The fact that Shen Miao woke up came as a shock to the entire palace.
When everyone thought that this sleeping beauty would never wake up again, she woke up on her own.
When the two of them returned to the palace, everyone who saw them were shocked.
Shen Xin and his wife came out with Shen Qiu. Seeing that Shen Miao was standing in front of them unscathed, Luo Xueyan immediately hugged Shen Miao and cried. Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were stunned for a long time. Although they did not externalize their emotions like Luo Xueyan, their eyes still turned red.
Luo Tan clapped her hands and touched Shen Miao’s face. She said, “Are you real? Am I seeing things? Gao Yang, pinch me and see if I’m dreaming.”
Gao Yang was not around, so they invited Gao Zhan over.
After Gao Zhan came, he took Shen Miao’s pulse. He clicked his tongue and said, “Her Majesty’s pulse is stable. She’s fine.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Not long after Xie Jingxing ascended the throne, everyone in the Shen family arrived in the Daliang Dynasty. When they found out that Shen Miao was in a deep sleep, they couldn’t accept it. They insisted on bringing Shen Miao around the world to look for experts to treat her. They thought that it was impossible for Xie Jingxing to let a person who was in a deep sleep be the empress. Even if she was the empress, he might still take in other women, so they had to take Shen Miao away.
However, Xie Jingxing protested. He even knelt down and begged Shen Xin not to take Shen Miao away. In the end, he used the Black Feather Army to threaten Shen Xin and almost resorted to arms.
Shen Xin had no choice but to give in, but he was afraid that someone would harm Shen Miao when she was vulnerable. He handed the Shen army and the Luo army to Luo Ling to manage while he and his family moved to the palace to protect Shen Miao closely.
This was actually a little against the palace rule, but Xie Jingxing didn’t mind. It was good to have some people to talk to Shen Miao. Over the past half a year,
Shen Xin and his family had seen with their own eyes that Xie Jingxing treated Shen Miao no differently from before, so they gradually felt relieved.
Shen Miao had mixed feelings. She did not expect that upon her waking up, she would be united with her family and everyone was fine. This didn’t even dare to dream of this in the past.
“Sister-in-law.” Ji Yushu said, “Now that you’re awake, those court officials can finally shut up. In the past half a year, the officials have been nagging Third Brother.”
Xie Jingxing glanced at him. “Shut up.”
“If you are done, go back.” Xie Jingxing looked at everyone coldly and said, “It’s getting late. Don’t disturb my empress’s rest.”
He emphasized “my empress”.
Seeing this, Shen Qiu rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight with Xie Jingxing. In the past half a year, the two of them had often fought behind the scenes. Although they said that they were sparring, they were actually venting their anger on each other. Shen Qiu was angry that Shen Miao fell unconscious because of Xie Jingxing. If she didn’t follow Xie Jingxing back then, she would still be fine. Xie Jingxing was angry that Shen Qiu was a busybody. Why should outsiders interfere in the matters between him and his wife?
Now that as soon as Shen Miao woke up, Xie Jingxing could wait to have her all to himself, Shen Qiu was unhappy.
Luo Xueyan said, “That’s right. Jiaojiao just woke up and will inevitably feel dizzy after sleeping for so long. Let her rest. Anyway, there’s plenty of time to catch up..”
