Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

The rain was heavy and Ran Qianxi was trapped without an umbrella. There was no cave in the forest, so she had to find a towering tree to take shelter from the rain.

"What a lousy weather..."

There was a loud rumble of thunder, which inadvertently frightened her.

She knew hiding was not a solution, so she might as well run back to the tent.

I ran a few steps rashly and instantly lost my sense of direction, completely forgetting that I was a person with poor sense of direction.

"They say you won't die if you don't do anything, and it's true... I really have nothing better to do than run around."

She looked around and felt that the direction was wrong, so she took a few steps back and accidentally fell into a trap.

"oops!"

She fell into the pit with a plop. The rain was getting heavier, so she immediately picked up the straw mat on the ground and covered her head with it.

The embarrassment of being drenched was solved, but the next thing to face was the danger of being soaked like a corpse.

If the heavy rain continues, the pit will definitely collapse. Even if it doesn't collapse, it won't take long for such a narrow space to be filled with water.

"Damn, this is so embarrassing. I am the tyrant of the imperial city, the little tyrant of Jizhou. When have I ever been so desperate after going through so many hardships..."

"Help! Is there anyone here?!"

She shouted a few times but no one showed up. She wanted to climb up by herself, but the earth pit was very loose and there was no foothold at all.

"Forget it... I won't die here... I haven't slept with Xu Yuanchao yet..."

Loud complaints were heard from the animal trap. People were extremely sensitive about their own names, and Xu Yuanchao, who had come over, heard them in a moment.

"Help! Is there anyone here? I'm about to turn into a corpse..."

After identifying the direction, Xu Yuan rushed towards it at full speed and saw a pit. He leaned down and Ran Qian instantly saw hope.

"Hurry up and save me, I can give you a lot of money!"

Xu Yuan looked around and didn't find anything to climb, so he jumped in in a hurry.

"Hey!"

This action scared Ran Qianxi, but how come someone jumped down...

"What's wrong with you? Why are you..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Xu Yuanchao's face clearly.

"My mother...whatever you want will come true?"

He took a few steps closer and removed the straw mat on Ran Qianxi's head, and moved the umbrella half an inch to the side.

The woman who had made him look back at her on the long street that day was now as dirty as a stray kitten in the market, and his strong desire to protect her burst out.

"No... Although I didn't expect you to show up, what I didn't expect was, are you stupid? Why did you jump down too? Huh? If you didn't have the tools to save me, wouldn't you go back and call for help? Huh? How did you become a marquis? I'm really surprised. Have you really fought on the battlefield for more than a decade without a defeat? You bought your official position with money, brother..."

Xu Yuanchao tilted the umbrella a little more, and Ran Qianxi suddenly felt full of security.

"Ran Yuelian has been a low-key official for more than ten years and has never made any mistakes. How could he have given birth to a daughter as unreliable as you?"

"If it's not Big Brother, who is wrong with us? If I see a pit here, will I jump down?"

Boom!

A loud thunder ripped through the woods, and Ran Qianxi covered her ears in annoyance.

"It's so annoying to keep fighting."

Xu Yuanchao smiled faintly, and touched the hair on her forehead as if possessed by a ghost. Ran Qianxi was stunned and covered her body again.

"What are you doing? Can we find a way to get out first before doing these obscene things..."

Xu Yuanchao stared at her intriguingly, then smiled lightly and turned his head away.

"The little girl's film is tasteless. This duke is not interested in it."

Ran Qianxi felt insulted by such obvious disdain.

"Who are you saying has no taste? Have you tried it and said it has no taste?"

Xu Yuanchao turned his head back, and Ran Qianxi's infatuation came back again.

"Mom, it's still too beautiful... I can't watch it anymore..."

Xu Yuan smiled at her, took her waist and used her force to fly up, which immediately surprised Ran Qianxi.

"Oh my god...what kind of skill is this...so amazing..."

As soon as the two got ashore, Tan Qianhuan came over with an umbrella, and Xu Yuanchao casually let go of Ran Qianxi.

"Where are you stuck?"

Ran Qianxi walked forward with a smile on her face, and Tan Qianhuan moved the umbrella slightly away.

"I fell into a pit, and Yu Anhou passed by and picked me up."

After Ran Qianxi finished speaking, she turned around and bowed to Xu Yuanchao. He had never seen such a well-mannered Miss Ran before. He couldn't help but smile, and then left in a graceful manner.

"Don't fall into the pit next time."

As Xu Yuanchao walked away, Ran Qianxi realized that her leg was injured. She hissed and was supported by Tan Qianhuan.

"Hurt your leg?"

Ran Qianxi grinned and nodded.

"Well, maybe I stayed there for a while."

Tan Qianhuan handed her the umbrella and picked her up without saying a word.

"Hey..."

Then he shook her in his hands and pulled her into his arms.

"Just hold your umbrella."

As one stunning face after another came over, Ran Qianxi blushed and her heart beat fast, and she looked like a little bird in his arms.

Tan Qianhuan carried her away, and ignored Ran Qiongxi and Wei Jiguo who came out to look for her. He did not stop even when they came to the emperor's tent.

The whole audience was shocked. Ran Qiongxi and Wei Jiguo who were following behind were also stunned. Even Baili Yong found it unbelievable.

"King of Jibei?"

Tan Qianhuan's power is not to be underestimated. If the daughter of the president of the Hanlin Academy marries him again, I'm afraid the entire Dachang will slowly change hands.

Tan Qianhuan carried her straight out of the hunting ground. The red dress and white skirt seemed to be a perfect match made in heaven. That feeling stimulated everyone.

The two of them walked onto the carriage and finally found a piece of pure land.

"are you cold?"

Although Ran Qianxi didn't shiver, she was still cold after being soaked by the rain.

Tan Qianhuan took out a cloak and handed it over.

"Take off your coat and put this on first, I'll take you back right away."

Tan Qianhuan just wanted her to take off her outer clothes, but she took them off piece by piece until she was left with only her bellyband and panties...

Tan Qianhuan's heart tightened and he immediately turned around and handed her the cloak.

"Go back to the palace."

"Yes, go!"

The coachman shouted and the horses galloped at a steady pace. Ran Qianxi took the cloak and wrapped herself in it when she fell into Tan Qianhuan's arms.

"Be careful."

Tan Qianhuan held her steadily, and her cloak accidentally slipped off.

He immediately turned his eyes away, and Ran Qianxi wrapped herself up again awkwardly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"It's okay. We are already familiar with each other."

Ran Qianxi smiled slightly and sat on his lap.

"I'm still cold."

Tan Qianhuan clenched his right hand in confusion, but finally hugged her.

"Godfather, if there was another woman in your arms, would you hold her like this?"

"No, I won't let a woman sit on my lap."

Ran Qianxi happily raised her upper body.

"So I'm the first and only one?"

"Yes."

"Haha, that's good."
