Chapter 231 You and the prince go out to play, be careful
After an unknown amount of time, Shangguan Ziling looked at Mo Shaoxie with accusatory eyes, "You bastard!" There was a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction in her voice, and she was obviously dissatisfied with his behavior.
Mo Shaoxie hugged Shangguan Ziling, feeling a little distressed. He knew that he couldn't control himself and made her suffer. He comforted her softly, "Ling'er, I'm sorry, it's my fault." His tone was full of apology and guilt.
Shangguan Ziling's anger subsided a little after hearing his apology. She looked into his eyes and said, "Can you be more restrained in the future? I'm so tired!"
Mo Shaoxie nodded and said, "Well, I will restrain myself next time."
"Okay, Ling'er, let's go take a hot spring bath." Mo Shaoxie suggested. He hoped to relieve her fatigue and discomfort by taking a hot spring bath.
Shangguan Ziling looked at him, feeling a little hesitant. Taking a hot spring bath? Would this man come again?
Without waiting for her to hesitate, Mo Shaoxie carried her towards the hot spring pool, his movements gentle and considerate.
Mo Shaoxie saw the defensiveness in her eyes and chuckled, "I promise to only hold Ling'er in the hot spring and do nothing else."
The hot spring pool was filled with warm mist, which made people feel comfortable and relaxed. He gently put her into the water and jumped in himself.
Shangguan Ziling relaxed her body after hearing this. The hot spring water was warm and comfortable, making Shangguan Ziling feel a little comfortable. She leaned on Mo Shaoxie's shoulder, enjoying the tranquility and warmth. She felt that her body and mind were relaxed and relieved.
The two of them snuggled together in the hot spring pool, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
After soaking for a while, Mo Shaoxie lowered his head and his eyes fell on Shangguan Ziling who was leaning on his shoulder. She had fallen asleep without him knowing when.
Her face looked particularly soft in the mist, her long eyelashes trembling gently, as if she was having a sweet dream. Her breathing was steady and rhythmic, making people feel peaceful and at ease.
Mo Shaoxie felt a surge of tenderness in his heart. He carefully lifted her up and let her lean against the edge of the pool. He gently washed her body, each touch full of love and care. He gently dried her skin with a towel.
He put on her soft underwear, and was very careful with every move, for fear of waking her up. He held her in his arms, feeling her body temperature and breath, and his heart was filled with satisfaction and happiness.
Mo Shaoxie carried her out of the hot spring pool and returned to the room. He gently put her on the bed and pulled the quilt over her.
He sat beside the bed, looking at her quietly and listening to her even breathing. After a long while, Mo Shaoxie got up and left the room and went to the study.
Mo Shaoxie sat on the carved chair in the study, his eyes deep and cold, like an icy lake in winter, no one could see its depth. The study was filled with a faint scent of ink, intertwined with the fragrance of flowers outside the window, creating a unique atmosphere.
Mo Feng lowered his head and stood beside Mo Shaoxie.
Xue Zhiyan walked slowly into the study, his steps light and steady.
Mo Shaoxie asked calmly, "Is the medicine ready?" His voice was calm and low, like thunder in the distance, making people feel a sense of majesty and irresistibility.
Xue Zhiyan slowly took out the porcelain bottle from his arms. His movements were graceful and calm. He presented the porcelain bottle with both hands and said, "Your Highness, it's ready!"
Mo Feng stepped forward and took the porcelain bottle. His movements were cautious. There was still no expression on his face, but a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
Mo Shaoxie ordered coldly: "Mo Feng, go and let the prince enjoy it." There was no warmth in his voice, as if he was giving a cold order.
Mo Feng's body stiffened and he felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet.
He felt sympathy for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The medicine for being childless was like a bolt from the blue for a crown prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the crown prince, and if a crown prince had no children, his position would be in jeopardy.
Mo Shaoxie's eyes swept towards Mo Feng, and his gaze was as sharp as a sword, making people dare not look directly at him.
Mo Feng immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will go right away."
Mo Shaoxie looked at Mo Feng's departing back and said, "You leave too."
"Yes." Xue Zhiyan stepped out.
A secret guard quietly appeared in front of Mo Shaoxie's study. He walked into the study and reported to Mo Shaoxie: "Master, Zhang Miaomiao's family couldn't stand the torture and they are all dead."
When Mo Shaoxie heard the news, he simply responded, "Yeah." There was no expression on his face, as if this matter was not important to him.
Seeing that Mo Shaoxie had no other instructions, the secret guards quietly retreated.
Silence returned to the study room again, with only Mo Shaoxie sitting there alone, lost in thought.
After a while, Mo Shaoxie came back to his senses from his deep thoughts. He stood up, sorted out his clothes, and prepared to return to Xinlingyuan.
He walked out of the study, crossed the corridor, and came to the door of Xinlingyuan.
He pushed open the door and walked in.
The room was dark, with only a faint candlelight illuminating the bed.
Mo Shaoxie saw that the thin blanket on the person on the bed had already slipped off, and her skin looked particularly white under the candlelight. His heart softened and his expression became gentle.
He took off his coat, climbed gently onto the bed, and lay down beside Shangguan Ziling. He gently hugged her, feeling her warmth and breath. He closed his eyes, his heart filled with peace and satisfaction.
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the gap in the curtains and sprinkled into the bedroom of the Regent's Palace.
Shangguan Ziling slowly opened her eyes, with a trace of tiredness on her face. Mo Shaoxie beside her said lovingly, "It's still early, Ling'er, why don't you take a nap?"
Shangguan Ziling shook her head and said, "I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion today. I want to see my mother and give her some medicine that I made for her health."
"Okay, we'll wait for you to come back and leave later."
Shangguan Ziling nodded, and she and Mo Shaoxie got up, tidied up, washed up, and had breakfast together.
Shangguan Ziling took Qiu Kui and Dong Qing in the carriage of the palace and slowly drove out of the gate of the Regent Palace. The carriage bumped on the stone road, and Shangguan Ziling's mood fluctuated with it.
After driving for a while, the carriage finally arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Shangguan Ziling couldn't wait to get off the carriage, followed closely by Qiu Kui and Dong Qing.
They passed through the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion and came to the inner courtyard.
Beichen Xue's identity is special, and the outside world has believed her to be dead over the years. Therefore, the news that Beichen Xue returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and was not dead was not made public. Only a few confidants in the Prime Minister's Mansion who were trusted by Shangguan Dong knew about it.
When Beichen Xue saw Shangguan Ziling, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in her eyes. She quickly walked forward, hugged Shangguan Ziling, and said, "Ling'er, you're back! Why didn't you let me know in advance? Have you had breakfast?"
Shangguan Ziling snuggled in Beichenxue's arms and said, "Mom, I've had breakfast!"
Beichen Xue took Shangguan Ziling's hand and walked into the inner room.
She looked at Shangguan Ziling carefully and said, "Ling'er, when will you and the prince set out?"
Shangguan Ziling said: "Mom, I have made some tonics for you. Your health has been very poor over the years and you need to recuperate slowly. I think I will set off after I get back."
Beichen Xue was touched when she heard this. She took the medicine bottle from Shangguan Ziling and said, "Mother knows. You and the prince are out, please be careful."
Shangguan Ziling snuggled in Beichen Xue's arms and said "hmm". The mother and daughter talked about some intimate things, which were warm and touching.
Shangguan Ziling reluctantly left the Prime Minister's Mansion and returned to the Regent's Palace.
