Ambitious Regent x Fragile Little Emperor
quickly withdrew, saying, " ...no, I didn't mean that." 。He pretended not to be so embarrassed, quickly lay down, and said to the black-haired boy: “ .. I'm going to sleep" 。Michelle couldn't help bu...Ning Shu saw him staring at her, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. Listening to these demands, he was momentarily speechless.
I couldn't help but say, "Then isn't Miss Shen what the Prince Regent has in mind"
Hē Lián Yǔ's eyes, dark and heavy, stared at him. With a sneer, he said, "I haven't seen her feet, so how would I know if they are beautiful or ugly"
Ning Shu was speechless.
He thought Helan Yu was a bit too frivolous, but he didn't say it on the surface.
A woman's feet are not something to be casually spoken about.
Seeming to see through his thoughts, Helian Yu spoke in a low voice, "Your Majesty doesn't know the hardships at the border. Many soldiers in the camp haven't seen a woman all year."
The man’s tall frame carried a hint of pressure, but his expression remained calm. “Although I hold the title of Regent King, I am nothing more than a warrior. Naturally, I want to marry a beautiful and alluring woman. My thoughts >>>
Is there anything wrong
Ning Shu couldn't help but glance at the person.
I see that Helian Yu is also staring at him, his handsome face with sharp edges, but his eyes are dark and deep.
To utter these words, yet feel nothing at all.
Ning Shu felt that the Prince Regent was teasing her. She couldn't help but say with a hint of embarrassment, "I truly want to choose a wife for you. I have no other intentions."
He Lian Yu sank his voice and said: "It'd be great if the Emperor truly thought that way."
He couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and he turned away.
Helian Yu drank the cup of tea in one gulp, and before leaving, he said: "Your Majesty, I think your feet are quite good-looking."
Ning Shu was taken aback.
I couldn't help but glance over, a little annoyed.
He knew this wouldn't work.
Ning Shu couldn't help but sit down and think carefully, what else could she do to make Helian Yu willingly work for her.
And Helian Yu returned to the mansion, first practicing a set of punches in the courtyard, then shooting arrows.
"Your Highness, I heard that the Emperor bestowed a marriage upon you today."
For years Liu Qing, who had been by his side, asked.
Helian Yu aimed the rake and shot an arrow. In the center, it left a mark.
Liu Qing saw that the prince did not speak, and then said: "Your Highness, you haven't asked for any women in these years, it's time to get married."
Helian Yu drew his arrow and said in a low voice, "This king isn't desperately in need of a woman."
Liu Qing said: “But this manor, it always needs a mistress, doesn't it”
Helen Yu didn't speak, she strode directly into the room.
He dreamt of the little emperor both days.
The other person had red lips and white teeth, lying beneath him, panting with exertion. Their wet eyes looked up at him.
She lifted her smooth, round buttocks, and his rough hands squeezed them, leaving a red mark.
Helian Yu's dreams were filled with nothing but this, and the little emperor's feet.
He still remembers the feeling, which was very memorable to him.
How could a man's feet be so white and tender
Upon thinking about this, the little emperor had actually bestowed a marriage upon himself. A surge of anger welled up within Helian Yu's heart.
He narrowed his dark eyes, deep in thought.
......
The Empress Dowager also knew about Ning Shu's failed betrothal to Helian Yu, her face was not very good-looking, but she didn't want to say more about the other party.
When it comes to Ning Shu's affairs...
"Ning'er, you are of age now. It is time for you to marry," the Empress Dowager said.
Ning Shu couldn't help but be stunned.
Upon thinking this, as his body remained unmarried, he couldn't help but speak up: "Mother Empress, I'm not in a hurry. I want to spend more years with you."
The Empress Dowager said: "I want you to marry some concubines and have a prince as soon as possible. Then my heart will be at peace."
Since the regent's return, her anxieties have multiplied.
Over the past few years, the Emperor has refrained from selecting a new consort due to his period of mourning. Now that he has passed the first year, it is indeed time for him to take some women into the palace. Moreover, the Emperor's health has always been delicate, and the Empress Dowager also has her own concerns.
She was now thinking about how many princes the emperor could give birth to, just in case something happened.
Ning Shu still wanted to delay, but she saw the Empress Dowager's face was very ugly.
I had to swallow my words.
He would never get entangled with those women. He couldn't help but think, after these women entered the palace, he would treat them well, and then release them from the palace later.
Ning Shu felt that the Empress Dowager would never allow her to remain unmarried.
The Empress Dowager saw that he was following her lead and her face wasn't as displeased. With a hint of a smile, she said, "I think Xiuer is a good girl. Your Majesty, why not marry her and make her your empress"
Zhao Xiuer is related to the Empress Dowager by blood, making her a niece.
This niece of hers, she's grown up watching him, if she were to choose a queen, she would choose someone she knows well. There is no one better than family.
The Empress Dowager, holding a handkerchief, said: "Your Majesty, don't you remember When you were a child, you used to play with Xiu'er together. Xiu'er even said she wanted to marry you."
Ning Shu remained silent.
He forgot this was ancient times, where marriages between families were common.
He didn't quite understand, but seeing the Empress Dowager's determination, he had no choice but to agree to have them brought into the palace first.
Zhao Xiu'er entered the palace in just one day.
Ning Shu looked at the girl in front of him, who was about his age.
The girl looked at him, her cheeks slightly flushed.
The Empress Dowager was very pleased and said, "Xiu'er, didn't you often say when you were a child that you wanted to marry your cousin when you grew up"
Zhao Xiuer shyly said, "Auntie..."
Ning Shu was a little uncomfortable, he didn't want to marry Zhao Xiuer, but the empress dowager's intention was to have her be the queen.
The Empress Dowager passed away soon after, leaving the two of them alone.
Ning Shu didn't know how to get along with girls, let alone did he want to marry Zhao Xiuer. Along the way, he had hardly said a word to anyone.
But Zhao Xiuer kept following behind: "Brother..."
The Empress Dowager looked down at the sobbing girl and couldn't help but say, "Alright, stop crying."
Zhao Xiuer cried until her eyes were swollen: "Aunt, does my cousin not want to marry me"
She was born into a privileged family, it wasn't that she had deep feelings for her cousin. It was about face, there were so many people in the capital who thought she would be the Empress, if she hadn't become one, wouldn't she have made those people laugh at her
Zhao Xiuer thought that her cousin had always ignored her, and she felt even more wronged.
The Empress Dowager was also somewhat bothered by her crying and waved her hand, saying: "What are you afraid of This position is yours when I said it's yours, and no one can take it away."
Zhao Xiu'er's face looked a little better, but she still couldn't help but say, "Auntie, what if my cousin doesn't want to marry me What if he marries someone else..."
The Empress Dowager was also a little anxious.
She thought resentfully, how could that bastard not have died on the border and instead return to the capital with military merit
She thought of the emperor's frail body, falling ill every few days. She wondered how long he could hold on, and if anything were to happen to him, without an heir, wouldn't this empire fall into someone else's hands
A flash of ruthlessness crossed the empress's eyes.
She looked down at the young girl and beckoned her up.
Zhaoxiu'er walked to the Empress Dowager's side, and the Empress Dowager whispered something in her ear. Her beautiful eyes widened involuntarily: "Auntie...this..."
"That's not quite right..."
The Empress Dowager glanced at her, her eyes cold. "If you want to sit in this position, do as I say. If not, there are plenty of others who want it."
Zhao Xiuer's face turned pale.
Shaked his handkerchief.
Of course she wanted to sit in that position, thinking of her cousin's attitude towards her.
Zhao Xiuer's heart also felt a little uneasy.
She was considered one of the most beautiful women in Beijing, but her cousin didn't even look at her.
.....
"Uncle."
The girl's smiling face was right in front of her.
Ning Shudao: "I am going to the study."
He had been following the Empress Dowager's orders these past few days, spending time with Zhao Xiu'er. The young woman kept trying to get closer to him, but Ning Shu didn't want to marry her at all.
Whenever he thought about Zhao Xiuer being related to him by blood, he would furrow his brow.
Even if Ning Shu were to marry, Zhao Xiuer would never be on his list.
Ancient people didn't care, but he did.
He could treat Zhao Xiuer like a sister, but he couldn't treat her like a wife.
Zhao Xiuer looked at the young man, also a little unhappy. Her eyes rolled around, and she said coquettishly: "Cousin brother, aunt has let us cultivate our feelings, you like this aunt will not be happy."
Her tone was innocent and cheerful, but her words were not so pleasant.
Zhao Xiuer did it on purpose. She knew her cousin wouldn't dare disobey his aunt's words, so when she said that, her cousin would definitely listen.
As expected.
The boy pursed his lips but did not get up and leave.
Zhao Xiuer summoned a maidservant and asked her to bring up another pot of tea.
When I brought the tea, I looked towards the pond and said, "Brother, look how clear the water is in the pond. The lotuses are about to bloom too. They'll definitely be beautiful when they do."
Ning Shu followed her gaze.
Zhao Xiuer saw the young man staring at the pond, so she took out a bag of powder and poured it into a teacup, then poured hot water over it.
She was very nervous inside, and when she had finished everything, her expression couldn't help but be a little flustered.
After all, it's the first time doing these things.
When Ning Shu turned back, he saw the young girl looking a little uncomfortable, but he didn't think much of it.
Zhao Xiuer handed over the tea and said, "Cousin, I have admired you since childhood. I know you don't like your aunt's arrangements, but Xiuer will definitely be a good empress."
Ning Shu took the tea and couldn't help but say, "But I don't like you."
He said it very plainly: "I only see you as a younger sister."
Zhao Xiu'er's face wasn't looking too good, but she still smiled and said, "Cousin, have some tea first. Later, Xiu'er will go with you to see Aunt. I heard that Aunt was ill last night."
Ning Shu drank two sips of tea and, hearing this, couldn't help but look over: "Mother fell ill"
Zhao Xiuer saw the boy drink the thing down, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed. "Mr. Qi should be back later, but he told me, Mr. Ning's room is upstairs, just follow me."Then she settled the cat and, with the young man following her, went upstairs."Just leave Mr. Ning's luggage...
