Chapter 917: Seduced Him At A Certain Time
Lu Liangwei’s heavy heart was suddenly tickled at those words.
She burst out laughing as she reached out to hug her father’s arm. “Alright. If His Majesty mistreats me, I’ll go back to my natal home and get Father to stand up for me.”
Ling Lihua looked in slight exasperation at the pair of father-daughter plotting such plans. She could not help but glare at Lu Hetian. “His Majesty has only lost a portion of his memories and didn’t do anything to Weiwei. How can a father like you instigate your daughter this way?”
Lu Hetian tousled his daughter’s hair and replied indignantly. “I was just worried about Weiwei getting upset over him, wasn’t I?”
“Alright, I know you love Weiwei, but the most important thing right now is to leave the Palace immediately. I need to contact the House of Swallow Snow and send my letter to Southern Xinjiang,” Ling Lihua said in a huff.
Lu Hetian finally let go of Weiwei.
Lu Liangwei turned to hug Ling Lihua. “I can only rely on you for helping His Majesty, Mother.”
“What silly words are you saying? That’s my son-in-law in there and I would want to wish him well. Don’t worry, we’ll have news soon.” Ling Lihua tousled her hair.
“Alright, hurry up and go back inside. We need to leave the Palace soon.”
Lu Liangwei nodded. She returned to Grand Phoenix Palace only after her parents had departed.
She had just stepped in through the door when she saw Long Yang standing there.
Lu Liangwei was taken aback but went up to him. “Are you waiting for me?
Long Yang looked unhappy. “Weren’t you just sending people off? Why did you take your time with it and took so long to come back?”
Lu Liangwei’s pretty eyes blinked several times and she reached out to hug his arm. “If I knew Your Majesty would be waiting for me, I would have returned sooner.”
Long Yang stared at her long, thick eyelashes. When they flickered, they looked like butterflies flapping their wings and the sight of it tickled his heart. He felt something that he was unable to explain exactly.
It was a strangely wonderful feeling that he found difficult to ignore.
His dark, mysterious eyes quietly looked her over for some time.
Even though he still found it difficult to accept that he had married a girl so much younger to be his Empress, he had to admit that she was extremely beautiful.
She wore only a jade hair stick on her long, thick hair. Her face was petite and exquisite, her skin was soft and fair, tender and youthful. Her eyebrows were an untainted dark color while her beautiful eyes shone brightly. Her nose was pretty and delicate, and her lips were a natural cherry red.
His gaze lingered on her full lips intently before he forced himself to turn his gaze away.
He had tasted them once before, and they were more intoxicating than the best wine he had.
He could not help but gulp at the sight of her.
He finally came to a conclusion.
Other than the fact that she had cured him of Frostbite, this girl must have seduced him at a certain time, which explained why he had done something as ridiculous as to marry this girl into the Palace.
If not for Zhao Qian and the others guaranteeing over and over that he was the one who had legitimately married her, he would never have believed that he would be despicable enough to have his way with such a young girl.
He pinched himself between the eyes and even now, still found this entire situation to be incredulous.
Compared to being infected by the parasitic venom, the fact that he now had an Empress was something that was even more shocking and difficult for him to accept.
“Your Majesty?”
Lu Liangwei’s soft voice calling out jolted him out of his reverie. He pulled his arm away from her hug and his fingers reached out to tap her on the shoulder. He said grimly, “Why are you hugging and acting in such an intimate way? Where’s your decency? As an Empress, you should be acting dignified and reserved.”
Lu Liangwei rolled her eyes and curtsied at him. “Your Majesty is right to lecture me. If there’s nothing else, Your Loyal Wife shall take leave.”
