Chapter 673 Princess's Reward

……

When Xia Fan woke up, he found himself lying on a soft bed, with a red ribbon on his head, which spread from the top of the bed beam to the ground.

The quilt exuded the fragrance of gardenias and was just the right amount of fluffy. It was obvious that someone often took care of this bed to keep it in the most comfortable state.

There were only a handful of people in Jinxia who could own such a luxurious bed.

He instantly realized where he was now.

"Are you awake?" someone suddenly asked.

Xia Fan turned around and found that Ning Wanjun was actually sitting next to him - yes, this big bed could accommodate two people. The other party was not sitting on a chair, but leaning against the head of the bed, only an arm's length away from him.

She was neither wearing a princess dress nor a casual dress, but a simple white gauze dress, which felt a bit like a nightgown. This kind of sloppy dress obviously only appears when facing the closest people.

Xia Fan also noticed that his coat and lining were also taken off and replaced with a clean short coat. Considering that the princess didn't want a person who had been squeezed on the ship for more than half a month to climb onto her bed, this was understandable.

"Are you okay?" He sat up directly, grabbed Ning Wanjun's shoulder and looked at her carefully.

The latter was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of redness appeared on her face unnaturally.

"You're too close!"

Ning Wanjun held his hand back and pushed it away.

Xia Fan took a breath of cold air, and the other party's strength was still so strong.

"It seems that you have indeed recovered almost."

"Yes, this is your credit." Ning Wanjun raised her chin slightly, "... Thank you."

She wanted to follow the practice of sleeping with feet touching each other to show trust and closeness, but when she thought that it was embarrassing to put her feet together, she changed to leaning on the same side.

But she didn't expect the other party to wake up like this. Most people would be at a loss or respectful when they saw the princess getting close to them now, so he dared to bully her and scared her instead.

However, Ning Wanjun was used to Xia Fan's unreasonable ideas.

"I didn't expect that after waking up three months later, Jinxia would still be the same as before, and nothing would change much." She looked at Xia Fan and said, "Do you really have no interest in the throne?"

She entrusted Jinxia to him before she was seriously injured, and she had actually considered this possibility.

Even if Xia Fan didn't risk going to Xiji, no one could blame him.

With her own instructions, it would be no difficulty for him to take charge of all the power in Shenzhou.

For Ning Wanjun, as long as he continued to clear out the royal family, she could also achieve her wish.

However, this guy didn't even want the opportunity that was delivered to her.

It was hard for her to imagine that there was such a person in the world who could treat the throne above thousands of people as nothing.

"It's better for you to take on such a troublesome matter." Xia Fan smiled, "I said, as long as I can practice my ideas, other things are not so important."

"But you saved me after all. You should be rewarded for your merits."

"Then what does Your Highness want to reward me?" Xia Fan raised a hint of laughter.

It can be seen that he doesn't care much about what the reward is.

Ning Wanjun fell into silence.

The five years of experience have confirmed one thing for her.

After spending a long time with the person in front of her, some things have gradually changed. If before coming to Jinxia, ​​the only thing she thought about was revenge, and she never thought about what happened afterwards, it is different now.

She began to think about what kind of life she would live after her mother's revenge, and added a little expectation to this imagination.

Ning Wanjun never wanted to deceive herself.

She really liked him.

This kind of liking has exceeded the boundaries of monarch and minister.

But now is not the time to talk about that kind of thing. Before getting rid of Ning Weiyuan and his mother and firmly controlling the entire territory of Qi State, it is not suitable for her to consider her life in advance.

No one can tell when the enemy's counterattack will be launched, and she may die at any time-just like when she fought against the big demon by the Jiujiang River.

Fortunately, she has a unique advantage.

That is, she is a princess and may become the monarch of Qi State in the future.

"I'll give you half of the world." After a moment, Ning Wanjun slowly spoke.

"Can the world be divided?" Xia Fan raised his eyebrows.

"After I become the king of a country, I will naturally have the final say." She replied in an unquestionable tone. Of course, the world cannot be divided. As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, unless they are all family members.

Even if he doesn't understand it now, he will definitely understand it in the future.

"By the way," Ning Wanjun changed the topic without waiting for the other party to ask more, "Are you still unmarried?"

"Ahem..." Xia Fan almost choked on his saliva, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Nothing," she smiled lightly, "You'd better hurry up."

This is another advantage of the monarch.

No matter how many wives and concubines he marries, it will not hinder her status.

"To be honest... Your Highness is a little strange today." Xia Fan pouted.

"Call my name when no one is around." Ning Wanjun moved her body and leaned gently against him. "Tell me about your trip to Xiji. Although I have heard Qianyan and the others talk about it in general, I still know very little about the details. Why did Princess Muye want to come to Jinxia? What's going on with Denglong Tower? I want to know the details."

Just now she felt that she was too close, but now she took the initiative to move closer. I really don’t know what she was thinking. Xia Fan sighed silently in his heart, "This may take a long time."

"It doesn't matter, we have one night, right? You can rest in the palace today." Ning Wanjun smiled.

...

Early in the morning, Qiuyue saw Xia Fan walking out of the palace and bowed her head respectfully, "Hello, Lord Xia, would you like breakfast?"

The latter couldn't help but be stunned and looked at the other party suspiciously.

Is this really Qiuyue? Why does it feel like a different person?

Not only that, even the eyes cast by the surrounding guards have become different.

If it was just respect before, then now there is a hint of closeness and envy in their eyes.

"Just arrange something for the morning." Ning Wanjun's voice came from behind - after listening to stories all night, she was not only not tired at all, but looked radiant, and there was a hint of softness between her eyebrows. Even after changing into the princess's long robe that dragged on the ground, she no longer looked out of place as before. "We have to go to the office to attend a meeting later, so we won't spend too much time."

"Yes." Qiuyue replied brightly.

At this moment, a guard ran over and presented the letter in his hand to the two of them, "Your Highness, Lord Xia, this is an urgent letter received this morning, sent from the west of Jinzhou. The sender is unknown, but it is specified to be sent to the person in charge of the office."

The person in charge is basically Xia Fan and Mo Yun.

Xia Fan took the letter and opened it, and lines of beautiful words suddenly appeared in front of him.

He had an impression of this handwriting.

After losing most of his eyesight, the other party took a long time to barely restore his notes to the level of the past.

But even so, it still looks pleasing to the eye.

The writer of the letter was Luo Qingqing.

This chapter is a bit difficult to write, and it took me a long time, so it's just one chapter. I wish you all a happy National Day and have fun during the long vacation!
