Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1609

Chapter 1609

Cen Yuan raised his head and drank the strong liquor.

Emperor Mingde thought about how to comfort his son-in-law, "Xia'er is very strong, tough and stubborn. After she learned about the Heartless Gu, she had a preconceived idea that she was sick, so she devoted herself to fighting against the Heartless Gu, and instead lost her feelings for you."

This was the only way he could think of to comfort his son-in-law. What else could he do?

Anyway, every time he saw An Xia and Cen Yuan together, he felt that the young couple was very loving and made people envious.

Cen Yuan continued drinking without saying anything.

"Don't let your imagination run wild." Emperor Mingde personally poured wine for his son-in-law, but he suddenly realized: the outstanding Emperor Heng of Liang was willing to follow him into battle not to lead those young generals.

His real purpose was to stay away from his wife and give her a chance to catch her breath.

In this way, Shi Anxia can live a more relaxed life.

It was already late when Cen Yuan returned to Tinglanyuan drunk.

There was still light in the study.

Bei Hui came forward happily, "Young Master, you are back. Madam has been waiting for you."

Cen Yuan was very drunk. He had indulged himself today and had drunk too much, so his steps were a little unsteady.

He pushed open the door and stood by it. He saw the little girl looking at him with her clear eyes, a smile clearly in her eyes.

I felt a little dazed and didn't know what day it was.

Suddenly I wanted to ask: If General Weibei had not been the savior of Beiyi, would Empress Dowager Huizheng have been so kind to him?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he wanted to slap himself.

The scarlet eyes were filled with pain.

Her voice was tinged with a hint of charm due to the moisture she had gained in the past few days since the marriage consummation. "Husband, you're back."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked forward.

Cen Yuan's heart warmed up, and the alcohol started to rise. He walked towards Shi Anxia with unsteady steps.

He managed to steady himself, but his eyes never left her face.

Her cheeks turned slightly red, and when she saw him staggering, she hurriedly held onto his arm.

"Why did you drink so much?" She frowned, with a look of reproach in her eyes.

Cen Yuan chuckled softly, then pulled her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head. He smelled the faint fragrance from her hair, and felt a little more at peace.

He closed his eyes and complained in a hoarse voice, "Father forced me to drink. You can talk to him another day."

Emperor Mingde, who was reviewing memorials in the imperial study, suddenly felt a cool breeze blowing past, making him feel cold.

Shi Anxia rarely saw Cen Yuan drunk. She struggled slightly in his arms, but he held her tighter.

She had no choice but to let him hold her, and said softly, "I'll ask Bei Hui to make you a bowl of hangover soup, so you won't have a headache tomorrow."

Cen Yuan refused to let go, lowering his head and whispering in her ear, "You are the best hangover soup."

The smell of alcohol filled his nose. Shi Anxia's cheeks turned even redder when he heard that, and he punched his chest.

Hiss! My hand hurts from beating it.

Cen Yuan chuckled, held her hand, brought it to her lips and kissed it, then carried her sideways into the bedroom and sat down beside the bed.

He put his arms around her, his eyes blurred, and said drunkenly, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days."

Shi Anxia was slightly startled, then she understood what he meant. She was sitting on his lap, and she blushed even more when she heard his words, and hit him lightly again.

Cen Yuan held her hand and her heart softened.

It is soft with a hint of pain.

He reached out his hand and touched her jade-like cheek, stroking it gently with his fingertips, "Xia Xia, it must be very hard for you to deal with someone like me?"

He buried his head in the crook of her neck for a long time, his voice choked with sobs and a strong smell of alcohol, "I know you're having a hard time, but I still... want to stay by your side. I don't want to leave..."
