Chapter 154 Be filial
Emperor Tiansheng looked at the woman crying with joy in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart. He smiled slightly and said earnestly: "My child, do you know what the Queen Mother means to our royal family? She is not only my mother, but also the spiritual pillar of the entire country. So, you must be filial to the Queen Mother, understand?" Wanyin lowered her eyebrows and replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will keep it in mind. I will do my best to serve the Royal Grandmother and repay the Royal Grace." After speaking, she raised her head with a determined light in her eyes.
Emperor Tiansheng nodded with satisfaction and said softly, "That's great. Then you can leave first." After receiving the order, Wanyin slowly left the emperor's bedroom and walked back to her own palace with light steps. Along the way, she was full of thoughts, but she always kept a dignified smile on her face.
However, as soon as she returned to her own palace, Wanyin immediately took off all her disguises. Her aunt Fang had been waiting for a long time. Seeing her niece's red and swollen eyes and tear-stained face, she couldn't help but feel nervous. She hurried forward and asked with concern: "Ashi, what happened? Tell me quickly, did someone dare to bully you? Who is so bold and reckless?"
Faced with her aunt's rapid-fire questions, Wanyin was unable to respond. She just shook her head tiredly and whispered, "It's nothing serious, aunt, don't worry. It's just that today's events have made me a little tired, and I want to take a rest." After that, she turned and walked into the bedroom, fell headfirst on the bed, covered her head with the quilt, and vented her inner pain and sorrow.
At this moment, Wanyin could no longer suppress her emotions, and tears flowed out like a broken dam. She covered her mouth tightly, fearing that her crying would alarm others. In this quiet bedroom, only her weak sobs seemed to be telling of endless sorrow and pain... Seeing this, Fang felt distressed. She gently patted Wanyin's shoulder and comforted her: "Ashi, cry if you want to. It will be uncomfortable if you hold it in." Wanyin could no longer control her emotions and burst into tears.
After Wanyin calmed down, Fang sat down beside the bed and asked softly, "Ah Shi, what happened to make you so sad? Tell your aunt!" Wanyin wiped away the tears from her eyes silently, and told Fang about her experience in the emperor's bedroom with a choked voice. Fang listened carefully, frowned, and fell into deep thought.
After Wanyin finished speaking, Fang was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Ashi, the status of the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo is extremely noble, and he is a perfect match for you. This marriage is indeed a good match for you, but you look like this now... Could it be that you are not satisfied with this marriage?" Faced with Fang's questioning, Wanyin was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
After all, just a year ago, she was just a poor person who was bullied and helpless. If she hadn't relied on her own wisdom and cleverly borrowed the power of the Queen Mother, she would not be able to live a stable life now. However, how could she easily tell Fang about these things?
Thinking of this, Wanyin felt even more sad, and tears welled up again. She knew that everything she had now was hard-earned, but she also knew that there might be countless unknown risks and challenges behind this marriage. At this moment, she was really unsure whether she should accept this seemingly perfect marriage.
Wanyin bit her lips tightly, trying to keep her voice calm, and then she uttered a few words to Fang: "Aunt, I don't have too many special feelings about this marriage. What really worries me is that if I marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, it means I will have to leave this familiar palace and lose everything I have now. You also know that although life in the palace seems glorious and enviable, there are countless intrigues and deceptions hidden behind it, which makes me feel extremely scared. When I think about the possibility of facing such a complicated situation in the future, I am really at a loss..."
