Tang Yu hadn't realized it before, but Yuan Shen's explanation made her think of a pattern she had summarized in the 21st century.

It's the kind of thing where a little boy likes to mess with a little girl's hair all the time, then steal her homework, or confess his feelings to her in front of everyone, or deliberately make her cry.

Tang Yu found this kind of affection terrifying every time she glanced at it.

Therefore, if the Crown Prince truly harbored such sentiments, she would genuinely decline.

Being harassed by a madman in the apocalypse was already incredibly disheartening.

Abnormal ways of expressing affection are really annoying.

"It seems that my wife and I met at just the right time. If it were a few years ago, I wouldn't have spoken so well and would have offended quite a few people."

Tang Yu was a little puzzled by Yuan Shen's sigh.

"Is there a big difference between my husband before and now? I remember Sister Qiqi saying something like that."

My husband used to treat Madam Huo rather strangely. He said he liked her, but he was always sarcastic and cynical. Could he be the same as the Crown Prince today?

Is this how my husband used to express his affection?

Seeing the shocked look in his young wife's eyes, Yuan Shen felt a little embarrassed.

He may not have been human in the past, but it doesn't seem to be as serious as the Crown Prince's situation. In many ways, he still maintains a gentlemanly demeanor.

"No one is like the Crown Prince, who pretends to be a cold and aloof king every day, mocking everyone in the world and finding fault with everyone."

But sometimes I can be difficult to get along with, and I might even have some prejudice against people, and my attitude can be a little arrogant.

Hearing this guilty answer, Tang Yu spoke with a half-smile.

"No wonder Mrs. Huo didn't want you before, but it doesn't matter. After Mrs. Huo's incident, my husband has clearly corrected his shortcomings and is just right for me."

Yuan Shen quickly stepped forward and hugged his wife, then smiled ingratiatingly.

"Madam is as beautiful as a fairy. If I don't treat her well, many people will want to take her away. I'm not stupid."

Tang Yu didn't care about the Crown Prince's affairs or Yuan Shen's past.

She smiled and snuggled into his arms. Even though they hadn't known each other for long, she felt a sense of security in his embrace.

"My husband, I want to build a very, very big garden. Let's buy a farm in the suburbs and plant lots and lots of flowers."

"Okay, I'll arrange for people to plant lots and lots of flowers inside. After all, my wife is a fairy, so of course she should live in a sea of ​​flowers."

Tang Yu used to not make any requests, but now that they've opened their hearts to each other, she feels she can boldly make many requests.

She had wanted a huge garden for a long time, but she had never succeeded, neither in the 21st century nor in the apocalypse.

Now she can finally tend to her flowers and plants in peace and live in her own garden.

"Madam, are you tired? Go and rest for a while."

“I want to rest, but I don’t think you want to rest.”

These words made Yuan Shenxin laugh.

"It's because Madam can't forget what just happened, but it's all the Crown Prince's fault."

"Yes, it's all the Crown Prince's fault."

After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Tang Yu smiled and pressed her face against the other person's neck, then raised her head and kissed the other person's chin.

"In the future, if any woman approaches you outside, you must coldly refuse her and let them see Lord Yuan's ruthlessness, which is even more frightening than the Crown Prince."

"I forgot to tell you something, Madam. I am gentle in front of you, but many officials outside hate me when I speak, because they feel ashamed when I do."

Tang Yu imagined Yuan Shen's sharp tongue in public and found it inexplicably funny.

"You should treat all women who are close to you the same way from now on."

"Fine, let all the women outside hate me!"

These words prompted Tang Yu to huff and complain. She lay on top of Yuan Shen, a hint of dissatisfaction on her lips.

"No, I like your face. The reason other women hate you is because your face is ruined. Their liking you proves I have good taste!"

Yuan Shen felt his heart melt. He lowered his head and whispered sweet nothings in his wife's ear, his voice full of tenderness.

Don't worry, I only like you!

Tang Yu was so emboldened by this display of tenderness that she became even more demanding.

She straddled his lap and gently bit him.

"I know you just deliberately left marks on my neck; this is just reciprocity!"

"Jiaojiao, if you keep going like this, don't blame me later!"

"Come on, do you think I'm afraid of you!"

Can a man tolerate this kind of provocation? Of course not.

The two of them burst into laughter and started joking around on the carpet.

Chapter 33: Starry Sky 33

Much later, after both of them had two children, a son and a daughter, and after the third prince ascended the throne.

One day, Yuan Shen, who had already become one of the Three Dukes, was kept behind by the Emperor.

"Minister Yuan, what's the meaning of resigning and returning to your hometown? You are a pillar of the court, and you are only thirty-five years old. Are you resigning at this time because you want to retire at home? Isn't it too early?"

Yuan Shen remembered that he had been busy with official duties all year last year, and then he collapsed due to stomach problems, which made his young wife angry.

"Your Majesty, since you ascended the throne five years ago, I have devoted almost all my energy to the court. Over the past few years, I have worked diligently, but my health has deteriorated significantly."

I am resigning now only to recuperate. There are many talented young people in the court today.

"The fact that we old men remain in the court only hinders the young talents from being appreciated and promoted by the Emperor. We might as well go home."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ziduan was speechless.

If someone who is thirty-five years old calls himself an old man, then what about an emperor who is in his thirties?

"You're really something else. I bet it's your wife who made you resign and take a break. Are you that afraid of upsetting your wife? Minister Yuan, everyone says you're henpecked. Aren't you ashamed?"

Yuan Shen was not ashamed of being mocked by the emperor; on the contrary, he felt proud.

"Your Majesty, those who spread these rumors are simply jealous of the deep affection between my wife and me."

Those couples who are not on good terms always feel that all couples in this world should be in a superior-subordinate relationship, and that wives should obey their husbands' orders every day and should not have their own ideas.

I think these people are completely clueless and don't understand the meaning of respect between husband and wife.

My wife cares for me, loves me, and respects me. She never asks me to resign from my post and return home; she only asks me to respect my own body.

But I want to rest and recuperate, and spend time with my family.

Wen Ziduan was not only speechless at this display of affection, but also felt that she had been mocked.

Because he felt that women in this world should be honest, virtuous, generous, and follow the rules, and should not have too many ideas. These words were clearly directed at him.

"I remember that Yuan Sikong used to be quite fond of Madam Huo, but I never expected that he and his current wife would be so loving."

"Yuan Sikong's change of heart is remarkably swift. If he encounters a new beauty in the future, your wife will likely have to experience firsthand the bitterness of a husband's fickle affections."

It has to be said that Wen Ziduan, who was provoked, spoke recklessly today. He shouldn't have said such things; he was probably too provoked today.

Yuan Shen naturally felt quite unlucky after hearing this.

Don't think he doesn't know; during every palace banquet, the emperor's eyes would steal glances at his wife several times. He's had enough of that already.

If you can't have it, you hope others can't have it either.

Ugh, what bad luck.

"Your Majesty might as well spend your whole life to see if I will grow old with my wife and live a loving life together."

Looking at Yuan Shen's confident eyes, Wen Ziduan suddenly felt that he was really funny today, so he waved his hand.

"Fine, I've approved your resignation. Now get out of here and don't ever come to get in my way again!"

"I thank you, Your Majesty!"

When Tang Yu learned that Yuan Shen had completely resigned from his official post, the two of them had already gone to a manor in the suburbs to recuperate.

She thought Yuan Shen had just taken a leave of absence, until Yuan Shen told the truth after the two had stayed there for a few days.

"Husband, resigning from your official post at such a young age, isn't this retirement a bit too early?"

Yuan Shen's goal since childhood was to become one of the Three Dukes and support his family.

Now that he has accomplished this, his goals have naturally shifted to other things.

"I don't want to regret when I'm old and gray that I didn't spend more time with my family and wife when I was young."

Let's go out and travel while we're still young.

Actually, my wife clearly wanted to go out and travel, but because of her good intentions, she has stayed at home. I also long to travel the world with her!

That's not to say I love going out that much; the essence of a homebody is staying at home.

However, people have inherent flaws. Staying at home for a year is acceptable, but staying at home for two years is deadly.

Tang Yu's personality is such that if she stays at home for a year or two, she wants to go on a long trip to relax.

Just like modern people want to travel to a different place every year to change their mood, this is just a normal part of human nature.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shen noticed this.

"No regrets?"

Yuan Shen held his wife's hand tightly and kissed it with a smile.

"Of course I don't regret it. Doesn't Madam enjoy exploring different flowers, plants, and trees around the world? Let's go on a long journey."

"it is good!"
