Chenchen stopped talking.
Lying silently in Xia Ruqing's arms.
The carriage swayed gently, and he eventually fell asleep.
It took a total of one and a half Shi Chen from the suburbs to the palace.
By the time they reached Duanning Palace, it was already dark.
The hall was brightly lit.
No need to guess, the Emperor must be there.
Sister Huang and others came out to greet them.
Xia Ruqing instructed her to carry Chenchen inside.
"He didn't eat much at noon, make him some supper!"
"Yes! I understand!"
Watching Sister Huang carry the sleeping Chenchen away, she was finally at ease and went inside.
As expected, she saw Zhao Junyao reading on the bed.
She approached and greeted him.
"Emperor!"
Zhao Junyao glanced up at her.
"You're back?"
She responded with a smile.
"Yes!"
"Come and sit!" Zhao Junyao put down the book in his hand and gestured to the seat beside him.
Xia Ruqing chuckled and moved closer.
