Xuan Ling gently raised his hand and gently stroked the hair by her ear.
"Yan Yan is very smart, that's indeed the truth. Tomorrow I will send someone to thoroughly investigate the imperial physician who treated Shen Wanrong and the palace maids who served her."
Sheng Xiyan did not mention the suspicion of a fire. After all, the guards said it was caused by the strong wind, and it was difficult to say without evidence.
In any case, after talking about Shen Wanrong, she felt relieved, and a faint sweet smile bloomed on her face. That smile was like a flower blooming in spring, delicate and beautiful.
The movement of her eyes is full of charm, as if it can capture people's souls and make them intoxicated.
Xuan Ling looked at her and could not help but be captivated by her. He murmured softly, "Yan Yan's smile is full of charm, and all the beauties in the palace pale in comparison."
Sheng Xiyan felt a little shy when he praised her. She covered her face with her hands, laughed softly, and then turned over to sleep on her back.
Xuan Ling stood up and looked at her, then asked jokingly, "What's wrong? Are you shy, Yanyan?"
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. Let's go to bed early."
"good."
Xuan Ling responded, lying down and gently placing his hand beside her, his fingertips could feel the warmth from her body.
He still couldn't bear to touch her.
Early the next morning, Sheng Xiyan woke up slowly. She felt something pressing on her and it was hard for her to breathe. She slowly opened her eyes and found herself sleeping in Xuan Ling's arms!
She wanted to break free but was afraid of waking the emperor, so she could only observe his face carefully.
The emperor was seen sleeping peacefully, his face as white as jade and his appearance as magnificent as a king, every part of his face was as beautiful and impeccable as if it were carefully carved.
Sheng Xiyan couldn't help but think of Qi Yan. Qi Yan's temperament was completely different from Xuan Ling's.
His figure is as tall and straight as a pine tree, his aura is as strong as the sun, and beneath his sword-like eyebrows are a pair of bright and shining eyes.
Every time he saw her, he always had a childlike smile on his face, which was a joy that came from the heart.
I still remember that after she was shot by an arrow, Qi Yan took her to the hospital for treatment.
She was in a coma for two days in the clinic before waking up.
When I woke up, the first thing I saw was a man's face with a resolute and bright smile.
"You're awake now. Does the wound still hurt?" Qi Yan asked with concern.
Sheng Xiyan looked down and saw that the right side of her chest had been bandaged. She subconsciously thought that he had seen her body thoroughly, and her face immediately turned red with shame.
Qi Yan seemed to see through her thoughts and quickly explained, "Don't be afraid, young lady. Your wound was treated by a female doctor from the clinic."
After hearing this, Sheng Xiyan developed a favorable impression of Qi Yan.
“…”
I originally went up the mountain to collect some medicinal herbs, but how come I was suddenly shot by an arrow?
Later I thought that God was giving her a lover in another way.
A few days later, after she was out of danger, he carried her back to the Sheng family.
As soon as she entered, she introduced herself and said, "Aunt, elder brother and sister-in-law, younger sister, I am a fan of Xi Yan, and I will come to bother you often in the future."
Everything happened naturally, and the two of them always had endless things to talk about when they were together.
Qi Yan was witty and humorous, often making Sheng Xiyan laugh, and sometimes even chasing him to beat him.
Half a year later, under the setting sun, he placed her hand on his heart and said solemnly:
"Ayan, I will ask the Emperor for permission to marry me tomorrow, and we will choose a date to be married. From now on, you will be my only wife, and we will be together until we grow old. I swear to heaven that I will never take a concubine. All my salary and rewards will be given to you, and I will hold you in my hands and love you wholeheartedly."
Sheng Xiyan knew how difficult it was to get married between people of unequal social status, and the Prince of E's Mansion would definitely not agree to the young general marrying an ordinary commoner.
I waited anxiously for two days, without any hope.
It was a rainy day when I suddenly heard a man in the yard shout, "Ayan! It's done!"
Sheng Xiyan pushed open the door, and the man in the rain smiled happily, threw away the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and stretched out his arms.
She ran down the stairs happily and threw herself into his arms.
"Ayan, I thought you wouldn't come again."
Qi Yan hugged her happily and said with a smile, "It is still the Emperor who has the final say. No one dares to say anything if he grants the marriage! Ah Yan, five days from now is a good day. Let's get married."
"Ayan, is this true? Is the Emperor so easy to talk to?"
"It's true. Our emperor is a wise ruler who is open-minded and considerate. I will take you to the palace to meet him in the future."
"Then I must bow to him respectfully and thank him for granting us a marriage."
Qi Yan picked up Sheng Xiyan, and the two of them spun around in the rain, laughing. The rain wet their faces and clothes, but it did not affect their ecstasy at all.
What a beautiful scene! Unfortunately, time has gone and can never be returned...
How much she missed him...
