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

The queen stepped into the inner hall, and the maids bowed and retreated. The whole space instantly became quiet, leaving only the sound of her light footsteps and the slight sound of her robes rubbing against each other. Chu Heng looked at the gradually receding back, feeling mixed emotions. He knew very well that the queen had not only experienced the hardships of childbirth, but also in the process, with amazing perseverance and wisdom, she consolidated her position and won the respect and love of the court and the people.

As the night deepened, the moonlight spread across the entire palace. Chu Heng stood alone in the imperial garden, looking into the distance, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind. The growth and transformation of Empress Xie Chaochao was like a novel with ups and downs, and each chapter was full of challenges and opportunities. She always wrote her own brilliant chapter with extraordinary wisdom and courage. This momentum not only shocked Chu Heng, but also inspired his determination and courage as an emperor to fight side by side with the empress and jointly create a prosperous and glorious era.

Empress Xie Chaochao, wearing a luxurious golden phoenix gown, with her hair tied up high and embellished with pearls and jade, looked like a peony blooming in the morning light, graceful and gentle. She walked lightly into the magnificent imperial kitchen, her heart full of care and worry for the emperor. In recent days, the court has been changing, wars have been frequent on the border, and the emperor has been frowning and unable to sleep at night. Xie Chaochao saw all this and felt pain in her heart.

She didn't know that, sitting high on the dragon throne, the emperor's heart was filled with complex emotions - gratitude for the queen's tenderness and consideration, worries about the difficulties of state affairs, and a deep hidden love for her pure and innocent, consistent love. However, the emperor chose to endure all these emotions silently, not wanting the queen to cause him any more trouble.

The dining table was filled with delicacies, but no one had the heart to savor them carefully. Xie Chaochao sat down, his eyes inadvertently passing over the emperor, but suddenly found that he was looking at him with an indescribable affection. Those deep eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, and like a bottomless ocean, it was impossible to peek into his true thoughts.

She couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. The ivory chopsticks in her hand gently rested on the delicate porcelain plate, making a subtle and crisp sound, breaking the silence in the kitchen. "Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like this?" Xie Chaochao's voice was soft and slightly curious, her brows slightly furrowed, and her eyes flashed with confusion and concern. In her tone, there was both surprise at this sudden gaze and deep concern for the emperor's inner world, as if she wanted to explore all the secrets and burdens in his heart through this question.

The emperor heard this and a gentle smile appeared on his lips. In that smile, he admired the queen's intelligence and was touched by her innocent care. He slowly put down the jade chopsticks in his hand, his eyes still never leaving the queen, and said softly: "Chao Chao, do you know that behind this prosperity, having you is my greatest comfort. I see every worry and every effort you make, and I keep them in my heart."

As soon as these words came out, the kitchen seemed to be gently surrounded by a warm current, and even the air was filled with warmth and sweetness. Xie Chaochao's eyes were slightly red. She didn't expect that her small action could give the emperor such great comfort. She took a deep breath, trying not to let the tears fall, and smiled: "Your Majesty, I only wish to be your solid backing, share the wind and rain with you, and enjoy the bright moon together."

At this moment, the two people's hearts are closely connected, as if the whole world has stopped. In the depths of the palace full of power struggles and turbulent times, they found each other and became each other's most solid support. And this deep affection will also become the strongest motivation for them to face the future storms together and move forward hand in hand.

The emperor raised his lips slightly, and that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, warm and full of indescribable meaning. He shook his head gently, his eyes still fixed on Xie Chaochao not far away, as if he wanted to engrave her figure into his heart. "I didn't think of anything," his voice was low and magnetic, and every word seemed to be carefully carved by the wind, with majesty and tenderness that could not be ignored, "I just simply think that she is very beautiful."

Xie Chaochao frowned slightly when she heard this, and her clear eyes like autumn water flashed with a mixture of helplessness and pampering. She sighed softly, as if she was indulging the childish behavior of the monarch in front of her. "Your Majesty," she said with a bit of teasing and tenderness, "You are the king of a country, why are you still so talkative? If the ministers in the court heard this, they would definitely laugh at you."

The emperor was not angry after hearing this, but laughed even more happily. His laughter was hearty and infectious, instantly dispelling the dull atmosphere around him. He slowly approached Xie Chaochao, and every step seemed so calm, as if the whole world was making way for him. "Chaochao, everything in this world is nothing but passing clouds to me. Only you can make me happy and forget my troubles." His words were sincere and affectionate, and every word seemed to flow from the bottom of his heart, hitting Xie Chaochao's heart directly.

Xie Chaochao's face was flushed. She lowered her head, not daring to look directly into the emperor's eyes. She felt mixed emotions. She knew that she was just a commoner, and it was a great honor to be favored by the emperor, not to mention this deep affection. But she also knew that there were turbulent times and undercurrents in the palace. How long could this relationship last?

At this moment, a breeze blew by, bringing with it the fresh scent of flowers and plants in the distance, as if blessing this extraordinary couple. Xie Chaochao raised his head and looked at the emperor again, his eyes flashing with determination and courage. "Your Majesty, no matter how bumpy the road ahead is, Chaochao is willing to walk side by side with you and weather the storm together."

The emperor's eyes flashed with emotion when he heard this. He held Xie Chaochao's hand tightly, as if he wanted to pass all his strength and promises to her. "Okay, Chaochao, with your words, I will be fearless. From now on, no matter the vicissitudes of the court or the difficulties and obstacles in life, I will go hand in hand with you and never leave you."

Deep in the magnificent Forbidden City, the afterglow of the setting sun penetrated the clouds like a fine thread, and sprinkled on the bluestone slabs of the imperial garden, giving the ancient palace a gentle golden glow. The emperor, the always majestic and solemn monarch who unified the world, was like a young boy who had just begun to fall in love, with an unprecedented light flashing in his eyes. He walked forward quickly, almost trotting, and grabbed the slender hand of Empress Xie Chaochao.
