Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

After the emperor made his decision, he left. He seemed to be in a much more hurried pace than when he came. He must have been talking here and delayed other matters.

Feeling helpless, Liu Rusi pulled her son to his feet.

The emperor said he would not force anyone to do anything, but he was doing so!

How could it be her responsibility whether Chu Shiyu had a child or not? How could she guarantee that Chu Shiyu would have a child within three years? !

The emperor only set a condition for changing the surname! He still did not give up on dragging Qin Hao into the whirlpool!

They are indeed father and son. Just like Chu Shiyu, if persuasion doesn’t work, are they going to use force?

"Mom, I don't really understand..."

Qin Hao was still inexperienced after all, and he didn’t understand a lot of the conversation just now... He only knew that his mother was persisting for his future.

Liu Rusi didn't know how to explain the cruelty of it for a moment, sacrificing the lives of several children to achieve the future of Daxia...

Survival of the fittest, the strongest will become emperor. If the emperor had not intended to sacrifice Qin Hao, Liu Rusi might have thought that the emperor was ahead of his time...

"Because you are very smart, the emperor believes that you can play an important role in the future. Mother does not think this is the best option, but the emperor is determined and cannot be persuaded with words."

Liu Rusi was not arrogant enough to shake the emperor's will, but Qin Hao was her bottom line and she had to fight for him.

She was already surprised by the ridiculous order that could be changed to "have a child in three years"...

Crouching down, Liu Rusi looked at her child seriously: "But remember, no matter what happens in the future, your intelligence is not a disaster, nor is it a mistake, but a gift from God! You never need to question or deny your own existence!"

Little Qin Hao hadn't thought about that yet. When his mother said that, he responded as a matter of course: "Being smart is definitely not wrong. If being smart leads to mistakes, it must be because you are using your smartness for the wrong things!"

Liu Rusi smiled and nodded, "That's right, just like a sharp knife, you can choose to use it to hurt people or protect people, it shouldn't be blamed on the knife being too sharp."

After thinking for a while, Xiao Qinhao said seriously: "Mom, I also think I can play a very important role."

Liu Rusi was stunned, looked at Qin Hao in confusion and asked, "Do you want to change your last name?"

Little Qin Hao shook his head: "I won't feel bad if I keep the last name Qin, but if I change it to Chu, I will definitely feel guilty towards my father, so why should I change it?"

"Since I can't convince the Emperor with words, I'll prove it with facts! For example, I will aspire to become the most knowledgeable person in the world! When I grow up, I will strive to become a tutor and teach the princes! Wouldn't this also play an important role?"

Qin Hao was very sorry that he could not let the Taifu teach him, but he believed that he could still become a pillar of the country! Even better than the current Taifu!

Little Qin Hao held his head high and chest puffed out, his true pride revealed!

"Hahaha."

Liu Rusi couldn't help but laugh out loud. Little Qin Hao's confident and sunny look was what she wanted to protect.

If Liu Rusi gained anything from being reborn in this world, it was Qin Lie who made her feel that a real home is a harbor without conditions. And little Qin Hao was the return of her obsession. You see, a child who is loved will be very happy and brave.

...

The emperor issued an instruction that all ministers and noble ladies could leave the palace early tomorrow morning.

On the last night, the princess tossed and turned for a long time, sighed softly, sat up, and said, "I haven't been there for twenty years... Let's go and have a look... "

In the imperial palace, the solemn Taimiao stands quietly.

Twenty years seems too short. The Taimiao is still the same, neither new nor old.

Only the temple priests and priests guarding outside the temple have changed a lot...

After the head temple keeper recognized the eldest princess, he immediately led everyone to pay their respects: "This subordinate greets the eldest princess."

The princess nodded calmly, staring at the closed gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple... If there were no royal family members worshipping inside, the gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple should be open day and night, implying that the ancestors are always welcome to return...

The temple keeper said with some difficulty: "Your Highness, women cannot enter the Imperial Temple."

"Humph! Just tell me straight away if your royal brother is in there! What are you talking about men and women? I have never followed this rule since I was a child!"

After the princess scolded him, she ordered directly: "Go in and ask if I can come in. If not, I will not come here again in the future!"

The temple keeper didn't want to disturb the emperor and wanted to say more, but when he saw the eldest princess's cold eyes, he fell silent again!

If he angered the princess, the emperor might not necessarily protect him. He might even punish him to appease the princess's anger... By comparison, going in and asking a question would be less risky...

Soon, the gate of the Taimiao opened for a few breaths, and a middle-aged woman in noble clothes strode into the temple.

There were many more eternal lamps in the hall than before, but Chu Wei didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that it was even darker here...

The middle-aged man kneeling on the mat heard the footsteps, stood up steadily, and turned to look at the person approaching.

"I thought my sister had become more stable over the years, but I didn't expect she was still as passionate as ever."

Chu Wei snorted and laughed: "Compared to you who remain the same as always, I have changed. I am not as naive as I was when I was young."

Chu Tianming turned his head to look at the tablet and said calmly: "It's good as long as your original intention has not changed."

Chu Wei did not comment. She and Chu Tianming shared the same beliefs, and she was willing to obey and cooperate. This was the foundation of their coexistence. Otherwise, even with the Qin family army, Chu Tianming would not show mercy.

Looking at the abrupt golden statue standing on the left side of the hall, the princess couldn't help but chuckle, "Yu'er is really perfunctory. Not only did she design the pattern of her clothes, she didn't even let anyone carve her face."

Chu Tianming also looked at the golden statue, chuckled and shook his head, saying: "The appearance is fine, but the crown and clothes... the offerings should be perfect. I will have someone carve and complete them."

The princess paused, then realized that Chu Tianming wanted this golden statue to represent emperors of all dynasties, not just him.

"Yu'er understands your thoughts."

Chu Tianming smiled faintly and said, "The closer you are to nature, the clearer you can see. He is making great progress. Although he has some flaws, he has not forgotten his roots. Once the flaws are smoothed out, he may be able to surpass his predecessor."

Chu Wei was startled. She knew that the flaw Chu Tianming was talking about was Liu... But she saw how deeply Chu Shiyu loved her. She was still in pain when the real "stubborn dirt" of Daxia was removed...

"If the position is just right...the so-called flaw might be the finishing touch?" Chu Wei said softly.

"A flaw is a flaw. If it is placed in a high position, it will become a weakness that is noticed by others..."

The emperor turned to look at Chu Wei: "My sister is still too kind. She adopted Liu as her adopted daughter. Isn't it to prevent her from being exploited by outsiders?"

"But it is better to be safe once and for all than to be on guard a thousand times."

Chu Wei opened her lips slightly. She could never learn Chu Tianming's ruthlessness...

Chu Tianming turned back and looked at the tablet that belonged to their father, and said calmly: "No hurry, it's still early."

"It is even more unpleasant to lose a delicious meal before you eat it. If you eat too much, you may get tired of it."

...

There were carriages and horses like a dragon in front of the palace.

The high-ranking officials and nobles who had been imprisoned in the palace for several days were able to see the light of day outside the palace again. They all showed joy on their faces, said goodbye to each other one after another, and set out on their journey home.

When Liu Rusi walked out of the palace, she felt as if she was in another world.

In just five days, from entering the palace to leaving, she felt like she had escaped from a cage. She just didn't know whether this cage was Chu Shiyu's bondage or a vortex of intrigue...

But whatever it was, she could be at ease for a while.

"Rusi, since Brother Duan Wang is not here, no one will take care of you. Come to the Princess's Mansion to play with me when you have time!"

Changning held Liu Rusi's hand reluctantly, and they became even closer in the past few days!

Chang Ning felt that Liu Rusi was simply a flower of eloquence! She made people feel comfortable and relaxed when she spoke, neither trying to please nor making people feel uncomfortable! She was also refreshed from time to time!

"Zhen'er, go back." The eldest princess passed by.

Chang Ning immediately walked towards that place, repeating to Liu Rusi: "See you another day."

"Goodbye." Liu Rusi also said goodbye with a smile.

The smile faded as the princess and her daughter's carriage moved away, but soon it returned to normal, and she turned to her son and the girls and said, "Let's go home."
