The ghost doctor frowned, feeling that this was absolutely inappropriate!
But Shen Dingzhu insisted on this, and she even asked Xiucui to write a note: "Leave a message to the emperor, if anything happens to me... please don't blame anyone."
Xiucui was always steady, but when she held the pen, her wrist trembled violently and tears kept flowing. Shen Bi even ran to the door, knelt on the ground and cried to the moon: "As long as the empress and the child in her belly are safe, I am willing to shorten my life." Ten years, please have mercy on me."
Soon, two bowls of midwifery medicine were brought. Shen Dingzhu drank it with difficulty and spit out a little. She looked extremely pale and her clothes were wet with sweat, as if she had been fished out of water.
In the second half of the night, Shen Dingzhu's screams made everyone in Shen's house heartbroken. Shen's father and her two brothers were pacing outside the door.
The eldest brother Shen Lan couldn't help it anymore: "I'd better go to the palace to ask for an audience with the emperor and send the imperial doctor! Just one ghost doctor, multiple people and multiple methods, we can't let my sister die of pain like this. !”
Shen You hurriedly grabbed him: "The ghost doctor's medical skills are superb and are superior to those of the Imperial Hospital. I'm afraid if someone comes again, it will be useless. Brother, you'd better bring a few servants to help find Chengcheng's whereabouts. This is the most important thing." .”
Shen Lan nodded quickly, turned to tell Father Shen and left.
At the same time, in the imperial study, Xiao Langyan was immersed in writing. He personally drafted a complaint of grievance for the Shen family. Every word was what the Shen family wanted.
All it takes is for the person he arranged to confess the Fu family's crimes at dawn and hand over the evidence of the tiger talisman. By then, there will be others who collaborated with the enemy and treason, and the Shen family will bear the blame. After being convicted for so many years, it’s time to clear his name.
When he wrote the words "Redress the injustice", he had a headache. These days he was dealing with government affairs, arranging for people to conduct thorough investigations, and being busy with the Shen family. Xiao Langyan hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.
He pinched his eyebrows, and for some reason, he remembered Shen Dingzhu's smile that night, and for a moment, he couldn't help but laugh again along with her.
In the deserted imperial study room, the handsome and profound emperor closed his eyes and seemed to have thought of something wonderful, with a faint smile hanging on his thin lips.
He only rested for a moment, then opened his eyes again and started busy with the Shen family affairs again.
After dawn, the dark sins of the Shen family will be gone, just like being washed away by snow water.
Shen Dingzhu didn't know how many times she passed out from the pain. When she woke up occasionally, she felt the ghost doctor bleeding from her body. Her mother knelt beside the bed, holding her hand and begging her not to sleep.
She felt that many people were coming and going in a hurry, and she seemed to hear Lei Chen's voice. Shen Dingzhu wanted to stand up and ask her daughter about Xiao Xincheng's whereabouts, but she really didn't have any strength left.
Shen Bi fed her ginseng soup, but she vomited most of it out. Bowl after bowl of medicine was forced into her stomach. She felt hot and cold all over her body, and the pain quickly became numb.
At some point, it was bright and clear, and she finally heard a child's cry.
In the middle of the court, someone also beat the Denwen drum. The clear sound echoed in the blue sky in late spring, and birds flapped their wings and flew towards the bright morning sun.
The sound of the Dengwen Drum is quieter than the last. In the Jin Dynasty, the Dengwen Drum was a bell and drum that nobles and nobles could play for themselves when they had serious grievances. It could reach heaven and see them face to face. emperor.
Shen Dingzhu's ears were filled with the sounds of her family weeping with joy. Along with the helpless cry of the newborn, Xiucui and Shen Bi happily told her: "Your Majesty, you are a little prince!"
However, the beauty on the couch opened her chaotic and misty beautiful eyes and forced her eyes to look at the closed window. She must have heard correctly. The heavy and distant sound just now was Dengwen Drum.
Xiao Langyan did not lie to her. Today, the court must redress the grievances for the old case of the Shen family.
She finally waited. Two wasted lives, countless days and nights of enduring pain, and the grief of saying goodbye to her family were finally over.
Shen Dingzhu suddenly felt that her body was very light, and her eyelids slowly closed uncontrollably. At this moment, many memories from the past flooded into her mind.
Strangely enough, she thought she cared more about her family, but the memories flooding her mind when she was most vulnerable were all related to Xiao Langyan.
In his previous life, he didn't have a heart-to-heart relationship with her. He doted on her but didn't indulge her.
It was the same as in this life, but not the same, but in the two lives, Xiao Langyan's face gradually merged into the same one.
The corners of his lips were pursed tightly, and his jawline was tense, as if he was looking at her displeased. However, in the dark and captivating thin eyes under his sharp eyebrows, there was only her reflection.
Shen Dingzhu suddenly remembered that Xiao Langyan asked her in her previous life: "If I don't agree to redress the grievances of the Shen family, what will you do?"
At that time, Shen Dingzhu had received the imperial edict and knew that the Shen family had been wronged. She smiled indifferently and replied: "That concubine is dead. Go to the King of Hell to complain and ask him to let me live again. I will definitely not follow you, Your Majesty."
Xiao Langyan frowned at that time, slapped her buttocks hard with his big palm, gritted his teeth and angrily scolded her for having no conscience. However, the hand slowly moved up and covered her waist.
The joke at the time turned into a memory that still lingers in her ears. It turns out that Xiao Langyan still fulfilled his promise to her in his new life.
She suddenly wanted to see him.
Shen Dingzhu had a dull sleep and had no idea that the weather had changed outside.
When she woke up again, it was already three days later.
She was groggy these days, knowing that she had taken a lot of medicine, and also knew that Xiao Langyan had come to see her, because Shen Bi and Xiucui knelt down and cried and begged to let Xiao Langyan spare the ghost doctor's life.
In Xiao Langyan's rage, everyone could only tremble. Shen Dingzhu could hear it, but she was so sleepy that she wanted to get up to plead for mercy, but accidentally fell asleep again.
Until this time she was completely awake.
Shen Dingzhu's long eyelashes trembled slightly. After a while, she slowly opened her eyes. The first thing that caught her eye was the dust billowing in the sunlight and the warm-colored bed tent in her room.
There was no one in the house, and it was so quiet that you could hear the birds chirping outside the window.
She was about to turn her head to see where the child was, but when she turned to one side, she saw Xiao Langyan sitting at the table not far from her with red eyes.
Green stubble has grown on his chin, and he is wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, which looks like the one he didn't have time to change out of when he went to court, and has become a bit dull.
His thin eyes were bloodshot and red, with endless complex emotions, looking at Shen Dingzhu who had just woken up on the bed.
She supported herself and sat up slowly, her voice a little hoarse: "Your Majesty..."
Before Shen Dingzhu could finish speaking, Xiao Langyan interrupted her.
"Chengcheng is lost." He was probably angry and anxious. There was a bloody scab on his thin lips. It looked painful when he spoke, but he didn't feel anything at all.
Xiao Langyan's dark eyes seemed to be frozen with frost. He had never looked at Shen Dingzhu with such a look: "Why didn't you send someone to tell me earlier that she was kidnapped by an assassin?"
"Are you afraid that if you tell me, I will be distracted and unable to redress the grievances of the Shen family? Shen Dingzhu, I ask you, are you willing to ignore your daughter's life and death for the sake of your own Shen family? Do you love your children? Do you love me?"
