Rong-er thought to himself: ”The Emperor mentioned to me today that 'Proud Dragon Repents', which is from the 'Classic of Changes'. He said that once a dragon ascends to the ninth day, they will no longer be able to fly higher, and with the slightest flash, they will descend. Thinking about it, His Majesty has already been in power for more than ten years, but he is still able to live in peace.
She first went to the Longevity Palace to visit the Imperial Concubine Yi, which caused her face to grow much redder. Furthermore, there was another news, which was that the Imperial Concubine Yi was pregnant again, and that the Imperial Concubine Yi had made her happy to see him, all because of the child's health. In order to prevent the Imperial Concubine Yi from thinking too much, the Emperor had treated the Imperial Concubine Yi well, and in order to prevent him from thinking too much, she had sent him back to her side.
When he returned to his own palace, Rong'er had been eagerly waiting for this moment. She didn't know if the emperor missed her. After all, there were many people accompanying the emperor this time. All day long, her heart had been waiting nervously. Perhaps no matter how many years passed, no matter how old she was, she would always hope so. She missed him, really missed him.
On the first day of his return, he had passed on her to him. He had changed into a light blue forging suit and lightly tousled his hair, revealing a faint smile in the mirror. In the mirror, he could see that she was no longer younger than the other concubines, but he knew that beauty had never been her capital.
On the platform in the palace, Xuan Ye watched Rong'er walk up to the platform with a faint smile on his face. In the moonlight, Rong'er still made him feel as excited as before. There were countless beauties in the harem, but only Rong'er brought him the first impression.
”Chenqie kowtows to Your Majesty!” Rong'er smiled lightly and bowed towards Xuan Ye.
Xuan Ye lightly stepped forward, holding Rong'er's hand and said softly, ”I miss you.”
”Your Majesty …” Rong'er's eyes were actually moist …
Xuan Ye smiled lightly and pulled Rong'er into his embrace, whispering in his ear, ”Without you by my side, I feel that something is missing.”
Xuan Ye lightly released Rong'er and looked at the moon in the sky. He sighed and said, ”Rong'er, I have everything now, but I am truly afraid. I will slowly become greedy for pleasure, wasting away my political affairs like the Emperor of the previous dynasty.” Xuan Ye looked at Rong'er. ”All around me, everyone around me says: The Emperor is wise, the Emperor is brave, the Emperor has learned well …” ”A few days ago, I realized that my subjects did not mention anything when they were speaking with me about poetry. That was, 'Proud Dragon Repents', so I had discussed it with my subjects in the imperial court. I thought that I was living in peace, and needed this kind of warning, but my subjects did not even dare to say anything to me.” Xuan Ye forced a smile. ”Heh, but I will still make a mistake in the end. Rong'er, you are the only one at my side who dares to speak the truth to me. Don't be like other people, okay?” ”Just keep me in mind, okay?”
Rong'er nodded with a smile and suddenly said, ”Draconian soup spring water is more luxurious than luxurious water. It is impossible to rule by the name of a saint. Your concubines are ordered to remind you that offending a dragon is also required to follow the imperial edict!” Rong'er said with a smile, ”Your majesty, when you first brought Rong'er to Tang Quan, you had already given chenqie an order. Emperor, when you first brought Rong'er to Tang Quan, you had already given chenqie an order.
Xuan Ye laughed heartily and pulled Rong'er into his arms, saying with guilt in his voice, ”Rong'er, I remember, of course I remember, that was the happiest period of my life. I had promised to bring you to Tang Quan, but I didn't do well enough to give you a lot less time to be happy.”
”How can this be? Who would have thought that the south would start a war? The emperor values the country, so how can he only remember the love of a girl. Your majesty, Rong'er is satisfied.” Rong'er chuckled.
Rong'er, in fact, there are many things that are not my intention. There are already so many women in my palace, many of whom I can't remember their looks, much less name. This is not what I want. Xuan Ye sighed.
”Your majesty, chenqie understands. How could chenqie not understand your feelings?” Rong'er said softly.
Xuan Ye smiled with a bitter and helpless expression. ”Currently, my harem's number far exceeds that of Emperor Amma's. Outsiders will definitely think that I'm a lecherous and lecherous Emperor.”
Rong'er looked at Xuan Ye's helpless expression and smiled. ”Didn't Your Majesty say that the Emperor's imperial harem had three thousand women from the three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines?” ”Compared to them, you're still lacking a lot. You need to work even harder.”
