And then, the soft moonlight shone down.
Hua Changxuan sat down in the pavilion.
Before long, a fiery red light shone through the collar.
Hua Changxuan lowered his eyes and glanced at it, his delicate brows furrowing.
It's unclear what he was thinking, but after a while, he reached into his collar and took out the Blood Spirit Orb...
Just then, a woman walked over from not far away. "Your Majesty, I am a little sleepy. May we return to the palace now?"
As soon as the newcomer appeared, Hua Changxuan's expression turned cold, and he quickly put the Blood Spirit Pearl back into his abdomen.
He simply replied with a faint, "Mm."

On the other side, when Rong Chang returned to Yunhe Palace, she saw Hua Changge sitting on the low couch where she usually sat as soon as she entered. His expression was cold and stern.
He didn't say a word as Rong Shang walked past him.
When Rong Shang returned after finishing her water, she stood in front of him and carefully examined him for several seconds before realizing that Hua Changge was thinking about something.
"What, are you really planning to hand over the throne to Hua Changxuan and give up being the emperor?"
The incident happened suddenly.
Actually, Rong Shang only mentioned the child a few times that day and made a few playful remarks.
Did that alone change his mind?
Isn't this a bit hasty?
With a slight flicker in her eyes, Rong Shang walked over and sat directly on his lap.
Perhaps out of habit, as soon as she sat down, Hua Changge naturally put his arm around her waist.
"Then do you want me to continue being the emperor of the empire?"
If he were the emperor, then she would be the imperial concubine.
He spoils her so much now, she might become the empress in the future.
Because she hadn't asked clearly beforehand, Hua Changge suddenly felt a little insecure.
Maybe what he's thinking isn't what she wants.
"I just want to know why?" With her arms wrapped around his neck, Rong Shang stared at him with sharp eyes.
"Just to take me sightseeing?"
I don't believe it; this statement has absolutely no credibility.
"I was just joking that night," she said with a casual smile. "I'm not pregnant yet, and I don't even know if it's a boy or a girl."
“So…” Hua Changge paused, “you don’t want to leave the palace?”
Indeed, in the palace she could have whatever she wanted, and there were people to serve her anytime, anywhere.
After only a moment's thought, Rong Shang's face turned cold. "Am I that kind of person?"
(Thinking to myself: Yes, when it's hot, there are ice basins in the palace; when it's cold, there are heaters in the palace.)
Haha, just kidding.
Seeing that she looked unwell, Hua Changge pursed his lips.
That's not what I meant.
Sigh, I don't know when he started to become so fussy and indecisive.
He buried his face in her neck, breathing out warm breath, and after a few seconds of silence, said, "I'm about to be driven crazy by the noise of the civil and military officials in the court."
"All you ever do is make me choose candidates, saying you want to treat everyone equally and that I can't just stay here."
Honestly, why do these old guys have to worry about so much for no reason!
If he could, he'd love to drag those old guys out and give them a good beating.
"Pfft." Unexpectedly, this was the reason, and Rong Shang burst out laughing.
So the issue of the child that I mentioned before was secondary; this is the main purpose?
"Just leave it alone."
Since there was nothing else, Rong Shang got up from him.
He had been fighting Hua Changxuan openly and secretly for so many years, and now he was willing to give up the throne he had already obtained just because someone asked him to participate in the imperial selection?
Sure, that's very capricious.
However, she also knew that Hua Changge's actions were not solely due to this matter.
It can only be said that a combination of factors led to his exhaustion.
