The Emperor Luo Qingyue had always known that Zheng Qingluo was an intelligent person, but she could think of so much for Zou Rou at this moment, which made Luo Qingyue jealous. After all, such a caring person would always make people feel like they were being pampered.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you a good news. Qingluo is about to give birth, and when brother Luo San came over, Qingluo had just started feeling pain, I wonder if she has it now?"
Thinking about Luo San's panic when he left, Zi Rou suddenly became flustered as well, "Tell me, will Qing Luo be okay?"
Zi Rou more or less knew about what happened to Yu Er the last time they met in Qingluo City. Luo Qingyue did not dare to explain in detail to her as he was afraid that she would worry about it.
"Is Qingluo about to give birth? This is good news, I will send someone to the Prince Yi's Mansion later to find out more information, and you will definitely be the first one to find out about it. "
"Don't worry, Mister Lin has always lived in Qing Luo Manor. There are also Luo San and the others who have been keeping watch there, so nothing will happen."
Luo Qingyue pulled Wang Zirou who was about to get up, and pushed him back into her embrace, "You have two bodies now, you should pay more attention to your own. I have everything else to do, so you don't have to worry."
After bending over, Luo Qingyue picked Zi Rou up and placed her on the bed. He helped her cover herself with the blanket and leaned her back against the bed.
"Since you've already ordered a charcoal brazier, why don't you go to bed and warm up?" Zi Rou glanced at the charcoal brazier in the corner of the room that was almost completely burnt down. Only half of it was still burning red.
I feel a little cold, but I'm not too cold yet. This, I just got someone to order a charcoal brazier to smoke in the room. I only burned three or five charcoal.
Luo Qingyue pressed his fingers against Zi Rou's lips, "I will just ask, look at how much you have explained, if you want to use it, you can use it. Don't tell me that I can't afford to supply my own wife with charcoal?"
"I knew that you were the best to me. Even at home, I didn't let you go so easily."
"As long as I'm here, you can do whatever you want. Who would dare to say anything bad about it?"
Zi Rou's stomach had swelled up a lot, and she was firmly leaning on Luo Qingyue's leg. He felt happy about this moment, because the place that gave birth to his own child and the woman that gave birth to him was his most beloved girl, this kind of feeling was really satisfying.
Luo Qingyue stroked the hair on the side of her head and said gently, "Your stomach is no longer small. You need to be careful in the future, this is our first child."
"I just don't know if it's a boy or a girl. The imperial physician told me the other day that you could use your meridians to build a stomach of a man or a woman."
"I told him that as long as we can find out that both the adult and the child are healthy, we don't have to worry about anything else. Rou Er, I just want you and the child to be healthy. There's no relationship between a man and a woman."
Zi Rou held Luo Qingyue tightly. She knew that Luo Qingyue was trying to comfort her because he was afraid that she would be burdened, but at the same time, she also knew that this man truly loved her. This made her heart feel at ease.
"I know, I will give birth to him, and he will definitely be healthy and lively. I want to protect our child and raise him little by little. My heart feels like it's going to jump out of my chest. I really want to meet him right now."
Luo Qingyue caressed Zi Rou's cheeks and smiled. This was his wife.
"I have to prepare some good stuff. After Qing Luo's birth, I have to reward her well. Considering my family's ZiRou, no matter what, I can't let her down."
He had to return the favor to his wife, and he also had to let her know that he had to protect her the same way.
"Yes, I need to prepare some things for Qingluo. The herbs, clothes and other materials I need cannot be missing." Hearing that Zi Rou only said something practical, Luo Qingyue couldn't help but feel moved.
Had this girl never had any ambitions or greed before? She had never made any requests from him before, and when Qingluo sent him money, he made her feel that it was too much.
He wanted to give Qingluo some things. Why didn't she ask him for some silver taels? She was just worried that Qingluo's days would be short.
However, it was also because of Zi Rou's lack of desire that made the Emperor, Luo Qingyue, want to tie her down by his side. Only when such a person sat in that position could he truly think for her.
Because in her heart, she was the only one who didn't want to make things difficult for herself the most, she would absolutely not have any thoughts of making things difficult for herself.
"Zi Rou, just stay by my side and live the life you want. Although you can't do whatever you want now that you're out of Zhao Yang Hall, I won't let you wait for too long."
Zi Rou's heart beat rapidly. She then raised her head abruptly. "I've told you already. Let's not talk about this for now. How long have I been in the palace?"
"The most important thing right now is to properly nourish the one in my stomach. I won't think about anything else, so don't be too anxious, the days are still long."
"Who knows who's suitable? My temper really isn't suitable. I have to find someone who can truly support you. My ability is still too lacking."
"If I can't help you with those big matters, I might bring you trouble instead. Therefore, I just want to be safe and guard you. Being this close to you is already very satisfying."
Luo Qingyue laid down on the ground, so that his eyes could meet Zi Rou's gaze. Looking at those two clear eyes, he knew that what she said was the truth.
Because he knew how conflicted she had been about entering the palace. If it wasn't for him in her heart, she probably wouldn't even want to enter the palace, much less miss that position.
"You silly girl, everyone else had their heads cut off wanting to sit in the seat beside me, but you were the only one who had never felt how seductive that seat was."
"Nope." Zi Rou nodded. "If you trade that seat with me, I definitely won't trade." Luo Qingyue laughed unrestrainedly, these words made him extremely happy.
The little girl's intention was very clear. As long as he could continue to treat her like this, she would give up everything. Even if it was the position below one person, she would still look down on him.
"Zi Rou, getting you is what I am most proud of in my life. I am even more satisfied with my position as emperor than I am with you. You don't even know how precious you are."
Hearing Luo Qingyue address himself as "I", Ziya Rou knew that Luo Qingyue's words were extremely serious, and that his small chest had melted instantly. To have such feelings for her, was something that she didn't even dare to think about before entering the palace.
The person in front of him was the Emperor. The Emperor's three palaces and six courtyards were chosen according to his wishes. But now, he only valued and cherished him; everything he had done was worth it.
Even if one day he fell in love with someone else, she thought, she would still be satisfied. Because at this moment, the Emperor's heart was real, his embrace was real, and so was his promise.
At this moment, he was not lying to himself. He really held himself in his hands, saying that he was the most precious. Zi Rou was so excited that she wanted to scream and tell him, "That's good, that's good."
"You." The Emperor Luo Qingyue pinched the tip of Zi Rou's nose, "I never knew your own good, I just kept feeling that I had enough."
"Actually, you never would have thought that in a harem like that, you would not be tolerated to be too weak. I would protect you, but because I protected you more, there would be more people who would pay attention to you, and also more people who would want to harm you."
Afraid of scaring others, he had no choice but to reason with her, "Sometimes, my favors are the double-edged sword. On one hand, it's good for you. On the other hand, it might be due to the harm it causes."
"You need to learn how to become stronger, not for yourself, but for me and our children. Only by becoming stronger can you better protect your child, protect yourself, and be with me more freely."
Looking at Zi Rou's gradually widening eyes, Luo Qingyue felt that he was being cruel. However, he had to steeled his heart, as he didn't want to regret it when he lost her.
At the very least, you have to learn to know the dangers. Bai Dezi has already helped you solve four or five times, yet you didn't feel a single thing.
"If there's a mistake, what if there's a mistake? You cannot retaliate when others have forced you into a corner. At that time, you would have nowhere to retreat to, but you would also have nowhere to go. "
"You have to let out your aura when you are free to advance or retreat," he said. The emperor kissed Zi Rou on her red lips. The softness of her kiss captivated him.
When he thought of the day when he would lose her, the pain in his chest made him suffocate. When he thought of those times of danger, even the Emperor felt a lingering fear.
"Zi Rou, Qing Luo gave you the banknotes. She told you not to live in her small circle, you can't stay in Zhao Yang Hall and not come out. That's unrealistic."
"You want to expand your circle so that more people will know about you and stand on your side. That's not something I can help you with."
"The meaning behind Qingluo's gift is obvious. She wants you to take the money and make connections in this harem. Even if you don't want to take that position, you have to have the ability to protect yourself."
"In the imperial harem, there are people you can trust. They are people who you can either use money, power, or righteousness to bribe to make them useful to you. What I can give you is the greatest of freedoms.
