Four years later, at the General's Estate.
Under the swing, a girl in green was carefully wiping the swing's seat. She had a petite figure and an ordinary appearance, but she exuded a spiritual aura. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, she was still radiant without makeup.
From afar, a white-robed youth slowly walked over. Feng Ling stood up happily and went up to greet him." Young Master, you're here."”
Although the young man was only fourteen or fifteen years old, he had a tall and straight figure. His skin was very fair, and his face was extremely delicate. His starry eyes were even more delicate than most women.
The young man's face was covered in sweat." I just finished practicing with General and Father, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect you to be here again."”Zhi Song wiped his sweat and said to Feng Ling.
"This servant also wants to share Young Master's worries. Young Master comes here every day after school to wipe the swing. Practicing martial arts is very hard, so let this servant do this small thing for you. Young Master should rest more.”Feng Ling lowered his head, his face already red beyond words.
"Thank you for your hard work. I want to stay here alone for a while.”Zhi Song said lightly.
" Young Master…" Feng Ling raised his head and saw Zhi Song's sad side profile. It was as if he was looking at that night four years ago, when a young man said with extreme sadness," I will definitely wait. One year, two years, three years, five years, ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, I will wait." I will definitely wait for Yunchu to return to my side.”
It had been four years, but the young master was still as persistent as ever. Feng Ling didn't say anything else and quietly retreated, leaving Zhi Song standing quietly under the swing. "Yunchu, it's been four years. Is everything fine in the palace?”
Luan Feng Palace.
"Empress, Madam Chen. Princess and Miss Yunchu have arrived." the beautiful plum blossoms have been passed on to him.
At this moment, two fairy-like little figures entered the hall hand in hand.
"Your son pays his respects to Imperial Mother and Chen Furen.”The one who spoke was Princess Han Zhen. She was wearing a soft pink dress embroidered with butterflies spreading their wings. Although she was only twelve years old, she still revealed the beauty that a girl should have.
" My daughter pays her respects to the Imperial Noble Consort. Mother…" Yun Chu, who was wearing a light yellow dress, ran to Qianwan and leaned her small head on Qianwan's knee." Mother hasn't come to see Yun Chu for three days. Yun Chu misses you so much."”After all, he was a child who had just turned ten years old. He still liked to act coquettishly when he saw his mother.
Qianwan caressed Yun Chu's head lovingly." Your Sister Qingzhu is going to give her wedding ceremony. Mother is busy preparing for it. For a girl, a wedding ceremony is an adult. It's very important to a girl. Mother has neglected you. It is mother's fault. Mother will definitely enter the palace to see you every day in the future.”
"Sister Qingzhu is already an adult. That's great. Yunchu also wants to bow.”Yun Chutian said honestly.
"Silly Yunchu." An Zhen hopped over to Yun Chu's side." A girl can only perform the ritual when she's sixteen. I only have four years left. Yun Chu still has to wait for another six years.”
"We still have to wait that long?" Yun Chu pouted in disappointment.
Everyone laughed.
" Cough cough…" Wen Miaoran clutched her chest, looking tired.
"Imperial Mother, you're coughing again." An Zhen stopped smiling and walked to her mother's side, looking at her worriedly.
"It's fine." Wen Miaoran forced a smile and said to Yan Mei,""Yanmei, bring Princess and Yunchu to the side hall to rest. Today, you can cook in the small kitchen. Place the dishes in the Heart-seeping Pavilion in the Imperial Garden. BenGong also wants to go out for a walk. I have something to discuss with Mrs. Chen. You can leave first.”
"This servant will obey." Yan Mei said.
Hearing this, An Zhen and Qianwan bowed and left with Yanmei.
After everyone left, Qianwan said,""Niangniang, Qianwan saw that you looked tired. Did you take your medicine on time every day? Why are you coughing so badly?"
"It's an old problem. I've long been indifferent to life and death, but I still can't let go of Tianyao and An Zhen, especially Tianyao. His Majesty has just appointed him as the Crown Prince. I'm really afraid that when I die, Tianyao will have no one to rely on.”He coughed a few more times.
"Your Majesty is overthinking. The most important thing now is to nurse your body back to health and see His Highness the Crown Prince get married and have children. Don't always think about unhappy things. Worry can harm the body.”Qianwan comforted him.
"I know all of this. Qian Wan, do you still remember what you promised BenGong?" Miao Ran smiled bitterly.”
"May I know what the Empress is talking about?" Qianwan said respectfully.
"If one day Bengong is no longer around, you must help Bengong take good care of the Crown Prince. Don't let anyone hurt him, at least keep the Crown Prince alive.”Wen Miaoran looked at Qianwan seriously.
Qianwan replied seriously,""Qianwan promised the Empress that if such a day really came, Qianwan would swear to protect the Crown Prince.”
After Miao Ran heard this, she revealed a rare smile, but then she became sad again." BenGong has not seen the Crown Prince for more than half a month. The Crown Prince has General Chen to teach him riding and archery every day. After school, he is immediately taken to the Empress to teach etiquette. BenGong really misses Yao 'er. Fortunately, you and His Majesty often come to visit me. Otherwise, I would really have died of depression.”
" The Crown Prince is still the Empress's son," Qianwan comforted." Even if I can't see him every day, I still miss him." Yuanchen told me that the Crown Prince is intelligent and learns quickly. He even said that he would personally hunt a few snow foxes for the Empress to make a fur coat. Such filial piety, the Empress should also be gratified.”
Wen Miaoran smiled gratefully." That's good. Qianwan, you and your wife have done so much for us. I really can't repay you. One day, bengong will return your family's freedom and allow your family to reunite and return to the desert to live a free life.”
"Qianwan thanks the Empress.”Qianwan smiled subtly.
"Come, let's go to the side hall. I heard that Hanzhen can already compose a complete song. Let's go and take a look.”After that, he led Qianwan to the side hall.
