The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

When Xie Lingxiao arrived at the bedroom, Shen Jingxuan was no longer there.

He hurriedly ordered Ling Feng to look for her, but unexpectedly, Ling Feng ordered people to search the entire palace, but there was no sign of Shen Jingxuan.

Not only Shen Jingxuan, but also Xie Boxu, Xie Jingle, Ling Qiong and Ling Huan were nowhere to be seen.

"Where is the queen?" Xie Lingxiao asked coldly.

"Master, the Queen must have left the palace, and the Crown Prince and the Second Prince are not in the bedroom either."

Xie Lingxiao said angrily: "Should it be? Lingfeng, if you can't do it well, go back to Luofeng Temple to train and let Lingchen come over."

"Master, Master, I can do it. I will ask the person guarding the palace gate right now."

After Ling Feng finished speaking, he quickly disappeared from Xie Lingxiao's sight without waiting for him to continue.

Xie Lingxiao looked at the empty bedroom and sat there with his lips pursed.

Ever since he moved into the palace, he had kept track of Shen Jingxuan's every move, so how could he not notice her changes?

No matter how well she pretended to be in front of him, he knew that she was unhappy living in the palace.

But his current identity does not allow him to do whatever he wants.

Xie Lingxiao waited for a while, and seeing that Ling Feng had not returned yet, he stood up and walked towards the palace gate.

Halfway through the journey, he saw Ling Feng returning in a hurry.

"Master, the Queen has left the palace. The guard at the gate said that Ling Qiong told him that the Queen has returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

Ling Feng followed Xie Lingxiao's footsteps while reporting. The two of them left the palace and headed straight for the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion.

Upon learning that Shen Jingxuan and the children were at Fufeng Courtyard, Xie Lingxiao quickened his pace.

"Xuan'er, how are you doing in the palace these days?"

"Don't worry, grandma. Everything is fine."

When Ling Qiong heard Shen Jingxuan's words, she became even more dissatisfied with Xie Lingxiao.

He clearly already had a way to resolve the issue raised by the minister, but he did not mention it to the Empress.

Only she knew how sad the queen was.

Thinking that Shen Jingxuan had not eaten much in the past two days, Ling Qiong stood in the distance and pursed her lips tightly.

Old Madam Shen laughed and said, "Le'er is such a naughty boy. He is never idle for a moment."

Mr. Shen glanced at her and said, "A child this young should play like Le'er."

He glanced at Xu'er who was sitting obediently beside him and asked, "Why doesn't Xu'er go play?"

"Great-grandfather, those are things that only children would do."

He is the prince, there are some things he cannot do just because he wants to.

When Xie Lingxiao stepped into the room, he happened to hear Xie Boxu's words. Looking at his well-behaved appearance, his brows furrowed.

The identity of the prince was like a shackle that ultimately bound Xu'er's childish mind.

"Xu'er, although you are the prince, you are still young. You can do the same thing that Le'er can do."

Xie Lingxiao gently stroked the top of Xie Boxu's head: "Do whatever you want to do, don't think too much about other things."

Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen stood up and wanted to salute Xie Lingxiao, but he hurriedly stopped them.

"Grandpa and grandma, don't be so formal. Just keep things the same as before."

"This..." Old Madam Shen hesitated.

Xie Lingxiao smiled and said, "It's okay, we are all family, there is no need to care about those empty formalities."

Seeing Xie Lingxiao's tense body as usual, Old Madam Shen slowly relaxed.

Xie Boxu took Xie Lingxiao's hand and shook it gently: "Daddy, can I really play with Le'er like I did?"

"Go and have fun, just like you did in the palace before, you can do whatever you want." Xie Lingxiao said slowly.

Hearing Xie Lingxiao's words, Xie Boxu showed a childish smile on his face and turned around to run to find Xie Jingle.

Mr. Shen smiled and said, "This is what a child should be like."

Xie Lingxiao frowned and said, "Maybe it was because of what I said to him before that made him follow the rules and not dare to slack off at all. I didn't notice it in advance."

He turned to look at Shen Jingxuan, and seeing that she lowered her eyes and remained silent, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Madam Shen noticed something strange between the two of them and looked at Mr. Shen: "Let's go see Xu'er and Le'er, don't run away anymore."

"Okay." Mr. Shen supported her and walked out together. Ling Qiong followed them out.

Xie Lingxiao looked at the two of them gratefully and nodded.

With them around, there were some things he couldn't say. Now that there were only two of them left, Xie Lingxiao pursed his lips and said, "Xuan'er..."

Seeing Shen Jingxuan sitting there motionless, Xie Lingxiao came to her and held her cheek with his hands.

"If you want to leave the palace, you can tell me. Don't leave without saying anything in the future. I will be worried."

"it is good."

Xie Lingxiao and Shen Jingxuan looked at each other, and Shen Jingxuan's almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly and looked away.

She didn't want to leave alone, but there were some things she couldn't tell anyone, and she wanted to leave the palace to relax.

Xie Lingxiao picked her up and put her on his lap: "I know you're bored in the palace alone. Wait a little longer. When Xu'er is older, I'll take you out of the palace."

"Xuan'er, I will not expand my harem. No matter what those ministers say, there will only be you in my harem."

"Just like the oath we made, you have to believe me. I will always keep it in my heart."

Not only those vows, but every word he and Shen Jingxuan said was remembered in his heart, as were her words.

Shen Jingxuan whispered: "Ah Xiao, I don't disbelieve you, I just want to go out of the palace for a walk."

"Okay, if you want to leave the palace in the future, I will accompany you." Xie Lingxiao said.

Shen Jingxuan suddenly looked at him, hesitated for a moment, looked at him and shook her head slightly.

He is the emperor, and there are so many important matters in the court waiting for him to make decisions. How could he have more time to accompany me?

Xie Lingxiao kissed Shen Jingxuan's forehead gently: "Don't worry, I said I would accompany you, and I will definitely accompany you."

"Really?" Shen Jingxuan asked.

It wasn't that she was throwing a tantrum on purpose, it was just that she didn't know what was wrong with her lately. Seeing Xie Lingxiao busying around in the palace, she always felt extremely irritated.

"Really?" Xie Lingxiao affirmed.

In the past, he had been sticking to Shen Jingxuan all day long, so how could he not notice her changes?

Even though the time he spent with Shen Jingxuan each day was reduced, he did not miss anything related to her.

After hearing what Xie Lingxiao said, Shen Jingxuan's mood improved for no reason.

"Let's go see Xu'er and Le'er."

"No, it's rare to have grandparents with us, you and I can be alone, we can't let them disturb us."

Shen Jingxuan wanted to continue speaking, but Xie Lingxiao said, "Shall I take you for a walk on the street?"

"Is it okay?" Shen Jingxuan's eyes lit up.

"Nothing is impossible." Xie Lingxiao said with a smile.

He took Shen Jingxuan's hand and walked out together, but was stopped by Shen Jingxuan.

"No, we can't be out on the street like this."

As the emperor, if Xie Lingxiao appeared on the street like this, they would be unable to move.

Shen Jingxuan glanced at Xie Lingxiao's dragon robe and couldn't help but rub her forehead gently.

He knew he was going to leave the palace, couldn't he change his clothes?

Shen Jingxuan had no choice but to take out the clothes that Xie Lingxiao had placed in the space and hand them to him.

"Change your clothes first, and I'll take care of the rest."

"Okay, ma'am, wait a moment."

After Xie Lingxiao finished speaking, he walked towards the inner room.

He also wanted to ask Shen Jingxuan to help him change his clothes, but after looking at the furnishings in the room, he gave up the idea.

After all, it's not a room for two people, so there are many inconveniences.
