In the evening, when Shen Yihuan was about to go to bed, Zhao Xun came.

This was the first time the two had met since the selection of the concubine.

Shen Yihuan glanced at him but didn't say anything. She guessed in her heart that he must have come because of what happened today.

Shen Yihuan ignored him, and Zhao Xun felt even more guilty. He touched his nose, and for a moment he didn't know how to start talking.

It would be a lie to say they weren't sad that the couple would end up like this one day.

"Your Majesty, if you have nothing else to do, please leave immediately. I need to rest."

"Huan'er, you are finally willing to talk to me. I thought you would never talk to me again."

As soon as Shen Yihuan opened his mouth, Zhao Xun came over instantly like a cat smelling blood.

He hugged her, ignoring her struggles, and whispered coquettishly.

Shen Yihuan struggled for a bit, but seeing that the other party was holding him tighter, he had no choice but to turn around and glare at him.

"Your Majesty, you came here today to ask me why I attacked Concubine Xu, right?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Otherwise, why didn't you come earlier or later, but only came after I severely punished Lady Xu?"

"Tell me, what are your intentions?"

"You are really angry with me." Zhao Xun grabbed Shen Yihuan's hand, put it on his lips and kissed it, "But this time I came here, it's really because of Concubine Xu's matter."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yihuan became excited: "Look, look, I guessed it right, right? You men are the most heartless. You forget the old when you have a new one." As he spoke, he tried to get up from Zhao Xun's arms again.

"Huan'er, why are you so excited? I haven't even finished what I'm saying, why are you being jealous?" Zhao Xun said with a playful smile while hugging his lively little wife. "But, hey, Huan'er looks really pretty when she's jealous."

As he said that, he kissed Shen Yihuan on the pretty face.

"You stinky man, are you happy now? You ruthless and heartless stinky man, let me go, I never want to see you again, bastard, son of a bitch."

"No, I won't let you go even if you kill me." Zhao Xun continued to play tricks and tried to persuade her kindly, "Huan'er, you should know that my heart has always been with you."

"Hmph, that sounds nice. Then why did you come here today? Aren't you here to make the decision for Lady Xu?"

"of course not."

"Then you..." Shen Yihuan's expression improved a little and he said hesitantly.

Zhao Xun smiled, pinched her chin and kissed her bright red lips, then said with a smile: "I came here today to ask you, since Concubine Xu made you unhappy, why didn't you just beat her to death."

Shen Yihuan opened his eyes wide in surprise, blinked at Zhao Xun, and said, "Brother Xun, are you serious?"

"Is this a joke to you?" As he said that, he picked up a grape from the table, peeled it slowly, and then put it to her mouth.

Although, she shouldn't be happy, but she couldn't stop feeling happy at this moment.

Perhaps, she has never been a kind person.

She opened her mouth and ate the grapes that were brought to her.

The sweet taste spread in her mouth, and she squinted her eyes: "You are so cruel, I served you well, but you want to kill me."

"That depends on who she has offended." Zhao Xun smiled and continued, "Huan'er, I am willing to share the world with you. It's not easy to get to this position, I can't let myself down, right?"

Zhao Xun still wanted to tell Shen Yihuan that even if he would have many women in the future, her position in his heart would always be unique.

"Alas, if it weren't for the stability of the court, I wouldn't want to wrong my Huan'er like that."

"Huan'er, do you know that although I am with another woman, my heart is always with you." As he said this, he pressed Shen Yihuan's hand on his chest, letting her feel his heart beating for her.

Shen Yihuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed and pulled his hand back, saying, "You are already an old married couple, but you are still so mushy." Their child is already three years old, so they are no longer an old married couple.

"How could that be? In my eyes, Huan'er has always been new, very new."

"You are becoming more and more slick-tongued. You don't act like an emperor at all."

"To Huan'er, I am just an ordinary person. I am your husband, your good-grandfather, not a king."

Shen Yihuan felt very comforted by Zhao Xun's words.

"Will you stay tonight?"

Zhao Xun was delighted, but he still said stubbornly: "Huan'er, since you asked, I have to stay even if I don't want to."

"Oh, you finally told me your true feelings. If you don't want to stay, just leave. No one wants you to stay. Go away." Shen Yihuan reached out and pushed him.

Zhao Xun quickly begged for mercy: "No, my lady, spare my life. I know I was wrong."

As he spoke, he picked the person up with a wicked smile and walked quickly towards the bedroom.

Upon seeing this, the people in Luanfeng Palace retreated one after another.

When the two were in love, Shen Yihuan suddenly said, "Brother Xun, can I give you a few more children?"

Before, it was she who didn’t want to have a child, but Zhao Xun did.

But now it seems to be the opposite. In the past few years, Zhao Xun has not wanted her to give birth. The initial reason was that the child was still young and required too much energy, and also that her body had not yet recovered.

At the beginning, Shen Yihuan felt it was heartwarming, that was Zhao Xun's consideration for her, but as time went on, she couldn't help but feel suspicious.

What's more, there are so many more women in the harem now, which makes Shen Yihuan a little uneasy.

So tonight, she couldn't help but bring it up.

Zhao Xun held his sweaty wife in his arms and kissed her on the forehead. How could he not notice the uneasiness in her heart in recent times?

However, asking her to find peace of mind by having a child was something he was unwilling to do.

At the beginning, when he saw the scene of Shen Yihuan giving birth, he had secretly made up his mind that he would never let his beloved wife suffer like this again.

"I'm asking you a question." Shen Yihuan became anxious when she saw that he didn't respond for a long time.

"Huan'er, how could I let you go through that kind of pain again? When you gave birth to Xingguang and Yaoguang, I secretly told myself that you and I would only have these two children, and never have any more." As he said this, he hugged her tenderly as if he was afraid of losing her.

Shen Yihuan leaned in his arms and said sullenly, "But, I want to have a baby."

"Huan'er, I know what you are worried about." He stared straight at Shen Yihuan and sighed, "What should I do to give you a sense of security?"

Shen Yihuan also stared into his eyes for a long time, but finally surrendered.

"If you don't want to have a baby, then don't. If you don't want it, I don't want to have one either." Shen Yihuan suddenly turned away in a huff, giving him an angry look.

Seeing this, Zhao Xun was suddenly at a loss.

He leaned forward and coaxed softly, "It's not that I don't want to have a baby with you, I'm just afraid that you will suffer."

"I'm not afraid, so why are you afraid?"

"Okay, this is what you said, don't regret it." Zhao Xun turned over, pressed down his wife who was throwing a tantrum, and said with burning eyes.
