Chapter 639: Li State Affairs
Fu Ling looked at Xuanyuan Gen and asked him to express his opinion.
"Ling'er is absolutely right. Senior, please don't be so distant." Although his expression was unnatural, he was no longer tense.
As he was speaking, Lu Beichen appeared in the study.
Hong Gu was still not used to such big scenes and was startled by the sudden appearance of the person.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Xuanyuan Gen finally felt relieved when he saw Lu Beichen return safely.
He walked up to him, patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Good boy, you are finally back!"
"I'm sorry to have worried Brother Gen. The matter of Li Country is over. Those weirdos won't appear again."
Xuanyuan Gen's eyes slowly lit up, a look of joy on his face, and he said three good words in a row: "Good, good, good! Big killer weapons are meant to harm people, so it's great to have them gone. Beichen, you've done a great deed this time."
"I'm just doing my part. By the way, Brother Wen, I've raised the betrothal gifts, and it's time to propose. His Majesty once promised me something, so I'll be grateful for your help."
"Good boy, that's quick enough. Okay, tomorrow is Father's birthday. I'll find time to mention this to Father."
"Good work."
"That's too formal. You and I are brothers." Xuanyuan Gen swept away the initial gloom and smiled sincerely at this moment.
"It's getting late. I'll have someone arrange for you to stay."
"I'm going back to the palace first. I have something important to do tomorrow. Senior Medicine Saint, I'll go ahead."
It was already late at night when Fu Ling returned to the palace.
Not long after she lay down, she felt herself in a warm embrace and she subconsciously moved closer.
Lu Beichen raised the corner of his mouth and gently kissed her forehead: "Go to sleep, my wife."
When he woke up the next day, Lu Beichen was no longer around.
Fu Ling touched his side and found that there was no warmth. It seemed that he had left very early.
She got up, washed, changed her clothes and put on makeup. She did not have breakfast in Fengling Palace. Instead, she came to Fengci Palace early in the morning. She had promised Bu Hanci a few days ago that she would come and have breakfast with her.
When Fu Ling arrived at Fengci Palace, breakfast had just been delivered.
"Ling'er, you're here just in time. Come and sit down."
What surprised Fu Ling was that Xuanyuan Hong was also here today.
"Meet the Emperor, Father, and the Empress."
"I wish my father a long and prosperous life."
"I wish my mother good health and a smile on her face forever."
"Okay, okay, mother, just seeing Ling'er will make you so happy."
"Get up and look at this table full of food. Your mother asked the imperial kitchen to prepare it for you early in the morning." Xuanyuan Hong's attitude was obviously much better than when they first met.
Fu Ling laughed a lot. It seemed that the beauty pills he presented to the emperor also won the emperor's favor.
Look at the way he looks at his mother, it's almost tearful.
Fu Ling was hit...
She sat down silently, acting like a large power station. She originally thought that she might be full without eating, but facing a table full of delicious food, she still had a strong appetite.
He was eating with such joy that Bu Hanci's face was full of doting.
"Your Majesty, what do you think of Mr. Lu's character?" Bu Hanci suddenly asked.
Xuanyuan Hong was slightly stunned, then thought for a moment and said, "This man seems quite capable, and his medical skills are quite impressive. I see that the Queen is getting healthier these days."
"This is all thanks to Master Lu's medicine. He looks much lighter. He's so young yet has such amazing medical skills. He's worthy of being the disciple of the Medicine Saint."
These words startled Xuanyuan Hong. He thought of the Queen's childhood sweetheart, who was also a disciple of the Medicine Saint.
For fear of being discovered to be abnormal, Xuanyuan Hong quickly recovered as before.
He couldn't have any complaints against that person. After all, Bu Hanci and he were childhood sweethearts. He had stolen her away, and now that she was dead, there was no need for him to be so petty.
"The Queen is absolutely right. I once promised him something. Now that he has proposed it, as long as it is not against the will of heaven and earth, I will do my best to facilitate it."
Bu Hanci was delighted when he heard this. There was such a thing? Then there was no need for him to waste his breath. It would appear more sincere if Lu Beichen brought it up himself.
"The Queen suddenly mentioned him. Is there something you want to tell me?"
"No, I'm just not very grateful to Master Lu. Well, Your Majesty, please have your meal quickly. The ministers are still waiting to pay their respects and congratulate you on your birthday."
"it is good."
The two of them added food to each other's plate from time to time, and the scene was very warm.
Fu Ling felt that she was redundant. This couple was so affectionate with each other. If she had known this, she would not have come. Fortunately, the breakfast was good, otherwise she would have regretted it.
After breakfast, Xuanyuan Hong left. Bu Hanci took Fu Ling's hand and sat down aside. "Ling'er, did you hear what your father just said?"
"What is the matter that the Queen Mother is referring to?"
"He promised Master Lu one thing. As long as he personally proposes to His Majesty, the deal will be done." Bu Hanci was sincerely happy for Fu Ling. To see their children get married in their lifetime is the happiest thing for parents.
"Mother, you're talking about this. Lu Beichen has discussed this matter with me before. He does have this plan."
"Why didn't you tell your mother earlier, kid?"
"Uh, I just remembered this matter. I really didn't mean to hide it." Fu Ling explained.
Bu Hanci patted her hand gently and said, "Ling'er, no matter who you marry, as long as the other person treats you wholeheartedly, mother will be satisfied. Even if you can't come back to see mother often in the future, mother will not blame you."
"What are you talking about? I promised you, mother, that I would come back to see you every year. Maybe I can't do it every Chinese New Year, but I will let you see me every day." Fu Ling was a little touched. Although their contact was not long, she deeply felt the other party's love for her.
Faced with such a mother, she couldn't turn a blind eye. Even if she returned to China, she would never forget everything here.
"I'm very pleased to hear your words. As long as you're safe and sound, that's all that matters. My child, no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you must tell me. Don't hold it in, okay? You can also tell me if you've been wronged. If Young Master Lu bullies you, even if he's my benefactor, I'll still stand by you."
Fu Ling was very moved after hearing this. Seeing Bu Hanci's heartfelt smile, he said, "I'll remember this. Don't worry, Mother. He won't bully me. Even if he does, I can still bully him back. Have you forgotten that I'm also very powerful? I can beat ten of them alone."
As he said this, he made a fierce expression, which made Bu Hanci laugh out loud.
"Yes, yes, our Ling'er is the most powerful. Remember, if you get married, don't think you are a princess and act arrogantly. If you do, even if he loves you, it will slowly wear away. Only mutual respect and understanding can last. Ling'er, you must remember this."
"Mother, I haven't gotten married yet. Please remember to remind me again on the day of my wedding. I'm afraid I can't remember it." Fu Ling said mischievously.
Bu Hanci doted on the tip of her nose and said, "You, you."
