As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

"Just follow Yueyue's name, Tuan'er, it's festive and approachable." Ning Rushong agreed. Letting He Yue take a nickname was just to please her.

Hui Qing retreated silently, and after the pearl curtain closed lightly, she dimly saw the emperor and the empress leaning against each other, their slightly drooping faces almost touching each other, and their whispering posture was extremely tender.

She felt somewhat fortunate and comforted in her heart. Fortunately, His Majesty was sincere to the Queen. Huiqing saw clearly that His Majesty's phoenix eyes, as cold as cold jade, were filled with charming love.

The little princess was quiet for a while and then started crying. It seemed that she was hungry. The wet nurse came running over after hearing the sound, and He Yue asked her to take the little princess down to feed her.

When there was no one else in the pavilion, He Yue placed her hand on Ning Rusong's palm and asked him after a moment's consideration, "Chi Jue, do you still remember what you promised me?"

He Yue raised her eyes to look at him. Her unmade-up face was fair and elegant in the sunlight. Perhaps because she had been in the palace for too long, she had a sense of ease and composure.

Ning Rusong did not play it safe. He closed his palms and held them with an appropriate force. "As our eldest daughter, she is destined to be in a high position and inherit everything from me. I will make her the Crown Princess."

The young emperor and He Yue looked into each other's eyes. He spoke slowly, with a natural arrogance and pride, "Yueyue, don't care about her gender. She has royal blood, so she is destined not to be timid and ordinary."

Ning Rushong is the one who controls the secular rules, so he is also the one who cares the least about them. He is fanatically indifferent to everyone, so gender is not important.

It was enough that Tuan'er was born by He Yue! She was the root to which He Yue returned, the bloodline between him and He Yue.

He Yue was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "I don't care about Tuan'er's gender. As her mother, I hope she will have a better future. It's just... I'm afraid that if the position of Crown Princess is decided too early, someone will harm her!"

Ning Rushong, in turn, advised her that as a modern person she should not care about gender, which made her feel ashamed. She did not care about gender, but was clearly worried about her daughter's safety.

Once the Crown Princess is established, Tuan'er will really become the target of public criticism. Countless pairs of eyes will stare at her all the time, planning to tear a piece of flesh from her!

Perhaps it was because she had a deep stereotype of Ning Rushong, she originally thought that what Ning Rushong said at the beginning was to deceive her, but she never thought it was actually true!

He Yue's eyes wandered over him, it was as if she was seeing him for the first time. When she peeled away all the confusing surfaces, she found that he was indeed a completely different person from others, transcending the deep-rooted prejudices of the times.

Ning Rushong leaned down, held her with one hand, held her hand with the other, and explained the ins and outs to her in detail.

The emperor's words were not majestic and profound; instead, they were just the gentle and warm words that a king uses to teach his wife.

"Yueyue, if you don't give the position of Crown Princess to Tuan'er soon, it will only bring endless troubles. The court officials will keep testing you, trying to make me reopen the selection. I promised you that I would not have second thoughts. To me, body and mind are inseparable. I will not want others, so they will not succeed."

"Then the court officials will set their sights on you, hoping that you will give birth to another prince. Since you are not in good health, I will never let you give birth to another prince."

"After such a long battle, both sides will be exhausted and anxious. Finally, they have only one trick left, which is to petition me to agree to adopt the child!" Ning Rushong's tone was lofty and disdainful when he mentioned 'adoption'.

He finally put the result in front of He Yue, "Tuan'er will have a harder time then. It would be more decisive and clear to lay it out in front of them now."

He Yue carefully considered every word Ning Rusong said. She was naturally not as adept at the art of ruling as he was. "Then let's do as you say, Chijue."

"You have to protect Tuan'er." He Yue was still a little worried. Such a small Tuanzi would immediately become the center of the vortex of imperial power.

Ning Rusong promised her, "I will take care of everything, Yueyue just needs to be at ease."

…………

Three days later, it was time for the baby's bath. The eldest princess' bathing ceremony was held in a grand manner. Not only the women in the harem but even the court officials were present.

The banquet was held in the Changxin Hall of the East Palace, which was the palace where Ning Rushong lived when he was the crown prince. His thoughts were already clear.

It should have been a joyous day, but the court officials were all smiling bitterly, unable to act sincere.

What the hell! At the court meeting two days ago, His Majesty said that he wanted to make the eldest princess the crown princess. The fiery ministers banged their heads against the pillars one after another, and blood was spilled all over the ground, but His Majesty didn't seem to have the slightest intention of coming back! "A hen crows at dawn! How can the dynasty last long! Your Majesty should not lose sight of the Queen, and should recruit more concubines and give birth to more heirs!"

The emperor was undoubtedly a ruthless man, and his cold voice made people shudder. "I have made up my mind. There are princesses in the history books, and there are empresses. My princess will not be inferior to them!"

The rebellious courtiers were demoted, punished, and quite a few even lost their lives. The scene was as turbulent and bloody as when Your Majesty first ascended the throne!

Because of the tragedy that happened earlier, the remaining court officials were too sad to say a word, and they were protesting in their hearts that the Crown Princess and the Empress in the history books were the same person, a rare example in history, so how could they be compared?

But the tip of a knife was hanging over their heads, so they could only agree for now. Let her be the crown princess, and see if she can have the demeanor of the current emperor in the future. That seat is not something that ordinary people can sit on!
