C866 866 Proposal of marriage

Yan Jue originally only wanted to come to the Duke Palace to take a look at his nephew, but he didn't expect to see Xiao Niu dressed up as a girl.

When young son heard his father say that he was not allowed to play with Uncle Niu anymore, and that he was crying and making a ruckus in the palace, Yan Jue was worried that Yan Yuan would be annoyed by his son, so he directly brought him back to Prince Lu's Mansion.

After listening to Yan Jue's narration, Liu Tian Xin remained silent for a long time before asking, "It's really that similar?"

Yan Jue nodded, and thought back to the moment when Ol 'Nine pushed open the door, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Not to mention Ol' Nine, when I saw the figure of his back, I almost thought it was Ruo Qing." After talking for a while, without seeing any reaction from Liu Tian Xin, he turned her gaze over. Seeing her rubbing her cheeks as if she was deep in thought, he reached out to push her, and asked: "My wife, what are you thinking about?"

"Thinking about that Bull Guard."

Liu Tian Xin's words immediately caused Yan Jue's face to darken. She asked unhappily, "You're thinking of another man in front of your husband?"

Hearing that sour smell, Liu Tian Xin rolled his eyes, "We're not married yet, so don't be a husband."

Although the two of them lived under the same roof, although she was now recognized as the King Lu's Consort, the two of them were not married, nor did they live in the same courtyard. Even if she took a fancy to other men, he didn't care.

However, Yan Jue did not seem to mind, "When I called you my wife, didn't you object?"

"…"

She was too used to him calling her by her name and was too lazy to correct her.

She wanted to retort, but her hand was grabbed by Yan Jue. Seeing his serious expression, she spoke with an apologetic tone, "Sorry, my wife, it's been so long, I haven't given you a name. I'll enter the palace tomorrow and report to the empress dowager, let's choose a lucky day to get married, shall we?"

Liu Tian Xin was startled, she did not expect Yan Jue to say this.

As a woman, no matter how much a man loved her, it would be fine. However, everyone wanted to stand by his side in an honorable manner. Only with that title, would she be able to take it for granted and be jealous.

But she never brought it up in front of Yan Jue. She knew that her ugly face didn't have the qualifications to ask Yan Jue to give her a proper and proper name.

She had always told herself that as long as she could stay by his side, she would be able to leave easily if he ever got tired of her. She had never hoped for him to give her a title and her face was not worthy of a title like King Lu's Consort.

Yan Jue had mentioned a few times that he wanted to marry her, but with so many things happening between them, he was delayed.

She never asked, nor did she mention it. Those words she had said to stop Yan Jue just now were not meant to get him to propose a marriage with her.

She looked at Yan Jue with a complicated expression and said: "I was just casually saying it, why are you being so serious?"

"Then you don't want to marry me?"

The serious expression on Yan Jue's face did not fade, he grabbed her hand and tightened it a bit, "Sorry, wife, I've always said that I wanted to marry you, but I've dragged it until now."

Liu Tian Xin's heart ached, but on the surface, she maintained a calm and collected attitude, and said: "I understand, after so many things have happened, Ruo Qing again …"

She sighed, "Forget it, it's fine. Being able to stay by your side is enough."

"What is enough? I've wronged you for so long."

Yan Jue suddenly looked like a child as he hugged Liu Tian Xin tightly and said: "Ever since Old Nine felt that Ruo Qing was still alive, he had come back to life. Although she did not smile at all, it's still better than before.

Liu Tian Xin chuckled and looked at him, but did not reply.

Yan Jue truly loved her now, and she knew that if they weren't married, she would only be the first woman by Prince Lu's side. With such a face and with the status of King Lu's Concubine, if she stood by his side, he would represent the Prince Lu's Mansion, Prince Lu.

King Lu's Concubine was an ugly monster. Wasn't it because she had been looked down upon by others?

No matter how unpleasant the words Pang Yue Qiu had said back then were, she knew that was the truth.

Would Yan Jue be willing to face her for the rest of his life?

If he was secretly mocked by others, could he just laugh it off and not take it to heart?

It would be fine in a short period of time, but it would take too long.

Liu Tian Xin did not dare think about it further. Therefore, some things, to her, were destined to be extravagant hopes. She would never force anyone, or else, she would not be that deeply disappointed.

Yan Jue saw that she had lowered his eyes and did not speak, and knew what she was thinking in her heart.

He didn't feel ugly looking at the huge scars on her face. He just felt a pang in his heart, and when he thought about what she had experienced in that fire, and how she had almost left him for good, he felt a pain in his body now that he thought about it.

How could she look down on him now? As long as she was alive, it was already a gift to him.

"Let's get married, shall we?"

He knelt down on one knee in front of her, took out the jade pendant from his bosom, and gave it to Liu Tian Xin, "My wife, marry me."

Seeing Yan Jue kneeling in front of him, Liu Tian Xin was shocked, "What are you doing, get up."

Yan Jue did not listen, he only grabbed her hand and said: "Previously, Ruo Qing told me that if she wanted her beloved girl to marry him, she would have to kneel down and propose, and even propose to her using her precious treasures."

He pointed to the jade pendant in Liu Tian Xin's hand and said: "This is something my mother left for me and it's for my wife. If you agree to marry me, then put it on, okay?"

Yan Jue's eyes carried sincerity and urgency, and also a trace of nervousness, as if he was afraid that Liu Tian Xin would refuse.

She looked at the crystal clear jade pendant in her palm. Her eyes were a little hot, but she could not say anything if she agreed.

"I think it's good that we are like this."

Disappointment flashed past Yan Jue's eyes.

"I don't think so."

He was still kneeling in front of her, not getting up. "If you don't marry me, how are we going to give birth to children? Are you going to let me die so cruelly?"

He knelt straight and straightened. A man having gold under his knee was nothing in front of him. Kneeling and begging his wife was the proper thing to do.

Liu Tian Xin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry because of him, but her serious expression prevented her from laughing.

"If you want, I can …"

Just as her words were about to reach her mouth, they were covered by Yan Jue's hands, "Don't say anymore."

He looked at Liu Tian Xin's face seriously and said, "If I don't give you a name, I won't touch you."
