At noon, the sun was high in the sky and the sandalwood incense was curling in the Guangming Palace.
The warm winter sun shines through the window, adding a faint glow to the unfinished painting on the desk, which is dazzlingly beautiful.
The emperor slowly opened his eyes and didn't react for a moment.
"Finally woke up, are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Mingyue's eyes were full of worry, and she even subconsciously reached out to touch the emperor's forehead.
The emperor habitually held Shen Mingyue's hand: "You look so bad."
Shen Mingyue answered truthfully, "We were just wondering when you suddenly fainted. We were terrified. Luckily, the imperial physician came to see you and said it was due to overwork. It's nothing serious, but you just need more rest."
The emperor nodded without further explanation. He casually asked, "By the way, where are the people from the Eighth Prince's Palace?"
Shen Mingyue said, "They collected the Eighth Prince's remains and took them out of the palace."
"Didn't they take Lan Xin's body with them?"
Shen Mingyue smiled faintly: "Lu Zhiwen was going to take Lan Xin's body away, but the Eighth Princess refused to allow it and even threatened to step on Lan Xin's body."
"oh?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly.
The Eighth Princess stepped on Lan Xin's corpse? It seems she really hated Lan Xin.
She should have known that Lan Xin was not the Eighth Prince's niece, and perhaps she also believed that Lan Xin was responsible for the Eighth Prince's death.
In short, at this point, they had no choice but to believe it. The matter with the Eighth Prince could only end here. If the palace dared to meddle, he would definitely cut off the roots.
However, it seems that Lu Zhiwen is a timid person and should not be able to cause any trouble.
Seeing the emperor pondering something, Shen Mingyue continued, "It's really inappropriate to keep Lan Xin's remains in Shouning Palace. I asked the Dali Temple's Shaoqing to help deal with it. I also arranged for people to repair Shouning Palace and also had Fukang Palace cleaned up so that the Empress Dowager can temporarily stay."
"You have always been thorough and considerate in your work. But there are some things you can ask your servants to do, and you are pregnant."
There was a lot of self-blame and heartache in the emperor's eyes.
He felt more and more that Shen Mingyue had suffered with him. But Shen Mingyue had no shortage of food and clothing, so he had no way to compensate her.
There are so many things going on recently that he really can't spare any time to accompany her properly. He feels so ashamed.
The emperor sighed softly, lifted the quilt, and got up from the bed.
Seeing this, Shen Mingyue quickly took down the cloak hanging on the rack and put it on the emperor: "It's freezing cold, so don't catch a cold. Only when you are healthy can you have the energy to handle state affairs."
The emperor held Shen Mingyue's hand with his backhand: "Your hand is colder than mine. I don't know how the servants do their job. They didn't even prepare a thermos for you. Damn it!"
The tone of the second half of the sentence was even colder. Frightened, the maids on duty in the room all lowered their heads, fearing they would be punished.
Seeing that the emperor was about to vent his anger on the servants, Shen Mingyue quickly smiled and said, "I've always had a cold body, so cold hands and feet are normal. Hand warmers are really troublesome, I don't like them."
"Then I'll go to Changle Palace to rest and warm your bed." Flirting words came out of his mouth.
Shen Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and then her ears turned red instantly.
"What obscene things are you talking about in broad daylight!" She deliberately lowered her voice, her tone was very unnatural, and there was a hint of anger in her haste.
The emperor was delighted to see this and asked knowingly, "Did I say anything wrong? I'm your husband, so why shouldn't I warm your bed?"
[Wow, these young couples are so sweet! It's killing the singles, it's really unbearable to watch!]
The sarcastic voice made the emperor and Shen Mingyue stunned for a moment.
The emperor raised his eyes slightly and saw Su Qiqi in the cradle beside him pretending to cover her eyes with her hands, but her fingers were not closed and her little eyes were wide open.
I don’t know what she was thinking, but the smile on her face was so silly.
"You're so clever. You know everything at such a young age."
The emperor stood up and walked over, bent down and picked up Su Qiqi.
He even weighed it and teased Su Qiqi as usual.
Su Qiqi giggled with joy and hugged the emperor's neck tightly with both hands.
[First, my name is not Gui Lingjing, my name is Su Qiqi! ]
[Second, even though I'm a baby now, I'm very mature! If you treat me like a child, you're out!]
[Third, Tyrant Godfather, don't get too excited. If you faint again, it will be troublesome. It's okay if you faint, but I can't withstand a fall.]
“…”
Little girl, your tone of voice is weird.
She was screaming so loudly, I thought she would show some concern for him. But it turned out she was just afraid of falling.
It’s so infuriating!
The emperor was very depressed.
But Su Qiqi looked at him obediently, her big watery eyes full of innocence.
OK
This kind of thing is really hard to dislike.
"Our Qiqi is still the same as always..."
Need to be punished!
This is what the emperor thought in his heart, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind.
"Our Qiqi is still as well-behaved and smart as ever."
[Tsk tsk tsk, why do I feel this is so false? ]
"Tyrant Godfather, you're laughing so strangely. Did you fall and hit your head?"
emperor:"……"
"Qiqi has gained some weight and gained some weight. The Emperor is already unwell and should rest more. It's better not to hold her."
As Shen Mingyue spoke, she reached out to hug Su Qiqi.
The emperor dodged unhappily, "Hey, our Qiqi is as light as a leaf, why can't I hold her? Even if I hold Qiqi in my left hand and you in my right hand, it would be as easy as pie!"
