The Queen’s Husband Chapter 32

After the division of works was over, Yu Xinruo trotted to Qu Yang’s side. He was standing in front of the pile of pots and pans and he seemed to be at a loss. She couldn’t help but grin, “Let’s do it together.”

 

A smile finally appeared on Qu Yang’s cold face, and he nodded lightly.

 

Yu Xinruo took two small shovels from a large bag, handed one to Qu Yang, and then found a place where the soil was soft.  She told him the type of holes to dig, the kind that can set up a cooking pot and large enough for chicken and fish to be stuffed in. Qu Yang was indeed a smart student, he dug five or six holes quickly under her guidance.

 

At this moment, Jun Yilie and Jun Aoyun brought over the chicken and fish that had been covered in mud. Seeing Yu Xinruo carefully stuffing the chicken and fish into the small holes, he couldn’t help being curious. Jun Yilie coughed lightly, and asked indifferently: “The perfectly good chicken and fish are now muddy and stuffed into the hole, it’s so dirty now, how can they be eaten?”

 

Jun Aoyun also shook his head and said: “The emperor is right, I have eaten so many chicken and fish that are flavored and tasty, but I have never seen anyone doing it this way before, the county’s method is really strange. .”

 

Yu Xinruo didn’t look at them, she smiled while busy with the work at hand: “Don’t worry, my cooking craftsmanship is fabulous, and you will want to eat it. Since there is nothing to do now, the emperor and the prince may rest on the side, I will call you when the meal is ready.”

 

Jun Yilie rolled his eyes angrily but heard Yu Xinruo say again: “By the way, there is a box of chess in the bag here. If the emperor and the lord are bored, why not play chess to relieve the boredom.”

 

Jun Aoyun didn’t feel like moving anymore, but when he heard about the chess, he turned over the bag and said with a smile: “I didn’t expect the county to be so thoughtful and bring things here to relieve boredom. I have not played chess with the emperor for a while, and today I shall have a few games at this beautiful place, which is very pleasing!”

 

There was also a smile on Jun Yilie’s handsome face, and he nodded. The two of them took the chess box, found a clean and shaded place to sit, and started playing.

 

Long rows of trees provided green shade above their head, songbirds were singing in their ears, a gentle breeze blowing around them, white clouds lingering above them and the mountain streams were gurgling around them. Within this beautiful setting, Jun Yilie felt relaxed and happy, and all the anger disappeared. He was playing the chess game carelessly, and his eyes couldn’t help but slanted towards Yu Xinruo’s direction. As he glanced, he couldn’t help but suffocate, and couldn’t take his eyes away.

 

Maybe it was because of the hot weather, Yu Xinruo had taken off her jacket, leaving only the thin gauze skirt on her body. Her graceful curves were looming, she looked charming and attractive. The sleeves were rolled up to the elbow, revealing two white jade arms like tender lotus roots. She just squatted there casually, folded green vegetables in her hands, raised her pretty face, and chatted and laughed with Qu Yang. Her smile was so bright and brilliant, dazzling like a pearl in the sun, almost blinding Jun Yilie’s eyes and taking his breath away.

 

He suddenly realized that although she had been his queen for a year and they had lived together for nearly ten years, he didn’t know her at all! Now she is a mystery in his eyes. Before today, she was like a dull stone, but now she is like a shining jade, pure and beautiful, mysterious and full of temptation. He couldn’t help but want to explore and analyze her.

 

He couldn’t understand why he didn’t think she was good previously, but only felt she was hateful. Was it because he never cared about her? Was it because he was dissatisfied with the domineering Dowager that forced him to take her? Was it because on the wedding night, she was held in the arms of other men in front of him, which made him feel ashamed?

 

But why have all these reasons suddenly disappeared now? He no longer felt that she was hateful in his heart, he only felt that she was beautiful and cute, and had a desire to get close to her.

 

However, her words suddenly appeared in his mind: “This county master only likes Qu Yang, till the end of the world”

 

In just a few days, her heart has turned to Qu Yang, and she is determined, till the end of the world. Jun Yilie’s lips unknowingly sketched a wry smile, should he accuse her of being flirty, or should he be happy for her that she found someone she likes?

 

Seeing Yu Xinruo and Qu Yang’s love for each other, Jun Yilie suddenly felt his chest tighten, as the scene in front of him irritated him.

 

Am I feeling jealous? Could it be that I am jealous of this hateful girl? The thought flashed in his mind. Impossible! How could he be jealous of this stinky girl? Not only did she despise his royal honor, but she also complained about him to the Dowager. Not only that, but she often speaks rudely to him, sarcastically, how could he fall in love with her?

 

Jun Yilie’s heart was completely chaotic after this thought.

 

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty! What’s the matter with you?” The seventh prince, Jun Aoyun had placed his piece. Seeing that Jun Yilie was holding the chess piece in his hand but didn’t put it down for a long time. He couldn’t help but look up at him strangely, only to see Jun Yilie looking sideways at him. Somewhere, the expression on his face changed again and again, and he seemed to be in great distress.

 

Jun Aoyun followed his gaze, his heart sank immediately.

 

“Your Majesty!” Jun Aoyun raised his voice and shouted again, Jun Yilie was shocked and came back to his senses. Looking at Jun Aoyun’s inquiring eyes, he tried to cover his embarrassment with fake laughter and said, “Brother Huang’s chess skill is getting better and better. It takes me a long time to take a step forward.”

 

Jun Aoyun smiled calmly and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty, how can my chess skills be compared to the Emperor’s?” He thought to himself: “ If she returns to the palace, with the Dowager supporting her, the queen’s position will surely be hers.  Feier’s efforts will all come to nothing. No, he has to think quickly to court Yu Xinruo, and not let her hinder Feier’s future.

 

The two played absent-mindedly for a few games, and finally heard Yu Xinruo’s cheerful voice: “Let’s eat! Your Majesty, Lord, hurry up!
