In the end, only a cold, lifeless name remained in Chapter 517.
Di Jingling could easily see the excitement on her face.
He began to reflect on himself.
Is it because she's been staying at the Prince's Mansion lately that she's getting bored?
So much so that such a small thing made her so excited and thrilled?
He squeezed her small hand a little tighter, and said calmly in a low voice, "Okay, whatever you say."
That tone was full of doting affection.
Xiao Tang was also somewhat surprised.
She's been so lazy lately that most of the time when she wakes up, Emperor Jingling has already gone home after court. She's not even sure if she'll be able to get up early and go to court with him tomorrow.
Women have always been forbidden from participating in politics in the Great Sheng Kingdom, but ever since the Regent King broke with convention and forcibly brought her to court, the ministers have dared not object.
Xiao Tang knew that this was Di Jingling's doing.
There is still no news about the young emperor, but the morning court session must continue.
The regent is so pitiful.
We are real working people, we can't take a vacation.
Xiao Tang's beautiful eyes flickered, and she snuggled into Di Jingling's arms, not forgetting to act coquettishly, gently rubbing against him, "Husband, you have to wake me up tomorrow, otherwise I won't be able to get up."
Like a lazy cat.
The man had his arm around her, his eyes taking in her coquettish expression, and a slight smile subtly curved his lips.
That would be excellent.
The more Xiao Tang depended on him, the less she could leave him.
Xiao Tang, leaning against him, could clearly sense his strangely good mood.
She tilted her head slightly upwards.
He let out a puzzled "Eh?"
"You seem very happy?"
"Hmm." The man didn't utter a single word of rebuttal, speaking frankly.
Goodness, you actually dared to agree.
After returning home.
Xiao Tang followed Di Jingling closely.
She also wanted to go and see the prisoner who had just been captured.
Given Di Jingling's nature, he would definitely prevent her from seeing this person under the guise of protecting her and avoiding any risks.
She followed closely behind.
Di Jingling was probably somewhat helpless, and finally stopped in the corridor.
Xiao Tang bumped into his back with a "thud".
She gently rubbed her forehead.
Why did you suddenly stop?
"I will not interrogate the prisoners today, but you will get tired if you keep following me."
As he spoke, he pulled her hand away and rubbed her forehead.
He rubbed her hands while comforting her, saying, "This is such a small thing, you shouldn't have to go through all that trouble."
It does sound like there's nothing wrong with it.
But……
The more Xiao Tang listened, the more something seemed off.
【I'm not tired! Why do you keep saying I'm tired? I'm pregnant, what's there to be tired about!】
She pouted her red lips and asked in a low voice, "So when do you plan to interrogate the prisoner?"
"Would you mind being brought along during the interrogation?"
Di Jingling probably knew all along that he couldn't refuse her, so he took the initiative to make this invitation.
As expected, these words drew a satisfied nod from Xiao Tang.
A smile curved her lips: "My husband understands me so well, I am truly moved to tears."
He certainly didn't see the slightest hint of emotion on her face.
However, he dared not say that.
...
Night fell.
A torrential downpour began tonight.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared.
As soon as Di Jingling got into bed, his soft, plush wife automatically snuggled into his arms.
She was still trembling in his arms.
The man, who had initially looked somewhat tired, now gazed at the woman in his arms.
Lightning flashed continuously, illuminating Xiao Tang's extremely pale face.
He ran his index finger along the corner of her eye, trying to see if the girl was having a nightmare.
She suddenly hugged him even tighter.
Di Jingling remembered that there was still that big gift bag under the bed.
I don't know what it is?
He had always been very curious.
But his wife disagreed, so he kept putting up with it.
With the beauty in his arms and no other hands available, he had no choice but to give up.
There will always be a chance to open this gift package.
Xiao Tang was never afraid of thunder, but she had a nightmare.
In her dream, she died, and her corpse was held tightly in Di Jingling's arms.
Finally, it turned into smoke.
The system told her that she should go back.
The system also told her that as she left, the characters in the book would gradually forget her existence.
Over time, she will completely disappear from that book, and in the end, she may only be a cold, lifeless name.
She was unconvinced and unwilling to accept it, so she asked the system where her unborn child was.
Just as the system was about to answer the question, it suddenly woke up.
My mouth hurts so much.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a magnified handsome face, familiar, aloof, and restrained.
Outside, the rain pattered against the window, its tinkling sound like a beautiful song.
She stared at his face and blinked gently.
Why did you bite her so early in the morning?
"Awake?" He released her mouth, seemingly quite pleased with her bewildered expression.
Xiao Tang immediately pinched his handsome face.
It wasn't until she saw him frown that she realized what had happened before was a nightmare, and what was happening now was real.
"Tangtang, you're crying."
The man's long fingers wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
It was a very soft sound, tinged with a sense of helplessness.
Xiao Tang wiped her face.
It was indeed ice-cold.
It wasn't an act; he was just triggered by that nightmare.
"What's wrong? Was the nightmare too terrible?" He wiped away her tears.
Last night, the girl trembled in his arms, and he felt vaguely uneasy.
Xiao Tang shook her head, "It was just a nightmare. I was terrified by it. Don't worry, my husband, let's go to court."
