"Your Highness —" Yu Shishi's face was deathly pale.
"Don't call me that. I think you're dirty!" Wanyan Lie stood up, still hugging the youth and refusing to let go. "My beloved concubine, since Imperial Father has punished you with a month of closed-door meditation, you should stay in Shufang Zhai! As for Jie 'er, ben gong will have Concubine Mei take care of him for a few days. You don't need to worry about him. "
Wanyan Lie walked out of the door with the young man in his arms. Then, someone came up to lock the door.
"No, don't!" As soon as she heard that Wanyan Lie wanted someone else to raise his son, Wanyan Jie, Yu Shishi got out of bed and rushed to the door barefooted, pounding on it. "No, Your Highness, Jie 'er is my son! Don't break us up! No! "
Hearing Yu Shishi's pleading, Wanyan Hong didn't turn around, but the corner of his mouth hung a sarcastic smile, "Look after the Crown Princess!"
Wanyan Hong strode away, leaving Yu Shishi with a cruel back. Seeing him so cold and heartless, Yu Shishi clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred. Did he think she was dirty? Why doesn't he see how disgusting he is? If she had known that he was a pervert and liked men, she would not have chosen him. She would have chosen Feng Cang, that sickly fellow!
Thinking of Feng Cang, thinking of everything she had missed out on, and thinking of Murong Qiqi's ridicule towards her during the day, Yu Shishi's teeth itched with hatred. Wasn't he sick to death back then? Why is he getting better day by day now? If she had known that things would turn out like this, she would never have broken the engagement.
What should I do now? Wanyan Hong's intention was to imprison her, and he even wanted to place Wanyan Jie under Mei Ji's knees to raise. How could this be!
That was the child that she had finally given birth to after ten months of pregnancy. How could she leave it with that prostitute Mei Ji! She had spent a lot of effort to get Wanyan Hong on her bed. Even though it was just one night, she was lucky to get a man in one fell swoop. It was impossible for that slut, Mei Ji, to take advantage of her!
Moreover, Wan Yanjie was the crown prince. He was the foundation of her life in the East Palace. It was also an important bargaining chip for her to have a place in the royal family! She couldn't let Wanyan Hong take away her support. It was fine if she couldn't count on her man, but she had to protect her son!
Jinxuan Palace. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the red walls and green tiles, making them sparkle with golden light. Empress Dowager Dongfang Lan leaned against a rocking chair with a snow-white Pekingese in her arms. Beside her stood Aunt Qing, who had followed her for half a century.
"Madam Qing, you said that Murong Qiqi didn't lose out to Bao Zhu and the Mu family's girl?"
"Yes, Empress Dowager."
"Heh, heh heh …" Dongfang Lan chuckled. Murong Qiqi's eyes that were as bright as the spring sun appeared in front of her again. Who did she resemble? This feeling was so familiar.
After thinking for a long time, Dongfang Lan still couldn't figure out who Murong Qiqi's eyes resembled, so she decided to stop thinking about it and changed the topic. "Madam Qing, I did not dream of Ming Yue last night. Do you think that Ming Yue and Feng Xie have brought their child to be reincarnated? Ever since something happened to Mingyue, I've been dreaming of them every night. But last night, they didn't come. I'm not used to it … "
Looking at the Empress Dowager's white hair, Aunt Qing took a coat and draped it over her.
"My Lady, this is a good thing! Don't people say that if you dream of a family member who has passed away, it's because the family member can't bear to part with their loved ones and refuses to be reincarnated? Now that you didn't dream of the Princess and the Prince's son-in-law, perhaps they know that the Emperor is filial to you, so they're finally relieved and reincarnated? "
Dongfang Lan nodded thoughtfully at Aunt Qing's explanation.
"It's good that they're reincarnated, so that I won't have to worry about them every day. Aunt Qing, it's been so many years, but you're the only one by my side and you still call me Lady … His Majesty is filial, but he's not my biological son. Aunt Qing, after my hundred years, you should leave too! You've served me for so many years, it's time for you to think about yourself! "
"Empress Dowager, what are you saying? Aren't you chasing Aunt Qing away?"
Hearing Dongfang Lan's words, Aunt Qing immediately knelt in front of her. "My Lady saved Aunt Qing's life. Wherever my Lady is, Aunt Qing will be there! Even if my Lady is gone, Aunt Qing will go to the Imperial Mausoleum to look after my Lady! Aunt Qing won't leave! "
"Get up, get up!" Dongfang Lan pulled Aunt Qing up. "What nonsense are you saying? For my sake, you've remained unmarried your entire life. Do you want me to keep you until you die? Listen to me, if I leave, you should leave too! Don't stay in the cold Imperial Mausoleum, it's too cold there. You need to live your own life. "
"Empress Dowager —"
"Alright, it's decided then." Dongfang Lan stood up and put the pekingese on the ground. "Xue 'er, go play by yourself! Don't go too far! "
"Woof woof!" The pekingese called Xue 'er barked twice and ran out.
"Aunt Qing, do you think Murong Qiqi will win the bet with me? Why do I feel that Cang 'er is determined to marry this girl this time? Ai, it's not that I'm being unreasonable, but whenever I think of her identity, I feel like there's a thorn in my heart. It's so uncomfortable. "
"Since the Sunshine Princess has agreed, why don't you wait and see the result, Miss! If she wins, this is her and the Prince's fortune. It means that they've really been brought together by Yue Lao. In that case, you can just wait and see your great-grandson! If Miss wins, wouldn't that be even better? "
"I'm just worried that if I win, Cang 'er really won't marry. What should we do then? The Feng Family is a family of martyrs. We can't just end our family line here! "
Aunt Qing supported Dongfang Lan and smiled gently. "Miss, in the end, you're still kind-hearted and your heart aches for Prince Cang. Since this matter has already been decided, it's up to everyone's luck! Even if the Sunshine Princess loses, she won't blame you. However, don't blame this servant for speaking out of turn. If the Sunshine Princess wins, will you really let go of your past and preside over their wedding? "
Hearing Aunt Qing say this, Dongfang Lan paused and glanced at her. "Do I look like someone who doesn't have integrity? If the Beizhou Nation can really become the champion of the Four Nation Youth Competition, I will definitely hold a grand celebration for them! "
The Four Nation Youth Competition started during the Qin Dynasty. At first, it was just the various prefectures and counties of the Qin Dynasty sending outstanding people to the capital to participate in the competition. It was similar to a martial arts competition. When the Qin Dynasty was divided among the three clans, it was officially renamed to the "Four Nation Youth Competition". The East Lu Nation also participated.
