If two people are in the same room doing their own things, that's fine.
Ying Xixi was reading the storybook, and Song Mobai was accompanying her, which was also good.
But the problem was that whenever she wanted to get up to go to the toilet or go out for some fresh air, Song Mobai would immediately get up and support her.
And if she wants to drink water or eat something, the maid can serve her.
But Song Mobai wanted to take over the maid's job and serve her personally.
It seems that Song Mobai has nothing to do, but there are clearly a lot of unreviewed memorials on the table.
After a few days, Ying Xixi felt a little suffocated and even felt annoyed when she saw Song Mobai.
"Your Majesty, can you let me breathe a little? I want to be alone."
Ying Xixi's face was expressionless, and her tone was quite distant.
Looking at his wife like this, Song Mobai felt a little flustered unconsciously.
All kinds of words came to his lips, but he hesitated and didn't say them out loud, for fear of scaring Ying Xixi.
In the end, all those words turned into just one word, "Okay."
Song Mobai asked someone to move the memorial back to the imperial study.
He would come to Qingyou Palace to accompany Ying Xixi for three meals a day and before going to bed at night, and would stay in the imperial study at other times.
But in fact, when Ying Xixi didn't know, Song Mobai was watching her.
Seeing Ying Xixi so happy when he was not around, Song Mobai felt bitter and couldn't help but wonder if Ying Xixi no longer had him in her heart.
Song Mobai felt bitter in his heart, and his emotions showed on his face. He was very strict with the ministers, and he was so busy handling government affairs and practicing sword that he forgot to eat and sleep, as if he wanted to forget the bitterness in his heart by doing these things.
Manlin, the chief eunuch beside Song Mobai, could more or less guess what the emperor was thinking.
I didn't expect that the emperor was also a lovesick man.
This kind of life lasted for a month, and Song Mobai couldn't stand it anymore.
He drank to drown his sorrows in the imperial study at night and drank several jars of wine, which made Eunuch Lin very anxious.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please stop drinking. Even if you drink to drown your sorrows, it only makes them worse!"
"Manlin, tell me, does Xixi no longer have me in her heart?
She doesn't want to see me anymore!
It’s been a month! She hasn’t asked me to accompany her for a month!”
Song Mobai's eyes were red, he picked up the jar and poured it into his mouth.
Eunuch Manlin shook his head helplessly. He was really drunk.
"Your Majesty, I dare to say that your Majesty is still pregnant.
The Queen definitely has you in her heart, but now besides you, the Queen must also have the three little princes in her heart!
Besides, lovers don’t have to be together all the time.
There's a saying that distance creates beauty. Maybe you were always clinging to me, and I'm a little annoyed."
The truth that Eunuch Manlin told made Song Mobai even more sad.
He staggered to his feet, carrying a jar of wine and walked towards the door.
"I don't believe it! I don't believe Xixi would bother me! I'm going to ask her!"
Eunuch Manlin was so frightened that he tried to support Song Mobai, but Song Mobai shook him off.
Qingyou Palace.
Ying Xixi saw that it was getting late and Song Mobai had not returned yet. She was about to ask someone in the imperial study when she heard some noise outside.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please slow down!"
Ying Xixi frowned and sat up from the couch.
Before she could get up, a strong smell of alcohol wafted in.
Next came Song Mobai who staggered in, and Eunuch Manlin who followed beside him and tried to support him but couldn't.
"Your Majesty, may the Emperor be blessed! Your Majesty, the Emperor is drunk. I tried to persuade him to stop drinking, but he refused to listen and even scolded me!"
Eunuch Manlin also felt a little aggrieved, and started to complain when he saw Ying Xixi.
Ying Xixi saw Song Mobai's flushed face and blurry eyes, as well as the strong smell of alcohol, and it was obvious that he was very drunk.
She was so pregnant that she didn't dare to go forward and support Song Mobai.
"Why is the Emperor so drunk? Is there something on his mind?"
Ying Xixi asked Eunuch Manlin to help Song Mobai sit down.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is indeed worried."
Eunuch Manlin chattered on and on, directly telling Song Mobai all of his little thoughts.
The emperor just wants to stick to the empress, but the empress doesn't want to, and the emperor feels wronged and wants to cry.
Something like the emperor always suspects that the queen no longer has him in her heart, etc.
There is so much to say about each and every incident that Eunuch Manlin is almost addicted to it.
Ying Xixi: “….”
She really didn't know that Song Mobai had thought so much.
"Xixi, Xixi, do you not like me anymore? Xixi, please don't leave me..."
Song Mobai, who was drunk and dazed, reached out and held Ying Xixi's hand, and spoke humblely.
Ying Xixi felt a little uncomfortable and ordered the palace maid to prepare a bowl of sobering soup and send it over.
"Manlin, has the emperor ever been this drunk before?"
Ying Xixi recalled that there were a few nights when Song Mobai didn't come to sleep. She wondered if he was also drunk like this those nights.
"Your Majesty, this is the first time the Emperor has drunk his sorrows. Ever since he moved back to Qiankun Palace, he has been in a bad mood.
All the ministers, nobles and servants were terrified every day, fearing that the emperor would lose his temper.
Your Majesty, why don’t you have a good chat with the Emperor?
The emperor cares about you too much, so he becomes anxious and insecure. He is afraid that you will abandon him and run away.
Furthermore, Your Majesty, you are now pregnant with three little princes, and the Emperor is worried that you will only have the little princes in your heart and not him anymore."
Eunuch Manlin said this with a sad face.
If the emperor could feel better, his life would be better too!
Ying Xixi had a complicated expression. "Tomorrow I will tell the Emperor about this. Don't tell the Emperor about what happened tonight. Please leave first."
"yes."
Eunuch Manlin agreed and left briskly.
Soon the palace maid brought the sobering soup. Ying Xixi sat next to Song Mobai and was feeding him mouthful by mouthful.
As a result, Song Mobai didn't know what he dreamed about. He just refused to drink and his clothes were wet.
Ying Xixi gritted her teeth, pinched Song Mobai's jaw, held the bowl in her hand, and poured the drink into it!
After being forced to drink it, Song Mobai opened his blurry eyes and looked at Ying Xixi.
"Xixi, am I dreaming? I saw you."
Ying Xixi breathed a sigh of relief, handed the bowl to the palace maid, and pinched Song Mobai's cheek.
"Wake up! Let go of me. I need some water. I'm thirsty from feeding you sober soup."
Song Mobai let go obediently, and stared at Ying Xixi with his blurry and slightly red eyes without blinking, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Ying Xixi drank two sips of water, turned her head and saw Song Mobai's strange look, and was almost amused by him.
Not to mention, the drunk Song Mobai was the epitome of contrast.
