Children of Loulan

Chapter 162 Wedding Night

Baier's worries were exactly what Hanguli was worried about, and she was once the king's beloved, so deep down in her heart, she felt that she was completely unworthy of having such an outstanding man from Loulan.

Hanguli looked around and her eyes suddenly fell on a lounge chair by the window. She pointed at the lounge chair and said to Bayer, "I'll rest there tonight!"

Bayer followed Hanguli's line of sight and asked in surprise, "But Miss, this recliner is fine for a short nap, but if you sleep here every day, how can your body handle it?"

Hanguli thought for a moment and replied, "King Xuan is still in a coma. Today is to celebrate his wedding, so I have to stay here. Maybe after tonight, the queen will arrange some other place for me to live!"

Bayer asked doubtfully, "Miss, why are you so sure that the queen will arrange other accommodation for you?"

Hanguli patiently explained: "Because the queen hopes that King Xuan can rest and recuperate without being disturbed. And if I stay here, it may affect his recovery."

Seeing Bayer nodding as if she understood, Hanguli gently touched her hair to comfort her.

At this moment, the aroma of food entered her nose, which made Hanguli, who was already a little hungry, stand up subconsciously and want to find the source of the delicious food. Before she took two steps, she heard the door creak open from the outside.

It was Dal who came in with a few maids carrying food. Bayer said happily, "Wow, today's meal is so sumptuous! The food hasn't even come in yet, but the aroma has already come in!"

Hearing Bayer's words, Hanguli was stunned for a moment. She looked at Bayer blankly and asked, "What did you just say?"

Baier thought she was too hungry, so he smiled and replied, "Miss, are you too hungry? I said the food hasn't arrived yet, but the aroma has already arrived!"

"The food hasn't arrived yet, but the aroma has already arrived!" Hanguli muttered to herself, and in an instant she suddenly realized why she felt that seeing the eldest prince just now was a little strange! So that's why, she sighed in her heart,

The strange thing is that the smell is wrong, because according to common sense, King Xuan was seriously injured and poisoned, so his room should be filled with a strong smell of medicine. However, since they entered the room, they did not smell much medicine. If this is just the outer room, and a lot of incense was lit to cover up the smell of medicine, it seems to make sense. But when she walked into the inner room just now, she found that although there was some smell of medicine in the inner room, the smell was not right. According to the injuries reported by King Xuan, there should be medicine for treating serious injuries and detoxification soup. But what she smelled just now was just the smell of ordinary medicine!

Therefore, Hanguli had two guesses in her heart: either the King Xuan was not seriously injured at all, and he deliberately pretended to be injured to confuse the murderer; or he was indeed seriously injured, but someone blocked the medicine for his injury in order to kill him. However, who would have such great ability to hide it from the Queen Mother and the King, bribe the imperial doctors and everyone in the King Xuan's mansion? And if the incident happened, it would be a serious crime that would exterminate the entire clan.

So she thought about it and felt that the first possibility would be more likely. After all, it would be much easier for Prince Xuan to bribe the imperial physician himself.

At this time, Dar had already arranged the food, but Hanguli was still immersed in her own thoughts. Dar and Baier saw that Hanguli was in a daze again. After looking at each other, they walked to Hanguli curiously and looked at her from top to bottom.

At this time, Hanguli just collected her thoughts and looked up to see the two sisters surrounding her. She asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is there something strange on me?"

Dahl and Bayer shook their heads at the same time. Bayer asked curiously, "Miss, what happened to you today? Why are you always in a daze? Are you worried about something?"

Hanguli chuckled and explained, "It's nothing. Don't think too much. It's just that too many changes happened in this day, and I'm a little overwhelmed."

Bayer nodded to show his understanding: "I see. Don't worry too much, miss. No matter what, we will always be by your side."

Hanguli looked at them gratefully, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Dar, Baier. By the way, let's eat quickly, otherwise the food will get cold."

Dal smiled and nodded, responding, "Okay, miss. Let's start eating." After that, she helped Hanguli walk to the dining table and sit down, then she and Bayer sat next to Hanguli and began to enjoy a sumptuous dinner.

Because they were used to eating together in Yuexiju, they ate at the same table at this moment. They ate delicious dishes in the house, while the princes and ministers outside were sent back by the king and queen after a simple meal!

Originally, the queen wanted to visit King Xuan before returning to the palace, but the king said that it was unlucky to have one's room broken into on the wedding night, so she had no choice but to go back to the palace with the king. However, she couldn't sleep all night after returning to the palace because she knew that the wedding was fake, so she was very worried about her son's safety!

After Hanguli and her two servants finished their meal, she asked Dal to make the couch for her so that she could sleep on it. Bayer said he wanted to stay with her, but she refused because she guessed that King Xuan was faking his injury and that he would probably have something to do tonight. Bayer had good hearing and she was afraid that she would accidentally hear something she shouldn't hear and that would harm her.

"Miss, I'll go down and rest first. If you need anything, just call me," Bayer said after packing up.

"Well, you go and have a rest, Dal is all you need here," Hanguli nodded and said.

"Then I will withdraw first." Bayer said and turned to leave.

Hanguli looked at the room full of red silk and felt a little emotional. She had never expected that she would marry into Prince Xuan's mansion by accident, and in the name of bringing good luck.

"Miss, what are you thinking about?" Dal asked when he saw Hanguli in a daze.

"It's nothing, I just feel that this all happened too suddenly, with two identities changing within one day." Hanguli said after she came to her senses.

"Yes, but since you're already married, let's just look forward. No matter what, it won't be worse than three years!" Dal comforted.

"Well, but it's good to have you here." Hanguli said with relief.

Dar held Hanguli's hand tightly and said with a firm look: "Miss, if it weren't for you, my sister and I would have been dead long ago. Besides, apart from you, how many people would really care about the lives of servants like us? So no matter what happens, my sister and I will always be by your side and will never leave you!"

Looking at Dal's excited expression, Hanguli couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, Dal, I know what you mean. Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt. The three of us must live well." After saying that, she gently patted Dal's hand.

Dar nodded gratefully. Hanguli glanced at the inner room and continued, "Well, you've worked hard all day. Go and rest early."

Dal nodded, said "yes", then turned and walked out, but when he reached the door he suddenly stopped, looked back at Hanguli deeply, then slowly left.
