Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 372: Crown Prince

Seeing Lu Rui coming over here, Bai Xuan excitedly pulled Gu Qingyuan's arm and reminded: "Sister-in-law, look, our brother is here to see us."

"I saw it." Gu Qingyuan said helplessly.

Lu Rui stopped one step away from the two of them.

"My wife, Xiaoxuan."

Only in front of Gu Qingyuan can he return to his previous state.

Gu Qingyuan handed him a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, poured him a glass of water and said, "You've worked hard today, but you did a good job."

Lu Rui drank the water that Gu Qingyuan handed him, and said a little embarrassedly: "I feel that I am still far from it. When I was shooting arrows today, I always felt that my hands were shaking."

"It's okay, just take your time. I'm rooting for you."

Lu Rui nodded vigorously and said, "I won't let my wife down."

Bai Xuan, who was completely ignored, jumped up and said, "And me, and me too. I've been cheering my brother up all day too."

Lu Rui asked doubtfully, "Aren't you sleeping?"

Although he had been training on the horse farm, when he occasionally looked at Gu Qingyuan, he could see Bai Xuan sleeping on her legs.

Bai Xuan touched her nose, then put her hands behind her back and shook her toes.

"Well, I was cheering for my brother in my dream."

Gu Qingyuan said at this time: "Since we have finished practicing today, let's go back."

Bai Xuan was jumping and skipping in front, while Gu Qingyuan and Lu Rui were walking side by side behind.

The setting sun stretched their shadows infinitely. Lu Rui tilted his head and asked Gu Qingyuan, "Wife, do you regret this?"

"What do you regret?" Gu Qingyuan didn't understand why he said this and asked him back in confusion.

Lu Rui hesitated for a moment before saying, "Come with me to this Holy Land."

He practiced various things with Bai Huang's people every day. He needed to practice reading and writing in the morning and martial arts in the afternoon.

And you also need to take time to learn etiquette.

This way, he didn't have much time to see her.

It was inevitable that she would feel uncomfortable staying in the palace alone.

Gu Qingyuan saw his worry and comforted him, "I don't regret it. Besides, I originally agreed to come with you. I'll go back when you get used to it."

In fact, she originally planned to go home after Lu Rui was officially crowned as the crown prince.

Seeing him like this, I decided to stay with him for a few more days.

Lu Rui couldn't help but hold her hand, his eyes full of reluctance.

"But I don't want to be separated from you."

Gu Qingyuan touched his head with her other hand and said, "This is your best home. Besides, you are of noble status now and have a family who loves you."

Lu Rui's eyes gradually became moist, and he shook his head desperately, "But I'm not happy."

If possible, he still hopes to live in the Gu family like before.

Gu Qingyuan said seriously: "Ari."

She seldom called him like that. Hearing her say that, Lu Rui couldn't help but quiet down and wait for her to continue.

"Originally, you were supposed to be the crown prince of this Holy Land Kingdom. It was because you were sent away by the Queen's people that you ended up as a slave in the Daning Kingdom. That's not your life. Now, you need to become strong and protect your family... and me."

After Lu Rui ascends the throne, he can promulgate some policies to interact with the Daning Kingdom and promote friendly exchanges between the two countries.

Lu Rui thought about it and decided that even if it was for her, he had to be a good prince.

"Okay, then I'll stay here for my wife."

Gu Qingyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will come here often to see you in the future."

After Bai Xuan walked for a distance, she saw that the two people were still walking slowly, so she couldn't help but walk back and squeeze in between the two people.

Then she took one of their hands each and walked forward faster.

"Brother and sister-in-law, please leave quickly. I'm starving."

Gu Qingyuan and Lu Rui looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and went back with Bai Xuan.

On the other side, Concubine Li continued to come over with the soup she stewed for Lu Rui.

She specifically instructed the palace servants to add some hot water to the soup residue and leave it for Bai Huang, and she brought the rest to Lu Rui.

At the dinner table, Concubine Li looked at Lu Rui expectantly and said, "Good boy, come and try the red date, angelica and black chicken soup that your mother cooked today."

Lu Rui looked at the pitch-black chicken in the soup, and in order not to disappoint his mother's kindness, he gritted his teeth and drank a few sips.

Bai Xuan saw her brother's dilemma and said to Concubine Li in a coquettish manner, "Queen Mother, why do you only let my brother drink? I want to try it too."

As she spoke, she picked up her bowl, filled it with soup, and took away half a black-bone chicken.

Lu Rui looked at Bai Xuan with some gratitude at this time. He could definitely drink the remaining half.

After dinner, Lu Rui was a little reluctant.

He didn't want to go back now, he just wanted to stay with Gu Qingyuan.

After dinner, Bai Xuan returned to her room.

night.

Gu Qingyuan felt a warm body pressed against her.

"Ari?" She vaguely saw who it was.

"it's me."

He was originally quite strong, and after training for a period of time, the effect was even more obvious.

He covered Gu Qingyuan's lips regardless of anything, as if he wanted to vent all his reluctance and love for her.

Their hair was scattered together, and Gu Qingyuan and he intertwined their fingers.

for a long time.

"Go to bed early, you still have to continue training tomorrow." Gu Qingyuan let go of him and said.

Only then did Lu Rui separate from her, and then returned to his palace under the cover of night.

In the following days, Lu Rui trained even harder.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day to enthrone the prince.

On this day, everyone got up early to prepare for the ceremony.

Lu Rui was dressed in a black robe with golden cloud patterns on the hem, a white satin tied around his waist, a golden crown on his head, and a face as beautiful as jade.

The court officials had already received the news and rushed to the palace.

The White Emperor sat on the throne, looking majestically at the people below.

The court officials began to salute the White Emperor, and the scene was very solemn.

Then, solemn music sounded, and Lu Rui, wearing a golden crown, slowly stepped into the ceremony venue along with the guards and eunuchs.

Cold sweat broke out on Lu Rui's palms. He didn't know how many people were present, and now all their eyes were on him. If he was not careful, he would be vulnerable to others, so he had to be extremely alert.

He knew that Gu Qingyuan was also looking at him at this moment, and he couldn't help but hold his head high and chest out, showing the temperament of a prince.

The official in charge of reading the imperial edict held the edict and read out, "I have inherited the order of Heaven, continued the great foundation, and ruled the four seas, working diligently day and night... Today, the world is at peace. I appoint the crown prince, Prince Bai Rui. This is decreed."

After the reading, the White Emperor handed the book and the imperial seal to Lu Rui, who knelt down to receive them.

After getting the things, Lu Rui stood up, patted the dirt off his knees, and faced everyone.
