The weather in summer is changeable. In the evening, fog came up and it was so cold. Hu Luanfei wanted to hide in the Warm Spring Pavilion to spend the misty and dark night, and did not plan to walk along the wet long street to the Yangxin Palace.

However, after dinner, Xuanyuan Li sent someone to ask her to leave.

At this time, Qi Si Liao was massaging her calves, which made her feel very comfortable.

Hu Luanfei had intended not to go out, but he saw a young eunuch kneeling there with a sword beside him, his head lowered and he was very obedient. Upon closer inspection, he found that this young eunuch was the little basket he had not seen for a long time.

This pitiful look immediately softened Hu Luanfei's heart and he changed his mind.

"The sky is dark. It's going to rain." Qi Siliao gave Xiao Lanzi an umbrella. Xiao Lanzi was flattered. After taking the umbrella in a daze, he immediately remembered something and grasped the sword in his hand.

This damp Nuanchun Pavilion was dripping with countless raindrops and withered flowers, and the biting cold air made the little basket's limbs tremble.

Qi Siliao moved closer to him, "What are you afraid of?"

Xiao Lanzi got straight to the point: "Reporting to the War King, I, your servant, am afraid of you..."

Qi Siliao's expression darkened, and he looked even more frightening. Xiao Lanzi tightly grasped his sword, tremblingly walked around behind Hu Luanfei, and carefully poked his head out.

"So that sword is used to defend against me?"

The little basket nodded like pounding garlic.

Qi Si Liao looked mean and didn't want to talk to Xiao Lan Zi, which immediately caused Hu Luan Fei to laugh at him, "Who told you to have a bad face? You scared Xiao Lan Zi so much that she put on her sword."

Little Basket still nodded.

Qi Siliao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, no words came out. He stared coldly at his little wife who was smiling like a flower.

Hu Luanfei glanced at him and said teasingly, "Why, you're not happy after I said a few words to you."

"You said that this king looks like a bad guy."

"Yeah, they do look like it when they're not smiling."

Qi Siliao grinned in response. Xiao Lanzi drew his sword directly at him and took a few steps forward in panic, trying to stand between Hu Luanfei and Qi Siliao.

"You are very brave." Hu Luanfei patted Xiao Lanzi's shoulder, and then reached over Xiao Lanzi to gently pat Qi Si Liao's handsome face, and comforted him: "Okay, don't have a stern face all day long. If you are unhappy, I am unhappy too. If I am unhappy, the baby in my belly will be unhappy too. You don't want it to be born with a bitter face, right? Smile."

Qi Si Liao's face was rubbed by a pair of soft and boneless hands until the lines on his face became loose. His gaze moved slightly to her abdomen. His eyes softened and he didn't look so cold. This man was great.

Then Hu Luanfei had an idea and thought, "It's hard to travel in the rain. Why don't you go and report to His Majesty for me? I don't have to run there and back again. Not only will I be baptized by the drizzle in vain, but I don't think I will have anything good to say to His Majesty. The less contact, the less resentment."

Xiao Lanzi immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty wants to see you, not the War King."

"The King of War and I are one and the same."

Xiao Lanzi shrank her neck and whispered, "But you are His Majesty's blood, and he is not. His Majesty wants to see his daughter, not his son-in-law..."

"Huh?" Qi Siriao frowned and glared at Xiao Lanzi.

Perhaps thinking that Hu Luanfei was someone he could back up, Xiao Lanzi straightened his posture and said in a very firm manner: "Your Majesty said that if I cannot invite Princess Zhan, I will use this sword to cut my own neck."

This is worse than before!

Xiao Lanzifei's face turned red, and he clenched his fists, but he couldn't stop his body from shaking. It was obvious that he wanted to cut his throat. But he seemed to control himself and suppressed his anger, and only let out a pitiful plea, which was directed to Qi Siliao, but Qi Siliao just pretended not to hear it.

"It's raining today, and I'm thinking about the princess' pregnancy..."

Xiao Lanzi immediately said, "Your Majesty has sent a sedan chair, and the umbrella in my hand is big enough so that the rain won't get on the princess. Your Majesty can rest assured."

In fact, when Qi Siliao handed the umbrella to Xiaolanzi, he intended to let Hu Luanfei go to the Yangxin Palace. However, Hu Luanfei didn't want to go there, so he didn't go.

"Since you said so." Qi Si Liao spoke, opened the umbrella and moved it over Hu Luanfei's head, "I can't refuse the little basket, my beloved concubine, is it willing to go to the Yangxin Palace in person?"

The shivering appearance of the little basket in the rain aroused Hu Luanfei's sympathy for no reason. "Forget it, go down and change into clean clothes before serving in the Yangxin Palace. I will go with the King of War, so you don't have to follow."

"Yes, thank you for your consideration, Princess."

"Oh, it's my fault that I delayed you. You should go quickly."

After Xiao Lanzi retreated, Qi Si Liao just stared at her without saying a word, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

Hu Luanfei couldn't keep glaring back at him like that, for fear that he wouldn't be able to bear it any longer and would give him a slap in the face, so he rolled his eyes repeatedly when he was stared at like that.

We rode in a sedan chair all the way to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity. The rain did not stop but became heavier. The diffuse white mist enveloped the entire Beiqiu Palace in a hazy state.

Qi Siliao was walking on the long street with an umbrella, and raindrops fell on the umbrella, blooming into small water splashes. The umbrella was slightly raised to reveal half of his face, which suddenly appeared in her eyes in the rain and fog. As he smiled at her with pursed lips, the surrounding scenes seemed to be deliberately slowed down, like an old movie that had been rendered, engraved in her heart frame by frame.

Only then did she clearly feel that having such an outstanding man as her husband, she began to feel a little uneasy.

When they arrived at the Yangxin Palace and just lifted the curtain, Qi Siliao's umbrella was extended towards her, with most of the umbrella leaning towards her. Qi Siliao's back was already wet with rain, and his clothes stuck tightly to his thick muscles.

Fearing that he would catch a cold, Hu Luanfei hurried to the Yangxin Palace. The steps were shining under the rain, and they were slightly slippery. She walked as slowly and carefully as possible to avoid falling.

Qi Siliao was close by, holding an umbrella in his left hand and supporting her with his right hand. The raindrops falling from the umbrella disappeared on his shoulders. Hu Luanfei couldn't bear to see him get soaked, so she raised her left hand and pushed the umbrella a little towards him.

"It's fine for me, your Majesty. Just take care of yourself first."

It seemed like they had walked for millions of years to climb these few short steps. At this time, a group of palace servants were carrying the supplies needed for the Yangxin Palace, and as they passed by the two of them, one of them slipped, and the item in his hand flew forward, hitting the first step, knocking the lid open, and the items inside flowed down the steps one by one in the rain.

"That's lamp oil, princess, be careful."

Hu Luanfei didn't react in time and her foot stepped on the lamp oil, causing her to slip. Her heavy body made it difficult for her to maintain her balance and she was about to fall on the stairs. Fortunately, Qi Siliao was quick to throw away the umbrella and hold her steadily in his arms.

The soles of his feet were also greased with oil, so he couldn't move. Seeing that the two of them had difficulty moving, the palace servants hurriedly put down their things and came over to lend a hand.
