Ying Xixi couldn't help but walk over and pinch Song Mobai's cheek.
"Your Majesty, are you awake?"
Song Mobai grabbed Ying Xixi's little hand and kissed her on his lips.
"Xixi, I'm awake now. Xixi, you have me in your heart, right?"
Song Mobai said that he was awake, but the confusion in his eyes did not subside at all.
Ying Xixi was also somewhat helpless, "Yes, yes, yes, if you are drunk, go to bed. I will talk to you about business tomorrow."
She helped Song Mobai up and let him lie on the bed.
As soon as he lay down, Song Mobai closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Ying Xixi took off his shoes and rested herself.
The next day, Ying Xixi woke up and met Song Mobai's gaze.
"Your Majesty, you are awake."
Ying Xixi rubbed her eyes and propped herself up to sit up.
Song Mobai supported her with a strange expression, "Xixi, I seemed to be drunk last night. I didn't say anything to you, did I?"
Ying Xixi turned her head to look at him, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten what happened last night? Did you drink yourself into oblivion?"
Song Mobai hummed vaguely, "I tend to forget what happens when I'm drunk, so I don't usually dare to get drunk."
Ying Xixi was amused. "Then why did you get drunk last night? Because you drank to drown your sorrows?"
Song Mobai felt a little embarrassed, as he threw back the quilt and got out of bed. "Xixi, I'm going to wash up first. I should go to court now. I'll come over after I'm done."
He left after he finished speaking, his figure looking like he was fleeing in desperation.
Ying Xixi laughed. Song Mobai was quite cute sometimes.
Song Mobai returned to the inner hall of Qiankun Palace, and Eunuch Manlin came to help him change clothes.
He stared at Eunuch Manlin for a while and asked him in a low voice.
"Manlin, what happened last night?"
Eunuch Manlin felt like he had thorns on his back. The emperor's gaze was so oppressive!
"Your Majesty, last night, you were drunk and insisted on going to see the Empress. I couldn't stop you, so I had no choice but to follow you."
Song Mobai pursed his lips and took a deep breath. "Then, what did I say and do to Xixi? And you..."
The pause in Song Mo's vernacular speech made Eunuch Manlin stiffen.
"And what did you say to Xixi behind my back?!"
Eunuch Manlin shuddered and could no longer hold on. He knelt on the ground with a thud and honestly told everyone he had said too much.
"...Your Majesty, please forgive me! I only said these words because I don't want you and the Empress to have any conflicts. Heaven and earth can bear witness to my loyalty to you, Your Majesty!"
When Song Mobai heard this, he thought of the look Xixi had given him before, and his ears started to feel hot.
Although it's embarrassing, it seems to have a good effect.
At least Xixi's gaze towards him had changed.
Song Mobai cleared his throat and said, "Well done, I'll collect my reward later."
Eunuch Manlin's face was filled with disbelief, and then he happily thanked the Lord for his grace.
At the morning court, the officials found that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood this morning.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the emperor was in a good mood, they would feel better too.
Everyone took this opportunity to talk about everything they had not dared to say in the past.
Song Mobai, who had been eagerly waiting for the morning court session to end so he could go back to be with his wife, immediately became unhappy as he saw more and more political affairs.
As soon as he looked sullen, the ministers began to speak more slowly.
After all this trouble, Song Mobai finally finished dealing with most of the things he needed to deal with, and he couldn't wait to go back to Qingyou Palace.
Ying Xixi sat on the couch, holding a storybook and eating a piece of cake with relish.
She is now more than eight months pregnant and the date of delivery is getting closer, so she is feeling quite relaxed.
Even the imperial physicians were terrified all day long. They would send people to take her pulse and examine her every day to make sure she was fine.
When Song Mobai came in and saw his wife being so obedient, his heart softened.
"Xixi."
"The Emperor is here. Have you finished handling the political affairs?"
Ying Xixi put down the notebook and asked him.
"Well, it's done. Xixi, I learned about what happened last night from Manlin. Xixi, what do you think?"
Song Mobai looked at Ying Xixi's clear eyes and felt that his mind was too morbid and disgusting.
If Ying Xixi knew he was like this, would she dislike him?
Song Mobai's eyes trembled, but he still looked away.
But Ying Xixi reached out and gently pinched his jaw, turning his face to face her.
"I didn't know you were so insecure and worried that I didn't have you in my heart.
If I say that I like you too and you are in my heart, will you believe it?
Or, how should I prove it to you so that you will feel safe?"
Song Mobai pursed his lips and said, "I want to be by your side all the time and see you all the time. Only then will I feel that you are mine."
Ying Xixi: “….”
"No, I'll feel breathless! Just like before, no.
Even couples with a good relationship need their own space.
Besides, I stay in the palace all day long and I don’t see any other men except you. What are you afraid of? "
Ying Xixi glared at Song Mobai and raised her voice a few notches.
Seeing that she was getting emotional, Song Mobai looked at her pregnant belly worriedly.
"Xixi, I was wrong. Don't get excited or angry!"
Ying Xixi took a deep breath and said, "I'm not excited, but I think I'm about to give birth."
Song Mobai: “!!!”
He stood up suddenly, "Come here! Call the imperial physician! And the midwife! The queen is about to give birth! Call them over quickly!
Xixi, Xixi, don't get excited. I'll help you stand up and we'll go lie down on the bed. I'll be with you, don't be afraid."
Song Mobai tried his best to calm down and gave orders to the palace servants in an orderly manner, but his hands that were holding Ying Xixi began to tremble obviously.
Ying Xixi vaguely felt the pain in her labor, and quickly took out the painless fertility pill from her space, and swallowed it while Song Mobai turned his head.
It melts in your mouth and the pain disappears instantly.
She was lying on the bed, and several midwives came in trotting.
"Your Majesty, please leave. This is the delivery room and you will be inconvenienced."
A palace maid persuaded Song Mobai to leave.
Song Mobai held Ying Xixi's hand tightly and didn't want to leave at all.
"What's the point of bumping into someone?! Nonsense! I'm not going out! I want to stay with the Queen!"
Ying Xixi was touched to see Song Mobai was so concerned about her.
But to be honest, she didn't want Song Mobai to see her giving birth.
"Your Majesty, please go out first. Wait for me and the child outside."
Since Ying Xixi said so, even if Song Mobai was reluctant, he had no choice but to leave first.
