The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 172: Going Out for a Tour

Mo Shaoxie walked lightly as he slowly returned to the bed, with a hint of longing on his deep face.

After he sat down, he stretched out his strong arms and gently pulled Shangguan Ziling into his arms. He lowered his head, gazed at her affectionately, and called out in a low and gentle voice: "Ling'er".

Shangguan Ziling curled up in Mo Shaoxie's broad chest. She yawned softly, with a hint of laziness and tiredness in her voice.

She looked up at Mo Shaoxie, her eyes full of curiosity: "Where did you go after leaving the capital? Why did you leave for half a month?"

Mo Shaoxie looked down at her, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He gently rubbed her hair, and said in a low and gentle voice: "Ling'er, you are tired, go to sleep first. If you have anything to say, wait until you wake up and talk."

Afterwards, Mo Shaoxie carefully placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket. He also lay down in his clothes.

Shangguan Ziling turned her head and saw that he was sleeping in her bed. She was a little surprised: "You, you are sleeping in my bed?"

Mo Shaoxie closed his eyes and murmured "hmm" softly. The sound was so faint that it was almost carried away by the night wind.

Shangguan Ziling stared at him closely, her eyes full of concern. She saw the fatigue on Mo Shaoxie's face, and the dark circles under his eyes, as if he had gone through a long journey. She looked at him distressedly, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Slowly, Mo Shaoxie's breathing became steady and deep, as if he was fast asleep.

Shangguan Ziling yawned again. Forget it. They were getting married soon anyway, so she wouldn't chase him away.

Shangguan Ziling thought, isn't it just two people sleeping in the same bed? She gently lifted the quilt and gently covered Mo Shaoxie with half of the quilt. Then, she closed her eyes and lay beside him.

Before she knew it, Shangguan Ziling gradually fell asleep.

Mo Shaoxie lay there listening to Shangguan Ziling's steady and delicate breathing, and his heart calmed down.

He slowly opened his eyes and gazed tenderly at Shangguan Ziling's sleeping face. Her facial features were delicate and her skin was as smooth as cream, which made people feel pity for her.

Mo Shaoxie's eyes revealed deep love, and he gently stretched out his fingers and gently stroked her cheek.

He waved his finger lightly, and the candle on the table went out instantly, and the room was suddenly plunged into darkness.

Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling carefully, keeping her body pressed against his chest, as if he could integrate her into his life in this way.

In the darkness, Mo Shaoxie closed his eyes, and his breathing gradually became steady and deep. Shangguan Ziling's presence gave him an unprecedented sense of security and warmth, allowing him to let go of all his defenses and fatigue and immerse himself in this tranquility.

After a while, Mo Shaoxie also fell into a deep sleep, his breathing intertwined with Shangguan Ziling's.

The morning light shone through the delicate window lattice onto Shangguan Ziling's face. She slowly opened her sleepy eyes, a hint of confusion in her hazy eyes. She stretched, yawned, and looked to the side.

Guan Ziling was stunned for a moment. Didn't Mo Shaoxie come last night? He was sleeping in her bed. Everything was so real. Could it be that she had a dream?

She sat up and thought carefully about what happened last night. Those warm details, Mo Shaoxie's breath, his temperature... everything was so clear, as if it happened just last night. She shook her head, trying to get rid of these thoughts from her mind.

She got out of bed and walked to the table, poured herself a glass of water and drank it. The cool water flowing down her throat made her mind a little clearer.

"Master, you are not dreaming, it was your man who came last night."

"Oh, I thought I was missing him. I was dreaming!" Shangguan Ziling said with a smile.

Shangguan Ziling called out, and Chunxiao and Xia Yu opened the door and walked in carrying hot water.

After Shangguan Ziling finished washing up, she walked to the table and sat down. A delicious breakfast was already prepared on the table.

She savored the food carefully, taking every bite so seriously, as if she was savour the beauty of life.

Her expression was peaceful and her eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction.

After breakfast, Shangguan Ziling lay on the couch and leisurely picked up a medical book to read.

Shangguan Ziling stood up and gently put down the medical book in her hand.

She turned to face Yun Youyou, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. The summer sun shone through the window lattice onto her face, highlighting her beautiful and refined features. She smiled slightly and said, "Youyou, why are you here?"

Yun Youyou walked into the room, her smile as bright and charming as the warm spring sun. She looked at Shangguan Ziling, her eyes full of concern: "Ziling, you have been locked up at home for half a month, let's go boating in the lake."

Shangguan Ziling heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Indeed, she had been bored at home for a long time. She smiled and nodded: "Okay, I haven't been out for a long time, so I will go to the lake with you today."

Yun Youyou covered her mouth and laughed, "What? Aren't you afraid that Uncle Shangguan will scold you? You must be bored." There was a hint of sarcasm in her words.

Shangguan Ziling said: "Leave the house quietly, my father hasn't come back yet."

Yun Youyou laughed and said, "Haha, look how depressed you are. Don't worry, when I came, Uncle Shangguan had already returned from court. I have already told him that I want to go boating with you. Uncle agreed and he won't say anything to you."

Shangguan Ziling heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then turned into joy. She whispered: "Really? Dad already knows?"

Yun Youyou nodded and replied with a smile: "Of course it is true. I was afraid that my uncle would worry, so I told him in advance. When my uncle heard that we were going boating together, he asked the guards in your mansion to go with us."

Shangguan Ziling felt a warm current in her heart after hearing this. She knew that her father cared for her meticulously, and it was because the assassin from the Crimson Purple Courtyard frightened him last time that he was so worried about her and asked the guards to accompany her to protect her.

Shangguan Ziling and Yun Youyou walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion while chatting and laughing, while Lin Jian and a group of guards stood respectfully beside them.

Seeing Shangguan Ziling coming out, Lin Jian immediately bowed his head and saluted, his voice steady and powerful: "Miss, Miss Yun, the carriage is ready, the master has ordered his subordinates to protect the young lady."

Shangguan Ziling said "yes" softly. She was calm and composed, showing a calm demeanor. Then, she turned her head and smiled at Yun Youyou, saying, "Let's go." After that, she reached out and gently held Yun Youyou's hand.

Yun Youyou responded to Shangguan Ziling's smile, and the two walked towards the carriage parked outside the mansion. The carriage was pulled by two horses, and the carriage was beautifully decorated with swaying tassels, which looked both gorgeous and steady.

Shangguan Ziling was the first to step onto the carriage, followed closely by Yun Youyou. The carriage was covered with soft brocade cushions and filled with exquisite tea sets. Shangguan Ziling sat down gently, and Yun Youyou sat opposite her.

Following Lin Jian's order, the carriage started slowly.
