C33 On Marriage

"Then what does the emperor intend to do?" She believed that if he didn't take any action after what had happened, it wouldn't be in keeping with his character and identity.

Nangong Yu calmly said, "I've already sent people to invite the Imperial Advisor back to the Imperial Court, but for now, I don't want to alert him. We'll discuss this when he returns."

Shangguan Wan immediately felt uneasy. According to what Nangong Yu said, the Imperial Advisor would catch a demon. At that time, wouldn't he be injured as well?

However, there was no way to prevent the Imperial Advisor from coming back. The day he returned would be the day his identity was exposed, and he might even die here.

At this point, that damned Luo Chen could take advantage of the situation.

Nangong Yu sensed her worry and asked softly, "Why is your face so ugly?"

To him, she was like a mystery. There were still many answers that needed to be unearthed.

Shangguan Wan smirked, "Perhaps it's because I'm not in a good mood when I think of the cruel and merciless demon in the palace."

The fact that she was not in a good mood was that there were too many things to worry about. First of all, she had not found the salted wood. Second of all, there was an enemy who had killed her servants.

Such a situation was going on all sides.

Nangong Yu helped her into the room, and they sat on the bed.

"Empress, there's no need to worry. This world is filled with evil, and that demoness won't be long in waiting."

Shangguan Wan's heart twitched as she heard this.

If he knew that he was a demon, would he sacrifice his life to protect her, or would he destroy his family? In this world, there were probably only a few people who were able to accept Fey.

She looked up at his cheek, and there was a faint smile on it, and it was warm. He was too gentle with her and had given her too much love. She gradually began to enjoy everything. If she were to suddenly lose him one day, what would happen to her?

"Your majesty, what will you do if you find out one day that I lied to you?" she asked seriously, not ambiguously.

Hearing this, Nangong Yu carelessly lifted the hair by her ear up to his ear and laughed, "Not much."

"Ah?" "You don't care at all?" Shangguan Wan was a little disappointed, she actually hoped that he could give a more formal answer, such as dragging it down to feed the dogs or hitting it until its skin split open.

Nangong Yu forced out a smile. "It's not that I don't care, but if you're lying to me, then no matter what I've already been deceived. Why don't I just continue being deceived by you?"

Shangguan Wan understood, this was the first time she heard someone saying the word 'powerless' in such a righteous and sincere manner.

However, this kind of answer made her feel moved. A man who didn't care about anything and trusted her wholeheartedly, how could she not be moved?

However, she suddenly thought of something else. "Qi He should be talking about marriage a long time ago. Do you have a suitable candidate?"

Although she knew that Qi He and her beloved Luo Chen were different in status, Luo Chen had always been unwilling to admit that he had feelings for Qi He. As an imperial aunt, she should plan for Qi He and not let her hang herself on a tree.

Seeing Shangguan Wan's question, Nangong Yu calmly replied, "I guess the empress already has a plan in mind."

"The Emperor is wise." Just two people, and she was rather polite.

Only then did the atmosphere in the room become a lot more relaxed. After the gloominess from before, there was now a bit of joy.

"I heard that Qi He brought Zhao Ping here. It seems that the Empress has a good impression of him."

Qi He's marriage, as the emperor's uncle, he had to worry about it before. Later, he saw that this girl was really naughty, like a wild horse that could not be tamed, so he ignored her. Now that Shangguan Wan had brought it up again, the responsibility in his heart had to be reclaimed.

Shangguan Wan's bright eyes blinked, "She's not bad, although she's a proud and jealous person, but she also likes to behave well. Plus, she's the most favored legitimate son of the family, she won't suffer any grievances if she marries."

"The empress has only seen him once, and she thinks so much?" Nangong Yu couldn't help but tease him.

"More than that." Shangguan Wan was proud, "The most important thing is that Wei He doesn't hate him, she said she can consider being with Zhao Ping. Your Majesty, think about it. In the entire imperial court, which of the nobles hadn't been made fun of by her before? However, only Zhaoping was willing to treat Qi He as if it was nothing.

It was just that Shangguan Wan couldn't bear it. If she was sent to another country with no relatives or relatives, wouldn't that be the same as bringing her the rest of her life?

The tragedy of Shangguan Wan herself could not be repeated.

"Since the empress said that he's not bad, then we'll have time to test him and see if he's worth entrusting the trust." Nangong Yu wasn't a careless person. After all, Qi He was his niece, and he couldn't afford to be careless in this life.

"Yes." Shangguan Wan nodded.

"That Luo Chen …" Obviously, the emperor had also heard the rumors in the palace. The rumors spread like wildfire and everyone was aware of it.

Shangguan Wan didn't mind. "Don't worry, your Imperial Majesty. He can't afford it."

If he didn't handle it well, he couldn't blame anyone.
