Chapter 555 - 555-Messy With Care
“Can the emperor let you go?” Xiao Baoxin asked.
She wasn’t that kind of person to insist that Xie Xian insisted on being on the front line of his job.
If Xie Xian was by her side during labor, although it would not be of any practical use and he would not be able to give birth to the child for her, she would at least have a psychological pillar. Naturally, she would be eager for him to accompany her.
Moreover, looking at how he was frightened out of his wits at the slightest movement, she expressed her doubts that he would be able to wait in the palace peacefully.
However, she also knew that Emperor Yong Ping relied heavily on him. Hearing Xie Xian’s request to take leave was not something that could be done in a day or two. After all, although the date of labor was approaching, no one knew exactly when it would happen.
Xie Xian swore that he would stay by her side to give birth, so he would definitely be taking a leave of absence nearby.
Xiao Baoxin’s heart was filled with sweetness.
Xie Xian felt strange.” My wife is giving birth, so I’m taking leave to accompany the Emperor. Why can’t I?” Moreover, I’ve even thought of an excuse. I won’t make things difficult for the emperor. I’ll just say that I’ve been tired recently and my body isn’t feeling well, so I’ll take leave to recuperate.”
“The emperor doesn’t want to exhaust this donkey to death before he finishes using it.”
Before he could finish, Xiao Baoxin had already reached out and pinched his waist. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
She didn’t want to hear him say these words.
If it was someone else, they might really just say it casually. However, Xiao Baoxin understood him. This fellow had a very heavy heart, and his body was the biggest worry in his life. When she had just married into the Xie family, he had been thinking about what would happen to her after he died day and night. Everything was planned for after he died…
It was only after he was pregnant with his child that he finally changed his mind a little.
“I know you don’t like it, so I won’t say anything.”Xie Xian grimaced and held Xiao Baoxin’s small hand in his hand.
In the evening, the sky was filled with multicolored clouds. He looked at Xiao Baoxin standing under the setting sun. His smile was filled with anger, and his entire person was dazzling.
“Don’t worry, the Emperor will definitely approve.”
If he didn’t allow it, he would pretend to be sick.
Emperor Yong Ping couldn’t go to the Xie residence and drag him to the morning court, right?
Xie Xian smiled. He had his own plans in his heart. If he couldn’t even accomplish such a small matter, he wouldn’t need to mingle in the imperial court anymore.
###
It was rare for Xie Xian to return to the residence early. The young couple held Xiao Baoxin’s big belly and chatted for half a night. They chatted from the previous dynasty to the back residence, and then from the Xie family to the Xiao family. They chatted until Xiao Baoxin fell asleep.
“You must be born safely. Don’t make things difficult for your mother…” Xie Xian stroked Xiao Baoxin’s big belly and whispered.
Zhen: If I didn’t see that my mother was really tired, I would have kicked her to give Father Xie a response.
After all, he was an emperor in his previous life, and in this life, he was remarried to his mother’s womb, so it was not impossible for him to give birth.
If that wasn’t a fortuitous encounter given to him by the heavens, he would be imprisoned for ten months.
Zhen had watched Xie Xian scare himself all the way until now. Seeing that he was about to give birth, there was finally hope. He was also afraid that Xie Xian would fall ill from fright.
It was another sleepless night.
Xiao Baoxin had woken up three times in the night to go out for a small visit. Every time, she would see Xie Xian staring at her with a pair of bright eyes. In the end, she was tired of looking at him.
If you continue to be like this, do you believe that I will punch him out?”If this continued, would he still want to pretend to be sick? She really got sick from all the suffering.
I believe it!
Zhen believes it, don’t be agitated, mother!
Xiao Baoxin gritted his teeth and patted his stomach, signaling him to shut up.
Who knew that this action would scare Xie Xian. His face instantly turned pale, and he directly pounced on her and grabbed her arm.”Don’t hit me! Are you-”
The words of reprimand were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn’t bear to say them.
“Stop fooling around! Her belly was already so big. What if she really got it?!”
I was speechless.
Can’t you be a little more manly and rise up?
Father? Father!
” I’m not messing around with you.” Xiao Baoxin glared at Xie Xian.” If you continue to be so anxious, I’ll be scared to death.” Didn’t I tell you that I’ll give birth safely? Don’t worry about the loss of the word,”
Xie Xian thought to himself, Is this something that can be known without worry?
He also knew that his wife had given birth to several children in her previous life…
Why was it that even though he was only thinking about it in his head, the voice behind the screen was gnashing his teeth?
However, he felt that his heart was in the air. He couldn’t rest until he saw her give birth safely.
“Do you know that ‘caring makes you jumble’? This isn’t something that can be settled just by knowing.” Xie Xian’s eyes turned green, and his voice was filled with helplessness. How could he be willing to be so afraid?
It was fine if he was afraid, but it also affected Xiao Baoxin.
One had to know that he had already deliberately been extremely careful and restrained.
But this kind of thing couldn’t be restrained just by being careful.
How could Xiao Baoxin not know that Xie Xian was flustered because of concern, but he was also-too flustered, simply confused. She was 30% angry, but 70% heartbroken.
“Just miss me a little.” She rolled her eyes at Xie Xian and gave him a gentle push.
“Hurry up and go to bed to rest. The closer you are to labor, the more restless you are. How can you sleep enough every day? Why don’t you ask for leave from the Emperor tomorrow? At least at night, when you’re so scared that you can’t sleep, you can still sleep in the manor during the day.”
This was exactly what Xie Xian wanted. He had originally planned to do so as well.
It wasn’t to rest, but purely to look at Xiao Baoxin.
Xiao Baoxin had been pregnant for ten months, but he was not obese. His limbs were still slender, and he had a big belly. It was like a chopstick with a lantern stuck on it.
He always looked a little scary and was afraid that she would not be able to bear it.
It was already late at night, so the couple didn’t talk much and rested.
After Emperor Yong Ping ascended the throne, there were frequent wars. There were always urgent military matters, so he went to court every day. Actually, according to the rules, there was no need to do so. The late emperor often visited once every three to five days.
After leaving the court, Xie Xian told Emperor Yong Ping that he was on leave.
Emperor Yong Ping immediately panicked. Everyone knew that Xie Xian was a medicine jar. The late emperor was also sick from time to time and recuperated at home. However, ever since he ascended the throne and saw that his health was improving day by day, he thought that he was fated to fall ill. The Dragon Qi protected his body, and Xie Xian was his left and right arm. With him by his side protected by the Dragon Qi, the heavens blessed him and protected Xie Xian to be at his beck and call. How could he fall ill just like that?
“Why don’t we call the imperial doctor to take my beloved minister’s pulse? He couldn’t afford to be careless. It was a critical period for Daliang, and his beloved minister couldn’t fall.”Although Emperor Yong Ping was wary of Xie Xian, he also relied heavily on him in his heart.
It was Xie Xian’s fault that he had been able to make several plans to ensure Daliang’s peace today.
Emperor Yong Ping was very worried. Recently, he noticed that Xie Aiqing’s complexion was not as good as before. Her eyes were always dark and blue. Even the flesh that she had previously replenished had disappeared, and she had become thinner. He really had the demeanor of a sickly young master in the past.
“Why don’t you stay in the palace and let the Imperial Academy of Medicine and the Imperial Kitchen nourish you with both medicine and food?”
