Your Majesty is happy [rebirth]

Chapter 39

Zhaode Hall.

Ling Qiyou stepped into the door of the dormitory after he came back from court. Xiao Mantou and Xiao Shizi had already crawled to his feet. He smiled and bent down to pick up the little guys one by one with each hand, and carried them inside.

The ground in the middle of the hall was full of toys for the two little guys. Shen Lexin lay down on the ground to build building blocks for them, with a face full of helplessness. Ling Qiyou stepped forward, put them on the ground, and slapped each of them on the buttocks, making them feel helpless. They went to play by themselves, and then asked Shen Lexin with a smile: "Is it annoying to have children?"

Shen Lexin said helplessly: "I just set it up, but they pushed me down again, and I had to set it up again. If I didn't set it up, they would cry louder than the other."

For the past half month, Shen Lexin and Xiao Shizi still live in Qitai Hall, and during the day they bring Xiao Shizi to Zhaode Hall to play with Xiao Mantou. Shen Lexin is not as patient as Ling Qiyou for children, even if it is his own son, it is troublesome. Ling Qiyou can see this immediately, and then he can't help but think that when he was a child, he was always very considerate to himself, no matter how much he cried or pestered him, he never even frowned. Compared with when she was a child, Shen Lexin has really changed a lot.

Ling Qiyou sat down cross-legged, helped him build up blocks, and chatted with him casually: "King Xuan, he should be back next month."

Shen Lexin was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Ling Qiyou, suddenly smiled, and asked him: "Your Majesty, then Eunuch Chu is the coach, right? Why isn't he coming back next month?"

Stared at by his narrow eyes, Ling Qiyou was a little embarrassed, and turned his eyes away: "He is not important."

"This way..." Shen Lexin dragged her voice, smiled and hugged the little mantou who crawled to her feet, and stared at him with big eyes, the little mantou was robbed by him before, but she was not afraid of him at all. Now she was still grinning at him stupidly, Shen Le was also happy, hugged him tightly, kissed him on the face, and said to Ling Qiyou: "Little Mantou looks very similar to His Majesty when he was young... Except for the eyes... the eyes... are more like Xiao Mantou's other father..."

A flash of surprise flashed in Ling Qiyou's eyes, and then he understood, that's right, since he could guess that Xiaoshizi was born by him and Ling Jing, there was no reason why he couldn't guess where Xiaomantou came from, but this matter They never talked about it, it was just a tacit understanding.

Moreover, how to put it, Ling Qiyou felt a little awkward. As a man, he gave birth to a child for another man, even though he has completely accepted Xiao Mantou now, he still finds it difficult to speak.

But seeing Shen Lexin's calm expression at this moment, he also asked, "Did you give birth to King Xuan?"

Shen Lexin smiled even more happily, hugged the little steamed bun, and pinched her son's little face, and admitted straightforwardly: "Yes..."

"...Are you willing?"

"That's right, I took the medicine myself, just to give birth to a son for him."

"... You were kidnapped by him from the battlefield, right?"

Shen Lexin habitually reached out and brushed her hanging hair, curled her lips: "Well, and the first time, it was in the military camp, and he raped her."

Ling Qiyou was startled when he heard that, and subconsciously pinched his fingers deeply into his palm, obviously because his words also reminded him of his past: "He treats you so...you want to be with him too?"

Shen Lexin didn't notice that something was wrong with him, instead she smiled: "Of course I didn't want to at first, in those five years I thought of countless ways to escape, the farthest time was almost to the southern border, and in the end he caught me back, Then he gave up, and after tossing about two years ago, he also gave up, said to let me go, and sent someone to send me back to the southern country."

"and then?"

"When I arrived in southern Xinjiang, I suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, so I went back to find him by myself."

"..." Ling Qiyou was completely speechless.

Shen Lexin was still smiling and said: "Actually, Ling Jing treated me pretty well. After my father died, I went back to the southern country. Although I had an adoptive father to adopt him, he was very strict with me and almost never gave me a smile. But Ling Jing , everything is in every detail, everything is considered and arranged for me, and there is nothing wrong with being with him."

"...Don't you feel humiliated?"

"Humiliation?" Shen Lexin finally heard that something was wrong with his tone of voice, looked at him with some doubts, thought for a while, and said: "There must be some in the beginning, but I'm a man, just as if I was bitten by a dog That's, and, how should I put it... At first, I had a bad attitude towards him, but it was actually because of my anger. After all, he is also surnamed Ling, but he is very different from his brother Hunjun, who always treats my father Treat him as a plaything, he will come and go when he is attracted, he will beat and scold him when he is unhappy, and he will force him to give birth to a son by feeding him medicine. He will help me arrange things that I can't think of... On the contrary, I often point at his nose and scold him..."

As Shen Lexin spoke, she seemed to be caught in memories, the corners of her eyes and brows stretched out, with a smile, soft, Ling Qiyou lowered her eyes, in the final analysis, he was not as easy to let go of as he was, those nightmares in the past It's not something he can forget if he wants to. He doesn't even dare to think about the past that made him feel unbearable or even humiliating, let alone say it as a joke like Shen Lexin.

"You and the emperor... are actually relatives, uncles and nephews..."

The smile on the corner of Shen Lexin's mouth froze for a moment, and then she laughed: "Anyway, he doesn't know, it doesn't matter, and no one else will know..."

Ling Qiyou fell silent, Shen Lexin looked at his appearance, squeezed the face of the little steamed bun that she foolishly put into her mouth with her fingers, thought for a while, and asked him: "Your Majesty, is your body Been unresponsive for months?"

Ling Qiyou frowned slightly and did not answer, Shen Lexin sighed, and continued: "It must be Ling Jing who bewitched that surnamed Xiao to give you medicine."

Ling Qiyou raised his head and looked at him in surprise: "What medicine?"

"It's the medicine to suppress the body's reaction," Shen Lexin said, stretching out her finger and pointing at herself: "I prepared it myself, or if Ling Jing went to Lingbei, what should I do?"

"..."

"Actually, that kind of medicine for conceiving children is not uncommon in the southern country. There are less than one in five women in the southern country. There are constant wars and the population is declining year by year. Later, my master, the grandfather of my adoptive father, developed the medicine. Except for the powerful, soldiers, and farmers in the southern country, more than half of the men in the southern country will be taken away by the government at the age of 15 and force-fed the drug. The physical reaction is that the person who is forced to take the drug has to have sex with other men , just to let men give birth to children. Although the chance of pregnancy is much lower than that of ordinary women, there is always a chance, and it cannot be destroyed. It will dissipate automatically... But Your Majesty, you sent people to find the secret medicine of the Southern Kingdom, it should be just to strengthen your body, right? Then you seem to have taken the wrong medicine..."

Ling Qiyou listened, his eyes widened in astonishment, and he stared blankly at him. Shen Lexin looked at his instantly dumbfounded appearance, which was exactly the same as when he was a child, and laughed again. There was no one else in the hall, so he stretched out his hand In the past, I imagined pinching Ling Qiyou's face like I did when I was a child. I stretched out my hand halfway, thought about it, and then took it back. I continued to explain the medicine to him clearly, and finally concluded: "So, if it's just to strengthen the For physical fitness, you can take another kind of medicine, but that medicine is only given to soldiers who went to war in the southern country, and it is strictly controlled. If you are caught selling it privately, it is a crime of Ling Chi. Most people don't have the guts to help His Majesty get medicine. It’s not surprising that people get it wrong.”

The ugly father-in-law dozing off outside the dormitory shuddered fiercely, and suddenly had the illusion that his good days were coming to an end?

Ling Qiyou recovered from the shock, his heart was filled with mixed feelings, more bitterness, it turned out that the greatest humiliation he had suffered in his life could be summed up in three words, took the wrong medicine?

The little mantou had already twisted his body out of Shen Lexin's hand, crawled back to his side, arched his body and rubbed against his arms, yelling "da da" in his mouth, as if he wanted him to hug him, Ling Qiyou stretched out his hand, touched his bald forehead, looked up at Shen Lexin again, and asked him: "It must... be taken twice before the effect disappears? How long will the medicine you make to suppress the body's reaction last?"

"Six months to a year, no more than a year at most. To completely dissipate the properties of the medicine, you have to give birth twice."

"What if I keep taking the medicine you prescribed?"

Shen Lexin motioned for him to stretch out his hand, put his fingers on his wrist to check his pulse, and shook his head after a while: "No, Your Majesty, you are too weak, Ling Jing must have lied to that surnamed Xiao that the medicine will not hurt you He only gave you the food for your body. In fact, the medicine is three-point poisonous. How can it be completely harmless to your body? If you keep taking medicine to suppress your body, your body will collapse. I don’t know how to take this kind of medicine, and it’s still useful if you take it once, but the effect will be reduced if you take it a second time, and it won’t work at all if you take it a few more times.”

Ling Qiyou was very disappointed when he heard it, and for a while: "...is that the only way?"

Seeing him like this, Shen Lexin sighed softly: "Your Majesty... Do you really hate Xiao Mantou's father? Because you feel humiliated?"

Ling Qiyou lowered his eyes again, the memory of his previous life was too painful, he really couldn't let go of it that easily, he couldn't say it at all, even to his brother, he couldn't tell that he really died once and came back to life People, I'm afraid no one will believe me if I tell you.

"Actually, I think...the one surnamed Xiao is quite sincere to you..." Shen Le said heartily: "Before Ling Jing persuaded him to go back to Jiangdong with him, he actually told Ling Jing that he was willing to be a father-in-law in the palace, and he even called Ling Jing Don't meddle in your own business, Ling Jing is so angry that he almost vomits blood... And every time he talks about you, he always has a sweet face, he must really like you very much, Ling Jing also said that he used to be single-minded. I wanted to do a big business, but when I met you, I changed everything, even being a father-in-law and a nanny to your son would never tire of it..."

"Stop talking about that," Ling Qiyou interrupted him suddenly, frowning, and asked, "Uncle Huang advised Xiao Chuqian to go back to Jiangdong with him?"

Shen Lexin thought that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Ling Jing has no other intention in asking Xiao to go back to Jiangdong with him, but he just doesn't want to see him stay in the palace as a eunuch, and is worried that you will make trouble for him in the future... ..."

"Before he said that the emperor's uncle came to Beijing specially to save him. Is it true?"

Shen Lexin said helplessly: "When you dealt with Xiao's party, the news came back to Jiangdong. Ling Jing heard that Xiao Chuqian was sentenced and Ling Chi was very anxious. Because of the rules set by his ancestors, he couldn't enter Beijing at that time, so he privately He sent someone first, he really regarded Xiao Chuqian as a friend, if you hadn't changed your mind and didn't kill Xiao Chuqian in the end, even at the risk of being punished, he would have rescued Xiao Chuqian before execution..."

Seeing that Ling Qiyou's eyes were full of puzzlement, Shen Lexin continued to explain: "Ling Jing really doesn't have any ambitions, he's used to being casual, and he's not suitable to be an emperor at all, he keeps saying that he's a typical bad boy. I love Jiangshan and beauties, and the emperor still feels annoyed when he treats him as him. Besides, Ling Jing is actually very protective of you, a big nephew who speaks a word. Before I assassinated you, he threatened me that if I dared to move you, you would personally lead the army to step down. What about Ping Nanguo?"

King Xuan really thought so?Although it was surprising, but from Shen Lexin's mouth, Ling Qiyou didn't want to be suspicious, and asked him instead: "What about you? Are you really planning to go back to the southern country?"

Shen Lexin was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "I lost the battle, and I was also punished in the southern country, and my adoptive father died a year before I went to war, so it's meaningless to go back."

"The people of the southern country don't know your identity?"

Shen Lexin shook her head: "They don't know that I am my father's son, only my adoptive father knows, but I guess Yuwen Minhao should have doubts, in fact, the assassin who killed Luo Wang and Qi Wang before, he should have recognized me as the original The major general who has already died on the battlefield deliberately told you that I am from the southern country. I am afraid that he wanted to use your hand to kill me. The old emperor of the southern country is now seriously ill. The second prince Yuwen Minhao and the third prince Yuwen Minxu has reached the point where you are fighting for the throne. The third prince and my father are siblings. My adoptive father has always supported him before, but now that my adoptive father is dead, I am not sure how much he has to win. In fact ..."

As Shen Lexin said, she glanced at Ling Qiyou, who had been frowning but listening carefully, and continued: "People in the Dacheng Dynasty said that the people of the Southern Kingdom were wolves with ambition and denounced them as barbarians, while ordinary people in the Southern Kingdom, most of them I still yearn for peace, and there are only a few people with real ambitions and ulterior motives. My father always thought that the two countries could let go of their prejudices and turn their wars into friendship, so that the people would no longer have to suffer from years of wars, so he took the initiative to ask to come to Dasheng As the hostage of the court, originally as the eldest prince, there is no need for him to come in person, but unfortunately his wish was not fulfilled, and he died here. I also violated his last wish and took command when the two countries were fighting Expedition... In the imperial court of the Southern Kingdom, there have always been two factions of the main battle and the main and the main. Meet each other in battle."

Ling Qiyou looked at him, and after a while, he asked, "If the two countries were to meet again, which side would you support?"

"...In the past, I led troops to fight to avenge my father, but now the Hunjun and your grandfather are both dead." He paused for a while, and then looked back at Ling Qiyou: "The Dacheng Dynasty did not expand outwards. Your intentions, right? You probably don’t care about the small land of the Southern Kingdom at all? If they sincerely and sincerely surrender, shake hands with Da Shengchao, sign a contract, and never commit another crime, can you let them go? "

Ling Qiyou smiled: "It would be great if we could seriously sign the contract and never commit any more crimes. I don't want to spend my troops on them, but you said that Yuwen Minhao was trying his best to fight? Besides, he killed After losing King Luo and King Qi, I have to give an explanation to the people of the world."

"If the third prince can ascend the throne smoothly, I am sure that I can persuade him to hand over Yuwen Minhao to Da Shengchao to make amends."

"...That will have to wait until he is really able to ascend the throne smoothly."

Ling Qiyou hugged the little mantou who insisted on climbing up on him all the time, and didn't say any more. What he didn't tell Shen Lexin was that the Southern Xinjiang official document sent this morning mentioned that there was a palace coup in the Southern Kingdom. The dust hasn't settled down yet, but the one who ascended the throne last, without accident, should be the second prince Yuwen Minhao.
