Sheng Xiyan crawled into his arms, sobbing and saying, "I've been waiting for you, afraid you wouldn't come."

Xuan Ling gently stroked her back and whispered soothingly, "Why wouldn't I come? I know you're worried about tomorrow's trip to Yuqing Mountain, so I'll definitely come and talk to you about it and put your mind at ease."

Sheng Xiyan raised her tearful eyes and asked in a low voice, "How did you plan this? Is it safe?"

She reached out to help him take off his cloak, but Xuan Ling held her hand and said with a smile, "Don't do it, I'll take it off myself."

When Sheng Xiyan saw him take off his cloak, she wanted to sit in his arms, but Xuan Ling coaxed her, "I'm cold. Let's warm up by the fire. I'll hold you when I'm warm."

Sheng Xiyan refused to give in and started throwing a tantrum in grievance: "I want you to hold me right now!"

Xuan Ling was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

I know she is so anxious because she is worried that something might happen to him tomorrow.

"Okay, I'll hold you." He gently pulled her to sit on his lap.

He lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of her hair, then soothed her, "Baby, what kind of facial cream did you put on today? It smells so good. Let me give you a kiss."

Sheng Xiyan smiled through her tears, took out a black jade ring from a small brocade bag, and handed it to him: "I asked the Decoration Bureau to make this for me, try it on."

Xuan Ling took the ring and put it on his hand. The size was exactly right.

He noticed the inscription on the inner circle and said with a smile, "Could it be that Yanyan inscribed 'Eternal Love'?"

When I shone it in the candlelight, I saw the four words "Long Live the Saint", and my heart was suddenly filled with a warm feeling that made me want to cry.

Recalling that when Sheng Xiyan asked to leave the palace last year, she said to him, "Xiyan only wishes the emperor a long life." Now she has engraved these four words on her ring, which shows her feelings for him.

Xuan Ling kissed her forehead. He understood her. Compared to love, what she wanted most at this moment was his safety.

He held the back of her neck with his big hand, rested his forehead against hers, and whispered, "Having Yanyan is like finding the most precious treasure in the world. Thank you for loving me like this and treating me as your man, not the emperor."

Sheng Xiyan lay on his chest and whispered softly: "Xuanlang, I love you."

Xuan Ling lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, saying softly, "Yan Yan, I love you too. I love you, you love me, and we will be together forever. Call me husband."

"Husband..."

"Scream a few more times, I like to hear it."

"Husband, husband, husband, husband, husband, husband... I'm out of breath..."

"Baby is so good."

Xuan Ling leaned close to her ear and whispered the plan for tomorrow.

Finally, he whispered, "Don't worry anymore, right? The troops are all in ambush, there will be no problem. Just wait for me in the palace."

Sheng Xiyan nodded and hugged his waist tightly...

After the morning court the next day.

The imperial carriage set off, and the Jinwu Army escorted him to Yuqing Mountain for hunting.
