Wearing a book, hooking him up

Anshun stood opposite the two men and began to read the imperial edict.

"It is God's destiny, the emperor decreed:

Su Jingyao, the daughter of Shang Shuling, is gentle and virtuous, talented and virtuous, graceful and kind-hearted.

Her appearance is like a peach blossom in spring, bright and beautiful; her character is like the bright moon in autumn night, clear and flawless.

Since entering the Eastern Palace, she has strictly observed the code of conduct for women, been respectful and docile, and has won my heart.

Now she is eight months pregnant and will soon give birth to a dragon heir for me. This is truly a blessing to me and a good thing for the royal family. The fetus in her belly is like a treasure given by heaven, carrying the hope of the king and country.

She is kind-hearted, generous to others, and has dignified manners, making her a role model for the harem.

In recognition of her virtue, I have specially appointed her as Empress, the mother of the country.

I hope she can lead the harem with a kind heart and assist me with her wisdom.

After she gives birth, an auspicious day will be chosen to hold a ceremony to crown her as the queen, and the announcement will be made to the world so that everyone will know.

Admire this. "

After Anshun finished reading it, he put on a flattering smile, collected the imperial edict, held it in both hands, and handed it respectfully to the queen.

Su Jingyao took it and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

After saying that, Su Jingyao handed the imperial edict to Miaoyun, signaling her to keep it properly.

Miaoyun took the imperial edict with both hands and stepped aside.

Jun Zechen's heart was filled with indescribable joy. He, who had always been calm and steady, felt splendor and warmth for the first time.

It was an emotion he couldn't explain himself. It turned out that having her as his queen would make him so happy, as if the softest corner of his heart was filled with this joy.

At this moment, he lacked the usual calmness that was not in line with his age, and his deep eyes were filled with a sense of high spirits.

Jun Zechen raised the corner of his mouth and stood up from the couch. He stretched out his hand in front of Su Jingyao, his fingers long and straight.

"Let's go, my queen. I will take you to Kunning Palace."

His voice was deliberately deep and gentle, as if he was specifically trying to seduce women.

Su Jingyao raised her head slightly, and Jun Zechen's handsome face was reflected in her beautiful eyes.

Her gaze lingered on his face for a moment, then she smiled sweetly, raised her hand slightly, and placed it on Jun Zechen's hand.

His palms were warm and broad, and as soon as they touched hers, he held them tightly, as if conveying a firm promise.

Jun Zechen held her hand and walked out of Shuining Palace step by step.

The two of them sat on the imperial carriage together, and he held her intimately all the time, all the way from Shuining Palace to Kunning Palace.

When they arrived at Kunning Palace, Su Jingyao stared at the familiar palace and fell into a trance again.

Those past events kept flashing through her mind.

However, Jun Zechen, who was standing beside her, was looking straight ahead and did not notice the complex emotions in Su Jingyao's eyes.

She has lived in this palace for two lifetimes. In the first lifetime, she fought openly and secretly with the women in the harem, and also constantly competed with Jun Zechen for his heart.

She relied on her own strategy to win back the position of queen and even won Jun Zechen's heart.

But at that time, Su Jingyao had never believed in a man's sincerity. After all, Jun Zechen was the emperor, and his love had no guarantee. However, Jun Zechen used his love and his sincerity for twenty years to gain Su Jingyao's trust and love.

But in the first life, even though Su Jingyao loved Jun Zechen, she loved herself more.

In the second life, she and Jun Zechen already had the memory of being together for a lifetime. The two of them started over again, loving and trusting each other deeply.

She is Jun Zechen's Crown Princess and his only queen. For her, Jun Zechen bears the pressure from his mother and the pressure from court officials. She is the only one who accompanies him throughout his life.

In Su Jingyao's heart, Jun Zechen in the second life is not only her lover, but also a family member, with no distinction between them.

Sometimes Su Jingyao felt that in her second life, she loved Jun Zechen even more than herself. She would feel sorry for him working day and night for the government, would be so nervous because of his illness, and even cared about his subtle changes in mood.

But Su Jingyao didn't feel bad, because these emotions made Su Jingyao feel more fulfilled, because Jun Zechen loved and cared about her more than she did about him.

Her love could not compare to the love Jun Zechen poured into her.

They accompany each other and make each other happy.

In the past, in modern times, Su Jingyao lacked both love and money.

But compared with love and money, she desires money more, and wants to live a good life even if she is alone.

So after traveling through time, she pursued power wholeheartedly and wanted to firmly grasp her own destiny in this era where imperial power was supreme, and she finally did it.

She became the most noble woman in the dynasty.

Jun Zechen's love was unexpected and also a great surprise.

Because of him, Su Jingyao truly felt happy.

Because of Jun Zechen's love, she became a person with a full heart and no longer lacking love. Because of Jun Zechen, Su Jingyao even learned how to love others.

But in this life, the man beside him is him and not him......

Su Jingyao's gaze fell on Jun Zechen again, feeling confused and conflicted.

She knew in her heart what had happened in this life, so she also understood that Jun Zechen liked her now, but this liking had never reached the level of deep love.

After all, he had been an emperor for decades in his previous life and had experienced countless power struggles and changing circumstances. His thoughts and state of mind had already changed greatly. It was not easy to truly touch his heart.

But Su Jingyao knew in her heart that if she wanted to make this man fall in love with her, it was not difficult, it was just a matter of time.

Su Jingyao knew exactly what kind of women Jun Zechen liked and what kind of personality he preferred.

But at this moment, Su Jingyao felt like there was a thorn in her heart.

The man beside her was not the lover in her memory. They were not the same person.

She also didn't want to be like she was in her first life, obsessed with power, pretending to be affectionate to him, even racking her brains to come up with strategies to make him feel distressed, and then engaging in intrigues with the women in his harem.

Watching him being intimate with another woman and giving birth to a child for him.

When Su Jingyao thought of this, she felt disgusted and annoyed.

Su Jingyao suppressed her inner discomfort and followed Jun Zechen into the hall.

Kunning Palace has been meticulously decorated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and at Jun Zechen's special instruction, many priceless treasures have been placed inside.

As the residence of the queen, this palace has always been very dignified and solemn, but Jun Zechen, knowing her preferences, ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to rearrange it.

The scene before our eyes at this moment is not only luxurious and exquisite, but also exudes elegance and even warmth everywhere.

Su Jingyao looked up and took in all this, with a faint smile on her face but a bit indifferent in her heart.

After entering the hall, Jun Zechen helped her sit down slowly, his movements extremely gentle.

Now that her belly is big, she can't stand for long.

"Like it?"

Jun Zechen was somewhat pleased with himself.

He had Ling Yue interrogated, and heard that in her previous life, the man did not immediately enthrone her as queen after he ascended the throne. In fact, a series of things happened that made her heartbroken before she ascended the throne of queen with great difficulty.

In this life, she has been pampered and protected by him since she entered the Eastern Palace. After he ascended the throne, she has been his one and only queen, and is now pregnant with their child.

Comparing the two, she should be more in love with him in this life, instead of dreaming about a person who no longer exists in this world.

Su Jingyao looked around, and could see every detail wherever her eyes went. This was all carefully arranged by Jun Zechen.

"I like it very much. Your Majesty has been keeping vigil for the late emperor these days, attending the coronation ceremony, and taking care of state affairs. You don't have to worry too much about me."

Su Jingyao's voice was gentle, but her eyes were serious.

Hearing this, Jun Zechen sat down next to her, a funny smile on his face, and looked at her tenderly.

"How come you've suddenly become more sensible and even feel sorry for me?"

There was a hint of teasing in Jun Zechen's tone.

Is it because I’ve become a mother that my personality has become gentler?

He still liked her spoiled and willful look, bright and energetic.

Su Jingyao leaned on him and raised her head slightly.

"If I am ignorant, I am afraid Your Majesty will not be able to bear it."

"Oh? Is there anything in this world that I cannot bear?"

Jun Zechen raised his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty has always known that I am jealous. When I was in the East Palace, Your Majesty kept it a secret from me that he favored other women. Wasn't it because he was afraid that I would make a scene?"

There was a hint of anger in Su Jingyao's tone.

"I'm just afraid that you'll be unhappy if you hear too much."

Helplessness flashed across Jun Zechen's eyes. He knew that she was possessive of him, just as he wanted to possess her completely.

But he is the emperor, and it is his unshirkable responsibility to continue the royal lineage, and his queen mother will never allow him to favor only one person.

Su Jingyao, who was leaning on Jun Zechen's shoulder, sneered in her heart, and a barely perceptible chill flashed across her eyes.

Even if he knew that she was unhappy, he would still do those things. To put it bluntly, she did not occupy an important position in his heart now.

But Su Jingyao could also understand that, just like when a man and a woman just start dating, they would never fall deeply in love instantly. It is as they continue to get to know each other that their feelings gradually heat up until they fall in love.

She closed her eyes slightly, trying to suppress the annoyance in her heart.

From Jun Zechen's current perspective, there is really no need for him to give up those concubines in the harem who are as delicate as flower buds just for a woman he just likes a little.

After all, he was the emperor, possessing supreme power and the responsibility to produce royal heirs and balance the forces of all parties.

It is even more impossible for him to give up his promise to the late emperor for the sake of her now.

For him, this promise had been kept for decades in his previous life, so how could he change it easily?

Perhaps as time goes by, and with Su Jingyao being as deliberate and scheming as she was in the first life, Jun Zechen will feel deeper and deeper for her, just like in the first life, and eventually love her deeply.

But...Su Jingyao has no such thoughts at all now.

She felt a little irritated.

Maybe she was indeed spoiled by Jun Zechen in her past two lives, so why should she go to such great lengths to win his favor in this life?

Moreover, the one she loved was not the one in front of her.

Thinking of this, Su Jingyao's eyes became increasingly dim, and her heart sank a little bit.

"Your Majesty knows that I am unhappy, so how do you plan to comfort me?"

Su Jingyao raised her head and looked at Jun Zechen coquettishly, but there was not much expectation in her eyes.

"I have crowned you as the Queen today, and you are still not happy?"

Su Jingyao didn't say anything. Her small hands nonchalantly played with Jun Zechen's ring, her lowered eyes revealing an indifference that was hard to conceal.

It was like a layer of ice, tightly wrapping her heart.

It's a pity that in this life, power no longer has any appeal to Su Jingyao, and she can choose to sit on the throne of queen or not.

Maybe it's true that after you get it, you no longer care about it.

Su Jingyao has stood at the pinnacle of power in this world for two lifetimes. The pinnacle of power had indeed made people obsessed and intoxicated.

But even if he stood up again, the person next to him was no longer the one he remembered.

If Su Jingyao wants to reach a high position in this life, she will feel unhappy during the process, and the ending does not seem so satisfactory either.

If that’s the case, what’s the point of being the queen?

Jun Zechen, if you can't even attract me with power in this life, what else do you have that's worth keeping me by your side?

Su Jingyao's eyes became increasingly dim.

"Why don't you speak?"

Jun Zechen pinched her little hand that was playing with his ring, trying to get her attention.

"Of course I am happy, but the position of Queen was clearly promised to me by His Majesty a long time ago, so how can this be considered coaxing?"

"Greedy, I'll give you whatever you want, how about that?"

Su Jingyao pulled the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled with pretended satisfaction, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Afterwards, she stopped flirting with Jun Zechen.

Maybe it would be nice to leave the palace and walk the same path and see the same scenery as she did in her second life, while Jun Zechen doesn't like her that much now, and live her life leisurely and comfortably.

Why go through the same path you walked in your first life again?

Let Jun Zechen continue to return to the path without her in this life, and be a perfect emperor with three palaces and six courtyards and many wives and concubines, which have nothing to do with her.

However, she had to think of a way to leave the palace quietly, and even eliminate the biggest threat to Xingxing and the Su family before leaving the palace.

——Ye family.

Only in this way can she leave with peace of mind.
