Chapter 110a: Heavenly Dream Tower is especially bustling tonight

When they left Heavenly Dream Tower, Nalan Ye accompanied Luo Qian Luan in the carriage as it swayed slightly, occasionally with the sound of hooves grovelling in the background. It was already very late at night and having left the bustling Heavenly Dream Tower, the surroundings started to become quiet but Luo Qing Luo did not feel peaceful at all, instead she had a strange feeling.

Not wanting to say anything, Luo Qing Luan intentionally looked out of the curtain slit as her expression was calm but she endured and endured until she finally couldn’t take it. She turned her head backwards as she asked sulkily, “Still looking! Have you looked enough?”

This Nalan Ye had been staring at her since they were in Heavenly Dream Tower which she could forget about. But now that they were in the carriage, he still continued to stare at her, did he really think that flowers were growing on her face, or was it so rare that she had grown a few more pairs of eyes?

Luckily Nalan Ye no longer acted like what he did earlier, speaking in a mushy tone. He gave a slight smile as that fair, good looking face revealed an unearthly temperament making one’s heartbeat turned crazy, “Why, you’re blushing? Qing Luan, you’re my wife and is it not nice for me to like looking at you?”

“If it wasn’t for the bestowal, would I have married you? We have an agreement in the first place, in front of outsiders I can forget about it, but now that there’s only the two of us, don’t go overboard!” Luo Qing Luan’s eyes stared daggers at Nalan Ye, bearing a dissatisfied tone.

This little wife of his was slightly hard to chase, so he would need to put in more effort to make her develop feelings for him.

With a slight sigh, Nalan Ye nodded as he replied, “Naturally would not forget, don’t you worry. No matter what you want to do, I will not dabble in your affairs. You like to earn money, or head over to Heavenly Dream Tower, or create some clothing, I won’t stop you, as long as you ensure your own safety, that will do.”

Looking at his pleasant countenance which wasn’t overly passionate and his speaking was considered normal, she started to feel slightly more relaxed. She casted a sidelong glance at Nalan Ye as she said calmly, “That would be great but from your meaning, are you implying that I will meet with danger on the streets?”

Nalan Ye’s brows congealed slightly as he voiced out, “I don’t really mean this, but…..”

His eyes turned and he gave Luo Qing Luan a look as a smirk of concern grazed over his eyes, “Perhaps you still don’t know but His Majesty’s birthday is coming soon. Moreover the Four Kingdoms Congress will be held not too long later. This year the destination is just nicely set at Western Chu State. By then, it wouldn’t just be Western Chu State, even East Wan, North Yue and even South Yue’s people would all be there. Think about it, will it be peaceful?”

His Majesty’s birthday? And the Four Kingdoms Congress, what was that?

Luo Qing Luan had never heard of this in the past, and even in her memories, there wasn’t any record of this matter. She looked at Nalan Ye’s earnest look and knew that he wasn’t joking hence she couldn’t help but got curious.

“If it’s just His Majesty’s birthday, it’s still alright but this time it had to be right before Four Kingdoms Congress so I’m thinking that the other three countries’ people would not miss this chance. Among the four Kingdoms, let’s first put aside the number one rank’s East Wan. The one which causes one headache is North Yue. Qing Luan, you should know why is this so, right?”

Although Luo Qing Luan was not interested in the affairs of the kingdom, but to her, other than earning money, the next thing was to let her and the people who she was concerned about to lead a peaceful and happy life. But as there were just too many truths about North Yue so even if she intentionally didn’t try to find out about it, she would still be able to understand it all clearly from bystander’s bits and pieces of conversation.

Her gaze lifted upwards and she saw that suave man dressed in dark robe frowning, “How could I not know? Isn’t it all because of you!” Although that was what she spoke out, strangely, she felt a sense of arrogance and complacency in her heart.

Five years ago, Nalan Ye led the army to defeat North Yue and rewrote the Four Kingdom’s ranking, allowing the original weakest Western Chu State to leap into second place, just below East Wan Kingdom. This was Nalan Ye’s ability and Western Chu’s pride. Western Chu’s Emperor began to dote and trust in Nalan Ye even further, giving him the status of riding high above everyone else but just one.

In the past, Nalan Ye’s achievements were something which Luo Qing Luan knew about but she did not do anything about it then. But now at this moment, she suddenly felt proud as she shared his glory.

That talented man who defeated North Yue was her husband, and furthermore he treated her in a special way as time went by. From the beginning that cold and distance became the adoration and pampering now, Luo Qing Luan herself felt that it was just too unbelievable. She didn’t believe that Nalan Ye was true towards her, just because his change was just too huge, hence it made her still unable to believe that it was true.

But for all the things which Nalan Ye had done for her, from the smallest thing was which was to look at her wholeheartedly, speaking sweet nothings to her to the largest matter of standing up for her, protecting her so that she would not be harmed secretly by Wang Xue Ru. All these convinced her that he was truly very good to her. This man who was revered, feared and admired by countless women had somehow turned into her husband and he even treated her in such a special way. Luo Qing Luan eventually wasn’t able to treat the situation lightly as ripples started to appear at the bottom of her heart.

Nalan Ye didn’t say much about his past achievements, only speaking in a concerned tone, “Qing Luan, I hope you can slightly be a little more careful and protect yourself properly. Recently quite a number of merchants from various countries have arrived earlier in Western Chu and although we can’t tell much on the surface but it wouldn’t be that simple in the dark. I am not able to stay by your side to protect you at all times, so you have to take care of yourself and be more careful by then.”

Pausing he asked, “That drawing room of yours has more than enough people so why not let Yuan Xin and Yong An follow you around, that will make me feel more assured as well.”

Although he knew that Luo Qing Luan’s medical skills were particularly fine and when she made a move, even he was caught unaware but her only weakness was that she didn’t know any martial arts, not even a little bit of it. If she met someone with ill intentions and moved swiftly, even if she had those knockout medicine or similar drugs on her, she probably wouldn’t have the time to use it as well. He assigned Yuan Xin and Yong An to follow her around originally to ensure her safety. But he had not expected that they were assigned by her to earn more money for her, to draw those erotic pictograms and write some erotic stories.

Thinking of this point, Nalan Ye was totally speechless.

“If I allow Yuan Xin and Yong An to follow me around, does that mean that you will not stick around me anymore?” Luo Qing Luan’s brows rose as she looked at him.
