After returning to the palace, my Zhaoyang Palace was very peaceful, and I never went out every day.

Tuoba Hong has been busy recently due to the collapse of Wuzhou Mountain, and he has come to my Zhaoyang Palace less often.

I'm idle.

Sitting in front of the seven-stringed guqin, I gently supported it.

I remembered the first time I played it in the Valley of the Woods, the birds flew. Many years ago, Otokushi must have played songs in front of the hut, and the birds were used to hearing them, so as soon as they heard the sound of the piano, they all flew over.

I imagined that when she was playing a tune, it should have been a very beautiful picture. She has fallen at a young age, how desolate, her soul is in my body, so let's live well together!

While I was meditating, the chamberlain Zhang Xinpu stepped forward to report, "Rong Guiren, the Lin Guiren of Yaohua Palace is about to give birth, and the emperor has already sent the imperial doctor to go." ”

I was surprised, stood up, the corners of my mouth raised slightly, and said, "Follow the palace to Yaohua Palace to have a look."

Lin Jinse finally ushered in this day.

Zhang Xinpu opened the road in front, and Yinglin and Zhuyan all accompanied him.

When I walked into Yaohua Palace, I saw the slaves and maids coming and going, and Lin Jinse's cry of pain came from the inner room.

Lin Jinse's maidservant Dong'er came to me to bow respectfully. I calmly asked, "How is Lin Guiren?" ”

Dong'er looked nervous and replied, "The master hasn't given birth yet, and the imperial doctor and midwife are all inside." ”

The miserable screams came from the back room, and I was terrified to hear it, and I didn't know how painful it was to give birth.

Zhu Yan helped me sit down, and the slaves and maids of Yaohua Palace hurriedly came up with tea and snacks, but I was in no mood to eat, and it was really panicked to listen to that scream.

Only then did I realize that no one else in the Yaohua Palace came to visit except me.

In the midst of the shouting, I stayed for an hour, either sitting or standing, very uneasy, but Lin Guiren had not yet been born.

Seeing that I was nervous, Zhu Yan comforted me, "Giving birth to a child is like this, you don't have to worry." ”

She handed over the teacup, and after I took a slow sip, I just put it down when I heard the screams of the attendants, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

I hurriedly got up and bowed to Tuoba Hongfu, who had already walked into the threshold.

Tuoba Hong quickly helped me up, looked at me with a smile, and said gently, "Why did Rong'er get here, this delivery room is very noisy, I will accompany Rong'er back." ”

I looked at him suspiciously, my eyes flashed, I don't understand that he is not in a hurry? That's his eldest son, isn't he happy to get a dragon son for the first time?

Gonggong Zhou beside him was also urging, "Rong Guiren and the emperor will leave first to rest, there are old slaves watching here." ”

"But—" I dismissed.

Before I could say anything, Tuoba Hong hurriedly said, "You can't help if you stay here, it's better to go back to the dormitory and wait for news." ”

Takubahong had already taken my hand, and I had no choice but to leave with him.

However, it made me feel like the purpose of Tuoba Hong's visit was to take me away on purpose.

Does he care so much about Lin Guiren, so why do he want to spoil her? I really don't understand.

Or is it because the emperor is a person who likes the new and hates the old, because she is an old person?

I was puzzled all the way, and after entering the Zhaoyang Palace, Tuoba Hong said, "Rong'er, you think too much." ”

He said this to me out of the blue, and it seemed that he knew what I was thinking.

After sitting down, I said indifferently: "Isn't the emperor worried about Lin Guiren, she is giving birth to your prince."

Tuoba Hong smiled lightly, "If I am born, I will naturally come to report it, even if I stay there, it will not make any difference." ”

"But it can comfort Lin Guiren." I replied to him coldly.

He looked at me with a smile and said softly, "Rong'er should also give me a child, I must like it very much." ”

My eyes tightened, and I was silent.

His words were very deliberate, and they were also hinting at me.

I can't get rid of him, maybe I'm going to share a bed with me.

I laughed and laughed, and I didn't say no, and I didn't say no.

The bamboo inkstone served good refreshments, and Tuoba Hong ate and drank tea seriously, without a trace of nervous expression.

At this time, I really want to know how Lin Guiren became Tuoba Hong's concubine in the first place, and whether he liked her at that time.

But I still didn't ask, and I didn't want to ask, it was his business.

An hour later, the news finally ushered in that Lin Jinse gave birth to a prince. After the waiter reported it, I urged him, "Aren't you going to take a look?" ”

And Tuoba Hong just gave some things to Yaohua Palace on behalf of Zhou Gongbus, who had already returned, and did not mean to rush to see her.

Until dinner with me, he had no intention of leaving.

Today is a good day for Lin Jinse, and as the emperor, he should at least take a look.

I was a little displeased with what he did.

Before I finished eating, I put down my chopsticks and looked at him coldly.

"Full?" He looked up at me.

I glanced at the bamboo inkstone who was waiting, she understood my eyes, saluted me and Tuoba Hongfu, and withdrew, there was no one else in the room, so I could ask.

I said indifferently, "The emperor doesn't have Lin Guiren in his heart?" ”

When he heard this, he didn't feel smiling, and when he saw that my face was not good, he lowered his eyes before he said slowly, "Yes." ”

"However, she is already your concubine." I frowned.

Tuoba Hong smiled coldly, "That's just a pawn of the imperial grandmother." ”

I understood in an instant.

"Because of the ancestral rule of 'erecting a son to kill his mother'? I asked very seriously.

He pursed his lower lip lightly and said indifferently, "It's good that Rong'er understands." ”

"Can't really be changed?" I'm sad, Lin Jinse will really die because of this ancestral rule.

"This is the principle set by Emperor Taizu, and the Empress Dowager has no right to change it, so she wants me to have a woman at will give birth to her eldest son, so that in the future, she Feng woman will not have to die because of this ancestral rule."

He looked at me with affection in his eyes, "I didn't want to find a woman by my side at will, but when I met you, the first time I saw you, I planned to marry you, if you gave birth to the eldest son, I didn't want to see you become a pawn of the Empress Dowager." ”

I frowned, and he said that he would only agree to the Empress Dowager's opinion after seeing me.

But it should have been before I went back to Pingcheng, and I had met him before?

Seeing that I looked suspicious, Tuoba Hong chuckled, "Rong'er's memory hasn't recovered all yet, so I shouldn't remember it." ”

He picked up the glass on the table and took a sip, as if reminiscing.

He smiled faintly and said, "Last spring, I went to Dragon City for private defense, and I saw you in the temple of Dragon City and smiled, and then I followed you all the time, only to learn that you are from Gaofu. After that day, Rong'er was in my heart. ”

I blushed, but listened calmly.

He approached my side, stroked my hair, and spoke softly, "I was in a hurry, and I wanted to take you back to Pingcheng after returning to the palace, but I had some government affairs delayed, and at that time, the imperial grandmother had already intended for me to find a concubine to give birth to the emperor's eldest son. I understood what the imperial grandmother meant, and after thinking about it, I agreed, because I thought that if I took Rong'er into the palace first, if you were pregnant with the prince first, the queen mother would not let you go, so I simply picked a slave in the north palace at random. ”

I heard the sigh in his words, "I also feel that Lin Guiren has been wronged, but I don't love her at all, I only have you in my heart." ”

I was stunned, stood up, and looked at him in disbelief.

His eyes were deep, he raised his hand to caress my face, and looked at me very softly, "Rong'er, do you know that I have never loved a woman, except after meeting you." ”

I looked stunned and whispered lightly, "It was the emperor who saved the concubine in that misty forest?" ”

He smiled slightly, "Yes, that time I went back to Longcheng, I wanted to personally go to the old mansion of Gaofu to take you back to Pingcheng, but when I arrived in Longcheng, the servants of the old mansion of Gaofu told me that you were gone, back to Pingcheng, and it didn't take long." ”

I frowned again.

He continued, "I then hurried to catch up with you, but I didn't catch up all the way, and a landslide on the official road blocked the way, and I thought that Rong'er must have gone another way, and I kept looking for you until I found that there were trembling marks and tattered carriages on the mountain road—"

"At that time, I was so nervous, my heart was about to jump to my throat, I was afraid that something had happened to Rong'er, so I looked for traces until the cliff-"

He took me into his arms and hugged me tightly, but I didn't struggle, my heart seemed to melt with him.

"You know, when I see you dying in the Misty Forest, you know how sad I am."

"However, at that time, the barracks and granaries in Yangcheng were burned, so I had to put you in the summer villa of the King of Beihai and let him take care of you, so I went to deal with the incident."

He smiled sadly again in my ear, "Rong'er, do you know, the King of the North Sea later told me that you have amnesia and don't remember who you are, I am so sad, I originally planned to go to see you in the Dream Immortal Residence after dealing with the granary, but you left. ”

I was stunned, moved again by his affectionate words.

He let go of me, stared at me with a deep smile in his eyes, "Later, I met you again, I didn't expect that you would appear in front of me again, so I wanted to keep you by my side, in the Yangcheng Inn, I didn't want you to leave, let people look at you, just because I was afraid that you would leave again." ”

"Rong'er, you understand."

I was stunned to hear it, it turned out that from beginning to end, he always had me in his heart.

He kept me in Yangcheng because he had me in his heart.

"Your Majesty—" I called him softly from the bottom of my heart.

I looked at him like this until he lowered his head and kissed me, and I didn't refuse, even accepted him.

His kiss was so deep that I couldn't breathe.

I softened and moved.

The moment I was put on bed by him, I was in a state of confusion and completely obsessed.

I forgot everything, I only saw him in front of my eyes at this moment, only his affection.

He didn't hesitate to take possession of me, and I fell completely into his warm arms that night.

In the middle of the night, I suddenly woke up, looking at the man lying next to me, my heart palpitated, and I quietly shed a tear.

I don't know why I'm crying, sad or happy?

I got up quietly, looked at the king of a country who was sleeping soundly again, put on my coat, and approached the windowsill.

Pushed open the window, leaned against the window, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and was stunned.

For so long, I shuddered and smiled.

In the night, the face of the demon appeared in my mind.

I'm already the princess of Great Wei, but I still think of him from time to time.

I'm ridiculous, laughing at myself.
