Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1812

She took small bites of the glutinous rice ball, her eyebrows lowered, a faint smile and tenderness at the corners of her lips, as if she was savoring the most precious taste in the world.

In the past, he was always in her life.

Now, it no longer matters whether he is there or not.

Her happiness had nothing to do with him anymore.

He could not influence her sorrow or joy.

Shi Chengyi looked at her expression, and suddenly something moved in his heart. He leaned forward slightly and asked tentatively, "Would you like to go to the West Market with me this afternoon?"

Yu Sujun raised her eyes, her expression normal, "Okay, Xue'er, let's go too. It's a rare trip, we should at least take a look around."

As bright as the candlelight, Shi Anxue nodded happily, "Okay."

Shi Chengyi chewed the glutinous rice balls slowly. The fragrant taste melted between his lips and teeth, and a long-lost warmth rose in his heart.

It’s like the old days are quietly returning, and it’s like that warmth has never really left.

Compared to Shi Chengyi's reaction, Shi Chengxuan's was much more intense.

He was shocked when Emperor Mingde abdicated, but the fact that his ex-wife was going to become the Empress Dowager was the real blow.

Abdication is a matter of state, and he just listened to it. But his ex-wife wanted to marry and become the Empress Dowager, which was a family matter that was closely related to him.

He never dreamed that Tang Chujun would have such good fortune. How could she, Tang Chujun, be so worthy of such a gift!

A divorced woman, why, why, why? He was still waiting to reunite with her.

In fact, after he knew about the affairs of those two people, he never took it seriously and didn't even take it to heart.

There are so many young ladies waiting for Emperor Mingde to choose. How blind must one be to be interested in a divorced woman?

But he just fell in love with her. Oh my God! An emperor actually came to snatch his wife!

Shi Chengxuan didn't want to live anymore.

Chang Wu went to tell Madam Gu this.

Madam Gu didn't care and said, "Don't worry, no matter who wants to die, your master won't want to die."

Shi Chengxuan fell seriously ill and felt dizzy all day. When he went out to talk to his daughter about his worries, Madam Gu told him, "The princess has left for Iron Horse City."

Shi Chengxuan's eyes were filled with pain, "She, she didn't even come to say goodbye to me! Does she really think of me as her father?"

He wanted to cry so much! She had an emperor as her father, she didn't want him as her biological father anymore!

He fell back onto the bed, lying like a corpse.

Madam Gu hadn't visited him for some time. Just now, Chang Wu asked her to come and talk with him, saying that he felt his master would be heartbroken and die.

Madam Gu didn't agree with it, but she came anyway.

She held the teacup in her hand and sat down on the armchair three steps away from the bed, blowing the tea foam leisurely. "The day before the princess left Beijing, all the important people in the city who were on good terms with her went to the young master's mansion to see her off. Those who sent food, clothes, and daily necessities had to line up to see the princess."

She raised her eyes and glanced at the bed curtains. "As a father, have you ever prepared something for me?"

Shi Chengxuan didn't want to hear it, so he pulled the brocade quilt over his head, and the pine and crane patterns embroidered on the quilt began to shake violently.

Madam Gu was not annoyed. She just put the teacup on the table, making a crisp sound.

She didn't care whether he liked to hear it or not. This was her house, and since he lived in her house, he had to be aware of being a guest under someone else's roof.

Madam Gu twisted the jade bracelet on her wrist, which was a return gift from Mr. Chu Sheng. She was reluctant to take it off. "You always blame your children for not recognizing you as their father, but you never ask yourself, what have you done for your children?"

The quilt was suddenly opened, and Shi Chengxuan's forehead was throbbing with veins. "Are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me today? Why are you starting to lecture me again?"
