Look at the three lines of words again: One, I wish my husband lives a thousand years; two, I wish I stay healthy; three, I wish we can be like the swallows on the beam, and see each other year after year.

Haha...he just knew that he was her husband!

With violently trembling hands, he folded the note and put it back at his waist. With red eyes, he wanted to run out.

"Royal brother!" As soon as he took a step, he heard Lu Yanluo's voice coming from the front.

Lu Yanluo ran up to him with a smile, and without saying a word, she took his hand and put the caterpillar into his palm.

Lu Shian was puzzled. He calmly pinched the caterpillar and flicked it away with his index finger.

"What are you doing? Why are you giving me a fake caterpillar?"

Lu Yanluo looked at the caterpillar that he had flicked away and said speechlessly, "I knew it, how could my brother be afraid of a mere caterpillar?

"Brother, let me tell you something. Your Imperial Concubine looks down on you. She just told me that you are afraid of caterpillars and asked me not to scare you with caterpillars. Isn't that funny?"

"Is... is it Qiandai who said that?" Lu Shian wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, and his eyeballs seemed to be bloodshot.

Oh, yes! When she was a child, she was often laughed at for being timid. In order to appease her, he said that being timid was no big deal. He was also timid and was afraid of even caterpillars.

But how could I be afraid of caterpillars?

How could I, who kills people without blinking an eye, be afraid of caterpillars?

That silly girl, didn't she know that he only said this to her? There was no other person in the world who knew that he was "afraid" of caterpillars except her.

"Sister Qiandai said so. Brother Emperor, what's wrong with you? You look so excited that your eyes are almost bleeding." Seeing that he was almost insane, Lu Yanluo asked in confusion.

Lu Shian took two deep breaths to ease the pain in his heart, and without bothering to answer her, he ran wildly in a certain direction.

"Hey? Brother?" Lu Yanluo stood there in confusion, "I haven't asked you why you didn't let me leave the palace."

He ran all the way to Youlan Residence, but could not see the beauty. Lu Shian could not wait to yell to the servants: "Where is the queen?"

The servants knelt on the ground and replied timidly: "Your Majesty, the queen went to the imperial garden to relax."

Lu Shian breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to look for him.

"emperor?"

As soon as he turned around, he saw Ye Qiandai appearing at the door, looking at the servants kneeling on the ground in confusion.

Seeing her appear, Lu Shian was overwhelmed with emotions. He ran over and hugged her tightly in his arms. Before he opened his mouth, he was already in tears.

God knows, he was dreaming about this moment!

Ye Qiandai was confused and patted his back in bewilderment, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Shian hugged her tightly, his voice full of deep sorrow, and he spoke after sobbing for a while, "You...you're back?"

Ye Qiandai was stunned. She could hear him crying, and also felt liquid dripping from her neck.

What happened to him? What caused him so much pain?

The servants around were also stunned by the scene, with their mouths wide open, unable to believe what they saw.

"Your Majesty..." Ye Qiandai was heartbroken to see him in such pain. She raised her hands and hugged him back, gently stroking his back to comfort him, "I'm back."

Lu Shian was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe and couldn't even open his eyes completely. His long-standing lovesickness and despair were finally released at this moment and he collapsed.

"I've been waiting for you so hard, it's really been so hard..."

"Your Majesty?" Ye Qiandai was even more confused. "Did something happen to you during the morning court session? Why are you waiting for me?"

Lu Shian didn't say anything else, but just held her arms tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to merge her into his bones and blood.

She didn't want to admit her identity, so he wouldn't expose it.

He would do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't leave, even if she wanted his life!

Ye Qiandai frowned and struggled for a moment, then said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, you hurt me."

Hearing the beauty's cry of pain, Lu Shian finally reacted and quickly let go of her. He held her shoulders, looked at her with tears in his eyes and asked, "Tell me, what was the wish you wrote on the Kongming lantern last night?"

He had clearly confirmed his guess, but he just wouldn't let go of any evidence. He really couldn't stand having his hopes shattered again.

Seeing his red and swollen eyes and face full of pain, Ye Qiandai's heart was broken. She raised her hand to wipe his tears and replied: "I wish you a thousand years, I wish I am always healthy, and I wish we can be like the swallows on the beam, and see each other every year."

Lu Shian smiled, but he couldn't stop crying even though he was smiling. He couldn't bear it anymore and hugged her again. He said to her in a hoarse voice, almost begging, "I love you. Don't ever leave me, never!"

From that day on, Lu Shi'an seemed like a madman. Except for the daily morning court sessions, he stayed with Ye Qiandai almost all the time.

When eating, sleeping, or even reviewing memorials, he had the eunuchs send them to Youlanju, and he would only work if Ye Qiandai accompanied him.

He was extremely attached to that woman, and his love for her spread throughout the country.

Rare treasures, silks, satins, delicious foods, everything that caught his eye, he would try to collect them, and then stuff them all into Youlanju, just to make that beautiful woman smile.

Some even speculated that the emperor was preparing to appoint a queen, and the candidate would of course be the foreign princess who was the most adored of all.

When the rumor spread, some people were happy and some were worried, and some people in the palace became increasingly restless.

Ye Baijiang and his family were upset and restless, so they simply left the palace and went to the imperial garden to relieve their bad mood.

Ye Yuqing was undoubtedly the most angry about Lu Shian's exclusive favor for Ye Qiandai. Her face was full of hostility, and the resentment in her eyes seemed to emanate from her bones.

"Damn it, that bitch, that vixen, what kind of magic did she use on the emperor? She made the emperor seem to be possessed by her, and he couldn't wait to stick to her all day long."

Mu Zhengrong's eyes turned red with hatred, and she echoed angrily: "That's right, I finally defeated Ye Shiqing and entered the palace. I thought I could rest assured for the rest of my life, but I never thought that Ye Qiandai would show up halfway.

"This vixen seduced the emperor so much that he lost his mind. Now rumors are spreading among the people that the emperor wants to make that vixen his empress. This is ridiculous!"

"How can that be possible?" Ye Yuqing screamed, shaking with anger, "Dad, the queen is mine, I can't let that vixen take her away, Dad, you have to find a way!"

Ye Baijiang waved his hand and advised, "Don't worry, my daughter. Even if the emperor wants to make her the queen, he can't get over it with the queen mother and the ministers.

"Firstly, the Queen Mother is on our side, and secondly, Ye Qiandai is a princess of an enemy country. We don't know what the enemy country is thinking when sending such a person. How could the ministers allow the Emperor to make a foreigner the Empress of the Central Palace?

"Don't worry, Ye Qiandai can't be the queen."

Hearing him say this, Ye Yuqing heaved a sigh of relief and gritted her teeth and said, "Even so, I can't swallow this!

"I haven't seen the emperor for a long time. He always has various reasons to avoid me. Even the Queen Mother's words are useless.

"If you keep going like this, I'm afraid I'll be pissed to death before I become the queen!"
