Chapter 188 Beilin Palace
Chapter 188 Beilin Palace
Deep within the majestic and magnificent Beilin Imperial Palace, lies a tranquil and luxurious chamber. This is the home of Yun Mohan and his beloved wife, Xing Xuanli. Deep in the night, the flickering candlelight casts their figures on the wall, like a beautiful painting.
Xing Xuanli was wearing a lavender silk dress, with a graceful figure. She sat gently on the edge of the bed, her beautiful eyes gazing at her husband Yun Mohan beside her, and asked softly: "Husband, what do you think of the Beilin royal family we are in? And that Jimo Yuqing..." Having said this, Xing Xuanli paused slightly, as if she was choosing her words.
Yun Mohan frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and slowly said: "The Beilin royal family, on the surface, seems to be in great glory, but in fact, there are undercurrents, various forces are intertwined, and the struggle for power never stops. As for Jimo Yuqing, this person is a bit mysterious. I heard that he is talented, scheming, and quite influential in the court. But I don't have much contact with him, and the details need further observation." After that, Yun Mohan gently held Xing Xuanli's hand and looked at her tenderly.
Yun Mohan gently extended his hand, gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "If you really want to know more about everything about Beilin Kingdom, you can ask the little princess of Beilin - Jimo Qingzhi.
When Xing Xuanli mentioned Jimo Qingzhi, a trace of emotion crossed her beautiful face. She raised her head slightly and looked into the distance, whispering softly, "I wonder if Sister Qingzhi still remembers me after we parted at the state banquet last time. The scene at that time is still vivid in my mind. The state banquet was brightly lit, with singing and dancing, and Sister Qingzhi was as dazzling as the brightest star in the night sky. I still can't forget her stunning beauty and elegant manners. But time has passed quickly, and we haven't had any contact since that parting. I wonder how she is doing now? Is everything going well for her?"
Yun Mohan gently reached out his hand and gently smoothed the slightly messy hair around her ears. His movements were gentle and delicate, as if he was afraid to hurt her. Then, his lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile, and he whispered softly, "Don't overthink it, my dear. The day is over. Now it's time to rest and relax." His deep, magnetic voice was like a breeze that brushed through her heart, bringing a touch of warmth and comfort.
Xing Xuanli nodded and was about to lie down to rest when the Phantom Spirit Pearl suddenly glowed. With a gentle wave of her hand, two tiny figures materialized from the Phantom Spirit Pearl. Little Kexin asked Xing Xuanli, "Mom, when will you and Daddy be back? I miss you so much I can't eat or drink."
Xing Xuanli smiled gently and soothed, "Baby, Mommy and Daddy will be back soon. Now you have to be obedient and listen to your uncle, okay?"
Xiao Kexin nodded vigorously, her eyes gleaming with longing and reluctance for her parents. Yun Mohan also whispered softly, "Xiao Kexin, when Daddy and Mommy finish their business and come back, I'll definitely bring you lots of fun and delicious things."
Then Xing Xuanli said to Xiao Muhan on the other side of the image: "Xiao Muhan, listen to your uncle and take good care of your sister, okay?"
Little Mu Han nodded obediently and replied, "Don't worry, Mom, I will take good care of my sister. Dad and Mom, please come back soon."
Xing Xuanli smiled slightly and said, "Mother and father will be back soon!"
Xiao Muhan asked with concern: "Has Mom's condition improved?" Then, Xiaomu said to Yun Mohan with a serious face: "Daddy, take good care of Mom and don't let her overwork. Got it?"
Yun Mohan smiled and assured, "As you say, my dear son, it's getting late, you should get some rest. Good night."
Xiao Kexin waved her hand gently, "Daddy, Mommy, good night."
After the two little babies fell into a deep sleep, a happy smile bloomed on Xing Xuanli's face. She waved her hand gently, and the phantom spirit bead gradually dimmed.
After Yun Mohan carefully made her bed, he asked, "Li'er, do you want to take a shower before resting?"
Xing Xuanli shook her head slightly and declined politely, "Han, that's not necessary. We are now in someone else's territory, so it's not appropriate to make too many requests. I will use my water spirit power to cleanse the dirt from my body later."
Yun Mohan nodded slightly, his eyes gently falling on Xing Xuanli, and he said softly: "Okay, I'll do as you say. But I'm sorry to have wronged you."
Xing Xuanli smiled gently, her eyes full of tenderness, "It's okay, we are husband and wife, there is no need to complain. As for you, you have been busy today and you should rest early."
Yun Mohan nodded, his gaze turning back to the sleeping children. A warm feeling welled up in his heart. He whispered, "Li'er, it's great to have you by my side."
Xing Xuanli reached out and held Yun Mohan's hand, interlocking their fingers, a determined light flashing in her eyes, "Han, no matter what the road ahead holds, I will fight alongside you and never give up."
Yun Mohan looked at her deeply, his eyes full of love and determination, "Yes, I am the same."
The two smiled at each other, as if all their fatigue and difficulties had vanished at that moment. Then, they each lay down, closed their eyes, and fell asleep.
The next morning, all the palace servants in the Beilin Palace were busy. Upon seeing Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli, they greeted them respectfully, calling them Young Master Yun and Madam Yun. Since Jimo Yuqing had explained to them yesterday, they knew that these two were distinguished guests from Nanyuan.
Xing Xuanli nodded slightly in response.
At this time, Jimo Yuqing came to visit and asked, "Prince Regent, Princess Regent, was your accommodation yesterday comfortable?"
Yun Mohan replied, "Everything is fine, thank you for your concern, Seventh Prince.
Jimo Yuqing waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be so polite, Prince Regent. You two can just call me Yuqing."
Yun Mohan said calmly, "Yuqing, Jimo Yuqing, the banquet is about to begin. Let's go over. This is the welcoming banquet that the emperor is hosting for you two."
Xing Xuanli smiled and said, "Your Majesty is too polite."
Jimo Yuqing responded modestly, "No, no." The three of them chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the main hall.
The moment Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli entered the hall, all the Beilin officials took notice. One official whispered to his colleague, "This is the renowned regent of Nanyuan State. He's truly young and promising."
The Lord of Beilin State smiled and greeted Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli: "Please take a seat, Regent King and Regent Princess."
Yun Mohan nodded slightly and responded, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xing Xuanli bowed lightly and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Xing Xuanli and Yun Mohan found a place to sit down.
