Xie Lingxiao seemed not to notice and continued to increase his strength.

Shen Jingxuan gently pushed Xie Lingxiao away, "Ah Xiao..."

Hearing Shen Jingxuan's voice, Xie Lingxiao suddenly came back to his senses and looked at her in confusion, "Huh?"

"Let go, you're hurting me." Shen Jingxuan patted Xie Lingxiao's chest.

She was a little confused as to why Xie Lingxiao had been hugging her gently all the way, and why he suddenly became so tight.

After being slapped by Shen Jingxuan several times, Xie Lingxiao suddenly retracted his strength and put Shen Jing on the ground, his face full of regret.

He pulled Shen Jingxuan back and forth several times and asked anxiously: "Does it still hurt? Are there any other discomforts?"

What Xie Lingxiao was more worried about was that Shen Jingxuan would feel unwell before returning to the palace.

"No." Shen Jingxuan looked at him puzzledly, "What happened to you just now?"

Hearing this, Xie Lingxiao showed a big smile on his lips, "Xuan'er, turn around and take a look."

Seeing the smile on Xie Lingxiao's face, Shen Jingxuan suddenly turned around.

When her eyes fell on the animals' nests, her jaw almost dropped.

Shen Jingxuan and Xie Lingxiao stood at the gate of the orchard. They looked at the small nest in front of them and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Originally there were only two animals in a small den, but now it has become extremely crowded.

Some tiny animals had come out at some point and were wandering around the nest.

Shen Jingxuan looked at Xie Lingxiao in surprise, with a smile on her pretty face, "Ah Xiao, look, they really gave birth to cubs."

"Yeah." Xie Lingxiao responded with the corners of his lips curled.

Shen Jingxuan pulled Xie Lingxiao awkwardly into the orchard, and the more she looked, the more delighted she became.

Wherever they passed, the small nests that Xie Lingxiao had set up in advance were the same as the one at the gate of the garden.

The place was packed with animals of all sizes, and you couldn't tell their number at first glance.

Xie Lingxiao's hand holding Shen Jingxuan had already tightened.

As expected, they also could not return to the city as scheduled today.

He looked at the light in Shen Jingxuan's eyes and knew that she would never return to the palace with him unless everything was arranged.

"Ah Xiao, can we wait a day or two before returning to the palace?"

Sure enough, agreeing to let Shen Jingxuan enter the space was the worst decision he had ever made.

If he had not mentioned this just now, they would have been on their way back to the palace.

Xie Lingxiao's face was full of embarrassment, "Xuan'er..."

"Ah Xiao, as long as we send the emperor's pair of treasures away, we can go back to the palace, okay?"

Shen Jingxuan didn't wait for Xie Lingxiao to refuse, she hurriedly said: "I promise you, I will not find any excuse not to return to the palace when the time comes."

"Okay." Xie Lingxiao had no choice but to agree.

He knew that Shen Jingxuan was stubborn and it was difficult for her to change her mind once she made up her mind.

Shen Jingxuan didn't expect that Xie Lingxiao had already done everything after she had only slept for a short while in the space.

"Are you in such a hurry to return to the palace?"

Looking at the beads of sweat on Xie Lingxiao's forehead, Shen Jingxuan had no place to vent her unhappiness.

When she first stepped into the orchard, she was still thinking about how to delay her return to the palace, and finally she came up with a solution.

Shen Jingxuan didn't expect that Xie Lingxiao could get things done without stopping just to return to the palace earlier.

"Xuan'er, it's your stomach that can't wait." Xie Lingxiao corrected her.

If she wasn't about to give birth, he wouldn't want to return to the palace and would just want to stay with her forever.

Go anywhere she wants, do anything she wants.

But now Shen Jingxuan can do nothing but return to the palace and wait for the birth of the baby.

Those things she wanted to do but didn't do can only be done when the child is a little older.

Shen Jingxuan had no choice but to take Xie Lingxiao out of the space and return the treasures he had chosen to the emperor.

With Xie Lingxiao holding her in his arms, they walked in the courtyard very quickly.

Half an hour later, Xie Lingxiao carried Shen Jingxuan onto the carriage as he wished.

Looking at the carriage slowly moving forward, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Xie Lingxiao knew that Shen Jingxuan was delaying time again and again, and he didn't dare to give her a chance to come up with a reason to stay.

Shen Jingxuan looked at the sky outside, her lips tightly pursed.

At this moment, she felt for the first time how bad it was that time flowed too fast in space.

If the time was normal, Xie Lingxiao would need at least a few days to complete it.

Now, he has been busy in the space for so long, and it is just past noon outside.

Shen Jingxuan sat in the carriage with her eyes closed and didn't look at Xie Lingxiao.

The carriage rocked gently, and before long she fell asleep.

Xie Lingxiao looked at her sleeping appearance, and Zhang Jun's face finally became gentle and doting.

He has always been able to know most of Shen Jingxuan's thoughts, so how could he not know what she was thinking.

But this time, he really couldn't do as she wished.

The sun slowly sets and the glow slowly fades away.

A carriage drove straight into the palace without any obstruction.

Xie Lingxiao picked up Shen Jingxuan, got off the carriage, and returned to their bedroom.

As soon as they stepped into the bedroom, the news of their return to the palace reached the ears of the retired emperor.

"That worthless guy, has he finally decided to go back to the palace?"

After saying this, the Emperor Retired did not bother to have dinner with the Imperial Concubine, and turned to the bedroom of Xie Lingxiao and Shen Jingxuan.

"Xie Lingxiao, come out here."

The retired emperor stood outside the bedroom and yelled without waiting for the guards to pass on the message.

Xie Lingxiao paused after putting Shen Jingxuan down, then continued to put her on the bed.

Shen Jingxuan's eyebrows were tightly knitted, "So noisy."

After she finished speaking, she slowly opened her eyes, looked at the familiar furnishings, and asked, "Ah Xiao, what happened outside the bedroom?"

Xie Lingxiao looked unhappy, "The emperor is here, I'll go take a look."

The retired emperor was well-informed. As soon as the emperor stepped into the bedroom, he was followed by his father.

Shen Jingxuan grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Will nothing happen?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Xie Lingxiao said.

The reason why the retired emperor looked for him was simply because Xie Ziling was taking a rest that day and asked him to review the memorials alone.

What else could he do?

Suddenly thinking of something, Xie Lingxiao raised the corners of his lips, "Xuan'er, where is the animal in your space that looks like a cat and a tiger?"

"Find me a big one."

He heard from Ling Feng that although the emperor had collected so many treasures, his favorite ones were those two.

Even when he went to watch the fish, he held them in his arms.

Shen Jingxuan looked at him and raised her eyebrows, her consciousness searching in the space. After a moment, the animal that Xie Lingxiao mentioned appeared on her bed.

"Ah Xiao, it's rare for the emperor to be in the palace. If he sees this, will he be even angrier?"

"Don't worry, maybe he will be happier when he sees his baby."

After not seeing each other for so long, shouldn’t I miss you more?

Shen Jingxuan shook her head helplessly, "Are you going to use him to appease the emperor's anger?"

Just by listening to the emperor's roar just now, Shen Jingxuan knew that this time the emperor must have been very angry.
