The emperor was not surprised by Shen Qinghuai's rebellion, but it was also somewhat expected.
He robbed Shen Qinghuai's wife and transferred Shen Qinghuai away from the capital. Later, he heard that his mother died of illness on the way.
The longer the time goes, the more he will hate him.
Besides, Xu Lingyi gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and their family lived happily. On the other hand, Shen Qinghuai...
He was just afraid that he hated him.
Shen Qinghuai was indeed like that. After knowing that Xu Lingyi had given birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. If the emperor had not taken her away by force, it would be him, Shen Qinghuai, who would have had the child with her. Just thinking of her sleeping in the same bed with the emperor every day, and being loved by the emperor in bed...
Shen Qinghuai could not bear it and could not sleep at night. Only by imagining Xu Lingyi's face could he fall into a beautiful dream of harmony with her, and only when he felt a moment of happiness and peace of mind could he fall asleep.
But every time he wakes up, the dream is over and he has to face the cruel reality again.
Every time this happened, he felt suffocated, regret tormented him, and Shen Qinghuai's self-destructive mood became more and more serious.
He thought, if he couldn't get Xu Lingyi, why could the emperor get her?
Without Xu Lingyi, he lived like a walking corpse, trapped in the emotions of his past time with her every day. He would regret that he and her were just a little bit away from growing old together.
He was tortured by this thought and felt like he was living a life worse than death. Instead of living like this, he might as well do something. If he succeeded, he would be able to get Xu Lingyi. If he failed, she would be touched when she heard his name.
She should remember him...
"He has some talent in leading troops," Xu Lingyi said, still feeling a little worried. "Besides, he was a general for many years..."
The emperor, however, grasped her slender waist with his big hands, pressed her into his arms, and reached out to untie her belt.
"Yier, instead of worrying about these things, you might as well worry about me." The emperor's eyes were particularly burning.
"The children are already three years old. I want a few more children. We should work harder."
She was wearing a plain dress today, which wrapped around her exquisite figure. The emperor's eyes stayed on her with lust in his eyes.
Xu Lingyi couldn't help but push him away because of his straightforward and passionate gaze.
She had indeed been too clingy with the emperor during this period of time. The emperor was always... clingy to her day and night.
She thought that if she didn't get pregnant again, the emperor might work her to death.
If she got pregnant, she could at least have peace for nearly a year.
Xu Lingyi hesitated whether to take the fertility pill again. She loved children very much. She lost many children in her previous life, so she cherished children even more in this life. However, when she thought of the two troublemakers she gave birth to, her head hurt a little.
"Tuantuanyuan is really naughty, I am a little scared..."
She had just opened her mouth when the emperor kissed her: "Tuantuan and the others are a bit playful."
The emperor loved his children so much that in his eyes, there was nothing wrong with his children. However, since Xu Lingyi said this, he did not refute it.
"But Yi'er, just go ahead and give birth. I'll take care of them when the time comes. I'll definitely take good care of our children and won't let them do anything naughty."
In fact, she said that she thought the children were naughty, but she loved Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan to her core.
Xu Lingyi finally nodded.
After getting her consent, the emperor picked her up and strode towards the bed.
During the period when Xu Lingyi was not found to be pregnant, the emperor was extremely upset, and sometimes she even slept the whole day.
She couldn't bear it any longer, "Your Majesty!"
The emperor couldn't help but smile. "Yier, don't you want a child? Last time, Yier promised me that she would give birth to another child for me. If we don't work hard, how can we have a child? Yier, are you thinking of going back on your word?"
Xu Lingyi wanted to say that she had already taken the elixir, but now the imperial physician could not diagnose it, so she could not speak.
Faced with the emperor's rogue appearance, she could only keep it in her heart.
After waiting for more than a month, Xu Lingyi finally breathed a sigh of relief after being diagnosed by an imperial physician.
The emperor was both surprised and a little disappointed. Of course, he was nine parts surprised, and the only part disappointed was that he would have no excuse to be unruly and pester Xu Lingyi in the future.
"Mother, is Tuantuan going to have a brother or sister?" When Tuantuan was one year old, the emperor could not wait to appoint him as the crown prince. After much hesitation, he decided on a name, Xiao Chengzuo, which means blessing from heaven, and Xiao Jun, which means beautiful jade.
Xu Lingyi smiled and said, "Yes, are you happy?"
She took the twin pill again this time because the last time she was pregnant with two children, her delivery went smoothly and she did not feel much discomfort during the pregnancy. It was just that in the late pregnancy, her movements were not very convenient.
Tuan Tuan nodded heavily. He was only three years old now, which was the time when he was particularly cute, small, soft and well-behaved.
"Mother, Tuantuan is so happy. When my younger brothers and sisters come out, I will give them my favorite katydids."
Xu Lingyi reached out and rubbed his soft hair. "You can keep your katydids for yourself. They are still young and don't like these."
"Oh, okay." Tuantuan was a little disappointed.
"Mother, when will my younger brothers and sisters come out? I miss them so much." Tuantuan asked innocently, holding his face.
"You'll be able to see them in nearly eight months."
"How long is eight months, mother?" Tuantuan asked innocently, "Will I be able to see my younger brothers and sisters when I wake up from my sleep?"
"Stupid!" Yuanyuan nestled in Xu Lingyi's arms, her chubby little hands hugging her tightly, occupying her mother's arms.
"Eight months is a long time. We have to eat mung bean cakes at least three times before we can see it."
