Chapter 19

When Chu Chen left Dongling last year, Zixi had just ascended the throne and had not yet supported Feng Weiyu as prime minister.

Chu Chen has been back in Xiling for more than a year, and he was in poor health as soon as he came back. At first, the imperial doctors said that it might be because they were not adapting to the local conditions, but unexpectedly, they became more and more serious later. They spent almost half of the year sleeping in bed.

Logically speaking, he could not have known that Zixi liked Prime Minister. But at this moment, he seemed to know the affairs of the Dongling government.

"...I heard someone say it." Chu Chen lay halfway down at the head of the bed, curling his eyes and smiling slightly, "When his health was not so bad, he entered the palace to attend a palace banquet. I heard the emperor mention it inadvertently."

Have you mentioned it accidentally?

Zixi smiled and raised his eyebrows: "Why did Emperor Xiling suddenly talk about me?"

"There is no reason. I just mentioned casually when I was going to choose a princess for the princess at the banquet."

Chu Chen glanced at her, his tone seemed a little depressed: "He said that the newly ascended Queen of Dongling had just started to fall in love with her, and she was happy with a man, and even helped to support this man to the position of prime minister. In the next year, she was very likely to be the largest emperor in the Queen's harem, who could take charge of the government."

The emperor of Xiling did mention this matter, and even when he talked about it, he felt that such a little girl's behavior was not in line with the demeanor of a king of a country.

Of course, because of this, I didn't take the little queen seriously at all.

However, Chu Chen's news was not learned from the emperor. He even learned earlier than the emperor that Zixi fell in love with the young Prime Minister Feng Weiyu.

But he can't let her know about these things for the time being.

Zixi nodded, as if accepting his explanation.

After a moment of silence, she said, "You just said that you are afraid you won't get what you want... What are your wishes?"

Chu Chen fell silent.

"Can't you say it?"

"No." Chu Chen shook his head and sighed. The young man's eyebrows were handsome. Every time he smiled, he always felt that he was boundless. "It's just that this wish is a bit petty. If he can't get what he wants, he feels like he is just a joke."

Zixi looked at him quietly, and nodded casually for a moment: "Since that's the case, then I won't say it."

Chu Chen was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Shunwubian stared at her for a moment, and Chu Chen said depressedly: "If I don't say it, your Majesty will not ask?"

"Otherwise?" Zixi was a little puzzled, "You don't want to say it, can I force you?"

Chu Chen choked.

He curled his lips and said, "If Your Majesty asks twice, maybe I'll say it."

Zixi smiled slightly: "I don't like to force others to do anything."

Chu Chen was suffocated: "But I want to say it again."

Zixi looked at him quietly and said, "Then I will listen to it."

Chu Chen suddenly had an illusion that the girl seemed to be waiting for the last sentence with great care...

"When Your Holy Holy Ho was in charge of the rule of law and elected the royal husband in the year, are I qualified to run for the election?"

Chu Chen said, without waiting for Zixi to show surprise, and couldn't wait to add: "Chu Chen is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and thinks he is good at his appearance. His Majesty also knows about talent and learning. I think he is as good as a prince."

The boy's voice seemed a little anxious, a little different from his calm and composed attitude. From these words, you could hear some urgent and sincere expectations.
