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

Empress Xie Chaochao shook her head gently, and the pearl curtain hanging from the exquisite phoenix crown swayed slightly with her movements, flashing a tiny and cold light. She sat helplessly on the carved pear wood chair, her eyes passing through the complicated palace walls and falling on the plum blossoms in the courtyard that were blooming proudly in the snow. The cold wind blew past, bringing with it waves of delicate fragrance, but it also rolled up the endless loneliness and boredom in her heart.

The plum blossoms on the branches were red like blood clots. They were particularly dazzling in the snow-covered world, but they also reflected her lonely mood at the moment. Each plum blossom seemed to be telling the tenacity of blooming alone without fear of the severe cold, but Xie Chaochao felt that although the scenery in the garden was beautiful, it was incompatible with the desolation in her heart, and it felt so boring.

She opened her red lips and let out a long sigh, which echoed in the empty courtyard, adding a bit of sadness. Then, she slowly stood up, and her gorgeous clothes swayed gently in the cold wind, like a petal about to wither, beautiful but with unspeakable sorrow.

Xie Chaochao turned and walked into the inner room, where a palace maid had already prepared a simple yet elegant dress for her, which was obviously a preparation for her to leave the palace. She gently untied the complicated palace dress, and each time she untied a layer, it was like she had unloaded a burden, and the free will that had been bound for a long time seemed to quietly awaken at this moment. After changing into the dress, she looked lighter, and a long-lost light flashed in her eyes, which was the curiosity and yearning for the world outside the palace.

"Prepare the sedan chair. I want to go out for a walk." Her voice was soft but full of unquestionable firmness. Upon hearing this, the palace maids responded immediately. For a moment, the entire palace seemed to be busy with this sudden decision. Xie Chaochao stood in front of the bronze mirror, looking at herself in the mirror who was about to walk out of the deep palace. She felt both uneasy and expectant. She knew that by taking this step, she might be able to temporarily escape from this golden cage-like palace and find a trace of her own happiness and freedom. Outside the palace, the unknown world was waiting for her to explore, full of infinite possibilities and excitement, which made her heart beat faster, as if a wonderful adventure was about to begin.

Emperor Chu Heng, the emperor wearing a dragon robe and revealing supreme majesty and a hint of melancholy, involuntarily left the heavy government affairs on his desk and hurried into Fengyi Palace the moment he learned that Empress Xie Chaochao was about to leave the palace. The sunlight shone through the carved window lattices, dappled on his dragon robe, adding a warm and hurried color to this magnificent palace.

"Chao Chao, I heard you are leaving the palace?" Chu Heng's voice was filled with a subtle nervousness and pleading. He looked deeply at the woman in front of him, who was dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, with eyebrows like distant mountains and eyes like autumn water - his queen, Xie Chao Chao. Her beauty lies not only in her stunning appearance, but also in her temperament of transcending the world and perseverance.

Xie Chaochao turned around gently, her clear eyes flashing with determination. She shook her head slightly, her hair swaying gently with the movement, like willow branches dancing in the spring breeze, soft and powerful. "Your Majesty, I have made up my mind. I am leaving the palace this time to find the legendary doctor to cure your long-standing illness." Her voice was soft and firm, and every word seemed to be carefully considered, full of deep love and responsibility for her husband.

Chu Heng felt mixed emotions when he heard this. He knew that as an emperor, he carried the weight of the country on his shoulders, but he also knew that without health, all this would be in vain. However, how could he feel at ease letting his beloved wife go into danger alone? "Chao Chao, there are many dangers outside the palace. How can I let you go alone? If you stay in the palace, I will send the most elite guards to search for famous doctors all over the world, and we will definitely find an antidote." His tone was full of unquestionable authority, but also concealed deep worry and reluctance.

Xie Chaochao slowly took a few steps forward, stretched out her delicate hand, and gently stroked Chu Heng's tightly furrowed brow. That gentle power seemed to be able to soothe all the troubles in the world. "Your Majesty, I have made up my mind and I must go. Have you forgotten? I have learned martial arts from my father since I was young. Although I am not as brave as men, I am capable of protecting myself. What's more, God may help me on this trip. I will definitely return safely and bring back a miracle doctor to cure your illness." Her eyes flashed with unshakable determination, which was a deep commitment to her lover and confidence in her own abilities.

Chu Heng looked at her, with mixed emotions in his heart. He knew very well that once this queen who had walked through the ups and downs with him made a decision, no one could stop her. In the end, he could only sigh and hold Xie Chaochao's hand tightly, as if he wanted to condense all his worries and reluctance into this tight grip. "Chaochao, be careful. I'll wait for your triumphant return here."

After saying that, Chu Heng let go of her hand and watched Xie Chaochao walk out of the palace gate step by step. Her back gradually lengthened in the afterglow of the setting sun until she disappeared from sight. He stood alone in the same place, his eyes deep, with both worries about the unknown and endless expectations for his beloved wife's return. This journey of love and sacrifice kicked off, full of unknown excitement and challenges, and also heralded the beginning of a legendary story.

In the magnificent and towering imperial city, Empress Xie Chaochao's willful behavior was like an irresistible spring breeze that ruffled the calm waters of the deep palace. She was dressed in an elaborate and gorgeous phoenix robe, with determination and unyielding expression between her brows. She stood in front of the magnificent palace, her eyes piercing through the palace walls, as if she could see through the shackles that bound her freedom.

"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind. I have to leave the palace this time." Xie Chaochao's voice was soft, but it was full of unquestionable power. Her eyes were shining with desire for the unknown world, a light unique to a bird that has lived in the palace for a long time and longs to fly.

Emperor Chu Heng, the most powerful emperor in the world, faced the Queen's insistence, and a look of helplessness and doting flashed across his face. He knew very well that this woman who had been with him for many years had a toughness and dream hidden in her heart. So, he spoke slowly, with a hint of compromise in his voice: "Since the Queen insists so much, I... can only obey you. But, let me go with you, okay?"

Chu Heng's words were full of concern and reluctance. He was eager to protect this rare persistence and courage in his own way. However, Xie Chaochao shook her head gently. Her refusal was like the most gentle refusal in spring, but equally firm: "Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness. But I hope to travel alone this time. This is not only an exploration of myself, but also a pursuit of the unfulfilled dream in my heart. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will act carefully and return safely."
