Chapter 1110 Calling Him Husband is Fine

Chapter 178: Imperial Decree Forbids MarriageChapter 1110 Calling You Husband Is Fine

East Palace, Laiyi Hall.

The name "Fenglaiyi" is auspicious, and the Laiyi Hall has always been the main hall where the crown prince's consort resided.

The furnishings and decorations here are quite extraordinary, most likely not arranged by Li Chen himself, but rather set up during the time of his previous imperial concubine.

The previous Crown Princess, who was also the original wife of the Great Emperor and the genuine Empress, Li Chen's biological mother, had passed away over a decade ago.

Li Chen's soul transmigrated, and he didn't feel any connection to his previous life.

But often, some places the original person frequented and things they frequently used, Li Chen subconsciously resisted them.

For example, this Laiyi Hall.

This is Li Chen's first time coming to the ceremonial hall.

When Li Chen arrived, Su Jinpa was reading a book by the window.

Just as the maidservant came over with a bowl of medicine.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

The maidservant, upon seeing Li Chen, immediately knelt down and paid her respects.

Seen Li Chen looking at the bowl of black soup medicine, the quick-witted maid proactively explained: "The Crown Princess caught a cold two days ago, and I was just about to go in and deliver the medicine."

Li Chen nodded, same as himself. The heavy rain on their wedding day...

"Give it to me."

After he had served the congee, Li Chen instructed the maid to retire. Then, holding the medicine bowl, he entered the bedroom.

Hearing the sound, Su Jinpa looked up and saw it was Li Chen. She froze for a moment before awkwardly standing up to bow.

“I... I have seen the Empress...”

"No need."

Li Chen waved his hand, stopping Su Jinping's bow and greetings.

"Knowing your personality is tranquil and you dislike these formalities, from now on we can address each other by our names in private. There's no need for those polite gestures we show to outsiders."

These words warmed Su Jinpa's heart.

She became the Crown Princess out of necessity, and her feelings for Li Chen were unclear to her.

Better than a friend, perhaps, but not quite love.

But she couldn't resist the outcome either.

It's not a TV series or novel, where there are so many rebellious female leads who disregard their family, life and death, and the fate of their families to pursue self-fulfillment

Wake up, it's unrealistic.

Reality is like Su Jinping, prepared to accept whatever comes your way.

At this moment, the warmth Li Chen could give her was enough to be ten times more comforting than anything else, even if it was just a single word.

However, just as Su Jinpa felt warm and fuzzy in her heart, ready to reward Li Chen with a smile, Li Chen's second sentence came.

"Or you can call me husband or hubby."

Although Su Jinpa didn't understand what her husband meant, with the words "husband" preceding them, it wasn't difficult for her to analyze the meaning of these two novel terms given her intelligence.

Seeing Su Jinpa's childish reaction, Li Chen chuckled and brought the bowl of medicine right up to her.

"Feeling under the weather Me too, I have a headache and stuffy nose, it's awful. Need to drink this quickly so I can feel better."

"My symptoms aren't as bad as yours."

Su Jinpa looked at the dark broth swirling in the porcelain bowl before him, his face etched with worry.

"Are you afraid of bitterness"

Li Chen seemed to have discovered a secret as he asked.

Su Jinpa was about to retort, but when she saw Li Chen produce a well-wrapped red bean cake out of thin air, like magic.

“I don't like those bitter medicines either, so I take this one. It works really well. You should try it.”

Li Chen took Su Jinpa's hand, spread her palm open, and placed the piece of date paste cake in her palm. Just as he was about to speak, He Kun's voice came from outside.

"Your Highness, Xu Wei requests an audience."ly got up from her bed and attended to Li Chen, helping him remove his clothes."I hear you went to see your mother again today" Li Chen asked casually.Zhao Rui whispered, "Mother is new to the capital...
