My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 191 Consecrator's Courtesy

"Oh? So, tell me, how did he deceive you?" Su Hua's tone grew solemn.

Gu Lan was the Queen's husband, and from Ming Yue's demeanor, if there were any issues with him and his youngest student, it could lead to complications in the palace...

Su Hua hesitated to entertain such thoughts!

Princess Ming Yue was about to blurt out but paused abruptly.

She couldn't possibly mention that she was tricked into believing Gu Lan was a "Rapist" during her bathing, as it would lead to unimaginable misunderstandings...

"Well... he's just a bad person. Teacher, you mustn't trust him. He often deceives my sister!"

Ming Yue, resembling a naive bunny, seemed determined to drive Gu Lan away.

Technically, she wasn't wrong in calling him deceitful. Gu Lan frequently tricks her sister into treats and drinks...

Gu Lan shrugged at his innocent sister-in-law.

Your journey continues on empire

Unexpectedly...

"Ouch!"

Su Hua swiftly gave her a light tap on the head, leaving Princess Ming Yue looking woefully at her teacher.

The latter, however, spoke sternly, "From childhood, I've taught you to prioritize filial piety. Now that the late Emperor has passed, your elder sister is akin to your mother. Gu Lan is your sister's husband; you must respect him just as much, and refrain from being disrespectful!"

Ming Yue's eyes widened.

She couldn't fathom how Gu Lan managed to sway Su Hua into speaking so highly of him.

Yet, she dared not disobey Su Hua's words, especially when she noticed Gu Lan's ambiguous smile.

Sulkily, Ming Yue murmured, "So, being a Consecrator at Tianji Pavilion makes you so impressive? Humph, if I could only beat you..."

Though her voice was low, Su Hua, with his Immortal Realm cultivation, heard every word.

He was momentarily stunned! Then, he fixed his gaze on his innocent disciple, excitedly asking, "What did you say, Gu Lan... Prince Jingyang is the Consecrator at Tianji Pavilion?!"

Ming Yue was puzzled, "Teacher, aren't you the one who made me respect him because of his identity? Don't you know he's the Consecrator at Tianji Pavilion?"

Su Hua seemed bewildered.

He turned to Gu Lan, "Ming Yue... is what she said true?"

Gu Lan, intending to disclose the matter, nodded in confirmation.

Su Hua, lost in thought, was astonished, "No wonder you, young man, have such high cultivation despite your age. I thought I could intimidate you with my aura to stand up for the Queen. Little did I know..."

"Madam, where did you go today?"

Gu Lan sat down, noticing a table full of delicacies, some of which had cooled.

Mu Yuyan gave him a slight glare, "Under the sky, there is no land that isn't the king's soil. I won't tell you; you didn't even tell me where you went today, making me wait for so long."

Gu Lan smiled, "I went to see my in-laws."

"In-laws?" Mu Yuyan was puzzled.

"Which in-laws?"

Her parents had passed away, leaving only Ming Yue, her sister, and herself. If it were Ming Yue, Gu Lan wouldn't mention it so seriously.

"Of course, it's Madam's teacher, Grand Tutor Su!"

Mu Yuyan blushed slightly, recalling Su Hua's teachings.

It was true that he was akin to family, for a day's teacher is a lifetime's father.

"Why did you go to see your teacher?"

Gu Lan's smile deepened, "Oh, just a chance encounter. But I've gained the teacher's approval, and he trusts me enough to entrust you to me."

"Hah! Well done..." Mu Yuyan's eyes were filled with tender smiles.

With Mr. Gu's capabilities, it was expected that the teacher would be thoroughly impressed.

Suddenly, her expression changed, and she covered her mouth, feeling nauseous.

Gu Lan quickly leaned in, helping her soothe her discomfort.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

Mu Yuyan shook her head, her complexion not improving.

"It's nothing, just feeling nauseous and queasy."

"Well! It's probably a normal pregnancy reaction. You've just conceived our child, and for the next three months, you might experience some reactions. You've worked hard, Madam," Gu Lan said, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

Mu Yuyan smiled softly, "There's nothing hard about it. For our child, it's nothing."

She caressed her soft, flat abdomen with maternal gentleness.

Gu Lan felt reassured.

Their child, nurtured by the Chaos-Origin Fruit, already showed signs of vitality.

He smiled contentedly.

Their child would surely be born healthy, and with its terrifying talent, it would astonish countless old monsters on the continent!
