had been surprised.

Ji Ling Xue cupped some water, looking at several of the Chinese milk vetch flowers: "This flower is so pretty, it looks kind of like a double petal lotus flower, half the leaf is a light purple the other half a powdery white. A single Chinese milk vetch flower isn't very eye-catching, a butch of them is like a giant brocade, there are over tens of thousands of flowers in the hot springs, I feel like I'm in the clouds..."

Xiao Yi Chen shook his head, noiselessly laughing as he heard Ji Ling Xue change topics: "Such a waste...some places need such herbs to save life, but here, these Chinese milk vetch are only used once for the emperor to bathe..."

Xiao Yi Chen sunk into silence, he listened as Ji Ling Xue continued: "Oh, what am I thinking, don't tell anyone what I said, please can you bring the water over!" As she spoke she reached out her hand, her jade like fingers were like a delusion in the mist, several beads of water slide down the back of her hand, dripping onto the ground.

Xiao Yi Chen couldn't help swallow some saliva, he turned his back to Ji Ling Xue, avoiding contact, he was a man of principle.

After not hearing any movements for a long time, Ji Ling Xue turned to look behind her, she only saw a slender figure in white standing in the mist, it wasn't a maid, Ji Ling Xu's forehead was immediately covered in black lines, fortunately she was still wearing a petticoat which didn't get wet easily, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.

Ji Ling Xue turned and submerged herself in the water...

Xiao Yi Chen only heard the sound of water behind him, when he turned around again, there was no longer a shadow of Ji Ling Xue in the hot springs, afraid something had happened to her he hurried to the edge of the hot springs, the Chinese milk vetch floated in the water, the only thing he couldn't see was Ji Ling Xue's figure.

Xiao Yi Chen shouted a few times but heard no response, thinking that it wasn't good for him as a man to stand around here, he turned and went out to keep watch, and called for a maid to go in to take a look, in case he was accused of murdering the princess of Dayan.

Ru Ge waited in the guest room with a face of anxiety for Ji Ling Xue, he heard the creak of a window opening, he turned to look, Ji Ling Xue climbed in through the window with wet hair.

Ru Ge held Ji Ling Xue's arm, after she fell into the room, he hurriedly closed the window, taking a dry handkerchief he helped Ji Ling Xue dry her hair, "Where did you go, not eating dinner?"

Ji Ling Xue said: "I went to soak in the hot springs, let's not talk about it, after soaking in that Chinese milk vetch hot springs I really feel energetic, brother, you should take a soak later, it'll help you recover."

Ji Ling Xue looked like "she was doing all this for you", Ru Ge was very happy, he didn't continue with the reproaching her, he changed topics: "I already ordered someone to prepare some refreshments for you, eat more."

"Thank you brother!" It was great to have a brother.

Ru Ge thought of what a certain emperor said, the smile on his face immediately vanished.

JI Ling Xue asked: "Brother, what's wrong?" In order to make Ru Ge so melancholy, what could it be?

Ru Ge worriedly said: "Just now at the reception pavilion, Xiao Yi Chen proposed marriage!"

Clatter, the comb in Ji Ling Xue's hand fell onto the floor, it was a crisp sound, she looked down to see the wooden comb couldn't withstand the impact and split into two.

"Xiao Yi Chen proposed marriage to you, he actually has an indulgency for men, I really couldn't tell before!"

Her forehead was violently hit, Ji Ling Xue hissed as she covered her forehead,.

Ru Ge again happily smiled: "What is inside that head of yours, what men, so disgraceful!"

Ji Ling Xue curled her lips, looking innocent, "Didn't you say it."

Ru Ge said: "The person he wants to marry is you!"

"Bang!" Ji Ling Xue hadn't sat on her chair properly, she fell onto the floor, looking dumbfound, then she turned angry, this man was really a stud horse, her "body hadn't even turned cold yet", fine if Xiao Yi Chen didn't observe the mourning period for her but now he even wanted to marry an extremely ugly princess of Dayan.

Ji Ling Xue rubbed her butt as she paced the room irritated, she was infuriated almost to death.

Ru Ge patted her shoulder, "Xue Er, don't worry, I didn't agree."

Ji Ling Xue looked at Ru Ge thankfully, Ru Ge was still the best, he understood her.

Ru Ge said: "I won't make you do what you don't want to do and marry someone you don't want to marry, what's more I won't push you into a pit of fire."

Ji Ling Xue was moved to almost tears, pulling on Ru Ge's hand she said: "You're the best!"

Outside the door, Xiao Yi Chen frowned, after hearing everything spoken in the room, his lips twitched, giving a bitter smile.

Marrying him was pushing her into a fire pit, Ru Ge was the only one who dared to describe him in this way.

Ji Ling Xue who had dried her hair, picked up a piece of pastry and ate it, Ru Ge sat opposite her gently watching, suddenly he asked: "Xue Er, what kind of man do you like?"

Ji Ling Xue propped up her cheek, thinking about it she said: "I like a good-looking man, one who treats me well, the most important thing is he can't have more than one wife."

Ru Ge counted them off on his fingers, nodding, these were the basics, tomorrow he'll set up a martial arts competition to invite grooms to marry Ji Ling Xue, he personally needed to choose a good husband for Ji Ling Xue.
