3 “To Duong Duong, do you really want to leave this king that much?” Qi Uyen's gentle eyes disappeared, and a regal aura that made others suffocate immediately came. “I don't have it!”, I was so panicked that I almost burst into tears, my voice also carrying a choking sound. This time it was my father's turn to be unhappy: "Hmph, there's still me here, no one wants to bully my daughter, even if you are the Regent King, you can't! You standing there look exactly like the King of Hell, not to mention my child, even this old man wants to run away." As soon as he finished speaking, my father stood up, spread his arms in front of me like protecting a chicken, glared and blew his beard at Qi Uyen. It would have been better if his hands were hidden behind his back and not shaking so much. Looking at the gray hair mixed in my father's black hair more and more, my eyes suddenly sting. No matter how disobedient I was, my father always stood by my side without hesitation, protecting me from everything, Even if it meant making me and the general's palace lose face, Even if I had to put my life on the line. I pulled out the guard's sword behind me. Before anyone could react, the sword pierced the guy's chest. Afraid that he had a special body and would not die cleanly, I stabbed another sword into the right side of his chest and abdomen, even turning the sword to make sure. If what he said today was spread out, even if Qi Uyen did not pursue him, the general's palace would still be unable to avoid disaster. He deliberately wanted me, my father, and even the general's palace to die. I put down my sword, looked at the body on the ground, panting. This is the first time my hands are stained with human blood. In addition to the feeling of gloating over revenge, there is still fear tingling throughout my body. At this moment, my eyes were covered by a big warm hand, my trembling hand was also gently covered by his hands. “Good boy, great job.” Qi Uyen gently kissed my ear, gently praising me, gradually calming my racing heart. None of us mentioned the separation anymore, and no one cared whether Dung Hao in the back yard was alive or dead. 4 From that day on, it was like there was an invisible curtain between me and Te Uyen. Although he still treated me the same as before, he never mistreated me, and even became more passionate at night. But the guards in the royal palace have clearly increased, especially around me. I felt like I couldn't breathe, so I suggested going out for a walk. Qi Uyen calmly agreed, but I suddenly felt uncomfortable. It's just that I didn't see it. As soon as I turned around, Te Uyen's eyes flashed with sick possession, and the brush in his hand was already crushed. Already unhappy, it was very difficult to satisfy a beautiful piece of fabric. As soon as I reached out my hand, another hand reached out. "To Duong Duong, why do you have to be involved in whatever Tan Yen likes?" Miss General's Palace - Tham Thuan put her hands on her hips and loudly questioned me. There were more and more people around, I tightened my grip on the corner of the cloth: "What a coincidence, are you guys also going to buy new clothes?" Tham Thuan snorted disdainfully: "Someone got married but still doesn't know how to keep to himself. When he smells it, he comes right away." I was stunned and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean you guys are...shit?" “You!” "Shameless! I'm tired of living." The male lead Dung Hao scolded me in a cold voice, raising his hand to strike me. I was so scared that I could only stare at that hand approaching. Suddenly, a familiar scent of sandalwood entered my nose, and I was hugged by a familiar pair of arms: "Don't be afraid." Qi Uyen gently blocked that palm, but Dung Hao himself was shocked and took a few steps back, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood. The blood red color made my eyes sting, I grabbed Te Uyen's shirt tightly and burst into tears. The female lead Tan Yen angrily glared at us: "The Regent should take good care of his royal concubine, don't hang around other people all the time and cause trouble." Hearing that, I cried even harder, my hands clutching his shirt also tightened. I wanted to explain something, but I cried so much that I was out of breath and couldn't say a word. Qi Uyen carried me up with a cold face: "Then you should find a bigger rope to tie your man, it's best to tie it to your waist, otherwise if the king gets jealous, he won't be gentle." He carried me and left, I didn't know what happened behind, I only heard chaos. Surely those people were beaten to death by Qi Uyen's secret guards. They couldn't make a sound. When I returned to the royal palace, I regained consciousness. Qi Uyen's face was so cold that it seemed like it could freeze the whole house. Even so, he still hugged me and refused to let go. I poked his chest with my index finger and mumbled: "I don't..." "Yes." His expression softened a bit. “I just think that fabric suits you.” "YES." His eyebrows relaxed a bit. "I cried because I was afraid. If you hadn't come in time, I would have lost my wife by now." Thinking back to that dangerous scene, my voice mixed with sobs. The ice and snow in his eyes immediately melted, and he sadly rubbed my head: "Next time you like something, tell your servant to buy it." I leaned against his chest, my hands lazily teasing: "Today I plan to make you a new outfit, usually you only wear black, it doesn't suit me..." The arm holding my waist tightened, I raised my head to look up. I saw his eyes filled with surprise and joy. Without waiting for me to continue, he bowed his head and kissed me. A moment later, I panted heavily in his arms and glanced at the envelope on the table that had been opened. It was a letter given to me by a servant in the morning. I was in a hurry to go out so I didn't have time to read it. "In the letter, Dung Hao's whereabouts were written. I followed her and saw her there." Te Uyen calmly admitted. I looked into his eyes and said seriously: "I have never seen that letter." He bowed his head and gently kissed my eyes like a dragonfly gliding through water: "I know." "You don't care about me, do you? So why are you still looking for me?"
