Nan Qi saw Nan Jiu and Xia Tian Meng returning together, and he noticed that the atmosphere between them had changed. There was something special about it that couldn't be put into words. Occasionally, when they exchanged glances, there was a warmth in their eyes that hadn't been there before...
Before he could react, Su Wen rushed out of the palace and saw Xia Tianmeng, who immediately let out a sigh of relief and called out repeatedly: "Miss Xia! You've finally arrived! Master Xia was just talking about you earlier, the Emperor wants you to go in and take a look!" Just now, Yang Lao from the Imperial Hospital said that if it wasn't for the timely arrival, they wouldn't have been able to stop the bleeding, and Master Xia would be in danger! As soon as he said this, everyone knew that there was no major problem, and only then did they put their minds at ease!
As he spoke, he saw Nan Jiu standing aside and hastily retreated: "Are the three masters also going in?" The three of them had been guarding outside for so long, no matter what the reason was, they couldn't be refused entry, let alone at the gate of Zhengqing Hall, where high-ranking officials and even young ladies without titles could enter. What kind of logic is it that the three dragon sons have to stand outside?
Nan Jiu saw Xia Tian Meng walking in and naturally followed, leaving Nan Yi Kou with an awkward smile: "Big brother? Together?" In his heart, he couldn't help but mutter, Old Nine is really shallow, not paying attention to anything else. Big brother just cleared up the misunderstanding with Meng today, and he's already being so obvious! If big brother minds, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
It's really unfair to Xunan, according to his 'nature', when Emperor Wu said that Xia Tianmeng had the freedom to marry in the summer, Xia Tianmeng was free and didn't have to be tied to her older brother, she was no longer the future princess consort, hers. So when she said she was willing to marry him, she was his.
But Nan Qi also noticed the difference, he didn't know what had happened in such a short time to make them two pour out their hearts. He thought he should be happy for Xiao Jiu, but still inexplicably felt a sense of loss, as if something that was supposed to belong to him had just slipped away, without even trying to retain it.
He shouldn't think like this, after all it was him who chose to give up in the first place.
Inside the palace, the imperial physicians knelt on the ground, and when they saw Xia Tianmeng and others enter, they only silently lowered their heads. Even though the head of the Imperial Medical Office said that he could cure Xia Taishi, the Emperor was still furious, and all they could do was kneel obediently.
It's really unlucky, in previous years the Wan Shou Festival was always peaceful, but this year something big happened. If it wasn't for Xia Taishi 'standing up' to save him, the Emperor and Xia Dynasty would have been shaken!
Xia Tian Mo quickly walked past the screen and went in, while Nan Jiu and others were blocked outside by Su Ying Wen, who only smiled and said: "The emperor is currently discussing matters with Xia Taishi, please wait a little."
But what Xia Tian saw as he walked in was the warm and gentle appearance of Wei Wu Xian holding Xia Yingchen in his arms, with a soft expression that didn't seem like him at all.
Xia Ying Shen raised his eyes to see Xia Tian Meng entering, a smile appeared on his handsome face: "Meng Meng." He was about to get up from Wei Jue's body, after all, he was worried that Meng Meng would have another falling out with him because of his relationship with Wei Jue. He had doted on this 'daughter' for so many years, and in the end, he couldn't bear to create a rift between them.
He wanted to go back to the happy times when Mengmeng was young, she was so pure, so lovely, and so naive that she smiled and said her favorite people were Father and Emperor Uncle.
She said she wanted to be together like this forever.
Even if he knew it was just childish nonsense, he still felt happy. How much he wished Momo could accept his love, but he knew he couldn't be so presumptuous.
Wei Ai Di saw the situation and could only support Xia Ying Shen to sit on the 'bed' head, nodding slightly at Xia Tian Meng: "She's back." Earlier, he also heard Su Yong Wen say that she didn't know where she went, now seeing her coming back safely, he knew that she was probably too scared so she secretly went out alone to vent.
"Your Majesty, Father..." Xia Tianwei slightly bent her knees in a bow and only stood up after Emperor Wei nodded. She approached the bed and looked at Xia Yingxin's pale face with worry-filled eyes, "Father, how do you feel now? Should we call for Xiao Fan to take a look?"
Xia Ying couldn't help but laugh at her concern, his eyes softening as he looked at her: "It's okay, the imperial physician also said that there was no harm done to any vital parts." He hadn't seen such a filial and gentle Momo for a long time.
Such warmth is what he has always wanted to protect carefully.
"That's good." Xia Tian Meng smoothed out the furrowed brow and looked at Wei Xun Emperor again, with a rare seriousness in her eyes, "Uncle Emperor, I hope you can be together with Father without bringing worry and fear."
Wei Wei's Emperor noticed the stiffness of the person in his arms and couldn't help but be surprised: "Meng Meng, what are you saying?" It had been many years since he almost forgot how Meng Meng used to call him "Emperor Uncle". What was she just saying? Together!
Xia Tian Miao smiled slightly at Xia Ying Shen's shocked gaze: "I'm not stupid, I can naturally see it. Maybe I was too concerned about appearances, love is originally uncontrollable, you two can ignore the worldly gazes, why should I say anything against it?"
After the original owner's death, she never regretted her own bias that led to her father's miserable death. She only felt unable to forgive her father's selfishness because she knew the cause of her mother's death. However, in reality, she was the one who had no right to say hate. Because Xia Yingxin had never wronged her, he gave her too much warmth and love, but she chose to ignore it all along.
Now she needs to give "Summer Moe" a beautiful future and complete her past regrets.
Xia Ying didn't know what kind of mood he was in at this moment. He had thought that he would have to hide from Ah Tuo for the rest of his life, including his beloved "daughter". Even after knowing about his "daughter's" hatred towards him, he had considered cutting ties with Ah Tuo to make up for his past mistakes. But... how difficult it was for him to make this decision!
What's wrong with love? He just fell in love with someone, who happens to be a man!
But now his 'daughter' tells him that he can understand their love.
If this were a dream, he wished he could sleep forever.
"Moe moe......" The man had tears but didn't shed them easily, only because he hadn't reached the point of heartbreak yet. He wasn't sad, but rather overjoyed to the point of tears. This person who was usually so stern and cold-blooded now actually cried because of a single sentence from his "daughter".
Xia Tian Moe saw him like that and felt a pang in her heart, she knew it was the original owner's love for his father.
"No need to thank us, you haven't wronged anyone." Including the mistress who took her own life.
Wei Yi couldn't help but tightly hug Xia Ying Shen, looking into Xia Tian Meng's eyes with an unprecedented sense of peace and gratitude: "Mengmeng, thank you, Emperor Uncle." He could feel Xia Shen trembling excitedly in his arms, and he could understand this feeling, after all, he had never thought it would happen!
So biased, looking gentle but actually 'radical' Moe, would say something like this.
In this way, he and Ashin were together and really had nothing to fear.
Even if the whole world knew about it the next moment, even if he was no longer an emperor, he could still take Ashen and retreat to the mountains.
He let Ashen suffer too much for him, and he is willing to spend the rest of his life making it up to him!
"It's all good like this." Xia Tian Meng smiled as she looked at the two men who were equally outstanding, but their love was too bitter. As she turned to leave, the smile on her lips had become illusory, "I just hope you can experience more storms and never give up." She didn't want to see them make that helpless choice of death again, she hoped they could stand up and defy this world, after all, even if Wei Wu Xian was not following the ancestral rules, he was still an emperor.
Everyone in the world is opposed to him, but he also has the qualification to be 'arbitrary'.
Su Yongwen, standing outside, saw Xia Tianmeng come out so quickly and was stunned for a moment. Seeing that there was no anger on her face, he let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked up to her with a smile: "I don't know how Master Xia is doing?"
Xia Tian Miao smiled slightly: "It's all right now." She said, slightly bending her knees, "Thank you, Su Gonggong, for your kindness." Whatever the reason why Su Yongwen was being overly courteous to her, it had elevated her status.
Su Yongwen hastily sidestepped to avoid her courtesy, reaching out to support her: "Hey, Xiaojie is being polite to me again? Xia Taishi is a lifesaving hero, and Xiaojie is also the model daughter of our Emperor Xia. It's only right that I show respect to you." Regardless of whether Xiā Tiān Méng had any relationship with the Crown Prince or not, or whether Xia Taishi had such a relationship with the Emperor, solely based on her social skills, she wouldn't be an ordinary woman.
Xia Tian Mo smiled and nodded, then turned her head to look at Nan Jiu who had been staring at her with a worried expression, smiling warmly and lightly: "Father is fine now."
Nanjue looked at her, and in her bright eyes, there was only his figure.
It feels like she can only see herself!
He smiled with a hint of shyness on his handsome face, looking clean and refreshed: "That's good." He had never felt this way before, it was strange, yet wonderful, as if his heart would pound just by exchanging a glance with someone. But it was special, and comfortable.
Nan Qi's eyes slightly sank, and she asked in a warm voice: "I wonder if the imperial physician has any medicine to brew?"
Xia Tian Mo didn't expect Nan Qi to speak up, and when he looked at him, he was stunned for a moment. He then politely saluted: "Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince. My father is currently discussing matters with His Majesty, but I suppose the people from the Imperial Hospital should have arrived by now."
She was as dignified and courteous as everyone could see, gentle and kind.
Nan Qi felt that she was different from what he had seen before.
In the past, Xia Tian would smile at him, but it was a shy and reserved smile, elegant with a hint of girlish charm, her eyes sparkling like stars when looking at him.
But that kind of summer is gone.
It was actually from that night when she told herself to give up that it disappeared!
She said it was over and really cut herself out of her world.
Clean and neat, without any drag.
But she left an impression on his heart.
Even if he knew it was something he shouldn't be doing, he couldn't help but think about it.
If... she is still his.
