Rebirth of Ruo Xiyan

A row of maids with delicate faces in pink clothes walked along the corridor, and the jade pendants under their earlobes shook slightly. They all lowered their heads, their expressions were numb, and their beautiful faces seemed to have lost some of their color.

Wei Xuan stepped down the steps slowly, his sleeves fluttering lightly, and the dragon claws embroidered on the sleeves seemed to have a dripping momentum, entrenched on one side.A ray of sunlight was exposed between the emerald green branches and leaves, reflecting on Wei Xuan's beautiful face, her cheeks were fair, and there was a hint of majesty between her eyebrows and eyes.

Wei Xuan stood still slowly, waiting for the maid on the side to come forward and open the door.

The emperor was sitting on a high seat in a dragon robe, with a jade crown on his head and his hair tied up high, his eyebrows and eyes were extremely handsome, his eyes were piercing, but his red lips were extremely thin but three points more beautiful than a woman's.

Although the emperor is getting older and the corners of his eyes are slightly wrinkled, his face still has a trace of heroic spirit when he was young. He rests one hand on the chair and looks down into the distance.

The queen was sitting beside the emperor. She was wearing a blue dress lined with lavender tulle, and she was a few years younger without losing her elegance.A gold hairpin pulled up her black hair, shining brightly in the sun, and long earrings hung from both sides of her snow-white neck.

The queen looked at the face of the emperor, and smiled slightly, a bit shy as before.

Wei Xuan looked at his father and queen mother in the distance, and paused slowly. If it was not for discussing important matters, they would never have summoned him in the hall. Wei Xuan counted the time, and his face sank slightly. His father discussed his marriage.

Wei Xuan clenched his fists hard, he should have thought of this a long time ago, if he waited until after his father wrote the imperial decree, everything would be unchangeable.And it is absolutely impossible for him to sit on three thousand beauties and watch the teacher stay alone in the room, no matter what, he must reject this marriage.

"Xuan'er is here." The queen looked at Wei Xuan outside the door, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.

Wei Xuan heard his mother's voice, couldn't help but think twice, then stepped into the room, bent down and knelt on the ground, "I pay my respects to my father, queen mother."

"Xuan'er, get up quickly." The emperor raised his hand to help Wei Xuan, he looked at Wei Xuan's tall figure, and the faint majesty on his face also had a hint of his old look, and nodded in satisfaction.

Wei Xuan got up and stood respectfully in front of the emperor.

"Xuan'er recuperated for a few days after sunset that day, but he still felt unwell." The emperor looked at Wei Xuan's slightly pale cheeks. He had gone to see Xuan'er before she woke up. He didn't have time due to his busy schedule, so he was relieved when he heard that Xuan'er was fine.

"Thank you for your concern, my son's body has recovered." Wei Xuan said warmly.

"A few days ago, Xuan'er studied the reading papers with the Taifu, and he never missed the morning class." The queen said softly, with a slight sense of reproach.

Wei Xuan sneered in his heart, most of his father's impression of him came from his mother's rhetoric, but if he really studied hard as his mother said, maybe the teacher wouldn't have to work hard to help him.But in this life, he has to study hard so that the teacher can spend less time thinking.

"If Ruoxuan'er feels unwell, rest for a few days until nothing serious happens." The emperor looked at Wei Xuan, he really hoped that Xuan'er could be as brave and decisive as himself, and don't be soft and overwhelmed.

"It's the father." Wei Xuan replied, maybe the queen mother sincerely hoped that he could become a generation of emperors who will be famous forever, but he is just a mediocre person, and in this life he is dedicated to the people around him.

"Xuan'er, I have discussed your marriage with the emperor." The queen said slowly, with an unusually beautiful smile on her face. The Chen family holds the most important power in the court, and all the queens of the past have come from this. She has no objection to Xuan'er Marry the woman he likes, but Xuan'er must keep Chen's status.

Wei Xuan opened his mouth to interrupt his mother's words, "I've just turned eighteen now, and I haven't made any political achievements yet. Maybe it's too early to get married." Wei Xuan looked at the emperor's face, his mother has always been strong, and he won't let him talk too much. Everything is fine if you agree.

"It's getting late. I was not yet eighteen when I married your mother, and I was just crowned prince." The emperor was quite satisfied with Wei Xuan's words. Just accumulate."

"Xiaowan is not young anymore, she is already past the age of leaving the court." The queen's face remained the same, and she knew that Xuan'er's temperament was a bit rebellious, just like the emperor back then, but the husband and wife get along together, and after a few years alright.

"My mother, my cousin is gentle, beautiful and generous. She is really a rare lover in the world, but I can't treat her wholeheartedly. I'm afraid I will fail her." Wei Xuan pretended to be a little sad. Treated him very well, even won his favor, and because he hated his mother's family, he never stepped into his cousin's palace, and he also harmed that quiet woman.

"How can there be only one empress in the harem? In the future, the draft will recruit talented people to enter the palace and spread the leaves." The emperor said emphatically, if Ruo Xuan'er only favors the princess and concubine, and does not accept the concubine to balance the right and left courtiers, the influence of foreign relatives in the future It will only get stronger.

The queen frowned, "Xiaorou has been tolerant and generous since she was a child. When she enters the palace in the future, she will take care of all the affairs of the harem and live in harmony with other concubines. Xuan'er doesn't have to worry about this." The daughter of the Chen family entered The empress of the palace must understand this point, if she obtains the honorable status, she will no longer be able to be favored by the emperor.

The queen looked at the handsome face of the emperor, and there was a hint of sadness in her eyes. For the benefit of the family, it was not a pity to endure decades of loneliness.

"Queen, a gentle woman like Xiaowan really shouldn't share my favor with other women." Wei Xuan tried his best to avoid the intentions in his heart.

"If Ruoxuan'er wants to spoil Xiaowan alone, it's fine." The queen said coldly, but she firmly believed that this was definitely not Xuan'er's sincerity. The queen looked at the emperor beside her, so she knew she had said something.

"Then what does Xuan'er want?" The queen faintly realized that Wei Xuan seemed to be trying to lure her into a trap, and she couldn't help but get a little angry on her delicate face.

"The cousin's family background is enough to marry any general and prince, and they will treat her sincerely for the rest of her life." Maybe Jing Wan will not have the dignity of a mother from now on, but at least it is much better than staying in the cold palace for many years.

"Could it be that Xuan'er wants to marry Xiaowan?" The queen grabbed the edge of the table and said sharply. She saw that Xuan'er was only a little rebuffed that day, but she didn't expect that Xuan'er's attitude would be so tough today. She saves a bit of face.

"I don't dare." Wei Xuan lowered his head slightly, now it's not his turn to point out the marriage.

The emperor looked at the firmness in Wei Xuan's eyes, not only was there no trace of anger on his face, but there was a faint smile on his face. He tried his best to speak in front of his father and queen like Xuan'er, but in the end he chose to obey.He hopes that Xuan'er can be different from him, but as an emperor, there are too many helpless things, and there are a few things that can be obeyed.

"My son is just worried that my cousin's life will be missed." Wei Xuan said respectfully, now that his resoluteness has been seen by his mother, he may not be able to act out the situation of mother's kindness and filial piety.

Wei Xuan wasn't worried about what his mother would do to him, his father only had him as his son, and he had to inherit the throne in the future.But he worried that his mother would find out his affair with the teacher, which might be detrimental to the teacher.

"Xiaowan's life was already doomed when she was born, so Xuan'er can't help but worry too much." The queen said coldly, Jing Wan is the eldest daughter and must bear all this, whether Xuan'er loves her or not, she will Must endure.

Wei Xuan looked at the silent father, only then did he realize that all of this was not up to the father himself. The marriage of the daughters of the Chen family by the emperors of all generations has long been deeply rooted, or the father was also persecuted back then.

Does he have to marry Jing Wan?Wei Xuan shook his sleeves, he didn't want to hurt his cousin again, and he didn't want to see the lonely figure of the teacher standing in the distance.

Seeing that Wei Xuan didn't retort, the queen calmed down, "Your father and I have thought about it for a long time. The third day of next lunar month is a rare and auspicious day for marriage. What do you think?"

"So fast." Wei Xuan was stunned for a moment, if counting from today, it would be less than a month, it would be impossible for him to think of other ways to refuse.

"One month is enough." The queen was afraid that something would happen, so naturally the sooner the better.

"My cousin and I haven't met a few times, and we are still a little unfamiliar. I'm afraid it's too early to get married now. Can the empress give the son a little more time?" Wei Xuan tried his best to think of an excuse, but he looked at the delicate face of the empress, There is something blank in my mind.

"How long does Xuan'er want?" The queen looked at Wei Xuan coldly. It has become a custom for successive emperors to marry women from the Chen family, so it is impossible for Xuan'er to escape.

Wei Xuan was momentarily at a loss for words, if he opened his mouth, he would have to marry his cousin, and there was no possibility of evasion.

"Xu'er don't need to be so worried. Xiaowan has loved Xuan'er ever since she saw her once many years ago, and now the mansion misses her every day." The queen looked at Wei Xuan's slightly moving lips, I vaguely guessed his words.

"Queen, Xuan'er's words are reasonable, let's give Xuan'er some time to think carefully." The emperor slightly raised his hand to signal the queen to stop talking.

The queen closed her mouth unwillingly, she bit her lower lip slightly, revealing a row of white teeth.

"My son thanked my father." Wei Xuan leaned over to salute, with gratitude in his eyes, he thought to himself, maybe his father also somewhat agreed with him.

"Xuan'er is over eighteen years old, the wedding should not be delayed too long, at the latest one month. I hope that the queen can have a good discussion with Xuan'er in the next few days." The emperor said slowly, Xuan'er's toughness was nothing more than For a time, will eventually set foot on his path.

The hope in Wei Xuan's eyes suddenly dissipated, it turned out that the father was also on the side of the mother.Wei Xuan sighed slightly, if he married another woman like in the last life and seriously hurt the teacher's heart, why would he suffer for more than a hundred years of pain.

"Father, Queen, Mother, and Queen are resigning first." Wei Xuan left slowly, now he really hopes that he was never born in the royal family, but just a little apprentice by the teacher's side, to accompany the teacher freely.

"Queen, I will never break my promise to you." The emperor looked at the queen's youthful face as before, with an unusually calm expression.

"The concubine knows." The queen smiled sweetly, as the most honorable woman in the world, that was enough.As for the emperor's favor, it was never something that the girls of the Chen family could expect.
