The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue could not refuse such an exchange of rewards.

She can temporarily forget about the other party's decision to make decisions for her without authorization. That is the imperial doctor selected from the Taiyuan Hospital with superb medical skills in the entire Jin Dynasty!

Being able to study with them, even for a short period of time, was enough for her to benefit a lot.

Xue Mingyue really couldn't say anything dissatisfied. If she hadn't thought about Xie Lang having to deal with it, her heart would have gone to the imperial doctor. She raised her head and gave her answer to Xie Lang:

"I'm very satisfied, thank you Lord Marquis."

The tone was unprecedentedly sincere.

A satisfied smile appeared on Xie Lang's lips, and he resisted the urge to pinch her face. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Then it's my turn to say my request? You can't go back on your word."

Although Xue Mingyue felt a little regretful that she could not make requests to him, she did not feel that she could not cope with his requests.

If the request is too excessive, she can refuse it.

"will not."

Xue Mingyue looked at him: "Master Hou, just say so."

A narrow smile flashed across Xie Lang's eyes, he rolled his eyes and said, "My request is very simple. I want you not to call me Marquis in the future, whether in front of outsiders or when we are alone."

"...?"

"I want you to call me husband."

Xue Mingyue's eyes widened in surprise, and she subconsciously wanted to refuse. This title was too intimate.

Before the words could be spoken, Xie Lang's index finger first touched her lips.

"I haven't heard you call me that for a long time. If you don't want to call me, you can just call me Jinglan. This is my request. It's neither embarrassing nor excessive, right?"

The touch of the slightly cool fingertips against your lips is really noticeable.

Xue Mingyue's back suddenly straightened, and a dense itch crawled up her back. She took two steps back almost immediately, pursed her lower lip in discomfort, and wiped it with the back of her hand.

For a moment she didn't know whether to be grateful or not: fortunately she didn't apply lipstick.

According to common sense, a married woman in the Jin Dynasty should change her name to her husband by calling her "husband" or "counsel". Especially if she calls her husband by the title "master" in front of outsiders, it will appear that the relationship between husband and wife is not sincere.

Xue Mingyue initially called her Lang Jun, but later became frustrated and changed her name to Hou Ye.

In her previous life, when she was in exile, she had called out everything. After her rebirth, ever since she decided to make peace with Xie Lang, she had always called "Master Hou".

But she didn't expect that Xie Lang would bring this matter up.

Xie Lang leaned forward and looked at her with his dark eyes. After seeing her not responding for a long time, a trace of sadness and loneliness appeared in his eyes. He lowered his eyes and said, "It turns out you don't like this gift. If I had known better, I will not fight for you in exchange for rewards in front of Your Majesty."

"It's all my fault for being too self-righteous and not taking your thoughts into consideration. I'll go find your Majesty right away..."

"no!"

Xue Mingyue suddenly interrupted his self-analysis.

She exhaled slowly and emphasized against her numb scalp: "I don't dislike it, and I'm not dissatisfied. I'm just wondering when I should change my name to you."

She paused for a moment before shouting: "Jinglan."

If she had to choose between the two titles, she would definitely choose Jinglan over "Lang Jun" because it didn't sound as intimate.

Xie Lang seemed to have guessed her choice a long time ago and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.

His voice sounded very pleasant: "As long as you like it, I also like hearing you call me Jinglan."

Xue Mingyue: "..."

Xue Mingyue really didn't understand what he was happy about. He knew very well the relationship between her and him. He didn't know what made him happy with such self-deception.

Fortunately, someone else came out of the tent soon.

Lian Dongshu didn't show off at all like a general in the Jinwu Guard. When he saw the two of them, he just smiled and said, "Jinglan, you are not being kind. Are you just being honest and lazy?"

Xue Mingyue turned around and saluted him.

"Just a few words with my wife."

Xie Lang didn't have the slightest attitude towards him as a superior. He tilted his head slightly and said to Xue Mingyue: "The imperial doctor's camp is next to it. Just ask Wu Ye to take you there later. Remember not to run around."

Xue Mingyue glanced at him and said angrily: "I'm not a child."

She wouldn't run around without him having to explain.

Xie Lang's most rare thing was that she looked so alive. His throat was rolling up and down, but he still couldn't help but reach out and pinch her slightly bulging cheeks, and whispered: "Whether you are a child or not doesn't stop me from caring about you. "

Xue Mingyue slapped his hand away and glared at him with almond-shaped eyes.

Xie Lang laughed.

A trace of surprise flashed across Lian Dongshu's eyes, and he couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

Seeing that he really cares about his wife, it is no wonder that he vigorously protects her in front of His Majesty, tries his best to distance herself from the Lin Xue family, and even deliberately puts her in the position of the victim.

After learning that Jin Xiaodong had done something to her horse, she even tortured her to a state of disgrace.

This guy is more cruel and protective than his father.

Lian Dongshu coughed lightly and said in a rather unflattering tone: "Little Marquis, Your Majesty is still waiting for us. No matter how much you and your wife are in love, you should always put important things first. You won't have to say goodbye even after such a short distance, right?"

Xie Lang smiled and said: "People like you, adults, who have never been married, naturally don't understand."

"..."

After Xie Lang left, Xue Mingyue did not forget to glare at his back.

I don’t know how he became like this!

Xue Mingyue cursed in her heart, and when she turned around and was about to walk towards the imperial doctor's tent, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the interrogation tent from the corner of her eye. Even though it was separated by one layer, she could still smell the faint smell of blood.

The people locked inside must be members of Lin Xue's family as expected.

Until she died of an epidemic in her previous life, she had never heard of anything happening to any of them, but it was worthy of His Majesty to send Lian Dongshu, the leader of the Jinwu Guards, to interrogate them. I guess it was not a trivial matter.

In the meantime, they were still free to interrogate Jin Xiaodong, which really surprised Xue Mingyue.

Thinking of this, Xue Mingyue finally remembered something, paused slightly, tilted her head and asked, "What was the result of Jin Xiaodong's interrogation?"

Wuye: "..."

Wu Ye dutifully told everything that the Marquis should have said, and said: "Jin Xiaodong admitted that he deliberately bribed the chamberlain who guarded the horse, specially drugged the horse, and then asked the chamberlain to lead the horse to you during the competition. "

"He said that he did this without anyone's instructions. He just wanted to teach you a lesson for the Ninth Princess."

Xue Mingyue raised her eyebrows: "Is there nothing else?"

"Yes, according to what he said there is no more."

Wu Ye quickly glanced around and lowered his voice: "However, after the interrogation, Mr. Hou said that someone deliberately instigated Jin Xiaodong to do this, and we are investigating secretly."

Oh, this is killing someone with a borrowed knife.

Xue Mingyue's eyes turned cold.
