Chapter 109
Chapter 109
Xu Lingyi was already used to the tearful eyes of the empress dowager and the emperor.
Both mother and son are more emotional.
Usually, their identities are blessed, so in the eyes of others, the two of them are very majestic and inaccessible.
But Xu Lingyi saw their mother and son cry more than once, hugging her and crying.
She was surprised the first time, but then she got used to it.
In fact, Xu Lingyi can understand that for the emperor and the queen mother, children are like treasures that they can't reach, and she also takes a fancy to children.
"Yi'er." The emperor held her hand firmly again, and there seemed to be infinite affection and gratitude in his deep eyes.
Xu Lingyi was not surprised by the twin pills she took by herself, but at this moment she still showed a very surprised and happy expression.
In the next few days, after confirming that Xu Lingyi is fine.
The tense hearts of the emperor and the queen mother did not relax, especially the emperor, who had new worries.
She was obviously the one who was pregnant, but the bruises under his eyes got heavier and heavier, and he lost a little weight.
The courtiers felt more and more that the emperor might have a physical problem, and rumors began to appear that the emperor was seriously ill.
The voice of the adopted son in the court could hardly be suppressed.

Shen Qinghuai Mansion.
"Father." Shen Rou's voice was hoarse, and her face was a lot haggard, and she didn't look as flamboyant as before.
"You can't drink any more."
Shen Rou persuaded him outside the door, but Shen Qinghuai didn't open the door and didn't respond.
"How long are you going to drink?" Shen Rou's voice was choked with sobs. Since Xu Lingyi entered the palace, their Shen family has become a joke all over the capital.
In the past, they all said that Xu Lingyi had cheated on her father. After her father resigned, many people came to her door to continue looking for a mistress for her father.
They all said that Xu Lingyi was not good enough for her father.
But after knowing that Xu Lingyi had become an imperial concubine, their family instantly became embarrassed.
Even if those people discuss in private, they dare not say anything bad about Xu Lingyi.
Xu Lingyi has a distinguished status now, and His Majesty praises her for being virtuous and virtuous, so she is good in every way. The bad thing is her father, their Shen family.
Father couldn't accept that bitch entering the palace, nor could he accept being rejected by His Majesty, so he was depressed all day long.
Going out now, there is still the appearance of the general in the past.
Shen Rou couldn't stand Shen Qinghuai's appearance like this, and she couldn't accept the gap at all. When she went out in the past, many women in Beijing sought her out because of her family background.
How proud she was in the past, but now she is disliked by others.
She could only find a way to cheer up her father, after all, she knew that his father had the true ability to march and fight.
"Father, in the 30th year of Hedong and the 30th year of Hexi, Your Majesty has been infertile for many years, and his age is getting older. Now it is said that he is seriously ill. He will not be around one day."
Having said that, Shen Rou lowered her voice.
"The younger brother said that many people in the court are now persuading His Majesty to adopt a stepchild from the clan. His Majesty should not be able to withstand the pressure of the Manchu Dynasty. When the crown prince is confirmed, with his father's talents, he may not be able to make a comeback. Even if father likes..."
As soon as Shen Rou opened her mouth, she wanted to say that bitch.
But after thinking about Xu Lingyi's current status, she changed her words: "Father likes her, and I will wait for His Majesty in the future... My daughter heard that His Majesty has been ill twice. If you hold power, you may be able to renew your relationship with her, Daddy, Daughter, please cheer up and stop being like this all day long."
Although Shen Qinghuai was drunk, he still heard Shen Rou's words.
Ever since he saw the emperor hugging Xu Lingyi in Zhuangzi last time, he could no longer maintain his composure.
He also couldn't lie to his heart. At that moment, he really realized that he had fallen in love with her, and he always realized it later.
Shen Qinghuai also asked himself over and over again why he fell in love with her.
He thought that maybe it was because of her extraordinary beauty, or maybe it was because of her always gentle and demure temperament, or maybe it was because she was considerate to him in every detail.
When she was in the mansion before, he didn't have to worry about the trivial matters at home, and she would often deliver meals to him who was handling official business.
Her tenderness, consideration and nourishment were silent, but now that he lost it, he realized that he was particularly greedy for the warmth she gave him.
He also realized that she is good in everything, he has always been a person who values affection, and it is too cruel for him to lose after having it.
In fact, when he went to Zhuangzi to pick her up that day, he had already figured out that he wanted to start over with Xu Lingyi.
It was His Majesty who took advantage of his power to take her away. How could he not hate him? He hated himself and also hated His Majesty.
"Father!!" Seeing Shen Qinghuai who pushed the door out, Shen Rou froze in place.
Did my father listen to her?
"Ask someone to fetch water." Shen Qinghuai's voice was hoarse, and he hadn't taken care of it for many days. He was no longer as dignified as before, his appearance was dignified, and he seemed to be many years older.
Shen Qinghuai still didn't want to give up, what Shen Rou said might not be unreasonable, he still had illusions about Xu Lingyi.
He also wanted to verify whether the emperor was really seriously ill.
Of course the emperor was not sick, he was in good health, but he couldn't sleep well every day, and he really looked haggard.
"Yi'er, did I wake you up?" Seeing Xu Lingyi opened his eyes, the emperor said, "Go out and sleep, it's just about to go to court, so you can rest well."
The emperor lowered his voice, reached out to cover her with the quilt, and lowered his head to kiss her.
Xu Lingyi was indeed awakened by the emperor, he moved very lightly, but Xu Lingyi still felt him tossing and turning on the bed.
"Is Your Majesty going to announce the news of the concubine's pregnancy today?" Xu Lingyi asked.
The emperor hesitated for many days.
She is now five months pregnant, and her fetal phase has long been stable.
But when the emperor knew that she was pregnant with twins, he became more nervous and began to be suspicious all day long.
He was always worried that someone would kill her and their children.
"The emperor said, "Yi'er is about to give birth in more than four months. For the sake of the two children, I really want them to know, but I still have some worries in my heart. "
Xu Lingyi didn't want him to continue to struggle.
She spoke softly and held his hand, "Your Majesty, don't worry, there are many guards around the concubine, and the ministers should be happy to know that you have children, and they will not take action against the concubine and the children."
But Xu Lingyi's last miscarriage was still vivid in his memory, and the emperor always felt that too many people knew about it last time.
The emperor sighed heavily, and made up his mind, "I'll talk about it today, but I still need to add some more guards to follow Yi'er."
Xu Lingyi nodded.
This time in the morning, the emperor noticed that Shen Qinghuai had actually come.
He had indeed dismissed him once before, but he was worried about Xu Lingyi and his reputation, and Shen Qinghuai was drunk all day long, so it didn't look like he would come to court.
The emperor finally pretended to reinstate him as an official.
Unexpectedly, Shen Qinghuai actually came back to court again, it's good that he came, just to let him know the good news about himself and Xu Lingyi.
When the courtiers once again asked for his adoptive heir, the emperor no longer hesitated: "Ai Qing, in fact, the imperial concubine has been pregnant for more than five months, and she is pregnant with twins, so Ai Qing, don't worry about it anymore. My country is in a hurry, so don't say anything about stepchildren."
The courtiers froze in place.
The emperor focused on Shen Qinghuai's reaction, he seemed to be struck by lightning, his face was instantly livid, and his lips turned pale.
Seeing him like this, the emperor felt a little happier.
Shen Qinghuai can't take it anymore?
Soon Xu Lingyi will give birth to two children for him. In the future, his children will grow up safely and inherit his family. Shen Qinghuai will see their family happy and complete. How uncomfortable will he be then?
The emperor had a smile on his face.

The author has something to say that sometimes I can’t see it, so let’s post it at the end of the paragraph (>_<) The treasures are currently conceiving the next world, and I’m a little hesitant. Do you want the emperor like the first world, or the second world? Add a little emotional drama, I feel that if you add emotional drama, Gong Dou seems to write less (>_<)
