"The monkey should go to the sky to fish it out!"
"So..." The little guy looked up at Zhao Ying, "Mom, I'm going to go to the sky and get Hongqiao for you!"
As he said that, Shangguan Qingyue was about to stand up and go to heaven!
Zhao Ying pressed him on the leg in time, "No, no, no!"
Zhao Ying was startled and quickly explained, "Yuer, mortals can't go up to the sky. They will fall and die!"
Shangguan Qingyue was puzzled. "That's not right. Aunt Huai'an is also a mortal. Daddy said she could fly. She even demonstrated it, and she didn't fall to her death!"
Zhao Ying looked at Shangguan Shu in surprise. He had said such nonsense?
Receiving Zhao Ying's questioning gaze, Shangguan Shu was startled and frowned as he explained, "Daddy said that... to brag about your Aunt Huai'an. You can't climb up to the sky..."
Shangguan Shu was furious when he said that. He turned around and glared at Shangguan Chengjing, trying to divert the conflict. "Chengjing, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Shangguan Chengjing: ...
"Dad, don't blame Dadede. He didn't do it on purpose."
【That's just the way he is! 】
Shangguan Chengjing looked at his little sister with emotion. His father's love was cold, but his sister's love was warm.
"Yue'er doesn't want you to be so fierce because of me!"
Shangguan Chengjing's eyes were filled with tears.
"I'm so envious of Da Dede! He's so knowledgeable and knows everything. Unlike Yue'er, he doesn't even know how a monkey can catch the moon!"
Shangguan Chengjing raised his lips and was about to say "I will teach you in the future" when he was interrupted by Shangguan Qingyue.
The little guy huddled in his mother's arms, looking innocent, "Big Dad, you're not angry with Yue'er, are you?"
Shangguan Chengjing quickly waved his hands in denial, "No, no, how could Big Brother be angry with you? Big Brother loves you so much..."
Zhao Ying, who had been silent the whole time, looked at her eldest son's appearance of not wanting money and laughed. She should go back and arrange to marry Zhai Jingxuan as her daughter-in-law! If she changed to someone with bad intentions and scheming, her son would be sold out sooner or later, and she would still be counting money for others!
Zhao Ying felt so helpless that she wanted to laugh. Outside the carriage, Liang Su said again, "Princess, General, I will take you here..."
“Wow…wow…wow…”
【Whose child is crying so loudly? 】
Everyone's heart suddenly jumped when they heard the sound, and they held their breath, trying to catch the faint sound of a baby crying.
How could there be a baby crying in Dali, a deserted city?
unless……
【Could it be that the little sister has woken up? 】
Hearing the sound, Zhao Ying quickly opened the curtains. The crying became clearer and clearer, and the heavy breathing around her rose and fell, as if everyone was confused and expecting a miracle.
Zhao Ying said, "Let's go to the clinic!"
"yes!"
Everyone was waiting there. The infirmary was not far away. The imperial guards who had gone out to gather information soon returned and shouted from afar, "Alive! Alive!"
"Your Highness, the baby girl is alive!"
Zhao Ying's long-depressed heart was finally released.
I couldn't help but feel my eyes sore.
"Very good……"
She is a princess and also a mother.
She hoped that Dali would have an heir, and at the same time, she also hoped that the poor mother would get what she wished for and die in peace.
The mother died for her son, and fortunately, she really survived.
Shangguan Shu comforted her, "Dali, everything will be fine."
Zhao Ying nodded.
Outside the carriage, the soldiers were also very excited. Shangguan Shu asked Liang Su to take good care of the baby girl.
She is the last bloodline of Dali, a relic of a civilization, and more importantly... Zhao Ying's political achievement.
Half a month later, in the Golden Palace.
Emperor Jianxi's cold symptoms worsened and never healed. His originally plump jaw now tightened, his face became gloomy and dark, and his sharp eyes became unclear and difficult to distinguish.
The court was suspended for a month before, and Prince Ding was acting as regent. If all the officials had not jointly impeached Zhao Ying, Emperor Jianxi might not have attended the court.
Zhao Ying returned to the capital at night and entered the palace the next day. She had never heard that Emperor Jianxi was so seriously ill.
Emperor Jianxi was supported by Wu Yonggui, walking unsteadily. He sat on the dragon throne, took a deep breath, and looked listless and weak. He stared at the steps below with a dark look, "Cough, cough! Cough, cough ...
Wu Yonggui handed tea to Emperor Jianxi, "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"
At the foot of the stairs, all the civil and military officials in the court knelt on the ground, including Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying looked at Emperor Jianxi with a worried look on his face.
Civil and military officials were divided into several factions. One faction, headed by Shangguan Shu, believed that there was nothing wrong with Zhao Ying's move and that it would benefit future generations.
One faction, led by Zhao Xi, remained neutral and did not speak.
The rest, led by Prime Minister Yin and Grand Tutor Yang, believed that all the people in the world were His Majesty's subjects, and wanton slaughter was an unforgivable crime. They suggested that Emperor Jianxi severely punish Zhao Ying!
Prime Minister Yin and Grand Tutor Yang have always been at odds with each other, but this time they are united in hatred of the enemy, which is a surprising sight.
Prime Minister Yin spoke sharply, Grand Tutor Yang quoted from classics, Shangguan Shu debated with the scholars, and the entire court was in chaos.
Prime Minister Yin and Grand Tutor Yang were very excited. They had a history of fighting each other when they got angry, so they were very restrained this time. Since Shangguan Shu was a military general, they would definitely not be able to gain the upper hand in a fight.
Emperor Jianxi would occasionally cough heavily to calm the emotions of both sides, and then continue arguing. In the end, the voices of all the civil and military officials in the court were almost hoarse, and the situation died down a little.
Prime Minister Yin and Imperial Tutor Yang were still unwilling to give in, forcing Shangguan Shu to resort to his trump card.
"Prime Minister Yin, I heard your wife's surname is Bai, Bai Qi. I happened to see this name in the genealogy of the foreign Bai clan. I heard that this foreign clan loves to marry into the Central Plains in an attempt to confuse bloodlines. Could Madam Yin be from the same clan as those evil people?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Prime Minister Yin stretched his neck and glared, "Shangguan Shu, who are you scolding? My wife is virtuous, kind, and filial, as everyone can see. How could she have anything to do with those evil people?"
