The Queen sealed her heart and locked up her love, and the Emperor was trapped in the crematorium

However, it was not without gain. Correspondingly, Xiao Chengxu and Xie Siyue each had an extra bouquet of flowers in their hands.

When Xie Yaoqing was listening to his eldest nephew reciting with his head shaking, he casually raised his eyes and was stunned when he saw a big and a small nephew coming over with a bouquet of flowers.

She was a little confused. What was going on? Xiao Chengxu was not in the Imperial Study to handle government affairs. Why did he suddenly come to the Imperial Garden to play with the children in broad daylight?

The little girl Xie Siyue came running over with a smile, holding up the flowers and showing them to Xie Yaoqing as if she were presenting a treasure.

Xie Yaoqing smiled and touched her niece's face, praising her: "She's really pretty."

The little girl was so happy after hearing the compliment that her eyes curved into crescents from smiling, as satisfied as a kitten that had eaten fish.

At this time, Xie Siyue remembered something and said quickly: "Uncle's flowers are also very beautiful, aunt, you should also praise uncle~"

Through the act of picking flowers, the little girl and Xiao Chengxu became more familiar with each other. When she saw that her aunt only looked at the flowers she picked, she suddenly remembered her ally - Xiao Chengxu.

After hearing what the little girl said, Xiao Chengxu immediately stepped forward and handed the flowers in his hand to Xie Yaoqing.

Xie Yaoqing took a look at it, but did not reach out to take it. The corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a hint of a smile, "Well, it's quite beautiful."

Xie Siyue looked at her aunt on the left, then at her uncle on the right, and always felt like something was strange. Her little eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and her originally fair and tender little face was wrinkled into a ball, like a bitter gourd.

Xie Siyan's face was also full of confusion. Is the relationship between aunt and uncle good? Or is it bad? He really couldn't figure it out.

If his uncle asked, what would he say?

I feel like adults are so hard to understand.

Xie Siyan scratched his head in distress.

On this day, Xiao Chengxu naturally stayed to have lunch with Xie Yaoqing, her aunt and nephew.

In front of the two children, Xie Yaoqing would still pay attention to Xiao Chengxu, unlike the previous few days when she treated him as if he didn't exist and ignored him all the time.

Xiao Chengxu keenly noticed the slight softening of Xie Yaoqing's attitude, and he was delighted. He took the opportunity to show his courtesy and kept picking up food for Xie Yaoqing.

Looking at the increasing amount of food in the bowl, Xie Yaoqing spoke calmly, "Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness, but it is not necessary."

Xiao Chengxu's hand paused as he was picking up the food, then he turned around as if nothing had happened and put the braised lion's head into his bowl.

While eating, Xiao Chengxu suddenly started coughing.

The coughing became louder and louder, and it kept on going on and on, as if he was going to cough out all his internal organs. It was very uncomfortable to hear.

Xie Yaoqing frowned slightly.

She had heard Xiao Chengxu cough before, but never this severely.

I don't know when Xiao Chengxu developed this coughing problem.

After a while, the coughing finally stopped. Xiao Chengxu raised his head, glanced at Xie Yaoqing, and uttered a few words in a sullen voice, "I'll go take care of government affairs first."

Then he stood up and left, looking somewhat panicked.

Feeling someone pulling her sleeve, Xie Yaoqing lowered her head and saw that it was her niece. She asked gently, "What's wrong? Yueyue, what dish do you want to eat? Auntie will pick it up for you."

The little girl shook her head and asked softly, "Aunt, is uncle sick?"

Xie Yaoqing was slightly stunned.

"Why did Yueyue say that? Is it because uncle was coughing just now?"

The little girl shook her head and looked at Xie Yaoqing with her big watery eyes, her tone filled with worry, "No, I saw my uncle coughing up blood. My third uncle said that only people who are very sick will cough up blood."

She also had good eyesight and actually saw Xiao Chengxu coughing up blood, but Xie Yaoqing and Xie Siyan didn't notice it.

Hearing this, Xie Yaoqing's heart sank suddenly, and his eyelids began to twitch uncontrollably.

Coughing up blood?

He was so young, not even 30 years old, and he was already coughing up blood. Could it be that Xiao Chengxu was still a short-lived ghost? What incurable disease did Xiao Chengxu have?

But Xie Yaoqing clearly remembered that in her previous life, Xiao Chengxu had always been in good health. At least before she committed suicide, he was still alive and well, able to eat, drink, sleep, run and jump, and did not seem to have any physical problems.

Just then, Feng An hurried in with a panic-stricken look on his face. He seemed to have something important to tell Xie Yaoqing, but he was hesitant and didn't say it. He looked as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

Xie Yaoqing immediately understood Feng An's concerns. She glanced at her nephews and nieces who were having a meal, and then asked Nanny Fang and Zhiyu to take care of them.

Then he made an excuse to go out.

Feng An felt relieved and hurriedly followed Xie Yaoqing to the corridor outside.

"What's wrong? Did something happen to your master?"

Feng An nodded, his face full of anxiety, his voice trembling: "Empress, something terrible has happened, the Emperor has vomited blood and is unconscious!"

Xie Yaoqing's heart skipped a beat and she almost lost her balance. She subconsciously grabbed Feng An's arm and asked, "What?"

The previous second she heard her little niece say that she saw Xiao Chengxu coughing up blood, and the next second Feng An came to report that he had vomited blood and fainted. How could she not be shocked?

Feng An quickly recounted the whole story. It turned out that Xiao Chengxu did not go to the imperial study after leaving, but wanted to go to the bedroom to rest. However, just as he reached the door of the bedroom, he suddenly bent over, leaned over and spit out a large mouthful of blood, and then he fainted, which scared all the palace people.

"What are you standing there for? Go get the doctor."

Xie Yaoqing's face turned pale.

Feng An hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Madam, I have just sent someone to the Imperial Hospital."

Feng An was an old man in the palace. Although he was a little flustered when encountering a major event like the emperor's accident, he knew exactly what he should do. He asked the young eunuch to go to the Imperial Hospital to invite the imperial physician, and told the palace maids to take good care of Xiao Chengxu. After doing all this, he rushed to tell Xie Yaoqing the news.

After all, Xie Yaoqing is the queen, the only master in the palace. Now that Xiao Chengxu is in trouble, no one can take charge of the matter except Xie Yaoqing. If Xie Yaoqing does not get the news, and Xiao Chengxu has an accident, then Feng An will be implicated.

"Does the Queen want to go and see the Emperor?"

Xie Yaoqing nodded and staggered, Feng An quickly supported her.
