Yuanyuan's Chapter:

The first person Yuanyuan saw when she opened her eyes again was the Empress Dowager. She knew it was the Empress Dowager because she had seen her before. Her memory wasn't bad, and even though she later became somewhat withdrawn, it didn't affect her ability to learn.

Wasn't she dead? She died along with her mother. How could she still be alive?

Yuanyuan saw Aunt Liantao again. Aunt Liantao looked so young and healthy.

Has she returned to the stage of her birth?

Someone slapped Yuanyuan on the bottom, and Yuanyuan immediately burst into tears.

But her crying didn't elicit scolding; instead, it was met with laughter and cheers.

She was placed beside her mother, and she saw her mother. Her mother hadn't changed much, or rather, she had. The worry was gone from her mother's brow.

What's going on?

Little Yuanyuan didn't understand what was happening. She was a little sleepy, but she didn't want to leave her mother at all. The ground was so cold and uncomfortable; she wanted to stay in her mother's arms.

But since she was only a newborn, she was easily sleepy and fell asleep.

Her mother disappeared after only a short time with her, and she cried loudly, hoping to attract her mother's attention with her cries.

She met her maternal grandmother, who was so gentle and beautiful. Her grandmother told her that her mother had gone to find her father.

Isn't her father at the Duke of Cheng's mansion? She doesn't like her father at all; he's not a good father.

She harbored such feelings, her heart filled with resentment.

But as time went on, Yuanyuan realized something. She had returned to the time of her birth, and this time her father was not Xue Huai'an, but His Highness Prince Chen.

She really liked Prince Chen; she felt a sense of closeness just by looking at him.

It turns out that her biological father is His Highness Prince Chen.

It seems pretty good.

She didn't know exactly what had happened, but her maternal grandparents were doing well, her parents were very loving, she had a lovely little uncle, and many beautiful aunts. She really liked them.

She also has a new name, nicknamed "Yuanyuan," and formally named Yu Xingyue. She likes them both very much, and hopes that all of this is not a dream.

Mother is so busy, I rarely saw her when I was little. When Yuanyuan misses her, she is very well-behaved. She knows that Mother is very happy in this life, and she wants to be obedient too.

She was a little withdrawn when she was first born, but with the love and care from those around her, she gradually became as cheerful as she was at the beginning.

She is Princess Chenxi, the most beloved princess of her imperial uncle, the jewel of her family, and the star and moon.

...

Later, her mother became pregnant again, and she was a little worried that she would fall out of favor. So she threw a tantrum for a few days and refused to go to school. Her uncle was very troubled by this and could only come with his wife to help her study.

She learns everything very quickly, and her uncle, the newly appointed top scholar, loves to have her read to him. She doesn't dislike reading, but... but what if her mother has younger siblings? Will she not love her anymore?

She didn't know how her aunt discovered her little scheme; her aunt told her that it was impossible.

She was skeptical.

Nine months later, twins were born, which made Yuanyuan dislike them even more. Two boys, they were bound to be naughty.

Yuanyuan avoids her younger brother whenever she can't see him.

But after seeing it, I felt it was amazing.

She actually has younger brothers! She has two younger brothers!

Well then... well, I guess I'll just have to accept it reluctantly.

As time went by, Yuanyuan realized she had been overthinking things. Her parents still loved her, and everyone around her still loved her the most. It was her two younger brothers who seemed a bit neglected.

She was the one who received the most "favoritism," and even her two younger brothers treated her extremely well, wishing they could offer her all the good things in the world.

My mother always says that she suffered too much in the past.

Yuanyuan knew she was referring to the time in her past life when she was bullied by those people. She felt very wronged, but now her mother treats her very well, and the people around her also treat her very well.

Her mother told her that her younger brother was an accident, but he was still her family and would love her unconditionally. If her brother didn't love her or bullied her, her mother would discipline them.

Yuanyuan believed it and was very happy.

It all feels like a dream.

If it's a dream... could we make the dream a little longer?

[End of Yuanyuan's Chapter]

To briefly discuss the relationship between the Empress Dowager and the late Emperor, their feelings weren't entirely pure. Both of them harbored a degree of mutual exploitation. It was a complex relationship tinged with both affection and manipulation, yet it also formed a unique emotional bond.
