Shimi knew that what he said just now was wrong. Ying Zheng must have been tortured both physically and mentally when he returned from Yongcheng. At this time, he did not comfort him, but instead blamed him for Fusu's name, which was really inappropriate.

She took a bowl of soothing soup and went to the side hall. She saw him lying on the bed without covering him with a quilt. Ying Zheng didn't sleep well, and his brows were always furrowed. The killing of his youngest son had caused huge psychological damage to him. , not to mention that he also severed the mother-child relationship with his biological mother.

Shimi covered Ying Zheng with a quilt and sat silently waiting for him to wake up.

In his dreams, Ying Zheng was always in a sea of ​​blood. He saw countless dead people asking for help from him, and he saw his mother soaked in blood, shouting and crying to him. He also saw the two young sons who had never met but died because of him, covered in blood, crying and crawling towards him.

After a cry of surprise, Ying Zheng woke up! Shiki was so frightened that he quickly stood up and asked

"Ying Zheng...what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"

His eyes were a little confused and confused. When he saw Shimiya return to his former gentle appearance, he was sure that he had broken free from the shackles of the nightmare.

"Ying Zheng, I'm really sorry just now. I was angry with you because of Fusu. You obviously meant well, but I..."

Before she finished speaking, Ying Zheng hugged her, and he leaned on her shoulder, looking for the familiar and reassuring smell. Ying Zheng felt extremely tired, both physically and mentally.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. If you don't like it, we can change the name. As long as you don't be angry with me anymore and don't leave me... everything is fine... everything is fine..."

In the end, Yingzheng and Shimi's first child was still named Fusu.

This was a name that carried Yingzheng’s blessings and good hopes, and Shikiya couldn’t bear to refuse. She looked at the baby in her arms, even though she felt uneasy, she had to face this reality.

If this child's future is full of thorns, then he will transform into a warrior and fight for him along the way!

After winter, Ying Zheng fell ill.

Ever since Shimi died suddenly and vomited blood last time, Ying Zheng's health has not been good. In addition, he was assassinated while on patrol. The subsequent blows made him overwhelmed and fell ill.

It's not that I have been lingering on the bed all day long, I just feel weak all over. The cold winter wind is always pouring into my body. I originally wanted to go to the main hall to meet the courtiers, but I also left it in the dormitory. After returning from Yongcheng, Ying Zheng had constant nightmares, which disturbed his mind. He listened to Li Si's suggestion and found some magicians to come to the palace to exorcise demons. He didn't know whether it was really useful or just a psychological effect. In short, the nightmares were much better.

The only comfort comes from Shikiya and Fusu.

Ying Zheng likes to see Shiya and Fusu playing together the most. He always likes to watch them play silently, and the previous unhappiness between the two about their names has disappeared.

Lu Buwei followed Ying Zheng back to Xianyang. Although he was not involved in Lao Ai's rebellion, he was always alert and felt that sooner or later he would be accused. Not only did he dismiss all the retainers, he no longer clung to his rights as before. , before Ying Zheng opened his mouth, Lu Buwei had already handed back many of his rights. From now on, Ying Zheng did not have to obtain Lu Buwei's consent for all major and small matters, but could make his own decisions.

There is only one most important right, military power. Lu Buwei has been reluctant to give it. He knows that if he loses his military power, then there will be no worries about his crimes in the Yingzheng Dynasty!

Li Si believes that if he wants to defeat him, this year is the most important moment, so as to save him from long nights and dreams and allow him to make a comeback.

Li Si and Lu Buwei eventually parted ways, and he became his right-hand man to assist the king. Although Lu Buwei was surprised, it was expected. What if he was entrusted by the late king and was the king’s father-in-law? Lu Buwei knew that he had too much power and would be overthrown sooner or later! In addition, the incident between Zhao Lijiang and Lao Ai broke out. How could a smart man like Ying Zheng fail to find out that the incident was related to him? He was in fear all day long and rarely met the king. He thought about how to escape all day long.

Back and forth, in the blink of an eye, Cheng Yu came back from South Korea. At least he succeeded in persuading South Korea to cede territory, and finally brought some good news to Ying Zheng.

For this reason, a grand banquet was held in the Qin Palace to welcome him and wash away his dust.

Ying Zheng dragged his still-unrecovered body to welcome Cheng Xi back in person. It was probably because of this long trip that he had gained a lot. When Ying Zheng and Shimi saw Cheng Xi again after being away for nearly half a year, he became even more... He looks like an adult now, his eyes are no longer sluggish and withdrawn, but become bright and lively.

Ying Zheng personally gave him the title "Lord of Chang'an" in front of all civil and military officials at the banquet, and also gave him a rich fief.

On a winter night, the beautiful dances, moving music, and warm wine at the banquet seemed to have washed away all the previous unhappiness. Everyone at the banquet was full of smiles, and congratulations were heard endlessly. Ying Zheng is sitting on the throne, and the future prosperity of Great Qin can be vaguely seen!

When everyone rejoiced until midnight, they finally dispersed. Shimi did not attend because she was with her children. When she learned that the banquet had dispersed, she went to the main hall in person to pick up Ying Zheng.

Zhu Cui accompanied her, and the two of them hurried there in the dark night. The late night in winter was naturally cold, but Shimi's heart was indeed warm. She knew that Ying Zheng was in a good mood today. If it was not good, it would be a banquet. Came back halfway.

Just halfway through, he bumped into Cheng Xi who had returned victoriously. He was returning to the palace with his concubine Liang Jue.

"Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for a long time..."

Cheng Xi took the initiative to say hello, and his etiquette and conversation became even better than before!

I haven't seen her for half a year. Although Cheng Yu is calm at the moment and treats her like an elder, deep in his heart, the feelings that have dried up have begun to ripple, ripple and impact. soul.

"Congratulations, young master! I heard... Your Majesty has named you the Lord of Chang'an. What a joy and congratulation!"

Shimi was naturally happy for him from the bottom of her heart. She glanced at Liang Jue and saw that her appearance was better than before. Now she was gentle and charming, and her eyes were filled with warmth. She must have been treated badly by Cheng Yu.

"This is also thanks to your Majesty giving Cheng Xi this opportunity. Since your Majesty trusts Cheng Xi so much, Cheng Xi will definitely live up to his trust! He will not let you down..."

His eyes were always looking at Shimiya uncontrollably, and the two of them looked at each other inadvertently. On this winter night, Shimiya stood under the candlelight, as if wrapped in a layer of warm yellow light. She was a first-time mother. , naturally her eyes were full of tenderness and love. Cheng Yu's heart trembled when he saw her, and found that she was more tender and beautiful than before.

Just as he was immersed in Shimi's rare tenderness, Liang Jue reminded him softly from the side.

"Sir, it's getting late, and we... shouldn't disturb the queen's rest."
