Chapter 155 Many Eyes Are Staring at You
The emperor's anger was like the dark clouds before a storm, gathering in every corner of the palace. His face was ashen, his eyes were blazing, and it seemed like he would explode at any moment.
The imperial doctors knelt on the ground, with their heads lowered, not daring to breathe. Their faces were filled with fear and anxiety, as they were afraid that they would become victims of the emperor's wrath.
The emperor's breathing became heavy and rapid, with each breath accompanied by the violent rise and fall of his chest. His hands were clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white from excessive force.
He had not expected that Mo Shaoxie would be so presumptuous and not take him, the emperor, seriously. It seemed that he had to get rid of him as soon as possible, but how could he get rid of him quietly? He had to think about it carefully.
The heartbeats of the imperial doctors were particularly clear in the silent room. Fine beads of sweat oozed out of their foreheads and slid down their cheeks.
The whole room was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of tension. Even the Queen and Jun Yaotian did not dare to speak, for they knew that the Emperor must be extremely furious.
The emperor flicked his sleeves and turned to leave. As he left, the atmosphere in the room gradually eased, but the imperial doctors were still frightened and did not dare to look up easily.
The queen asked Murong Futu and Han Xinyin to stay and take care of the prince, and asked the other imperial doctors to leave.
Mo Shaoxie walked briskly, holding Shangguan Ziling in his arms.
When the palace servants saw him, they all knelt down, not daring to look at him directly. He strode quickly to the gate of the palace.
After leaving the palace, Mo Shaoxie carried Shangguan Ziling into the carriage. In the carriage, Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling and sat on his lap.
Mo Feng saw his master get into the carriage, waited for a while, and drove the carriage silently.
Mo Shaoxie saw Shangguan Ziling staring at him infatuatedly, and a smug smile appeared on his lips. He chuckled and said, "Hehe, Ling'er, if you look at me like this, I will think you can't wait to marry me in a month. How about bringing the wedding date forward?"
Shangguan Ziling woke up from her dream when she heard this, and her cheeks flushed. She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Mo Shaoxie in the eye again.
Seeing this, Mo Shaoxie reached out and gently lifted her chin, forcing her to look up and look at him. His eyes were full of tenderness and affection, as if he wanted to carve her shadow into his heart.
"You are so shy, what should I do?" Mo Shaoxie's voice was low and magnetic, and every word was as sweet as honey.
Shangguan Ziling's heartbeat quickened when she was looked at by him. She said coquettishly, "Are you making fun of me?"
Mo Shaoxie did not let her go and continued, "When has this king ever made fun of you? Ling'er, do you know that ever since I met you, this king has been deeply involved and cannot extricate himself."
After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed Shangguan Ziling's lips, tenderly and affectionately. Shangguan Ziling closed her eyes and let his kiss fall on her lips...
The atmosphere in the carriage gradually heated up, and the two people's breathing intertwined to form a beautiful melody.
Mo Shaoxie didn't let Shangguan Ziling go until she was out of breath. His eyes were like burning flames, staring at her tightly. His voice was low and full of desire: "I regret choosing those three dates. I should have chosen those two dates and left it to the Prime Minister to choose."
Shangguan Ziling rolled her eyes at him lightly, with a faint smile on her lips, and said, "A month will pass quickly."
Mo Shaoxie seemed not satisfied with this answer. He frowned and said, "But for me, this month has been like a year. Every moment is filled with endless longing and desire. Otherwise, how about talking to the Prime Minister and proposing marriage?"
Shangguan Ziling didn't want to argue with him about this issue anymore. The date had already been set, and her father thought it was too hasty. If it was moved forward, her father would definitely be unhappy.
So, she changed the subject and asked, "Why are you here? Will you be in trouble if you confront the emperor like this?"
Mo Shaoxie touched her knee lovingly and said, "No matter what I do, he will not be at ease. Why should I be so humble to him?"
Shangguan Ziling nodded. She understood that the emperor's mind was hard to predict. If the emperor was worried about someone, no matter what that person did, he would not be able to dispel his concerns.
Mo Shaoxie hugged Shangguan Ziling tightly, his voice gentle and caring: "Ling'er, does your knee still hurt? It's because I came too late and failed to protect you in time."
Shangguan Ziling felt a warm current in her heart when she heard his words. She snuggled in his arms and whispered, "It doesn't hurt anymore. I just said that on purpose. I'm just not used to kneeling down all the time." There was a hint of playfulness and coquettishness in her voice.
After hearing this, Mo Shaoxie gently rubbed her hair and said lovingly: "Ling'er, you don't have to compromise in the future, and you don't have to kneel down to anyone. You can make a fuss, as long as I'm here, no one can do anything to you."
Shangguan Ziling's eyes lit up when she heard his words, and she said excitedly, "Wow, so awesome! Well, if Jun Yaotian comes to disgust me again in the future, I will beat him up openly!"
After hearing this, Mo Shaoxie nodded and said, "Well, go ahead and beat me. I'll take the blame." Mo Shaoxie naturally knew what Shangguan Ziling had done in the streets and alleys. When he learned that the emperor had summoned her to the palace, he rushed there as soon as possible, fearing that she would suffer.
His voice revealed a kind of firm support and protection, which made Shangguan Ziling feel extremely safe and secure.
The two smiled at each other, snuggled together tightly, and enjoyed the warmth and sweetness.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Mo Shaoxie watched Shangguan Ziling walk into the mansion before leaving.
Shangguan Ziling walked into the mansion and met the housekeeper. The housekeeper bowed respectfully to her and said, "Miss, the master asked you to come back to the study. The master is waiting for you in the study."
Shangguan Ziling nodded, knowing that her father must be worried about her being summoned to the palace. She followed the butler's lead, passed through the winding corridor, and came to the door of the study.
Pushing open the door of the study, Shangguan Ziling saw her father sitting behind the desk, dressed in a blue shirt, with a calm demeanor. Hearing the door open, he raised his head, looked at her deeply, and said, "Ziling, you're back."
Shangguan Ziling walked up to her father, knelt down and bowed, saying: "Father, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry."
Prime Minister Shangguan nodded slightly, pointed to the chair beside him, and motioned her to sit down. He pondered for a moment and said, "When I learned that the Regent had entered the palace, I was not too worried."
Shangguan Dong sat on the sandalwood chair in the study and said to Shangguan Ziling with a serious face: "Ziling, your wedding with the Regent is coming soon. Now many eyes in the capital are watching you. I am afraid that you will cause unnecessary trouble if you go out. So, you should not go out recently to avoid more trouble."
