Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces

Chapter 53: The Infatuated Emperor and His Love-Brained Concubine (52)

In the next few days, Xiao Huai went out early and came back late.

Although he didn't say anything, Sui Ning understood that he was building the room.

A room that tried to trap her.

This evening.

When Xiao Huai returned, he brought with him a colorful parrot.

Sui Ning pretended not to know and asked, "What is this?"

Xiao Huai smiled and embraced Sui Ning, holding her on his lap.

"I was worried that Ningning would get bored staying in the palace all day, so I specially had someone find a lively and well-behaved parrot to entertain you."

Sui Ning shook her head, "I'm fine the way I am now."

Then she looked at Xiao Huai meaningfully and asked, "But... Your Majesty, do you think this parrot will be happy being trapped in a cage all day?"

Xiao Huai pursed his lips tightly, his eyes deep, "Here there are thousands of servants, and it is being served with fine clothes and delicious food, how could it not be happy?"

Sui Ning chuckled and said, "I'm not it, so I naturally don't know whether it's happy or not, but...if it were me, I would definitely be unhappy."

Xiao Huai's body stiffened, and the hands holding Sui Ning began to tremble slightly.

He tried his best to suppress the uneasiness in his heart and asked in a low voice: "Why?"

“I think no one wants to lose their freedom. Otherwise, no matter how bright and beautiful it looks, the thing itself is pathetic.”

Sui Ning asked meaningfully, "You said that, right?"

After hearing Sui Ning's words, Xiao Huai felt extremely confused.

It seemed as if two voices appeared in my mind, struggling with each other to the extreme.

A voice praised him.

Now that the secret room has been built, he just needs to bring Sui Ning there, and with the help of the talisman from the abbot of Huguo Temple, he can be with her forever!

Another voice condemned him.

Condemn his dark thoughts, he shouldn't use such despicable means on Sui Ning.

Two voices were fighting in his mind.

Xiao Huai was in a bad mood. He only told Sui Ning that he had not finished reviewing the memorial yet, and then left in a hurry.

When he arrived at the imperial study, Xiao Huai looked at the memorials in front of him and felt a headache.

As someone close to Xiao Huai, Eunuch Fu could best see through his thoughts. Seeing Xiao Huai like this, he was worried about him from the bottom of his heart.

"Your Majesty, please have some hot tea and rest for a while."

Xiao Huai asked with a gloomy look: "Eunuch Fu, do you think freedom is really important?"

Eunuch Fu understood and said, "It depends on personal pursuits. Some people are born with a love for power, fame and wealth. Freedom is naturally not worth mentioning to them."

"But some people are naturally unrestrained and love freedom, which cannot be bought with any amount of wealth, power, fame or fortune."

"Freedom may be more important to them than life."

Xiao Huai lowered his eyes and murmured thoughtfully: "Is it more important than life?"

Afterwards, he came to the secret room of Zhaoyang Palace alone.

The layout here is exactly the same as that of Guanju Palace, and he ordered people to rush to build it during this period.

Looking at the surrounding arrangements and recalling the words of Sui Ning and Eunuch Fu, Xiao Huai's chest began to ache.

But he still placed the talismans in his arms in front of the candlestick with trembling hands and burned them.

Looking at the talisman gradually turning into ashes in front of him, Xiao Huai felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if a huge hanging stone had fallen to the ground.

During this period of time, he was possessed by a demon.

If he loves Sui Ning, he should give her the best things in the world. How could he selfishly imprison her?

In this case, how is he different from a robber?

This is not only a blasphemy but also a harm to Sui Ning.

When Xiao Huai returned to Guanju Palace, Sui Ning had already gone to bed early.

Xiao Huai moved lightly, undressed, and went straight to the bed to hug her.

He looked at Sui Ning with deep eyes, his phoenix eyes were filled with her figure, leaving no room for anything else.

Xiao Huai slowly leaned over, and his hot lips fell on her forehead, nose tip and lips corners bit by bit.

She murmured, "Ningning, I will never hurt you..."

for a long time.

Feeling the steady breathing beside her, Sui Ning raised the corners of her mouth slightly, reached out to hug Xiao Huai back, and fell into a deep sleep.

------

Ever since Xiao Huai opened his heart, he and Sui Ning have resumed their previous closeness.

He cherishes every day he spends with Sui Ning.

this day.

Xiao Huai specially asked the imperial kitchen to make five-spice hibiscus stuffed white fish, wanting Sui Ning to try it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the food was served, Sui Ning felt stomach acid rising up and started vomiting as soon as she smelled it.

Sui Ning has always been in good health and has never had any illness.

Now he suddenly changed his behavior, which scared Xiao Huai.

Seeing Xiao Huai's fearful expression, the imperial physician smiled and announced the good news, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! The Empress is pregnant!"

When Xiao Huai first heard the news, he was stunned.

After coming to his senses, he was ecstatic and felt as if his heart no longer belonged to him. The joy in his heart was difficult to express in words.

The imperial physician continued, "Your Majesty is already two months pregnant, and the fetus is relatively stable, but you still need to be careful..."

Xiao Huai listened carefully and confirmed with the imperial physician from time to time.

Finally, he asked the Imperial Hospital to come and examine Sui Ning every day to ensure that everything was safe.

He gently placed his hand on Sui Ning's abdomen and said in surprise and joy: "Ning Ning, the child... this is our child..."

As he spoke, Xiao Huai pretended to put his head gently on Sui Ning's belly, as if he wanted to listen to what was going on.

Looking at Xiao Huai's slightly exaggerated expression, Sui Ning smiled helplessly and said, "The child might not even be as big as a soybean now, you can't hear anything."

"Shh----"

Xiao Huai raised his head and whispered, "We can't be so careless in the future. The children will hear us."

"How can it be so exaggerated?" Sui Ning was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

But Xiao Huai insisted on his own opinion, and Sui Ning had no choice but to compromise.

Because Sui Ning was pregnant, Xiao Huai specially rewarded the harem, and every palace maid and eunuch received rewards of varying sizes.

For a time, the entire harem was filled with joy because Sui Ning was pregnant.

"Ningning, our first world mission just showed as completed!" Liuliu said excitedly, "Headquarters also distributed the merit points for completing our mission."

As he spoke, Liu Liu showed the system panel to Sui Ning.

[Successfully retaliate against Xiao Hechuan +1000 Merit Points]

[Protect Shangshu Mansion +100 Merit Points]

[Protect Xiao Huai, stabilize the Great Xiao Empire +500 Merit Points]

[Royal Hunting Ground Rescue Operation, additional reward of merit points +200]

[Total points: 1800]

Sui Ning nodded, "Pay back the merit coins you owed me in the mall first. The remaining merit value will be split 50-50 between you and me. You can deduct it from the account yourself."

After paying off the debt, Liu Liu was very excited when he saw the 895 merit points freshly printed on the account.

This is the first time it has so many merit points.

It feels so good to do the tasks!
