NovelEnglishChapter 1133 The Return of an Old Friend (41)
It was not appropriate for her to scold Xie Jingxing, because Xie
Jingxing had not done anything wrong. Instead, she told him how
much Shen Miao had done over the past year. She said that Shen
Miao guarded Long Ye for him while she was pregnant. She
protected the palace and the dignity of the Daliang Dynasty's royal
family with her life. She had risked her life many times at the critical
moment, and she did not have to do this at all.

Xie Jingxing listened to Luo Tan in silence and looked at her with a
faint smile for a while before saying, "So?"
Luo Tan was speechless. "I told you just so you know." She felt
inexplicably suffocated and flustered, but she couldn't vent her
frustration in front of Xie Jingxingf. As she turned around and ran
away, she bumped into someone. She looked up and saw that it was
Gao Yang.
Gao Yang asked her what was wrong. Luo Tan glared at him and
left.
Xie Jing walked to the pond. He wanted to drink tea, but in the end,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe people around him in order to get the throne, he'd rather be an
ordinary person.
he called Eunuch Deng to take away the tea and bring a pot of wine.
Beside this pond, under the moonlight, it was once the place where
Empress Xiande and Emperor Yong Le drank the snow brew for the
last time. Everyone in the world felt sad that the love story between
Empress Xiande and Emperor Yong Le ended in such a tragedy. On
the surface, Xie Jingxing seemed to be luckier than Emperor Yong
Le. At least he was still alive, and as long as he was alive, anything
was possible.
However, what if Shen Miao did not wake up for the rest of her life?
What was he going to do with all the time he had in this world? Xie
Jingxing was not too enthusiastic about the throne. If he had to lose
the people around him in order to get the throne, he'd rather be an
ordinary person.

Footsteps were approaching. Xie Jingxing looked in the direction of
the sound and saw that it was Pei Lang.
Pei Lang was a gentleman who seemed to have never indulged
himself in alcohol in his life. A person like him struck people as
someone who was otherworldly and lofty and had great
self-discipline. However, he sat down opposite Xie Jingxing and
poured himself a glass of wine without being asked.
The wine cup made of jade emitted a faint light under the
moonlight.
Pei Lang said, "You're going to ascend the throne tomorrow.
Congratulations."
Xie Jingxing smiled, but he was not very happy.
"What about her?" Pei Lang went straight to the point and asked,
"What do you plan to do?"
Xie Jingxing slowly turned around and stared at Pei Lang for a while
before saying, "Mr. Pei, are you very concerned?"
"I used to be her teacher." Pei Lang was unmoved and continued,
"As well as friends. I won't blame you if you have a change of heart. Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt
I'm just curious."
"Oh?" Xie Jingxing lowered his head and took a sip of wine. He said
indifferently, "What do you think I should do?"
"Princess Consort once mentioned that she was not greedy for the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmposition of the empress or any power and status. However, if this is
her responsibility, she will bear it. She's not a benevolent person,
but she's willing to take on the responsibility for the people she
values the most."
"These people are the Shen family, the child in her stomach, and
you."
Pei Lang said, "Princess Consort said that her life has always been
especially bumpy, and the heavens are very strict with her. She's
never had a good life. Therefore, she never expected anything from
the heavens. The only wish she had was for the people she loved to
be safe and happy."
Xie Jingxing's eyes flickered.
Pei Lang turned to look at him and said with a smile, "She's never
had a good time. She has to spend a lot of effort to get something
that others can easily get. Even some small wishes are harder for
her than for others. Now, the hard times finally come to an end.
Before she could enjoy the good time, she fell unconscious. The
heavens are indeed too unfair to her. However, it's precisely
because she has never asked for anything from people that she
makes people admire her so much."
