The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack: The Evil King's Doctor Consort's Ent

Chapter 327 I will never abandon you

That makes sense; anyone would feel uncomfortable lying in bed for such a long time.

"I don't know either. I've had a medical check-up and there's nothing seriously wrong, so I haven't taken this little thing to heart. I just thought I was overworked."

Gu Lingzhi had already discovered this when she left the capital for Donglai Island.

I often feel dizzy and want to sleep.

However, it wasn't serious enough to cause immediate collapse at that time. Who would have thought that the first time it happened, it would appear right in front of Mo Jiuxiao?

That makes sense, though. This situation is really dangerous. The worst thing would be if someone fainted in front of others.

"I might have some kind of hypersomnia. I'll be more careful when I go out in the future and won't make you worry anymore."

Gu Lingzhi made up her mind that she would never go out alone again.

Mo Jiuxiao frowned; he had a vague feeling that things weren't so simple.

"An'er, Xing'er, you don't need to go to school these next few days. Stay in the palace and keep your mother company!"

"Uh-huh!"

Two excited voices echoed in the room as Xing'er and An'er obediently stood beside Gu Lingzhi.

Gu Lingzhi felt a warmth in her heart as she looked at the two children's faces, and a string in her heart seemed to be plucked.

That wonderful feeling is something that people who have never been mothers can hardly understand.

She held the two children in her arms, one on each side, and kissed their foreheads.

"Mother will never abandon you!"

A slight smile played at the corners of her lips, and her eyes grew even more determined.

In any case, she will find out why she often feels sleepy.

He rested well in the palace for half a month, and the New Year was over, and everything returned to normal.

Gu Lingzhi felt that she would no longer have any problems, so she took her two children outside for a walk.

At this time, Nanhua also sent a letter.

The letter was written by Murong Ye, and what he said was very simple: Emperor Nanhuai had suddenly fallen seriously ill and wanted to see him one last time.

Mo Jiuxiao didn't want to go at first, but in the end he decided to go himself to unravel the past causes and effects.

Gu Lingzhi took her two children with her, and the family of four went out together, seemingly for a picnic.

When Gu Lingzhi saw Emperor Nanhuai again, she seemed not to recognize him.

Although she had a good impression of Emperor Nanhuai when they first met, Gu Lingzhi was puzzled by several things he did afterward.

Murong Lian stood to the side, a faint smile on his face.

That fox-like face was as annoying as ever.

Gu Lingzhi stood in front of Emperor Nanhuai, holding the hand of one of the children. Emperor Nanhuai looked at An'er and Xing'er, and his face, which showed signs of aging, seemed to be beaming with joy.

"Good, really good, child, let me see..."

As elders, Gu Lingzhi and Mo Jiuxiao also showed Emperor Nanhuai the utmost respect.

In addition, since he genuinely cared for the two children, Gu Lingzhi did not reject An'er and Xing'er's attempts to get close to them.

"Go."

Upon receiving the order, An'er stood obediently by the bedside, glancing at the old man on the bed.

In just a few short years, Emperor Nanhuai has aged considerably.

Perhaps it was the passage of time, or perhaps something happened, but Emperor Nanhuai's originally fairly good complexion began to show signs of decline.

Gu Lingzhi was still a little incredulous that this person looked so old, even though he was not even fifty years old.

"An'er, Xing'er, Grandpa doesn't have much to give you. In a little while, someone will take them to the Treasure Pavilion to see if there's anything they like. They can pick whatever they like!"

An'er and Xing'er exchanged a glance and shook their heads: "Grandpa, we don't lack those things."

"This is a token of my appreciation. Besides, not everything in the Treasure Pavilion is precious; there are also many novelties that you two little ones will surely enjoy."

He had gentle features and spoke softly, as if afraid of frightening the two children.

Gu Lingzhi noticed that Emperor Nanhuai had already paid great attention to these two little ones when they were still in his womb, and now it goes without saying that he would do so even more.

It was clearly her and Mo Jiuxiao who met with Emperor Nanhuai, but in the end it turned into someone else's family reunion.

Emperor Nanhuai held his two children tightly, ignoring them completely, and let them relax on their own.

They quietly slipped out of the room, followed by Murong Lian.

Murong Lian sighed softly, "Father seems to like An'er and Xing'er very much."

"Few people would dislike my children."

"..."

This left Murong Lian speechless for a long time. He sighed and rubbed his forehead. "Never mind that. The Emperor has already prepared an imperial edict to hand over Nanhuai to you as well. Are you prepared to accept it?"

Mo Jiuxiao lowered his eyes and said, "The merger of the two countries is a major event. Isn't it a bit unreasonable to be so hasty?"

Mainly, he really didn't want to worry about anything more.

Managing Bei Yi alone already takes up a lot of his time every day. If he were to manage Nan Huai as well, he probably wouldn't even have time to spend with Gu Lingzhi.

Therefore, he will not agree no matter what you say.

Mo Jiuxiao lowered his eyes slightly and focused his gaze on Murong Lian.

"You keep saying you're loyal to me; now it's your turn to prove it."

Murong Lian was slightly taken aback.

"what?"

"You are the prince of Nanhuai and the rightful heir. In today's turbulent world, the key to ensuring our survival is not simply to forcibly merge the two countries, but to find a qualified leader."

Mo Jiuxiao's voice was solemn, and he lowered his eyes slightly, a glint of light flickering in them.

"Therefore, it would be best if you were the emperor of Nanhuai. Murong Lian, I believe that with your intelligence, you should know what the best course of action is!"

Murong Lian was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Well... it wasn't jubilation, nor did it show any joy; it was just pure surprise.

"This...is not good!"

Murong Lian tried to refuse, carefully considering how to persuade Mo Jiuxiao, but suddenly heard Mo Jiuxiao say, "If you don't want to stay here, you can come back with me and become my subject, serving my orders every day. What do you think?"

Murong Lian didn't hesitate and bowed directly to Mo Jiuxiao.

"Your subordinate obeys. I am willing to stay here and will definitely become Your Majesty's strongest support for the rest of my life."

He only guaranteed his own lifespan, not his future.

However, this was enough for Mo Jiuxiao.

He remained silent for a moment, then met Gu Lingzhi's gaze.

Gu Lingzhi smiled helplessly, "If Emperor Nanhuai heard this, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of bed and beat you up."

The throne was simply decided like this; I doubt anyone could accept that.

However, Gu Lingzhi chose to believe Mo Jiuxiao's decision.
