Chapter 199

Facing Su Mo's pitiful eyes, Li Shishi really couldn't say anything to reject her.

He forced her to stay for two hours before letting Qingyan send her back.

Seeing that Gongsun Qing still didn't come back after sunset, Li Shishi couldn't help worrying.

Although she understands that the official is always busy, but the leader is too serious, she called people over as soon as she came back, and those who didn't know thought it was Mrs. Zhenggong who came to fight for favor...

Li Shishi was probably worried about her two daughters, so she dragged her into the house.

When sending Su Mo away just now, she clearly heard the two children thinking about how to catch and grill fish. Li Shishi really didn't dare to relax her vigilance at all, for fear that something would happen when the two of them arrived at the palace.

Although she was married to Gongsun Qing, she did not contribute less when she came to the capital, but it was only after she arrived here that she felt awkward.

Although the other courtyard is not as big as the Wang's Mansion, she is used to living in it after all. Now that she has changed the bed and there is no Gongsun Qing by her side, she always feels flustered.

The two children took a bath and rolled on the big bed in their underwear, laughing one after another.

Li Shishi was leaning on the couch in the middle of the bedroom, leaning on the low table with one hand to support her head, watching the two of them play.

After a while, Wanran jumped off the bed and ran to Li Shishi barefoot. Li Shishi just wanted to remind her to wear shoes, but Wanran asked a question
"Mother, we will stay here for a few days."

Li Shishi opened her mouth, and took back what she was about to blurt out. Seeing Wanran's innocent appearance, she couldn't help but laugh.

After touching her head, Li Shishi asked: "Why, you don't like it here?"

Wanran hesitated for a while, crawled up to Li Shishi and wanted to sit in her arms, but after looking at her mother's belly, she gave up the idea.

Turning around and sitting next to Li Shishi, she leaned on Li Shishi's body and said, "I like this place, but I feel a little homesick after being out for so long."

Wanmiao came running over, and climbed to the other side of the table lightly, picked up the teacup and drank the cold water in one gulp, saying: "If you don't go back, this will be our home from now on, Wangfu How big is it, there are so many fun places to go, I haven’t played enough yet.”

Li Shishi turned her head to look at Wanmiao's blushing little girl, thinking that it was the two children who were making a fuss just now.

Wiping the sweat from Wanmiao's nose with a handkerchief, she said with a smile, "You know about Doha."

Wanran was somewhat reluctant: "I want to go home."

Li Shishi looked at her and smiled, then pinned the hair behind her ears and said, "We will go back when we have time."

It was raining rustlingly outside.

Li Shishi looked up.

After holding back the rain all day, it finally started to fall at night.

Li Shishi couldn't help being a little worried. Gongsun Qing hadn't come back yet, so he was afraid that it would rain.

Qingyan appeared outside the bedroom, she held an umbrella and didn't come in, she just stood at the door and reported: "Ma'am, the prince sent a message from the palace, saying that he will not be going back to the house tonight, let Madam rest early."

Li Shishi frowned slightly, feeling an unspeakable loss in her heart.

But her face was still calm, she just looked at Qingyan lightly and said: "Understood, you go down, rest early, don't need to wait."

"Yes." Qing Yan nodded slightly, then turned and left.

Li Shishi sighed softly, looked at the half-burned candle, and then called Wanran and Wanmiao: "Let's go, let's go to sleep."

Lying on the big mahogany bed, the two children whispered stories to each other.

Li Shishi extinguished all the candles in the house, leaving only one still burning.

This is the dormitory where Gongsun Qing once lived.

For so many days and nights, he lay down where Li Shishi lay and slept peacefully.

The pillow was covered with the smell of Gongsun Qing.

Li Shishi actually felt a lot more relieved.

The exhaustion of traveling in the past few days, and she was pregnant, it was more or less unbearable.

With the onset of sleepiness, Li Shishi rarely had a good night's sleep.

Pregnant people always snooze.

When Gongsun Qing came back with a tired body, Li Shishi was still awake.

Wanran and Wanmiao woke up early, and went to practice with the commander of the guards, Jiang Chen.

Seeing that Li Shishi was still asleep, Gongsun Qing went to change clothes, wash her face, and then returned to the bedroom.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he sighed, raised his hand and rubbed Yamane's position.

Last night the emperor urgently summoned him into the palace, after a short exchange of pleasantries, he directly entered the topic.

The topic, without exception, points to the recent treacherous undercurrents in the court.

After all, he is old, and he has worked so hard for state affairs for so many years, his temples have already turned gray, and he has aged a lot.

When Gongsun Qing handed back his military power and resigned as a general, he didn't have a few days of peace after he left.

It was only now that he realized that although Gongsun Qing held the military power, he had never committed any disloyalty. He was the only one who had been loyal and loyal after fighting bloody battles for so many years.

The emperor and his ministers met and chatted all night long, and finally the emperor let him out of the palace at dawn.

Sitting by the bed, Gongsun Qing felt very tired, and now the emperor's intention to call him back to the palace is very obvious.

Now that Prime Minister Zuo is staring at him, and he has no military power in his hands, and most of the ministers in the court have turned to Prime Minister Zuo during this period, he doesn't need to think about how difficult his situation in the court will be in the future.

Li Shishi's fingers moved slightly and touched the corner of Gongsun Qing's clothes.

Her eyelids moved, and then slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing Gongsun Qing sitting beside her, she stretched out her hand to hold his hand and said with a smile, "I'm back."

Gongsun Qing opened his eyes and looked down at her when he heard the voice, and smiled a little: "Well, I'm back."

"Is it still raining outside?"

"It's not raining anymore, you can go to bed again." Tucking the quilt for Li Shishi, Gongsun Qing said softly.

"Didn't sleep all night."

"Well, no."

Hearing this, Li Shishi turned her body inside, lifted a corner of the quilt, and said, "Come in and lie down for a while."

Gongsun Qing just wanted to shake his head, but was pulled by Li Shishi unexpectedly.

Supporting half of his body, he looked up at her and smiled: "Why, why are you so active?"

"Stop talking nonsense, others don't love you, I have to love you, I haven't slept all night, do you think you are an owl?"

"Owl? What is that?" Gongsun Qing lay obediently beside Li Shishi, asking puzzledly.

Li Shishi gritted her teeth angrily: "Hey! You didn't hear the touching words I said earlier, but you heard an owl?"

Gongsun Qing laughed out loud at being teased, pinched Li Shishi's face, and said with a smile: "I heard it, I heard it, for my husband, I was so moved that tears filled my eyes."

"Cut, hypocrisy!" Li Shishi rolled his eyes at him bitterly, and then said, "Take off your shoes and lie down, you won't be able to wake up today if you are full of sleep, and you will have the strength to work."
