Jiang Linxian's handsome face was tense, his expression unusually stern, making him look like a ferocious beast baring its claws.
Fu Sang's heart trembled slightly. He swallowed hard and slowly continued to explain.
“Ling Shuangxue must have noticed that Qingya Palace was being monitored. In order to meet with Ouyang Zimo, she will definitely use a scheme to prevent me from going to Qingya Palace to catch them in the act.”
“I told you before that Yuzhu was a spy planted by Ling Shuangxue next to me, so I used a scheme to have him ‘leak’ information to Ling Shuangxue and lure her into a trap.”
"The court officials have already sided with me, Ouyang Zimo in the harem has been neglected, and Ling Shuangxue is being pushed to the limit. She will definitely not wait any longer and will try to assassinate the Empress."
"Your Majesty need not say anything more," he interrupted her.
Jiang Linxian covered her with a blanket and reached under the blanket to hold her hand tightly.
Fu Sang's voice was weak, and he blinked.
"Really, there's no need to say anything more, you already understand?"
Is it really no wonder she made him bear the blame for plotting to murder the Queen? Is it no wonder she deliberately kept it from him?
Jiang Linxian's lips were thin and beautiful, but pale and bloodless.
"Your Majesty, do you know how worried I am?"
Hearing that she had been poisoned after eating white fungus and lotus seed soup, he was about to go to Luanfeng Palace to visit her when he was stopped by the guards brought by the female official at Yingyue Palace.
Rumors spread throughout the palace that he had plotted to murder the Empress.
He didn't care about the fabricated charges, but when he learned that she had fainted, he lost his usual composure and indifference, and wished he could fly to her side immediately.
Fortunately, she was fine; she was just pretending to be poisoned.
His anger turned to heartache when he saw her pale and frail face.
Fu Sang reached out and grasped his hand, whispering, "It's all my fault for making you worry."
He's so well-behaved in this dimension; I want to hold him in my arms and rub against him.
Seeing his once clear eyes lose their usual luster and become bloodshot, a pang of guilt welled up inside me.
"Lin Xian, come to bed and lie down with me."
Jiang Linxian took off her shoes and outer robe and got into the warm bed.
Fu Sang turned to look at the boy's delicate profile and reached out to cover his eyes.
"Close your eyes and rest for a while."
Jiang Linxian took her hand away and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.
His beautiful eyes were fixed on her.
She didn't blink, as if she would disappear into thin air if she closed her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I want to keep an eye on you."
Fu Sang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Really not going to sleep?"
Jiang Linxian pursed her lips and said, "I won't sleep."
Even though he hadn't closed his eyes to rest for several hours, and had rushed to Luanfeng Palace alone at night, he couldn't bear to close his eyes no matter how exhausted he was.
He needs to see her to feel at ease.
Fu Sang reluctantly moved closer to his lips and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Go to sleep, I'm really fine. I just looked weak because I took some fake medicine."
Jiang Linxian's long, raven-feather-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and her crimson lips parted gently: "Your Majesty, you must not use medicine on yourself in the future."
"Okay," Fu Sang replied.
She reached out and covered his eyes again, saying softly, "It will never happen again."
After she finished speaking, she gently kissed his soft lips.
Jiang Linxian's eyes were covered, and her vision was in darkness, making the sensation of her lips touching her even clearer.
The woman's faint fragrance wafted over, arousing a burning desire within him. He restrained himself, barely managing not to pounce on the woman in his arms.
Her voice came from beside my ear: "I'm not going to sleep, I'm going to do something else."
Fearing she might not be able to hold back, and for the sake of His Majesty's health, Jiang Linxian said in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty should also rest."
