The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 456

Shangguan Ziling looked at Mo Wenjing in front of her with gentle eyes, only to see Mo Wenjing smile and nod, with a kind of relieved tranquility revealed in that smile.

Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her heart. She knew that Sister Jing had finally come out of the shadow of the past.

"Sister Ziling, Xiangxiang is growing up day by day, and I have become more open-minded. In the future, I will accompany Xiangxiang until he grows up, and watch him get married and have children." Mo Wenjing opened her red lips slightly, her voice soft and firm.

Shangguan Ziling nodded with a smile, her eyes full of relief and joy.

"I'm glad Sister Jing thinks this way."

The two chatted about the interesting things that happened during the day.

At this time, the wet nurse came in, carrying the well-fed little prince. The little guy had already fallen asleep.

The wet nurse put him on the small bed beside him, and Xiangxiang just looked at him.

"Look! Xiangxiang likes his brother so much," Mo Wenjing said with her hand covering her mouth.

After a while, a slight snoring broke the warm atmosphere.

It turned out to be Xiangxiang, the lively and active little guy who was tired from playing. Seeing his younger brother fall asleep after eating, he felt that the novelty wore off and fell into a deep sleep.

Mo Wenjing and Shangguan Ziling looked at each other and both smiled.

"I'll carry Xiangxiang back to sleep."

Shangguan Ziling nodded.

Mo Wenjing gently picked up Xiangxiang, turned around and walked out. Her movements were gentle and skillful, as if she was holding the tenderness of the whole world.

Qiu Kui hurried in with an excited smile on her face. "Princess, Miss Wan'er sent a lot of valuable gifts and a letter for you." Qiu Kui said, handing the letter to Shangguan Ziling.

Shangguan Ziling took the letter, gently opened the envelope, and unfolded the letter. Her eyes danced on the letter, as if she was reading a beautiful poem. As she read deeper, the corners of her mouth gradually rose, and finally she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Qiu Kui asked curiously, "Princess, what did Miss Wan'er write in the letter? You look so happy."

Shangguan Ziling raised her head, her eyes sparkling with happiness. "Wan'er said that after she and Dongfang Piaoyi got married, they traveled everywhere, and they encountered many new things. She said that they walked through mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, watched the sunrise and sunset, and experienced the customs and customs of different regions. Those experiences made her feel that life is full of infinite possibilities." Shangguan Ziling said while gently stroking the letter paper, as if she could feel the happiness and joy of Wan'er and Dongfang Piaoyi from it.

"How enviable." Qiu Kui sighed, "Princess, you must also be longing for such a life, right?"

Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly, her eyes revealing a deep yearning and expectation. "Yes, when the government is stable and Xiao Yier is a little older, we will go out and travel."

Time flies, and it’s a month later!

Shangguan Ziling was wearing plain clothes and standing quietly in front of the window. Her eyes were deep and gentle, as if she could penetrate the mist of time and see those distant years.

A month passed like a lifetime ago, and she finally emerged from the confinement of confinement.

The late emperor had just passed away, and the entire palace was shrouded in solemnity. She didn't want to hold a full moon banquet for Xiao Yi'er at this time, and she didn't want to deal with those hypocritical people.

Just have a meal together as a family.

In the afternoon, sunlight shines through the carved window lattices, casting patches of light into the room.

Shangguan Ziling was leaning on the couch at the moment, stretching lazily. She squinted her eyes slightly, feeling the long-lost sunshine, as if even her bones were stretched.

"I've been lying in bed for a month. I'm so bored. I stink too. I just took a bath and rubbed out a lot of mud." Shangguan Ziling seemed to want to release all the loneliness and boredom of the past month.

Xia Yu listened at the side and couldn't help but chuckle: "Princess, you are exaggerating. You wipe your body every day, how can you rub mud out?"

Shangguan Ziling heard this and shook her head, with a helpless smile on her lips. She patted her waist gently and said, "I've been lying down for a month, and my bones are all numb. You don't understand. When you give birth and spend the confinement period, you'll know how boring it is."

Chun Xiao was squatting beside the crib, gently rocking it, and the baby inside was sleeping sweetly. She turned her head, looked at Shangguan Ziling, and said softly: "Princess, Qiu Kui reads you a storybook every day to relieve your fatigue, so why are you bored?"

Shangguan Ziling snorted lightly, with a disdainful arc on her lips. She said, "Hmph! Those stories told by Qiu Kui are too boring, they are all very clichéd plots." There was a hint of disdain in her tone, as if she was criticizing those clichéd stories.

Qiu Kui heard this from the side, pouted her lips, and said aggrievedly: "Princess, I bought all the most popular books in the capital recently, but you don't like them."

"Come, today I will tell you a story. I promise you will listen and find it exciting."

Upon hearing this, several girls looked up at her, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.

Shangguan Ziling coughed a few times, as if she was organizing her thoughts, and then began her narration: "It was an ancient and distant era, and a stone monkey was born between heaven and earth. He was the future Great Sage Equaling Heaven - Sun Wukong."

Her voice was as soft as a thread, as if it brought people into that mythical world. The maids were mesmerized by her voice, as if they had seen the lively, clever stone monkey with their own eyes.

"Sun Wukong has shown extraordinary talent since he was born. He became a disciple of Patriarch Bodhi and learned great magical powers. However, he was naughty by nature and refused to obey discipline. He eventually became famous in the three realms for causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace..." Shangguan Ziling told the story slowly and every word seemed to carry magic, making people fascinated.

Xia Yu asked curiously, "Princess, why don't you continue? What happened after Sun Wukong made trouble in Heaven?"

Shangguan Ziling smiled mysteriously and said, "To know what happens next, please listen to the next chapter."

Qiu Kui held her face with her hands and said, "Ah...Princess, you can't keep me in suspense like this."

"Haha, what do you think? The stories I tell are much more exciting than those storybooks you bought."

Okra nodded hurriedly.

At this time, Mo Shaoxie walked in, and several maids quickly bowed.

Mo Shaoxie raised his eyebrows: "Ling'er, what are you talking about? Why are you so happy?"

Shangguan Ziling waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, I just told them a story."

"Oh? What story?"

Qiu Kui interrupted and repeated the story that Shangguan Ziling had just told, using gestures.

Mo Shaoxie's eyes were deep, "Ling'er, what happened next?"

Shangguan Ziling walked over and picked up the awakened Xiao Yier. "Does our Xiao Yier like listening to stories too? His eyes are looking around curiously. What is Xiao Yier looking at? Hmm?"
