After Jun Zhe had made enough of a ruckus, he coughed with a flushed face and continued playing chess with Linghu Lan.
Although he was young, he was taught by a famous teacher and his chess skills were not bad. He played to a standstill with Linghu Lan.
After a long pause, he silently uttered a sentence.
Don't be afraid!
"What am I afraid of?" Linghu Lan felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart, and her heart suddenly felt hot. She finally realized a fatal truth: the hesitant and ambiguous expression of the young man in front of her was the most touching, and its power to move people was almost dozens of times that of an adult.
On the importance of cultivating a husband's sexuality.
Jun Zhe blushed slightly, but pretended to be calm and said, "Don't be afraid about the matter of the Qinyang Prince's Mansion! Someone is playing tricks behind this. After I find out the truth, I will clear the Qinyang Prince's Mansion of its name."
When the word "someone" was mentioned, Jun Zhe's eyes dimmed slightly. He wasn't stupid; he could guess who was behind this.
Linghu Lan looked at her with a smile, her eyes sparkling with sweet affection. "I don't want you to become a tyrant because of me."
"Nonsense! I am a wise ruler, and you are a virtuous empress. We are both destined to be recorded in history. You are not allowed to speak nonsense again." The emperor criticized him in a serious tone.
Linghu Lan delicately picked up a black chess piece, placed it down, and captured a group of Jun Zhe's white pieces.
Jun Zhe exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly rearranged his pieces to salvage his remaining white pieces. Both of them tacitly avoided mentioning the Qinyang Prince's Mansion again.
Just as Jun Zhe was about to leave, Linghu Lan helped him straighten his clothes and said softly, "If there really is a problem with the Qinyang Prince's Mansion, Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about me. You should know that in my heart, you are the most important. I don't want you to disregard the laws and regulations for my sake. You are destined to become a wise ruler, and you shouldn't have such a stain on your body."
Jun Zhe's eyes, as black as the night sky, gleamed with starlight, as if they contained the entire world within them. In his heart, however, the world was merely the backdrop to the person before him.
He looked at Linghu Lan, his eyes filled with affection, nodded solemnly, and sighed, "With you in this life, what more could I ask for?"
The world is vast, but only your heart is home.
Linghu Lan was very pleased. She gently slipped a brocade pouch into Jun Zhe's hand and said with a smile, "Go!"
Jun Zhe accepted the brocade pouch. Although he was puzzled, he did not hesitate. He nodded and turned to leave.
Linghu Lan stood at the door and watched Jun Zhe walk away. In the darkness, his tall and straight figure could be vaguely seen.
Where the heart finds peace, there is home.
...
The next day.
Princess Qinyang arrived at Suning Palace early in the morning.
Upon seeing Linghu Lan, before even speaking, her eyes were already reddening.
Linghu Lan's heart softened. Regardless of the state of the Qinyang Prince's Mansion, the Princess Consort of Qinyang loved and raised Yue Huangyin with great care and hard work.
In the story, not long after Yue Huangyin faked her death, Princess Qinyang moved to a Buddhist temple, where she prayed daily with a solitary lamp and ancient Buddha. She died in the same year as Yue Huangyin, which shows that mother and son were of one heart, and that there was a divine will in the dark.
Linghu Lan waved her hand lightly, dismissing those around her, and bowed respectfully. "Huangyin greets Mother."
"Get up, get up!" Princess Qinyang hurriedly helped her up, glancing warily around. The Qinyang Prince's Mansion was already in danger, and she couldn't let Huangyin be implicated and get caught in a mistake. She whispered, "You are the Empress, and my mother is a subject. How can I accept your courtesy again?"
"Mother, please don't be shy. There's no one here, and Granny Lin is watching outside, so there shouldn't be any problems."
