Chapter 125 Ending
Fuyao Palace was deserted and silent, with only the chirping of birds on the branches. A joyful voice filled the silent air, and Linglong could hardly hide her excitement: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess is back."
Concubine Zheng stared at the withering flowers in a daze.
Upon closer inspection, one or two leaves had turned yellow and curled listlessly. Concubine Zheng weakly plucked off the yellowed leaves and smiled bitterly, "What are you talking about? How could Yu'er come back?"
How could Yu'er be willing to go back to her?
"It's true, Madam, the eldest princess has really returned. It was the Emperor's order, and I heard it was the eldest princess who wanted to come back on her own initiative. She is in the side hall."
As if time had stopped at this moment, Concubine Zheng rushed to the side hall.
The eldest princess was a little shy because she hadn't seen Concubine Zheng for a long time. She called out softly, "Mother."
"Yu'er." Concubine Zheng slowly walked up to the eldest princess, squatted down, and tears fell to the ground one by one. "Yu'er, thank you for being willing to return to your mother's side."
"Mother was wrong, Mother knows it. I'm sorry, Yu'er." Concubine Zheng hugged Yu'er and cried bitterly. Guilt and self-blame seemed to circle around in her heart.
"Mother, don't cry." A small hand gently wiped her face.
Concubine Zheng cried even harder, thinking to herself: She and Linglong were both wrong. They used to say, "A princess is just a princess, the icing on the cake. A prince is a lifesaver." Actually, that's not the case. Both the prince and the princess are "a lifesaver."
…
In June, the sun shines brightly, the trees are lush and green, the flowers are in full bloom, the grass is verdant... it's like a long scroll of red flowers and lush leaves stretching between heaven and earth.
Wen Wanyu, who was already seven months pregnant, became increasingly lazy. She lazily leaned on the chaise longue and enjoyed her leisure time.
A cherry was brought to her lips. Wen Wanyu bit it and opened her eyes dazedly. Her mother was looking at her with a reproachful expression.
"Wanwan, you can't be so afraid of getting tired. You need to walk more. You're going to give birth in a month or two."
Wen Wanyu said coquettishly: "Mom, I'm tired!"
He Ruoyan tapped her forehead and said, "I think you should have been named Lanlan when you were born."
Wen Wanyu nodded happily, "The two babies in Wanwan's belly might as well be named Lanlan and Chouchou."
"Do you think the Emperor agrees?"
"I agree. He said I'll give the children's nicknames to them."
Her mother helplessly blocked her mouth with a cherry and said, "The other one might as well be called Chao Chao."
Wen Wanyu smiled with her eyes curved. It was lazy and noisy, but it was really nice to hear. She had just turned seven months pregnant when her mother couldn't wait to pack her bags and resolutely "abandoned" her father and eldest brother to come to the palace to accompany her while she gave birth.
At the beginning, my mother was still afraid and respectful of the emperor, but after a few days, the emperor kept calling her mother-in-law and son-in-law, and finally the sense of distance became less, and even a few more wrinkles appeared on my mother's face.
After giving birth, she would have to avoid anything oily, salty, or spicy for at least six months. Wen Wanyu planned to eat everything she wanted before giving birth.
She prepared a 'whole lamb banquet' and invited several close friends.
The curtain of night fell quietly, and under the starry sky, Shuyi, Huifei and Jin Zhaoyi arrived at the banquet on time.
The few of them did not hesitate to take the initiative and take care of Wen Wanyu.
With a roar, the fireworks shot up into the sky, exploding with dazzling sparks. The fireworks bloomed in the air, overflowing with brilliance. Several people looked up at the sky, captivated by the beauty of the fireworks.
Cheng Shuyi poked Wen Wanyu's arm, and Wen Wanyu looked over in confusion.
Cheng Shuyi glanced ahead and jokingly said, "Go find him! He's almost become a wife-waiting stone over there."
Wen Wanyu followed her gaze and found that someone was secretly giving her a surprise.
His eyes were filled with stars, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he was looking straight at her.
Walk slowly towards him. To his side.
Xie Junyao hugged her and whispered in her ear: "This is a belated fireworks feast that blooms just for you."
Wen Wanyu leaned in his arms, inexplicably wanting to cry, and choked: "It's not too late at all."
The fireworks burst into layers of colors, decorating the dark night sky like a poem and a picture.
