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

In the spring days of the imperial city, peach blossoms are flying and catkins are fluttering, creating a lively scene. With the sound of melodious and solemn bells and drums, Emperor Chu Heng, wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with golden dragons, slowly stepped into the imperial garden. The sunlight shines through the clouds, casting a soft and mysterious glow on his handsome face, and every step he takes shows the majesty and tenderness of the emperor.

His eyes were inadvertently attracted by an exquisite tiger-head hat. The hat was made of bright red silk, and the tiger head was lifelike. Its eyes were inlaid with black pearls, and they were bright and sharp, as if it would jump out of the hat in the next second, showing endless vitality and might. Chu Heng's face unconsciously bloomed with a warm smile, which was an infinite vision and expectation for the future.

Queen Xie Chaochao, wearing a phoenix robe made of brocade and a nine-phoenix pearl crown on her head, was dignified yet gentle, standing aside, quietly admiring the spring scenery in the garden. Her eyes were filled with a hint of worry, but also with a yearning for a better life. Seeing this, Chu Heng felt a warm current in his heart. He took a light step, as if afraid of disturbing this moment of tranquility, and walked straight towards Xie Chaochao.

"Chao Chao, look at this tiger-head hat, how delicate and cute it is." Chu Heng's voice was gentle and full of magnetism. He gently lifted the tiger-head hat, letting the sunlight penetrate the delicate stitches and reflecting a more brilliant brilliance. A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Chao Chao's eyes. She looked up at Chu Heng, and their eyes met at this moment, as if the whole world had stopped.

"Your Majesty, this tiger-head hat has profound meaning. The tiger head and tiger brain symbolize that our child will be as powerful as a tiger and fearless in the future." There was an imperceptible tremor in Xie Chaochao's voice, which was the excitement and anxiety of a mother who was about to welcome a new life.

Chu Heng heard this, and an unprecedented sense of determination and joy surged in his heart. He gently embraced Xie Chaochao in his arms, and the two figures stretched out in the warm spring sun, interweaving into a warm and beautiful picture. "Chaochao, believe me, we will definitely have a lovely baby, he will be the fruit of our love and the hope for the future of this country." Chu Heng's words were filled with unquestionable determination, and his embrace was warm and powerful, as if it could dispel all the haze and anxiety in the world.

In the magnificent and majestic Forbidden City, the sun shines through the intricately carved window lattices, dappling on the phoenix robe of Empress Xie Chaochao, giving her already beautiful face a soft and mysterious glow. She sits on a brocade couch embroidered with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, gently playing with a string of jade-like Buddhist beads in her hands, with a hint of worry and concern between her brows.

"Your Majesty," Xie Chaochao's voice was gentle but with a force that could not be ignored. She turned her head slightly and looked gently at the majestic yet gentle Emperor Chu Heng who was sitting beside her. "In recent days, I have always felt an inexplicable uneasiness in my heart. Can you tell me if there have been any major events in the palace or in the world recently?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Heng gently put down the red pen he was using to review the memorials, and looked deeply at his queen, whose eyes held too many unknown secrets and deep affection. He shook his head slowly, a soothing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was low and magnetic: "Chao Chao, don't be too concerned about the world. Although worrying about the country and the people is a queen's virtue, your well-being is the most important thing in the world to me."

However, how could Xie Chaochao not know what the emperor meant? She sighed softly, and that sigh seemed to blow away all the dust in the palace, but it also concealed her deep love for this land. "Your Majesty, although I am in the deep palace, I also know the suffering of the people. The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every man, not to mention that I am the queen, how can I stay out of it? If there is any disturbance, I hope Your Majesty will not hide it. I am willing to share the wind and rain with Your Majesty."

Chu Heng heard this, and a warm current surged in his heart. He stood up, slowly walked to Xie Chaochao, and gently held her hand. His warm hands wrapped around her slightly cold hands, as if to pass all his strength and determination to her. "Chaochao, how could I not know your feelings? It's just that the affairs in this palace are so complicated that sometimes even I can't figure it out. But please believe that as long as I am here, I will not let any storms disturb you, and I will not let the world be in turmoil at all."

At this point, Chu Heng's eyes suddenly became firm and deep, as if he had penetrated time and space and saw a certain scene in the future. He took a deep breath and continued, "However, there is indeed something that has happened recently. Although it is not earth-shattering, it is also quite tricky. The small countries on the border are ready to move and seem to have the intention of invading. I have secretly ordered the border generals to strengthen their vigilance, and at the same time, I am secretly preparing food and grass in case of emergency. I didn't want to let you know about this matter, so as not to worry you too much, but since you asked, I will tell you the truth."

Xie Chaochao heard this, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, but more of it was trust and support for Chu Heng. "Your Majesty, this is a matter of national importance. Although I cannot fight the enemy in the battlefield, I am willing to do my best in the rear to support Your Majesty and protect the peace of this land and the people. Please take care of yourself and don't worry me."

The two smiled at each other, and their tacit understanding and deep affection quietly blossomed in this magnificent palace, as if even the air was filled with a warm and firm power, indicating that no matter how bumpy the road ahead was, they would face it together hand in hand.

Winter, this season is like a cold and ruthless painter, using his cold brushstrokes to wantonly smear silver-white paint between heaven and earth. The cold wind is like a knife, cutting every inch of exposed skin, making people involuntarily wrap themselves tightly in heavy clothes. The snow, at first, was just a few scattered spots, like icing sugar accidentally sprinkled in the sky, and gradually, they became dense and turbulent, like thousands of troops galloping down, swallowing the whole world in a vast expanse of white.

Empress Xie Chaochao, wearing a gorgeous dress with golden phoenix embroidery and a soft fox fur coat, could still feel the chill coming from all directions. She stood in front of the palace of the Forbidden City, looking up at the snowflakes flying all over the sky, with admiration for this natural wonder and a hint of sadness in her eyes. The snowflakes gently fell on her eyelashes, instantly melting into tiny drops of water, sparkling with crystal light, adding a bit of otherworldly temperament to her.

At this time, a stronger cold wind blew, rolling up the snow on the ground, like a white vortex, spinning and dispersing in all directions. The emperor, the man with the most power in the world, stepped on the flying snow and slowly walked towards Xie Chaochao. He was wearing a dragon robe, and the dragon pattern embroidered with gold thread looked more majestic under the reflection of the snow. Every step he took seemed so steady and powerful, as if he could flatten all the wind and snow and obstacles.
