"Thank you, Yier, thank you for keeping this child." Zhao Yun's eyes were full of regret and reluctance.
"Thank you for telling me about this child's existence."
"You are the father of the child. Sooner or later you will know him."
She hadn't thought about keeping it a secret from him.
"No..." Zhao Yun shook his head. "I've never made any sacrifices for Yuan'er. I wasn't even by your side when he was born. Even if you didn't tell me about Yuan'er's existence and didn't let me get close to him, I wouldn't have any complaints."
After all, it was all his fault. From the ten months of pregnancy to the birth of the child, it was all done by Xu Lingyi alone.
Whatever she does is as it should be.
"Zhao Yun, I don't take these to heart. I've also said that I did it willingly. I'm very happy to have Yuan'er."
"You don't need to think about these things anymore. Forget me in the future and just be a good emperor."
Zhao Yun forced a bleak smile and said with difficulty, "Okay."
But he knew that he would never forget her until his death.
No one will ever be able to enter his heart again.

Although Zhao Yun was extremely reluctant, he finally returned the child to Xu Lingyi's arms.
She has already given him a lot of time, and one day in the future, she will return to the capital.
Even though it was just a short stay, Zhao Yun felt hopeful.
He was extremely grateful to God for allowing them to have a child, which also meant they had a connection.
"Yier, I will wait for you in the capital."
Zhao Yun spoke silently in his heart.
He would wait for her until she came back briefly.
I will also take good care of her grandparents for her.
Zhao Yun knew that as long as the two old people were alive, Xu Lingyi would have one more person to care about in the capital.
She will also have another chance to return to the capital.
Zhao Yun stood there for a long time, watching Xu Lingyi's carriage go farther and farther away, until it could no longer be seen and disappeared on the road out of the city.
He suddenly thought, when he left Yaowang Valley stubbornly and heartlessly that day, did Xu Lingyi feel the same as him?
For the first time, Zhao Yun understood the law of cause and effect and reincarnation.
His father mercilessly killed his mother, and many years later he also died at his hands.
He used Xu Lingyi that day and then abandoned her. Now the person who was abandoned and waiting there was himself.
You will reap what you sow.
It's a pity that he only understands this truth now, but it's too late now.
Xu Lingyi has left, and he and she will never be the same as they were in Yaowang Valley in this life.
All he will have in the future will be a long and endless wait.
"Your Majesty, you...you should return to the palace."
Eunuch Liu reminded carefully.
Your Majesty stood there from noon until dark and refused to leave for a long time.
But Miss Xu's carriage had already gone far away, and it was probably about to reach the next town.
Zhao Yun didn't say anything. Just when Eunuch Liu thought that His Majesty would stand there forever, perhaps until dawn, His Majesty spoke.
"Let's go back to the palace."
Compared to the hopelessness before, he was already content that he still had the chance to see her again in this life.
In the future, she will travel the world, saving people, and the only thing he can do for her and the child is to try his best to make the world peaceful and clear.
If Yuaner grows up in the future and wants this position.
Zhao Yun hopes that what he will leave for Yuan'er is a peaceful and prosperous world, rather than a world of devastation.

This story ends.
This is my first time writing a be, so it's a new attempt. It wasn't particularly smooth, and there were a lot of struggles in the middle. I'll stick to writing sweet stories in the future. Anyway, I'm very grateful for everyone's tolerance and understanding. π_π Thank you, my dears (＞_＜)
I'm a bit hesitant about which story to write next. Should it be about the stars, the times, or the immortal realm?
These are the ones I have never written before＞3＜
