In fact, this was not the answer that Shui Xuan ‘er had wanted to hear.
But when Shui Xuan ‘er raised her head and saw the look on Shangguan Shaoheng’s face, she pursed her lips and did not ask. She thought that she should also be the kind of person who was easily satisfied, and she would not ask Shangguan Shaoheng to do anything harsh.
She just wanted the people around her to be happy.
Shui Xuan ‘er was also a little tired from sitting in the carriage all the way. It was bumpy, and she felt dizzy a few times.
Along the way, it was also Shangguan Shaoheng who took care of her. He patted her back, poured her water, and prepared snacks for her.
The carriage was prepared by the Shangguan family, and the mechanism inside was very unique. It could hold a teapot, tea, and some snacks.
These were all prepared by Shangguan Shaoheng for Shui Xuan ‘er.
Shui Xuan ‘er was actually very touched as well. Because Shangguan Shaoheng was beside her along the way, her motion sickness was not as bad as before.
However, they encountered two assassination attempts on their way here, both of which were resolved by Shangguan Shaoheng.
It was only then that Shui Xuan ‘er realized Shangguan Shaoheng’s ability. He was indeed the heir to the Shangguan family, and he was really strong.
Shui Xuan ‘er’s heart was filled with admiration.
She admired Shangguan Shaoheng from the bottom of her heart.
Along the way, she could not help but feel relaxed. Because of Shangguan Shaoheng, she instinctively felt a sense of security.
Shui Xuan ‘er first returned to the royal residence, then entered the palace. Because Shui Xuan’ er’s story was the same as Shangguan Shaoheng ‘s, the Empress allowed her to return.
In fact, Shui Xuan ‘er knew in her heart that even if this was the case, the Empress wouldn’t feel at ease with her. She guessed that the assassins on the way were arranged by the Empress.
However, she couldn’t say anything without any evidence.
And from Shangguan Shaoheng’s expression, she could tell that he knew the Empress, right?
She did not know who was more important in his heart.
She wondered if he was aware of the Empress’s feelings for the Shangguan family.
That night, Shui Xuan ‘er and Shangguan Shaoheng had dinner together. During the meal, Shangguan Shaoheng was a little quiet.
Shui Xuan ‘er couldn’t help but ask,”Shaoheng, you … Did you know her Majesty before?”
Shui Xuan ‘er felt that the way the Empress looked at Shangguan Shaoheng was not right.
That predatory gaze made her uncomfortable.
Shangguan Shaoheng gave Shui Xuan ‘er some food and said,””We knew each other in the past, but we stopped contacting each other after she entered the palace. At that time, we didn’t know that she was the Empress. Hurry and eat. You haven’t eaten much all day, so you must be hungry.”
Shui Xuan ‘er nodded her head and began to eat. Even when she was eating, she was a little absent-minded.
After the meal, Shangguan Shaoheng sent Shui Xuan ‘er back to her own courtyard.
When they were about to reach her own courtyard, Shui Xuan ‘er suddenly turned around and hugged Shangguan Shaoheng.”Shaoheng, I’ll go to the Shangguan family to propose marriage, and you’ll be my Royal husband, okay?”
Shui Xuan ‘er had also mustered up the courage to say this.
Shangguan Shaoheng’s body stiffened. He was stunned by Shui Xuan ‘er’s words.
Shangguan Shaoheng did not speak for a long time.
Shui Xuan ‘er nervously raised her head to look at Shangguan Shaoheng’s expression.”Shaoheng, you … You’re not willing?”
When she said this, Shui Xuan ‘er started to feel nervous.
His voice trembled slightly.
Shangguan Shaoheng’s heart skipped a beat. He said,””No, I just feel that it’s a little sudden. I haven’t digested this news yet.”
“I’m serious!”Shui Xuan ‘er said.
