Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

 Chapter 359 makes you worry

This night is destined to make people unable to sleep.

Jingshu was guarding her two sleeping children and was crying so hard that she didn't know when tonight, she was suddenly pulled into a familiar embrace.

Jingshu raised her head sharply, and under the flickering candlelight, it was her husband Li Ling.

Li Ling looked at her condescendingly, with a hoarse voice: "I'm back."

Jingshu stared at him in disbelief for a long time. Although she never believed that Li Ling would die, the fact that Li Ling suddenly stood in front of her still made Jingshu a little unbelievable.

She stood up suddenly, because she had cried hard just now, and her body was very weak. With such a sudden movement, she fell into Li Ling's arms.

Li Ling hugged her tightly, kissed her hair, and said in a low and distressed voice: "I've made you worry, don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!"

Jingshu hugged Li Ling tightly, fearing that he would slip away if she relaxed a little.

Li Ling was worried about waking the children, so he leaned over to pick her up and strode towards the main room. It wasn't until Li Ling put her on the bed that Jing Shu came back to her senses.

Her husband is not dead and is back well.

Jing Shu looked at Li Ling and finally sobbed: "What on earth is going on? The news that my eldest brother got is that you and King Jin both fell off the cliff. I was scared to death. I thought you really abandoned me and you." Children, never come back."

Li Ling knelt down on the bed, stretched out his arms and hugged his young wife tightly into his arms, saying repeatedly: "Did you worry? It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

Since Li Ling can return safely, Jing Shu already has other desires, so how can she bear to blame him.

Jingshu was sullen in his arms. Her heart that had been hanging around for the past few days finally settled down. Li Ling's arms were warm and solid, giving her a strong support.

Jingshu lay in Li Ling's arms, greedily enjoying Li Ling's warm embrace. After a while, she asked in a low voice, "Did you encounter trouble on the way back?"

 Li Ling gently stroked his wife's hair, nodded and said: "We did encounter some trouble. I was just afraid that you would be worried, so I hurried back slowly."

After hearing what Li Ling said, Jing Shu raised her head from his arms, looked at him with a pair of watery tearful eyes and said: "Brother only found out the news tonight. Although I have been worried these past few days, the most uncomfortable thing is But this night.”

As she spoke, she couldn't help crying in grievance, and choked with sobs: "After tonight, after dawn, I really don't know how to face the children and how to face everyone."

Li Ling smiled slightly, cried pitifully for his wife, and replied softly: "I know your strength is only for a day or two."

Jingshu raised her hands and hugged Li Ling tightly, crying: "Don't scare me like this again."

Li Ling sighed slightly and said, "I can't bear to scare you, but if I don't take this step, I might not be able to come back so smoothly." Deep in the palace, inside the Chonghua Hall.

Concubine Meng was crying in Emperor Ming's arms until she fainted. The chamberlain ignored the strict palace rules and ran into the inner hall panting. She knelt on the ground with a thump and breathlessly replied: "Your Majesty, my empress." , Prince Jin is back!"

As soon as Concubine Meng heard this, she immediately came to life. Before Emperor Ming could speak, she hurriedly asked, "Where is King Jin?"

As soon as Concubine Meng finished speaking, King Jin strode into the inner hall. When Concubine Meng saw that her son was indeed back alive, she didn't even bother to put on her shoes, so she rushed towards her son and screamed one after another. He said: "My son, are you really back? My son, you scared my mother and concubine to death."

Prince Jin has experienced many dangers and tribulations this time. Although he has lost a lot of weight, his spirit at the moment is extremely high.

The prince failed to frame him many times, but he got the handle. Now he is the king who has returned, and he is destined to deprive the prince of his position as heir apparent.

The King of Jin did not care to chat with Concubine Meng. He gave a few perfunctory words of comfort to his mother, then knelt straight in front of Emperor Ming and said: "My son, I went to the northwest to suppress the rebel army. I was framed in every possible way by the treacherous ministers in the court. My son and Li The general overcame all difficulties and pacified the northwest, but on his way back to Beijing, he was plotted and intercepted again and again. He hoped that his father would make the decision for his son."

Emperor Ming was naturally overjoyed that his son could return safely. He quickly helped his son up and replied in a trembling voice: "Father will definitely make the decision for you. Father heard from the people who came to report that you and Boyue fell into the mountain stream. Go, what on earth is going on?"

The King of Jin had already composed his words. He sat down before Emperor Ming and talked eloquently: "My son and his cousin were on their way back to the capital. After only two days of traveling, they encountered a group of men in black who intercepted and killed them. Judging from their moves, they all They were raised dead soldiers. My son and my cousin led the defeated elites and tried their best to kill the thieves, but we also suffered heavy casualties."



His mouth was dry as he spoke, so he took two sips of the tea cup handed to him by Concubine Meng, and continued: "My son saw that the situation was not good, so he came up with a plan to escape the golden cicada's shell."

"Seeing that the thieves had not hurt Erchen, they came back again on the way the next day. This time they had more people, so Erchen used a trick to pretend that he and his cousin fell into the cliff, and then we took a few followers to disguise ourselves. Dress up, then you can deceive the thieves and come back safely."

After hearing her son's frightening experience, Concubine Meng wiped her tears and said: "These people are so vicious that they have to kill them all before they stop. Fortunately, Jin'er is both wise and brave, and can come up with such a way for the golden cicada to escape from its shell. Otherwise, he will be killed again." How can you escape the schemes and frame-up of these tigers and wolves?"

After hearing this, Emperor Ming let out a long sigh, patted his son on the shoulder, and praised: "Jin'er is really brave and resourceful, and he is the material to inherit the throne."

Although Zhao Jin is scheming, he is a coward. He was so frightened that he almost peed his pants when being chased, but he still had no brains to come up with any ideas. This method of escaping the golden cicada was naturally thought up by Li Ling, but King Jin didn't feel guilty at all after hearing Emperor Ming's praise.

He sighed slightly, leaned down and knelt at the feet of Emperor Ming again, pretending to be sad and said: "Thanks to my father for your compliments, but now those people are blatantly trying to kill me, and I still ask my father to make the decision." .”

Concubine Meng took the opportunity to follow her son and knelt down, crying to Emperor Ming: "Your Majesty, now the queen and the prince have made Jin'er a thorn in their flesh. If you hesitate any longer, sooner or later we, mother and son, will die without a place to hide."

With that said, she kowtowed deeply to Emperor Ming: "I hope your Majesty will show mercy and make an early decision to save my concubine, mother and son from danger."
