Xuan Ling chuckled, nuzzling her nose: "Of course."
His warm breath brushed against her earlobe. "Yan Yan, whatever you want to do to me... is fine. I promise - if you push me, I will fall; if you kiss me, I will kiss you back..."
"Hmm~~~~"
Breathing becomes disordered.
Xuan Ling tore off the obstructing Yanluo skirt, and just as his fingertips touched the slender waist that was as white as snow—
"Wow--!"
Yue Zhao's crying suddenly rang out, and soon after, Yu Yan and Yu Chen also followed suit.
The three wet nurses rushed in, only to see the Emperor and Empress on the Dragon Bed in dishevel.
Xuan Ling suddenly pulled the bright yellow brocade quilt over the two of them.
It was pitch black under the quilt.
Sheng Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled secretly. Xuan Ling moved closer to her and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Yanyan, your eyes are so beautiful."
She closed her eyes obediently, and he kissed her eyelids gently, his warm breath sliding from the tip of her nose to her earlobe, and then down...
"Wait, wait a minute..." Sheng Xiyan said coquettishly, "Let's wait until the children fall asleep..."
Xuan Ling held her wrist and said, "No wait."
Outside, the wet nurses were busy coaxing the baby. Finally, the crying stopped. It seemed that after changing the diaper and feeding the baby, the grandmother fell asleep.
The two of them confidently uncovered the blanket and were about to begin their action when they suddenly heard a childish voice: "Father, are you giving Mother a massage?"
Forehead…….
Sheng Xiyan crawled back into the quilt. Xuan Ling remained calm and massaged her legs seriously. "Yes, your mother is very delicate, you know that. Father, give her a massage. General, go to sleep quickly. We have to go to the training ground to ride horses tomorrow."
"Yeah," he agreed tiredly and turned over to sleep.
Now I can finally eat...
Xuan Ling was ready to go, just as he was about to take action, but he looked up and saw Yu Chen looking at him with curiosity, his eyes wide open.
"..." Xuan Ling gritted his teeth, "You kid, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Sheng Xiyan quickly picked up Yu Chen and coaxed him. Xuan Ling was standing beside him, with nothing to eat but the food to watch, and his back teeth were broken.
Finally, Yu Chen couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep, but Sheng Xiyan was also so sleepy that she kept yawning.
"Xuan Lang..." She leaned softly into his arms, "I'm so sleepy, hold me to sleep..."
Xuan Ling looked up to the sky and sighed: "What kind of fate is this for me!"
He glared at the three little guys and gritted his teeth: "I will throw you back to the West Warm Pavilion tomorrow!"
The empress dowager rested in Baiyun Temple for two days before returning to the palace.
I suppressed my excitement to see my daughter. I couldn't be anxious or scare her.
In the afternoon, the head nanny came in and happily reported, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Empress is now going to Huayu Hall to soak in the hot springs. What do you think?"
The Queen Mother was so excited that she was a little incoherent, "Quick! I want to go to Huayu Hall!"
Just as he took two steps, he heard a slight "click" sound from his waist.
The Queen Mother cried out in pain and fell sideways on the couch.
"Your Highness!" Madam Zhao hurriedly supported her. "But has your old injury recurred?"
The Queen Mother was sweating profusely from the pain, but she still struggled to get up: "No... I must see it with my own eyes..."
"How can you go like this?" Aunt Zhao stamped her feet anxiously, "Why not let this servant go..."
The Queen Mother grasped her wrist tightly: "Go...find a way to see clearly..."
Huayu Hall.
In the misty water vapor, Sheng Xiyan leaned lazily against the white marble pool.
Her black hair cascaded behind her, making her skin look white as snow.
The water droplets slid down her delicate collarbone and sank into the faintly visible ravine.
"My Lady." Hua Xia gently massaged her temples. "Would you like some more flowers?"
Sheng Xiyan was about to nod when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from outside.
"Hail, Her Majesty." Madam Zhao bowed respectfully, holding a glass cup. "The Queen Mother ordered this servant to bring Sushan."
Hua Xia straightened her back instantly. People from Cining Palace came. Could they be causing trouble again?
Sheng Xiyan didn't even open her eyes and sneered, "What new tricks has the Queen Mother come up with?"
She tapped the water lightly with her fingertips. "Go back and tell her that the children are heavily guarded in the Yangxin Palace. Go ahead and grab them!"
"Your Majesty has misunderstood." Nanny Zhao smiled apologetically as she lifted the glass lid. The sweet aroma of cream immediately filled the air. "The Queen Mother said that before... it was her fault."
Sheng Xiyan's nose twitched slightly, and she finally opened her eyes.
The crispy mountain is drizzled with honey and dotted with early cherries, which is exactly her favorite taste.
Her limbs, which had been softened by soaking, suddenly regained strength, and she swallowed subconsciously.
"Hua Xia," she said, pretending to be calm, "Go to the imperial kitchen and ask for ten servings."
"This..." Hua Xia glanced out the window in embarrassment. "It'll take at least half an hour... The hot spring should be ready by then."
Sheng Xiyan's stomach growled uncontrollably.
"I'll try it with a silver needle." Madam Zhao took the opportunity to hand over a silver spoon. "It's absolutely non-toxic."
The glass cup finally fell into Sheng Xiyan's hands.
She sipped the cream, squinting her eyes in satisfaction, and didn't notice that Zhao Ma was quietly walking around behind her.
"Your Majesty's hair is wet." Aunt Zhao suddenly reached out, "I will help you..."
"How dare you!" Hua Xia stepped forward and stood in the middle. "What is Zhao Ma doing?"
"The Queen Mother wants to make new clothes for you..." Madam Zhao smiled awkwardly and withdrew her hand, "Come and take your measurements..."
Sheng Xiyan put down the glass cup with a thud and said, "The Queen Mother, will you make clothes for me?"
