Chapter 211 Heart-to-heart talk

Lu Lingchuan concentrated on making arrangements for his departure the day after.

At this time, Chun Nong came in with chicken soup. He had been cheered up for a while, but suddenly he became depressed again.

His pitiful eyes were chasing Shen Yao.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Li hurriedly pulled Xia Huaibei to leave.

"Miss, Your Majesty, the servants have also withdrawn." Chun Nong said and quickly disappeared from the door.

Shen Yao picked up the chicken soup, scooped it with a silver spoon, and fed it to Lu Lingchuan's mouth in small sips.

He opened his mouth in response. After only drinking half a bowl of soup, Lu Lingchuan shook his head and felt tired again.

"Your Majesty, please sleep for a while." Shen Yao tucked the quilt for him. With his body like this, he was still thinking about going on the road.

She sighed silently in her heart.

"I'll take a nap for a while, but don't leave." Lu Lingchuan looked at her with a pair of tired eyes, no longer as bright as before.

"Okay, as long as your majesty sleeps well and peacefully, I will guard you!"

Shen Yao said warmly, seeing that he closed his eyes obediently, and then gently touched Lu Lingchuan's face.

Her fingers suddenly tightened, and it turned out that he was holding her.

Shen Yao raised the corners of her lips and couldn't help complaining, "Your Majesty is not a child anymore, how can you be so pestering?"

A smile appeared on Lu Lingchuan's lips, indulged in reminiscing about the past,——

"Yao'er, you were sick when you were young and refused to take medicine. You always asked Brother Lingchuan to accompany you."

"The master was worried about you, so he told me to visit you more often."

Lost in memories, his smile deepened.

"So every time I leave the palace school, I will ride my horse and whip my whip and go to the Shen Mansion to see you."

"Later, when you go to the East Palace and you have a headache or a fever, you always have to stay with me."

Lu Lingchuan tightened Shen Yao's hand, savored the warm and soft touch, and said cheekily, "Yao'er, I have been with you so much. Now, if you stay with me for a while longer, you can repay me for the past years." A little companionship.”

"Okay, I will accompany Your Majesty."

Shen Yao said helplessly. She stared at her growing belly for a while, wondering what kind of child she would give birth to in the future with such an obsessed father.

Lu Lingchuan endured the pain and smiled suddenly, "As long as Yao'er is here, I will be at ease."

After he finished speaking, he stopped talking.

Soon, Shen Yao heard the sound of breathing, which became heavier and heavier. It turned out that Lu Lingchuan had fallen asleep.

She pulled her hand out and walked out of the room quietly.

"Xiao Xizi, go and invite Mr. Zhao Li and General Xia." Shen Yao made up her mind and never let Lu Lingchuan go on the road in the future.

After explaining to the two of them, she went to the side courtyard to find Shen Wei.

Under the six-lattice window, a beautiful woman in plain clothes was doing embroidery work.

When she saw Shen Yao, she quickly put down her needlework and called happily, "Sister!"

On the stretcher, a pair of colorful mandarin ducks are embroidered.

Shen Yao smiled. Before she left the cabinet, it was fashionable for noble ladies in the capital to give embroidered mandarin duck purses to their sweethearts.

She worked diligently and embroidered one for Lu Lingchuan.

Shen Yao held Shen Wei's little hand and said, "Sister Wei, when you come to Bashu this time, we two sisters haven't had a good conversation yet."

"This time General Xia escorted you all the way from the upper capital. My sister can see that he is very interested in you. I just don't know what you think of him?"

Shen Yao asked, looking at the cousin's face.

"Sister, don't mention him anymore. I don't want to get married now." Shen Wei replied.

"Do you not want to get married, or do you not want to marry General Xia?" Shen Yao asked again. Now that Xue Yue has made such a rebellious move, she can't let Shen Wei like him anymore.

"Sister, I don't want to marry him."

Shen Wei looked at her and begged, "Sister, Your Majesty listens to you the most. Please help me beg Your Majesty to terminate my engagement with General Xia!"

"The engagement was terminated? Are you waiting for Xue Yue?"

Shen Yao pinched a white mark on the palm of her hand. This sister was even more confused than she was back then.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense."

Even though Shen Wei said this, she lowered her head shyly, acquiescing to Shen Yao's words.

"Does Sister Kewei know? Who is the person who caused His Majesty to be so seriously injured?"

Shen Yao simply poked through the window paper to break her delusion, "If Xue Yue does such a treasonous thing, neither His Majesty nor the court will let him go."

"For the sake of your parents, you will never have anything to do with him."

"And that day, when you jumped into Yuhu Lake, General Xia touched your body in order to save you. I will not beg Your Majesty to withdraw the engagement."

Shen Yao said in a deep voice, "Unless you make it clear to General Xia yourself and then go to ask His Majesty with him, otherwise the engagement will remain there forever."

"Sister Yao, why do you have to force me!"

Shen Wei covered her face, tears leaking out from between her fingers.

"Think about it carefully. What is the importance of everything? Sister, I believe you will make a choice."

"I believe that General Xia will be a good man worthy of your life. Sister Wei, listen to my sister's advice and look at the people around you more."

Leaving her crying cousin behind, Shen Yao held her waist and walked out of the side courtyard.

At dinner time, Lu Lingchuan woke up, forced himself to eat some soup, and then summoned Xia Huaibei and Zhao Li to discuss setting out on the road.

In front of the emperor, the two of them responded without hesitation, then turned around and came over to beg Shen Yao.

The emperor was stubborn and insisted on returning to Beijing early the next morning. But the princess ordered that he must wait until he is well before he can go on the road.

Xia Huai had a sad face and almost cried, "Princess, Your Majesty can't touch me now, but when I return to the capital, I can't bear to settle accounts after the fall."

Shen Yao was angry, "Then there is something wrong with His Majesty on the road, can you bear the responsibility?"

Zhao Li also raised his hand to her, "Princess, I and General Xia cannot afford to suffer for delaying His Majesty's political affairs."

"Besides, the situation in Shangjing City is turbulent. If it continues, and His Majesty returns to take charge of the overall situation, I'm afraid the Grand Master will not be able to withstand it."

Shen Yao was extremely embarrassed for a moment and didn't know what to do.

"I have a way, but I need to aggrieve the princess." Xia Huaibei knelt down on one knee and raised his hands to her, "I also ask the princess to go back with your majesty."

"Firstly, you can take better care of Your Majesty on the road. Secondly, Your Majesty listens to the Princess's advice. If the dragon's body is in trouble, we will repair it on the spot..."

Xia Huaibei was rambling, and Shen Yao couldn't listen to what he said next, so she fell into thinking.

If she returns to Beijing this time, it will be early winter, which is not a good time to travel. With such a delay, after the Spring Festival, her belly will become bigger and bigger. How could she return to Jiazhou to give birth.

But she had to admit that what Zhao Li said made sense.

If Lu Lingchuan were allowed to follow these two generals on the road, I'm afraid he would become stubborn and not listen to anyone else.

"General Zhao, let me think about it before making a decision." Shen Yao looked at the deep autumn moon on the sky. She also missed her father a little.
