The Princess and Her Rough-Rider Khan

Petite Princess VS Rough Khan On their wedding day, Yelu Yan told Li Xianyun that apart from affection, he could provide her with endless wealth and honor. After the marriage, he indeed kept his promise, cherishing her in the palm of his hand. Little did he know, the more he cherished her, the deeper she burrowed into his heart, right to the very top. Not long after the political marriage with the Khitans, Li Xianyun gradually noticed earth-shattering changes around her: Initially, the commoners who disliked her began to worship her as a deity... The court officials accusing her of bewitching their lord were now pleading with her to consummate the marriage with the Khan... The most perplexing of all was her husband in name; wasn’t he the one who said he wouldn't give her emotional affection? Why was he always following her around? Little theater scene 1: One day, Yelu Yan cornered Li Xianyun against the wall. “Why are you avoiding this Khan?” “They say you might have taken a liking to your servant.” “Remove ‘might’, isn’t it obvious enough from how this Khan acts?” “But you said you wouldn’t give your servant emotional affection.” Yelu Yan held his forehead; he had indeed said too many foolish things. “The Han people always say that one should start a family and then establish a career; clearly, the two are not in conflict.” Little theater scene 2: The sun had risen high, yet Yelu Yan was still clinging to Li Xianyun. “Get up quickly, I have to leave. There are patients on the street waiting for my consultation, the good fields to the west need irrigation, the homestead plots in the east need measuring, and I have to oversee the silk reeling and dyeing... Uh...” “Your husband is a patient, don’t you care for him?” Li Xianyun looked at the man tough enough to rival ten bulls and was utterly speechless.

262 What do you take your husband for? (First update)

Li Xianyun suddenly took an interest and sweetly smiled as she encircled Yelu Yan's neck, "Husband, then tell me, what did you feel when you first saw me?"

"Not annoying," Yelu Yan replied candidly.

Not being annoying was already the highest praise he could give to a woman.

Li Xianyun's eyes curved into a smile, "Husband, you really aren't good at making people happy."

Yelu Yan was taken aback. He had honed his mettle in the military, rough and rugged throughout, not at all like those gentlemen from the noble families of Houtang who had been nurtured in literature and ink.

"Then what should your husband have said?"

"You should have said, 'When I first saw you, I was struck by your beauty, hopelessly falling in love...'"

Li Xianyun began in all seriousness, but as she continued, she couldn't go on. She rested her head on Yelu Yan's shoulder and let out a light laugh.

Yelu Yan laughed along, "Is your husband too clumsy with words?"

"Not too bad. You're quite good at kissing."
