"It's also important for a husband to be handsome."

Wang Xiaqin blushed and turned away shyly.

Fang Jinxiu twitched the corner of her mouth, trying her best to hold back from speaking any further.

The colder she is now, the less heartbroken Xiaqin will be when she learns of his death, probably.

"Sir, Miss, the carriage for entering the palace is ready."

Fang Jinshu hurriedly nodded and went out first, breaking her usual habit of waiting for Wang Xiaqin. The servants were taken aback and turned to look at their mistress.

Wang Xiaqin was also surprised. Her husband's behavior today was quite unusual, but it didn't matter.

As soon as she thought about what she had to do today, after they became a real couple, she felt relieved.

Yes, doing this will definitely solve all the problems between her and her husband.

After comforting herself, Wang Xiaqin kept up with Fang Jinshi's pace. After getting on the car, Fang Jinshi saw that her expression was normal, even smiling at him, and couldn't help but sigh.

She still thought she had purposely waited for Xiaolin just now, and Xiaolin would be very angry.

"My husband, why are you rubbing your forehead Are you feeling unwell somewhere Perhaps I should call someone to fetch a doctor for you"

Fang Jinshu hurriedly stopped her.

"I am the doctor myself."

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, just sit down."

She now spoke with a hint of impatience, much like a scumbag. Fang Jinshu kept her attention on secretly observing Xiaoqin's expression.

She's not even angry

Even the look of disappointment was gone When did Xiaqin's temper become so good

"Husband, if you want to look at me, just do it openly. We're husband and wife, what are you doing sneaking around like that"

Fang Jinxiu was secretly observing and got caught, coughing incessantly after being splashed with saliva. Xiaoqin rushed forward with a concerned face and patted his back.

"Husband, why are you so restless today Is there something you want to tell me"

Fang Jinshu hurriedly shook her head, finally stopped coughing and reached out to push Wang Xiaqin away.

"I'm fine, you're overthinking it."

After entering the palace, speak less and don't cause me trouble.

Wang Xiaqin lowered her eyes and hummed softly, her expression unreadable.

Fang Jinxiu closed her eyes and pretended to be engrossed in meditation, completely playing the role of indifference.

Wang Xiaqin wasn't indifferent, nor was she unhurt. The more Fang Jinshi treated her with coldness, the more she felt the urgency of this marriage consummation.

All the older sisters say that once a man has children, he changes. And the relationship between husband and wife becomes even stronger.

Yes, she always felt her marriage to Fang Yu was like a cloud in the sky. Although he treated her well and was excellent himself, everyone praised her husband for having good vision.

Only she herself knows, her heart has never been truly settled.

The carriage soon entered the palace, and the royal banquet was indeed lavish. Even the path leading to where guests were directed had accompanying music.

Having disembarked from the carriage, Jinxiu walked with exaggerated speed. At first, Xiaqin tried to keep up, but she gradually realized that she couldn't match his pace. Dressed in a heavy gown, her steps were limited.

In a short while, Fang Jinshu was gone without a trace. She bit her lip, holding back tears. The maid beside her whispered softly, comforting her mistress and voicing her indignation.

"Miss, why is your master behaving this way towards you today"

"Did the two of you have an argument"

Wang Xiaqin shook her head. This was in the palace, and it wasn't appropriate to make too much noise. No matter what the problem was, they should wait until they returned home to discuss it.

“I'm fine, my husband didn't mean to. He had something urgent to attend to first.”

The maidservant rolled her eyes. Who didn't know this was an excuse the young mistress had made up for her husband

"Let me help you inside."

Having gotten rid of Wang Xiaqin, Fang Jinshu went straight into the palace where the birthday banquet was being held. She was about to meet Princess Ruqing, and while she felt a little nervous, she was mostly excited.

She was truly curious about what kind of woman the birth mother of Zongyu was, a woman who dared to curse the emperor right to his face in Xixia.

"Your Majesty, Lord Fang has arrived."

Fang Jinxiu entered the hall and saw the emperor. She hurried over to pay her respects.

It's strange, isn't it Usually at these banquets, the Emperor and the Longevity Star arrive last, don't they

Looking at the scene inside the hall, it seems that many distinguished guests have yet to arrive.

"Your Majesty."

Fang Jinxiu was half-squatting, about to kneel, when the King of Xixia had already called him up.

"No need for that, please don't kneel."

Come, sit by my side.

The Xi Xia King's complexion was ruddy today, and his spirits were as usual. Under Fang Jinshu's careful care, even his hair had darkened considerably.

She's just making things up when she says the price of this fountain of youth is extreme.

After he treated Wang the Elder's illness, he lay in bed for a month. After being treated by the Emperor in the palace, he lay in bed for another month.

Anyway, for her, it was just a show for outsiders. This youth restoration sounded too magical, the hype was a bit too big. If others knew she could do it so easily, she wouldn't have to do anything else in Xixia's capital. She could just sit at the Wang family and wait for nobles to come to her for treatment every day.

But she was able to escape the task of treating the noble families and restoring their youth all thanks to Wang Xiaqin. Seeing him lying in bed "extremely weak" for those two months, the girl felt terribly sorry for him.

I heard from the servants in the mansion that all the people who came to find him afterward were persuaded by the Wang family.

Of course, the whole Wang family listened to Wang Jiawang's granddaughter, Wang Xiaoqin. She was his darling.

But he guessed that Master Wang would be very willing to let him deal with the aristocrats. Due to his granddaughter's recent crying, he was also very troubled and could only reluctantly help refuse those people.

"Your Majesty, your spirit and vigor look just like that of the young men in the palace. It seems Your Majesty's illness has fully recovered, truly a cause for celebration."

At this moment, an official came to flatter the King of Xixia. But the king didn't even glance at him, his eyes fixed solely on Fang Yu's face. He impatiently waved his hand at the speaking official, dismissing him.

The official left with a pale face, even glaring at Fang Yu fiercely as he turned away.

Fan Jinshi endured the feeling of revulsion in her heart, treating the old emperor's disgusting gaze as if it didn't exist. Since he wouldn't let her kneel, she would simply pay her respects with a respectful bow.

"Lord Fang, I asked you to sit beside me, where did you go"

Fang Jinshu's lips twitched. The moment the emperor finished speaking, she distinctly felt several more hostile gazes focused on her.

"Your Majesty, your surroundings are of utmost importance. My lowly status would be unsuitable to sit beside you."

At this time, the Xixia king brought the demeanor of a tyrannical ruler to its peak. He leaned back arrogantly, letting out a cold sneer.

His eyes swept over the crowd in the hall.

"I said you could sit if you wanted, who finds it unsuitable"

"Stand up and speak."

Everyone in the hall immediately followed suit, saying, "Of course, Your Majesty's word is final. We have no objections."

"Yep, yep, perfect."

"Lord Fang is a rare young talent, the mainstay of the imperial court. There's no problem with Lord Fang sitting in this position at all."

These sycophants are quick to change their tune.

But these reactions from the officials also served as a warning bell for Fang Jinshu. Since waking up, the King of Xixia had been acting rather recklessly, appearing quite different from the tyrannical overlord he was rumored to be.

She thought the rumors were exaggerated, but now it seems they weren't.

The King of Xixia has been deliberately putting on a show for her.

Why What discrepancy in her identity aroused his suspicionlly.""Unless it's a matter of life and death, go ahead and do whatever you want."Hearing this, Fang Jinshu's heart felt like she had drunk a big bowl of honey-sweetened ice water on a scorching summer...
