Tears rolled down uncontrollably. Why did you come?
" Ask him…to get out…" She was almost losing consciousness. She used all her strength to say to Zike," He can't die…ask him to get out…ask him to leave…"
Zi Ke heard her clearly, but he couldn't do that because once Yin Yicui went out, Yun Miao would kill her even more easily. He couldn't let her die. If he did, his heart would ache and he would be sad. Thus, he shook his head and said with tears in his eyes,""Princess, hold on a little longer, big brother will be back soon…Ah! I saw it! I can see its head. Princess, it's coming out soon. Use more strength…"
In the next moment, a little life separated from the mother's body and waved its arms to announce its birth to the world.
"It's a girl, a little princess!”Zi Ke said excitedly.
When the baby's cries resounded throughout the entire Night Tide Snow Palace, everyone stopped and listened in a daze. Yicui Yin took advantage of everyone's absent-mindedness and quickly ran to Xue Lin's side and carried her back to the bed. In a trance, Xue Lin saw his face. She felt as if she had raised her hand to touch him and said,""Why did you come back? Go quickly, take them away…never…come back…"
Her consciousness was completely blurred and finally returned to silence.
In her last consciousness, she seemed to hear the sounds of killing outside the palace shaking the sky. Tens of thousands of soldiers rushed into the palace like a tide. The sounds of swords, killing, and screams were endless. There was also Zi Ke's panicked screams. Yun Miao was probably going to kill her and her child. However, she no longer had the strength to open her eyes, nor did she have the strength to say a word. She felt a cold light flash in her face. It should be a knife that was flashing in a beautiful and cold arc. However, she had no strength to avoid it because the next moment, darkness completely swallowed her.
Was he really going to die here? She felt wronged and unwilling, but she had no choice! It had been more than a year since she fell into the mysterious black hole at the back of the mountain. Her family should have accepted her death by now, right? Would Mom and Dad blame Grandma when they came back? Can I go back if I die like this? Of course not. She immediately denied herself. She had not transmigrated. That black hole was extremely dangerous. Once she entered, she might be crushed into pieces.
Ah, could it be that people still have consciousness after death? He could still dream? He would even reminisce about his life? This, this, this was too much, right?
And there was someone calling her name. Oh my god, could it be that she had already become a ghost? Was her companion calling her? Or was it the Black and White Ghosts?
That person was still shouting,"Xue…Xue…"
It was Ziqing's voice. Ziqing is back?
She suddenly opened her eyes, and what greeted her eyes was her room. The sky blue muslin curtain, the long hanging curtain, and Zi Qing's still peerlessly beautiful face.
He didn't die? Then…
She ignored Zi Qing's gentle and happy smile and asked,""What's going on? Yun Miao, Yun Miao clearly killed me. Why am I still here?”
Zi Qing sat over and let her lean against his chest. He hugged her and said,""I deserve to die for giving you such a big fright.”
Xue Lin seemed to understand something and asked uneasily,""You really borrowed soldiers? How was that possible? In that situation, who would lend us troops? Let's not talk about this first. Are Bao Bao, Zike, and Yin Yicui okay?“
Zi Qing smiled. It was a smile of gratitude after a great disaster. "They're all fine."
Lin Xue sighed. "What about Yun Miao?"
"She…threatened Zike and our little princess. When the situation was critical, Ji Xuan had no choice but to kill her. He shot an arrow through her throat and died on the spot.”
" Ah..." Xue Lin covered her face with both hands and cried. How could this be? How could this be! She had promised Xue Yao that she would not take her life! What should he do…
"The situation was urgent…" Ziqing said.
"She's the emperor's daughter! "Heavens, how could this be? The proud daughter of heaven was like a cloud, dying because of a lowly person like her, how could she not feel pain? "What about Princess Yun Miao's family? We should settle them down properly."
Zi Qing's mouth was wide open, as if he had heard the strangest thing in the world. After a long time, he said,""Xue, why do you have such thoughts? Could her family stay? Of course, you have to get rid of the roots…"
"What do you mean? Ziqing, what do you mean? You killed them all? Who allowed you to do this?"
"You were unconscious at that time…"
"So you decided to kill them all on your own? How could you be so cruel? They were all men, children, and palace servants, but they're all dead…"
"Xue, listen to me. The winner is king and the loser is bandits. This has been the case since ancient times. If we don't kill them, they will come back and kill us! Besides, if Yun Miao won, wouldn't everyone from Night Tide Snow Palace be spared? If you don't kill her, she will kill you! Xue, you're already the emperor, you can't be merciful to the enemy…"
"Enough! Get out, Wei Ziqing, please get out immediately!”Xue Lin rudely interrupted him and pointed at the door. Two streams of tears slid down Zi Qing's face as he silently retreated. His heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
I did all this for you, for our child, for this family, but Xue, how could you do this to me?
The scorching hot June finally passed. The heat dissipated and the weather slowly became cool. Su Qin passed through the crowd in a panic and pushed open the door to enter the room. Xiaosi didn't stop her because Xue Lin had told her that Suqin could freely enter and leave the Night Tide Snow Palace and her residence.
The door closed, and Suqin saw Xue Lin leaning against the headboard with her eyes closed. She looked very tired.
" Your Majesty…" She called out tentatively.
Xue Lin sighed and opened her eyes without looking at her. Her eyes were empty. Su Qin paused for a moment. After a while, she came forward and said,"Did the emperor have an argument with his highness? In my opinion, this is very inappropriate. It's all thanks to the emperor's husband that the emperor was able to ascend to the throne smoothly this time, and the power in the court is almost all under the control of the prime minister…"
Didn't she just want to say that Ziqing couldn't be offended now? Xue Yao had also reminded her of what kind of person this Prime Minister was. She knew all this, but what was going on? How did she get pushed to the throne without knowing it? She couldn't figure it out no matter how she thought about it! "Left Disciple Su is right. Xuexi also understands the power of this relationship. Just now, she couldn't help herself. What should we do now?"
"It's good that the emperor can understand. Coax him, the emperor was the best at it, wasn't he?”
Xue Lin said to Xiaomei," Go and get my husband. Hurry up."”
Then, he asked Suqin about the matters in the imperial court. From Suqin, she learned that Yun Miao's forces had all been eliminated. The Prime Minister was in charge of the affairs of the imperial court, and the imperial city was still guarded by General Ji's troops. No one was allowed to leave the city. Xue Lin couldn't help but admire the Prime Minister's methods. She was able to clear the obstacles in such a short period of time and return to normal. She was really a talent in governing the country. If the throne was given to her…
"Not good, not good!" Xiaosi ran in to report in a panic, saying that the Imperial City was surrounded by troops from the country." They also said that they want to see Your Majesty!”
Suqin was also shocked. She looked at Xue Lin and Xiaosi in confusion. Why did the people from the country come? It was definitely not a good thing to come at this time.
"How many people came?" Xue Lin asked.
"I'm not sure. Anyway, there are a lot of them.”
"What about General Ji's army? Couldn't they stop him? Also, didn't you say that it's not convenient for me to meet guests now?”
"I did, but they didn't care. They said they would only believe it if they saw it for themselves.”
"Take a look personally? What an arrogant tone! Then who was the leader? Could it be that the Emperor of Li had come personally?“
"No, it's a great general from Li Country.”
Xue Lin didn't say anything more. She thought for a while and said,""Alright, get someone to bring that Great General here to see me. Remember, only bring him here.”
Xiaosi hesitated and didn't dare to agree, nor did he dare to go out. He could only look at Suqin for help. Suqin said to Xue Lin,""I'm afraid that's a little difficult."
Xue Lin leaned back against the bed and said lazily,""If you can't even do this well, there's no need for you to stay by my side. Get out."
It was not until evening that Zi Qing arrived. His face was expressionless. After he came in, he bowed and stood at the same place. He did not speak or look at her. He held his hands and looked down at the floor as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Xue Lin couldn't help but laugh when she saw his pitiful look. The unhappiness in her heart dissipated. Yes, he was not wrong. He did everything for her, but she said that about him. How could he not be sad? "Ziqing…Ziqing!" She called out softly. Realizing that he pretended not to hear her, she had to increase her volume and call him again until Ziqing really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Emperor, what orders do you have?”Zi Qing lowered his head and asked indifferently.
"I thought you were ignoring me? Come here, come, sit here, sit closer. Okay, Ziqing, it's my fault. I shouldn't have spoken loudly to you. I shouldn't have blamed you. You did all this for me. I was too petty. I promise I won't do this again.“
"You are the emperor, what did you do wrong? " I was wrong. I shouldn't have made the decision on my own. I shouldn't have said no to you. I shouldn't have…" His words froze because she had leaned her head on his thigh and was hugging his waist. She muttered," I'm sorry, Ziqing. It's my fault. Don't be angry with me, okay?"”
