Chapter 448 Hu Shanshan Extra (7)
"Your Majesty, please hand the fox demon over to me." The Grand Master looked worried. "Take care of her now while she is weak. Otherwise, there will be trouble."
"Deal with...?" The emperor knew what "deal with" meant. He narrowed his eyes. "I've spent over a year coaxing and loving her, and now I want to get rid of her? Isn't that too worthless?"
The Grand Master said, "I understand Your Majesty's reluctance, but this fox demon possesses profound magical powers, and has just been injured. Once she recovers and regains her power, she will be able to cause chaos throughout the capital, Your Majesty."
"I know this well, no need to elaborate." The emperor snorted, "Go down and prepare some good medicine to help the fox demon recover."
"Recover... Your Majesty?!"
"Okay! You don't have to worry about anything else. Go down." The emperor ignored him and called the palace maid in to carry the unconscious Hu Shanshan back to the bed.
The Grand Master had no choice but to leave alone, secretly regretting the loss of the materials for a nine-tailed fox demon.
…
Hu Shanshan has been having nightmares.
She dreamed that she was lying on a chopping board with her arms stretched out straight, and someone was chopping her arms with a blunt knife.
It hurts so much.
She cried so hard and tried hard to open her eyes to see who hurt her.
She discovered that the man was her husband. The Emperor!
Why is this? She gave birth to a boy for him, so why did he scold her for being useless and even want to kill her and her child?
She missed her father so much. She should have listened to her father and lived her whole life in Fox Mountain.
Fox Mountain is her home, this place is nothing.
…
Hu Shanshan opened her eyes and found herself still lying on her bed, with the familiar curtains and bedding.
So, was it all a dream?
No, her flat belly told her that it was not a dream.
Everything she experienced was real.
Her child has...
"Child!" she screamed.
How could she have fainted? What happened to her child? Did he die from the fall?!
She turned over and tried to get out of bed, but the pain in her arms and lower body made her unable to move.
Only then did she notice that her arm had been bandaged and fixed.
"Shanshan?"
A voice that was all too familiar to her rang in her ears.
She slowly turned her head and looked at the people around her.
It was the emperor, her husband.
For the first time, she didn't feel happy, but burst into anger.
"Where is my child! Where is he! What have you done to him?"
She didn't wait for the emperor to react, and regardless of the pain in her arm, a surge of spiritual power surged from her chest, and she grabbed the emperor's neck with both hands.
The long nails grew out and dug into the emperor's flesh, leaving bloody marks.
"He's fine, Shanshan! He, he's fine, the wet nurse is taking good care of him!" The emperor said with difficulty, "If you... ahem, want to see him, I'll have someone bring him here right now."
Hu Shanshan regained some consciousness.
But she did not let the emperor go immediately. Instead, she said calmly, "Send him here first, and I will let you go."
Because of the force, Hu Shanshan's injured arm made a crackling sound.
But she didn't even raise an eyebrow.
Under the emperor's order, the child was brought over and presented to Hu Shanshan.
She immediately pushed the emperor away, took the child in her arms, and made sure that he was lively and healthy, and that he was hers. Only then did she finally feel at ease and held the child tightly in her arms.
My child, as long as your mother is here, no one can hurt you anymore.
It took Hu Shanshan a while to calm down her anger and look the emperor in the eye.
"Why, why do you want to throw him to death as soon as you see him?"
The emperor touched his bleeding neck and groaned inwardly. The Grand Master was right. Dealing with a woman like this was like licking blood from the tip of a knife. He had to be extremely cautious.
"Shanshan, you've been in a coma for several days. Calm down and listen to my explanation."
"Say it!" Hu Shanshan screamed.
The emperor deliberately pressed the wound to make more blood flow out.
"Shanshan, I was inconsiderate before," he said, "I always wanted to make our child the crown prince, but I never expected that he would be half human, half demon!"
"Prince?" Hu Shanshan's eyes lit up, then drooped. "Half human, half demon... I thought you knew."
She had never expected her child to inherit the throne of crown prince, but she felt more touched when she heard the emperor think so.
As for being half human, half demon, she had indeed never mentioned it to the emperor.
But could it be possible that... humans and monsters could give birth to something else?
"I thought that since you had cultivated to the form of a human, you were no different from a human, and that we could only have human children," the emperor said. "So when the Grand Master told me that there were other demonic auras fluctuating in your chambers, I panicked."
He carefully took the child, undid the swaddling clothes, and turned the child over to show Hu Shanshan.
It's a small furry tail.
"It's the tail!" Hu Shanshan exclaimed, "He's still young and doesn't know how to control his spiritual power."
"It's too late." The emperor shook his head sadly. "Some wet nurses have already noticed his abnormality. I have no choice but to silence them. Otherwise, the child will be criticized when he grows up."
"Silence him..." Hu Shanshan covered her mouth sadly.
Did she indirectly kill someone?
"This child can't become the crown prince. If word gets out, it could cause unrest, and perhaps even traitors might use it to attack me," the emperor said. "All my plans for the future have been disrupted, so I'm anxious..."
"I'm sorry, Shanshan." He looked at her "sincerely." "Can you forgive me just once? I swear to God, I will never hurt you or the child in the slightest again!"
Hu Shanshan hesitated.
That night was so scary. It was the first time she saw the usually gentle and elegant emperor turn into a vicious thug. She still gets scared when she thinks of that scene.
She stared hard at her partner, desperately wanting to see through his heart and hear the truth from him, but all she saw were his black eyes, his chin that hadn't been shaved in time, and the bloody streaks on his neck that she had left behind.
Has he been guarding her bedside these days?
She committed the serious crime of hurting the king, but he did not blame her.
She raised her delicate hand and brushed her fingertips across the wounds on the emperor's neck, and they healed quickly.
What a powerful magic power... The emperor was shocked again. Even the great state teacher might not be able to use this trick.
He was unwilling to give up. Seeing that Hu Shanshan was still hesitating, he decided to go all out. With a thud, he knelt down on one knee!
"Your Majesty!" Hu Shanshan blurted out in fear, "Your Majesty, how can you kneel down! You are a child of destiny!"
"What a proud son of heaven." The emperor shook his head slowly. "If I can't earn your forgiveness, even Heaven will punish me. Shanshan, I swear what happened that night will never happen again. Believe me, okay?"
"Think about it, if I really wanted to kill our child, why didn't I do it while you were unconscious?"
"Or... I should write you a letter of guarantee?" He stood up and walked to the desk to grind ink. "If I do it again, you can punish me however you want!"
"No, don't write anymore!" Hu Shanshan cried and ran off the bed, "Your Majesty, I believe you!"
