Chapter 158 Nothing Can Compare to the Real Her
Empress Dowager Jiang gazed at her tall and handsome son and smiled faintly after a while. "How could I ever take her away? If her heart is devoted to you, it wouldn't matter if you were at the ends of the earth. If she doesn't have you in her heart, you've only trapped her in vain. Go, she's gone. Hao'er, this time, you should let me hold my little grandson."
Lu Haozhi was very happy and bowed to the Queen Mother, "Don't worry, mother. I will definitely make your wish come true this time!"
After saying this, he turned around and walked out in two steps.
Empress Dowager Jiang looked at his back, rubbed her temples, smiled slightly and shook her head.
Zang Xiu came in from outside and told the maid to clear the dishes. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I just saw the Emperor running out. It seemed that he had encountered something joyful. Seeing the Emperor so happy, I am happy too."
Empress Dowager Jiang laughed and said, "You have watched him grow up, and your attitude towards the emperor is almost the same as mine."
Zang Xiu smiled without saying anything. She had no children in her life, and deep down she really treated Lu Haozhi as her own child.
"I hope this time, they can reconcile and never have another quarrel. If there's a next time, I don't know if I'll still be around to mediate between them."
Zang Xiu heard the Queen Mother's ominous words and hurriedly said, "The Queen Mother is celebrating her 1000th birthday, how can you say such depressing words?"
"These auspicious words are fine for those confused people, but I am not someone who can't see things clearly." Empress Dowager Jiang said nonchalantly, "I just hope that Yan'er can give birth to a grandson soon, and then I will be satisfied."
Zang Xiu listened and smiled, "Don't worry, Empress Dowager. I've seen from private observation that the Imperial Concubine is a blessed person. After this experience, the relationship between the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine will only grow stronger. Empress Dowager, just wait to hold your grandchildren. I'm afraid that by then, there will be too many grandchildren to hold.
Empress Dowager Jiang smiled and nodded slightly, then a hint of melancholy appeared on her face. "If only the late emperor could have been half as good as the emperor..."
Zang Xiu remained silent for a long while before she softly said, "Empress Dowager, although I dare not speak rashly, I observed from the sidelines that although the late emperor favored Yang, he still valued you, Empress Dowager, the most in his heart."
Empress Dowager Jiang was quite open-minded and immediately put her thoughts aside. She just smiled and said, "It's all in the past, so let's not talk about it. I just hope that they don't repeat the same mistakes. After all, being born into the royal family, it's not easy to find a close friend."
After Meng Yan left Shou'an Academy, she went straight back to Chunze Zhai.
After entering the courtyard, she heard that Bai Yuxin had just taken medicine, her high fever had subsided, and she was now sleeping soundly. She felt a little relieved and returned to her bedroom.
Doukou was nowhere to be found, so the palace maid was called over to ask, and only then did she learn that the princess had played with several young ladies of similar age at the banquet all day, and her back was drenched in sweat, so the wet nurse took her away to take a bath.
Meng Yan waved away the palace maids, walked out to the corridor alone, and looked out into the distance from the railing.
The breeze caressed her, and her mood was like the lake downstairs, with ripples appearing.
When she gave the sachet away, she no longer resented Lu Haozhi, and she wasn't even angry anymore.
She just... didn't know how to face him.
Those past times when they were in love and in love with each other were too far away. After being reborn, she had been trying every possible way to stay away from him, and she had long since put away the feelings she once had.
Meng Yan knew in her heart that as a concubine, it was her duty to serve the emperor in bed and bear children for him. Now that she had decided to let go of the grudge, this was only a matter of time, but she still felt a little... embarrassed.
It's ridiculous to think about it. No matter in the past life or this life, she has already cuddled with him countless times, but now she is shy!
She gently patted her hot cheeks and exhaled evenly.
Whatever, it’s definitely not possible in these two days.
Suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped around her slender waist from behind, and his broad chest pressed against her, drowning her in the scent of ambergris mixed with a mature man's.
Meng Yan was slightly startled, and when she turned around, she met a pair of smiling eyes.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you send someone to tell me that I was missed?"
Is this person born in the year of the cat? There is no sound when he walks.
"I don't want them to disturb me."
Lu Haozhi stared at the face he had been thinking about day and night, and his strong desire was eager to burst out. He tightened his arms, hugged this delicate body tightly in his arms, and gently sniffed her sweetness.
He had dreamed of her several times, and in his dreams she was still as charming and passionate as she was back then.
He pursued her fiercely, and she responded to him eagerly. However, every time the morning light dimmed, this fleeting dream left him feeling empty.
Nothing could compare to this; truly holding her in his arms would satisfy him more.
"emperor……"
Embarrassed by the burning gaze of his, Meng Yan couldn't help but turn her head slightly to avoid him a little.
Lu Haozhi's gaze brought back some memories that had long been buried deep in her heart...
"Your Majesty, please let me go. I will go and pour tea for you..."
Before he could finish his words, he blocked the rest of his speech.
Lu Haozhi lowered his head and kissed her lips. He didn't want to hear what she said for the time being, he just wanted to pour out his thoughts.
Meng Yan's body stiffened at first, but then softened. She gently placed her arms on his shoulders and then wrapped them around his neck.
She didn't want to run away anymore, or maybe she should be braver.
After all, this life is not the previous life.
Noticing her timid response, Lu Haozhi paused slightly, then hugged her tighter in his arms, wrapping his arms around her soft waist, so that their chests were closely pressed together, feeling each other's heartbeats.
He teased her lips and tongue, entwining them closely, and her increasingly sweet breathing was in his ears...
It was unknown how long it had been before Lu Haozhi reluctantly raised his head from her lips, but he still held her tightly, with no intention of letting go.
"Yan'er, I missed you so much in the Imperial City. Come back to me. No matter in the past life or this life, I only want you. You are the only queen in my heart."
Meng Yan's eyes were like water, her face was flushed, and she was breathing softly.
She brushed away the loose hair on her temples, looked directly into Lu Haozhi's eyes, and smiled softly, "Your Majesty, before I left, I told you that I would think it over carefully. Now, I have figured it out."
Lu Haozhi's heart suddenly rose to his chest. Could it be that the sachet she gave him didn't mean what he thought it meant?
No, he won't let her escape again!
Lu Haozhi made up his mind and said, "Yan'er, I don't care what you think. From today on, I will favor you every day until you give birth to a prince!" As he said that, he leaned over, picked up Meng Yan horizontally, and strode towards the bed.
