Chapter 706 World 6: The Weak and Helpless Crown Princess (146)
Chapter 706 World 6: The Weak and Helpless Crown Princess (146)
The palace servants present could no longer recall what exactly happened that day.
What they vaguely remember are all things that cannot be described, and it would be better if they were forgotten.
Of course, only those with a bad memory can continue to survive in this palace.
And in their memories, there are still a few images that vaguely restore the truth of that year.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was furious and extremely rebellious. He dared to beat the Emperor violently, punching him hard and drawing blood. He almost went to the extent of regicide, and they couldn't pull him apart.
The emperor did not fight back, and looked extremely sad. He did not even try to dodge, but just endured it.
They suspected that even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really beat someone to death, the Emperor would not retaliate.
The palace maids were all scared to death.
If something happens to the emperor, none of them will be able to escape and will be buried with him.
Fortunately, General Manager Futai was smart. Seeing that the palace servants were unable to pull the couple apart, he brought in the young prince Shengyu in time and successfully prevented a tragic case of patricide.
"Father, Grandpa Emperor, you guys... stop fighting, wow wow wow, Yu'er is scared, stop fighting, Yu'er doesn't want you to fight, mother... and mother..."
The tender child's voice finally awakened Sheng Changfeng, who had lost his mind. His pupils trembled and he stared blankly at the crying baby on the ground.
At that moment, a beam of light opened the black hole in his heart and awakened his memory.
That is--
Sheng Changfeng, like a controlled puppet, walked towards the little baby and picked him up from the ground.
He looked at his son who was crying breathlessly in his arms, patted his back gently, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Yu'er..."
"Don't cry, your mother will be distressed if you cry too much."
Then, as if he had found a reason to convince himself, as if he had given himself hope to live, he continued.
"Yes, as long as we take good care of you, your mother will wake up."
On the other side, Sheng Jin, who was surrounded by palace servants and was being cared for, waved everyone away.
Sheng Jin wiped the blood off his face, got up from the ground, and limped back to Liu Lingxi's bed.
It seemed as if he could no longer feel the pain in his body, or rather, he could no longer feel any external stimulation.
Until now, he still hasn't realized that such a vibrant person is about to die and be gone forever?
How can it be?
It was clear that yesterday, she was stepping on his chest and proudly saying that he was only worthy of being a dog by her side, and he agreed with a gasp.
Even if it was a dog, he was willing to do it, and even prepared the reins, waiting for Xier to come and train it personally.
Now, why is that person lying here quietly?
"Xi'er..."
"Wuwuwuwu, mother..."
"Xi'er..."
"Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet."
Just when everyone was immersed in the sad atmosphere, a clear and beautiful voice, barely catching their breath, sounded from their ears.
The voice was very weak, but it seemed to have magical power that could control everyone's emotions.
In an instant, they all shut up and looked towards the beautiful figure on the bed.
"Mother——"
While the two men were still in a daze, Xiao Yuer had already quickly climbed onto the bed and snuggled up to Liu Lingxi affectionately.
His chubby little face was covered with tear marks and his eyes were still watery, but he was extremely happy.
"Mother, it's great that you woke up. Yu'er was scared to death."
"Yu'er thought you didn't want me anymore, mother~"
The little baby is so delicate and pretty, usually dressed neatly and cleanly. He can't stand playing in the mud and feels dirty. But now he has snot and tears running down his face, and he doesn't look as clean as before.
But he didn't care whether he was clean or not. He only knew that his mother almost died just now.
Now we are all happy to have found what we lost.
"Yu'er, don't cry. Your face is all dirty. Mother won't abandon you. She still wants you to get married, have children, and grow up well."
Liu Lingxi looked distressed, and she gently wiped away the tears from Sheng Yu's face with her slender jade fingers. Her brows were slightly furrowed, and the worry in her heart did not ease at all.
She knows her own body well, and it can be said that she is now at the end of her strength.
She was born like this, weak and sickly, a weakness she brought from the womb.
Later, she became unwell again when she gave birth to Yu'er. Although the imperial physician did not say it, she knew in her heart that she could not have another child.
The treatment could indeed temporarily relieve the pain, but her body was like a hole. After patching it up here, it would leak out there, and it could not be cured at all.
After being poisoned, she suddenly felt her body collapse, but she only managed to hold on because she didn't want to miss Yu'er's growth.
Fortunately, she was not destined to die, and she managed to hold on until this moment, which is enough.
The wish is fulfilled.
As the saying goes, "Long illness makes one a doctor." In her previous life, she had read many medical books. Although she didn't learn anything else, she did learn the acupuncture method to change the pulse. However, she never had the opportunity to practice it.
But it is used in this life.
Time is also destiny.
"Yu'er, go wash up first. Mommy has something to say to your daddy. Come back later, okay?"
"Uh-huh."
The little boy Sheng Yu has learned to comfort himself. With red eyes, he sniffed, clenched his little fists and said to himself to encourage himself.
"Yu'er must come to see mother clean and tidy. Mother loves me the most."
He was accompanied out by the palace maids brought by Futai, and the palace soon became quiet.
"Your Highness, I will serve you."
"Okay, I'm going to take a nice shower. Mother likes me to smell nice."
Many palace people noticed that something was wrong and looked at the little prince's back with some worry, but they couldn't say anything.
Oh, I hope the queen gets better soon.
*
After everyone left, Sheng Jin didn't know whether he should leave or not, because Xier didn't even give him a glance, let alone keep him.
It seemed that, just like his position in her heart, he was dispensable and everything was forced by himself.
After waiting for a long time and not hearing Xier say anything, Sheng Jin knew that she was bothered by him, so he got up from the ground and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he took a deep look at the beauty on the bed, wanting to engrave her appearance in his heart.
Just as he turned to leave, the voice he had been waiting for the most rang out.
"Wait, you stay too."
After hearing this, Sheng Jin suddenly stopped, his expression was dull, and he turned his head back slowly, as if he had not moved for a long time and was rusted.
Fortunately, everything was not his illusion, it was real, Xier really allowed him to stay.
Does that mean that there is a place in Xier's heart... that belongs to her?
With such extravagant hopes, Sheng Jin stayed and knelt with Sheng Changfeng.
"I know you are all wonderful people, the most noble and affectionate men in the world, especially you, Changfeng."
Sheng Changfeng hurriedly leaned over and held Liu Lingxi's hand. She was so thin and slender that he had ignored her for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I should have noticed it earlier. I'm sorry that I couldn't take good care of you in Chonghua Palace. It's all... it's all my fault."
By the end of his speech, Sheng Changfeng's voice was choked with sobs, tears of self-blame soaked his clothes, and his eyes were red beyond recognition.
The man who had always been high and mighty, and had a bright and handsome appearance, now had completely lost his image.
But he didn't care, he just wanted his wife to come back and be with him.
"Xi'er, please, please, don't leave my side. The wind cannot live without you."
Sheng Changfeng held Liu Lingxi's hand tightly, and then tightened it again, as if by doing so he could get his lover back.
He just wanted to grasp the last glimmer of hope...
"Don't be silly, you must assist our Yu'er. He is still young, and you must be tolerant of him when he is ignorant, even if... cough cough..."
It was still too difficult to say a long string of words. Liu Lingxi paused and managed to steady her breath.
She had to hurry because she felt her vitality was slipping away... She couldn't hold on for much longer...
"Changfeng, you are still young. I know you may have other women in the future, but you must protect our Yu'er. Otherwise, I will die with regrets!"
It was a childish threat, but it made the man cry.
Sheng Changfeng wiped away his tears, but they seemed to be gone. Tears slid down his cheeks and dripped onto Liu Lingxi's hands...
