The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

This night is destined to make people sleepless.

Jing Shu was guarding the two sleeping children, and was crying so hard that she didn't know when Jinxi was, when she was suddenly pulled into a familiar embrace.

Jing Shu raised her head abruptly, under the flickering candlelight, it was her husband Li Ling.

Li Ling looked at her condescendingly, with a hoarse voice: "I'm back."

Jing Shu stared at him in disbelief for a long time. Although she never believed that Li Ling would die, Jing Shu couldn't believe that Li Ling was standing in front of her all of a sudden.

She got up abruptly, because she was crying so much just now, her body was very weak, and she fell headlong into Li Ling's arms with such a sudden movement.

Li Ling took advantage of the situation and hugged her tightly, kissed her hair one after another, and said in a low voice with distress: "I made you worry, don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!"

Jing Shu hugged Li Ling tightly, afraid that he would slip away if she relaxed a little.

Worried about waking up the children, Li Ling leaned over and picked her up, striding towards the main room.It wasn't until Li Ling put her on the bed that Jing Shu came back to it.

Her husband did not die, but came back in good condition.

Jing Shu looked at Li Ling, and finally sobbed out: "What the hell is going on? The elder brother inquired about the news, saying that you and Jin Wang both fell off the cliff, and I was scared to death. I thought you really abandoned me and me. Children, never come back."

Li Ling knelt on the bed, stretched his arms and hugged his little wife tightly into his arms, and said repeatedly: "Did you worry? It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

For Li Ling to return safely, Jing Shu had already asked for something else, so how could she bear to blame him.

Jing Shu was stuffy in his arms, her heart that had been hanging over the past few days finally settled down, and Li Ling's arms were warm and solid, able to give her strong support.

Jing Shu lay in Li Ling's embrace, greedily enjoying Li Ling's warm embrace, and after a long while, she asked softly, "Did you run into trouble on the way back?"

Li Ling gently stroked his wife's beautiful hair, nodded and said, "I did encounter some troubles, but I was afraid that you would worry, so I hurried back."

After hearing Li Ling's words, Jing Shu raised her head from his arms, looked at him with teary eyes and said, "Brother only found out about the news tonight. Although I have been worried these days, the most uncomfortable thing is But this night."

As she was talking, she couldn't help but burst into tears again, choked up and said: "After tonight, after dawn, I really don't know how to face the children, how to face everyone."

Li Ling smiled slightly, tried to cry for his wife pitifully, and replied softly: "I knew you'd only last a day or two."

Jing Shu raised her arms and hugged Li Ling tightly, crying, "Don't scare me like this again."

Li Ling sighed slightly: "I don't have the heart to scare you, but if I don't do this, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back so smoothly."

Deep Palace, Chonghua Hall.

Concubine Meng Gui was crying faintly in Emperor Ming's arms, but the servant did not care about the strict palace rules, ran into the inner hall panting and knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and replied out of breath: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty , King Jin, he is back!"

When Concubine Meng heard this, she immediately came back to life, and before Emperor Ming could speak, she hurriedly asked, "Where is King Jin?"

As soon as Concubine Meng's words fell, King Jin strode into the inner hall. When Concubine Meng saw that her son had returned alive, she didn't even care about wearing her shoes, so she rushed towards her son, screaming loudly. He said: "My son, are you really back? My son, you scared the concubine to death"

King Jin has gone through many hardships this time. Although he has lost a lot of weight, his spirit is extremely excited at the moment.

The prince failed to be framed many times, but he caught the handle. Now that he is the return of the king, he is destined to tear the prince down from the position of crown prince.

The King of Jin didn't care about chatting with Concubine Meng Gui, he perfunctorily comforted his mother, then knelt down in front of Emperor Ming and said: "My son went to the Northwest Ping rebel army, and was framed by treacherous officials in every possible way. My son and Li The general overcame all difficulties to pacify the Northwest, but on the way back to Beijing, he was plotted and intercepted again and again, and he still expected his father to be the master of his son."

Emperor Ming was overjoyed that his son had returned safely, he quickly helped his son up, and replied with a trembling voice, "Father will definitely make the decision for you. The person who heard the report said that you and Boyue fell into the mountain stream. Come on, what's going on here?"

The king of Jin made up the words early, he sat down under the emperor Ming, and talked eloquently: "On the way back to the capital, my son and my cousin, after just two days, they encountered a group of men in black who intercepted and killed them. It was the dead soldiers who were raised, and the son-in-law and the cousin led the defeated elite and tried their best to kill the culprits, but we also suffered heavy casualties."

King Jin was always eloquent, so at this juncture, he naturally wanted to beautify himself in front of Emperor Ming.

He spoke dryly, took two sips of the teacup handed over by Concubine Meng Gui, and continued: "Seeing that the situation is not good, I came up with a plan to get rid of the golden cicada's shell."

"Seeing that the thieves didn't hurt Erchen, they made another comeback on the way the next day. This time they had more people, so Erchen used a trick to pretend to fall into the cliff with my cousin, and then we took a few entourages in disguise Dress up, so that you can fool the thief and come back safely."

After hearing her son's frightening experience, Concubine Meng wiped her tears and said, "These people are so vicious that they have to be exterminated before they give up. Fortunately, Jin'er is both wise and brave, and can come up with such a way to get rid of the golden cicada's shell. How can I escape the schemes of these tigers and wolves."

After hearing this, Emperor Ming let out a long sigh, patted his son on the shoulder, and praised: "Jin'er is really brave and resourceful, and he is a material to inherit the great line."

Although Zhao Jin has a scheming heart, he is a cowardly person. When he was chased and killed, he almost peed his pants, and he didn't have the brains to come up with ideas.Li Ling was naturally the one who came up with this trick to get rid of the golden cicada's shell, but after hearing Emperor Ming's praise, King Jin didn't feel guilty at all.

He sighed slightly, then bent down and knelt at Emperor Ming's feet again, pretending to be sad and said: "I am grateful to my father for my absurd praise, but now those people are already blatantly wanting to put my son to death, and my son still asks my father to be the master." .”

Concubine Meng took the opportunity to kneel down with her son, and cried to Emperor Ming: "Your Majesty, the empress and the crown prince have made Jin'er a thorn in their side. If you hesitate any longer, our mother and son will die sooner or later with no place to hide."

As she said that, she kowtowed deeply to Emperor Ming: "I hope that Your Majesty will show mercy and make an early decision to save the ministers, concubines, mother and son from danger."
