However, ever since Ah Li became pregnant, Liu Xiu ignored both praise and reprimands.
When Ah Li gave birth to a daughter, the Emperor bestowed many gifts upon her and even had a jade ruyi specially delivered to her.
When Liu Xiu found out, he only told Ah Li to put it away, and he hugged and kissed the child again and again.
Time flies, and more than a decade has passed.
As the emperor grew old, he came to Liu Xiu's Prince's Mansion and saw that Liu Xiu and Ah Li were still very much in love, with many children following them and calling out to him, "Grandpa Emperor."
Ahri is blessed; she had six children, three boys and three girls, all born in pairs.
The original owner of this body had grown up by this time. She was by the emperor's side, and when she looked at Ah Li, she felt as if she had been transported to another world.
Su Luo died of illness two years ago. Because she was preoccupied with many things and had a lot on her mind, a simple cold brought her down.
The original owner was well-behaved and sensible. When she was still a baby, she showed her face to the emperor a few times and was taken by the emperor's side.
The original owner of this body has now become a princess named Liu Ping'an.
However, she didn't dare to get too close to Ah Li. For some reason, she was a little afraid of the way Ah Li looked at her, as if she knew her secret.
She had met Xu Yi before, and now, looking at him again, he seemed like nothing special.
The Prince Jing's Mansion still stands, but it's not as grand as it used to be.
Not long after, the emperor bestowed a marriage upon the original owner of the body, to a newly appointed top scholar.
The original owner was not dissatisfied; she had looked into it and knew that this new top scholar was a good person.
The two were very happy after their marriage.
Not long after the original owner got married, the emperor abdicated and passed the throne to Liu Xiu's son.
Originally, the emperor intended to pass the throne to Liu Xiu, but when Liu Xiu learned of this news, he was completely taken aback. Did he really want to sit on that throne?
When Liu Xiu thought of his father's life, he burst into tears in front of the emperor and said that he did not want to be emperor.
When the emperor saw Liu Xiu like this, he helplessly propped his head up. His son had never really thought of becoming an emperor.
The emperor then opted for a less desirable option and passed the throne to Liu Xiu's eldest son, Liu Tong.
That child was also brought into the palace for education, and in terms of both the way of being a ruler and his temperament, he was very much in line with an emperor.
Unlike his father Liu Xiu, who only wanted to stay with Ah Li for his entire life.
Liu Xiu let out a heavy sigh of relief and said to the emperor, "Father, please don't breathe so heavily when you speak in the future. You scared me to death just now."
The emperor glared at Liu Xiu, who continued, "My children are all grown up, and I want to travel around with Ali. Besides, being an emperor means having too many things beyond one's control, and I don't want that."
After Liu Xiu finished speaking, the emperor looked at a painting hanging on the wall, which depicted Liu Xiu's mother.
The emperor rolled his eyes and chased Liu Xiu away, saying, "Get out of here, you're annoyed just looking at me!"
Liu Xiu then said, "Then I shall take my leave."
After Liu Tong became emperor, Liu Xiu took Ali on trips to enjoy the scenery and would occasionally return to see his child.
That year, I seemed to hear my heartbeat, cheering and rejoicing for me, overjoyed that I had met you. —Liu Xiu
