Reborn to marry, she no longer wants to be the young master's mother

Chu Heng heard this, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart. He suddenly realized how terrible he was.

This feeling is really helpless.

He took a step forward and gently held Xie Chaochao's hand. Their eyes met at this moment, as if they could understand all the tenderness and determination in each other's hearts. "Chaochao, you know that your happiness and peace are my greatest wish. Since you have made up your mind, I will naturally support you with all my strength. I will hold up the world for you."

Chu Heng, the emperor who was as deep as the night sky and as thoughtful as a weaving thread, gently stroked the black jade paperweight on the desk, his eyes flashing with understanding and tenderness that were different from ordinary people. He had long seen through Xie Chaochao's endless desire for freedom and her soul that did not want to be bound by the magnificent dragon throne. So, on a spring afternoon, when the sun shone through the complex window lattices, casting mottled light and shadows, Chu Heng made a decision that shocked the court and the public, but made Xie Chaochao's heart surge - he agreed that she would not be the lonely emperor, and let her pursue the life she really yearned for.

The news spread quickly, but it did not seem to cause much waves in the deep palace, because behind this decision was Chu Heng's deep understanding and love for Xie Chaochao, and he was willing to give up the supreme power just to fulfill her wish.

In the back garden, spring is in full bloom, and flowers are in full bloom, as if even nature is singing for this rare tolerance and sacrifice. A group of maids in colorful clothes, like spring elves, play among the flowers, their hands draw gorgeous arcs in the air, accompanied by silver bell-like laughter, sweeping away the dullness of the palace.

Xie Chaochao stood not far away, watching this scene, with an unprecedented impulse in her heart. She had never felt this simple and pure happiness so closely before. It was not only the lightness of the temari flying in the air, but also the freedom of the soul being released. She took steps forward involuntarily, and every step was a farewell to the past and an expectation for the future.

"Can I join?" Xie Chaochao's voice was clear and pleasant, with a barely perceptible tremor, which was a curiosity and yearning for the unknown world. Upon hearing this, the maids stopped playing their games and turned to look at this woman who usually looked high and mighty but now seemed particularly approachable, their eyes full of surprise and joy.

Without a moment's hesitation, the maids came up to her enthusiastically, holding Xie Chaochao's hand and integrating her into this sea of ​​joy. The hand balls flew through the air, and every time they were passed, there was laughter. Xie Chaochao seemed to have returned to her carefree childhood, and the long-lost innocence and happiness spread in her heart.

At this moment, she is no longer the emperor who is overwhelmed by the heavy state affairs, but a simple, happy woman, enjoying her freedom and happiness. Chu Heng stood not far away, watching all this quietly, with a gentle smile on his lips. He knew that everything he did for Xie Chaochao was worth it. The night was falling, the stars were twinkling, and deep in the palace, a gentle and firm figure stretched out in the moonlight. It was the queen Xie Chaochao who was about to give birth. She stood in the courtyard, her eyes flashing with childlike curiosity and yearning, looking at the distant lights, as if some unknown fun was quietly calling her.

"Empress, it's late at night and the wind is cold. You should go back to your bedroom and rest." The maid Xiao Cui whispered softly, her eyes full of worry. She tightly grasped the gorgeous cloak in her hand, fearing that the sudden coldness would disturb the Empress and the dragon child in her belly.

However, Xie Chaochao gently shook her head, with a gentle but irresistible smile on her lips. "Xiao Cui, look at how beautiful the moonlight is. I haven't played so happily for a long time. The child in my belly must also be able to feel this peace and joy, right?" Her voice was soft and firm, as if it could penetrate the night and reach the softest part of people's hearts.

Xiao Cui felt mixed emotions when she heard this. She knew the Queen's temper very well. Once she made a decision, it would be difficult to change it. Moreover, this love and expectation for life was her most sincere expression of emotion as a mother. So, she sighed and finally compromised. "Okay, Queen, but please be careful. I will stay with you every step of the way."

After that, Xiao Cui carefully put a cloak on Xie Chaochao, and ordered someone to bring a cushion and an armchair to ensure that the queen would be safe while enjoying this rare leisure time. Then, the two of them slowly walked into the courtyard, stepping on the fine gravel road, and each step seemed so light and cautious.

The night wind, with the fragrance of flowers and coolness, gently brushed Xie Chaochao's cheeks. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if she could breathe in the tranquility and beauty of the entire palace. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she saw fireflies dancing not far away, and dots of light flickered in the darkness, like stars in the night sky falling into the mortal world.

"Look, Xiao Cui, those are fireflies!" Xie Chaochao pointed ahead excitedly, her eyes sparkling with childlike surprise. She ignored the maid's dissuasion, slowly stood up, and walked towards the light lightly, as if to catch those free spirits.

Seeing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly followed, with her hands slightly open, fearing that the queen might make any mistakes. However, Xie Chaochao seemed to be extremely agile. She moved lightly between the flowers, and every time she stretched out her hand, she seemed to have a silent conversation with the fireflies. Finally, she gently closed her hands, and a glimmer of light shone through her fingers. That was the first firefly she successfully caught.

"Look, I caught it!" Xie Chaochao showed it to Xiao Cui excitedly, with an innocent smile on her face. At that moment, she seemed no longer the queen who was high above everyone else, but a mother with a childlike heart, who was gently communicating with the world in her own way.

Xiao Cui, watching this scene, could not help but feel a surge of warmth in her heart. She knew how precious and rare this simple happiness was for the queen who was about to become a mother. So, she silently guarded this happiness, making this tranquility and beauty the most moving scenery of this night.

Xie Chaochao, wearing a palace dress as thin as a cicada's wing, danced with the light gauze, as if blending into the night, but she seemed out of place because of the noble temperament she inadvertently revealed. She sighed softly, it was late at night, the chill penetrated her bones, and she had to end her pleasure of drinking alone under the moon, and slowly walked into the magnificent palace. She looked at the moon and sighed that the scenery was so beautiful, but it was a pity that no one could accompany her to see it.
