On the first night of Shi Qingzhou's departure, Long Xiaoyuan stayed in his bedroom.
Perhaps the place was wrong, or the bed was wrong. In short, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
He barely managed to fall asleep in the second half of the night.
Naturally, he arrived late at the morning assembly. However, he only arrived late.
On the second, third, and fourth night after Shi Qingzhou left, he still couldn't fall asleep. It was still the second half of the night when he finally fell asleep. He kept feeling that something was missing from his side, so it was hard for him to fall asleep.
However, after four days, he seemed to have gotten used to it.
On the fifth day, Long Xiaoyuan fell asleep in the middle of the night. However, he woke up too early and woke up before dawn.
Six days later …
Long Xiaoyuan seemed to get used to it. However, when there was no one around, he would talk to them instinctively, as if Shi Qingzhou was beside him.
However, when the words left his mouth and there was no response, he suddenly realized that that person was no longer there.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Shi Qingshan's army set off, reaching the border after sixteen days.
From this, one could see how vast the scope of the map was.
Since the arrival of Shi Qingshan and Shi Qingzhou, they had won a battle, and now the victory report was presented to Long Xiaoyuan.
It was clearly mentioned in the victory report that Shi Qingzhou had personally led the troops to solve the problem of the barbarian forward encirclement. In addition, he had also beheaded two of the enemy's generals. The morale of their side was greatly encouraged.
Long Xiaoyuan sat inside the Imperial study, his finger slowly sliding across the three words "Shi Qingzhou"...
Empress Shi Qingzhou was truly worthy of his reputation.
After a long while, Long Xiaoyuan let out a long sigh. He felt a little upset at the bottom of his heart.
The battlefield was indeed the most suitable place for that person.
When he first arrived, he personally came to the battlefield as the Empress, obtaining great victory by slaying two enemy generals.
Shi Qingzhou was really powerful …
That was the only place that could make his queen truly happy, right?
And this imperial palace, this cold imperial palace with people imprisoned within it … It was like a tiger that was about to devour a human …
It was already afternoon by the time he finished dealing with the things in the Imperial study.
Long Xiaoyuan thought about it and decided to check on the little guy.
The little guy was still living in Kunning Palace. Although Long Xiaoyuan had been staying in the Monarch's own bedroom for the past few days, he would come over to see the child everyday and play with the child.
The child had been in good spirits for four months, and now he could crawl.
The weather was also hot right now, so Long Xiaoyuan saw children climbing on blankets while wearing a single shirt.
The child was also very close to him and would giggle whenever he got close.
Today was the same. In the past, Long Xiaoyuan had just woken up from his nap and now, he was drinking goat's milk.
Although a child could crawl, this crawl was different from an average child's seven or eight steps crawl. After all, it hadn't been eight months yet, so he couldn't crawl as fast as that. He could only curl up his short legs and then use one hand to prop himself up like he was crawling.
Fortunately, he was currently sleeping on a small crib. If he were to sleep on a large bed, he might be able to fall off the bed at night.
When the little guy saw Long Xiaoyuan walk over, he chuckled and even his eyes seemed to light up a little.
Long Xiaoyuan picked up the little guy. "Little thing, you're thinking of royal father now?"
Of course, the little guy couldn't speak, but it didn't stop him from giggling and even kissed Long Xiaoyuan's face.
"You can curry favor with royal father at such a small amount?"
Long Xiaoyuan also kissed the little guy's cheek with a smile. The little kid danced and played with his hair.
Long Xiaoyuan pointed at the little guy's nose and his eyes darkened a little. "But unfortunately, you're not here …"
Thinking about Shi Qingzhou again, Long Xiaoyuan felt depressed and sighed secretly in his heart.
The little guy seemed to feel Long Xiaoyuan's depressed mood, his little hand pulled Long Xiaoyuan's hair painfully.
Long Xiaoyuan snapped back to reality. royal father, you can go out and bask in the sun. "
The child chuckled as if he understood.
Then, Long Xiaoyuan carried the child and walked outside.
Long Xiaoyuan leisurely walked towards the imperial garden. He wasn't in a hurry anyway, he was just strolling leisurely.
When they finally arrived at the imperial garden, Long Xiaoyuan found a pavilion and sat down with the little guy in his arms. The wet nurse and the others also followed behind.
Children are very interested in colorful things, the eyes are always staring at it.
Long Xiaoyuan picked a peony from the imperial garden for him to play with.
The bright red peony flower was very beautiful. The child's eyes were fixed on it as he extended his small hands in an attempt to grab it.
Long Xiaoyuan plucked a petal and stuck it to the little guy's lips teasingly.
The little guy was a little hesitant at first, but under Long Xiaoyuan's teasing, it stuck out its tongue and wrapped the petal in it.
Long Xiaoyuan was shocked! "Drink, baby, you can't eat this."
The little guy naturally didn't understand, but the flower petal was also not tasty and didn't have any flavor. Thus, he was able to spit it out with his tongue still sticking out.
Long Xiaoyuan couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, a loud "Imperial Consort Shan has arrived!" The smile on Long Xiaoyuan's face stiffened …
