Sheng Hong rarely goes home for lunch on weekdays. Why did he suddenly come back today?
Gu Shanchang gave Xie Mingxi a meaningful look: "Your Highness returns home, why don't you go and greet him?"
When the couple had a quarrel, Sheng Hong would go back to his house to coax others. Don't be so pretentious!
No matter what he was thinking in his heart, Xie Mingxi couldn't show any signs of disapproval on her face. She responded, got up and walked out. After taking a few steps, Sheng Hong strode towards him.
The two looked at each other from a distance.
Xie Mingxi subconsciously slowed down.
However, Sheng Hong quickened his pace and arrived in front of Xie Mingxi in three steps. He held Xie Mingxi's hand and said, "You are pregnant and don't stay well. Why did you get out? I have hands and feet. I can just go in by myself."
There's no need for you to come out to greet me! Come in quickly and sit down."
It was as if nothing had happened.
The awkwardness in Xie Mingxi's heart suddenly disappeared, and she responded softly as usual: "I'm in good health, it doesn't hurt to take a few steps."
Sheng Hong held Xie Mingxi's hand and entered the dining room, asking questions all the way: "What time did you get up this morning?"
"How's your appetite today?"
"Have you vomited again? How many times have you vomited? Do you feel uncomfortable? Have you let the imperial doctor take a look? At noon today, what did Ye Qiuniang make that you like to eat?"
I kept asking endless questions.
Just like every other day.
Xie Mingxi's heart was slightly warm, but she didn't mind Sheng Hong's verbosity. She answered one by one: "When I got up, it was already three o'clock in the morning. My appetite is not bad today. I vomited once after breakfast and it was not uncomfortable. Master asked the imperial doctor to examine me.
My Ping'an pulse is stable. Qiuniang made eight dishes and one soup today, all of which are light, delicious and delicious."
Sheng Hong felt relieved.
After being willing to talk to him, it seemed that Xie Mingxi's anger had almost dissipated.
When Gu Shanchang saw the young couple coming hand in hand, he was quite satisfied. He pretended that he didn't know about the quarrel between the two and said with a smile: "Sit down and eat quickly, so as not to let the food get cold."
Sheng Hong responded with a smile. After sitting down, he kept picking vegetables and putting them into Xie Mingxi's bowl. After a while, the food was piled up.
Xie Mingxi had a pretty good appetite and ate most of it. Unfortunately, not long after eating, she felt nauseated and pantothenic acid in her stomach, churning continuously.
When Sheng Hong saw Xie Mingxi's expression was different, he immediately became nervous and hurriedly helped Xie Mingxi go behind the screen.
At this time, he no longer cared about his appearance. Xie Mingxi leaned over slightly and vomited cleanly. Sheng Hong didn't dislike it at all, and gently wiped the corners of Xie Mingxi's mouth with a handkerchief.
After vomiting, Xie Mingxi felt much more energetic. However, she still frowned slightly and looked weak.
Sheng Hong naturally put his arm around Xie Mingxi's shoulders.
Xie Mingxi did not refuse, and just let Sheng Hong half hug and half support him back to the inner room.
Gu Shanchang looked at the young couple hugging each other intimately and smiled.
The young couple occasionally had quarrels, but they soon reconciled. She didn't have to worry about it anymore.
…
After entering the inner room, Xianghui and Congyu Fuyu withdrew knowingly.
Sheng Hong continued to hug Xie Mingxi and refused to let go.
Xie Mingxi did not push him away.
"Mingxi," Sheng Hong's chin gently touched Xie Mingxi's head, and his voice was soft and soft: "It was my fault last night. I shouldn't have said the wrong thing to make you angry and cry. Can you please forgive me this time?"
?”
After a while, Xie Mingxi said in a low voice: "I am really angry. In fact, what you said is the truth..."
"I was carried away by jealousy."
Sheng Hong took over the topic without thinking: "I know I shouldn't be jealous about what happened, but when I think of you having given birth to a son for the Four Emperors, I can't help but feel sour in my heart. I blurt out those words as soon as my brain twitches.
And out! In fact, I regretted it as soon as I said it."
"This is the first time and the last time."
"Mingxi, I will never say these suspicious words to hurt your heart again."
Xie Mingxi's body seemed to tremble slightly, but she said nothing.
Sheng Hong waited for a moment, feeling uneasy, and reached out to touch Xie Mingxi's face. Fortunately, his face was clean and no tears were shed.
She cried a lot last night, and his heart hurt more than hers.
He never wanted to see her cry again.
Sheng Hong has been practicing martial arts for many years, and a thin layer of calluses has already been worn on his fingertips. He slid it on her cheek and groped around. Xie Mingxi's last trace of awkwardness disappeared: "If I don't say anything,
Do you plan to keep touching it?"
Sheng Hong responded shamelessly: "You guessed it right."
The restless hand has slipped from Xie Mingxi's cheek to her chest.
Xie Mingxi: "..."
…
After a long time, there were voices in the inner room again.
"You came back so early today, my father won't be angry with you, right?"
"I haven't received any practical errands. Now the three emperor brothers, the fourth emperor brother and the fifth emperor brother are staying in Yiqing Palace all day long, scrambling to perform to please the father. How can the father have time to take care of me?"
There was a touch of sarcasm in Xie Mingxi's tone: "The battle for the crown prince has long been clear. It's just that the fourth prince is obsessed with it. Why is the fifth prince also joining in the fun?"
Sheng Hong held Xie Mingxi's shoulders, and Xie Mingxi rested her head on Sheng Hong's shoulders.
Sheng Hong was like a cat that had eaten a fish, with a face full of satisfaction. Xie Mingxi's lips were particularly bright red, and her words were quite mean.
Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Before the last moment, there is still a chance. The fourth brother will never give up easily, and the fifth brother will follow suit."
His life is still the most leisurely and comfortable.
Now, the second prince who is also leisurely and contented has given up the fight for the throne.
Xie Mingxi said lightly: "The third prince is a little mediocre, no wonder the fifth prince is unconvinced."
It's just that some people have had an advantage since birth, and it's okay not to accept it.
Empress Yu couldn't give birth to a son, so she chose her maternal cousin to enter the palace to give birth to a son for her concubine. The third prince had Empress Yu's support, and even the fourth prince, who had the most sacred heart, was suppressed, let alone the fifth prince.
"Brother Five Emperors can't think about it themselves, and there is nothing we can do about it. After a few days, when the father issues the imperial edict to establish the crown prince, all the troubles will subside."
After talking about the appointment of the crown prince, Sheng Hong whispered again: "Mingxi, the quarrel is too uncomfortable. I didn't sleep all night last night, and I am always in a trance when I go to court today."
"From now on, we will never quarrel or get awkward again."
Xie Mingxi hummed softly.
"When the matter of establishing the crown prince is settled, I will go to the father to ask for a leisurely job. From now on, we will live our own little life behind closed doors."
Sheng Hong turned his head and kissed her forehead, and continued to look forward to the future with great interest: "In a few years, I will ask myself to be crowned king, and I will leave the capital as soon as possible to become a vassal. It doesn't matter if the fiefdom is smaller or farther away. It's best if
It is far away from the capital. The mountains are high and the water is far away, so it is quiet and comfortable."
