"Do you need my help? After all, I once lived in the harem myself. Does that boy have any distinguishing features?"
Murong Jin looked at him. This emperor seemed a bit off today. Why was he so interested in her finding that child?
However, she didn't suspect anything. She thought carefully about the first time she saw the child. "I remember he seemed to be bullied by several people, and his body was lying in the mud. It was drizzling that day... But the child's face was covered in mud, so I don't know what he looked like."
Di Junlan's heart skipped a beat, suppressing his inner impulse and shock, "Is there more?"
Murong Jin smiled and said, "Your Majesty probably hasn't seen it. That child is probably the child of some palace maids. When I first entered the palace, I accidentally fell into the water, and that's how I met Consort Yixuan."
Everything matched up, but Di Junlan still felt uneasy, worried that the two of them might be conspiring to deceive him...
"I've had people search for so long, but we haven't found him. Maybe that child is no longer alive. I just wanted to see him because the jade pendant he gave me saved me several times at crucial moments."
Emperor Junlan looked at him and asked, "May I take a look at the jade pendant?"
Murong Jin looked at the depth in his eyes, took it out from her waist. It was still a little damaged, but Di Junlan recognized it. It was the one he had given to that girl, especially the one his mother had given him when he was a child.
The person he was looking for was right in front of him, but their gender had changed...
This world has become so unpredictable...
Murong Jin's lips curled slightly. Seeing Di Junlan's expression, she had a somewhat immature idea...
Looking at the marks on the jade pendant, Di Junlan could guess that it was pierced by a sharp blade. Although there were some marks, he still knew it.
He gave the jade pendant to Murong Jin, saying, "The Regent does remember our past relationship."
Murong Jin shook his head: "No, it's just that I suddenly remembered it."
Emperor Lan: "..."
I've been thinking about you for over ten years, and you just suddenly remembered me?
My heart was suddenly stabbed.
No, he could never like men! He likes Murong Jin when she dresses as a woman!
The thought of Murong Jin dressed as a woman, staring at him with icy eyes... it's exciting, but... do I even want to live?
After Murong Jin left, Di Junlan sat there pondering the problem, and then called An Kesen in.
"His Majesty."
"I ask you, if the woman you love suddenly turned into a man, would you still love her?"
An Kesen was stunned. "Huh?" What kind of weird question is this?
Di Junlan looked at his silly expression and asked, "What?!"
An Kesen immediately straightened his back seriously, "If that woman is someone I like very much, someone I cherish dearly, I don't care whether she's a woman or a man. As long as it's her, my liking for her will not change!"
Your Majesty, please don't be so rigid about gender! Otherwise, how can there be homosexual relationships between men and sworn brotherhood between women?
"Alright, I understand." He can't just stop liking her because the girl he's been longing for has suddenly become Murong Jin, can he?
At first, I just felt... there were some reactions and struggles I couldn't quite grasp...
The person he liked suddenly became someone of the same high status as him, someone he had previously even considered killing...
If Murong Jin knew that I was the boy he was looking for... wouldn't he be very disappointed?
Suddenly, he felt a little afraid that Murong Jin would show a disappointed expression towards him...
This matter is sealed off; Murong Jin absolutely cannot find out that Di Junlan is the brat he saved before!
As for the rumors that Murong Jin prefers men...
I am a man too, and I refuse to believe I can't overcome this thought...
After leaving, Ankersen scratched the back of his head; the woman he liked had suddenly turned into a man…
Why does Your Majesty ask this?
Could it be that the girl His Majesty likes has turned into a man?
His face then showed utter shock.
Oh my god, could it be that he was just joking with him?
If that's the case, isn't His Majesty currently struggling with whether or not to meet and get to know that "girl"?
If you don't like someone, why would you have been thinking about them for over a decade? If you do like someone, you've already found them, so what are you still hesitating about?
He was quite curious: how did His Majesty find that "girl"? He had arranged for everyone to search for her, but they hadn't found her. How did His Majesty find out so quickly?
...
When Murong Jin returned to the manor, he told Jin Shisan not to go looking for anyone.
Jin Shisan looked at her, "Aren't you going to look for it anymore, Master?"
Murong Jin took a sip of tea. "Hmm, I'm not looking anymore."
"yes!"
Why did Master suddenly stop looking for that man?
For some reason, Jin Shisan didn't ask; it was his master's private matter.
Murong Jin glanced at the jade pendant, and from the undisguised surprise in Di Junlan's eyes today, she knew it.
That dirty little kid has now become a high and mighty emperor.
OK.
Now that I don't need to compete with Emperor Junlan anymore, I have a reason to let go of many things.
Humans are strange creatures. If they don't know someone, they'll at least argue with them. But if they've had a good relationship with someone before, they'll develop a strange trust in that person...
Holding the jade pendant in her hand, she realized that Emperor Junlan had saved her several times, thanks to the pendant which had shielded her from a great deal of harm.
A few days later, just as Murong Jin got up, she heard her door being kicked open.
"Murong Jin!!!"
