The Virtuous Concubine

Chapter 284: Affectionate but Annoyed by Ruthlessness

When Nalan heard this, he knew that Malu was teasing him on purpose, so he knelt down and begged for mercy with a smile: "Empress Defei, please spare my life. I am so lucky to see you that I can't control the expression on my face. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time."

After all this, it actually feels like a slick villain.

Doctor Gu, who was standing next to him, saw this and silently deleted it from his mind. Today, just pretend that he didn't see it. He really couldn't bear to tell the elderly Ming Xiang that his eldest son was like this when he was with Concubine De.

Ma Lu suppressed his laughter and asked Doctor Gu, whose facial expression was distorted, to write a prescription. He also dismissed the attendants before snorting and pretending to be angry and saying, "Humph, you still remember to come to see me."

Nalan was still kneeling on the ground at this time, so he simply crawled forward and sat at Malu's feet, resting his head on her knees: "A lot has happened during this period. I just found a chance to accompany you. How is the child?"

As he said this, he stood up and reached out to touch Malu's belly.

Malu gently knocked away Nalan's outstretched hand: "You are so irritable. The baby is fine. It is staying in the belly and doesn't want to come out."

Nalan chuckled, rested his head on Malu's knees again, and said gently, "Thank you for your hard work."

Malu gently stroked Nalan's hair and said softly, "You are the one who has worked hard. After all, we are newly married and it's the time of sweetness and oil. You still have time to come and see me."

As soon as these words came out, Nalan jumped up and almost hit the table.

He explained in a panic: "Malu, don't get me wrong. It was just a formality. I only have you and the child in my heart. I haven't even touched her! Really!"

After listening to Nalan's explanation, Malu's face remained calm, but he frowned slightly. Only Nalan knew that Malu's expressionless face was the sign of true anger.

"So what? You are married after all, why are you still coming near me?"

Then she pushed him away.

Nalan was so anxious that he turned around and approached Malu again, saying anxiously: "Malu, you have to believe me, I don't have any feelings for her. You are the only one in my heart from beginning to end."

Malu turned his head away and was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "What can you do now? You are already a married man, what can we do? You said you would go back and think of a way, and you came up with a way like this to hug women left and right."

After hearing what Malu said, Nalan felt extremely wronged: "You and I already have children, how can there be no other way? I don't have any children left and right."

Seeing that he was still feeling aggrieved, Malu sneered and regretted that she had given the ruby-covered gold phoenix hairpin to Bai Xia, and not been able to take it out and stab Nalan on the spot. It would have been best if she had pierced a few bloody holes to ease her anger.

She stood up and stared at him. She didn't know whether it was because of her disguise or what happened today, but she felt that Nalan was a little strange. "You don't have girls on both sides, so why do you take apart your headgear and give it away? When did the Nalan family become so shabby? And you even gave me a hairpin for weddings. Are you laughing at me for not having the chance to be someone's legal wife in this life?"

Of course, Malu said this just to irritate him. After all, after she came here, she already knew that she would not get a dedicated love, so how could she have the heart to care about the legitimate or illegitimate child?

She was just like any other girl. When she was in love, she couldn't help but say some hurtful words.

When Nalan heard this, he was immediately panicked. He really didn't mean that.

Even though he had read so many beautiful articles, he felt that he had no way to defend himself at this moment.

At that time, he really just saw that his mother had prepared so many items for the Lu family, a large area of ​​red and gold.

At that time, he felt sad for a while because Malu couldn't wear his things, so he picked out a hairpin that he thought suited Malu best and gave it to her. He really didn't mean to make fun of her.

If it was normal to coax a woman of romance, Nalan would naturally know what to say, and he wouldn't even need to coax her.

But facing his sweetheart, he could only hurriedly explain in a stammering manner:

"How could you think of me like that? I really didn't mean that. I only wanted to give you the hairpin because I thought it suited you very well. I had no other intentions. I didn't even know it was something I would use on my wedding day. There was a pile of jewelry lying there, so I just took it—"

Malu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "After stealing people, now you steal things? You are really capable!"

As she spoke, she picked up the handkerchief in her hand and gently flicked it at his face.

Nalan was a little confused by Malu's shove, but then he came to his senses, scratched his head embarrassedly, and quickly came forward to hug her tightly to prevent her from running away: "Malu, I really didn't mean it, don't say such words about breaking up with me, okay? Don't hurt my heart."

Malu looked at Nalan's cautious and apologetic look, and his heart softened, but he still said with a straight face: "Then you are not allowed to hide things from me like this in the future."

Nalan nodded repeatedly, then quickly shook his head: "How can there be a future? After just one incident, who can get married several times?"

After hearing what Nalan said, Malu sighed softly. It was not just for several times that her official man could be the groom every night.

In history, after Lu died of complications during childbirth, Rong Ruo remarried and had two concubines.

Considering his family background and status, it is indeed considered small.

Nalan then realized that the emperor had several queens. He felt that he had said the wrong thing and embarrassedly buried his head in Malu's neck, sniffing her fragrance carefully.

"Okay, I'll trust you this time. But if you do it again, I won't forgive you easily."

Nalan hugged Malu tightly and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, I will never let you down again. But..."

He stood up straight, looked at Malu from a distance, and did not finish his words.

Malu felt a little embarrassed by his gaze, but she still said with sarcasm: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beauty?"

Seeing how coquettish and playful she was, Nalan felt so soft-hearted that he felt like her was really holding his heart in her hands, letting him bend or straight.

He was actually imagining what Malu would look like if she put on the phoenix coronet and the bright red wedding dress.

Malu gave him a flirtatious look, and he blurted out in a rush of emotion: "I've seen it, but it's not enough. Malu, do you want to..."

"Do you want to wear a wedding dress one day and become my real wife?" Nalan's voice trembled slightly, with a bit of nervousness and anticipation.

Malu couldn't help laughing when she heard his wild thoughts: "What nonsense are you talking about again?"

But there was a barely perceptible glimmer of joy and longing in her eyes.

Nalan held Malu's hand tightly and said seriously: "I am not talking nonsense, I am serious. I want to give you a grand wedding."
