The baby-making system is unreliable
Chapter 88: The Sickly Emperor vs. the Happy-looking Lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion (1)
In the fourth year of the Qingyuan period, in late July, when people were getting married, a major event occurred in the imperial city of Qingcheng. The entire street was filled with orderly carriages, and red ribbons stretched as far as the eye could see.
The streets were crowded with people, but they were just looking at the sedan from afar. They couldn't see the people inside clearly. They could only see the many maids accompanying it, and the several miles of red makeup.
Everyone leaned over to watch the rare wedding of the Emperor and Empress. The last time such a scene happened was ten years ago, and no one knew when the next time would be.
"The wedding of the Emperor and Empress doesn't happen every year. We were lucky to actually see it this time when we came to the capital."
A caravan that came from nowhere stopped to watch the scene. The leader had slightly gray hair on his temples and a white hat on his head. The accessories around his waist didn't look like something from the Central Plains. He must be a guest from afar.
"I heard that the daughter of the prime minister's family didn't marry him voluntarily. If she goes too far in getting married, she'll be in trouble. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
The pork-selling lady nearby stood with several passers-by, looking at the joyous atmosphere along the way and started discussing it.
"Hey, I've also heard that the current brother is not in good health, unlike the brother back then. Otherwise, who would the daughter of the prime minister marry?!"
The current emperor's surname is Xu, and his given name is Yimo. He was born with many diseases, which are said to be a disease he was born with. Common people like him do not know what the disease is.
Everyone only knew that it was not easy for him to live to this day. He was born with a disease and was a natural sickness-taker. He suffered from major and minor illnesses all the time, and his body had been seriously weak since childhood.
"That's right. It's a pity that the one who passed away suddenly left behind only a daughter. The current one has only been on the throne for four years and his health is not good. It's a pity that this daughter has to be married off like this."
As for the one they were talking about? He was Xu Yimo's elder brother, Xu Zhaolin. Unfortunately, he only stayed on the throne for five years. He suddenly passed away five years ago, leaving behind only a little daughter.
"There is no other way. The Queen Mother and the Princess jointly issued an order, saying that the Imperial Astronomical Observatory had calculated that this young lady was a noble lady, and they wanted this young lady to come to celebrate the wedding."
After her husband's death, the empress dowager assisted her eldest son Xu Zhaolin to ascend the throne and secured the throne with great difficulty, but her eldest son passed away.
Back then, the Queen Mother fainted from crying in front of her son's coffin. The old person sent off the young person. The scene is so heartbreaking even when thinking about it now.
Yun Xirou sat in the red sedan, recalling Tongzi's voice in her mind. She had not yet recovered from the previous story.
[Host, I can provide you with the Forget Promise Pill, which can reduce the impact of the previous story, muah. 】
"...??"
You have this thing, why don’t you take it out quickly! ? Yun Xirou rubbed her eyes and glanced at the interface. One pill costs 5000? ? !
Why is this pill so expensive? ? The unreliable system is here to steal her money, but it’s okay, she has a lot of points, so she bought a Forget Appointment Pill and now has some left.
No loss, no loss, anyway, what she wants is life, not points. Her life span has increased to more than 80 years, which is beautiful to think about.
[Host, please don't scold Tongzi! Host, Tongzi is pretty useless, don't scold Tongzi. ]
You still know that you are useless? I have never seen such an unreliable Tongzi. Forget it, just consider yourself unlucky!
Yun Xirou was thinking about the original owner's memories in her mind. She was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was said that she was born with a unique fragrance. Her mother was a foreigner from the south.
Naturally, she also inherited her mother's beauty. She was born with heterochromia, a pair of eyes that are exotic, beautiful and charming.
Her silky and soft hair shines with a shining luster; her big eyes are like deep lakes, bright and moving; under her high nose bridge, her lips are slightly upturned, revealing a charming smile; her skin is as white as snow and as delicate as porcelain.
Her mother gave birth to her younger brother, but died of illness within two years, leaving two children alone in the house. But two years later, her father made the concubine his wife, and she became her stepmother.
The only thing her mother left for Yun Xirou was the anklet that she wore on her foot all year round. There was a bell on the anklet, and the sound was not loud but one could still hear a subtle sound.
Yun Xirou took a look at the clothes she was wearing. They were not exotic. After all, she was getting married as a young lady from a prime minister's family, so naturally she would not wear the belly-revealing outfit she had imagined.
Yun Xirou's expression quickly returned to calm. She gently lifted a corner of the curtain and looked at the lively scene outside.
As the team moved forward, Yun Xirou finally got off the bridal sedan and, with the help of palace maids, slowly walked into the palace.
The hall was filled with a rich aroma. Yun Xirou let them do what they wanted and slowly bowed.
A good marriage is made in the past, and a good couple is made in heaven.[1]
Come in pairs and get married happily.
We will be together till old age and have a good beginning and a good end.
The wedding of the Emperor and Empress was complicated. Yun Xirou, wearing a red veil, was busy all day and was extremely tired. She leaned on the edge of the bed, swaying from side to side.
"Xia Mo, I'm almost starving, go get me something to eat."
The most important thing in the world is eating. Yun Xirou just felt that she was extremely hungry and thought that no one would come so soon.
"Miss, His Majesty hasn't arrived yet! This is not polite!"
Xia Mo was her personal maid, standing beside her holding a handkerchief. She had grown up with her and knew her feelings best.
"How can it be so fast?! I don't believe it, let me eat something first!!"
As Yun Xirou spoke, she lifted the veil and threw it to the side of the bed, then looked around. The palace was antique and had a scent of incense, but she had her own fragrance.
The combination of the two scents makes the whole house fragrant, and most importantly, the fragrance is not unpleasant.
She walked to the table and sat down, ignoring the wedding wine on the table, picked up the cakes and threw them into her mouth, eating for a long time.
At this moment, the door that had not been moved for a long time was suddenly opened. Yun Xirou still had unfinished pastries in her mouth. After seeing the person coming, she stood there in a daze with her mouth half open.
The visitor was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress with dragon patterns embroidered with gold thread, which were used exclusively by emperors. The dragon patterns were so lifelike that they seemed to take off the clothes.
The dragon's body was winding and its scales were sparkling with golden light. Its eyes were bright and showed majesty and domineering.
The neckline, cuffs and hem of the wedding dress are inlaid with pearls and gems, which are dazzling and show endless luxury and nobility.
There was some tenderness in his peach blossom eyes, and his facial features were extremely gentle. His complexion was not good either, as he was a little pale due to years of illness, and his body looked a little thin. He looked like a weak and gentle young man.
As soon as Xu Yimo entered the room, he saw his little queen eating cakes like a little hamster. Is this the noble lady that the Imperial Observatory mentioned?!
Her mouth was stuffed full and her cheeks were bulging. When she saw him come in, her mouth opened wide and she looked at him stupidly.
How cute is this look? I originally thought that the Queen Mother's decree was hasty, but now I don't feel disgusted.
Thinking this, he walked over to her and waved to Xia Mo, and soon they were the only two in the room.
"Ahem... I'm hungry, so let's find something to eat and eat whatever we want."
Xu Yimo coughed twice, slowly sat down beside her, and walked very slowly step by step.
Yun Xirou finally came to her senses and bowed to him as if she had just woken up from a dream, but she seemed to feel something was wrong.
She walked back to the bedside as if she was guilty of something, picked up the veil and covered herself with it, then sat obediently on the edge of the bed, pretending nothing had happened.
Xu Yimo watched her movements and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. There was light in his eyes, and he looked more energetic and lively.
"Your Majesty, I felt a little hungry, so I took a small bite."
After hearing her address, Xu Yimo frowned slightly with some displeasure, looked at the remains of pastries on the table, and spoke lightly.
"Ahem... We can relax a bit when it's just the two of us. I don't like these rules either. They're tiring."
Yun Xirou was wearing a veil, her vision was blocked and she couldn't see anything clearly. She suppressed the anxiety in her heart and remembered that his voice was actually quite... quite nice.
"Then... How would Your Majesty like me to address you?"
Xu Yimo seemed a little happy to hear her straightforward words. He lowered his eyebrows and smiled softly: "Arou, is it okay for me to call you that?"
Yun Xirou nodded, but before she could react, a light suddenly appeared in front of her.
It turned out that he had walked up to her without her noticing, lifted her veil, and amazed her eyes. His beautiful face, with a bit of sickness, was really, why didn't he give birth to a girl? !
"I don't have many friends in this palace. I don't like the red tape of the palace."
He was fed up with the constraints of the palace rules, so no one liked to call themselves "I" instead of "Zhen".
"So you call me... Ah Mo in private. When I was a child, my brothers and sisters called me Xiao Mo. I think your name is different."
Xu Yimo always spoke in a light and gentle tone, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He had obviously seen her before, but she looked different without the veil.
The warm red candlelight shone on her face. Although the candlelight was bright, there was still a distinction between light and dark.
In this color tone, her heterochromatic eyes were extremely beautiful, and there was a certain charm in his eyes that made his heart tremble, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Amo!?"
Yun Xirou blinked her eyes, opened her lips slightly, and called his name softly.
“Cough cough cough… cough cough cough… Ah Rou, cough cough cough…”
Xu Yimo couldn't stop coughing. He almost couldn't breathe and his body was shaking.
"Amo! Are you okay?!"
Yun Xirou hurriedly supported him, helped him sit on the edge of the bed, and stroked his back. No matter what, she couldn't let anything happen to him.
"It's okay. It's an old problem. My body has always been like this. I'm sorry for that."
Xu Yimo coughed for a long while, his face became a little more rosy, the corners of his eyes became a little more red, and he coughed out a few tears.
What a beautiful picture of a sickly handsome man! ! It's really beautiful! !
Yun Xirou was a little stunned, and her gaze on him became increasingly profound.
"Arou, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
"Beautiful." These two words came out of his mouth without his brain reacting, and his mouth had already taken the lead.
By the time Yun Xirou reacted, she had already said it, and her face turned red with shame.
"..."
After not saying anything for a long while, Yun Xirou turned her head to look at him, only to find that his earlobes had already turned red.
Is this guy embarrassed?! Who would have thought he was so innocent? ?
Xu Yimo was stunned by this straightforward praise. He had looked weak since childhood, but no one had ever said that to him.
On this day, it was the first time that he stared at a girl in amazement, and it was also the first time that someone stared at him in amazement.
Growing up, he has met too many people who look at him with sympathy, heartache or pity.
His brothers and sisters all sympathized with his illness, and his mother looked at him with distressed eyes, but the girl in front of him was different.
When his brother was still alive, he thought he could hide behind his brothers and sisters forever, but Xu Zhaolin died.
Now, in this huge palace, apart from his mother, there are only him and his twin sister, Princess Shuyao.
Although he was a sickly man, he worked diligently every day after taking office. With the secret assistance of his sister, he was able to pacify the court and intimidate the ministers.
But even so, he knew clearly that many of his ministers were secretly counting the days, waiting for his death.
My elder brother has only one daughter. If he dies early without leaving any children, there will surely be disputes in the world again.
His mother sought help from famous doctors and even the gods and Buddhas for him, but he didn’t believe it! !
If there are gods and Buddhas in this world, why have they never appeared? Why have they never opened their eyes to see the suffering and injustice in this world! ?
"Um... Ah Mo, your illness will definitely be cured, don't give up so quickly."
Yun Xirou once again chose to change the subject. She didn’t know if what she said was right or not, but it was good advice after all, so she wouldn’t be thrown out!
"I'll remember what Arou said. I won't give up."
He had just coughed and his throat was still a little hoarse. His originally gentle voice now had a certain magnetic quality, making people feel numb inside.
He will never give up for the sake of his mother and sister. He will never give up.
"I know you don't really want to marry me, and I don't know how long my body can last. If you don't want to, we don't have to..."
Xu Yimo's tone sounded calm, but his clenched fists revealed his nervousness.
"Amo, are you going to kick me out of the palace?! Aren't we husband and wife?"
Yun Xirou looked up at the man. In fact, she understood that he was unwilling to force herself.
"Ahem... I just don't want to keep you from being delayed! I won't kick you out of the palace. I will give you the respect you deserve."
As Xu Yimo spoke, the light in his eyes dimmed and a weak smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. He looked at her with a gentle look in his eyes.
"If one day, I am no longer here, I will give you freedom. May you live the rest of your life in peace and happiness."
