"Then am I the emperor's son?"
Xuan Ling held him in his arms, "You are father's good baby, baby, are you obedient?"
Jiang Jiang kissed him on the cheek and said, "I love my father the most and I will listen to him."
Originally, Xuan Ling wanted to send Jiang Jiang to the Sheng family to stay for a while to avoid this storm.
But he was worried that spies would catch him and threaten Qi Yan, so he had to give up.
"General, the Emperor has selected two powerful guards to protect you. During this period, you must take them with you wherever you go. Remember?"
Jiang Jiang's worries were swept away, and he excitedly said, "Really? Can I learn Kung Fu from them?"
Xuan Ling tapped his nose and said lovingly, "Of course, you are their master, they only obey your orders."
Jiang Jiang ran out happily, then ran back to Sheng Xiyan and wiped her tears with his little hands.
He held her head and said, "Mother, be good and don't cry."
Sheng Xiyan hugged him and forced a smile, "Mother is fine."
Jiang Jiang winked at Xuan Ling, and Xuan Ling came over reluctantly and sat beside the dragon couch.
"Father and Mother, just give me a hug, just a hug, and it will be fine."
Xuan Ling stretched out his arms to hug Sheng Xiyan and asked, "Aren't you more sensible than a child?"
Sheng Xiyan turned around and snuggled into his arms, just like usual.
The general smiled happily, "I'm relieved! Father, where are my guards? I want to take them to the training ground for training."
Eunuch Fu said with a smile, "Young Master, I will take you to find Commander Xue to lead the troops."
The hall became quiet, and agarwood was burning in the gilded furnace, with a rich and mellow fragrance.
How did Sheng Xiyan Sifu speak?
Xuan Ling was angry and didn't want to talk to her.
The two remained silent.
But they still held each other tightly and didn't let go of each other at all.
The palace maids in the imperial kitchen prepared the meal, which consisted of ten dishes and four soups. Half of them were blood-replenishing meals, and the other half were nourishing meals for Xuan Ling.
"Let's eat."
Xuan Ling got up and went to the golden nanmu round table. Aunt Mingyue helped Sheng Xiyan put on her shoes and helped her sit down.
"No need to serve, all of you go down."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xuan Ling picked up a piece of grilled beef and placed it in the jade bowl in front of Sheng Xiyan.
She was in a daze, not even picking up the jade, just sitting there.
There was no color on his face, and even his rosy lips were pale.
He picked up a piece of fried pork liver and fed it to her mouth, and ordered: "Open your mouth."
Sheng Xiyan frowned, opened her mouth and ate it, but before she could chew and swallow it, she was fed another piece of lamb's trotter.
She ate too slowly and he fed her too quickly. The atmosphere was cold and tense.
The more Sheng Xiyan chewed, the more nauseous she felt. She made retching sounds, but she didn't dare spit it out and tried her best to swallow it down.
Lean meat has never been so difficult to chew, and the throat has never been so difficult to swallow.
His face flushed red and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Xuan Ling took a bowl and placed it under her chin, "Spit it out!"
Sheng Xiyan snatched the bowl and turned around to vomit, but she felt too disgusted and was afraid that Xuan Ling would dislike her. She herself was disgusted with it.
He swallowed the food in his mouth.
Make a burping and retching sound.
Xuan Ling patted her on the back, feeling both pity and regret for her failure.
Sheng Xiyan suddenly stood up and knelt down, pulling his dragon robe, and pleaded with tears in her eyes:
"Your Majesty, could you please release Ah Yan from prison? He has endured a lot of suffering after escaping death. The prison is dark and damp..."
Xuan Ling smiled lightly with his thin lips, lowered his head and looked at her, his cold face full of disappointment.
"Your Majesty, Ah Yan once said that he had been with you since childhood. Don't you understand what kind of person he is? He would not betray the country or Your Majesty. I beg you to believe him."
Xuan Ling grabbed her and "bang." The golden hairpin on Sheng Xiyan's head fell off.
He pressed her down on the soft chair.
He ordered harshly:
"Pick up the jade. If you dare not eat properly, I will kill Qi Yan right now. Do you understand?"
Sheng Xiyan picked up the jade dish and ate it while crying. Her tears mixed with the food and went down her throat, making it taste like chewing wax.
Xuan Ling kept putting food into her bowl, piling it up into a small mountain.
After a long while, the emperor said solemnly:
"Sheng Xiyan, I hope you remember two things.
First, you are the Concubine Chen, my woman.
Second, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.
Qi Yan's affairs are not your business. Don't try to challenge my patience. I can't guarantee that I can pamper you without limits. Do you understand? "
Sheng Xiyan stood up and said in a low voice, "I understand."
Xuan Ling glanced at her coldly.
"Also, it's best that you don't leave Guanju Palace these days. You don't need to pay respects to the whole palace. Instead, cultivate yourself and improve your character. I hope you can stay out of this matter."
The majesty of the emperor is terrifying, and his authority cannot be offended.
Sheng Xiyan clasped her hands together, she simply couldn't remain indifferent.
"I'll take my leave."
Seeing her leave the Yangxin Palace, Xuan Ling kicked the soft chair away in anger.
That frail face clearly showed that she couldn't let go of Qi Yan.
A stubborn woman.
In the sky prison west of the imperial palace, Qi Yan sat cross-legged in the small space.
All I could see were railings and dim light.
A young man ran down the steps.
"Uncle!"
Tiewa was wearing a guard uniform. The captain of the guards said, "You will be responsible for keeping a close watch on Qi Yan here."
Tiewa nodded, and the captain of the guards glanced at Qi Yan and left.
Tiewa leaned on the railing and whispered, "Uncle, Prince Teng brought me in. Are you okay?"
Qi Yan came over and whispered, "It's okay. Go to the porch door and guard it. If anyone comes, just pretend to doze off and let him in."
"Uncle, this is the hot bun I brought you, eat it quickly."
Qi Yan took the cardboard bag and sat on the wooden bed to eat.
