Chapter 500: The Heartless Regent King vs. the Scheming Princess 45
Xie Zhao felt so upset that he even forgot to complain.
Lu Zhihuan's tears flowed more and more fiercely, and she said helplessly: "I have an eyelash stuck in my eye, can you help me take it out?"
Xie Zhao: “…”
He thought...
I lowered my head and looked at my hands. No, I had to go wash my hands.
"Wait a moment."
……
"did you see?"
Xie Zhao straightened her face and said, "Don't move."
"Down there, down there." Lu Zhihuan wanted to hide, "Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts."
"Don't move, don't move, I saw it, I saw it." Xie Zhao carefully took out the eyelashes.
Carefully wiped the tears from Lu Zhihuan's face.
Seeing her red eyes, just like when she was crying because of being bullied by him, he couldn't help swallowing.
He held her face in his hands, stroking her lips with his fingertips.
Xie Zhao put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms, his hoarse voice alluring and alluring.
"I miss you so much."
After saying this, he kissed her hard on the lips.
a long time……
Xie Zhao let her go, lowered his head, and tried to calm down.
The voice sighed softly, "This is really going to kill me."
Lu Zhihuan took his hand, put it to her lips and kissed it, then leaned her body against his and whispered in his ear, "I can help you~"
Xie Zhao's body stiffened.
His body seemed to be out of control as he followed her to the bed, where the curtains were drawn.
Xie Zhao was pushed down on the bed by her, and Lu Zhihuan approached him.
Her slender hand quietly reached into his collar, and the subtle touch of her fingertips on his skin made him shudder all over.
Lu Zhihuan's fingers slowly moved downwards, and Xie Zhao grabbed her wrist, "I can't let you suffer like this."
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her rosy face, and her tempting red lips were extremely tempting to him.
Lu Zhihuan lowered her head and kissed him, her hands slightly breaking free from his shackles, and then whispered seductively in his ear: "You have to listen to me."

His deep eyes were filled with desire, and his throat kept sliding.
Half an hour later.
Lu Zhihuan was extremely tired and had fallen asleep.
Xie Zhao resigned himself to his fate and stood up to clean up the mess before going to take a shower.
……
Xie Zhao hadn't attended court for a long time. Many dignitaries came to visit him, but he avoided them all.
He doesn't vomit as often now, and doesn't care much about court affairs.
If the Lord Regent doesn't move, it's fine; but if he moves, it's shocking.
A month later, the Regent re-entered the court. When he was about to leave, he handed in a memorial.
When the little emperor opened it, it was as if the sky had fallen, "Uncle, you must return the throne."
The whole room was suddenly in an uproar.
The little emperor stood up quickly and asked, "Uncle, did your nephew do something wrong?"
Xie Zhao shook his head, "No, it's because your aunt is already over three months pregnant. I am here to reassure the people of the world."
The little emperor was shocked, "Really? Congratulations, uncle."
"Can……"
"The king has made up his mind."
Not only the little emperor, but everyone in the court was also shocked. The regent had only been married for four months, and the princess was already more than three months pregnant.
The first thing they thought of was that the Regent had never taken the sterilization medicine.
So why did they speculate about him so much all those years ago?
Xie Zhao didn’t know this, and of course he wouldn’t explain it even if he knew.
He really gave up power and even proposed to appoint a team of regents to handle important government affairs through collective decision-making.
Another month later.
A group of ministers came to the Regent's Palace and they all knelt in the courtyard.
"Please ask the Regent to revoke your order."
"Please ask the Regent to revoke your order."
"Please ask the Regent to revoke your order."
Not only the ministers in the court, but the people were even more worried. They jointly wrote a letter to the court, requesting the court to clarify the subsequent policy guidelines to reassure the people.
Xie Zhao sat in the study, motionless as a mountain.
Lu Zhihuan stood at the door of the back hall and watched all this, tears couldn't help but fall.
This is true that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
When he was appointed as regent, these people forced him into a desperate situation and forced him to take sterilizing drugs. He endured so much humiliation.
Now, these people are kneeling down to ask him to continue to serve as regent.
Lu Zhihuan touched her bulging belly and said, "Xie Zhao, this is all what they owe you."
They knelt for three days and said all the nice things they could.
"The rise and fall of the nation depends on Your Highness. I sincerely hope Your Highness will revoke your order and not abandon the country and its people."
"The late emperor appointed you as regent. How could you give up halfway?"
"Yes, now Daye Dynasty has no internal or external troubles, all thanks to you."
Xie Zhao didn't even show up.
Lu Zhihuan knew that he was also feeling bad and was not really going to give up.
The young emperor was also very smart. No matter how much his ministers advised him, he did not show up.
He knew that his uncle had suffered a lot for him and the Daye Dynasty.
Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May.
At the palace banquet, everyone saw the Regent again, and a woman with a bulging belly was beside him.
Everyone has heard that the princess is pregnant with twins.
The little emperor quickly stood up and said, "Uncle, aunt."
Just as Lu Zhihuan was about to pay her respects to the little emperor, Xie Zhao grabbed her.
The little emperor quickly said, "Auntie, there's no need to be polite."
The ministers present looked at each other in bewilderment. The regent had never failed to greet the little emperor in all these years.
I didn’t expect that the princess was an exception to the regent’s rule.
After returning, could they ask their wives to visit the princess and save the country in a roundabout way?
Xie Zhao could see what his subordinates were thinking at a glance.
Noticing the extremely low mood of the person next to her, she squeezed his hand.
The coldness in Xie Zhao's eyes faded away a little. He turned his head and shook hands lightly.
He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and the aura around him was no longer so cold and murderous.
May 26th is Xie Zhao’s birthday.
A grand banquet was held at the palace.
The sound of stringed instruments played melodiously, and all the civil and military officials in the court gathered with their families. It should have been a happy occasion, but everyone's eyes were frequently cast towards the main seat.
While Xie Zhao was still away, Lu Zhihuan stood up, opened her red lips, and spoke in a clear but resounding voice:
"This princess knows that you have been worried about the prince's decision to give up his power recently. I hope to use this princess' words to persuade the prince to change his mind."
She looked around and saw that everyone had their heads down, not daring to look up. She made her attitude clear.
"Since I married the prince, he has shown me his special affection, a love that no one can replace. Since I bear the prince's name, I will stand by him for the rest of my life and will never force him into anything."
After a pause, she continued, "Today is the prince's birthday. This princess doesn't want anyone or anything to make the prince unhappy."
Xie Zhao was not far away. He heard her words clearly and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
She understood his tiredness and knew what he was thinking.
Xie Zhao, for the rest of your life, your mission is to protect her and live up to her love.
