I can't, I can't

On the way back, the little emperor couldn't last long.

In a few breaths, he put down the biggest line of defense in Sheng Lingyu's arms, and passed out with cold sweat all over his head.

The feeling of sinking into the darkness is not good. Kang Jiangxue lost consciousness, but it feels more like she is in a light sleep. Any movement outside makes the little emperor worry. In the coma, she still frowns tightly, immersed In less obvious pain.

Kang Jiangxue felt that she had a dream, but when she woke up, she didn't remember what she had dreamed of. She just felt empty in her heart, as if she was extremely afraid of losing something important. He opened his eyes and shouted unconsciously.

So woke up.

Dazzling light rushed into his eyes, and Kang Jiangxue's vision was white. He stretched out his hand in panic, and soon someone held it tightly.

The little emperor looked in the direction, and Sheng Lingyu's appearance gradually became clear. Sheng Lingyu looked worried, and opened and closed his lips gently: "Axue, it's okay."

Together with Sheng Lingyu's voice and Ping Wuqi's voice, Ping Wuqi rushed to the little emperor and comforted him: "Your Majesty, calm down, it's over."

Kang Jiangxue's spirit couldn't keep up with the trance of thinking. He was silent for several seconds before recalling that he had escaped from the predicament and returned to Sheng Lingyu's side.

Rubbing his stomach reflexively, the pain that had ripped his liver and gallbladder before he passed out had dissipated, his stomach had already eased, and he had no intuition.

"Child!" The little emperor asked in surprise, "This child..."

Ping Wuqi hurriedly pressed the little emperor's shoulder, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, don't panic, it's fine, the child is fine, the child is saved."

"Although His Majesty was hit, he didn't hurt the root cause. In addition, he had a bad diet and rest for the past few days, which is why he reacted so badly. Take good care of him, and he will be fine."

Kang Jiangxue almost couldn't believe it, and asked after a few seconds: "...Really?"

Ping Wuqi showed a comforting smile and said, "Yes, really, don't be afraid, Your Majesty."

It seems that the good news is not true, Kang Jiangxue turned her head to look into Sheng Lingyu's eyes, Sheng Lingyu nodded to him, and then the little emperor felt a breath enter his heart, making him step on the ground in a trance.

Nothing.

The child is fine.

... so good, so good.

No matter whether it was Lu Qiao's rebellion or Yang Huo's persecution, the little emperor had always held his breath. Now, he finally released it. He didn't want to cry, but his voice trembled uncontrollably.Kang Jiangxue said: "I thought, I thought..."

Without saying anything later, Sheng Lingyu pulled him into his arms, the little emperor rested his chin on Sheng Lingyu's shoulder, and felt that Sheng Lingyu was trembling, so he hugged him even tighter, unable to let go no matter what.

At this time, Ping Wuqi pushed the cradle over from the side, and Chang Le, who had a small face and was wearing a beautiful little dress, waved carefreely in it, and Xiao Yu nestled next to her head, setting off each other, beautiful like a phantom .

When Kang Jiangxue caught a glimpse of Chang Le, his mind was shaken. He stared blankly for a while before reaching out to poke Chang Le's cheek. Chang Le giggled, instantly erasing all the hardships he had experienced.

very nice.

Kang Jiangxue raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, then suddenly thought of Haitang again. "By the way, where is Haitang? Why isn't Haitang here? Where is she?"

Sheng Lingyu said: "She's fine."

Ping Wuqi also said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, she is very well. She didn't suffer any injuries, but she was locked up for a while, and after several days of turnover, she was a little tired. She is resting at the back of the hall and will come back in a few hours."

"Is it."

Kang Jiangxue's heart fell to the ground, and she suddenly felt tired. Seeing this, she said, "Your Majesty, rest first, and the servant will prepare some soup and medicine."

Pingwu saluted and left. At this moment, the little emperor still held hands with Sheng Lingyu, and Kang Jiangxue lay back on the bed again, her eyes glued to Changle and Xiaoyu, refusing to leave.

The two of them seemed to be a symbol of peace and beauty, and for the little emperor, just looking at them was precious.

After several glances, Kang Jiangxue looked up at Sheng Lingyu. Sheng Lingyu didn't look at the child, but only fixed her eyes on the little emperor's face, her eyes were particularly deep and complex.

The little emperor felt that too many things were fixed in Sheng Lingyu's eyes, the two of them had a lot to say, but they both let the silence flow in the air.

Immediately, Kang Jiangxue touched her lower abdomen, lost her mind, and said, "I was thinking that Lu Qiao might embarrass Haitang, but I was wrong."

Sheng Lingyu responded, "Yes."

The little emperor asked again: "Where is he now?"

The little emperor would ask about Lu Qiao sooner or later, and Sheng Lingyu didn't think it was strange, he replied truthfully: "I'm in prison, including some leaders of the Yongzhou Army, all of them are in custody. Yang Huo is locked next door to him."

After Kang Jiangxue listened, she ignored Yang Huo's situation and only asked, "What do you plan to do with Lu Qiao?"

Sheng Lingyu answered without thinking too much. This question seemed to have been answered in his mind long ago: "The crime of treason should implicate the whole family, but Lu Houye and his wife were loyal to the country. Afterwards, Lu Qiao was blocked. If I was implicated, I will remove Lu Hou from his title and release the two of them out of Beijing."

"As for Lu Qiao..." Sheng Lingyu paused for a moment, and said calmly: "Let's go together, let him go to the countryside, demote him to be a commoner, be guarded for life, and never return to Beijing."

To Lu Qiao, falling from the favored son of heaven to a mortal is probably a longer and more torturous punishment than death. However, compared to the end of treasonous execution, it is too merciful.

Not only did the little emperor feel that he was tolerant enough, I am afraid that Master Lu and his wife would also feel grateful to Dai Deming. After committing such a big crime, but still alive, Lu Qiao is the only one in the whole world.

The little emperor had no objection, and even unconsciously looked at Sheng Lingyu's expression when he said this, but Sheng Lingyu's expression was very flat, and it was as easy as he promised to keep Lu Qiao's life. Little things that don't require resentment.

Kang Jiangxue didn't continue, he took Sheng Lingyu's hand and put it on his stomach.

Sheng Lingyu's hand was a little stiff, he hesitated for a moment, and then touched it lightly.

His movements were extremely gentle, but the expression on his face was quite dignified. When Lu Qiao was let go, his expression didn't change. In front of this child, Sheng Lingyu was vulnerable.

The little emperor saw a rush of complex emotions in the depths of his eyes, and couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Yulang, are you unhappy?"

Sheng Lingyu didn't answer directly, but was just in a daze, and said to him from left to right: "Your Majesty suffered a lot when he was growing happy. I originally thought that I would never have a second child."

The little emperor shook his head disapprovingly: "Now we have it, don't you want it?"

Sheng Lingyu was completely silent.

He seemed to want to answer obviously, but it wasn't that he didn't want to, but at this moment, he seemed to think of a lot, such as unbearable, pain, embarrassment, regret, all kinds of fluctuations, ups and downs.

Suddenly, Sheng Lingyu lowered her head and buried her head on the little emperor's shoulder: "I should have been by your side all the time, but this time, I almost..."

Kang Jiangxue didn't let him continue: "That's not your fault."

Sheng Lingyu paused and said, "But what if I say yes."

"..."

The meanings in these words were twisted and twisted, like a gust of wind that could stir up turbulent waves, but the little emperor deliberately ignored it as if he didn't hear it at all.

The little emperor moved into the bed and said, "Yulang, lie down and hug me for a while."

Sheng Lingyu's eyelashes moved slightly, and she lay down as she said.Kang Jiangxue leaned close to his chest, and put her face on Sheng Lingyu's chest. This action made him feel Sheng Lingyu's body temperature, and also made him hear the chaotic beating of Sheng Lingyu's heart.

The little emperor said: "I miss you."

Sheng Lingyu said, "Me too."

Sheng Lingyu also missed him, that's enough, Kang Jiangxue is willing to stop here, just hug Sheng Lingyu, and listen to the wind outside the window together.

During the time he was not paying attention, the weather was getting colder and colder, and before he knew it, winter had arrived.

However, Sheng Lingyu didn't want to stop, he asked the little emperor: "Axue, aren't you disappointed in me?"

Kang Jiangxue laughed softly: "You always ask me like this, but why should I be disappointed in you? I can't help but think now, if... If only I had treated you better at the beginning, it would be fine because I didn't have the courage .”

"I don't think it's a sin to have a child for you. I think it's like I'm atoning for my sin if I can suffer for you and have a child for you."

Sheng Lingyu didn't make a sound for a long time, Kang Jiangxue called him, "Yulang, go to sleep."

Sheng Lingyu hugged His Majesty the Emperor and guarded his little daughter by his side, barely closed her eyes, and nodded silently.

This afternoon, everything has settled down.

The cold wind blows outside and the warmth inside.

The two of them cuddled together, only each other, and in the future, no one else could get in.

In the next half a month, the little emperor lived a very peaceful time.

Although the palace and the imperial city had suffered disasters and needed to be rebuilt, the flames of war had already been extinguished, and all the people who might cause a storm were no longer the same. In comparison, some chaos in the court was not worth mentioning.

With Sheng Lingyu on the side assisting, all the civil and military officials who were released quickly returned to their posts, the political machine was running, and everything was back on track.

It is worth mentioning that because Sheng Lingyu returned to the palace in time for the battle, most of the family members of the officials were rescued in time. Everyone in the court did not say anything to Sheng Lingyu on the surface, but was very grateful to him in private, even when they were extremely against Sheng Lingyu at the beginning The new parties also have a lot less running and gossip.

Zheng Lanyu didn't accept Sheng Lingyu's affection, and she still didn't have a good face towards Sheng Lingyu, but after a few days, Sheng Lingyu offered to remove the central platform in the court, and Zheng Lanyu, who was as arrogant as she was, was speechless.

"...Well, he was the one who clearly split the power back then, but now he is the only powerful minister left, and he is pretending to return the government again. His good reputation has been taken over by him, and the junior minister has become a bad person."

"Extremely cunning, what!"

He refused to accept, but the voice of opposition did disappear, and the whole court took on a new look, led by Sheng Lingyu, and entered a new peaceful pattern.

Kang Jiangxue focuses on her body and only participates in political affairs appropriately.

This second-born baby who is good at watching the atmosphere has been beaten by Yang Huo head-on, so he has to be taken care of and checked every day.

He was taking a nap in the palace that day, Sheng Lingyu kept him awake, wiped his cheeks, and said casually: "It's been negotiated, there is only one imperial decree left."

The little emperor paused for a moment, and asked, "It's already been decided? How do you judge?"

Sheng Lingyu said: "Lu Qiao's whole family was exiled, Prince Ning's mansion was ransacked and destroyed, and Yang Huo was cut in half."
