Chapter 200 The target of the mission forced the host to love 02
Feeling Lu Huaiyuan's emotions, Xiao Muhuai couldn't help but smile.
He reached out, tightly grasped the other person's waist, and said, "A Yuan, I won't let you go."
"You are mine, and you will always be mine."
As Xiao Muhuai spoke, he lowered his eyelids, and a sinister emotion was constantly surging in his eyes.
Lu Huaiyuan was oblivious to everything, but he asked, "Xiao Muhuai, are you planning to keep me locked up like this for the rest of my life?"
"Of course not." Xiao Muhuai raised his head in Lu Huaiyuan's arms and reached out to touch his face: "A Yuan, wait until I have dealt with things here, and then I will take you away, okay?"
"Let's go to a place where no one knows us and no one disturbs us, and just stay with you quietly."
He paused, then added, "Or you can go anywhere, but remember to take me with you."
Xiao Muhuai knew clearly that people like Lu Huaiyuan were definitely not just birds kept in someone else's home.
He can use these means to temporarily trap people by his side, and all he relies on is the other party's temporary indulgence.
But as for what will happen in the future, he couldn't be sure.
But Lu Huaiyuan will never let go in his life.
Hearing him say this, Lu Huaiyuan's eyes turned slightly, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.
"Come with me?" he asked, "Then, Your Majesty, are you really willing to give up the splendor and wealth of the capital?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Muhuai stared into Lu Huaiyuan's eyes and said seriously, "A Yuan, I only want you in this life."
Lu Huaiyuan lowered his eyes to look at the person in his arms, and naturally saw the stubbornness and faint madness in his eyes.
His expression changed slightly, and he reached out to hug him back, but did not speak again.
Seeing this, Xiao Muhuai raised the corners of his lips slightly, thinking that he agreed to what he had just said.
Lu Huaiyuan reached out and rubbed his head, feeling surprisingly good.
-----------------
The next day.
When Xiao Muhuai woke up, Lu Huaiyuan was still sleeping soundly beside him.
He got up quietly and prepared to go to court.
As the nominal regent of Dongling Kingdom, although Xiao Muhuai has no real power in political affairs, he still needs to go through the motions for matters such as the morning court.
However, whether it was because of what happened after the night banquet or because of Lu Huaiyuan's appearance, Jun Chengyan's targeting of him became more and more obvious.
He must have been so upset that during the morning court session, the other party openly proposed to arrange a marriage for him in front of all the officials.
Xiao Muhuai raised his eyes and looked at Jun Chengyan who was sitting in the upper seat, but his expression became increasingly cold.
Jun Chengyan's eyes swept over and happened to meet his.
Neither of them averted their gaze, and for a moment, there was even a sense of tension between them.
The other people in the court were unaware of the inside story, but some ministers who supported Jun Chengyan spoke out in agreement.
Xiao Muhuai listened to everyone discussing and persuading each other, and he couldn't help feeling annoyed.
He breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed his emotions, and then looked at the man on the dragon throne: "I already have someone I like, and I intend to marry her as my princess."
"So, Your Majesty, are you planning to arrange a marriage between me and my princess?"
Jun Chengyan's face turned cold when he heard this: "Prince Regent, be careful with your words."
"It's been a while since you returned to the capital. How could I not know that you have someone you love?"
He looked at Xiao Muhuai with a sharp gaze: "I also have good intentions this time, it is better for the Regent not to make excuses."
"That's not an excuse," Xiao Muhuai said. "Didn't Your Majesty meet the person I admire at the last banquet?"
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his eyes, looked directly into Jun Chengyan's eyes, and said, "Since Your Majesty means well, may I ask you for the imperial decree granting the marriage today?"
Jun Chengyan didn't expect that Xiao Muhuai would openly mention the matter between him and Lu Huaiyuan in such an occasion and in front of so many people.
So he ground his back teeth, and his complexion became even darker and more frightening.
When the other people in the hall heard this, they were also extremely shocked.
When they suddenly heard such big news, they were really shocked and couldn't react for a while.
So in the end, Jun Chengyan said with a gloomy face, "Uncle, you're joking."
"You are the regent of Dongling Kingdom, and your princess consort should be a gentle, virtuous, and noble lady from a prominent family. Therefore, not just anyone can be the regent princess!"
As soon as he finished speaking, many ministers who had reacted came to their senses and began to persuade him.
Seeing this, Jun Chengyan couldn't help but smile: "I only regard what I said today as a joke. Prince Regent, please don't mention it again in the future."
Xiao Muhuai spoke, his tone was faint, yet seemed extremely serious.
"In this life, I will only marry him."
He raised his eyes to look at Jun Chengyan and looked into his eyes silently.
No one else dared to speak, and even their breathing became lighter.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little tense for a moment.
Xiao Muhuai's eyes turned slightly, but he said: "However, Your Majesty suddenly mentioned this matter. I also have an important matter that I would like to boldly propose."
He finished speaking, and before the person could speak, he continued, "Your Majesty has already reached the age of twenty, but the harem is still empty. This is really worrying."
"The issue of offspring is the continuation of the royal family and the prosperity of the royal bloodline. It is related to the foundation of the country." Xiao Muhuai curled his lips and smiled: "So, should the selection of candidates be put on the agenda now?"
Xiao Muhuai had a faint smile on his face, and he seemed to be a good prince who was really concerned about the country and the people.
However, as soon as he said this, he instantly diverted everyone's attention.
After all, what Xiao Muhuai said was exactly what the ministers present wanted.
When Jun Chengyan was still a prince, he had no wives or concubines in his mansion.
Later, he was determined to marry Lu Huaiyuan, so he was willing to leave the six palaces empty for him.
However, there is no one in Jun Chengyan's harem now, and the ministers in the court, especially those who have daughters of marriageable age, naturally want to send their daughters to the palace to win honor and favor for themselves and their families.
It has been some time since Jun Chengyan ascended the throne.
These ministers also mentioned the matter of the selection openly or secretly, but they were all rejected sternly by the other party.
Besides, Jun Chengyan was previously obsessed with Lu Huaiyuan and insisted on marrying the other party, the queen mother.
Although the ministers wanted to stop him, they were temporarily silenced by the severe punishment from His Majesty.
Now that Xiao Muhuai has rashly started it, and Jun Chengyan has rarely mentioned his wedding with Lu Huaiyuan recently, many people are now active again.
Therefore, the ministers stopped discussing the trivial matter of Xiao Muhuai's love for men and his intention to marry Lu Huaiyuan, and immediately spoke out to agree with him.
"Your Majesty, I think what the Regent just said is reasonable."
"Your Majesty, I believe that filling the harem and continuing the family line are important matters, so I hope Your Majesty will approve the selection."
"I second the proposal."
