With this concern in mind, he quickly arranged the current errands. Because of his strong supervision, the people under him were much more attentive to the work. After the water control matter was on track, he left two officials to follow up in Zhijiang and led them that night. Master Wei rode his horse back to Beijing quickly.
Returning was as fast as an arrow, and he did not rest along the way. He only changed horses at the inn and had a quick meal. After three days of journey, he had arrived in Beijing in two days.
It was already late when he arrived in Beijing and the city gate was closed. The guard came over to verify his identity before opening the city gate and kneeling to welcome him into the city.
At this point, he had been away from Beijing for two full months and had not seen Leng Xiao for two months. When he rode back all the way, he deeply felt how gnawing this longing was.
After entering the East Palace, the horse was thrown to Master Wei. Master Wei took the whip and said, "The Crown Princess must be extremely happy to see you back."
Before he finished speaking, Nangong Yitian's back was no longer visible and he headed straight for Zhanyue Residence.
Leng Xiao has been lethargic recently. Since the reaction became severe, she has experienced vomiting, inability to eat, drowsiness, and endless sleepiness. It is really a torture for her.
When she was pregnant with Si Nian, before she could wear it, the original owner had to endure all the hardships for her. Now that she had endured it, she felt that it was too difficult for the original owner.
She had not left Zhanyue Residence for more than half a month. In addition to not wanting to go out and have others see her pale appearance, she also really didn't want to move. It was too hard.
She went to bed early tonight. Before she fell asleep, she counted on her fingers that it had been two months since he left. When would he come back?
It was agreed at the beginning that it would be one and a half months at the earliest and three months at the earliest. It has been two months now and I haven't received a letter back yet. I'm afraid it will take a full three months before I come back.
By the time he returned, his belly would be more than four months old and already swollen.
With full of longing for him, she gradually fell asleep.
There was a smell of sweat in the dream, and the smell of travel, but there was his strong and warm embrace, a long-lost embrace.
She curled up in this embrace, even if she knew it was a dream, she didn't want to wake up. Nangong Yitian, I really miss you.
It wasn't until the big hand covered her back that she suddenly woke up. When she opened her eyes, under the dim light, black shadows were reflected on the wall. Her eyes suddenly became hot. She hugged him tightly and swallowed her sobs in his chest. .
He's back, he's back!
The beard rubbed on her face, and under the warm lips, she whispered in her ear, "Leng Xiao, I'm back, I miss you so much."
Familiar voice, familiar arms, two months apart, Leng Xiao really felt as if he was in another world, and felt like he was dreaming.
Gently push him away, hold his face and look at it under the dim light. His cheeks have become thinner, sunburned, stubble has grown out, and his lips are dry and leathery. He is no longer the elegant and noble man he used to be. , but he is really her man.
He stared at her face greedily. She had lost weight, her face was so pale, her eyes were red, and tears were gathering in her eyes. He looked stubborn and cold.
His heart ached and ached, and he hugged her tightly into his arms again to comfort the lovesickness he had not seen for two months. He was so strong that he almost rubbed her into his body.
"Be gentle, be gentle!" Leng Xiao pressed against his chest and cried out in annoyance, "It's pressing on my stomach."
Nangong Yitian heard the exclamation and immediately let go of her. He slowly opened the quilt and saw her slightly bulging abdomen.
He was very surprised. He looked at her belly and then at her cheeks. Was this considered weight loss or fatness?
