Chapter 1281: I Want You to Witness That Moment
Bai Zhi’er paused, lifting her watery eyes to look at him."Why are you holding me?"
"I feel you’re uncomfortable, the road to the Emperor’s bedroom is not short, so I’ll hold you, you’ll be more comfortable."
With that, Feng Fuce lowered his eyes, saying, "Lean against my chest, if it’s cold, pull the collar over yourself."
His domineering tenderness made Bai Zhi’er unable to resist letting out a chuckle.
She naturally stretched out her hand to wrap around his neck, her head resting on his chest.
Fine snow fluttered down, settling on their umbrella, making a crackling noise.
Bai Zhi’er suddenly felt immensely at ease.
She couldn’t help but say, "Brother Fu Ce, you will definitely come on the day of the Sealing God Ceremony, right?"
"The reason I can ascend the Heavenly Dao is greatly thanks to your efforts, so I hope you witness that moment."
Feng Fuce’s thin lips curved into a gentle smile, "Of course, I’ll go."
Even if almost half of the Heavenly Court are his enemies, he does not fear.
As long as Bai Zhi’er hopes he is there, then no matter where it is, he will attend.
Upon arriving at the bedroom, Bai Zhi’er descended from his embrace.
As she walked to the doorway, she heard retching sounds coming from inside.
Eunuch Quan Xi sighed, "Emperor, take your time to vomit."
"Someone, brew another bowl of sobering soup."
Bai Zhi’er pushed the door open and entered with Feng Fuce.
She found that Feng Fuce had indeed made careful arrangements beforehand.
Two Imperial Physicians were waiting in the outer hall, just in case the Emperor experienced any discomfort from drinking.
Quan Xi led four eunuchs and four palace Servants to attend in the inner hall.
Upon seeing Bai Zhi’er, they hurriedly greeted her.
"No need for formality, how is father?" Bai Zhi’er lifted her skirt and hurried over.
Bai Xilie lay over the edge of the bed, having just vomited.
He was placed back on the dragon bed by two little eunuchs, Bai Xilie was in a deep sleep, mumbling continuously—
"Jing Jia... don’t you want me anymore..."
Quan Xi could only pretend not to hear, speaking to Bai Zhi’er, "The Emperor has just vomited three times, the sobering soup he drank earlier was all thrown up. However, the Imperial Physicians have checked, and the Emperor is not seriously unwell."
"It’s just that he drank too much, it’s my fault, today I failed to stop the Emperor."
Bai Zhi’er sat at the edge of the bed, reaching out to feel her father’s pulse.
She casually said to Quan Xi, "It’s not your fault, father is always busy with affairs of state, how much stress and sorrow are in his heart, if drinking can bring him brief happiness, it’s worth it."
Fortunately, the pulse was fine.
Father had indeed merely drunk too much.
"Jing Jia... sob... Jing Jia..." Bai Xilie turned over, hugging his quilt, burying his head into it, like an aggrieved young boy.
Bai Zhi’er let out a gentle sigh.
If mother knew, she would be sad as well.
The traitors in the Heavenly Court have yet to be eradicated, so naturally, the couple cannot meet.
Bai Zhi’er asked Quan Xi to bring a clean towel, she carefully helped her father clean his face.
Not only that, she quietly transferred some spiritual power to him.
This could alleviate Bai Xilie’s drunkenness, making him feel less uncomfortable upon waking the next day and have a good dream.
An hour later, Bai Xilie finally slept soundly and stopped vomiting.
Only then did Bai Zhi’er prepare to leave.
"Eunuch Quan Xi, there’s no need to keep so many people here tonight, just arrange for the palace attendant to take turns standing guard normally, don’t force him to drink the sobering soup, let father have a good sleep."
The Princess has spoken, Eunuch Quan Xi, naturally with hands clasped and a bow, said, "Yes."
After that, Bai Zhi’er and Feng Fuce left the bedroom.
