Chapter 521 - I Am Simply the Marshal's Wife

Translator: CallisEditor: Walker

After sleeping in his study for an entire night, Zong He, who had been aching all over, went downstairs only to see a nervous Tang Wan. He said disapprovingly: “You can go if you want to, and don’t go if you don’t want to. There’s nothing to be worried about.” 

Tang Wan was still worried, “It’s not good like this. The main point was to invite me to get to know β Ursae Minoris’ nobility. As a leading role, if I don’t go, I won’t be giving the Empress any face.” 

Zong He still kept his manner, “There’s nothing bad about that. The Empress isn’t a narrow-minded person. Look at you.”

Tang Wan was at a loss, “If I go this time, would all of the nobles recognize me?”

Zong He suddenly changed his attitude, “Then go. It would be a perfect time for you to announce your status and tell everyone that this is what the Marshal’s wife looks like. You don’t need to guess any more.” 

Tang Wan: “……”

“You were married off to me when I was still a handicapped person. Don’t we have a couple’s deep feelings?” 

Tang Wan was unhappy, “I don’t understand what you’re trying to show off.”

Zong He unyieldingly responded, “Humans truly are hard to understand.”

Tang Wan’s lips twitched and his gaze was increasingly unhappy, “I truly don’t understand big cats. Little cats are better.”

Zong He’s expression chilled, “Are you talking about Da Zhuang again?”

Tang Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Don’t be so sensitive, I didn’t say anything.”

Tang Wan looked at Zong He’s solemn gaze and suddenly wanted to laugh, “, the Imperial family already knew. The Empress’s ability to concentrate and her boldness was admirable. Had Zong He gone looking for his cousin for this matter?

Nearly half an hour later, Tang Wan was still talking to the Empress, and had already figured out all of the powers. At this time, Zong He, an uncle, and young heterochromatic-eyed Crown Prince came up to the second floor together. The Empress stood up with a smile, “Let’s go. We’ll let them speak leisurely and then we can go eat.” 

Tang Wan stifled his laugh. This Empress was very interesting. She didn’t care if she abandoned them?

Zong He walked towards Tang Wan and pulled on his wrist. His eyes were gentle as he asked: “We’ll leave after the meal?”

Tang Wan smiled, “I’ll listen to you.” 

He had also determined that Zong He and the Imperial family’s relationship was very good. Then, when he thought of how he had misunderstood the Emperor’s infidelity, Tang Wan felt guilty. Fortunately, he now knew the truth. Otherwise, his mouth would be saying one thing while he would be madly cursing the other in his heart. He would be very sorry. 

With a simple meal, the atmosphere was very harmonious. The Emperor really did look at Zong He like he was looking at an older son. He must share a drink with Zong He. Seeing that he was in good health, his eyes curved up happily with his smile, always wanting to pat Zong He’s shoulder. Zong He’s temperament was a little cold, but was helpless under his cousin’s gaze. He was even a little unhappy; when the other leaned over, he would shrink away. He just wanted to pour wine for the other and let him eat and drink and not spew nonsense. 

The Crown Prince helped his uncle drag his father back, also with a face of helplessness. 

Watching from the side, Tang Wan thought it was delightful. 

The Empress gently told Tang Wan: “Their relationship is very good. During the time Zong He was injured, your cousin couldn’t sleep for several days. Carlos kept saying that Zong He had only been injured to save him. To save this son, the other had been sacrificed.”

Zong He unhappily raised his glass and poured its contents down his cousin’s throat, “I’m not your son, you’re not that old. Drink more and talk less.” 

Tang Wan looked at Zong He’s curved lips and he also smiled. Fortunately, Zong He still had a family. His mother wasn’t reliable, but the Imperial family treated him very well. 

The Crown Prince was sitting at the side, entirely with the attitude of a younger generation. He didn’t speak much until he finished his meal. Only then did he glance at Tang Wan and coincidentally, Tang Wan was also looking at him. The two pairs of eyes were staring at the other. Tang Wan smiled, not speaking to him.

Carlos asked with a smile in his eyes: “I heard that you lost your memories?”

Tang Wan nodded, “En, I forgot everything I was supposed to forget and everything I wasn’t supposed to forget. I don’t plan on treating it.”

Carlos laughed, “Truly, there are some things that are better off being forgotten. If it’s forgotten, then leave it be.” 

Zong He had already poured drinks for his cousin. Though he hadn’t drunk much, he was still a little tipsy. He narrowed his eyes and watched Tang Wan and Carlos speak. He was a little upset. Tang Wan was afraid that his next words would be to send the Crown Prince away. He quickly turned around and asked, concerned, “You didn’t drink that much right?”

Zong He shook his head and look at his cousin, who was already lying down on the table, sleeping, and said bluntly: “Didn’t drink a lot.”

Tang Wan pursed his lips and almost laughed out loud. If he took a picture of this and uploaded it to the Internet, he didn’t know how much interest it would rouse. As he thought of this, Tang Wan quickly shook his head. He couldn’t be such a devil, he needed to be a good man! 

Can we count this as a dinner date? ヽ(ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ
