"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, so it is normal for the court to be busy. Besides, he has always been alone before, and he has never been in contact with other women, so naturally he doesn't know how to get along with them.
As for you, you should come to the palace more often to see me and spend more time with His Majesty, and you will naturally understand. "The Queen Mother comforted.
"Aunt is right. Weiwei knows." Nangong Wei said sensibly.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied: "That's right, you are the daughter of the Nangong family, you are of noble status, and with me here, the position of Queen naturally cannot fall into the hands of others, so you should come to the palace more often in the future."
"Yes, Weiwei will follow my aunt's order." Nangong Wei was very proud.
She is determined to win the position of queen.
Since the Regent was ignorant and rejected her, Nangong Wei would marry someone more powerful than the Regent and make the Regent regret rejecting her.
The emperor came out of the empress dowager's bedroom with an extremely ugly look on his face.
He was not stupid, so he naturally understood what the Queen Mother meant. She was so eager to match him up with Nangong Wei.
In fact, the emperor knew about the empress dowager's ambition when he was the crown prince, otherwise the late emperor would not have been so wary of the queen and even poisoned himself to suppress the Nangong family.
But now that he has become the emperor, the empress dowager can no longer hold back. However, the emperor does not like women like Nangong Wei who rely on their favor for their own good.
"Your Majesty, you seem to be in a bad mood?" asked the trusted eunuch Eunuch Fu.
"As the crown prince before, I was a pawn of my father's schemes against my mother and the Nangong family. Now that I'm the emperor, my mother can't wait to bring me and Nangong Wei together. I've become a pawn in the marriage again. It turns out that being an emperor is also beyond my control." Emperor Leng Yehan sighed.
Eunuch Fu is an old man who has served the emperor. It can be said that he has watched the emperor grow up. He has been serving the emperor alone since he was poisoned. When he heard the emperor's words at this moment, Eunuch Fu felt very distressed.
"Your Majesty, I know how you feel. Perhaps you can ask the Regent Princess about this matter," Eunuch Fu suggested.
He knew that the emperor was able to detoxify because, although Ye Xingchen was a woman, she might be favored by the regent and was definitely not an ordinary woman. Perhaps she would have a good idea.
The emperor's mouth curled up with a bitter smile: "She has married my uncle, how can I bother her with such a trivial matter."
"This is the most important event in your life, how can it be a trivial matter?" Eunuch Fu was extremely distressed.
"Forget it, I can handle it myself. If I don't agree, my mother can't do anything about it." The emperor sighed.
Eunuch Fu sighed deeply and said no more.
After Nangong Wei left the palace, she met Gu Beimo on the way back. Calculating the time, she hadn't seen him for a long time since Gu Beimo had the accident.
After not seeing each other for such a long time, Gu Beimo has lost a lot of weight, his wide black robe is a little loose, his face is still a little pale, and it seems that he has not recovered well.
After all, he didn't die when he fell from such a high altar, but he injured his leg. Now, several months have passed, and Gu Beimo still walks a little unsteadily.
At this moment, Gu Beimo was standing not far from the entrance of Nangong Mansion, looking straight at Nangong Wei.
"Why did he come here?" Nangong Wei looked disgusted.
"Miss, if you don't want to meet him, can I talk to him?" asked the maid.
"I'd better talk to him myself. We have to understand each other better." Nangong Wei said and got off the carriage.
Gu Beimo looked at the bright and beautiful girl coming towards him, feeling a little excited, and subconsciously exerted force with the hand holding the crutch.
"Weiwei." Gu Beimo called out subconsciously.
"Bei Mo, why are you here? Are you here to see me?" Nangong Wei asked.
Gu Beimo nodded: "I haven't seen you for a long time. The weather is good today, so I came out to see you."
"What's so good about me? I'm still the same as always. Since you've seen it all, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first." Nangong Wei turned around and was about to leave.
Gu Beimo frowned slightly: "Weiwei?"
Doesn't she really want to see me? In the past, every time Gu Beimo came to see her, he went directly to Nangong Mansion, and the servants in the mansion were very polite to Gu Beimo. But this time when he went to Nangong Mansion to look for someone, the servants of Nangong Mansion didn't let him in at all.
How ironic and humiliating.
That's why Gu Beimo was waiting here, he just wanted to see Nangong Wei.
Nangong Wei, who had already turned around, paused with her raised foot. She turned to look at Gu Beimo, her face full of pleading: "Beimo, please don't bother me anymore, okay?"
Hearing this, Gu Beimo was stunned and looked at Nangong Wei in disbelief: "Do you think I am pestering you?"
He has liked Nangong Wei since he was a child, and he would do anything for her, even offend the Regent.
But ever since Gu Beimo fell from the altar and was injured, Nangong Wei has never visited him once, which made Gu Beimo very sad.
But he still made excuses for Nangong Wei, maybe she was busy or delayed by something.
This wait lasted for several months, until Gu Beimo had almost recovered, he dared to stand in front of her.
I didn't expect she would say that.
Nangong Wei made Gu Beimo's already pale face even uglier, and she became impatient: "Isn't it true that you came at the right time today? I was going to make it clear to you that there has never been anything between you and me, so there won't be anything between us in the future."
"Mr. Gu, please stop pestering my young lady. My young lady is going to be the queen in the future. It's not good for anyone if you keep pestering her like this." The maid interrupted.
Gu Beimo was struck by lightning, looking at Nangong Wei in disbelief: "You like His Majesty?"
If Nangong Wei liked the Regent, Gu Beimo could understand it. After all, he saw Nangong Wei confess her love to the Regent with his own eyes at the hunting ground last time.
It was only a short time before she gave up the regent and decided to enter the palace.
Nangong Wei lost her disguise and said proudly: "Does it matter whether I like you or not? I must become the most noble woman in the world. I will trample the Regent and Ye Xingchen under my feet."
Looking at Nangong Wei, who was so ambitious, had only interests in her eyes and no emotions, and was even willing to sacrifice her life's happiness for that power, Gu Beimo felt that she was a stranger.
Is she really the Nangong Wei that I know?
"Then, I wish you get what you wish for." Gu Beimo uttered a few words with difficulty, turned and left.
He lost his balance and almost fell down. Xiao Si immediately reached out to support him: "Sir, how are you?"
"It's okay, let's go." Gu Beimo replied in a low voice, and walked away with Xiao Si's support.
Nangong Wei saw Gu Beimo about to fall and wanted to reach out to hold him, but she didn't do it in the end.
She was afraid that if she helped him, Gu Beimo would pester her again.
In fact, Nangong Wei knew from childhood that Gu Beimo liked her, and she also liked the feeling of being cared for and concerned by him, so even though she knew Gu Beimo's feelings, Nangong Wei did not refuse and enjoyed it with peace of mind.
Seeing Gu Beimo's untidy back at this moment, Nangong Wei suddenly felt empty in her heart, as if something important was lost.
This feeling is very bad.
"Miss, let's go back." said the maid.
"Let's go, he is not worthy of me at all. There will never be a chance for me and him." Nangong Wei snorted coldly and turned away.
