” Should we go in?” Zhai Tianyu stretched his arm out, proffering it to Liu Hui Ying who took several steps back while looking at Zhai Tianyu with a suspicious look on her face. ” What? What do you want to do?”

” Aren’t we newly married?” Zhai Tianyu smiled at Liu Hui Ying, using his most charming smile that would make any woman fall for him. ” We should go hand in hand to see my grandmother, she will like seeing us getting along.”

” I would rather get along with a pig than you,” snapped Liu Hui Ying casting a disgusted glance at Zhai Tianyu, behind her she could hear Nanny Gang’s coughing and Qui Ai’s ‘Oh my’s’ but she did not look at them instead she raised her hands and made a move away gesture. ” Instead of getting along why don’t you walk on your lane and I will walk on mine? I believe in world peace you see? There is no need to start a world war by making a woman angry, so just let’s go separately.”

” World war? Lane? World peace? My queen... I only left you alone for a day and yet you have learned to speak rather weirdly.” Zhai Tianyu’s brows scrunched up a little as he looked at Liu Hui Ying before stretching his arm. ” I know that you are angry but there is no need to be stubborn like this, lets go–”

He did not get a chance to say anything as a hand covered in a handkerchief slapped his palm away making everyone gasp. Yu Lingyun who was standing behind Zhai Tianyu leaned in closer to Zhai Heng and said, ” You see that, she is all weird like that, is she okay? Do you think something happened to her? Are you sure that you gave her a poisoned wine and not a... personality-alternating wine?”

” If I had such a thing then I would have given it to you first,” Zhai Heng solemnly shot back as he slapped Yu Lingyun’s head away. ” And why don’t you use your spiritual energy to shout out to the world that we gave the queen poisoned wine, do you think that we don’t have enough trouble as it is? The Liu family is waiting like a prowling tiger to pounce on us and here you are making things difficult for us.”

“Sorry about that,” Yu Lingyun bowed his head and then turned to look at the sight in front of him before chuckling. ” But this is really entertaining don’t you think so? I believe that the days in the palace are going to become really interesting.”

He faltered when Zhai Heng glanced down at him and cleared his throat awkwardly. ” I mean–”

.....

” Say another word and I will have his majesty send you to the cold north, I heard the people there stay alive by living on stale fish and coarse pancakes.”

” Sorry, really sorry...” under Zhai Heng’s threats, Yu Lingyun could only shut his mouth.

” You slapped Zhen?” Zhai Tianyu who has never been slapped in his entire life was so shell-shocked that he looked at Liu Hui Ying in surprise. In fact, his shock was so great that he even forgot to get angry at Liu Hui Ying. “You actually slapped Zhen?”

“Why you tried to touch me without my permission, what did you think I was going to do?” Liu Hui Ying shot back, a heart attack she almost got a heart attack. If this man had touched her right now, her allergy would have flared up pretty badly.

” I am your husband, do I need to have your permission to touch your hand?” Zhai Tianyu echoed in shock and surprise, this was the first time someone has said something like this to him.

” Did you know me before marriage?” asked Liu Hui Ying with a raise of her chin causing Zhai Tianyu to frown as he shook his head, seeing that he was shaking his head Liu Hui Ying slapped her hands together and pointed at him and said, ” You see, we didn’t even know each other before getting married, that means we are basically strangers and strangers are not supposed to get close to each other, strangers don’t touch each other and they definitely not talk with each other.” She frowned and then looked at him with an inquisitive look. ” No one taught you that you should not be talking to strangers? Gosh, you can be kidnapped, pay attention to your surroundings and stay away from strangers, in fact, it would be better if you don’t talk to strangers at all.”

Then after dumping this ‘useful’ information on the naive emperor who did not even know that he should not be talking to strangers she walked towards the palace’s courtyard leaving Zhai Tianyu behind.

” Forgive us, your majesty!” Nanny Gang wanted to say something more to Zhai Tianyu but she couldn’t think of what she should say, in the end, she could only bow to Zhai Tianyu and run after Liu Hui Ying, following her was Qui Ai who deliberately ignored Yu Lingyun waving at her and chased after Liu Hui Ying.

” Goodness women are so hard to understand,” muttered Yu Lingyun as he looked at Qui Ai’s vanishing back and then turned to look at Zhai Tianyu who was staring into the space with a shocked look on his face and tapped him on his shoulder.” Your majesty, are you okay?”

Zhai Tianyu snapped out of his daze and then turned to look at his elder brother and best friend before opening his mouth with a rather torn expression on his face. “Zhen ....why do I think that the queen just made a fool out of me?”

” You are probably overthinking, your majesty,” said Zhai Heng with an ever-calm expression. ” I believe that the Queen is just angry and making you confused, don’t let her stray you... all right?”

Zhai Tianyu nodded as he pursed his lips and took a step forward but then suddenly stopped causing his procession to stop all of a sudden and knock into each other. ” But what does kidnapped means?

” Maybe a kid taking nap?” suggested Yu Lingyun wisely.

” Why will a kid nap if I talk to strangers?”
