Chapter 164: Hidden Feelings

She is willing to abandon the splendid glory, abandon the noble status, and wander the world with him, as long as she can be with him. Chu Mohan smiled indulgently and rubbed her head: "You have a good rest, I will let people prepare the carriage, and we will go back to the Chu State Mansion today."

"Don't! I don't want to leave now." Chu Wanxiang hugged Chu Mohan and didn't let go, "Mohan, stay for a few more days." Don't worry, I'll talk to the Queen Mother."

Chu Mohan hesitated for a while, and finally compromised: "Okay then. I'll arrange everything first, and we'll go back right away. You sleep for a while, and I'll ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a medicine to stabilize the fetus, and you can rest well after taking it."

"You don't have to do this for me, it's too much trouble." Chu Wanxiang glanced at him with disgust, "You're busy with yours, I'll sleep when I'm tired."

"I'm not around, you have to take care of yourself, you know?" Chu Mohan refused to give up and told her, and when he saw her nodding, he went out.

In the evening, Chu Mohan returned to the dormitory, but he didn't see Chu Wanxiang's shadow.

"Your Majesty, the queen mother is bathing, and said that if you come back, you will eat first, and you don't have to wait for her." A grandmother replied respectfully.

"I see." Chu Mohan nodded lightly and turned around to go to the study.

Not long after Chu Mohan arrived in the study, Chu Wanxiang changed into a plain dress and walked in.

Chu Mohan was slightly surprised, raised his eyes to look at Chu Wanxiang, but unexpectedly bumped into Chu Wanxiang's watery gaze, he immediately looked away: "Why did you come out wearing such a thin out?"

Chu Wanxiang walked up to him with a smile, sat down with his arm, and said coquettishly, "I'm wearing thick clothes, I'm afraid you're worried."

Chu Mohan untied the cloak and hung it on the shelf: "I asked the kitchen to prepare the dishes you like to eat. How do you taste it, does it suit your appetite?"

Chu Wanxiang took a piece of fish meat and handed it to Chu Mohan's mouth, and Chu Mohan swallowed it: "The things Xiangxiang feeds are delicious."

Chu Wanxiang sneered: "The oil tone is smooth, how can there be half the majesty of the emperor."

Chu Mohan raised his thick black sword eyebrows: "I will only be oily and smooth with you."

A red cloud flew over Chu Wanxiang's face: "Don't be ashamed."

Chu Mohan coughed lowly, and Zhengse said, "Xiangxiang, your body is weak and you need to rest."

"I want to play a little longer and go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning."

Chu Mohan pondered for a long time: "Xiangxiang, your current physical condition is not suitable for horseback riding. I will settle everything as soon as possible and accompany you back to Beijing."

Listening to Chu Mohan's words, Chu Wanxiang's heart swelled with sweetness and happiness, and nodded: "Well, I'll listen to you."

Two days later, the two returned to the capital and announced to the world at Chu Wanxiang's birthday banquet. Chu Wanxiang was named a concubine, and her name was "Concubine Shu". Because of his meritorious service, Chu Mohan was promoted to the third level of official, crowned Taifu, and given the imperial history platform to manage literature, military books, punishments and other matters. As for the harem, it is still in charge of the original virtuous concubine. Chu Wanxiang didn't like to compete with him for power and profit, so he handed over the power of Fengyin to Concubine Xian. Although Concubine Xian was happy, she still reminded Chu Mohan: "The emperor is still young, and there are no concubines in the harem, which will inevitably cause criticism. The concubine has a suggestion, I wonder if the emperor can take it?"

"You say." Chu Mohan glanced at Concubine Xian and motioned for her to continue.

Concubine Xian pondered, "I wonder if the emperor is considering accepting concubines?"

"There's no hurry." Chu Mohan shook his head, "Xiangxiang's body has not recovered yet, I will bear with it for the time being."

"In that case...... The emperor can choose a concubine selectively, or include a show girl into the palace as a concubine. If the emperor really doesn't like it, the concubine can also recruit a few beauties for the emperor, and you have to choose a concubine to fill the harem."

Chu Wanxiang was shocked when she heard this: "Sister Xian, don't mess around. I know that Mo Han is good to me, and he also cherishes me, and he doesn't want me to encounter gossip. But I don't want Mo Han to be taken by other women. I don't think there is anyone in this world who treats me as well as Mo Han, and if it weren't for Mo Han, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive now."

Chu Wanxiang took a deep breath, her eyes reddened slightly: "So I really don't want Mo Han to be criticized because of me, and it's not worth it to let other women share our love." c

Chu Mohan was so sad to see her

, the bottom of his heart throbbed, and he reached out and stroked Chu Wanxiang's cheek: "Fool, how can I give it up? Since you don't like it, then don't choose a concubine."

Concubine Xian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Okay, the concubine will organize this draft for the emperor."

Chu Mohan nodded: "Okay."

When he ascended the throne as the emperor, the harem was vacant, and the ministers admonished and asked to choose a few concubines to stabilize the country. He didn't agree at the time, and later Chu Wanxiang went back to his parents' house to recuperate, so he didn't mention it again. This matter has been delayed again and again, and now that Chu Wanxiang has recovered, he wants to take this opportunity to compensate Chu Wanxiang.

"I will ask Sister Xianfei for the selection of concubines this time, you can work hard." After Chu Mohan finished saying this, he suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked, "Xiangxiang, I heard my father say that you are not in good health, what is the reason?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm a little cold this time." Chu Wanxiang said perfunctorily.

"Really?" Chu Mohan stared at her eyes, "Xiangxiang, you can't lie to me."

Chu Wanxiang sighed, revealing a helpless and guilty look: "I am indeed sick, but the imperial doctors are helpless, and I have no choice but to drink medicine every day to maintain my body temperature."

Chu Mohan's eyebrows raised, a little suspicious: "I believe this. You don't usually like to drink medicine, but this time you insist on drinking it every day, there must be something hidden."

Chu Wanxiang lowered her eyes to hide the panic in her eyes: "It's because I miss my father and mother too much, and I feel uncomfortable, so I want to drink medicine to relieve my sadness. Mo Han, don't force me, I just want to be quiet now."

Chu Mohan sighed: "Xiangxiang, if I insist that you tell me the truth, you won't tell you even if you die, won't you?"

"Hmm," Chu Wanxiang pursed her lips, "I don't dare to let you know, I'm afraid you will dislike me." I know that my life is hard, and I am a Kefu life, and you should not be with me. I'm afraid I'll hurt you, so I'd rather avoid you than stay by your side. Mo Han, you don't know how good you have been to me over the years. I know you're good to me, but I'm not qualified to have all your feelings, and I shouldn't use your good to blackmail you with anything, it's not fair to you."

Chu Mohan was stunned for a long time, and suddenly reached out to hug her, and a deep voice sounded in his ears: "Xiangxiang, no matter who you are, no matter what your destiny is, I don't mind!" I like you, just you! I will marry you, and I will marry you alone!"

"What? Don't you want to?" Chu Wanxiang blinked her eyes, the water was shining, and she looked very delicate.

Chu Mohan's throat rolled, and he said in a dumb voice: "No, it's me who is not prepared, you allow me to prepare for a while."

Chu Wanxiang nodded: "Okay." Then I'll wait for you, just for you."
