Before they went to sleep, they picked up the portrait of Princess Jinyi's daughter and looked at it.
The emperor pointed at the child's nose and said, "Look, this child's nose is made from the same mold as mine."
Empress Jing'an, who was in her arms, said, "How can they be similar? Your nose is so big. If a girl had a nose like yours, wouldn't she be very ugly?"
The emperor held Empress Jing'an tighter and threatened, "No, lookalike, right?" He emphasized each word.
Empress Jing'an, who was tickled by the breath, protested, "Your Majesty, you can't cheat like this."
After kissing Empress Jing'an several times, the Emperor smiled and said, "I am your husband, madam. You should regard your husband as your God, don't you know?"
After he finished speaking, he picked up Queen Jing'an and went to the bed.
After the fifteenth day, one night, at three o'clock in the morning, Empress Jing'an had that very real dream again.
In her dream, she was still lying in bed. She hadn't dreamed of this in years, but now it felt more real. She could even touch herself in bed. Looking at Song Ning sleeping on the edge of the bed, Queen Jing'an reached out and tried to touch her.
The fingertips gently touched Song Ning's arm, and Song Ning seemed to be awakened by the touch. After a moment of sleepiness, he looked around and then looked at the person lying on the bed. Song Ning reached out and touched the face of the person on the bed, frowned slightly and murmured: "When will you come back?"
Empress Jing'an wanted to look again, but was shaken awake. When she opened her eyes, the sun was bright outside. The emperor was holding her arm, and her eyes were full of panic.
Seeing that Queen Jing'an finally opened her eyes, the emperor asked with red eyes: "Fang Ting, how do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
Empress Jing'an, who had just woken up, felt exhausted. She cleared her throat and said, "It was just a very real dream."
The Emperor somehow recalled the inexplicable dream. He stared at Empress Jing'an for a long time and said, "Get up and eat something. It's already noon."
Noon? I've slept for so long. Empress Jing'an stretched her arms and stood up, then washed up with the help of the palace maids. The Emperor, unseen by Empress Jing'an, stumbled towards the Tianji Hall.
The Tianji Hall was filled with incense all day long. The senior monk was gone, leaving only two young monks chanting sutras and reciting Buddhist scriptures. Seeing the emperor come in, the two monks bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are honored."
The Emperor walked straight to the Buddha statue in the Tianji Hall and looked up at it for half an hour before asking, "Before he left, the eminent monk said that if he practiced benevolent governance and benefited the people, his wishes would be fulfilled. If my wish is shocking, can it be realized?"
The two monks looked at each other, and the older monk took two steps forward and replied, "Your Majesty, as the emperor of the mortal world, if you make the people live in prosperity, you will naturally gain merit. Things in this world are based on cause and effect. If a virtuous person asks for something, heaven and earth will help him achieve his wish. Although I am not as profound as Master, I also know a thing or two."
The emperor turned his head and looked at the monk and said, "It is granted, it is granted."
After saying this, he turned around and slowly left.
After leaving the Tianji Hall, the emperor suddenly lost consciousness. Zhou Defa, who was accompanying him, quickly stepped forward to support the emperor and called out to the palace attendants, "Call the imperial physician and help the emperor to the bed in the hall."
Then he ordered, "Quickly go and invite the Queen and the Crown Prince."
