Transmigrated to become a maid in the household of the Fourth Prince Hongli, Su Yushan trembled. She realized that when Hongli later ascended the throne as Emperor, she was highly likely to become ...
"I wasn't laughing at you. I just think sometimes your thoughts are even more delicate than mine." Turning over, Su Yushan lay on her side facing him, her bright, starlight-filled eyes gazing into his dark pupils, truthfully expressing her feelings.
"Actually, you're overthinking it. I don't see you that way. I like you, and of course I hope you're only good to me. Although you can't belong to me alone, I still hope that I'm the most special one in your heart."
Therefore, I will not force you to treat the Fujin (wife) well, nor will I encourage you to neglect her. Whatever your attitude towards her, I will respect your decision.
With her understanding, Hongli was relieved and stopped worrying about the matter. "As you wished, you are indeed the most special and most important person I have ever met in my life!"
Recalling history, Su Yushan lowered her beautiful eyes and sighed softly, "Life is still long! You will meet many more and better people in the future."
Hongli didn't care. "What do I care about other people's good or bad deeds? My heart is small, and it has already been occupied by you. Of all the beauties in the world, I only love your face."
Sweet words are often clichéd, but they easily touch the heart. Su Yushan's lips unconsciously curved into a smile as she nestled in his arms and playfully scolded him:
"You're trying to comfort me in the middle of the night! It's very late, go to sleep! Otherwise you won't be able to get up tomorrow morning."
It was indeed too late, so Hongli stopped teasing her and held her as they drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, Hongli went to the palace for court. When he returned, it was nearly 9:00 AM. There were people waiting at the gate of Lanzhao Courtyard to invite him over, saying that the midwife had already begun delivering the baby.
As soon as Hongli arrived at Lanzhao Courtyard, he heard a mournful cry coming from inside.
The door was tightly closed. The maid said that the nanny had instructed him not to come in, and he had no intention of going in anyway. He just stood by the window and said a few words.
Hongli is finally back! Hearing his voice, Yuying in the room finally felt a little relieved. Covered in sweat, she gritted her teeth and endured the pain, following the midwife's advice to push hard when the contractions came...
Half an hour later, the sound of crying finally came from inside the house!
