Chapter 157 No Thoughts of Becoming Queen
There were only two people left in the room.
Lin Xiangxiang's hand was held, and she planned to sit on the edge of the bed, but she had just sat down.
Xie Beiheng suddenly hugged her and rested his head on her shoulder.
The voice was excited, but hazy and hoarse, and obviously carried a strong sense of drunkenness.
"Xiangxiang, there's no danger anymore."
"Dayue is out of danger now, you can marry me without worry..."
???
Lin Xiangxiang hugged him back with one hand and gently stroked his back with the other, "What happened tonight?"
Is Dayue out of danger?
If there was no war because the Northern Rong were destroyed, it would have happened two months ago, and he wouldn't be saying this today.
However, she did not expect that what she said in Kunyu Mountains at that time would make Xie Beiheng care so much!
Hearing Lin Xiangxiang's words, Xie Beiheng jumped up from her shoulder again, his drunken eyes filled with obvious joy.
"Xiangxiang, Li Chenghe has appointed you as the Princess of Hengyang and granted you the Hengyang County as your fiefdom."
Lin Xiangxiang's eyes widened in surprise, "Princess Hengyang?"
The eldest princess? She got a promotion?
"Is it because of the food donation?"
Xie Beiheng smiled and nodded, "But... that's not the point. The point is, he gave you Hengyang County as a fiefdom."
manor?
Lin Xiangxiang realized later that she had a fiefdom?
Doesn't that mean that she will be the boss of Dayue from now on? The people there will be managed by her, and the taxes collected will also be hers?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiangxiang's eyes lit up. Oh my god, this time he really has both money and power!
"Are you so happy because I have a fiefdom?"
Although it is very cool to have a fiefdom, Xie Beiheng is not a person who is greedy for power and money, so he shouldn't be so happy, right?
Xie Beiheng became increasingly drunk and could no longer hold on. He lay down again, smiling and shaking his head.
"No, do you know where Hengyang County is?" After saying that, without waiting for Lin Xiangxiang to ask, he continued, "It's less than two hundred miles away from the capital."
"Not only does a fiefdom allow you to collect food and land, but you can also recruit soldiers on your own. What's more, the Zhenbei Marquisate commands 200,000 Zhenbei troops. He gave you a fiefdom so close to you..."
"Do you know that if the Xie family had the intention to seize the throne, this country would be overturned in an instant!"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiangxiang opened her mouth in shock, "Hengyang County is so close?"
"What's Li Chenghe thinking? Is he leaving his house completely to us? Isn't he afraid of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion..."
Although she had no intention of becoming the queen, Li Chenghe was too confident!
Xie Beiheng exhaled a breath of alcohol, "Yes... Today, he just wanted to express that he completely trusts the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion and believes that the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion has no intention of rebelling to seize the throne."
"Xiangxiang... My father and I are both patriotic and loyal, but during the reign of the late emperor, he was always suspicious of the Zhenbei Marquisate. His achievements threatened the emperor, and possessing a treasure was a crime. The Zhenbei Marquisate and the entire family were destroyed in a matter of moments. Therefore, my father and I were extremely cautious, fearing that we would make a mistake and end up in such a situation."
After saying that, he grasped Lin Xiangxiang's hand, his voice confident and firm, "But, don't be afraid now. Li Chenghe trusts the Xie family, and we control Hengyang County. From now on, no one in Dayue will be able to hurt you."
"Xiangxiang, Dayue is safe now. I will protect you. I won't let anyone hurt you again. Don't be afraid..."
"Xiangxiang... I really want to be with you. I want to eliminate all dangers and want you to marry me without any scruples. From now on, you can stay in Huaguo if you want to stay in Huaguo, and you can stay in Dayue if you want to stay in Dayue. Huaguo is your home, and Dayue is also your home..."
Xie Beiheng half closed his eyes and kept muttering to himself.
Lin Xiangxiang leaned forward slightly, her eyes full of tenderness, and stroked his face with one hand, "Xie Beiheng, from the moment I decided to marry you, Dayue has been my home."
"As long as you are here, no matter whether Dayue is in danger or not, it is my home, our home."
In reality, how could there not be danger? Even without war, they had no fear of imperial power, but conspiracies and intrigues were everywhere.
But she was no longer afraid. This was the era. She loved Xie Beiheng, and Xie Beiheng lived in this era. Here was his faith, and here was the country and people he wanted to protect. She supported his faith and was willing to fight alongside him!
"Xiangxiang, there's still half a month left. Please wait a little longer until I marry you..."
Lin Xiangxiang burst out laughing and rubbed his face. "I'm not anxious, you're the one who's anxious."
However, the answer she got was a long breath.
Lin Xiangxiang: ...
"No! I haven't had the hangover soup yet."
……
The next day.
Wait for Xie Beiheng to wake up.
There was no one around.
If he hadn't seen a box with obvious Chinese packaging next to the bed, he would have thought he was dreaming.
Xie Beiheng supported his heavy head and stood up, "Damn it!"
Yesterday, Xiangxiang waited for him for the whole day, but she ended up getting drunk. I wonder if she was angry?
Thinking of this, he became anxious and quickly reached out to pick up the box to see what was inside.
As a result, once opened...
"What is this?"
It is small, round, looks very delicate, and has a chain on it.
Xie Beiheng fumbled around in surprise for a while, then gently opened the lid...
In an instant, a clear and pleasant music sounded, and inside was a watch without a strap. What surprised him even more was that there was a photo of him and Xiangxiang on the inside of the lid.
There was a gleam in Xie Beiheng's eyes. In the photo, Xiangxiang was wearing a wedding dress and pressed tightly against him, smiling brightly and charmingly.
Xie Beiheng couldn't help but raise his lips. He wanted to go find Xiangxiang...
However, just as I was thinking this, my eyes moved downwards...
Half past twelve???
I can’t travel through time anymore!!!
How come I slept until this hour? Xie Beiheng frowned, feeling very annoyed.
At this time, Xu Chong opened the door and walked in quietly. Seeing Xie Beiheng sitting on the bed, he grinned immediately: "Sir, you are finally awake. I thought I heard it wrongly!"
Xie Beiheng immediately asked, "Did the girl say anything when she returned?"
Xu Chong said, "I told you that the young lady said she was very busy and had to go back first. She told my subordinates to wait for the prince to wake up and remember to give you some hangover soup, otherwise you will have a headache."
Xie Beiheng's eyes lit up. Xiangxiang was not angry, but cared about him.
Just as the corners of his mouth curled up, he saw Xu Chong grinning wickedly and said, "The girl also told you to go to China to help if you have nothing to do after you wake up. Whoever gets married will do the work. Don't even think about being lazy!"
!!!
Xie Beiheng felt aggrieved and glared at Xu Chong. He didn't want to be lazy, but he couldn't do it now.
How can this portal of travel be without time limit?
