Chapter 477 Seizing every opportunity, I tried to persuade her not to travel far.
Until mealtime.
Di Jingling remained silent.
Although the main villain is usually taciturn, his silence today made the atmosphere particularly oppressive.
Xiao Tang bit her chopsticks, glancing at Di Jingling's cold face from time to time.
The man ate with great elegance.
His every move exudes an air of nobility.
Even the act of chewing food becomes exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Tang felt that he was under even more pressure than usual in this state.
He paused for a moment.
She deliberately changed the subject: "Husband, did the Emperor make trouble for you today?"
Di Jingling replied "no".
And so...
The conversation was so bad it was boring.
Xiao Tang became even more conflicted and depressed.
They're husband and wife, after all. How come they're feeling awkward because of the atmosphere? It's really torturous.
She sighed softly and silently lowered her head.
He picked up his chopsticks and started rummaging through the food.
I'm feeling down.
The man beside her seemed to notice this, looked up at her, and put a piece of pork belly on her plate.
With its perfect balance of lean and fatty meat, and glistening with oil, it looks incredibly delicious.
Xiao Tang finally gave in to the delicious food.
never mind.
She shook off her previous gloom and, just as she stuffed the succulent piece of pork belly into her mouth, a sudden wave of nausea washed over her.
She suddenly turned her head and spat out the meat.
This is considered morning sickness.
Di Jingling looked slightly annoyed when he saw that she had vomited, and gently patted her back, asking, "Are you alright?"
He hadn't expected Xiao Tang to vomit.
I can only blame myself for not understanding how people with morning sickness react.
Xiao Tang simply shook her head slightly.
"It's nothing, it's just a small matter."
For a while, she really loved eating meat, all kinds of meat with a good balance of fat and lean, such as marbled lamb, marbled beef, and pork belly. She would only eat meat with a bit of fat in it.
She no longer likes pure lean meat.
But it's only for a short period of time...
Now her tone has changed.
As a pregnant woman, constantly changing my tastes is really a headache.
Now she wants to eat something sour...
Upon hearing her words, Di Jingling paused for a moment. "What would you like to eat? I'll have someone tell the kitchen to prepare it."
Xiao Tang wanted to say something...
Di Jingling said seriously, "How can you go on a long trip like this? It's not good for you."
"That won't do!"
Upon hearing this, I realized that she was waiting for him here!
He seized every opportunity to try and persuade her not to travel far.
Goodness, when did the main villain become a preacher?
Incredible.
Xiao Tang immediately picked up her rice bowl and began to eat heartily.
Di Jingling was speechless and forcibly took away her bowl and chopsticks, "Stop making a fuss, it's not good for your health."
Wouldn't it be even worse if she ate and cried at the same time?
Xiao Tang lowered her hand.
Her mouth was still stuffed with rice, and her cheeks were bulging.
She stared at him blankly, speechless.
Di Jingling then said, "I'll do whatever you say, but you're not allowed to eat like that anymore."
She chewed slowly with satisfaction, silently agreeing with his words.
Di Jingling was truly helpless and shook her head with amusement.
Why do I suddenly feel like... this girl is as cute as a child even when she's pregnant?
Time flies.
Three days later, Emperor Jingling finished explaining the affairs of the court and took Xiao Tang to Shensuan Mountain.
Before going up the mountain, Xiao Tang reminded Di Jingling, "No matter what happens, don't be impulsive or yell at people. Stay friendly, okay?"
Di Jingling: "..."
Yanjiu and Yanshi: "..."
This insistence on being friendly is intriguing.
After all, getting the regent to remain friendly is an impossible task.
The Regent isn't always kind to everyone, especially if someone is disrespectful to the Queen...
Xiao Tang tugged at his sleeve and shook it gently, "Promise me."
"Okay...but it depends on the situation." The man had no choice but to agree, letting her tug at his sleeve and enjoy her coquettishness.
"Sect Leader, you've arrived!"
At the mountain gate, two young disciples stepped forward to greet them.
They bowed slightly to Xiao Tang.
Extremely respectful.
Xiao Tang gave a soft "hmm": "You specially came here to welcome me?"
"Yes, Sect Leader, we have come to greet you on the orders of the Second Sect Leader."
Second Master...
He was also the previous sect leader.
After the old man inexplicably gave the position of sect leader to Xiao Tang, Shensuan Mountain gained a second sect leader.
It's actually quite funny.
Xiao Tang nodded and entered the Xuanhua Pavilion, where he saw an old man sitting in the upper seat, reprimanding his disciples.
It doesn't quite seem like he was reprimanding his disciples.
After all, he was smiling.
The disciples around them had been so thoroughly humiliated that they were all burying their heads in the sand like ostriches.
The old man said angrily, "You guys aren't going to do me any better. If we lose this metaphysics competition, I'll just give you all to the Ten Thousand Demon Cave as compensation!"
Upon hearing that they were to be thrown into the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, everyone's expression changed, and they all knelt down.
"Sect Leader, please calm down. We will definitely strive to win this competition."
The disciples of Shensuan Mountain were brainwashed from a young age.
The Cave of Ten Thousand Demons is terrifying, the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons is awful, never go to the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, or you will die a horrible death.
The disciples were naturally terrified upon hearing this.
I never expected the sect leader to be so ruthless.
"cough."
Xiao Tang's cough interrupted their conversation.
The second sect leader looked up and saw Xiao Tang. His smile remained the same, but it seemed more genuine than before.
