Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

Xiao Mo was busy until the evening. The three children were all there for dinner, and the two of them couldn't have a good conversation, so the topic basically revolved around the children.

It wasn't until night when the children went to bed that the two of them finally had some free time.

Ye Jintang thought, Xiao Mo didn't mention Liang Zhiyun all day, so he must mention it now.

He would not let Liang Zhiyun live in the palace without any status.

Ye Jintang finished washing up early and leaned on the bed to read a book of miscellaneous notes. This book was written by a wandering monk and described his travels on a cargo ship from an overseas island country a few years ago.

The book is two fingers thick, and Ye Jintang has read half of it. She has a completely new understanding of overseas island countries.

She was watching with great interest when Xiao Mo came over after washing up in a fawning manner.

"I just got back today and was so busy that I almost forgot about the important things. Here, let me give you this. See if you like it."

Xiao Mo took out a jade bracelet as if presenting a treasure.

The jade bracelet is not the extremely rare imperial green, but a tri-color ice-type imperial concubine bracelet.

The bracelet is a touch of rich purple and green, perfectly entangled together. From a distance it looks like a beautiful ink painting.

Such a beautiful jade bracelet, worn on Ye Jintang's fair wrist, adds a touch of gentleness.

"What do you think of my wife? Do you like her?"

"Your Majesty went to Tanqu Prefecture for an inspection, but he actually had time to wander around and buy me a bracelet. I am terrified."

Xiao Mo was obviously stunned. These words sounded strange, as if something was wrong. But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was no big problem.

Could it be that he was overthinking it?

I always feel that Ye Jintang’s return to the palace this time is a little strange.

"I didn't wander around. Tanquzhou was hit by a flood, and many people sold their valuables. I bought the tri-color bracelet on the street. When I saw it for the first time, I felt that the bracelet was a perfect match for you."

"Oh."

Ye Jintang responded casually, then she retracted her wrist and continued to read the notes in her hand.

The scenery overseas is more attractive than Xiao Mo.

"Jintang, you haven't seen me for such a long time, don't you miss me at all?"

Xiao Mo came closer like a dog-skin plaster, and his big, warm hands gently rested on her waist.

Through the thin clothes, Ye Jintang could feel his body temperature very clearly. They had been married for so many years, and she could guess what Xiao Mo was thinking as soon as he raised his tail.

The message her people sent back clearly told her that Xiao Mo did not favor Liang Zhiyun, and at least he was clean now.

But mental infidelity is still infidelity, and she doesn't want him to touch her from the bottom of her heart.

"Your Majesty, you must be exhausted from the long journey. You should rest early. I just got a travel book a few days ago and I am reading it happily. I am afraid you should go to bed later."

Xiao Mo naturally understood Ye Jintang's clear refusal.

But he couldn't figure it out. People say that a short absence makes a new marriage better. They haven't seen each other for several months, so why doesn't she miss him or have any thoughts about him?

If he hadn't been able to maintain his sanity, he would have been eaten up by her by now.

"I'm not tired at all. Since you want to read the travel notes, I'll accompany you."

As he spoke, Xiao Mo also took out a military book and sat next to Ye Jintang to read it.

It is said that spring nights are short, but Ye Jintang and Xiao Mo used such a wonderful time to read.

Xiao Mo is also a persistent person. He will not go to bed until he has eaten Ye Jintang clean today.

She didn’t know how long it had been, but Ye Jintang couldn’t bear it any longer. She closed the book in her hand, put it on the treasure chest, and prepared to go to bed.

Seeing that Ye Jintang was finally going to rest, Xiao Mo, who was standing by, quickly put the military book in his hand on top of the travel notes.

Without waiting for Ye Jintang's instructions, he raised his hand and all the candles in the inner hall were extinguished with a puff.

When the palace maids and eunuchs guarding the outer hall saw that the lights in the room were turned off, someone immediately ran to prepare hot water. According to Xiao Mo's usual habits, the palace maids and eunuchs on duty would probably not need to sleep in the second half of the night.

"Your Majesty, I am tired."

Ye Jintang grabbed Xiao Mo's head and moved him away from her face, preventing him from kissing her.

"Don't worry, leave everything to me. You just need to lie down comfortably and enjoy yourself. Let me do the hard work like exerting strength."

At this moment, Xiao Mo didn't know that Ye Jintang was holding a grudge, so how could he let him get his wish? He started to pull Ye Jintang's clothes with his hands.

"Your Majesty, did you forget something today?"

"Nothing is more important than you. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"If the emperor doesn't explain it to me today, I won't sleep with him."

The arrow was already on the string, but it was stopped abruptly by Ye Jintang. Xiao Mo felt like he would rather die than live.

"What important matter does my wife have to tell you at this critical moment? Can't we do it tomorrow?"

"It's about Liang Zhiyun. The emperor placed her in Tingyuxuan without giving her a proper status or explanation. Isn't that a bit unfair to the little girl?"

"Ah? What status? Her identity is still unknown. Once I find out her identity, it won't be too late to announce it to the world."

Xiao Mo was confused by Ye Jintang's questions. Whether Liang Zhiyun was his biological sister or not was not a trivial matter. He had to find out the truth and get enough evidence.

But when Ye Jintang heard this, the meaning immediately changed.

She just thought that Xiao Mo wanted to check Liang Zhiyun's identity and confirm that her background was innocent before he would enthrone her as a palace concubine.

Ye Jintang never expected that Xiao Mo actually fell in love with another woman.

She was so angry that she picked up the pillow beside her and smashed it on Xiao Mo's head with quite a lot of force.

"Xiao Mo, you are really amazing. What did you tell me back then? You said you would only love me, Ye Jintang, for the rest of your life. But how long have we been married and you brought back another woman? Xiao Mo, I want to ask you, is this what you call a life together?"

Having said this, Ye Jintang's voice was slightly choked. After enduring for many days, she finally couldn't hold it in any longer, and her tears fell like beads from a broken string.

Some tears fell on Xiao Mo's hands and arms, and he was so scared that he quickly lit the candle.

When he saw Ye Jintang's tear-stained face, he became completely panicked.

"Hey, Jintang, please stop crying. Why are you saying such irrelevant things for no reason? What does it have to do with Zhiyun's promise to me that I will only love you in this life?"

Xiao Mo reached out to help Ye Jintang gently wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she did not appreciate it and slapped his hand away.

"How can it be irrelevant? Xiao Mo, you are still making excuses at this time."

Ye Jintang was so angry that he thought all men were of the same bad character. They would argue even when they were not in the right place. Liang Zhiyun had already entered the palace, but he was still being stubborn.

"I'm not making excuses. These two things are totally unrelated."

Xiao Mo was completely confused, and his thoughts were completely different from Ye Jintang's.

Ye Jintang was so angry that she laughed. She said viciously, "Your Majesty, just tell me when you want to appoint Liang Zhiyun as your consort. I can prepare in advance and pack up my things early to make room for her."
