"uh-huh."
Ye Jingtan responded lazily and said with a smile, "I came to the Kingdom of Darui this time, and I haven't even seen my son yet. I came to you first."
The emperor's heart was moved. "Is that so? My status has finally surpassed that of my son?"
Ye Jingtan said, "I was kidding."
In fact, she went to Prince Jing's Mansion first and found that her son was not there. Lan Zhi happened to be out with her daughter and was also not there. Ye Jingtan learned from the guards that her son was in the palace, so she came over. Unexpectedly, she came at an unfortunate time. Jun Weihe had just left and she entered the palace right after him. The mother and son took different routes and did not meet.
The emperor said: "Jingtan, Weihe gave me a jade seal..."
Ye Jingtan said: "Well, I saw it just now. You can use it. It's just a small item, not worth mentioning."
Emperor: “…” This jade seal is of high quality, but in her eyes it is just a small object?
Ye Jingtan asked, "Did anything special happen during the time I was away?"
The emperor replied, "Yes, our son has married."
"What?!" Ye Jingtan was stunned, suspecting that she had heard wrongly. There is no time in cultivation, and sometimes a retreat can last for five to ten years. She had not been back for more than a year, so how come her son got married?
Ye Jingtan's face suddenly turned ugly. She did not object to her son getting married, but she would obviously go back to Dayui Country once or two or three times every one or two years. Even if her son had a girl he liked and both decided to be together, there was no need to be so anxious. What would happen if he waited for a year?
The lifespan of the Qingyuan realm is 500 years, and the lifespan of the Chengyuan realm is 1,000 years. Are you not willing to wait even for a mere year?
"Okay, very good. My son has grown up and has become independent. He doesn't even take me, his mother, seriously..." Ye Jingtan narrowed her eyes dangerously, and she also lost her good impression of her future daughter-in-law. Her son has always been very sensible and would respect her opinions. She would also respect her son's choices and not interfere too much in his life. Now that her son is getting married, he has bypassed her. Doesn't he want to recognize her as his mother anymore?
Ye Jingtan asked, "Whose daughter did my son marry? Where are they now?"
The emperor saw that Ye Jingtan was unhappy, and quickly explained: "After the marriage, my daughter-in-law gave birth a month or two prematurely..."
"Premature birth?" Ye Jingtan was no fool. When he heard the emperor specifically mention the word "premature birth," he immediately understood what was going on. "Could it be that they're getting married because of pregnancy..."
"I don't know, I think it should be."
"Yeah." Ye Jingtan's mood suddenly improved a lot. She was quite open-minded in this regard and would not interfere in her son's emotional issues. She smiled and said, "Then I will go back to visit my son and daughter-in-law now. It's all my fault as a mother. I didn't come back for so long and missed my child's wedding night. I should come back more often in the future."
The emperor echoed, "Yes, you should come back more often. Not only does the child miss you, I also..."
"You want it too? We're an old married couple, what do you want from me?"
Emperor: "..." But you've only been back a few times, and each time you've been back it's been very short. As the saying goes, a short absence is better than a new marriage, but we've been separated for years...
When Ye Jingtan lost her memory, apart from her appearance, there was no spiritual power in her body. She was just an ordinary person. However, the emperor fell in love with her. After that, the emperor never took another concubine. He dismissed many concubines for her, leaving only a few. Those who were left behind had already become pregnant and gave birth to royal heirs before Ye Jingtan appeared. It would not be appropriate to let them go, so they were kept in the palace.
Later, after Ye Jingtan gave birth to a child and regained her memory, she did not kill the emperor because of his kindness to her, but faked her own death to escape.
Later, the emperor would occasionally look through the names of the remaining concubines in the palace.
After all, he is an emperor and has physical needs. It is impossible for him to remain a virgin for the sake of a "white moonlight" who is away all year round. Moreover, these concubines have been pregnant for ten months and gave birth to his children. He cannot forget the old ones when he has new ones. This is a responsibility. As an emperor, he must protect his women. If he had met Ye Jingtan earlier, he would not touch other women in his life for the sake of love, but the fact is that Ye Jingtan came later.
"Jingtan, will you come tonight..." asked the emperor.
"No, I... seem to have fallen in love with someone else. I found a little wolf cub in the demon tribe. The little wolf cub is very obedient and cute in front of me, but has a bad temper in front of others. It only allows me to pet it. I plan to raise it for hundreds of years. I feel that if it grows into a handsome young man in the future, it will definitely be even more adorable."
The emperor felt jealous, but he had so many children with other people, so there was no reason for Ye Jingtan to have only him. He said, "But it will take hundreds of years for that little wolf cub to transform into a human form. During these hundreds of years, can you come and see me occasionally..."
Ye Jingtan: "..." Actually, she was just joking. She was raising the little wolf cub as a pet. She wanted to see the emperor jealous. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not blame her. Instead, he was a little humble. This made Ye Jingtan feel a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to say something, she heard the emperor say, "Jingtan, Weihe is going to Xuanhuang Kingdom... If he leaves, will you come to see me in the future?"
"What is he going to do in Xuanhuang Country?" Ye Jingtan asked casually. She basically let her son do what he wanted. For her, as long as her son was still alive, it was fine. As for whether her son would grow up as a bad boy... that didn't matter. Because different species had different definitions of what it meant for a child to "grow up as a bad boy". For humans, a son's behavior of being rebellious, betraying his teachers and ancestors, telling lies, and being treacherous could be considered as growing up as a bad boy. But for the demons... the strong were respected, and having bad character in their descendants was considered an "advantage" and not a bad boy at all. Some demon parents hoped that their children would be strong, brave, and selfish. On the contrary, kind and helpful descendants were considered to have grown up as a bad boy.
