It's time to repay King Xiao for what he has done in the past few years.

The husband didn't answer, and Liu Youyou didn't ask again.

The light from the window came in through the window screen and cast a golden outline on Tang Zhongxin's body. Therefore, Liu Youyou stopped reading at all. Instead, she rested her forehead with one hand and lowered her eyes to admire the man's sleeping face intently.

The eldest brother's attack was a bit harsh. My husband's originally handsome face was covered with bruises and he felt worse than when he applied the medicine in the morning. But it was good to vent his anger, lest he become a lunatic like Prince Xiao, who had been in trouble for too long.

Yes, Prince Xiao is a lunatic in Liu Youyou's eyes.

The condition of King Xiao's injury was finally revealed.

That fire destroyed half of Prince Xiao's face, and only half of his handsome, fairy-like face was left. This was really retribution!

When he heard the news, Tang Zhongxin almost clapped his hands and cheered on the spot, but after thinking about it, he thought it would be better to burn King Xiao to death.

Because although the fire destroyed the innate advantages he relied on, he still survived. For a person who had already distorted his thoughts and acted paranoid, such an encounter would probably only arouse his violence and ruthlessness even more.

This made Tang Zhongxin secretly vigilant and ordered his men to keep a close eye on Prince Xiao. There must be no more surprises.

A trapped beast is crazy and its destructive power must be astonishing.

However, for such a person who was considered extremely dangerous by Tang Zhongxin, there was currently no way to punish him according to law. This was just because the reputation of King Xiao's Festival was so good, and the emperor had to worry about the public opinion. Although Huangqi had found evidence, many of the evidence involved the officials' back houses, and there was really no way to tell it in front of others.

For this reason, Tang Zhongxin secretly strengthened his protection of his wife.After all, King Xiao once had an idea for his Xiaoyou. No one knows if he will find Xiaoyou again if he gets crazy.

Liu Youyou wasn't too worried. She usually lived in seclusion, and even after the separation, she didn't go out. He wanted to attack her, but it was hard to find the opportunity.

However, time passed day by day, and Prince Xiao remained motionless.

Neither Tang Zhongxin nor Liu Youyou thought that Prince Xiao would fall silent, so they did not put down their guard. At this moment, Liu Youyou received the news from the Prime Minister's Mansion——

Guan Shunhua is pregnant. The good news will be announced four months after the wedding. The first three months of pregnancy have already passed. For this reason, Guan Yicheng and his wife invited some close relatives and friends to have a drink together.

This fact made Tang Zhongxin very envious and jealous, and he also disliked the letter sent by the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Liu Youyou couldn't help but smile and shake her head, closed the invitation sprinkled with gold powder, and put it on the stone table, "Want to go and take a look together?"

He didn't want to go, but he still answered with this word——

"Go."

There was always a faint uneasiness in his heart. He knew that it came from his fear of Prince Xiao and his deep fear of losing his wife.

"It looks like the weather will not be good tomorrow." It has already entered the twelfth lunar month, and the weather is very cold. It is now evening, and snowflakes are even falling. Tang Zhongxin looked at the snow outside the pavilion and said with deep meaning.

Liu Youyou stood beside him, looking at the snowy sky, and said in a calm tone: "The carriage needs to go slower."

As they have been married for a long time and have developed internal relationships, the relationship between the couple has slowly changed from the initial appearance of being in harmony with each other, sharing the same bed but having different dreams, to the current harmony, without arousing the slightest suspicion from others. Everyone is just glad that Tang Zhongxin's prodigal son has turned back.

Of course, Guan Shunhua was not included in this. She had exchanged souls with Liu Youyou, and she had vaguely guessed that Liu Youyou was actually the oiran from Tanhuanlou that was rumored outside.

Although she didn't quite understand what was going on, she knew clearly that these things couldn't be explored in detail, so she pretended to be confused.

And for this reason, she didn't take it seriously regardless of the rumors outside that Tang Zhongxin and his wife were not in a good relationship. She didn't doubt Mr. Tang San's sincerity towards his sworn sister at all, just like she didn't doubt her love for her husband. On the contrary, she admired them for doing this to show it to outsiders, as if their relationship gradually got better after marriage without letting others notice.

Tang Zhongxin stretched out his hand to take his wife into his arms, and ruffled the cloak for her. His tone was a little indulgent, "As long as you are happy." She was not even willing to coax him with words, and even deliberately wanted to make him angry. He really spoiled her.

When Liu Youyou leaned into his arms, she whispered, "I knew I had to go." It was so childish.

Tang Zhongxin laughed at this, of course he knew he had to go, he just couldn't help but act coquettishly with her, but it was a pity that she didn't buy it.

"It's cold outside, let's go back inside."

"Yeah."

Tang Zhongxin hugged her back to the house, opened the bead curtain into the inner room, helped her untie her cloak and put it aside, then hugged her and sat on the soft couch by the window.

Liu Youyou likes the warmth coming from her husband. In this season, it is really comfortable and happy to be in such a wide and safe embrace.

Tang Zhongxin hugged her and lay half on the couch, covered the two of them with a blanket, then took the book on the small table and flipped through it.

It's not some poetry or the Four Books and Five Classics, but a novel that may be a little vulgar in the eyes of literati. Xiaoyou likes to read it and buys new ones from time to time. He sometimes flips through it.

Unexpectedly, he found something good when he casually flipped through it today. He read it with gusto. After reading it, he put the book in front of his wife and said, "Let's see how it goes."

Liu Youyou glanced twice, her face couldn't help but turn red, and she raised her hand to hit him twice.

[The impure description in this paragraph has been deleted, I am extremely sorry]

Tang Zhongxin laughed happily in a low voice, stretched out his hand to lift her into his arms, and then inserted his hand along the skirt of her clothes. At the same time, she closed her eyes and faced his lips.

Just when the two of them were kissing each other inseparably, caressing each other until their clothes were messy, and just when they were about to lose control, Xiao Ping's voice came from outside the room——

"Sir, there are guests coming to our door. The butler will ask you to come."

Tang Zhongxin calmed down and tried to make his voice sound normal, "I understand."

Liu Youyou was also a little disappointed, and she pursed her lips slightly to help him arrange his clothes.

Tang Zhongxin leaned into her ear and chuckled, "I'll come as soon as I go."

"Hmph." Liu Xin raised his head and punched him in the chest, giving him a sideways look, but it was very seductive.

Before leaving, Tang Zhongxin reached out and touched her face again, and then went out to meet the guests with satisfaction.

Liu Youyou reached out and touched the place he touched, shook her head with a smile, leaned on the couch, picked up the book and continued reading. Of course, she skipped the description that made people blush and heartbeat.

However, on the day of the banquet to celebrate Guan Shunhua's happiness, the atmosphere was not very pleasant, because King Xiao showed up uninvited with half of his burned face.

As the half-brother of the current prince and the current emperor, even if Guan Yicheng becomes the prime minister, he has to be treated with some kindness. No matter how unhappy he is in his heart, he can only greet him with a smile.

The appearance of King Xiao made Tang Zhongxin jump in his head and heightened his vigilance.

But something happened in the end, not in the male guest's outer courtyard, but in the inner courtyard.

Guan Shunhua had a miscarriage, and Prince Xiao's concubine was the culprit.

The concubine of Prince Xiao has always been a shadow-like existence. In the love story of Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao, the concubine of Prince Xiao seems to be just a supporting role.

So no one expected that such a neglected woman would do such a vicious thing.

After receiving the news, King Xiao entered the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion full of anger.

After seeing her prince, Prince Xiao's side concubine cried and rushed to tell her that she was not the one. Unfortunately, she was not protected by Prince Xiao, but was kicked to the ground by him.

When Prince Xiao's side concubine looked over with tears in her eyes and a look of disbelief on her face, Prince Xiao took the sword from the guard beside him and stabbed her.

In the blink of an eye as life passed by so fast, many things flashed through the mind of Prince Xiao's side concubine, including the prince's gentle words to her, the prince's love for her, the prince's superficial affection for the princess, but secretly he poured Juezi soup into her...

She had always believed that the prince actually loved her, but now she suddenly discovered that the prince had never loved her at all, and she was just a pawn he used.
