Rong Yu couldn't resist Nan Xi's insistence and stayed, so the four girls who were supposed to stay here to serve were naturally dismissed.

Nan Xi undressed in front of Rong Yu, ignoring the emotions in her eyes that were always cold and indifferent.

The water temperature in the bathtub was just right. Rong Yu lay on the edge of the bathtub, closed his eyes, and massaged her neck and shoulders with his slender fingers. The right strength and moderate water temperature made her feel drowsy, so that her voice was a bit lazy like a cat: "Rong Yu."

"Yeah." Rong Yu's eyes were soft to the bone, but his voice always retained a bit of calmness, "Want to sleep?"

Nan Xi hummed, and said casually: "Actually, it's okay. Do you want to come down and take a bath?"

Rong Yu was silent, and then laughed softly: "You wash first."

Nan Xi opened her eyes and said: "You want to sleep?" Opening her eyes, she turned her head to look at him: "Is the prince afraid that he can't be Liu Xiahui?"

"No." Rong Yu shook his head with a smile in his eyes, "I have things to deal with later with Qin Shu and Yun Ting, so there is no rush to take a bath."

"There should be nothing wrong with taking a bath and changing clothes before dealing with the business. In fact, you are just worried that you will not be able to control yourself if you come down to take a bath with me." Nan Xi asked, her eyebrows seemed to be provocative, "Will the prince suddenly turn into a beast?"

Rong Yu was silent for a while after hearing this, and looked at her without saying a word, his eyes heavy.

"You are actually more tired than me in the past two days of traveling." Nan Xi straightened up and looked at him with some heartache, "Come down and take a bath together, I don't mind, what are you afraid of? Anyway, we will get married in a few days, isn't it just a wedding ceremony?"

Rong Yu didn't say anything, and her invitation was hard to resist.

Nan Xi's slender body sank into the water, revealing only her white jade neck and beautiful face, but this scene is obviously a great test for any normal man.

"Your subordinates have already called me Madam." Nan Xi said, frowning slightly, "But why not call me Princess? Because the power of the Imperial Capital Regent Palace and Jiuxiao Pavilion is separate?"

Rong Yu hummed.

"Why do you want me to marry as the daughter of Jiuxiao Pavilion?" Nan Xi looked at him, and actually had the answer in her heart, "Do you want me to become a woman envied by the whole world?"

Rong Yu took her hand and kissed her palm: "It should be said that you want me to become a man envied by the whole world."

Hmm?

Nan Xi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing: "You, the real master of Jiuxiao Pavilion, are you going to become a live-in son-in-law just because you want to marry a wife?"

"I will become a live-in son-in-law of Dongling in the future." Rong Yu said in a gentle voice, his eyes burning, "When that day comes, I will have to rely on Madam's protection."

Nan Xi's heart felt like it was scratched by a cat's claw, numb and numb, and a warm throbbing surged up.

How could she not understand Rong Yu's intentions?

In recent years, the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty only knew that her mother came from a merchant family, but they did not know how big her mother's merchant family was. Even in front of her father, her mother never revealed her true identity. Of course, her mother's situation was special, and the 16-year agreement was always full of variables. Even from the perspective of caring about her husband, concealing it was the best decision.

So everyone thought that her mother had no other relatives except her husband and daughter.

This time, her mother directly divorced her father and left with all her dowry. With the protection of the regent, her father and the emperor could not easily check her mother's background, but Nan Xi's identity as a merchant girl was well known.

The dignitaries in the imperial capital always liked to judge people by appearance and family background as the standard for judging a person, so there were always people who made a fuss about the origin of a merchant girl and criticized her wantonly, saying that Nan Xi was not worthy of the regent.

What's more, after marrying the regent, Nan Xi really joined the royal family and became a royal woman.

As a prince of the royal bloodline, Rong Yu will have more banquets and activities for the royal family in the future, either a banquet at this place or a flower viewing at that place, either the Queen Mother's birthday or the Emperor's birthday, and some festivals that require the royal family to reunite in the palace... In short, there will be more activities and banquets, and Nan Xi will have more opportunities to deal with those people.

If she is always ridiculed and mocked by others for being a merchant's daughter, it would not be a pleasant thing. Of course, after becoming the Regent Princess, there must be few people who dare to embarrass her openly, but sometimes she will inevitably encounter some stupid and ignorant people.

If Nan Xi marries from Jiuxiao Pavilion this time, the wedding will definitely be a sensation in the world. Not to mention the powerful people in the Great Zhou, even people from other countries will not dare to look down on her in the future.

After understanding Rong Yu's thoughts, Nan Xi didn't know what to say.

In fact, she never cared about how others evaluated her identity. Even when she liked Gu Qingshu in her previous life, she never thought that merchant girls should be inferior to others. Her mother also made a living by her own ability. Why should she be looked down upon?

Which of those nobles who seemed dignified and elegant, and bright and clear, did not need to eat, drink, defecate and urinate?

Which of eating, drinking, defecation and urination did not require silver?

Are they immortals who are not stained by the fireworks of the world?

However, no matter how she thought, she could not change the vulgar ideas of the world, just like now, whether she needed it or not, she was still moved by the thoughts that Rong Yu poured into her.

"Rong Yu." Nan Xi's cheek was against Rong Yu's palm, and her voice was soft, "Did I do too many good things in my previous life, saved the people of the world, and accumulated too many blessings by doing good deeds, so I was lucky to meet you in this life?"

Rong Yu didn't say anything, but after hearing this, his eyes were somewhat deep and unfathomable.

"Rong Yu."

"Not you." Rong Yu looked down at her.

"Hmm?" Nan Xi looked up, "What did you say?"

"I'm the lucky one." His voice was full of suppressed emotions, "I'm lucky to have met you."

Nan Xi felt that his words were a bit strange, as if she was some peerless fairy.

He was obviously the one with a noble status, the one with strong ability, and the one who could easily get three thousand beauties.

In this world, as long as he wanted, what kind of stunning beauty could he not get?

However, from his words, it sounded as if she was some peerless treasure.

Nan Xi didn't dislike this feeling. On the contrary, she felt that no woman in the world could resist the feeling of being held in the palm of someone's hand and pampered, but she still felt strange.

"Rong Yu." She held her cheek, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and began to use her wild imagination, "Do you think we loved each other in the last life, and then for some reason it didn't end well, so you are so good to me in this life?"
