I just want to be a princess, no, you want to be a queen

Chapter 302: Initial Abnormality

Where will people go?

Mountain Temple,

Still standing quietly halfway up the mountain, overlooking the ups and downs of the world.

Lu Mingyang pushed the door open and walked in, holding his breath and listening attentively to the sounds from inside.

"Master Little Monk, are you there?"

Her soft and gentle voice, with a hint of coquettishness, still did not elicit any reaction from the inner room. Lu Mingyang sighed and turned back to close the temple door.

"Not here!" A deep voice came from inside.

Are you afraid of leaving?

Lu Mingyang held back his laughter as he walked over, clasping his hands together. "Little Monk Master, please help me. I've made my husband angry. Can you tell me how to make him happy?"

"What does it have to do with me!"

Oh, there's really no mercy at all. Lu Mingyang sat down against the door. The door suddenly opened, and she fell into an angry embrace. A ferocious face appeared before her eyes.

"The ground is cold!"

"Then I'll sit on you."

Lu Mingyang hugged his neck, kicked his legs, and sat in the arms of the ferocious Yan Luo.

Does this count as feeding the tiger with her own body?

However, the tiger had no intention of eating humans. Faced with the delicious food that was delivered to his door, he actually turned away.

"Chu Mingzheng!" Lu Mingyang chuckled. "Since liking me makes you so miserable, then you should just stop liking me."

"What did you say?"

Chu Mingzheng turned his head angrily, and Lu Mingyang held his face and kissed him.

Chu Mingzheng pushed him away angrily, "Don't use the same tactics you used against Jin Yiluo against me. I find it disgusting."

Lu Mingyang tearfully questioned, "Chu Mingzheng, we are the closest people in this world. Are you happy that you stabbed me in the heart?"

What she asked was not this sentence, but the heart-wrenching words he said in the palace today.

Chu Mingzheng asked back: "What about you?"

"I was wrong."

She shouldn't have been so self-righteous as to remind him that the Queen Mother didn't love him. Even though the Queen Mother cared most about the Qin family, how could she not care about him?

Lu Mingyang rested her hand against his forehead, her eyes full of light. "Chu Mingzheng, do you know why Mother agreed to your adoption?"

Chu Mingzheng didn't know why she asked that question, but he answered seriously: "Because the imperial power is supreme, and disobedience is not tolerated."

"No!" Lu Mingyang shook his head firmly: "Because Mother is afraid that one day you will hate her."

At that time, everyone knew what kind of person he would become when he came to the capital.

"She's not afraid of anything except you. And me."

Lu Mingyang caressed Chu Mingzheng's tearful face and said, "Chu Mingzheng, I didn't choose to be with you because you can win. Instead, as long as I'm with you, I'll be happy even if I lose."

"Yangyang!"

Chu Mingzheng picked up his beloved treasure and kissed her passionately. The woman's fragrance gradually soothed the panic in his eyes.

"Yangyang, I didn't mean to make you sad. I was just afraid that you would look down on me."

"Why?" Lu Mingyang opened his blurry eyes.

Chu Mingzheng said, "I knew it was Qin Miao who framed Lady Xu, but I still kept her in the mansion. If I hadn't been selfish and disregarded justice, the child wouldn't have been lost. This is my retribution."

"Fool, you are too demanding of yourself. If everyone were like you, would there still be anyone in this world?"

"Yangyang, I've always wanted to ask you something."

"You ask."

Chu Mingzheng held Lu Mingyang's hand and pressed it against the scar on his chest. "I want to ask you, did you ever doubt me back then?"

"No, not even for a moment. Because... I don't believe that you would want me to die."

Chu Mingzheng hurriedly kissed her, swallowing the last word "death" into his stomach. His movements were too passionate, making it hard to resist.

They seem to be getting more and more outrageous.

Lu Mingyang reminded: "Shouldn't we go back?"

Chu Mingzheng stood up with Lu Mingyang in his arms, entered the secret passage, and asked, "Yangyang, have you ever been to this secret passage before?"

"Of course I've been in, otherwise how would I know that the young monk master would lie."

Lu Mingyang pinched his face, and Chu Mingzheng bit her hand in return.

"My Yangyang is intelligence."

"Intelligent Yangyang wants to ask His Majesty a favor." Lu Mingyang leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Please ask Concubine Jing to pass on a message to me. I'm worried that someone on her side might reveal the truth. Please arrange for someone to pass on the message for me."

"That depends on what the clever Yangyang does!"

……

The people Chu Mingzheng arranged were very reliable, and Concubine Jing's news from the palace was very timely. Because of the monthly letters from home and Lu Mingyang's promise, Concubine Jing was very attentive to Concubine Song's every move.

On this day, Zhu Cong handed the things sent by Concubine Jing to the princess.

"The Imperial Concubine Jing discovered that every time the Emperor went to Xiefang Palace, the small kitchen would light a fire. She said that Imperial Concubine Song had never had this habit before. Then she discovered that every time the Emperor went to Houjiaoli, he would throw away some food."

"Hibiscus cake?"

Lu Mingyang opened the thing Zhu Cong sent him and sniffed it.

Zhu Cong said: "It's just this time, it's different every time."

"I'll see a doctor tomorrow." Lu Mingyang put away the lotus cake and found Zhu Cong still standing there. He asked, "Anything else?"

Zhu Cong took out a blank piece of paper.

That was a letter written by Jin Yiluo.

Lu Mingyang frowned: "Didn't I tell you, don't give it to me, just burn it."

It's not that she couldn't read it, but Jin Yiluo's writing was too corny. Moreover, he didn't know how to use idioms and even used them randomly. He wrote things like "You are not allowed to be a slut, wait until I marry you." Did he know that it was an insult?

Zhu Cong said awkwardly, "I have read it and I think he asked you to reply."

"Then be on guard." Lu Mingyang slapped his head.

The next day, Lu Mingyang broke the lotus cake into five pieces and had five doctors examine it. No one found anything abnormal, but the doctors gave different results.

Some say it can refresh the mind, some say it can help with sleep and calm the nerves, and some say it can replenish qi and blood. They are all different.

Although no one said it was poisonous, it's not normal that they all said different things.

Lu Mingyang slapped the lotus cake on Chu Mingzheng's desk, then sat down on the couch beside him, feeling exhausted. He sighed, "If only Leng Lingfeng were here."

"What did you say?" A face appeared before my eyes.

Lu Mingyang quickly blocked his way, saying disdainfully, "Why are you so jealous? I'm being serious. Tell me, do you want to send it to him?"

Chu Mingzheng reminded: "There is a plague in the city, who dares to enter?"

"That's right! Even if we could deliver it, it would have gone bad. We'd be targeted again." Lu Mingyang asked, "Your Highness, what do you think Concubine Song wants to do? Poison the Emperor?"

"How could it be?" This didn't make sense no matter how I thought about it. "I'm still here, fine. Who's backing her up for poisoning the emperor?"

"But I always feel that she is planning something big. I'll have Concubine Jing keep a close eye on her." She was thinking seriously when she heard someone laughing. "What are you laughing at?" she asked dissatisfiedly.

Chu Mingzheng said happily: "It feels so good to have a wife to protect me."
