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

Deep in the magnificent palace, the moonlight penetrated the clouds like a thread and gently fell into the bedroom of Empress Xie Chaochao. The flickering candlelight in the room illuminated the gentle and resolute face of Empress Xie Chaochao. Her eyes seemed to contain endless wisdom and depth, and she was quietly gazing at the world shrouded in the night outside the window.

"Deal with this man San," Xie Chaochao's voice was soft but carried a force that could not be ignored. She opened her red lips slightly and said to the personal maid standing beside her, "I do have an impression of him. That man has a sinister look in his eyes and acts treacherously. He is definitely not a good person. The emperor dealt with him properly this time, which is really gratifying." After that, she gently stroked the exquisite embroidery on her sleeves. Every movement revealed the royal family's elegance and inviolable dignity.

Emperor Chu Heng, the king who ruled the world, heard the queen's words and raised his head from the pile of memorials, his eyes flashing with indescribable emotion and relief. He slowly stood up and walked towards Xie Chaochao with steady steps. Every step seemed to echo the history, carrying the deep trust and attachment to the queen.

"Chao Chao, you always understand me so well." Chu Heng's voice was low and gentle, like a gentle spring breeze, blowing through his heart and bringing endless warmth. He gently took Xie Chao Chao's hand, the big hands that once pointed out the country and wrote history, but now they were so gentle that they seemed to melt all the ice and frost in the world, "In this deep palace, it is my honor to have you by my side."

Queen Xie Chaochao smiled slightly, and that smile showed both tenderness and affection for the emperor and a clear understanding of the situation. She knew very well that within the palace, power and conspiracy were intertwined, and every step had to be taken with caution, but she also understood that as long as she fought side by side with Chu Heng, she would not be afraid of any storm.

"Your Majesty, although I am in the harem, I am always concerned about the world. Dealing with the third person, although a small matter, is enough to see the big picture. I am willing to be your Majesty's solid backing. No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, I will walk with your Majesty and face the wind and rain together." Xie Chaochao's words were full of gems and affection. Not only was it a promise to Chu Heng, but also a commitment to her duties as the queen.

Inside the deep palace walls of the Forbidden City, the flickering candlelight illuminated the well-defined face of Emperor Chu Heng, whose eyes were filled with a subtle worry and expectation. It was already late at night, but the magnificent palace was still brightly lit, and it seemed that even the air was frozen in this heavy silence. Chu Heng gently put down the red brush in his hand, and his eyes passed through the layers of bead curtains and fell on Empress Xie Chaochao, whose figure appeared particularly gentle and firm under the soft candlelight.

"Chao Chao," Chu Heng's voice was low and magnetic, breaking the silence in the room, "When do you plan to return to the palace? Although the outside of the palace is good, it is not a place to stay for long." His words revealed his deep concern for the queen's safety, and his heartache for her hard work running around among the people during this period of time.

Upon hearing this, Empress Xie Chaochao gently raised her bright eyes, which sparkled with wisdom and determination. She was wearing a simple yet luxurious dress, with elegant orchids embroidered on the lapels, like a touch of warm sunshine in winter, illuminating the entire hall. "Your Majesty, I plan to return to the palace the day after tomorrow." Her voice was gentle and firm, and every word revealed an unquestionable strength.

"Heavy snow has been falling for several days in a row, causing landslides in many places and making life miserable for the people. I was fortunate to have your Majesty's permission to go to the disaster area in person and share the hardships with the people. Now, with the protection of God and the joint efforts of officials and people from all over the country, the landslide problem has been basically solved and the victims have been properly resettled." Xie Chaochao's words were full of deep sympathy for the suffering of the people and pride in being able to personally participate in the disaster relief operation.

Chu Heng heard this, and a trace of admiration and relief flashed in his eyes. He knew very well that this queen was not only beautiful, but also had a compassionate heart, always standing up at critical moments to help the people solve their problems. He slowly stood up, walked to the queen, and gently held her hand. Although her hands were as delicate as jade, they were a little rough due to days of hard work.

"Chao Chao, you have worked hard. I have seen and remembered everything you have done. After returning to the palace, I will reward you handsomely to commend your achievements." There was some tenderness and doting in Chu Heng's voice, as if he was making a promise to his most beloved person.

Empress Xie Chaochao smiled slightly, and that smile was as bright and warm as a flower blooming in spring. "Your Majesty, you are too kind. All I have done is to fulfill my responsibilities as the queen. As long as the people can live and work in peace and contentment, I will be satisfied."

Chu Heng hugged Xie Chaochao tightly in his arms. Her hair gently brushed his cheek, bringing with it a subtle fragrance that made his heart beat faster involuntarily. He lowered his head and stared into her eyes that were shining like stars, and said gently and firmly: "Chaochao, no matter what you do, I will be with you until the end of the world."

The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight shone through the sparse clouds and sprinkled on them, adding a bit of haziness and romance to this warm scene. When Xie Chaochao heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she was deeply moved. She gently leaned on Chu Heng's chest, feeling the strong heartbeat and warm body temperature, as if the whole world had become quiet because of it.

"Heng, are you really willing to face the unknown challenges with me? Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, or there are strong winds and huge waves?" Xie Chaochao's voice was trembling a little, but it was filled with expectations and courage for the future.

Chu Heng smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warmest sunshine in spring, enough to melt all the ice and snow. "Chao Chao, from the moment I met you, I knew that my life was closely connected with you. Your dreams and your pursuits will be my driving force to move forward. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as we work hand in hand, nothing can stop us."

As he spoke, Chu Heng tightly grasped Xie Chaochao's hand, as if he wanted to pass all his strength and determination to her. Their hands were tightly clasped together, as if their two hearts were also tightly connected and could not be separated.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the night. Several figures flashed out from the darkness, with malicious eyes. They were obviously coming for Xie Chaochao, their intentions were unclear, but the atmosphere instantly became tense and dangerous.

Chu Heng's eyes instantly became fierce. He protected Xie Chaochao behind him, ready to face the coming storm. "Chaochao, don't be afraid. I'm here. No matter what happens, I will protect you and stay with you."
