Chapter 477 Make up your mind and don’t let go!
Seeing Shen Ninghua slightly stretching her arms and walking directly to the inner room to rest, Baili Junyi couldn’t help but tickle the corners of his lips until he couldn’t see her back before he lowered his head and quickly dealt with the zhangzhi on his desk.
His speed was extremely fast, and he was able to understand what to do with it with a rough sweep, and even as he read more and more zhangzhi, a network of officials was presented in his mind, though some were incomplete, but roughly similar.
After spending about half an hour, he closed the last zhangzhang, stood up and walked towards the inner room, and only when he reached the screen did he react violently that his status was not suitable to enter the inner room, right? However, remembering every move after seeing Shen Ninghua, the urge in his heart to see her sleeping face became more and more violent.
He couldn’t help but convince himself in his mind, I’m just going in to take a look, in case Ning Hua isn’t covered, in case she’s caught in a nightmare, in case there’s an assassin? Ahem, the last point shouldn’t be possible, but it was still necessary to take a look.
Thinking this way, he immediately felt that he should go in, and directly walked around the screen into the inner room. The inner room was simply decorated, but it revealed a cozy atmosphere. His complexion grew softer and softer, and he couldn’t help but look towards the bedside.
Shen Ninghua is half pillow arm lying on the bed, in the bright yellow bed under the background, her figure appears more and more thin, beautiful face without the usual cold, so that she looks extraordinarily fragile and petite. He could not help but ease his footsteps to sit on the bedside, feeling the bedside of the shallow breathing sound, the heart rose up full of heartache: she is just a weak woman, but with a single thin body to bear the pressure of the entire court, coupled with the emperor who does not know the whereabouts of which the hardship can be imagined.
Shen Ninghua slept soundly, since Baili Junyi’s imperial expedition, she had never slept so sweetly, and was in a daze, suddenly felt someone around her, and could not help but struggle to open her eyes, and was confronted with Baili Junyi’s concerned eyes.
Shen Ninghua slightly opened her mouth, tears instantly gushed out along her eyes: ”Jun Yi, you’re back …” said, fiercely rising to hug the person in front of her.
Tears penetrated his skin along his shirt, burning his heart. Baili Junyi reached out and swept her into his arms, feeling the thin body in his arms, his heart aching beyond measure. He completely put the issue of him being a double out of his mind and only thought about comforting the woman in front of him who was trembling with tears, “Ninghua … don’t cry …”
Feeling the light caressing movement behind her, Shen Ninghua snapped awake. She had just slept in a daze, and coupled with the effects of her dream, she had forgotten that at this time, Baili Junyi no longer had any memories, and it was only now that she came to her senses and directly pushed him away, “Who let you in?”
Baili Jun Yi froze, seeing her sober look, his heart was extremely regretful, at the same time, he became more and more cynical about the missing emperor, “Since I am a double, I have to play the role of a double perfectly, the news of my return to the palace will spread tomorrow, if I go to rest somewhere else tonight, tomorrow there will still be rumors that the empress is out of favor?”
Shen Ninghua skimmed her lips in her heart: you’re looking for a good excuse!
Seeing Shen Ninghua’s silence, Baili Junyi said, “If such rumors were to spread, it would be extremely unfavorable for you right, so I must rest in the inner room.”
Shen Ninghua nodded and compromised, “Well, there’s a soft couch over there, you sleep over there.”
“Good.”
Shen Ninghua lay down again, but always felt a hot gaze falling on her, even if she had already extinguished the candle flame, it still made her unable to ignore it, silently hooked the corner of her lips, and her heart was angry and annoyed, humph, when you recover your memory, I will slowly settle the score with you!
Baili Junyi half leaned on the soft couch, his eyes still slightly glowing in the darkness, the heartbeat in his chest puffing and puffing reminding him of his emotions. It was only after a long time had passed and the person on the bed had fallen into a deep sleep that he withdrew his sight and began to think in the dark night.
Although he had no memory, he was not stupid. He understands what his previous mood represents, that kind of feelings extraordinarily intense, in front of Shen Ninghua, he seems to have lost control of himself, being watched by her feels like a blazing fire in the chest, being cold by her feels like ice in the arms, this kind of happiness and sadness are not under his control, certainly because he loves the woman in front of him miserably.
Only, his own identity was a major problem. He was just a stand-in, a stand-in for her husband. This made him feel extraordinarily depressed, and even thinking about the fact that once the emperor returned, he was the one who would go on to play a role, and Shen Ninghua would be embraced by someone else, he tyrannized and wanted to kill. Since he had fallen deeply in love with the woman in front of him, he had to find a way to get it.
Besides, the heavens are helping him aren’t they? That deserving emperor had disappeared, as long as he was allowed to never be found, then his own identity would be that of an emperor, that of Ning Hua’s husband! There were also those three children, although they were not his own bloodline, they were Ning Hua’s bloodline ah, and he himself was extremely fond of them, and would treat them as if they were his own in the future.
Since this was the case, then the next step would be to work hard to brush up on goodwill! Determining his future course of action, Baili Junyi’s mind gradually smoothed out and secretly narrowed his eyes, an imperative light flashing under his eyes.
Early the next morning, Hongling was at the door calling Shen Ninghua to get up. Baili Junyi on the soft couch opened his eyes and looked towards the somewhat confused Shen Ninghua by the bedside.
Yesterday’s big ups and downs, and tossed for a long time, Shen Ninghua woke up only to feel unusually tired, is slightly sitting to wake up, Baili Junyi then walked to her side, “Today’s early morning dynasty I go, yesterday look at those zhangzhang, above the court is extremely unsettled, it should be given to those officials to give them a wake-up call.”
Shen Ninghua came back to her senses and raised her eyes to look at him, “Are you sure? Those officials are not simple, if you are not careful, you will fall into their ways, and you don’t have any memories now.”
Baili Junyi smiled gently, “Don’t worry, you sleep for a while longer and make up for your sleep. Later, after I get off the court, I will come to accompany you for breakfast.”
Shen Ninghua raised the tip of her eyebrows: why was this tone so familiar, could it be that her memory had returned?
Looking at Shen Ninghua’s skeptical gaze, Baili Junyi’s heart was a little embarrassed, “Didn’t you also say that I should not tell the children the truth, and that when they know I’m coming back today, they’ll definitely come to pester for breakfast, right, so I’ll stay with them to keep them happy and entertained.”
Shen Ninghua withdrew her gaze and nodded, asking Hongling to bring in the dragon robe and hair crown and such, and personally help him change into it.
Baili Junyi smiled and accepted Shen Ningshu’s help, his heart is beautiful: to have a wife like this, what more could a man ask for? He made plans yesterday, and now has completely Shen Ningshua and the children as their own, not at all differentiated, only, in the absence of Shen Ningshua’s heart before, do not dare to show it, lest counterproductive.
However, Shen Ninghua had spent so much time with Baili Junyi that she simply knew his emotions like the back of her hand, how could she not see his overflowing happiness. Looking at his footsteps fluttering as he went to the court, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and didn’t know what this person had thought about last night, and looked nervous today.
Hongling brought the water basin in and served Shen Ninghua to wash up, “Your Highness, the Emperor, he has no memory nowadays, going to the court may cope?”
“I’ve seen him reviewing the zhengzhi yesterday, although he has no more memories, but he is Baili Junyi in the end, don’t worry, it’s fine.”
“Your Highness, last night, the palace maid from the Jade Hall came to report that Tu Su Qing Li wanted to see your Highness, but was blocked by the slave girl, and early this morning the palace maid was asked to come over to report again, and is now waiting outside.”
Shen Ninghua rinsed her mouth with the cup, spat the water into the spittoon, and took the pad and gently wiped the corners of her mouth, “Don’t pay any attention to it, let her wait a bit.”
“Good, the slave girl will go and arrange it.”
Before Baili Jun Yi had even left the court, Boss and Xiao Bao hurriedly ran over and grasped the door of the hall to look inside. Not seeing Baili Jun Yi, the happiness on their faces instantly disappeared for the most part.
“My son sees his mother.”
“Get up, why did you come over so early?” Shen Ninghua called them to the front and asked knowingly.
Xiao Bao looked around and didn’t see Baili Jun Yi couldn’t help but redden his eyes, “Mother, did daddy leave again?”
Shen Ninghua hurriedly took her into her arms, “There was no leaving, your father went to the court, and said that he would accompany you guys to have breakfast later, who knew that you guys came this early.”
Hearing that Baili Junyi didn’t leave, the two children immediately smiled with open brows, “Mother, we’ll wait here for father.”
“Good.”
Above the front court, the moment Baili Junyi appeared, he shocked the entire court as if they were wooden chickens. Looking at the man on top of the throne with a cold expression, they could hardly believe their eyes.
With a sweep of his eyes, Baili Junyi took their reactions into his eyes, “How come, all of you love ministers don’t see the slightest bit of happiness when you see me return?”
“I dare not, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live.”
Baili Jun Yi hooked his lips: ”Long live? I can’t claim to be long-lived, I’m only in my twenties and there are already people who are anxious to set up a crown prince for me, speaking of which, all the Secretaries are really making me sad, I’ve been on the throne for less than half a year, and you’re all anxious to pledge allegiance to the new ruler.”
The following ministers hooted and hollered and knelt down a piece, “micro ministers do not dare, micro ministers ten thousand deaths.” They also did not expect, Baili Jun Yi disappeared for more than a month, but still able to return safely ah, could it be that the emperor really got the blessing of the true dragon?
Baili Jun Yi hooked the corner of his lips, knocked the officials, he also did not know to criticize, but the words he said were clipped, so that the faces of a group of officials were white and red, red and green, I think that for the next period of time, they will all be honest.
After dealing with the officials in the court, Baili Junyi did not make any stops and directly returned to the rear chambers, he promised to accompany Ning Hua and the child for breakfast.
Sure enough, before he even entered the hall, Little Treasure ran out upside down, “Daddy, you’re back, Little Treasure misses you so much.”
Baili Junyi bent down to pick her up and directly kissed her little face, “Daddy also wants Little Treasure, just got off the court, and ran straight over, running all hungry.”
Xiao Bao smiled and narrowed his eyes, hearing that his own father was hungry, he hurriedly turned around and shouted, “Aunt Hong Ling, father is hungry, quickly let someone serve breakfast!”
“Yes, slave girl will go now.”
