I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

Chu Hanxiang raised his hand and scratched his head, then laughed:

"This is what happened. I have several women in this prince's mansion, but don't worry, I will divorce them soon and let you be the crown princess..."

It was just as she had guessed, but it was actually a good thing for her, as it could be a reason for her to refuse to marry him.

She nodded calmly without any surprise or joy.

"Okay, I can wait."

Her calmness surprised Chu Hanxiang.

"Aren't you angry?"

"What's there to be angry about? You are the crown prince of Northern Chu. It would be abnormal if you don't have a few women in your mansion."

Seeing her so considerate, Chu Hanxiang was very moved and nodded repeatedly.

"I thought you would make a fuss after knowing the truth, but I didn't expect you to be so righteous. Okay, I will definitely not let you down in the future."

After leaving these words, he stepped out of the carriage and told the people around him:

"Go and inform Prince Rui that Princess Rujing will temporarily go to the Crown Prince's Mansion to stay with Princess Xi."

"Yes."

The subordinate responded and retreated. Chu Hanxiang then said:

"Go back to the Crown Prince's Mansion and clean up Qiuxiang Garden for Princess Xi to live in. Give orders for everyone to come out and welcome Princess Xi."

After giving the order, he lifted the curtain door again.

"Xi girl, the prince's palace is just ahead. Go back and have a rest first. I'll take you to the palace tomorrow morning."

Xi girl?

Along the way, he called her by different names countless times, which made her laugh and cry.

She nodded to him again, "Thank you for your care, Your Highness. I am really tired and I really want to take a good rest."

Upon hearing this, Chu Hanxiang nodded continuously and once again called on everyone to set off.

Their carriage soon stopped at the gate of the Prince's Mansion. Bai Lan called softly to the sedan chair:

"Miss, here we are."

Hearing Bai Lan's voice, Luo Nianxi guessed that when she got off the carriage, she would definitely see a group of faces glaring at her, and would also face the jealous eyes of Chu Hanxiang's women.

But now that she is here, no matter what she will face, she will face it bravely.

Thinking of this, she stood up and got off the carriage with the help of Bai Lan.

Chu Hanxiang hurriedly came over with a smile.

"Xi girl, this is my Prince's Mansion. It will be your home from now on."

After saying that, he wanted to go up to her and hold her hand, but she refused. He didn't get angry, but raised his hand to the women standing at the door.

"What are you guys doing standing there like wooden sticks? Come over here and pay your respects to Princess Xi."

Upon hearing this, the women came over slowly.

"Your Highness, isn't it Prince Rui who is going to marry a woman? Why did you bring a woman back?"

Hearing this, Chu Hanxiang's face suddenly turned cold.

"When is it your turn to worry about my affairs? Hurry up and pay your respects to Princess Xi. From now on, Princess Xi will live in Qiuxiang Garden. She likes quietness, so don't disturb her if there is nothing to do."

"Prince, isn't Qiuxiang Garden your bedroom? If you let her live there, where will you live?"

"I can just move to Yuhua Palace. Qiuxiang Garden is spacious and Xi girl will live comfortably there."

The Crown Princess Hu Jiaoyue, who had been silent the whole time, snorted coldly.

"Your Highness, I have always wanted to live in Qiuxiang Garden but you refused to let me. Now you let this woman live here. Why?"

Chu Hanxiang turned around and glared at her fiercely.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will give up your Qiuyuyuan."

Hu Jiaoyue bit her lower lip angrily, glared at Luo Nianxi hatefully, and dared not say another word.

When Chu Hanxiang turned to look at Luo Nianxi, his expression immediately changed.

"Xi girl, you must be tired after walking for such a long time. Come into the mansion and rest."

Luo Nianxi nodded slightly, and under his guidance, she took Leng Rujing and a few maids into the Prince's Mansion and went straight to Qiuxiang Garden.

The women stood at the gate and began to murmur angrily.

"Did you see that? The prince's eyes widened when he looked at this woman."

"That's right, he still smiled at that woman. He hasn't smiled at me for several years."

"Yes, he also let her live in Qiuxiang Garden. That's his own bedroom. Normally, we are not allowed to enter. But now he lets that woman live there. Sister, you can't just ignore this matter."

Hu Jiaoyue's face had turned livid at this moment. She wanted to intervene, but would it be useful? Could she intervene?

She had been married to Chu Hanxiang for more than ten years, but they had no children. How could she control him? What right did she have to control him?

Thinking of this, she angrily swung the handkerchief in her hand and snorted unhappily.

"If you have the guts, go find His Highness. What's the point of telling me this?"

Leaving these sour words behind, she strode into the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

Luo Nianxi and Leng Rujing were arranged to stay in Qiuxiang Garden. Chu Hanxiang specifically ordered his servants to replace his original bed with new bedding so that Luo Nianxi could sleep there, while Leng Rujing could sleep in a side hall.

Leng Rujing, who always loved to be the best, no longer cared about this, because the early reactions of pregnancy made her miserable and she had no intention of caring about anything else.

After Chu Hanxiang arranged for them to stay, he took Chu Hanrui to the palace to report.

After all this running around, Luo Nianxi felt really tired. She told Bai Lan to guard the door while she wanted to take a nap.

Lying on the bed, the moment she closed her eyes, she thought of Leng Yiyan.

According to the date she calculated, she had been away from Prince Yan's Mansion for more than thirty days. At this time, he should be able to walk. She really wanted to see his excitement when he actually stood up, but unfortunately she couldn't see it.

Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief, slowly closed her eyes, and tried to let herself sleep for a while and not think about it.

……

Prince Yan's Mansion

Leng Yiyan sat on the edge of the bed, watching Ling Xiao remove the gauze from his feet one circle at a time, with an unspeakable look in his eyes.

Ling Xiao was a little excited, so his hands were shaking.

Leng Yiyan frowned. Ling Xiao was so clumsy. If Luo Nianxi were here, she would definitely not let him wait so long.

He pushed him impatiently.

"I'll do it myself. Your hands are so clumsy."

Ling Xiao did not give up his position, but comforted him:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. It will be ready soon. It will be ready soon. At such an important moment, I must personally participate. For today, I did not sleep all night yesterday."

It wasn't just one night that he didn't sleep. He hadn't slept well in the more than one month since Luo Nianxi left.

After a while, Ling Xiao removed all the gauze on his feet. Leng Yiyan put his feet on the ground and tried to stand up.

Ling Xiao nervously wanted to help him, but he refused.

"Don't move. The princess said that I just got out of bed and need to exercise properly."

Hearing him mention the word "Princess", Ling Xiao felt inexplicably sad, especially when he saw that the prince said it so naturally, as if the princess had never left here, he felt even more sad for the prince.

Just as he was stunned, Leng Yiyan really stood up. Although he was holding on to the bed frame, he really stood up.

Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao danced with excitement, and kept muttering,

"That's great, that's great, Your Majesty, you can really stand up? This is simply... it's simply a miracle!"

Leng Yiyan's expression was extremely solemn at this moment. It seemed that Luo Nianxi had not lied to him, and he could really stand up.

He gritted his teeth and took a tentative step forward...

He succeeded, he took his first step since he was disabled.

At this time, not only Ling Xiao was excited, he was also extremely excited.

He felt his hands were shaking and he felt like his heart was about to jump out.

"Nian Xi, I can leave now. I shouldn't have doubted you. I really can leave now."
