Chapter 54: Scheming Beauty vs. Dark Minister 013
Everyone was excited.

I didn't expect that the usually silent and reserved guy actually has someone he likes.

Everyone showed respect to Chuli as sister-in-law, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

Xie Huai'an took her to the armory, which was in charge of all the best weapons in the dynasty.

One of the beautiful knife handles was specially customized by a killer blacksmith in the court. Now it has disappeared and the killer is long gone.

This knife has embroidered patterns on it.

I heard that this was used by a female general in the previous dynasty.

Xie Huai'an specially took out this knife and gave it to Chu Li.

To be honest, Hatsuri was scared of this thing.

But seeing that Xie Huai'an seemed very sincere, it was difficult to refuse him in person.

"Hatsuri, I know you like knife handles like this, so I picked one out for you to use for self-defense."

Chuli took it in surprise. When did she express her desire to like this thing?

Then she saw Xie Huai'an hugging her and teaching her how to use it step by step, with gentle and careful techniques.

But this knife is very sharp.

An idea suddenly occurred to Hatsuri.

Who would give a gift, just give a knife...

Hatsuri could only be forced to listen to him explain the identity of this knife and the story of that knife.

Like a real person, with his own thoughts.

Then, Hatsuri was really a little sleepy.

Yawning one after another, she sat casually on the ground with her head down, listening to Xie Huai'an's introduction word by word.

"Hatsuri, you and I are already engaged, when do you think it would be appropriate for us to get married?"

Only this sentence woke her up.

When she was sitting on the ground and looked over, she happened to see Xie Huai'an lowering his head. Chu Li's gaze, which had nowhere to hide, fell perfectly into Xie Huai'an's eyes.

Chu Li's eyes were filled with shyness, and she even hesitated when speaking: "Of course, I can, but I have to choose an auspicious day."

"Ah."

As if she thought of something, she suddenly stood up.

She looked at him seriously and said, "How are you going to explain to others that I am the daughter of a rebel and a criminal? If the emperor finds out, how are you going to get away? You are already in this position, and I don't want you to have any unnecessary misfortunes because of me."

Before deciding to marry her, Xie Huai'an had already secretly investigated and learned all this. When the Chu family was executed, their daughter was innocent and should not be implicated.

He has been reporting this matter to the emperor.

The emperor is the only one who knows that he is engaged.

He knew what worries Hatsuri had and what troubles they would face together, but he was willing to make changes for this: "Don't worry, these are not conditions that prevent me from loving you."

It was a blessing for Hatsuri to meet him.

But she still had concerns.

"If I lied to you, would you point the knife at me yourself?"

"No, I will believe whatever you say."

This is what Xie Huai'an said to himself at the beginning. It has never changed and its meaning remains the same.

Chu Li could never have imagined that in the days to come, Xie Huai'an's heart and people would be centered around her and would always stand on her side.

She felt a little sour, but also a little happy.

She didn't know when that day would come, but at this moment she was willing to join hands with Xie Huai'an.

"it is good."

"I am willing."

"Well, then let's go home and tell our mother about this?"

"it is good."

The next second, Xie Huai'an pulled her into his arms and said, "What will we do if we don't have children in the future?"

After saying this, he looked a little lonely.

Chuli knew what he was worried about, that he was worried that his body would not be able to have a child, but fortunately, she was a pregnant woman.

Came to this plane to have children.

Chu Li held his hand and said with a smile: "What if I am that one in ten thousand? What if we have a child? Things are unpredictable and you can never predict the future."

Xie Huai'an lowered his head and smiled.

The two walked out arm in arm. When they got home, they discussed the matter with Xie's mother several times.

Xie's mother cried with joy. She had always been worried about her son's marriage. She thought that now the two of them had been living together for a long time and had fallen in love with each other.

On the first day that Hatsuri arrived, when she saw the poor child, she fell in love with the girl.

Now she is married to her son.

They are such a perfect match!

She dragged Chuli to the seat of her deceased father Xie.

"God, if the Xie family still has spirits, please give me such a virtuous daughter-in-law. This is the blessing that my Xie family has cultivated for a hundred generations!"

night.

The cold is over and spring is coming soon.

The weather seems to be warming up a bit.

Hatsuri lay on the bed, feeling somewhat delighted.

She had already begun to fantasize about her married life and was about to blow out the candles.

Somehow, it seemed like someone sneaked in through the window curtain.

She became a little more alert.

I found myself suddenly falling into someone's arms and then being pulled onto the bed.

"Do not talk."

I felt a warm breath by my ear, and the hand on my shoulder was already removing my clothes.

The energetic young man broke into the girl's boudoir.

Chuli could smell the alcohol on him and he was clinging to her so tightly, so she asked, "Sir, have you been drinking?"

Xie Huai'an snuggled into her neck and uttered only one sentence: "Why don't you call me brother?"

This was the first time that Chuli saw him drinking in the few months she had been with him. The man looked hot and drunk.

The woman's face was also tinged with a blush under the night sky.

She said veiledly: "Brother Huai, why are you drinking?"

"Happy."

There was not even an inch of silk left inside the quilt.

A glimpse of spring.

Xie Huai'an couldn't hold back.

"Hatsuri."

A night of passion followed.

At dawn, Xie Huai'an had already put on his clothes and prepared to leave, waking up the person beside him as he left.

He kissed her cheek, his voice extremely hoarse and gentle: "Are you awake? You can sleep a little longer."

Hatsuri had just woken up, and a beam of light came through the window and shone on her delicate face. Because she had just woken up, her voice was a little soft: "My lord, are you leaving?"

"Well, it's time to go to court."

Then he covered her with the blanket again, and Hatsuri took his hand and smiled at him.

The man misunderstood the meaning.

I leaned over and came again in the morning.

When he really couldn't waste any more time, he let Chu Li go, leaving a sentence: "Since my lover is here, what's the harm in not attending the morning court?"

Chuli buried herself in the quilt, feeling extremely shy.

The Xie family is going to have a wedding, and the whole capital has started to spread the news like crazy, but no one has seen what the bride looks like.
Everyone is guessing and betting.

I bet the bride is a stunning beauty.

Some people also bet that maybe she was a person with a defect, so she was a good match for the son of Xie family.

Hatsuri goes out on the street for the first time.

Looking at the dazzling array of goods, she wanted to take some back to cook for Xie Huai'an.

When I saw the vegetable seeds again, I suddenly thought of the knife.

When she was about to go over to take a look, someone patted her from behind, which scared her.

"Hatsuri, when did you come to Kyoto?"

Here it comes, the next chapter will be a little later, it’s so cold today 555~
