That night, Qi Wuyou tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. She had to admit that she, who usually had a good sleep quality, had insomnia.

It was quite speechless. She had just turned around and slept soundly in Huayang Palace, Fengyi Palace in Xuan State, and even when she had to sleep in the open on the road.

"Can't explain?" A low voice sounded beside me.

Qi Wuyou suddenly realized that it must be because she and Xuan Yelan shared a bed today. Although they had shared a room before, she slept on the bed and Xuan Yelan slept on the couch.

This is the first time two people lie in one bed.

Qi Wuyou smiled awkwardly, "Besides mother and Mei Xue, you are the only one who sleeps with me, so I am a little uncomfortable."

In the dark night, Xuan Ye opened his tightly closed eyes. He moved closer to Qi Wuyou and said word by word, "An An, you have to get used to my smell and the feeling of me accompanying you. You promised to be with me."

Qi Wuyou nodded, "Okay." She knew that Xuan Yelan felt insecure.

Doesn't she feel the same way, worried about gains and losses?

She has her mother, her sister, Mei Xue, and now... him. She is afraid that the happiness before her is just a dream.

Qi Wuyou sighed and decided to take the initiative. Someone had to take the first step.

Qi Wuyou took the initiative to approach Xuan Yelan and lay in his arms. Xuan Yelan's body stiffened, but he still reached out and hugged Qi Wuyou.

As soon as Qi Wuyou closed his eyes, he actually fell asleep.

But Xuan Yelan was not so lucky. Fortunately it was dark and no one could see him, otherwise Qi Wuyou would have seen Xuan Yelan’s blushing face.

Listening to the even breathing of the person in his arms, Xuan Yelan felt warm in his heart and quietly kissed Qi Wuyou on the forehead.

Early the next morning, Mei Xue pushed the door open as usual. Seeing the two people hugging each other on the bed, Mei Xue was stunned for a moment and quickly backed out.

Oh no, I've been used to it for so long that I forgot that His Majesty slept with the Queen last night. I'm so damned.

Liu He, who had just gone to the kitchen to find something to eat, came back and saw Mei Xue sitting at the door with a frustrated look on her face, and he understood what was going on.

He also walked over and gave her a piece of the cake in his hand.

Mei Xue looked at him, then at the pancake in his hand, and took it.

"I say," Liu He broke the silence, "When does the queen usually get up?"

Mei Xue shook her head and said, "Let's see when the queen wakes up. If His Majesty is not here, I will wake her up now."

After saying this, they both sighed and stuffed their mouths with biscuits. How long would it take for the Empress to wake up on her own?

"Or, why don't we go in and wake them up?" Mei Xue thought about it. There was a banquet today. What if she didn't get up early to prepare for the event and be late?

Liu He thought about it and nodded in agreement.

The two of them sneaked in and reached the bed. Mei Xue grabbed the quilt and silently counted to three with Liu He: one, two, three.

Mei Xue pulled back the quilt with a "swish". Xuan Yelan and Qi Wuyou were sleeping soundly, and when they woke up they looked confused.

Liu He smiled and quickly went over to help Xuan Yelan up, "Your Majesty? Your Majesty, you are awake. That's great. I have something to tell you."

After saying that, without waiting for Xuan Yelan to react, he supported Xuan Yelan and left. Before leaving, he winked at Mei Xue, and Mei Xue silently gave him a thumbs up.

By the time Xuan Yelan came to his senses, everyone had already walked out the door.

Qi Wuyou rubbed her eyes and asked, "Why are you here so early?" She hadn't gotten enough sleep yet.

Mei Xue scolded, "Your Highness, are you so happy with His Majesty that you don't want to leave? It's already noon. If you don't get up now, you won't have time to dress up."

As she spoke, Mei Xue pulled Qi Wuyou up from the bed and brought him to the dressing mirror.

Qi Wuyou was instantly awakened when he saw the clothes and jewelry held by the maid.

"Should I wear all of these?"

Qi Wuyou was stunned. Even after putting on all these, she was crushed to death instead of dying from the heat.

Mei Xue shook her head, "No, just pick a few from there."

Qi Wuyou just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Mei Xue continue, "There's more outside. Tsk, this room is too small."

Qi Wuyou: ...

There's no need to go through so much trouble, just pick a few at random, she doesn't want to attract attention.

Qi Wuyou overlooked one thing: the fact that she was Xuan Yelan's queen was already eye-catching enough.

Qi Wuyou is now just an emotionless dressing machine, allowing Mei Xue to manipulate him.

Mei Xue sighed and muttered, "I forgot to ask His Majesty Liu He what color clothes he was wearing."

Mei Xue turned to Thirteen and said, "Go ask."

Thirteen responded and went out immediately.

Qi Wuyou, "..."

Are you still wearing couple costumes?

Qi Wuyou endured for more than an hour, and Mei Xue finally fixed her up.

Xuan Yelan just happened to come over, and the two of them looked at each other's clothes.

Xuan Yelan was wearing a crimson purple robe embroidered with a flying dragon pattern, a wide belt with a snow-white auspicious cloud pattern around his waist, and a piece of high-quality purple jade.

She looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a snow-white silk skirt with silver edges, and a purple-colored long skirt with a hibiscus pattern that dragged down the ground, with a front-opening, waist-cinching, and flared sleeves. The phoenix pattern embroidered on the sleeves complemented the pattern on Xuan Yelan's clothes.

I have to say that Xuan Yelan's vision is indeed similar to Mei Xue's.

Thinking of this, I feel a little uncomfortable.

Seeing Qi Wuyou's gloomy eyes, Xuan Yelan knew what she was thinking.

He smiled and said to Liu He, "I told you, Mei Xue has the same taste as you do. Looking at the way we are dressed, we look like a couple."

When Qi Wuyou heard this, her eyes lit up. How could she forget that Xuan Yelan's clothes were all chosen by Liu He.

However, Qi Wuyou looked at Liu He, then at Mei Xue, and became suspicious. It should be impossible for the two of them to be together... right?

Just after noon, Xuan Yelan and Qi Wuyou took the gifts and drove to the palace.

On the way, Qi Wuyou felt indignant. How could this person not be so cruel? He first accepted a wave of meeting gifts in the name of a gathering, and then accepted a wave of birthday gifts.

Xuan Yelan touched Qi Wuyou's head, comforted her, and winked at him, "Okay, don't be angry. I don't know if the birthday gift can be given away yet."

After he finished speaking, he paused and said, "Otherwise, let's expose the matter today so that today's goods cannot be delivered, and we can save money."

Qi Wuyou quickly waved his hand, "Don't, don't ruin everyone's plans for this little money."

"Besides, there are only a few key ministers and foreign envoys here today. How can we enjoy the show? The melon tastes better when everyone eats it together."

Then she waved her hand again, "Besides, I'm not such a stingy person. It's just two gifts. I've prepared them a long time ago. I asked Mei Xue to find them, but they were all worthless. I'll just give them. We won't lose anything if we pay to watch the show."

After Qi Wuyou finished speaking, Xuan Yelan took her hand and said affectionately, "It's mainly because I'm worried that you have a hard time earning money, and I feel bad for you."

Qi Wuyou: (⊙_☉)

Are you okay? I'm just counting money in the palace. The money is earned by Yushu and Sister Li. Why can I be so hard-working?
