”That's right, Sister Rong'er is beautiful, has a good personality and is talented. The Emperor will definitely like her, so she is always favored, so we had the Dragonseal before her.” The Emperor had not summoned her and Zhang Ye for nearly two months, and had only come to see the Empress once. They had only considered the Emperor to be busy, but they had not expected that Rong'er not only had the good fortune of being favored by the Emperor, but also had a dragon heir.
”Ruo Lan …” Gai Rong'er really didn't know what to say. During this month, the Emperor had only pampered her and she was the one who repeatedly nagged at him. She didn't know what to say, so she could only repeat, ”Ruo Lan, it's not … But... I was just lucky. ”
”Little sister Rong'er, why are you being modest?” Zhang Leyan said, ”Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Sister Ruo Lan and I are here to congratulate Sister Rong. It's almost time for dinner, so we'll be going back first. We can't disturb little sister Rong'er's rest.
Rong'er had been familiar with a hundred books since she was young, but she had never felt that her words were as poor as they were now. Even though her words were full of thorns, she couldn't find any words to refute them. Rong'er could only helplessly smile wryly. Looking at Yin Ruo Lan's expression, he didn't feel well in his heart either.
After Yin Ruo Lan and Zhang Ruoqi left, Xiaoqing puzzledly asked, ”Master, why do I feel so uncomfortable listening to this agreement?” At last, he no longer needed to be a water charmer. He felt exceptionally happy that Rong'er was able to bring her to her side to accompany Xiaoqing.
Rong'er smiled, but didn't reply. Xiaoqing continued, ”Ignore them. You're favored now, so they're jealous.”
After dinner, the imperial household sent a decree, the emperor turned over Guai Rong'er's cards in the evening, and in the evening he took Guai Rong'er to the Temple of Peace. Gai Rong'er's heart was filled with mixed feelings. The Emperor doted on her. As a woman, she was naturally happy, but she knew that other women would be unhappy. The empress's words would always echo in her ears.
Xuan Ye looked tenderly at Gai Rong'er. ”Rong'er, I'm really happy. This year, I'm going to govern personally, and now that you have my child, when the child is born, I'll already be the real Emperor.”
”I wonder if Rong'er will be able to give birth to a prince for the emperor.” Rong'er lowered his head and said shyly.
”No matter if it's a prince or a princess, I like them all. As long as it's Rong'er who gave birth to me, it's all my treasures.” Xuan Ye gently embraced Rong'er. forward. His heart … Li Jun said in a low voice, ”Rong'er, I know that the title I'm giving you is too low, but I can't break the rules set by this palace. You're from a noble background, so you have to start with the lowest title …”
”Your Majesty …” Rong'er interrupted Xuan Ye. ”Rong'er doesn't care about titles, he really doesn't care. Rong'er doesn't need the sole favor of the emperor, and as long as the emperor has a son of honor in his heart, Rong'er will be satisfied. Rong'er said that there are too many fish that need water, so the fish won't be able to survive without water.
”Rong'er, you're really nice. Rong'er, thank you. I really thank you.” Xuan Ye mumbled.
”Your majesty, Rong'er didn't do anything, how can I thank him?” Gaylen smiled and snuggled into Xuan Ye's arms.
Xuan Ye didn't reply, only tightly holding Rong'er in his arms.
Even though the palace was filled with coal, the temperature of the air was still low, but Xuan Ye felt very warm. Ever since he was young, he had not been by her mother's side, and after he ascended the throne, he had a lot of opportunities to see her mother. On his young shoulders, he knew that he yearned for warmth, truly longed for it. Although his grandmother doted on him, it was mostly for the sake of her tutelage, and to a certain extent, she loved him even more because of the pressure he felt. Only after meeting Rong'er did he have a feeling that he had never felt before, that he was both happy and warm, so he thanked Rong'er for her presence, thanked her for the feeling she gave him.
