"Father, mother." As soon as Yun Shang entered Weiyang Palace, she trotted to Emperor Ning and Shu Jin and bowed to them. In Shu Jin's arms was Chenxi, who was asleep. In Emperor Ning's hand was the parrot sent by Wang Jinhuan to the palace. When he heard Yun Shang's voice, he looked up and said, "Your parrot is interesting."
Before Yun Shang could respond, the parrot said, "A fair lady, a gentleman's desire."
Yun Shang couldn't help covering her mouth and said to Emperor Ning and Shu Jin, "Yes, I left it in the palace because I've never seen such a dissolute parrot. It can relieve my boredom when I'm free."
Emperor Ning nodded and handed the parrot to Qian Zhuo. He straightened his sleeves and said, "Ask all your servants to leave."
Yun Shang nodded. Knowing that Empress Ning had something to say, Yun Shang waved her hand to the servants.
The servants went out one after another. Emperor Ning sighed, "Luo Qingyan was there the day before yesterday. I don't know how to say about some things. Today only we four are in your palace. I have something to talk to you."
Yun Shang nodded slightly and lowered her eyes.
"You have always been smart. I let you come to the State of Xia with Luo Qingyan because I thought you were smart and would never suffer losses. Besides, there is some true love between you and Luo Qingyan. I have missed good times to be with your mother. I didn't want you to miss the person you like, so I agreed to marry you to him. But now I don't think you are as good as you were in the State of Ning. You have suffered so much grievance. I'm a little regretful. " Emperor Ning had been an emperor for dozens of years, so he was naturally dignified. His frown made people tremble with fear.
Yun Shang smiled and looked up at Emperor Ning. "I know what father and mother are worried about me. How could I not want to be a carefree princess by the side of father and mother? But the world was unpredictable and there were always some imperfections. I'm afraid that father doesn't know much about the things that I have deliberately concealed from you. But after I've gone through it, I know it's difficult for people to live a happy life."
If she hadn't experienced it in her previous life, she wouldn't have been so enlightened. Even she got the experience and intelligent from her previous life, she still spent seven years learning, arranging and plotting in this life. After seven years of preparation, she took revenge and got rid of the Empress.
But coming to the State of Xia was something she didn't expect. She didn't have much time to prepare, and the enemies in the State of Xia had been staring at her and Luo Qingyan from beginning to end. They had never been relaxed at all. They had worked much harder. But even so, in the past two years, many obstacles were almost removed by them one by one. Although she had paid a lot, it was much better than she expected.
"Life is full of gain and loss." Yun Shang lowered her head gently, and the smile at the corners of her mouth became more complicated. "Father said that I'm intelligent, and many people have praised me like this, but I gradually understand that the so-called intelligence is just a more thorough understanding in the face of gain and loss. I've begun to learn to accept it gradually, and I feel that maybe everything is not as bad as we think.
Shu Jin sighed, "You are only nineteen years old now, but you are much more open-minded. However, Luo Qingyan is the emperor after all. The matter of royal children is difficult for you to overcome. What are you going to do? Are you going to compromise or fight against it?"
"It's not easy to meet someone who deserves a lifelong companion. Since we love each other, we won't allow anyone come between us. We will not give up." Yun Shang said in a soft but determined voice.
Shu Jin nodded slightly, but the worry in his eyes increased. "It's not easy..."
"I don't care if it is easy or not." Seeing the melancholy on Shu Jin's face, Emperor Ning suddenly pounded the table and said, "You are the princess of the State of Ning. You can do whatever you want. I will support you no matter what. Whoever dares to bully my daughter, I will definitely not let him go."
Emperor Ning's slap woke Chenxi up. Chenxi must have heard Emperor Ning's words before he opened his eyes. He jumped out of Shu Jin's arms and shouted, "Who? Who dares to bully my sister? I'll beat him to death!"
All of them burst into laughter.
Just as they were talking, a voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, the Prince has woken up. He is crying. No one can stop him."
Hearing this, Yun Shang stood up in a hurry, walked to the door, took Bao'er over and coaxed softly, "What's wrong? Honey, don't cry. Mom is here..."
Chenxi also ran over, grabbed Yun Shang's sleeve and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with him?" Holding Bao'er in her arms, Yun Shang sat down and said softly, "I don't know. Maybe he had a nightmare."
