Reborn to Become A Queen: The Real Heiress's Comeback
Chapter 330: Could It Be That the Regent King Is Unfit?

Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Could It Be That the Regent King Is Unfit?

It wasn’t until they returned to the Regent Prince Mansion that Zhan Lan took a bath and lay down to sleep in bed.

She knew that nothing would happen tonight, so she went to sleep.

Mu Yan lay beside her, listening to her steady breathing and gazing at her with burning eyes.

As he lay next to Zhan Lan, with every breath, he longed for her.

Mu Yan’s Adam’s apple rolled as he went into the inner room and doused his body’s desires with cool water.

When Zhan Lan woke up in the morning, Dugu Yan came to visit.

Mu Yan did not disturb them and found an excuse to go and play chess in the courtyard.

Dugu Yan noticed that after marrying, Zhan Lan’s face didn’t have that girlish look from before marriage, and even seemed somewhat fatigued.

Seeing no one around, she wanted to have some private chat with her.

Curiously she asked, "Zhan Lan, what’s wrong? People say newlyweds are incredibly joyous, but you seem downcast?"

Zhan Lan’s lips curled up as she spoke, "Who said that, I’m fine!"

The more Dugu Yan looked, the more she felt something was off and carefully inquired, "Could it be the Regent King is not capable?"

Zhan Lan’s cheeks flared red, and she glared at Dugu Yan, "Nonsense!"

Dugu Yan leaned back in her chair and said, "Apart from that, you two don’t have the sticky, sweet look of newlyweds. Remember that guy from the mountain who got married? He was like a male dog, bed creaking day and night nonstop!"

While talking, she sized up Zhan Lan, "You don’t even have a single love bite, tell me, is the Prince all bark and no bite?"

Zhan Lan, with her face full of embarrassment at the blunt words, said, "That’s not the case."

Dugu Yan thought of another possibility, "Could it be the Regent King is impotent?"

She quickly lifted Zhan Lan’s sleeve and saw the intact virginity mark. Zhan Lan punched her in the arm and said with authoritative tone, "Dugu Yan, how dare you!"

Dugu Yan fell to her knees with a thud, thick-faced she said, "I really hadn’t expected to guess right, I’m sorry, I promise to keep my lips sealed!"

Zhan Lan snorted coldly, "Get up!"

She couldn’t just say Mu Yan was incapable. If Dugu Yan inadvertently blabbed, it would hurt Mu Yan’s pride.

Whether Mu Yan could perform or not, she was already married to him.

The issue now was not whether he could perform, but that he simply didn’t touch her at all.

This threw her into deep self-doubt, in her previous life Si Jun didn’t touch her on purpose.

Mu Yan not touching her now made her feel a failure as a wife.

Zhan Lan stuttered: "He has no issues, but ever since our wedding night was interrupted by the thieves, he hasn’t touched me again."

Dugu Yan clutched Zhan Lan’s hand, "My dear sister, I understand. The Prince must have been frightened. The brothers on the mountain say that men must not be startled during that time, otherwise, it will cause a psychological shadow that they can’t escape, even leading to impotence!"

Zhan Lan looked at Dugu Yan in surprise, thinking there was such a thing.

Dugu Yan patted Zhan Lan’s hand saying, "Don’t worry, dear sister. Is it possible that you never take the initiative?"

Zhan Lan nodded, "How can I initiate such a thing?"

Dugu Yan smiled slyly at Zhan Lan, "My brothers go to the brothel for women, do you know why they like the girls from the brothel so much?"

Zhan Lan blurted out, "Uninhibited?"

"And you’ve got to have skills!" Dugu Yan whispered a lot into Zhan Lan’s ear, causing Zhan Lan’s cheeks to redden bit by bit.

She pushed Dugu Yan away, looked her up and down, and asked, "Have you already..."

Dugu Yan said snobbishly, "That, not yet. So far, no man has made this lady particularly want to sleep with him!"

Zhan Lan remembered her past life, where despite Dugu Yan boasting every day about wanting to bed the man she liked, she died a virgin.

In their past life, they won the battles, but they all died as well.

Fortunately, in this life Dugu Yan could dare to love and hate, being true to herself.

Dugu Yan instructed: "Sister Zhan Lan, use the techniques I told you to erode his will little by little, if he still remains unmoved, then there’s truly an issue!"

Zhan Lan looked down, her gaze lingering for a while before looking at Dugu Yan, "Everything is still good in the mountains, right?"

Dugu Yan replied with a smile, "The brothers are all doing very well!"

Zhan Lan nodded, "Good."

Dugu Yan grasped Zhan Lan’s hand and said, "Recently, you just focus on getting your brother-in-law sorted, we’ll take care of the rest, no need to worry!"

Zhan Lan gave her a white eye, urging her, "Okay, now hurry off!"

After Dugu Yan left, Zhan Lan went downstairs and spotted Mu Yan playing chess alone, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Mu Yan put down the white chess piece and looked at Zhan Lan, "Sure, it’s getting cooler, there are some new cloaks in, let’s have a look."

Zhan Lan smiled and nodded in agreement.

She now felt that she had already become like siblings with Mu Yan.

Just thinking of harboring improper thoughts towards a brother, Zhan Lan felt uncomfortable all over.

Mu Yan rarely held her hand, and the two of them rode in a carriage together, arriving on the street.

In Jinxiu Workshop, upon the arrival of Mu Yan and Zhan Lan, the Shopkeeper personally attended to them, warmly and respectfully.

Mu Yan stayed close to Zhan Lan’s side, not leaving her for a moment. Remembering Dugu Yan’s words, Zhan Lan took a black cloak in her hand, circled behind Mu Yan, and intimately tied it on him in front of her.

The unique scent of Zhan Lan wafted into Mu Yan’s nose, he swallowed hard, and Zhan Lan, pressing against him, said: "It suits you very well."

Her warm breath sprayed on Mu Yan’s neck, causing him to instinctively take a step back.

Zhan Lan’s hand stiffened, wondering why it wasn’t like what she imagined, as Mu Yan actually stepped back.

Mu Yan’s ears turned red, he awkwardly said, "Lan’er, today is for selecting a cloak for you."

Zhan Lan’s eyes gradually grew dimmer, Mu Yan must have used some sort of spell on her, otherwise how could he manipulate her emotions so easily.

"I’ll look some more!" Zhan Lan took the initiative to grab his hand.

Mu Yan responded by firmly grasping her hand, a smile curling at the corner of his lips.

"Wait for me, I have something to do downstairs," Mu Yan said, looking somewhere.

"Okay."

Zhan Lan also wanted to secretly buy a cloak for Mu Yan. Just as he went down, she was about to speak with the nearby Shopkeeper when suddenly she heard a delicate voice.

"Princess!"

Zhan Lan turned around to see Bai Lu, with her maidservants, slowly saluting her.

Bai Lu saw that Zhan Lan was looking at her expressionlessly, and lightly slapped her own cheek saying, "It’s my fault, I should have called you ’Imperial Aunt’!"

Zhan Lan smiled perfunctorily, and Bai Lu tried to make further conversation. Zhan Lan really didn’t want to deal with her and lifted her foot to leave.

But Bai Lu grabbed onto Zhan Lan’s sleeve, her eyes shifting as she said, "Imperial Aunt, there are some things, as a niece-in-law, I’m not sure if I should speak of them?"

"Since you know you shouldn’t say, then shut up!"

Zhan Lan dropped this line and was about to leave, but Bai Lu said urgently, "Imperial Aunt, look downstairs."
