Chapter 896: 414 Confession (two updates)

King Rui pinched her cheek, "Silly girl, what’s so difficult about that? You’re my wife, if I don’t treat you well, who would I treat well?"

"Cough." King Ning cleared his throat, "Let’s go."

The Lady of King Rui swiftly withdrew her hand and King Rui scratched his head in embarrassment. Afterwards, the two of them acted as if intentionally avoiding each other, wishing they could be separated by a carriage’s distance.

However, King Ning, despite the public’s gaze, held the Lady of King Ning’s hand under the broad daylight.

The customs of the current dynasty were more open than the previous, but such intimacy in public was rare.

The Lady of King Ning felt somewhat uneasy, but King Ning’s smile was warm and gentle, making it hard to resist.

A group of four left the Imperial Palace. The carriages of both households had been waiting outside the palace for a long time. Naturally, the Lady of King Rui returned with King Rui. Normally, King Ning would also return with the Lady of King Ning to King Ning’s Manor.

Unexpectedly, King Ning held the Lady of King Ning’s hand and said, "The Emperor wants me to visit the Imperial Study Room this afternoon. You should return home first."

The Lady of King Ning quickly replied, "If there is official business, why didn’t you say so earlier?"

King Ning smiled and said, "I wanted to see you off, to be at ease only once you’re up in the carriage."

The Lady of King Rui was filled with envy, wondering what kind of divine love this was between her elder brother and sister-in-law?

The Lady of King Ning said, "Then hurry and see the Emperor, I’m returning."

King Ning replied with a smile, "Alright."

After saying this, the Lady of King Ning withdrew her hand and turned to board the carriage of King Ning’s Manor.

King Rui bid farewell to King Ning, "Well then, big brother, we’ll be leaving first."

King Ning nodded, "The matter I discussed with you, keep it in mind, I’ll speak to the Emperor on your behalf later."

King Rui replied with a hearty laugh, "Sure thing!"

What did big brother ask you to do?" whispered the Lady of King Rui.

"I’ll tell you later." King Rui, holding his wife’s hand, walked towards the carriage of King Rui’s Manor. Just when he was about to help the Lady of King Rui into the carriage, another carriage suddenly raced down the Official Road by the Palace Gate.

The carriage was moving so fast that even as it neared the Palace Gate, it didn’t slow down, almost crashing into them.
